Method via Recovery
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Vision:_CyanogenMod

are you true soff? did you root following the wiki guide? do you still have access to the recovery?

To root I used
cyanogenmod.com/wiki/TMobile_G2:_Rooting
I dont know what true soff is
Holding power button and volume down i can boot into fast boot hboot does not let me select recovery.
clockwork mod and rom manager do not show on apps listed.
looks like reverted to stock tmobile rom but s off and htc vision show up so I may be still rooted?

1. True S-OFF is a permanent type of S-OFF. There are ways to do it temporarily. It looks like yours is perm S-OFF.
2. From the instructions that you followed, did you have to put a PC10IMG file onto the root of your SD card? If that file is still there, the bootloader will always look to that file and not allow anything else to be done.
3. Clockwork Mod will not show in an apps list. It replaces the recovery of your phone. It is not an app. As for ROM manager, I'm not sure what to tell you. Maybe if you can pull logs from your phone we can work on that.
4. Just because S-OFF shows up does not mean you are rooted. If you flashed the stock T-Mobile ROM then chances are you lost root privileges. You can do a quick check by looking in your app drawer for the "Superuser" app. If it is there, you are still rooted. If not, most likely you are not.

Oh! your smart…Yes PC10IMG is still on SD card.
As is superuser.apk and clockworkmod and titamium backup
"Superuser" app is not in app drawer
how would i pull the logs

take the image off sd card and you will be allowed back into recovery, then do a full wipe and flash rom of choice via recovery

ok took off image and it allowed me into recovery now i have a cool picture of the phone with a red triangle and exclamation point
update: pulled battery turned it on using only power button goes to tmobile stock screen and works fine. do i need to re root and flash new rom?

need to flash a custom recovery again via fastboot. get the .img from somewhere in xda (or google it)
put recovery.img in the same folder as fastboot.exe on computer
connect your phone via usb and boot into fastboot
open cmd on computer change directories to where fastboot and recvoery image are
type fastboot devices (just to make sure its working)
then type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
then
fastboot reboot bootloader
now boot into recovery
now flash rom of choice via recovery

Hello, thanks for all the help.
Am I using ADB AND FASTBOOT or SDK to put recovery.img in the same folder as fastboot.exe on computer

sorry a bit confused on what you are asking
after downloading the sdk package you will find a folder probably under platform tools with adb and fastboot .exe in it
this is the folder you want the recovery image
this is also the folder you want to open cmd
right click in the folder and choose open comand here
then you should be ready to use fastboot
(another option is to change enviromenta variables so you dont need to worry about what folder fastboot is in in the future but not necessary right now)

Any suggestions?

did you get the recovery in an .img or a .zip? if its zipped extracted it
alsom make sure it is named recovery.img
windows adds the file extention so you may just need to name it recovery
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium

It came as a disk image file not zipped, until I changed the file to just recovery I got an error cannot load.
Once changed it loaded started recovery and failed.
Ive been reading about eng hboot as mine shows "s-off" not "eng s-off" but I don’t know how it applies to this.

did you follow the htc official dev bootloader unlock?
or did you root following the wiki?
if you did the htc way you are not true soff and you will need to do this first. look for nipqers directions

well you can try downloading superuser and rommanager from the market and see if you can install recovery that way. i think there is a busybox installer app in the market too but im not sure
you can also try with adb

I used Root checker from the market and it said i do not have proper root access

What method do u suggest to regain Root?

Error when flashing RUU?

Hi,
I've brought a desire cheap as a temporary phone while my sensations off being repaired (Smashed screen!) It came with a CM7 ROM installed which i'm not keen on, so i'm attempting to flash the RUU_Brav2_UK_1.20.207.1_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_124865 from the RUU thread on here. However, it gets about 3 minutes in, then on my laptop says "ERROR [110]: FILE OPEN ERROR. The Rom Update Utility cannot open the requested files or the files are damaged.
The phone stays a black screen with a white warning symbol in each corner, rebooting into recovery has the following information:

You have cm7r2 hboot which gives you only 145MB for system partition and RUU requires stock partition table (250MB for system).
Flash alpharev stock hboot via fastboot, it can be obtained here:
alpharev.nl
After that run RUU, it should work perfectly.
Plus:
Reconsider using some other RUU the one you used is history old. Try with 2.3 RUU.

