Try the revolutionary method for getting S-OFF http://revolutionary.io

i have downloaded it and it says waiting for the device ,, i have the drivers installed and i am in the fastboot usb ... why it says waiting for device ? windows 8.1 x 64 is my system />?

Windows 8 is the problem, ul need to google the drivers for it, windows 8 is a nightmare with fastboot. If u can get ur hands on a laptop/pc with windows 7/vista etc it would be much easier.

same thing i installed the drivers on win 7 64 bit and it still says waiting for device ... what can be the problem and how to troubleshoot that ?

Make sure to install these drivers as well: http://downloads.unrevoked.com/HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe
Try to do it with these steps:
You'll want to make sure your phone has USB debugging enabled: Menu > Settings > Applications > Development > make sure it's checked
Go to http://revolutionary.io/
Select your operating system (Windows or Linux only at this time)
The download should start right away and you'll be prompted to obtain a beta key (we'll cover this in a sec)
Extract the .zip file
Run the file "revolutionary"
A command prompt should appear and ask you for the beta key (the serial number should appear right next to this)
Go back to the Revolutionary site, select your OS, device, HBOOT version, and enter the serial number from the previous step
Generate the beta key
Copy the beta key over to the command prompt window, press enter, and wait patiently. It took a little bit for the phone to reboot into fastboot and proceeded to reboot fastboot 4 times. On the third time S-OFF was shown.
The command prompt window will then ask if you want to download and install ClockworkMod Recovery, type "y" for yes and press enter
Congratulations, you have an HTC EVO 3D with S-OFF and a custom recovery installed! However, you don't have root yet!
Reboot the phone. It may go through the hands free activation process, but just let it do it's thing.
Follow this link to download a .zip you'll need to obtain root
Transfer it to your SD card
Reboot the phone into recovery
Flash the zip from there, reboot, and you're all done!

mate the phone doesnt boot to the operating system and recovery how can i use that options ... i wrote you that in the very first post .... any other suggestions please ?

Dude !!!
Dont post this type of posts in this thread
others will think that you flashed the recovery and got bricked your phone
please edit the above thread and tell your actual problem like you flashed using kdz updater and the bricked.I have already PMed.
After clicking on the .bat file, it does put gscript app on my phone, but it can't find the script.sh file on the sd card (there's no gscript folder as well).
Should I try the installer again? Create the folder and copy the file?
Nevermind, it's working now. I just don't know how to keep going from there. How do I install a new ROM?
After I click on the script, it does blue screen and then reboots, but not into recovery mode it just starts up like normal.
Thanks .

I had this problem too (tho i flashed manually) but when i reflashed it worked fine.But before you try reflashing it try to boot the phone into recovery using ADB
Here is how:
Plug your phone in and enable debugging.
Then open ADB and type in su and hit enter after that type reboot recovery and again enter.If you flashed the recovery correctly your phone should boot into recovery. Hope that helps
Hello!
Your tutorial is quite good and very helpful.
Everything worked as you described.
But, after the blue screen, I had an issue: my phone stops at Fastboot mode. Then I get the message "udc_start()" and it stops there, nothing happens. It doesn't start android. Can you tell how to proceed from there?
Thank in advance!
Best,
F
does this work???

If ripping out the battery didn't help then you need to flash the recovery via fastboot.Since your phone automatically boots into bootloader ( the udc_start () state) you need to download fastboot flasher ( you can find it via google or xda search) and flash recovery from there.Just make sure you are flashing the right recovery.And then from the recovery you can flash a custom rom.

You boot into recovery and navigate to backup (in order to make nandroid backup-you can skipp this step but you won't have a stock android backup in case you dont like the new rom or it doesn't work) than navigate to flash zip from sdcard(obviously you need the rom on the sdcard) and then select the rom and then confirm flash.After that you should see a yellow progress bar after the flash is complete you reboot your device.Oh and just in case you didn't know you navigate using up and down volume buttons you confirm with menu button and you cancel/go back with back button

People say it does personally i haven't tried it (because i flashed mine manually) but i highly doubt that Vivek would post something that doesn't work.

I did it differently because there is no working link of the recovery.zip
after rooting the phone with gingerbreak, simply download ROM Manager from play store and flash recovery from there.
hi i need original rom 2.2.2 for my phone in zip form so i can put on my sd card and flash dose anybody have this and if so could they upload it for me thanks
Works nicely! However, I had to follow the following procedure:
- Disconnect the USB cable
- Start in fastboot mode
- Type the command in the PC (it should says something like "Waiting for device")
- Connect the USB cable
Without using this procedure, I would get stuck in "Waiting for device". Hope it helps someone.

