Develop Bugs

Well, I think I killed it :(

Having a problem with my DHD after unlocking the bootloader through HTCDEV and then running the Advanced ACE Hack Kit.
It appears to be flashing roms but when rebooting it's just freezing at the HTC screen.
Now, I know it must be something I've done/I'm doing but I have no idea what so can someone please talk me through flashing the easiest rom in the easiest way?

Can you access to the bootloader(Turn off the device then press and hold vol down and power together until booted)?

Yep. I can get into the bootloader so i've been going into recovery (which is now ClockworkMod 5.0.2.7) and trying to flash different roms from there but none are working so it must be something I'm doing

What it sais when you try and fail.Are there any errors ?

Nope. I've tried 4 different roms and they all seem to work but when it reboots I just get the HTC at startup but it hangs there

You are not bricked if you can access bootloader.
You have to flash the Roms boot.img separate when you flash roms with unlocked bootloader, I would recommend to run the ruu from your computer when in fastboot mode, then relock the bootloader using HTCdev and rerun the advanced ace hack kit.

I know I'm gonna look like a complete spaz here but can you tell me how to do it? I flashed my Magic and it was so easy compared to this :-S
Where do I put the rom? Do I need to unzip it first? Amd what commands do I use in fastboot?

Which of it? flash Rom or get real S-OFF?

Gixermouse, you commited a mistake covered in the effen manual...you tried running the kit with an unlocked bootloader. You need to relock it first and then re run the Kit.
Do the following:
1) Boot in hboot and then choose fastboot.
2) Plug the phone (until you see fastboot usb)
3) Open a cmd as Admin in the PC or Terminal as root (in linux or mac)
4) Type: fastboot oem lock
then you should see OKAY. finished...then reboot the phone and from the htc screen run the Hack Kit again...
It will work unless you did a factory reset....if you need help just let me know...:good:

OK! I've followed what you said to do and on the HBOOT scree it now says *** RELOCKED *** at the top but when I try to run the hack kit it's saying "Error: device not found". I've tried at the HTC screen, HBOOT screen ad FASTBOOT screen. Any ideas?

umm...it seems that u have done a factory reset. I guess the best u can do is to flash a ruu, go back to stock and then when working re run the Hack Kit to gain S-OFF and root.
Do you know, what your cid is? boot in fastboot, plug the phone until you see fastboot usb and then from a cmd session as admin type
fastboot getvar all....paste here the INFOcidnum

since ur are saying that it says no device found then u have no other option but to flash the p98img.zip through fastboot but make sure not to flash a dhd shipped with gingerbread with a froyo ruu.Peace

What country and carrier is your phone from? The AAHK has am option to download RUUs. Try to use that. If that doesn't workout, I'll try to find an RUU for you (depending on your country and carrier).

The phone is a replacement board fitted by HTC under waranty after mine died (through no fault of my own that time!)
It wasn't network locked and was running 2.3.5 when I recieved it.
By booting in recovery and mounting the system data and cache I was able to make it appear to flash a rom and when I did a backup the files were on there but it still wouldn't boot.
If there's anything else you need let me know because the LG-A100 I've borrowed is now driving me crazy and I'm getting a bit desperate

4. Extract theses tools where you can actually remember.
5. Run RUU and wait till the ROM update utility screen appears.
6. Go to Temp directory where your ruu is downloaded (C:\Users\Your User Name\AppData\Local\Temp for Win7 and vista,C:\Documents and Settings\Your User Name\Local Settings\Temp for WINXP Users) and search for rom.zip
7. Copy the rom.zip and paste it to sdcard and rename it to PB99IMG.zip
8. Connect your phone to computer via USB as charge only and enable USB debugging and Unknown Sources.
9. Run DOWNGRADER on tools folder that you downloaded and extracted it.

