are you s-off ? is your phone a GSM M8 ?

Did you try the other method, just renaming the RUU to 0p6bimg.zip (<a 0 (Zero) not a capital o (O), naturally...)
What error do you get when the flashing of the RUU fails?
Like mentioned by clsA said, adb devices won't work in fastboot mode, it should be "fastboot devices" to check if it's connected

You changed CID and MID I take it?
CID - GOOGL001
MID - 0P6B17000
Would have helped a bit if we had an idea what the error was.

try and unplug the phone from the pc and hold volume up + power for 10 seconds
when the phone reboots try the ruu again .. if the bootloader says RUU in red don't do the fastboot oem rebootRUU command just go straight to flashing
The RUU flashes very slow are you waiting long enough ?

you have the file renamed just copy it to your Ext - sdcard and let the bootloader flash it
don't forget to delete or rename it on the sdcard before you reboot again or it will flash it again

Yeah this pretty much tells me you didn't properly read the guide to converting your device to GPE. When I mentioned "the 0p6bimg.zip" method I kind of figured you'd know to place it on SD Card and reboot into bootloader so that the bootloader can pick up the .zip file and flash it from there. Flashing in from RUU sort of gave it away there
Method 1
No computer required. Everything else still required. s-off, super CID/gpe CID etc..
1. Rename the RUU zip file 0p6bimg.zip (if your hboot is looking for a different name then rename it to whatever it's looking for)
2. Place the zip on your external SD card
3. Power off your phone
4. Boot into Hboot (hold down vol down as you power on the device)
5. it will load the zip and ask you if you want to proceed
6. Say yes
7. Wait
8. Profit

plug the phone in fastboot, you should see fastboot usb in red.
Open a cmd as admin or terminal as root in the pc
type: fastboot oem rebootRUU (you will get a black splash with silver htc)
fastboot flash zip "nameoffile.zip" (no quation marks)
Once it is done (it says OKAY. finished in the CMD session)
fastboot reboot
Make sure that u are in the same folder (in CMD) where the zip file is...This will only be feasible for a RUU...not a rom. It also works for radios and CWM recovery....:good:

It shouldn´t take that long. Make sure that you are using the oem cable. That USB ports are working fine and there´s no other stuff connected to your USB ports.

Many thanks!
I too had this boot problem on a bad flash through the Hack Kit
(my fault by the way). From power on it took 20 mins to get to the first white HTC screen . Then a further 10 mins to start normal boot.
Apart from the LONG boot, everything worked perfectly. Using TermEm I could boot into bootloader and recovery. The rom, IceColdSandwich worked perfectly in every respect but the corrupted boot was doing my head in.
Using your tutorial, I managed to flash the correct bootloader and now all is good.
hboot before was 0.85.2007
hboot after is 0.85.0024
Sorry if this is a long post but I think it is worth it. Here is a log of the fastboot process:

I have to say that the timings, because of the LONG boot, are completely wrong, . I was tempted to pull the plug on a number of occasions but I gave myself a talking to and went for a coffee.
The whole process took about 2 hours and I am now the delighted owner of a normal booting DHD.
To anyone who wants to attempt this procedure, the watchword is patience. Whenever you think nothing is happening, DO NOTHING!
The different stages will eventually happen just as laid out as per Glevitan. Good luck with your attempt.
Once again, many thanks.
Edit: Just an afterthought, at one stage Windows had a failed attempt at installing usb drivers that ended up as an 'Unknown Device'. Just ignore it and keep going.
Edit: I just tried again and it worked, nevermind!
Just fyi: if you get an error after flashing the ZIP, just flash it again.
Thanks! This was helpful.

Oke try this :
Download this ruu
http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/1...24-radio-5120416229-release-296434-signedexe/
Then put the phone in the bootloader and relock it :
Fastboot oem lock
Keep the phone in the locked bootloader (you also see a warning sign/text)
Now right click the ruu.exe on the pc and select "run as administrator"
It should flash the phone back to stock completely (kernel,rom and recovery)

Read my post !!! You don't need to wipe anything ! Relock the bootloader (check that it says relocked) and run the RUU !!!
You have no business in the recovery at this point !
QUESTION 1:
What does the top of the bootloader say, does it say ENDEVOURU ?
QUESTION 2:
Did you flash anything to the phone from another forum ?

