[Q] Problem with updating Hboot and flashing Rom - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
yesterday my phone was bricked. Now I use my Desire again, but I can´t flash any Rom. It ever says something with symlinks (Status 7) in 4EXT.
If I want to update the Hboot (Revolutionary) it never finds the PB99IMG. (Yes, it´s not pb99img.zip, oder PB99IMG.zip.zip, i am 100% sure)
What can I do, I´m just not able to make it to stock.

k. ul need to partition ur sdcard anyway using 4ext recovery. so do that. and sometimes when the bootloader doesnt find the PB99IMG, usually formating the sdcard first works. so partition the sdcard using that guide then try the PB99IMG again and if that dont work then u can flash the hboot.img via fastboot commands.

Thats kinnda what I did I think....And the problem is that my phone is stuck on htc logo screen. So now I would be happy just to get back to working phone.
Can you get in to the hboot by starting phone by pressing volume down + power? And I think latest ruu is the ruu_bravo_froyo_htc_wwe_2.29.405.5

Well I need ruu for europe cuz im theere. And yes,I can get into hboot. From there I tryed recovery.
I'm from europe too and the right ruu for mine phone is the RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27
And i think you have to use that one because of the hboot. the ruu you are using have a old hboot version and i dont think the ruu will downgrade hboot..
But if you can enter fasboot use that to flash a recovery and wipe youre phone then install a custome room on it.

Unless the computer/phone has ESP, yes, both adb and fastboot need a cable connection!
If you dont want to do it over cable, find the corresponding PB99IMG and follow the PB99IMG method

Use the attached file.
Put it in the root of your card (not in any folder)
Reboot by pressing Vol- and Power button.
When asked to update, confirm with Vol -
This should give you a working recovery. Then you can flash any rom as you usually do, and at that instance, your bootloops will be solved too.
After this, if you still wish to return Hboot to Stock (without losing S-Off), you can use this PB99IMG. <Make sure you rename it to the same name as the previous file after deleting the former.

Lothaen, come on, u too? the revolutionary/alpharev hbootS have a downgrader protection..Mean nothing can overwriting the hboot (even an official ruu can't overwrite/change it)...To allow to change hboot u have to flash the downgrader hboot that u can find on the aplharev site..Then, after flashed the downgrader hboot (still s-off) the hboot is no more protected, then u can run the ruu..and this time the ruu will overwrite the hboot, giving u s-on....
The question is why everyone (looks the lot threads coming up) need s-on, just after u got s-off? lol
All of us need to know how to make S-ON again....because we still keep the warranty on this way

hehe - i never looked into it as i was s-on for a long time and now i s-off'd i thought nothing of it...
i did assume as the hboot was rolled UP some versions then it wouldn't overwrite with an older version easily, but i only tested it today as i was having issues with my market and wanted to check it wasnt a rom
only reason for s-on really is warranty?

No, flash the zip from the recovery
Do you want root ur current gb rom? Or do you want flash an other custom rom that u can find on the development section?
In both cases, boot ur phone into recovery:
-go on settings/application and untick fast boot (if u have it enabled)
-power off completely ur phone
-press and HOLD volume down, then press (still holding vol down) the power button and wait for the bootloader screen to show up
-select recovery with the volume keys and confirm with the power button
Then to root ur current rom flash this zip
Otherwise, if u want flash a different rom, already rooted, choice one from the development section and follow the thread rom instruction
Lot of tutorials around how to use the recovery (backup, flash, restore) if u need it

cant change hboot....???

My device is s-off. But I can't change hboot. Flashed cm7r2 over stock and my system memory was inaccessible through recovery. I was unable to format the system and flash a new Rom. I returned back to stock hboot and everything was normal. But now even if I place the zip file of cm7r2 hboot at the root of my sdcard (of course I renamed it as needed) the bootloader won't detect anything. So I m stuck with stock hboot now.
What shall I do??? Tried to flash via fastboot but it gives error.
The bootloader still shows s-off. I have changed my hboot earlier so many times. From cm7r2, stock to oxygenr2 and data++.
Any help pl...
Flash the downgrader first. Get it from the alpha rev site. Last download. Then flash the hboot you want.
To install it from sd-card, rename the zip to PB99IMG.zip.