This process will wipe all the data from your phone:good:
The downgrade installs an official stock HTC ROM with Hboot1.02 (You can s-off with revolutionary and after it You can flash any version of Hboot):fingers-crossed:
Your sdcard should be fat32 formatted:good:
This Pure entertainment will relock the bootloader:laugh:
When life gives you lemonade
HiT THANKS IF THIS HELPED YOU. AND POST A REPLY FOR IMPROVEMENTS
Improvement credit
Nloooo

Respect for the effort but there are a few misunderstandings:
1. Locking of bootloader??? Why for God's sake??? A ton of people lost their hair trying to unlock it!!!!
2. Downgrading? What kind? You have to explain the reason (1.03 bootloader or what)
3. Quoting "2. Download the HTC Desire ROM (RUU)". Don't mix rom with RUU (Rom Update Utility), they are not the same.
Plus: which RUU to download, you have to explain, what version (Android related), which region based (for branded devices)...
Ok you mentioned goldcard-explain why (for branded devices)...
My recommendation: suggest 2.3 RUU, it's usable with all phone types (amoled or slcd) and all regions (no goldcard needed applicable for all brends).
Also you have to mention that all RUUs can be used from PC while phone is connected via USB.
4. S-off process: revolutionary-yes but for 0.93. and 1.02 hboots, for older versions of hboots alpharev reflash utility needed
5. Rooting: Unrevoked-yes but when you don't use Revolutionary (gaining s-off using Alpharev reflash utility).
Revolutionary itself gives option to flash recovery (Clockwork Mod) which you use to flash Superuser app to gain root access (explained on documentation page for
Revolutionary, all you need is to read http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/revolutionary)
6. Quoting "The process will flash your recovery partition back to stock" - no, Revolutionary will flash ClockworkMod recovery.
7. Quoting "The downgrade installs an official stock HTC ROM with Hboot1.02 (You can s-off with revolutionary and after it You can flash any version of Hboot)" - not necessarily the hboot will be 1.02, it depends on which RUU you choose to flash.
Plus:
Downgrade package contains virus, warn potential user - what is it, a virus that will ruin their PC or just an exploit used to gain access to restricted phone partitions.
I hope I helped...

wow... i agree with nlooooo, good effort but u just confused the s*** outa me lol.

Try the 2.3 RUU. Check my sig.

my phone was sent for repair, got new motherboard and after one hour of using it he just froze. I removed my battery and put it back, after that it stuck on HTC logo screen. So I went to flash RUU but I couldn't install it I got singarure error, so I made bootloader unlock and after that I don't know what to do next.
Nothing in bootloader it says: "checking PB99IMG.zip - no images found"
so I really don't know how to make downgrade because I can't get into the OS I can't flash RUU's and PB99IMG's, some PB99IMG's are read but after that it just stops, I don't get the screen with recovery...OK, boot....OK, etc (I don't get parsing message). He just get's in the bootloader again :/

[Solved] No OS, No Recovery HELP please HTC One (M8) Unlocked

I have a US HTC One M8 that I bought direct unlocked from htc's site direct in January 2015.
I rooted my device, and was running Paranoid Android 5.1 with TWRP recovery and decided to switch back to stock so I could sell the device.
I downloaded the RUU for my device from htc's site (ruu 6.12.1540.4 for unlocked/developer htc one m8).
I plugged in my device, typed in "fastboot oem lock" until the top of the bootloader said "Software status: modified" and "RELOCKED."
Then I ran the RUU but got Error 155 saying it was the wrong RUU. My device now had a silver HTC logo stuck in the middle. I pressed the power + volume down and got to the bootloader.
But now there is no option for "Recovery" in the bootloader, and the "Reboot" option just takes me straight back to the bootloader.
Here is what it says at the bootloader now:
***Software status: Modified***
*** RELOCKED***
***Security Warning ***
It says OS-4.16.1540.8
In addition, I can't charge without the screen being on. I plug in my phone and it shows the battery icon for a few seconds and then goes back into the booloader with "fastboot ac"
Please help me get my device working & back to stock. Any information or tips will help. I can take photos and provide with any additional information if needed.
Thanks.

