[Q] Replacing Orange DHD Nand to Vodafone DHD Nand - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello again
short story
unlocked my bootloader via htc dev, tried every effort but couldnt install recovery on it.
its on 3.13.161.5 and the hboot is .0027
i somehow relock its bootloader thinking to unlock again and then proceed with root privilidge via ahc but failed
each time i tried to push via adb, it comes with err: verifying signature failed etc
cant flash cwm or any other via fastboot
i have nand of my other dhd (on orange)
can i use the nand( of orange) to revert back to stock and then unlock bootloader and flash recovery...?
or
how do i upgrade to .0029 from .0027 Hboot
Simple question but i cant find answer, may be mixed with things, just need some direction to point out...!

I think you mean downgrade. I don't think you can downgrade you hboot. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I mean back to stock without facing issues with bootloader unlocked
Or if I can upgrade my bootloader
My concern is to flash Rom
The mistake u made causing all this mess is I choose relocked option from ahkit
But it does not shows any on screen message to select relock
However my observation is its only a single thing I am missing
After relock I tried to unlock but err failed message
Can fastboot flash recovery either
And additionally can't proceed with anything other then receiving error signature failed
Some one please direct me towards right direction.....

I don't get what you are trying to do, but if are already unlocked I don't get how you still have 0027 hboot version. Use the links in my signature to find out what the procedure is...

please have a look
also my software build is the higher one(3.13.161.5) i cant find any update at htc developers web
however as i mentioned before you can clearly see the one in attached image
unlocked one is the one i asked you last time to fastboot flash boot image it was originally on orange but left one is on vodafone uk
thanks

I still don't get what you are trying to do. Have you tried one on my tools?? AceRoot or Unlock Tool?

yes i tried both of them
got error while generating unlock bin.
i tried to use the old unlock bin which i generated when i unlocked it via htc developers web (putting in unlock folder)
tried to install via htc developers as well
no luck in root tool, easy unlock tool, ahc tool
i cant understand why this erorr comes every time

Seems that your build version is not supported to update the hboot. You need to create a goldcard and flash a supported RUU first.

I have xtc clip with me
Gold card will be done but which correct ruu...? :banghead:

This is a question. Y u no post in questions forum?

i cant find anything in Q&A about HBOOT-1.03.0003
i have tried UnrEVOked 3.32.
i know someone will flame me for asking this, i expected it... if u havent noticed i been with this forum since 2007, and i do know how to use Q&A and i would not be asking a question if it was a simple matter...
unless u can point me to the right tool or guide for HBOOT-1.03.0003 with S-ON, u can save flaming to yourself
Sorry to bring you a bit of bad news... the official HTC S-OFF is a real *****! There's no patch for HBOOT-1.03.0003 out there yet and I don't know if there will ever be one. You can try writing to the guys doing Revolutionary (i.e. Alpharev and Unrevoked) and see if they plan on patching this new HBOOT version.

Yeah, if he has one. IIRC goldcard was only an instrument in rooting branded phones? The error code would mention incorrect CID or something like that.
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
Goldcard didnt work, it says somthing like no image or wrong image after a bar on right hand side goes up....
also quick question is Reversing CID from CMD is just like 12a456 to 654a21 or is it something else, coz http://hexrev.soaa.me/ gives me some other result.
aka my CID from cmd is
1e41425553442xxxx0058003fd00a5f6 so reverse shuld be
6f5a00df3008500xxxx24435552414e1
and then replace first too with 00
but that site gives me 00a500fd038005xxxx2044535542411e
im a litttle confused :s
and just to be clear i now have UNlocked Bootloader (officeal by HTC) what tools are compatible with that for me to be able to flash ?
Use yours just be careful, triple check everything you doing
Btw... All tools are up to hboot 1.02, unlocked bootloader is not s-off

How to unlock hboot or S-OFF my branded WFS ?

Hi there !
I would like to S-OFF or unlock bootloader of my Orange FR branded WFS. HTCdevs method does note seem to work, ROM or bootloader is too wreid and not supported by official orange hboot updater from htcdevs. After some tricks (goldcard I guess), I succeed in installing "Europe hboot" from htcdevs, but it doesn't help in any way : fastboot oem command returns an error 1, command error . Hboot might be too old to know these commands.
By searching on XDA, I found a tool called temproot that allows me to root the phone until I reboot it.
my HBoot version is 0.90.0000 and radio 7.53.39.03M.
MARVEL PVT SHIP S-ON RL.
HTC drivers, andro SDK, Java, debuging mode,... are probably ok. I use Windows 7x64 and Linux Mint.
I think I said everything. If you want more details or explainations, I'll do my best to answer preciselly, even if I'm a noob .
Thanks !

The unlockable European HBOOT is version 1.08.0099, so I take this to mean that you successfully updated to a generic EU HBOOT (0.90.0000) which is not unlockable, but can be updated to 1.08.0099. Thus,

So you need to go back to htcdev and update your HBOOT to the unlockable one. When you do, HBOOT will show:
*** LOCKED (OOW) ***

