[q] h3g desire hd rom

I need an H3G branded rom for the DESIRE HD. I have found a post in the forums
but the file seems to be corrupted. Does anyone have this ?

Are you sure that h3g has branded roms?
I bought mine with a h3g contract and the phones in austria seem to have unbranded stock roms.

Yeah my phone came with a branded rom originally. Not sure where i can find it...

Thank you for your answer regarding the easy ace removal tool. what i would like to know is do i have to go install a new RUU from htcdev.com? because i download the one for h3g but the feedback i got was that it wasnt the right download for the right model. and can i continue with the rest of the process on htcdev without installing a new RUU?

Depends. What did the tool say when you tried to run it? If you need a RUU and can't find a compatible one, make a goldcard and flash any RUU that supports hboot unlock.

Wait, if you're S-Off, just flash a recovery and flash a ROM from there.

Wait, how did you try to flash it? That link is for the boot splash, not the recovery. Download a recovery img, flash it from fastboot with "fastboot flash recovery *img filename*" and flash a ROM from the recovery.

i tried flashing it with this fastboot flash "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.0-ace.img" from the tutorial at http://theunlockr.com/2012/10/02/how-to-install-clockworkmod-recovery-on-the-htc-desire-hd/ and got that "writing 'recovery' ... FAILED (remote: not allowed)" error. i tried the link in my previous promised to set my fon to ENG S-OFF which would in turn solve the "(remote: not allowed)"error and enable me to use fastboot.

Um...is your phone in fastboot mode? Like, did you select fastboot from the hboot menu?

yes i did. and now this is what it says "FAILED (status read failed (too many links))". for some reason im unable to add the screenshot to the post else i would have. what does it mean "too many links"?

still not working
@bananagranola no further tips for me?

Nope. Never seen than error before. Maybe someone else has.

Cannot bring Evo4G back to stock rom

Hi Guys, I have spent the last 2 days searching this forum and trying to understand what I need to do to bring my phone back to stock but can't seem to figure it out and thought I did post a new thread. Here is what I have,
HTC Evo4G
Android version 4.0.4
Baseband version 2.15.00.12.19
Kernal version 2.6.38.8-evervolv-acies-ics+
Build number MIUI-2.8.3.0 MIUI
If I go into recovery mode (the one that u get when u hold down power and volume down button), here is what I see,
*** RELOCKED ***
SUPERSONIC EVT2 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT 2.18.0001
I have tried to run RUU and each time it comes up with "Error 140: Bootloader version error"
Does anyone know how I can return my phone to stock please.

Which RUU are you trying to run? The RUU's Hboot has to be the same as what you already have, meaning it has to be Hboot 2.18.

How do I downgrade my hboot to 2.10?

Download the RUU from this link and run it through your bootloader. I believe you will need to rename it PC36IMG.zip for it to work. Make sure you don't have an extra .zip extension on the end.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1484240
To downgrade your Hboot, you can use Captain Throwback's method for rooting Hboot 2.18. It involves using ADB to upgrade your misc. partition, which would then allow you to downgrade by running an older RUU.
Again, which RUU did you try to use originally?

Generally, since you are relocked s-on you can find a signed ruu file in which you can just flash from your relocked bootloader screen or you can run an ruu exe file from your computer. I do not know if there is a method for downgrading your hboot while on s-on but flashing a signed ruu or running an ruu exe will bring your bootloader down. If that don't work, then i would listen to this guy above my post lol and see if that method works.

I also installed RUU...4.65 thru PC, still S-OFF, then downgraded to RUU..3.29 tried to run unrevoked-forever-son again and still S-OFF.