Installation aborted (while flashing Custom Rom)

I rooted my phone using EAR tool, now I want to flash Custom Rom..I downloaded Jelly time, I did full wipe and than when I chose zip from sdcard which I want to install (jellytime) installation process started and than appeared
E:Cant't open /sdcard/name_of_rom.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
I'm realy sure that i did everything fine...I have CWM 5.8 ...Please help me, I'm affread that I brick my device..
PS. I did NaNdroid backup...Can I just restore my old ROM?
EDIT:
I reboot system because i wanted to try to flash custom rom again..Now just white screen and "HTC", it wont boot in CWM or bootloader..How I can boot into cwm now?? Maybe to remove battery?
EDIT:
Okay, now I'm in CWM again..but still "(bad) installation aborted"
EDIT:
Then I tryed to restore...It was written that restore was done, but now I reboot and five minutes just white screen and "HTC"...Is it normal that?
EDIT:
Still cant start.. (10 min after I reboot).. I bricked phone?
EDIT
So, this is my situation...I have acess to bootloader and CWM only..If I try to flash custom rom (JellyTime) appears:
E:Cant't open /sdcard/name_of_rom.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
And after that I try to restore nandroid backup...CWM sad that restore is complete done, but when I reboot just splash screen (I wait 20 min and at the end I pull battery..)
I would rather restore backup, but why I cant do that? ..
ANYONE TO HELP?!

My sd card is 8gb, but what matthers size of sd card with all process of flashing custom rom? I think my only option is to download new custom rom, place it on sd card and try flashing again...
And about nandroid backup..For me very strange is that cwm sad "restore completed", and there isnt any error in restoring process but when reboot splash screen...
Looks like the download might be corrupt. Try a new ROM. Also, don't forget to flash the boot.img from fastboot after you flash the ROM from recovery. Not sure what's going on with your nandroid, though; you shouldn't need to reflash the boot.img when restoring a nandroid. When did you make the nandroid?

I think it is not corrupt, because I downloaded it from here: http://jellytime.googlecode.com/files/cm-JellyTime_42_R11.zip
I will not forget to flash the boot.img but I can't flash ROM from cwm!! I make a nandroid before anything today...
What I have to do now? I think this is hard brick...
PS. Maybe to click in CWM: "Apply /scdard/update.zip" ... What that will do??
Doesn't matter where you got it from, it can still be corrupt...
You need to check the md5 check sum, your zip source should have it listed. An easier way is to simply open the zip file in a zip file viewer.

I don't know how many times I can say this: try another ROM. I don't use JellyTime so I can't confirm that the ROM or the version is not the problem. Or you could relock and run a RUU to return to stock. Or you could flash another recovery like 4ext and see if that helps.
If none of those options work, your phone is probably hosed. As far as I know, there is no ODIN; this is not a Samsung phone.

Ace Think Tank has guides.
Okay.. I want to try that procedure with locking bootloader and runnig RUU..
As I know, first I relock bootloader using Eacy Ace Hack tool, is it?
And than if that works, just download RUU, double click, follow the instructions and than I'm on the stock again?
P.S. Is this last stock for the dhd:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_225512_signed.exe ?
Can you try 4ext instead of CWM? I use 4ext and have no problems flashing with s-off and an unlocked bootloader.

With s-on, you should flash roms via fastboot. I believe you need s-off before you can flash via cwm or 4ext.

Why would you exctract the rom? that will corrupt the file for sure. ODIN?? um....how come? Odin is just for Samsung devices.
Please do not double post. Thanks

I didn't extract the rom in sd card, I just viewed what files are included in jellytime.zip ... Maybe I have to update radio? My radio si Radio 26.14.04.28 ..

I don't think the radio would cause this issue. I would suggest that you go through the guide to get s-off and install 4ext.
I went through the guide with my DHD and haven't had any problems installing custom roms, creating backups, and restoring backups.

Wildfire cwm install help

Hello there. after years i recieved a HTC wildfire from a friend. and i thought to root it and install some custom roms.
It is S-off
Hboot version is 1.01.002
and i was able to root it and install superuser.
but the problem is i was not able to install cwm recovery
i tried rom manager method, and also via fastboot usb flash
The install process goes well but i can't enter in to cwm recovery. When i click the recovery option in boot menu it takes me to old recovery screen
Obviously i'm missing something here
Can you guys please help me out??

Hi! What cwm you installed? And from where?
Put that file on your SD Card and the HBOOT should detect it and install it. Tell me if it worked or not.

This is the tool i used to gain S-Off (http://revolutionary.io/) Its a further developed version of unrevoked3 for the HTC Wildfire and AlphaRevX for the HTC Desire. This tool should work pretty similiar to unrevoked (but i don't remember very well) so maybe you should have a look in the unrevoked3 thread, which you can find in the Wildfire Development forum at the top of the page.
Also read the revolutionary guide carefully :http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/revolutionary
And dont forget to install htc fastboot drivers!
I found a very good tutorial for revolutionary and the HTC Wildfire