HTC Stock Rom Recovery Android 2.3.3 & 2.3.5

Hey guys,
for all those who want to have the orginal stock rom back here's a
recovery by me. It's Android 2.3.3 and 2.3.5. Flashable through cwm 5.
Android 2.3.3 Version: here
Android 2.3.5 Version: here
OC Kernel (806 MHz): here <= ONLY 2.3.5
You will find the downloads if you click "To Downloads" and then choose the one you want
Click the banner if you want to support me !
For me it works very stable and smoothly. If it doesn't boot and redirects you to the recovery: wipe data, cache and dalvik again and retry.
Questions please here in this thread and NOT per pn!
Best regards,

hmm.
could you please do the fowwowing ?
1. open command window in the directory of the recovery tool.
2. run "fastboot devices" and check if your device is listed.
3. if not, get the newtest fastboot .exe from here --> android sdk
it should be in xxx\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools. also copy adb.exe and AdbWinApi.dll and AdbWinApiUsb.dll into the recovery folder.
4. try again and run "fastboot devices".
5. if your device is listed : start flashing.

Well i see alot of people get problems, i would say that you will need to install an adb driver onto your computer to fix part of the problem and to make sure you have a memory card inserted with at least 15mb of free space inside of it.

NOT HARD TO CLICK THANKS

[TUTORIAL][S-ON]Howto Downgrade Any HBOOT to 1.03.001 or older (Downgrade to 2.3.3)

In this tutorial, I will show you how to downgrade Any HBOOT and Radio to "around" HBOOT 1.03.001 and Radio 7.48.36.1 or less with S-ON. How amazing is that!
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any damage that you bring to your android device! This will Downgrade you to Android 2.3.3!
1. Download these files:
*http://www.filefactory.com/f/7b4aa0a541dcf00f/
-look for your RUU for your Carrier for example I downloaded "RUU_Marvel_TMOUS_1.62.531.3_Radio_47.10f.35.3032"
*http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1530864
-Bootloader Controler, thank you theq86
*http://www.mediafire.com/?m546mkk0yp7cbdb
-Boot.img that we are gonna flash
*http://www.mediafire.com/?5lf77c7sposqkck
-System.img we are also gonna flash
*http://www.mediafire.com/?4o2dbgqbb2t30lh
-Extact it and place in your "C:/" drive
1a. Flash CWM Recovery or some other compatible recovery on your wildfire s
2.After theses files above have been downloaded, connect your wfs to computer via USB drive
3. open cmd and open up the folder you extracted in "C:/" drive Ex: cd c:/Android
4.Place boot.img and system.img in the root of the android folder
5. execute these commands
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
"its gonna take time so wait by looking at the bootlader screen at the top right"
IMPORTANT: After reboot it ill try to load Android Recovery but it cant since it has CWM Recovery, so it will load cwm recovery and say "E: Invalid command arguement" so all you have to do is reboot
after completed reboot, the rom is going to be buggy and gltchy so dont freak out YET
6. Place the bootloader Controller tool to the root of SD Card, DO NOT UNZIP!
7.Go into bootloader and enter your recovery, if your using cwm go to install zip from sd card>choose zip from sd card> look for the bl tool and flash it.
8.While attempting to flash it, there will be a Visual UI that popped up like a window, go to "Superversion" and press on that with your soft keys or Volume/Power Keys.
9. After Superversion update has completed reboot back into recovery and reattempt to install the bl tool, this time press on "LOCK" and wait for it to complete update and power down.
10.Open bootloader and you wil see "LOCKED OOW" at the top in hboot 1.08.0099 or "LOCKED" in hboot 1.09.0099, we are half way there
11. Now normal reboot to android and enable USB debugging if you havent done so.
12. Launch the RUU you downloaded and wait for it to complete the starting process. When completed starting up, accept all the notifications and continue to the update. Dont freak out when it keeps rebooting, its normal Wait for the update to complete then you quet done!
13. It will reboot and will show you the factory reset of android 2.3.3. After completing that you can now enter bootloader and see that you have downgrade like this for example:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
i used to be on hboot 1.08.0099
You are now Downgraded to Android 2.3.3 and Downgraded HBOOT + Radio with S-ON

it wont boot to the rom after flashing system and boot and keeps sending me to recovery nevermind got it to work thank for the post it seems to be that i had to wait a couple of minutes after flashing the system and boot and take the battery off and put it back it then i was able to boot to the rom and did the rest of the steps.