I had the same problem also. It took me hours to figure this out. Before you can down grade to an earlier Hboot, you have to make sure the bootloader is unlocked from htc.devs, make sure that recovery is installed, and the phone has "su" rights superuser rights. It is critical that the phone have superuser installed and you have su rights before before you install these 2 files to your sd card. The first file is flash_image then the next one is mtd-eng. http://themikmik.com/attachment.php?...1&d=1327588554 http://themikmik.com/attachment.php?...1&d=1327588554
Unzip these files and copy it to your sd card. Then make sure your phone is in usb debugging mode, then go into command prompt on your pc, then type adb shell. then you should see a $ dollar sign. Type su and and you should see a # pound sign. Then enter these commands below one step a time.
cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image
chmod 755 /data/flash_image
/data/flash_image misc /sdcard/mtd-eng.img
Then you can install your PC36IMG to your sd card then install the it into bootloader or run the RUU from your pc following the instructions on the program. Make sure your phone is charged up. I prefer a full charge so there won't be issues. If you still have concerns, Re post back and let me know where you are stuck. I followed this guide when I had my supersonic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473373

Boot into fastboot, and from the path where you have fastboot.exe on your computer, run the command:
Code:
fastboot getvar mainver
and then report back what it says. If your main version is 5.07.651.1, then that RUU won't work, and you'll have to unlock again and downgrade your misc partition to flash back to stock. You should really flash a stock ROM while you're unlocked too. Having an ICS ROM on there and relocking and likely what's causing your issues.

Here is the message I get,
C:\android>fastboot getvar mainver
< waiting for device >
So, what has happened since my last post is that I tried the directions that were given out by chickipaul, however, in trying that I was getting a segmentation error when trying to run '/data/flash_image misc /sdcard/mtd-eng.img' and I read some posts on here that folks having a segmentation error under icecream sandwich should try running the command on gingerbread. Because of that, I tried to put a gingerbread ROM and selected synergy. Now that I have done that, once the phone boots up, it gets to the lock screen Ok. When I try to unlock it, I keep getting messages that some process has died, I click Ok and another message pops up abt another process crashing, and so forth and so forth.
I am hoping that I just need to either install synergy rom again and hope it works Ok or somehow get another gingerbread ROM in there. From there, I could return to stock by installing the RUU. Right now if I run the RUU, the phone never boots into recovery (I think RUU never gets to connect to the phone because of all the processes crashing).
What do u think?

Hi Design Flaw. I just read your current post about what you tried. It sounds like something got corrupted in system files of the phone, that's why your phone is crashing. Question can you get to your bootloader screen by removing the battery for a few seconds, reinstalling the battery then hold volume down and the power button at the same time. If you can get into the bootloader screen where it says on the top of your screen has the Hboot version 2.18 and the S-On. I recommend to unlock the bootloader with your unlock_token file from htc dev first. I will borrow my wife's evo 4g and let her have my evo 3d and try to duplicate the same concern on her phone to help you figure out your phone. Post back here when you have time to work on your phone. I will help you out.

Do you have the HTC Drivers installed? Does your Bootloader say "FASTBOOT USB"? It sounds like either you don't have the drivers installed or you didn't select fastboot from the HBOOT list.
Once it says FASTBOOT USB, then run that command again and post the output.
Unfortunately, you can't downgrade the misc partition while you're on an ICS ROM - that's why you're getting the segmentation fault error.
Flash a stock Gingerbread ROM. Synergy isn't really a good choice.

Hey there ... I did not know that I had to run that when I was in bootloader and fastboot usb was being displayed. I was trying to run it when my phone was connected to the PC. I just booted into bootloader and while fastboot usb was up there on the screen, I ran the command and here is what I see,
C:\android>fastboot getvar mainver
mainver: 1.17.651.1
finished. total time: 0.003s
Synergy ROM did not work for me so I had to go back to MIUI.us. Now that I have a working phone and I can copy over files to the phone, I am going to flash urayamashii ROM and see if I can run ruu after that.
Thank you so much for your help!

If that's your mainver, you should be able to run any RUU or signed PC36IMG.zip.
First though, you need to flash a stock Gingerbread ROM. Every ROM you talk about flashing is not a stock ROM. That's the first thing you need to do. Then you can relock, and I'd run the 4.54 PC36IMG.zip through HBOOT to restore back to stock (you can get it from the "Restore stock" link in my sig).

When you say run 4.54 PC36IMG.zip through HBOOT, what do you mean?