Thanks for that, i'm used to my sensation for flashing ROMs etc, i've just read up on this phone as I didn't realise there is different hboots to make different file tables!

OK, i've tried to use both alpharev and revolutionary, when I downloaded the img file for alpharev I can't get it to load, when I mount it, it just loads a folder with no executables, and revolutionary just sits on waiting for device?

Hi,
Yeah, i've tried installing them but nothing seemed to happen, i've gone in to device manager and changed drivers so instead of "My HTC" it now shows as "Android Bootloader Interface" but it still sits on "Waiting for device." Are there any ROMS that use the CM7 r2 available as a RUU package?

Can't Flash a custom recovery (Rooted with HTCDev) 2.3.5

Hello
I recently started the root process by unlocking my bootloader utilizing the HTCDev Method with S-On (HBOOT- 2.18.0001). Now I'm unlocked! The next step (I guess) is to flash a custom recovery which I'm having difficulty doing. Granted, there are several ways to install a custom recovery. I utilized two of those ways, 1) Through Bootloader and 2) via ROM Manager; both have proved unsuccessful for me.
The Bootloader way - -
I placed PC36IMG.zip on the root of my sd card.
Selected FastBoot
Got a response, "Main Version is older! Update Fail!" Do you want to reboot device?"
Via Rom Manager - -
Download "Rom Manager" from the Android market
Select "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery"
Result, An error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands!
Not sure what I'm doing wrong, can anyone help me install a custom recovery?

You don't have to select fastboot.
Just put the recovery on your sd card, not in any folders.
make sure it's named pc36img.zip
Boot to recovery (Hold Volume down and power until hboot shows up)
It'll scan, find the file and ask you to update, hit yes
I advise this recovery: PC36IMG_ra-supersonic-4.3-smelkus-tmdirt2.zip
http://d-h.st/tbF
Don't use ROM Manager for flashing alternate recoveries, btw. It's based on Clockwork Mod, which isn't a good recovery for the EVO

Ok. Will try later tonight and will let you know the outcome.

First off I'm a noob...Im working on a metro flashed evo 4g on 2.2froyo and metrodroid 2.2 rom.It has some sort of hboot recovery and green clockworkmod recovery 2.?.? which both seem to work horribly...I'm trying to 1. Install latest 3g compatible android os Gb or Ics? 2.Flash a better recovery...one that works. 3. Flash a nice metro rom cyanogen or like that.
Ive read so many posts in different forums and couldn't find a case quite like mine or a up to date link.If someone could help me with recovery I think I can make due. Any other help is greatly appreciated

You have to get the .img of your recovery and place it where you have your android sdk aka adb and fast boot and place them in the same directory. Then power down to the boot loader on your phone then using the volume keys select fast boot. Plug your phone into your PC. In a command prompt navigate to where your fastboot file is and type fast boot flash recovery (name of recovery image).img

Thanks, but here's the thing... 1. I've tried flashing other roms/recoveries on this phone via the recovery thats there now and the zip file is never in the folder where it should be (downloads) when I go to choose the file to flash its never there just some other unrelated zip. 2. The root or metrodroid v2.2/kernel that's there now took away all file managing apps (think free/stock files app) I can't even use appsaver to l load it...because theres no way to manage the files...yay! And 3. Theres no data/mms...I plan on flashing the fix along with a custom rom/kernel...it's the recovery! Please help thanks in advance.

You have to extract the recovery image out of the pc36img.zip file
Sent from my EVO 4G using xda app-developers app

Windows hides file extensions for known file types. What this means is that there is a hidden .zip at the end of your pc36img.zip so windows actually sees the file as pc36img.zip.zip
take the .zip you can see off of the file and try again - or I suppose you could change the command to reflect the extra .zip, but thats not really the "right" way to do it.
And if you are tyring to flash it directly with the phone that wont work either for two reasons 1) your phone does not recognize a file named.zip.zip also 2) if you are unlocked but s-on you cant flash that way, it needs to be done with fastboot. My phone is unlocked s-on and flashing the recovery was the hardest step to figure out because most guys decide to go full s-off and dont realize what the issue is...
It looks like you already got fastboot working so try this. Rename the recovery to "recovery.img" then the fastboot command would be
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
or if you dont rename the recovery file:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery (whatever the filename is)
you may also have to tell window to show file extensions for known file types, not sure how to do that in win 7, but im sure google does.