Ok now I have successfully locked and exe uted the RU. Then the phone Booted but every single process is getting FC!
Okey, your phone should be 100% stock ! Boot into the bootloader and perform a factory reset, reboot after that and check again. If its still FCing its a fault that we can't solve with software.

[Q] update hboot

Hello people!
Im jctjepkema, pretty new on this site, but i always scrolled through the pages, for the news and stuff. Now since yesterday i bought the HTC Desire HD from my father because i need a second phone for my private stuf. Now i want to root it because it is fun^^. I have done some galaxy's and was always easy job for me. However i can't get the HTC to unlock it's bootloader. I think i have the htc europe rom, however mine is a little newer, I have the 3.12.405.2 so I can't use the RUU from htcdev to update my hboot from 2.00.0027 to 2.00.0029, becuase for the htcdev bootloader unlocker i need hboot 2.00.0029 right? my android version is 2.3.5 and sense is 3.0. Does anybody know how i can upgrade my hboot so i can unlock this bootloader?
I hope you can help me! and thanks in advance!!!!
Greetings Jctjepkema

If I do this, will i end up with a locked bootloader?
no,just updated (be sure your hboot is now 2.00.27, do not use if it´s 0.85)
then you have to unlock using htc-dev
P: D : if your hboot is 0.85 use this https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/55810636/rom.zip
hdc-dev rru can only unlock the bootloader if I have a stock kernel, right?
update de hboot
register in htcdev.com
reboot in fastboot and type
fastboot oem get_identifier_token
submit the token to htcdev and wait to receive the mail with the unlock code
put it in the same place as before
then type
fastboot flashh unlocktoken unlock_code.bin
press yes in the device and go on
thats all, you are unlocked
Now you have to change the recovery and flash superuser or another Rom

S-off, Relocked and no Root (SOLVED)

Hi guys,
I flashed stock back to my phone and relocked the bootloader by "fastboot oem lock".
I been stuck with this for the last 2 days searching for solution on how to get my phone unlocked and rooted again.
This is what I have tried so far:
1. Rumrunner 1.10.605.10 and 1.10.605.15 firmware (flashed 1.10.605.10 and updated to 15) - Run just fine, but it does not change anything on the phone. Still shows RELOCKED S-off and NO Root.
2. Firewater (temp-root method) - Temproot: Root acquired. Firewater: "there really isn't a helluva lot to do here. bye bye"
3. Flashing CM recovery - failed remote not allowed
Could someone please help me to get back Root access and UNLOCK my phone?
Thank you in advance.
If your s-off, all you have to do is fastboot flash a custom recovery.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery_file.img
Then flash superuser zip thru recovery. Then you will be rooted. Also it is a myth that you need to relock the bootloader to do an ruu, so that wasnt really needed. Not sure exactly how to unlock the bootloader again.

I have tried to flash recovery several times, and both TWRP and CWM gives the same error: FAILED remote not allowed
Code:
sending 'recovery' (8784 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.097s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)

I tried the following recoveries:

Ok try this then.
1. Download this file http://vzw1files.dyndns.org/RECOVERIES/twrp/Twrp_2.6.3.4_RUU_Mode.zip, and place it on your pc in the same folder as fastboot.exe and adb.exe. Rename it to recovery.zip
2. Connect the phone to the pc and open a cmd prompt to where the files are, and type the following.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Wait for hboot.
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Wait for grey HTC logo.
Code:
fastboot flash zip recovery.zip
Wait for cmd window to say it has finished.
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
3. Hit power button to select bootloader, and then use the power button again to select recovery.
If all is well you should boot to TWRP 2.6.3.4. Then flash Superuser http://vzw1files.dyndns.org/Superuser/superuser.zip and you will be rooted.