Yes, that's the link, and the procedure to flash it - but you will have to be relocked first for it to work.
And an RUU is not the same as a PC36IMG file, which is why I made the distinction. One is run from a PC, the other is installed directly from the device.

Thanks again! So, dumb qs here but why RUU won't work when installing from PC (gives incorrect version error) but when installing directly from device, it is Okay?

I have no idea. It should really work either way. Not sure why it doesn't. Though . . . It could be because the device can't reboot into RUU mode because you're not running it from a stock Gingerbread ROM (like I keep saying you need to flash).

[Q]How to Downgrade and Get S-OFF using AAHK for HTCDev unlocked DHD?

Hi All,
I have a 3AU branded DHD running software version 3.12.861.2. I've unlocked using HTCDev and installed CWM + rooted my phone.
I wanted to get S-OFF using AAHK and have relocked my bootloader, however when I run AAHK to downgrade, I noticed that I'm getting a bunch of errors including permission denied when the script is trying to create a goldcard, and a bunch of other permission denied errors elsewhere even though I have root access. I'm guessing all of this might have something to do with the fact that I have CWM while the script was meant to run on a fully stock DHD.
Needless to say the downgrade failed, and I'm a bit puzzled on where to go next. I'm doing all of this using a Ubuntu Live CD as well so I shouldn't be having connection issues.
EDIT: Please ignore this thread. Problem solved.

Extract the boot.img from the rom that you have flashed and put inside folder. Connect your dhd in fastboot.
Navigate the cmd to your folder containing the boot.img and type fastboot flash boot boot.img

Bootloop on Desire HD

Hi Peeps. Appreciate any help here.
Recently got 02 faulty Desire HD from someone. No idea what he did. One of it has a bootloop, while the other is just stuck on the HTC logo. I will just concentrate my problem on the device with the bootloop as it seems to have a higher chance of recovering.
Was able to boot to HBoot and shows me this screen. I will type it out as I have no access to camera for now.
*** UNLOCKED ***

Tried to flash stock rom, cannot. Go to recovery, goes back to bootloop. Factory Reset, goes back to bootloop. Is there anyone to revive this phone?

Can u flash stock roms that's in one file .exe (RUU i think)? Boot into Hboot, plug usb cable and run the rom installer

That's what I did. It could not complete the update.

This is the rom that I used...

You are s-on. You have to flash the boot.img using fastboot after installing the rom.

Have you fastboot flashed a recovery?

Firstly. is there anything to make it S-OFF? Couldn't find a method that works. Most of it I found requires to boot into Android which is impossible for my case.
Also tried to put PD98IMG.zip in SD card to flash it, but give CID incorrect error.

Knowing what the error was would be helpful. Of you want S-Off you need to relock and do it manually.

actually what really matters to me is that I can get it working to stock rom. Rooting can be done later... but I cant even get it flashed to stock rom!!

I will try my best to explain cause I have no idea what's happening...
1. used fastboot using CMD to flash CWM to recovery. Error: signature verify fail.
2. Tried RUU.exe to flash. Simply says the update could not be completed.
Is there any thing I could do with Hboot or Fastboot that could revive the phone? I think I tried almost all methods... unless there is other ways that I have not tried...

Are you unlocked? Exactly what command did you use to flash? Are you drivers properly installed (HTC Sync with phone unplugged)? Did you flash from the folder containing your recovery.img?

1. I'm on s-on. Does it matters?
2. Bootloader should be unlocked after flashing the unlock.bin from htcdev.com. I saw the *** UNLOCK *** when I go into HBOOT.
3. Command I used was *fastboot flash recovery recover.img*. The recover.img is actually the CWM recovery.
4. HTC Sync is installed.
4. Yes i did. It gave me FAILED status. Error: Signature verify error.
I will try to snapshot whatever process I did to make my explanation clearer later part of the day.

Make sure the file name is correct of the recovery.img file
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Signature check is failing or the .img file is flaw (try downloading again) or your bootloader is not unlocked in its whole. That happens from time to time. Try using this recovery image (touch CWM):

Error : No Connection.?