Thanks for (very) fast answer and making me realize that I successfuly downgraded my HBoot (that's what I was searching to do).
I believed that it should allow me to upgrade with unlockable HBoot too, but I forgot to say that when I try to update HBOOT the way htcdev tells using their HTC_EU-1.09.0099 / ORANGE_FR-1.09.0099 / Any 1.08.0099 HBoot, I get an error 191, my ROM is NOT up to date. I have no ROM update possible with my f****** provider custom ROM. Is it possible to change this ROM to the official HTC ROM (using my temp rooting and adb shell or I don't know what), so that I can get last updates, flash HBoot with HTC_EU-1.09.0099 and get custom ROM (such as CM7.2) ?
Or I am thinking wrong on the way it works (probably the case : I learned everything alone) ?
Edit : I believe that this would have worked, if the given link weren't dead.......... Uploading website are all closed. That's a shame.
Thank you,
KennyG9
Try this:
1. Run the RUU...exe for updating the HBOOT again but don't try to update. Instead, find the temporary folder it created to extract the files needed for the install. It will look something like C:\Users\[LoginName]\AppData\Local\Temp\{82B23FCD-D5D0-45CA-A3A2-5350D3926551}.
2. In one of the subfolders, find rom_02.zip from and copy it to another location on your hard drive. Rename it PG76IMG.zip. You can close the RUU wizard now.
3. Move PG76IMG.zip to the root folder of your Goldcard.
4. Boot the phone into HBOOT (turn it off, pull the battery for 5 sec. and replace it, hold down volume and press the power button). Once in HBOOT, the phone will find PG76IMG.zip and try to install it. Follow the directions on the screen.
5. Do a factory reset and reboot.

For interested people, you can get rom_01.zip and rom_02.zip. It corresponds to PG7610000_Marvel_hboot_1.09.0099_0209_R.exe file. (Orange FR 2.14.73.1 PG7610000)

software s-off????
After spending 3 days trying to upgrade my hboot so i could unlock my bootloader, i somehow ended up with s-off! here are the steps i followed.
1) try updates from htcdev - didnt work
2) made goldcard, tried updates - didnt work
3) gained temp root using adb and zergrush, worked
4) hex edited the rom version number - didnt work
5) placed rom_2 on sd card - worked, sort of, updated the radio, but not the bootloader, "cannot rollback hboot"
6) placed rom_1 on sd card -worked, updated the radio
7) went into hboot to try to flash rom_2 again, voila! s-off!!!!
dont ask me if this is a way to s-off devices without xtc clip, all i know is it is what has worked for me, so i thought i would share.

Guess that's the last resort before i totally give up on that phone.
Here's my situation:
can't seem to unlock my bootloader using Htcdev method whatsoever.
When i type fastboot oem get_identifier_token, i always get:
(Bootloader) [ERR] Command error !!!
From what i have heard and guessed, it means my Hboot is not up-to-date.
(I was stock 2.3.3 btw)
Tried to flash some roms from the "Shipped Marvel roms collection" thread, and i get all sort of errors during the update, basically that the rom is older than mine.
I then resorted to that thread:
"[HBOOT] HBOOT update for EU users who's having problem with RUU":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1432474
It worked...except it only updated the radio, not the Hboot... for the hboot part is only says "bypass", and then offer me to reboot the phone.
I also created a goldcard at some point.
While i can see its virtues, It did absolutely nothing for me.
Of course, i've been reading a lot of threads with problems simillar to mine, but didn't get any working solution out of it.
Here i am, and i sincerely hope someone can help me, because it's one good little phone, i like it, but we all know a device you can't root is a device you can't do much with, sadly.
Thanks a lot for the help!
You have not updated your bootloader to either 1.08.0099 or 1.09.0099 which are HTCdev unlockable.

have you tried to take the hboot from a htcdev ruu, making a pg**img.zip with it inside and an androidinfo.txt and boot to bootloader to see if it will update? i cannot see why it wont, it shouldnt affect your rom (which will be carrier related) and IS htc signed. you might just get away from with ^^ after that, if it works use simonsimons unlock tool
Thanks Gloris and Heavy_Metal_Man, i'll try both, see how it turns out and report the results.
Didn't work.
To hell with this phone, i've been wasting to much time on this, that's the first time i have so much trouble unlocking/rooting a phone.
I'm done with HTC i believe, that locked bootloader really is a cheap shot from them.
Anyway, thanks a lot for the help, guys.

[Q] I need to go back to stock ROM but have no idea how

Hello all. I am a complete novice at Android phones. I have a Desire HD which I bought from a friend about 18 months ago who had installed CyanogenMod on the phone. I am now moving to Giffgaff and need to unlock the phone. I got an unlock code based on the IMEI and when I enter it, despite it saying network lock successful, the sim continues as unregistered and each time I reset the phone it asks me for the Network Unlock code again. I am told it is because of Cyanogen and I need to go back to the start.
Here is all the info I have:
Android Version : 2.3.7
Kernel Version : [email protected] #1
Mod Version : CyanogenMod 7.1.0-DesireHD
Build Number: GWK74
I have tried to follow a number of guides on this site but something always goes wrong and if I am honest I don't really get what I'm doing. I downloaded an .exe from StockRoms and that looked like it was going well but then died at the end with no specific errors.
Can anybody point me in the right directions as to how to achieve this?
Thanks!

Am guessing this means I am not S-OFF?
I did see this screen before when I tried to use the Simlock feature. It says this when runs:

Open CID file fail
Process done, reboot device?
Of course the process is not done.

With an unlocked bootloader you won't be able to flash a RUU. Besides you need a RUU for your device and not any RUU. If not, you will need a goldcard.

Is it possible to lock my bootloader? Is that a stupid question?
I have found the "right" RUU here:

Yes, it is possible to lock your bootloader. S-Off is no longer available; AAHK, the tool to get it, was retired this morning.
Thanks all, I sense that this could be tricky overall.
Perhaps a different approach is needed - is there another way to Sim Unlock the phone?

Mate check your RUU version and find the similar one in the htcdev site or let you tell me the information about your device,the way i mentioned and i will link the required ruu.
P.S: XDA community is useless for old devices(My experience is really bad.I discovered everything on my own).
