can buzzdowngrade utility can help to gain soff.. please tell me any method to gain soff with minimum damage possibilities
Its not necessary to get S-OFF if you want to install custom ROMs or install overclock capable kernels. All you need is a Custom Recovery called ClockworkMod Recovery. You can flash Clockworkmod Recovery via Fastboot using this post as a guide:
- Download this attachment and extract it to any folder (eg: C:\fastboot)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...1&d=1308537074
- Download CWM IMG Image for Wildfire (Buzz) from here:
http://download.clockworkmod.com/rec...0.2.0-buzz.img
- Place that IMG file along with the 4 files from the attachment in the same folder you created
- Now, turn off your Wildfire, connect to PC, and turn on in HBoot
- Navigate to Fastboot and Select it
- Open a Command Prompt Window (Start > Run > cmd)
- Type the following one by one and press Enter (It is assumed you created the folder in C Drive and have named it fastboot)
- cd\
- cd fastboot
- fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-buzz.img
- This should produce 2 lines of code - SENDING RECOVERY and WRITING RECOVERY. If both states OK at the end, you should have CWM installed successfully after this.
Once you have CWM installed, follow this post to install Custom ROMS / Kernels:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8926457&postcount=4
However, if you necessarily want S-OFF, then yes, the BuzzDowngrade method posted by ieftm should work. That will get your HBoot to 1.01.0001, and then you can use Revolutionary to gain S-OFF.
No need of s -off
right now i m using an unlocked wildfire with s- on and cyanogenmod 7.01 in it.
just download ROM manager from android market and then download stabel release from cyanogen official site. copy to root of sd card . go to bootloader menu and install it
reply
as u told me to flash the go to the fast bot mode..i did whatever you told me in the reply to do. i did exactly the same procedure that you told me to do. but in the end there is a error came it was:
C:\fastboot>fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-buzz.img
sending 'recovery' (3032 KB)... OKAY [ 0.936s]

please reply stuck with error.
you didn't gave any reply as i asked you, in the above question and i have also send you two images in this...
firstly I searched for this and was unable to find it bizarrely (most likely cause I suck at searching forums) anyhow :
I have a HTC one X CID : HTC_023
HBOOT is : 0.95.0000
currently running android revolution HD 9.4.0
I bought this phone secondhand and its awesome but I would love to update to revolution 18.1 JB and am not sure exactly how to do it. I have read this here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32855238&postcount=29798 but that is to go from a stock rom to revolution, is it as simple as just :
2) Make sure you have your Unlock_code.bin file.
Relock your device using fastboot: fastboot oem lock
Enter OEM flash mode using fastboot: fastboot oem rebootRUU
On your phone you will see a black screen with silver HTC written in the middle
Flash firmware: fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
(You need to do this immediately twice)
When you see a full green bar below, you are done.
I am fearful of screwing up my phone so I thought I had better ask here and FTR as I didn't install the rom in the first place I don't have the Unlock_code.bin file. I have the revolution 18.1 rom downloaded. Also if I do this will I need to reinstall all my apps or can I do it and maintain all my current apps and settings? If I must reinstall all my apps I am sure I can find a forum thread here somewhere stepping me through that process.
any help will be appreciated and please - don't flame me too hard for being a n00b and/or asking something that has already been asked I couldn't find it - sorry in advance
You can take the Unlock_code.bin from htcdev, follow the steps and you are done.
However, when you go to flash ARHD, you lost all your apps and data (don't the sd) and you have to download it
Don't worry, HTC have made it so that it's almost impossible to screw up your phone
welp its screwed stuck at white htc o1e screen - thanks for the help greatly appreciated :crying:
Re: [Q] htc one x revolution HD 9.40 -> rev 18.1
Did you flash the boot.img for arhd18 after installing it.
What point in the process did you get stuck at.
Relock - fastboot oem lock
Ruu mode - fastboot oem rebootRUU
Flash firmware - fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Flash firmware again.
Reboot into fastboot
Unlock - fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin
Flash recovery - fastboot flash recovery name of recovery.IMG
Flash boot.img of new ROM - fastboot flash boot boot.img
Boot into recovery
Copy new ROM and install

Try this. Take the battery out and then put it back and turn the phone on.
Are you on CWM 4? If yes, its a bug in that version. When you charge the phone while turned off, to turn it on you'll have to take the battery out and put it back in.

I downloaded the zip and flashed it via Recovery - but this seems to fail (I don't get any error message, but it simply doesn't succeed).
I also tried unrevoked3.
Do I miss something? My "active time" with the Wildfire was some years ago...

I always thought, the recovery-zip-installation would simulate the very same process. I tried this way, too.
However, this didn't work, either ;-(. I put it into SDCARD-root, chose Reboot into Bootloader -> there it seems to check the corresponding ZIP but no questioning to install it...
Maybe some problem of my HBOOT-version? I'm still on 0.8 (and couldn't find any update instructions, yet).
How did you install your recovery? The zip method was posted just at the end of the thread?