Hey guys! So my cousin bought this used Desire HD. Its running 2.2 Froyo.
So here is the list of the problems:
1. When downloading from Google Play it does not download the app but it can browse. It gives a "Error : No Connection" in the status bar.
2. It should update to 2.3.3 but it says im already updated.
3. Tried factory resetting 2 times. Same thing.
4. Also one weird thing. I live here in Pakistan, so YouTube is blocked here. But the phone does browse YouTube? (it cant open the video though). Some kind of ROM problem i guess so.
What should i do to resurrect this problem? Thank you! Its the International version. "HTC Desire HD A9191".
Also the Serial number is SH11JRX08759

You could try unlocking the bootloader, root, and install a 4.2.2 custom rom. This will void the warranty but it may be the only way to fix the problem.

Update : so i went into the bootloader. And its pretty strange. Its S-OFF but not rooted :/ that is a really strange issue. Also i have noted the signals to be a bit more weaker.. Can somebody guide me from here?
Here r the pics btw

Thanks for the reply bro. But its already s-off.. Could u explain me the procedure after this? Thanks
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium

Power off the phone. When it is off, hold down the volume down button and press the power button. This should get you into the HBoot screen. At the top of the screen, it will either say "UNLOCKED" or "LOCKED". If it is unlocked that's great. If it's not unlocked, look at the HBoot line to make sure the HBoot version on your phone can be unlocked. If it can, just follow the guide posted in this forum to install a 4ext custom recovery to flash custom roms.

There are lots of problems in this phone. Like every minute i find a new bug. Can someone please guide me in flashing the stock rom? Or if possible. ROOT it and put some sense 4.1 ROM? That should be 100% stable though. Since this phone is for my little cousin. Thanks. Will appreciate the helping hand

root it with z4root, and use the one click eng s-off.I also had a phone brought in the other day, same thing.You must root it with z4root.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953
download that , run it, temporary root.Enable USB debugging, connect the cable
http://cloud.addictivetips.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/EasyS-OFF_05.zip
download that, extract the folder on your desktop or wherever possible, make sure you have ADB drivers installed, run desire hd easy s-off.exe,
and click s-off.It will flash the HBOOT and you're good to go.Make sure you disable fastboot afterwards.(settings>power)
Flash the latest radio found somewhere around here, it will help for GPS connection in newer ROMs.

Woah! Thanks for explaining it to me so thoroughly
Just one question. The phone is already S-OFF :/ Do I have to S-OFF it again? :/
Can't I just root it? :/

You need the ENG S-OFF in order to use any actual commands/flash anything.Also rooting won't fix the play store problem, you must change ROM.If I may recommend, SVHD for a sense rom, or CM10.1 for that clean look.

Ok I am going to Temporary Root my DHD by Z4Root
Keep in touch kind sir I will update u the details

Unlock your bootloader first via htc dev. just follow the intructions in htcdev
Note: You need to update your bootloader first
- if the ruu in htcdev runs and update your bootloader, then your good to go
- if not or error appears, then create a goldcard (Instruction can be found somewhere here)
copy the updated hboot zip file to the root of your card and flash the zip file in recovery
then go back to unlocking your bootloader via htcdev
once unlock use the easyaceroottool to root your phone
-this will automatically flash the clockword recovery then you can flash any custom rom that you want.:fingers-crossed:

he doesn't need to update the hboot, he can easily flash the engineering one and do it a way lot easier.

I am doing what Steam. has said. but since I am running Windows 8, I am encountering some .NET Framework issue unfortunately. trying to resolve them first :/

OK I finally got the .NET Framework working. Gonna try out the process (Gonna read the ENG S-OFF) Obviously

what the?
It says "Bootloader Corrupt. DO NOT REBOOT. Seek help from XDA" :s :s

In the old thread that was here many people rebooted straight away with no problems, they had S-OFF.
Example:

just make sure you have a custom ROM ready to be flashed, do not boot the stock again once you reboot to bootloader.Flash 4EXT recovery, you can find the recovery .img here
just DL a ROM of your choice and flash it afterwards.
