[Q] HTC desire Z stuck in booting after downgrade attempt

Hello,
I have a phone that is now stuck at white screen with green htc logo after an attempt to downgrade following this guide :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178912
However i had already downloaded a PC10IMG.zip with this tool :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1521019
I first tried using the tool, but it always failed. It seemed to me the script failed on getting temproot. (I then manually downloaded the PC10IMG.zip in the .bat file just incase it was a problem with the wget it uses or something)
After that i followed the guide instead and gained temproot, changed version and gaining supercid through the goldcard method.
I then tried downgrading using the manual method using the PC10IMG.zip mentioned above (Its alot smaller than the ones mentioned in the guide. I have a suspicion it is for another phone perhaps). Bootloader recognized it and started "upgrade" process as expected. After it worked with that for a while it rebooted and since then I have been stuck on the white/green splash screen on normal boots.
I can still get into Hboot, but I cant do anything there. Nothing seems to work there. Neither volume +/-, trackpad nor powerbutton does anything.
I can also get into fastboot. This seems to work better, but when i try to flash the image then it just gives me :
D:\platform>fastboot-windows flash zip StockRom.zip
sending 'zip' (291447 KB)... FAILED (remote: 02 data length is too large)
HBOOT screen shows me the following:
VISION PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.82.0008
MICROP-0425
RADIO-26.08.04.30_M3
I havent tried altering the contents of my SD card in fear of making things even worse.
Any tips/tricks/hint would be greatly appreciated!

Got some rather excellent help from #g2root to fix this today.
My main problem was that I had flashed the wrong img and that my Golden SD was not working correctly. Got that sorted out by using another SD and made it golden in another device.
Then proceeded to upgrade it to the newest g2 software (since that was what i had tried to do in the first place. Namely using the g2 img in a Desire Z device), downgrade it, rooted it and installed the necessary tools to get Andromadus running
Thanks to pierre_ja, skorgon, Uni_Ced and Catherall for the patience, moral support and excellent help! The amount of handholding from pierre_ja was astonishing

G2 img
Can i ask where you obtained the G2.img file, I am in a similar situation. Thanks

We used this one PC10IMG_Vision_TMOUS_2.15.531.3_Radio_12.52.60.25U_26.08.04.30_M3.zip

Not with an HTC Vision, you can't... You need an PC to do this.

That's too bad. The G2 used to easy. Thanks for the reply!
Edit: So that goes for the G2 aswell correct?

99 Unknown fail
I have tried to flash the provided earlier in the post (PC10IMG.zip).
But the device returns the following. Is the because i need to gold pass the SD card?

This is your problem, adb can't see your phone. Was it up and running when you tried this ? If so it's your adb setup. Have you used adb before on this phone ? See my signature for a link to a guide to setting up adb.

For the G2 there is a new program called mr. root, wich makes everything a bit easier, but you still need an computer to do it. So that's correct indeed.

From memory that 99 error means you used htcdev.
You can find more info on that here

The cmd's seem to be working from the cmd prompt. for example the phone did go into boot loader.
The phone is in a state where it will not boot up. Fails on the htc logo.
However boot loader is not functioning, every time it directs me to clock work orange mod screen. Which does not function either

Same problem!!
Hi, im really new here, and i googled the 'symptoms' of my broken HTC desire Z and this thread came up. My phone is showing exactly the same writting as what you described, but i really really dont know why. i dont know what all these technical terms mean/do but i REALLY miss my phone and want it to work again!! I would really really REALLY appreciate any help anyone could offer me, because the warranty is up so i cant send it back!
Thank you so much!

So to get this straight, you've tried to root your phone and it went wrong. If so, can you still get into your recovery?
-Turn off phone, hold down the power and volume up button. Then ou should get your bootloader. Once that's loaded slelect recovery with your volume buttons and confirm (press "enter") by pressing your powerbutton. Then your phone should restart in recovery. If you haven't changed your recovery image, you should be able to get the stock ROM running again.-

No access to Recovery and HOX doesn't boot

Hello
i have some problems with my HTC One X. Until 2 hours ago it worked perfectly and without problems. i didn't flash anything in the last few weeks, but theres ARHD (ICS) installed. But then suddenly it had a freeze, so i had to restart it with pressing the powerbutton for 10 seconds. Since then, it doesn't boot anymore and also i can't access the Recovery, i get a blackscreen if i try, But i come into the Bootloader, Fastboot is possible but doesn't work...
I tried to reflash the Boot.img, but there was an error: erasing cache FAILED (remote: 19000008)
I also tried to reflash the CWM Recovery but there was another error:
5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img

OKAY [ 0.904s]
writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) Format partition SOS done

So can anybody help me? All that I want is access to my virtual SD Card for saving my data, and can anybody tell me how and if I can "repair" my One X? And sorry for the bad english, i'm no native speaker...

you can try this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1609190

Thanks, but it didn't help. When i tried to flash the images in fastboot almost the same errors as before occured...i absolutely dont know what to to now, i think i even can't relock the bootloader, flash the stock recovery and a RUU

what the error mate?