Yes this works any hboot but to downgrade, the hboot must be an unlockable version 1.08.0099 or 1.09.0099 that is unlocked.
From the image in the tutorial, I downgraded from hboot 1.08.0099 to 1.03.0001.
The PG76DIAG.nbh for s-off only works for cdma version of the wfs
it is workiiing, thanks

The update failed, and could have almost hard bricked your phone. Rerun the ruu in recovery and if it fails again, use the recovery option in the ruu

Htc one m8 useless after wipe data, no recognized from pc for fastbooting

I tried to install an update from HTC ( Lollipop 5.0 ) but It wasnt possible because my phone was rooted. I came with the status 7 error. Then while reading some articles, I found that in order to get rid off that error and to install a new rom or update I must wipe all data from my phone, even the system part for a clean installation so I wiped it.
After that , my phone freezes on htc white logo.
I can access to fastboot with the Power button an volume
It says
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***

And then the options
But when I go to recovery, the phone goes to Philz Touch ClockWorkMod screen
The version of Philz Touch is 6.57.8 and ClockWorkMod is v6.0.5.1
And when I tried to restore my phone, it says there's any backup files, so I cant restore to factory
As my phone can not be recognized by my pc because the OS can not run, I think I can not use One_M8_All-In-One_Kit_v2.0.
Is there any chance to get my HTC work again? I just dont care the Lollipop update now. I just want it to work again. I' ve been reading many articles during these 3 days but I dont know how to repair it yet.
Please help me
Pdt: I tried to add Images but the forum doesnt let me.

But there is Philz-tocuh in phone. Am I not going to mess things up if I install TWRP?
You're going to mess up more when you use One_M8_All-In-One_Kit_v2.0.
Just follow the guide if you want to fix your phone
or wait for someone else to help you if you insist to keep that outdated philz recovery
Good luck ... time to bed now .. good night
Oh Thanks. I didn't meant to be unpolite. It just I am very new on this. So I must first, get rid off the Philz bootloader and then install the TWRP, right?
Just install TWRP 2.8.1.0
It will replace Philz recovery, no need to do any other thing
No uninstall is needed
Ok. I got it. But, I can not figure it out how to run command to my phone because my pc does not recognize my phone. I have installed the htc drivers; however, as my phone just shows the htc logo I dont have any option to use MTP connection. Even, I tried to find and option for running commands in the fastboot screen , but there's any.
I assumed that the quick way to install TWRP in my phone will be copying the openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-m8.img into a SD CARD (an external one) and then trying to install that file through my phone. Am I right?

You need to be in bootloader fastboot mode, in order to run fastboot commands.

The TWRP webpage only has instruction for doing that with TWRP 2.8.4 or higher; and that's not the case, is it?

As I cannot run commands through my pc , how could I Install TWRP in my HTC and replace the ClockWorkMod ?

He said bootloader fastboot mode .. you're on bootloader hboot mode.
Press power once when on this hboot screen .. can you see the fastboot usb highlighted in red when connect to PC ?
And for your info, Philz recovery is able to restore a TWRP backup.
You just need to put the TWRP backup in correct folder TWRP/BACKUPS/YourPhoneSerialNo./theTWRPbackupFolderHere

Sorry, but could you tell me what file do I need to use to restore TWRP?
The only way I can move files into my phone is by using an sdcard and copy/paste them with AROMA filemanager which comes with Philz
What about your PC device manager ? Do you have MyHTC under Android USB Devices ?
Check your cable, HTC USB Drivers - Download HTC Sync Manager - http://www.htc.com/us/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx
Install then uninstall HTC Sync Manager but leave the drivers

Use a card reader to read/write a MicroSD with a PC.
And talking about your software version no. 1.57.598.2, I found someone with your version but unfortunately he was reluctant to upload his backup due to big size of 1.4gb and he didn't have the data quota to upload it. And now I believe he remains at 1.57.598.2 instead of updating it to 4.32.598.1
And there is RUU 0P6BIMG_M8_UL_K44_SENSE60_SECURITY_HTC_LA_AMX_SPA_ 1.57.598.2_R_Radio_1.16.2133156.UA15G_20.18m.4096. 07L_release_378222_signed.zip available at IR-File but now the one that has access to it seems no more active on M8 thread .. very unfortunate.