Same way you do it in every version of Windows.
Control Panel/Folder Options

OP, what software version are you on? If you're on version 5.07, the custom recoveries written for the older version (4.56, I think) won't work. Captain Throwback actually wrote two newer recoveries for the newer software version. I had the same problem with the error "Main Version is Older", until I flashed the new recovery. Also, I was UNLOCKED S-ON Hboot 2.18 and flashed the recovery through the bootloader without any issues. The new recoveries should be in the guide for rooting with Hboot 2.18. Just place the recovery file on the root of your SD card, make sure it's named PC36IMG.zip, then enter the bootloader. When it asks if you want to update, press the corresponding key for 'yes', and the new recovery will be installed.

Boot into bootloader and try to select RUU and se what happens. You could try to flash a ruu using the bootloader method. I'm still not home so try to read and see what you can get from this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396229 there is says how you can install recovery and rom through bootloader.

Download recovery here:
https://dl.dropbox.com/s/xvpefd1yccx81lu/4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1.0.0.5_RC8.zip?dl=1
It's the latest 4ext recovery.
Rename the zip to PD98IMG and put into the root of the sdcard (not any folder ) and boot into bootloader. This is also covered in the guide i think.

I formated the sd card and put the recovery file in it but it didn't work!!
I still have the same screen
nothing works please help!!!

RUU

can I flash the recovery with android flasher?

Did you try the tutorial i posted?

Try what muikkuman said.
When you tried to flash the recovery, did you place the pd98img.zip and then tried to get into hboot? Were you able to get into hboot?
If not you can use the hack kit to flash a ruu/return to stock.

I am not able to get into hboot! and the hack kit says:
Phone not plugged in
OR
Driver not installed
OR
USB Debugging not enabled.
but my drivers are installed

Hmm...

Uninstall the antivirus program, uninstall the drivers and then reinstall the drivers...some people have had this issue and its something i advise a good bit of the time and it resolves the issue.....

Or you could simply disable your anti virus program before unzipping ace hack kit and use the htc drivers contained in the hack kit.

Bricked Desire HD?

Flash any ROM from recovery. You are still S-OFF. If you lost recovery, then reflash one. Use the guide in my signature to guide (section A-OFF no recovery)
Being S-OFF should leave you flash any ruu you want, but get working phone first and then try again.

Where are you getting the ruu from? That has to be a signed zip file. Have you tried an exe ruu file?
Btw, why are you trying to get back to,stock?

I've tried running a bunch of different RUUs but it gives me the 155 error and I run it when the htc screen is up.
Update:
I went into the boot menu and ran the RUU, it has installed but it is a real old version of android, how do I update it?

Do not try to flash a froyo ruu...you will mess your bootloader unless your device was shipped with that version. What version are trying to update to?

In your case, you may be able to skip right to step 5, so I'd try the htcdev stuff first. If you don't get an oem identifier key, you'll have to start from step 1.
1) You need http://www.mobfirmware.com/dl/behtas... dhd/rom.zip
Move it to where your adb files are.
Then do the following from adb:
2) adb reboot oem-78 >> this will put you in RUU download mode. I found you can run this command from CWM Recovery. Though... if you don't have any recovery I'm unsure how to hit RUU download mode. There is an .exe from HTC Dev that'll do it from Fastboot, so there must be a command (fastboot reboot oem-78 maybe??)
Once you're at the black screen w/ silver HTC logo, type:
3) fastboot flash zip rom.zip >> This will change your hboot to one w/ an oem signature. Once it's successful, type:
4) fastboot reboot
5) Now, you'll need to go to htcdev.com/bootloader and follow the instructions to get your KEY (fastboot oem get_identifier_token) and paste it to HTCDev to get your boot unlock bin file emailed to you. Follow the last steps to unlock your bootloader.
The steps are something like: boot to fastboot> type oem command> copy / paste key to htcdev> receive email> download .bin file to adb folder> run command to unlock w/ .bin file (it's on the htcdev site).
NOW you can flash the custom recovery or boot imgs without getting the "Signature Verified Fail" Error.
Goodluck! I just went through this whole process of no CWM and no ROM so you can get your phone up and going w/ a custom rom from where you're stuck! Don't give up!

Why would he want to unlock the bootloader when he is already S-OFF?
Besides, it is not possible to flash ruu with an unlocked bootloader. And signature fail will always be there. Even custom roms are signed. Of course not HTC signature, digitally signed.