Hm, i don't really know. There are these Error-Codes, mostly "remote: 19000008" or "remote: 00000004" also with a 5 at the end, and it says "remote: not allowed" sometimes.

[Q] Verizon HTC incredible 2 stops at Logo

I have a Verizon ADR6350VW HTC Incredible 2. I decided to 'upgrade' it to a new ROM.
I unlocked the boot loader and installed ClockwrkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0

I tried putting an incredible 2 ROM (Viper) and since then it won't fully boot, it gets stuck forever on the green HTC logo on the white background.
I can get to the bootloader, and tried reflashing the same or other downloaded ROMs (all meant for the HTC incredible 2). Without much luck.
The original flashing process was not interrupted. I did a lot of googling and reading (but missed the S-ON/S-OFF part originally), and have tried many different ways to get out of this without luck.
3rd party ROM will flash and complete the process (but still won't boot), Verizon ROMs will give me an error (cannot open flash, bad). I did check the md5 checksums on ALL the files I used, and tried flashing from adb to no avail.
Before anyone asks, Yes I do clear the data, cache and Dalvik cache before flashing. I am at a loss of what to try next, short of finding someone reputable online to do it for a fee.
Thanks,
Wahran

1st recommendation: go s-off
2nd recommendation: flash the boot img from the rom in fastboot...I don't know the exact process because I am s-off, but it is discussed in many of the development threads, so now you know what terms to search for at least.

Thank you for your reply.
Going S-OFF: I tired, most guides online will show you how to do by going to the OS first (and enabling USB debug). The only one I found from Revolutionary involved doing it from the adb. When I boot into ClockwrkMod, I can run adb just fine (doing adb devices returns the correct S/N amongst other things), but revolutionary tool complains it can't find the device.
I will google again your second recommendation.

From Nitsuj17 in the viper thread post 2:
If you are dev unlock, you need to pull the boot.img from the rom zip and fastboot it in hboot
The process will be the same for any rom as long as you are dev unlocked.

fastboot flash boot boot.img worked without error, then I followed it with "fastboot reboot", it took about 15mn, but now it's booted to the SIM unlock screen (that would be my next step).

I'm glad you got it going. You'll probably want to remember that method since you'll have to do it any time you flash a rom.

Since I posted that message, I had to put back the Verizon stock ROM, so I can SIM unlock the phone (apparently you cannot use the unlock code with a 'cooked' ROM, something I didn't know), and while doing that, HBOOT got downgraded to 0.97, which allowed me to S-OFF the phone with revolutionary. I got the phone SIM unlocked and put back the Viper ROM on it.
In summary, learning from my mistakes, and if I am not mistaken:
1. If you plan to SIM unlock the phone, do it while it is still on stock firmware, it will save you a lot of time and headaches.
2. If you are unlocking the boot loader, S-OFF the phone as well (and put Clockworkmod on it as well), it would make life a lot easier.
3. Then you can go an experiment with ROMs....
gtdtm: Thank you again for your help and patience, and most importantly for keeping me going, as I was about to give up on this phone.

[Q] S-off method - Phone rooter by other

I just bought a rooted DInc2. I love it, and am slowly learning about. I don't know the method that the previous owner rooted the phone, but it is currently S-ON.
So, my question is: which method should I use to get it to S-OFF? I was looking at the Comprehensive S-OFF/Root Methods (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1751796), and it is not clear to me. Do I use the instructions, "Get S-OFF after using HTCDev Unlock", even if I don't know if the phone was rooted using HTCDev Unlock?
Here is info on my phone:
S-ON
HBoot 0.98.0000
Radio 1.09.01.0312
eMMC-boot
Firmware 6.01.605.05 710RD
Thanks for your help

Only way that I know for it to be still S on is through htcdev.com. Yeah use that guide.

I copied the radio to my sdcard, with the name PG32IMG.zip. When you reboot in bootloader, it prompts you to run that file.

Don't forget to delete or rename that file when you're done so it doesn't prompt you to run that file every time you go into your boot loader.