Now I have installed TWRP on my phone , yeei
And I found a .zip file called OTA-something. It looks like this is the lollipop room which caused all this problem. I tried to installed and then I came up with this:
It seems I messed up my phone with the root.
On the other hand I read in some articles that if I update the firmware, I could use another room. Is that true?
You can't use TWRP to do OTA update. It needs 1.57.598.2 stock ROM and stock recovery installed.
Where did you find that OTA zip ? Can you upload that for me ? I want to see what's inside it then I can give a better suggestion what the firmware update can do for you.
Is your device has a OS installed now ? Is it really that you wiped the OS before ?
Try make a backup with TWRP and see how it goes whether it manage to make backup or not.

Question Xiaomi K40 Became A Brick

Hi peeps, my Xiaomi K40 now became a brick because it can't be installed any ROM, I've tried using TWRP and also mi flash tool but nothing helps.
When using TWRP I've tried two methods:
1/ adb sideload
2/ Install from a zip file which is pushed to device using adb push command(because now the device doesn't have any OS)
But in both cases it shown:
Failed to mount '/system_root' (Block device required)
Failed to mount '/system_ext' (Block device required)
Failed to mount '/product' (Block device required)
Failed to mount '/vendor' (Block device required)
Failed to mount '/odm' (Block device required)

I've also tried to wipe all data using Advance Wipe option to repair the partition but no hope.
Any one has solution for this case? thanks in advance!
Flash your device in EDL mode.
Please refer to the post below on how to bypass edl mode authentication.
[GUIDE] How to bypass authentication and flash in EDL with NO auth for FREE!​
Thanks to VD171 for his post.
I think your device is having a Snapdragon Chipset. Sorry but you may try to search on google for contact to person who has authorised edl account to flash a Snapdragon based phone.

listen to me, first if you are on windows 10 you should disable driver signature enforcement on your pc search it on google after disabling you should restart your pc, next step is to install xiaomi flash tool latest (02262021) version after installing the software open it, at the right upper of the software you will see drivers click it and click install after installing, reboot your phone into fastboot mode using volume down and power button, connect your phone to pc and click refresh on xiaomi flash tool if you're phone is detected please come back here let me know

last week I was in a similar situation like yours just twrp and all partition screwed up.
well what saved me was to put dot os 5.2 on a USB c pen drive and then simply installing it from trwp (choosing USB pen as source) after literally 5-10 minutes phones came back to life.
let me know if it works for you.
also if twrp throws any error during installation just ignore them for me after flash completed phone booted just fine

I said USB pen to make sure you choose it from TWRP install I think the righ name is external storage or something similar anyway it seems you are doing things the right way I am quite sure u ll bring phone back to life.
I think muiu room is just fine, should it fails try crDroid or dot os (do not try arrow or lineage)
Bruh I have a very simple solution I guess it might help you
Well first update to latest official twrp custom recovey for your device then
Navigate to Wipe
advance Wipe
Select data and choose Repair or Change File System
Press Repair File System to see if this fixes the issue. If not, continue.
Press Change File System, choose Ext2, and swipe to confirm.
now switch back to Ext4 and swipe to confirm.
i hope this might help you BTW then flash your first custom rom using a sd card or usb if succeeded then flash every stuff as usual

Thanks, I've tried this before, unfortunately still can't solve my problem. Finally I decided to bring my phone to a technician.
Try fastboot erase userdata in cmd after taking your device to fastboot mode
Kinda check different twrp I think your twrp is having any problems plz flash your twrp once again
I hope this will surely work for you my friend.

Bro try different formats then change to Ext4 well try this twrp https://dl.twrp.me/alioth/twrp-3.6.0_11-0-alioth.img.html umm i hope this will help you out completely.
if you still have your fastboot mode (turn off then hold power + vol. down), you should check your pc driver if adb and fastboot driver installed properly, then try flashing stock rom (dont relock your bootloader), I think what cause the brick is encrypted storage that get accessed by twrp, even if you decrypt it using password, you can still brick the phone by manually mount some partition in twrp
Thank you all of your help, peeps. Finally I solved my problem by the help of a technician. Because only technician has access to Xiaomi internal tools, these are "Hardware-Level" which could help in these cases.

Hello, glad you solved your issue, but can you please explain briefly how hardware was bricked since you were already able to reach fastboot & twrp? Since it's known that when you can boot to fastboot, it's a softbrick