Enable USB Debugging in Settings.
To do so, go to build information and tap it 7 times.
This will enable the Developer options in settings.
In there, check the box for Usb Debugging.
You should then be able to fastboot flash the recovery as per usual.
Good luck! :good:

[Q] Can not flah Stock ROM

Hi,
I can not successfully run RUU ROM. I though, that ruu can fix almost everything, but everytime I got error message 140. Before 3 month I download stock rom and successfully used it, but now the same rom doesnt work (from this site: http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Ace ).
Bootloader is relocked.
Main problem is that after "standart" restart phone stuck on white screen with htc logo. If I restart to bootloader, via fastboot push boot.img to phone, than phone works almost wel.. ...until next restart.. :/
I know only one way how to fix - via stock rom. Or does exist any next solution?
I try to use this stock rom:
RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_225512_signed.exe
(before 3 month works perfect, now I got error 140...)
Here is my phone info:

Thanks all for tips
You mean fastboot falsh boot boot.img (don't do that on S-on device)
try:
Step 1)
after runing ruu.exe in windows temp folder you can find room.zip
copy it to another location (in folder where you have fastboot and adb)
close ruu.exe
Step2)
If you are in android
adb reboot oem-78
or If you are in hboot (fastboot)
fastboot oem rebootRUU
when your phone restart and get in ruu flash mode
fastboot flash zip room.zip

If I am understand well:
1) conect phone to pc, run instalation ruu
2) during instalation process find in win/temp folder rom.zip
3) copy this file tinto folder with adb files
4) cancel instalation
5) in phone run bootloader than fastboot
6) run command prompt in folder with adb and rom files, than run "fastboot oem rebootRUU"
7) wait a few minute until instalation end
8) run phone, than go to fastboot and from command prompt run "fastboot flash zip room.zip"
9) and now phone should be repaired
Is that right?
btw: if I want to turn on my phone, every time I have to flash boot.img via fastboot otherwise phone didnt start..

Info pharsing musn't take to long. Maybe max min. or two.
Do you get any green stripe under HTC logo in black screen?
I didn't see that anytime.
In this step I think you can stop it with unplaging cable close cmd plug cable again and type fastboot reboot or try just close cmd open it again and type the same.
But never ever pull out battery. Rather unplug cable and wait that phone loose battery power. With pulling out battery you can burn eMMC disk.
After you reboot phone, you can try again.

Yes, I try several times with same result - nothing happens..
I try for shure again stock rom and still not working. Error 155.
What actually mean "INFOzip info parsing"?
btw: how I can recognize, that eMMC disk is ok or corrupt?
Error 155 gets when either your bootloader is unlocked or u r using the wrong RUU
Factory reset your phone to remove any non-stock stuff from the ROM and try again.
If file fail with error don't get out from ruu, just start flasihng again.
Sometimes you have to flash twice in a row to get it.
After it's done type fastboot reboot-bootloader (takes you back to fastboot)
Do Factory reset again.
If you failed with flashing try with difrent rom.
INFOzip info parsing means that he is checking if room.zip is ok.
"btw: how I can recognize, that eMMC disk is ok or corrupt?"
If you change settings, contacts, alarm etc.. and when you shut down your phone, pull out your battery, wait one to two minutes, put it back in, power on phone and if you get everything back like it was before you maide changes it's probably bad eMMC. If everything get remembered you don't have problem with eMMC.
But error you get dosn't have anything with eMMC. With bad eMMC you can correctly flash ROM and after restarting your phone you can see that you haven't flash anything.
The reason is that phone first push everything to RAM and than on eMMC (because eMMC is slow).
When you push some data to phone and it get RAM you have it but because (and if not) eMMc can't save it, after restart you have nothing.

If I am understant well:

Yes, it is what I am wanted to say.. sorry for my english.
I try it exactly how is here described but it doesnt help.. (tryed other rom.zip)
I foud this manual: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2367322 but if I want to run aahk, command prompt reply:
Code:
File: "tools\bin\fre3vo" is missing or corrupt.
Download and extract again
Some virus scanners remove the necessary exploits for temproot.
Disable virus scan if that happens.
Pokračujte stisknutím libovolné klávesy...
I think only one way how this fix it is to gain S-OFF. Or does exist any other way?
..but I dont know how..

You can try with AAHK.
Here's the link for fre3vo: http://www.4shared.com/zip/nBCVzHMl/Fre3vo
If AAHK tell you that some files in tools\bin\ driectory missing, just find tham on google and download them.
Always turn off your virus scanners and HTC sync when you use aahk.