[Q] HBoot Relocked, S-ON, Root, trying to upload stock ROM

Hello,
Im having reallly big problem with my Desire HD device and unfortunately,I realize this is only my fault and inadvertence. Im hoping that someone will help me with my problem...
First of all, I've had stock 2.3.5 on my device and every possible blockade. I've used Downgrade_v2 files (with adb and Gingerbreak and 1.32 stock android) but it wasn't working as it supossed to do. I've found nice tool to unblock DHD, called EasyAceRootTool. Everything went OK, new H-Boot was uploaded, unblock process went smoothly, Revovery Touch was uploaded to DHD as well, Superuser was installed too.
And at this level I've hurried too much, because I've installed by recovery new rom on Android 4.0.4 , this one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1839004
And of course... I know now iVe forgot to make S-OFF, android doesn't start, nothing happens at all....
My Hboot now says :
Hboot :

2)Install RUU, It says that there is a problem with Hboot and i need to wait for upgrade
3)Install PD98IMG.zip (pulled out from stock RUU) by recovery, it says that this image is "bad"
4)Restore backed up adnroid from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920876&highlight=hboot, from section "Install stock Vodafone ROM", but it didn't helped as well, it says MD5 checksum failed...
5) When im trying to unlock Hboot in EasyAceRootTool, it communicating with device, but then it says : "Your device is not recognized"
Please guys... what else should I do ??

The boot.img isn't the bootloader. You need to flash the ROM (not RUU), then fastboot flash the boot.img.

Wait, no. Flash the ROM from recovery. You can't flash zips like that in fastboot. You can flash ROM images, but it makes more sense for you to get a recovery and flash zips instead.
If you don't have a recovery, first you need to install one. If you have a rooted ROM, you can install a recovery from apps: ROM Manager for ClockworkMod, 4ext Updater apk (from 4ext's website) for 4ext, and GooManager for TWRP. If you don't, download a recovery.img and flash it from fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
.
If you do, just go straight to flashing the zip from recovery. Then,
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
.

OK, first of all, I'm having recovery, 5.8.7.2 Touch version that was installed with EasyAceRootTool.
I can't install any .apk, because I have now installed 4.0.4 rom, and because of S-ON, it will not start. I was trying to install few roms from recovery of course (Stock versions downloaded from xda, 1.32 versions and 2.3.5.), but every time I am doing this, revovery give me a error "installation aborted (bad)" it's from a PD98IMG zip downloaded from xda and rom.zip pulled out from "RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_225512_signed"
When I am trying to do in fastboot mode :
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
(system.img from stock roms, they are uploading, says OK for writing, but when I reboot phone, I see green HTC on white screen, then black screen, and then everytime phone reboots in recovery.
Few minutes a go i tried :
Code:
fastboot eease cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip PD98IMG.zip
but every time it says :
Code:
C:\win>fastboot flash zip UPDATE.zip

What are you trying to do?? If you have an unlocked bootloader a RUU will never flash. Besides, being S-ON requires the specific RUU for your device.
If you have CWM and an unlocked bootloader, you can flash any custom rom in recovery but need to flash boot.img after flashing the rom.

You can't flash apks in recovery, only zips. Then fastboot flash the boot.img.

Ok, I was trying to put this device on feet, because it wasn't load any ROM I was flashing. There's a lot of tools and tutorials that I was reading before flashing DHD on xda and other forums. I was convinced, that I need S-OFF to use custom ROM. Few minutes a go I flashed Sabsa-Prime ROM by Recovery, then i searched for boot.img in Sabsa_Prime_v16.0_By_AlirezaB.zip, flashed it in fastboot, anddddd tadaaam...Everythings working perfectly
Thank You gyus, I really appreciate your help !! I was really stuck on this device...
Best Regards !

Hello,
Im having reallly big problem with my Desire HD device and unfortunately,I realize this is only my fault and inadvertence. Im hoping that someone will help me with my problem...
First of all, I've had stock 2.3.5 on my device and every possible blockade. I've used Downgrade_v2 files (with adb and Gingerbreak and 1.32 stock android) but it wasn't working as it supossed to do. I've found nice tool to unblock DHD, called EasyAceRootTool. Everything went OK, new H-Boot was uploaded, unblock process went smoothly, Revovery Touch was uploaded to DHD as well, Superuser was installed too.
And at this level I've hurried too much, because I've installed by recovery new rom on Android 4.0.4 , this one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1839004
And of course... I know now iVe forgot to make S-OFF, android doesn't start, nothing happens at all....
My Hboot now says :
Hboot :
***Relocked***
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.0020029
RADIO -26.14.04.28_M
Ive tried a lot of soutions
1)Install PD98IMG.zip on sdcard (2 different stock roms) but when Bootlader is checking image, it says, that newer android is already on device
2)Install RUU, It says that there is a problem with Hboot and i need to wait for upgrade
3)Install PD98IMG.zip (pulled out from stock RUU) by recovery, it says that this image is "bad"
4)Restore backed up adnroid from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920876&highlight=hboot, from section "Install stock Vodafone ROM", but it didn't helped as well, it says MD5 checksum failed...
5) When im trying to unlock Hboot in EasyAceRootTool, it communicating with device, but then it says : "Your device is not recognized"
Please guys... what else should I do ??
ps. I know there's a lot of grammatic mistakes, sorry for that. I was trying to check what I was writing