about error 155, try the following
1. Lock your bootloader through by booting into hboot and then going into fastboot and issuing the command "fasboot oem lock".
2. Once locked, reboot your system.
3. Open RUU and follow onscreen instructions.
Should work. Best of luck

How do I flash a new recovery?
SergioRmz, My device is S-ON, not developer edition, just factory unlocked from htc
Rawfire, I can't flash a RUU. The RUU just gives me an error after a few seconds from starting it - it says try again with a different RUU / wrong RUU (error 155).
Also, could you help me flash a new recovery? Could I flash a new recovery, then flash someone's stock nandroid backup & recovery to get my device to stock? Can I do all of this with a RELOCKED & S-ON device?
I have no idea how to flash a new recovery so instructions would be very very helpful
One final question - Can you tell me the best way in my current sitatution to get my device to stock without S-OFF? I'm willing to try anything (except S-off) to get my device to stock so I can sell it / trade it in.

I can suggest couple of things, unlock the bootloader to install custom recovery and then you can flash any compatible rom,
Or to suggest some exact RUU, what's your device's exact model?

Just tried this, said "Device was already locked!"
Then tried RUU again, still said Error 155 "please get the correct RUU and try again"
When I unplug the phone it says error zip file with RUU written under it, and I had to press power + volume down to get it to the bootloader again.
Thanks for your continued help rawfire.

Is that os-4.16.1540.8 written on the bootloader ? If yes, you have a Dev Ed device, the other RUU meant for EU won't work for you.
Post fastboot getvar all (without serial & imei no.) then we know the actual device version
If it is indeed a Dev Ed device, what you need to do :
1. flash the 6.12.1540.4 firmware
See this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64407841&postcount=2862
How-to, see this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64416322&postcount=2864
2. Run RUU 6.12.1540.4 after the firmware is installed
Or the easy way is :
find 4.16.1540.8 RUU and install this then after, do OTA to 4.17.1540.9 then 6.12.1540.4
Edit : here is the direct HTC link for 4.16.1540.8 RUU - http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...G_20.68.4196.01_F_release_411207_signed_2.exe

Then it is confirmed that you have a Dev Ed device.
Go with the easy way that I posted above. Install RUU 4.16.1540.8 then do OTA to the latest, done.
Additional - as you mentioned you're going to sell this device, I suggest after the last OTA 6.12.1540.4 is done, run RUU 6.12.1540.4 to remove all the OTA leftovers in device. You'll have a clean device after the last RUU.

4.16.1540.8 RUU has been stuck at "Updating.. (0/7) Sending....." for 20+ minutes now. Phone is showing just the silver htc logo, no progress bar or anything else.
Should I try flashing the 6.12.1540.4 firmware now? Thanks for the help so far ckpv5
Also, is the phone charging while connected to the computer & updating? Just asking since I can't see the battery percent (no OS) and don't want the phone to die while flashing.

This show you have USB/PC connection problem. To run RUU you need Windows PC with USB2.0 and the latest HTC USB drivers installed.
See the How-To linked above for the HTC Sync Manager download page, install it as it will install the USB Driver, then uninstall the Sync Manager but leave the driver
While flashing .. charging is minimal, won''t be enough if you don't have at least 70% battery

Thanks for the info, going to reinstall HTC Sync Manager and try again. Does it need to be USB 2.0, or can it be USB 3.0?
Also, how long can I charge without having the screen burn because when I plug in the phone to the wall or the the computer, it shows the bootloader screen. It stays in that screen while charging so I don't want to charge for extended periods otherwise screen will burn. Can you tell me if I am right on this?