Yes, I use the pc49.zip method.
And, yes. Maybe your hboot version is causing this. But I'm not familiar with these issues.
Maybe @heavy_metal_man can help you. As I know he has lot of knowledge regarding these than myself.

does your phone power on at all? or just the red led flash. this is usually caused my the battery being fully depleted and the bootloader not having enough power to boot at all. if leaving it on charge for 24H+ does not fix the issue then either buy a new battery and/or a external wall charger like this one . you may need an adapter for the wall, depending where you live. This should not fail and in future be careful to never fully deplete your battery

since you rooted your phone using unrevoked your hboots security was never deactivated, just bypassed temporarily. this means that if you know what your doing with root, you can flash a custom recovery but i dont recommend this as its a but outdated. i recommend you upgrade your hboot stock rom and radio using a RUU. then run the program revolutionary to remove the security on your bootloader. then fastboot and pc49img.zip methods will be available to you, so you can flash a more updated recovery without issue Since you have fastboot commands set up on your pc please issue the command
Code:
Fastboot getvar cid
for me and post the cid here. i will then have a look for you and see if i can find a ruu for you to upgrade easily

Hello heavy_metal_man and thanks for chiming in!
I have my phone always on a charger, but sometimes it seems to be shut down and remain unresponsive until I remove the battery. So I do rule out a battery issue (though not any other hardware issues ).
This happens sometimes(!) when I'm on charging (via computer USB) and simply shut down the phone. It becomes unresponsive, the red LED still glows and I have to remove the batter.
Trying to get a RUU with the HBOOT 1.00 included resulted in the following (using OpenRUU from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=711298 and a RUU downloaded from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275680, namely the first FROYO ROM, second download link) :

ok, im on the lookout for a RUU for you. can you upload the rom.zip from that program somewhere for me to download. im interested in what it has outputted. also, what hboot and recovery version are you on?
UPDATE: ok we are out of luck for an official update from vodaphone that has hboot 1.01.0001 as they upgraded straight to hboot 1.01.0002. but this is not the end
we can use a Goldcard to bypass the htc's check of the phone cid, allowing us to flash other carriers updates. as such we can flash a WWE (world wide english, unbranded) rom with the hboot we need.
follow this part of my guide
Code:
step 6. now we need to make a gold card. if you already have one, you can skip this part. first using your working android phone, download and install Goldcard helper from the android market. Run the app and copy down your sd cards reverse cid.
step 7. now go to this website [URL="http://huygens.hoxnet.com/goldcard.html"]here[/URL] and enter in your reverse cid. it will then let you download a goldcard.img.
step 8. now go back to our c:\adb\ folder and run the goldcardtool.exe, this will flash the goldcard to your sd card. Warning! this will format your card!!
step 9. once that is done we are now ready for the final push
once you have made a working goldcard then run the RUU in this download package all going well your device will flash the update. if it gives you the error 42, or 131 then the goldcard has failed.
once you have that ran and successfully then reboot and quick setup your phone and then run this tool called revolutionary as this will make your bootloader s-off
finally install this recovery here to fix the charging issue. place it onto the sdcard and allow the bootloader to flash the recovery
then its just install any custom rom you want pal
more info on revolutionary instructions here

turns out, i believe this is the same as you are downloading from me you will still need to have a goldcard functioning and the clickable ruu is more user friendly

Are you sure it installed the rom? The rom.zip that you linked to me earlier, rename it to PC49IMG.zip and put it onto the root of your SD card. Them boot into the bootloader and let it pick it up. If it asks you to flash it say yes, if it does not then your goldcard has failed.

Still Rebooting into Stock Recovery after flashing
Lum_UK said:
Even simpler root than Invisiblek's method for the older versions: If you have already tried that method and now have broken wireless, see Post #2
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-n3.img
fastboot reboot
adb reboot recovery
Flash Super SU from within TWRP. Then boot the OS
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
echo "/system/xbin/su --daemon &" >> /system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh
Reboot and you're rooted.
By default ColorOS doesn't let apps auto-start themselves, so go into security centre and allow SuperSU to auto-start, otherwise you won't get prompts for root when other apps need it.
Thanks to invisiblek for the original root method and babelmonk for the fix. I have shamelessly copied these and adapted them for the new firmware.

Hi,
does anyone have an idea what might have gone wrong?
I tried either recovery image 2.8.4.0 and 2.8.5.0, adb always confirms the flash with okay; when I reboot into recovery, it always shows me the stock ColorOS recovery,
asking for the language, then the normal menu. The current rom installed has following version number: N5206EX_23_150208
I am somehow stuck and would appreciate any ideas.
Cheers

Seems version 150208 change something in boot which prevents twrp to be installed.
I manage to get it to work (which i'm not sure if it's the right way to do).
1. Need to flash invisiblek 141129 rooted boot img first before flashing twrp recovery then flash SuperSU follow by Lumkitty's post on fixing SU below:
(Mount system in twrp)
mount -o remount,rw /system
echo "/system/xbin/su --daemon &" >> /system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh
3. Reboot
4. Extract the boot image from the latest rom and flash it
5. Now will have latest rom with root and working WIFI

Thank you for finding this. It's a little weird as my phone will let me switch between twrp and stock recovery without any issues. I have had invisiblek's kernel on there in the past.
Been trying this, but it seems will not work before flashing the boot from invisiblek (which I am unable to download)