You must use USB2.0
When in bootloader, choose power down then charge it, you'll see the progress and there will be no screen burn.
If you don't have a USB2.0 - other options :
Option 1:
Clean your PC temp folder - just select "run" then type %temp% and clear all that your can.
Run the RUU again (not necessary to connect to phone), when the RUU dialog open, check in %temp% you should see two new folders are created. Find ROM.zip in one of the folder, copy out the ROM.zip to your desktop. You can close the RUU dialog box.
Rename the RUU.zip to 0P6BIMG.zip (that's a zero not "O") then put it on your microSD.
boot to bootloader then select hboot or boot to hboot - it's your choice
hboot will scan the file and ask to volume up to update
volume up
finish, press power to reboot and do all the setup stuff
remove 0P6BIMG.zip from your microSD
now you have ROM installed then can proceed with OTA and the rest.
Option 2:
Re unlock your bootloader again with your unlock_code.bin that you got from HTC.
Install TWRP 2.8.7.0
Restore a clean non-rooted 4.16.1540.8 nandroid backup and its stock recovery
Reboot.. setup.. OTA..OTA.. done.
You can get all the needed files in the link shown in my signature
So now .. you have 3 options to choose.
1. RUU method
2. 0P6BIMG.zip method
3. Nandroid method
I got to go now ... good luck

Thanks a TON ckpv5. I followed your instructions & reinstalled HTC Sync Manager, then connected the cable to a USB 2.0 port instead of 3.0. The RUU method you originally suggested worked like a charm. I now have stock HTC software, stock recovery just like I wanted. I then did an OTA to the latest software. When I sell my device in a few days, I'll be sure to follow your tip and run the latest 6.12.1540.4 RUU to clear off all the old OTA files.
Many thanks again for your help - hopefully others will see the 3 solutions you posted.

Soft Brick No OS

Hello XDA,
I have an HTC one m8 in my possession which i am trying to unbrick but i'm having some issues.
The phone has custom recovery Philz
I have no SD card available to me at the moment
I have relocked the bootloader to try and run the RUU 'RUU_M8_UL_M60_SENSE70_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_6.12.1540.4'
installer as part of my efforts to unbrick, but this doesn't work, the RUU installer gets stuck at 0% while 'Sending'.
Any help would be much appreciated

Not enough info. Do a fastboot getvar all, and post the results (be sure to delete IMEI and serial numbers, as these are private info).
In particular, need (at a minimum):
CID
MID
s-off or s-on
firmware (main) version
hboot number
radio number
Bootloader status (locked, relocked, unlocked)
Original version (CID, MID) if those numbers have been modified
Also, did you try the RUU just once, or multiple times? A number of folks have reported it hanging on sending, but then it will run properly on a subsequent attempt.

Thanks for the reply, here is all the information i could acquire.

The RUU you stated in the top post won't work (its the RUU for the Developer's Edition). The RUU needs to match your CID and MID, meaning you need the RUU for the Euro version, which doesn't have Marshmallow yet.
Best bet is to run the Lollipop RUU for the Euro version (4.16.401.10) which can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376

Try running it again. RUU is known to hang from time to time, then work on subsequent attempts.
If it still doesn't work, try another PC, as suggested above. Win7 and USB 2.0 have the best chance of success.
Or you can download the zip version, rename to 0P6BIMG.zip and put it on the phone. Reboot to bootloader, and it should install.

I managed to reach 1/7 through the RUU.exe and gave me a 155 error.
I don't have a Windows 7 computer avaliable to me only Windows 10.
I could try buying an SD card, putting the rom onto the SD card, unlock the bootloader and run the custom recovery again and try to install the from from the SD card?
It also appears there is TWRP and Philz recovery on this device, could this be the cause of any problems?

You can do that, but you'd have to use a Kitkat ROM, as your firmware is (old) Kitkat. And you would be stuck on the KitKat ROM until you updated the firmware.
I think its better to get the RUU to work, such as adb push the RUU zip to the phone's internal storage, and run in bootloader.

Its one or the other, you can't have both (TWRP and Philz) on the phone at the same time.
Do you mean, is it the cause of RUU not running? NO.

Actually, I'm realizing (reading in another thread) that the RUU zip needs to be on a removable SD, not on internal storage (haven't actually done it this way, I always use the RUU.exe).
From what I understand, put the 0p6bimg.zip on the SD card (as you mentioned, you will need to buy one) then boot into bootloader, and it will install.
Another alternative, you can apparently also fastboot flash the RUU:

A ROM or an RUU? What file exactly?
Post a screenshot of the adb commands and responses, if you can.

Hi again,
Went and got myself and SD card and put cm13 on it from which i've loaded the rom and got myself a working phone now.
I went ahead an ran the RUU after installing cm13 and the RUU ran perfectly.
It seems using the SD card was the best option for me.
Thanks Redpoint73 for all the help so far.
P.S it seems my m8 is a retail version as the stock rom i installed has a demo application that wipes the phone everyday, but this is an easy solution as i will just install another custom os or something. i just can't use stock. :<

What "stock ROM" are you referring to?
The ROM installed by the RUU you stated in Post #1 shouldn't be doing this.

Hello, i am having a big trouble here
I was trying to format my phone but the bootloader's screen does not appear, it's been a while, when I enter the bootloader screen is just black, but the options work , I entered on recovery screen and went wipe, ticked all the options and I wipe , now my phone does not show anything, only black screen.
When i press power+up for 15 seconds, the cell shakes, i can flash recovery using fastboot by cmd, i can use anything with fastboot, but if i try something with adb, it says that i dont have adb devices. Can i solve my problem using fastboot option? i already flash a recovery by fastboot, but i cant enter on recovery, i can enter on fastboot reboot-bootloader for example.
Someone can help me plz?
Thx for attention. And sorry for bad english hehehe

This is normal, and as it should be. adb command only work within OS and recovery, adb command do NOT work in bootloader.
I've seen a few reports of this issue (black screen in bootloader, although the options work if you select them "blindly"). If an RUU exists for your version, I would try to run that RUU, and see if that helps.

RUU is ideal to flash in fastboot mode. So being in fastboot mode (even if you can't see the screen) is a good thing.

Either should work under the proper conditions below:
1) Older RUU for your version may fail with Error 155. Going back to pre-MM by RUU usually requires flashing the older fimrware.zip, then RUU in order to bypass Error 155.
2) S-off alone is not enough to flash another version's RUU. You need to change the CID, and possibly the MID (if its different from what the RUU requires). But those aren't difficult with s-off.
Now, whether either one of those will help your issue (blank screen on bootloader) is the big question. But I'd say RUU is your best bet at a fix.

Just changing the CID is not enough to run that RUU, you need to match the Dev Edition MID as well. Instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708581
The 4.17.1540.9 RUU is Lollipop. So it will probably fail with Error 155 as I already point out (Item 1 in my last post) forcing you to flash the firmware seperately, then RUU again. You're adding more complexity than needed (for no good reason). Therefore, I'd suggest the Dev Edition MM RUU 6.12.1540.4, if you are going to convert to Dev Edition (CID, MID, etc.). RUU 6.12.1540.4 linked at the bottom of the following: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8/news/
No need to relock the bootloader. This isn't required to RUU since you are s-off (only required to RUU when s-on). And I also do not recommend to lock the bootloader. There is no benefit to doing so in your case (since its not required to RUU) and an unlocked bootloader gives you more options if you run into more issues (you can flash custom recovery, etc.). So locking the bootloader is a waste of steps and time, and limits your options.

adb command don't work in bootloader, as I already stated.
Do you still have TWRP custom recovery (its not clear, based on your descriptions so far). If so, boot into recovery, and try adb commands.

First .. your device is not a CDMA device, it is a GSM.
What you can try to fix that bootloader with black screen ... flash full signed 6.20.709.2 firmware.zip.
You can get the full signed firmware in my thread (post #5) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
