Desire broken?

Hi,
I flashed a modified framework-res.apk I got from the emulator (using the new Gingerbread) and flashed it to Oxygen 1.0. I have a GSM, AMOLED Desire.
Now my sdcard doesn't get recognized anymore and the device isn't able to connect to O2 Germany. When I try to connect the phone to my PC (Windows) I get a message that Windows wants to install a "Qualcomm CDMA technologies MSM" driver.
I still can boot the phone up, I can get into recovery (AmonRa 2.0.0) and fastboot.
Can anyone help me?

Flash a stock ROM - ignore the Windows driver thing, that's to do with a modem if you Google it. Why you'd take something from Gingerbread and try it on FroYo is beyond me - super rookie mistake right there!!

1. It only was the framework-res.apk and I only took the images from it.
2. I don't have access to my sdcard. Is it still possible to flash a stock ROM?

Try flashing a rom via fastboot.

As you are on o2 Germany, grab this RUU:
http://www.o2online.de/nw/support/downloads/software/htc/htcdesire/htc-desire.html
and reroot via unrevoked, gonna delete everything on your device but should work, you might want to take your sd card out of the phone before doing this just in case anything weird happens ;-)
best regards

That's the same as the o2 UK RUU on shipped-roms.com, would also mean no gold card needed to flash it

How can I get the ROM image as zip file? Is it the OTA update.zip?

Edit: Read the next post, some genius information, learned sth new there : >
If you're talkin bout my solution there is no way to get the zip, simply install HTC sync (yes, you have to -.-), fire up the executable and follow the on screen instructions.

It's the full RUU. To get the PB99IMG.zip from it do the following:
1. Run the RUU
2. Once you get to the first screen of the RUU, move it to the bottom of your screen and go to Start>Run and type
%temp%
And click OK
3. Browse to the newest folder created in the Temp folder
4. In the folder will be a ZIP file called Rom - copy this to your Desktop
5. Rename thr ZIP file to PB99IMG.zip (not PB99IMG.zip.zip) and copy it to the root of your SD card
6. Turn your phone on whilst holding volume down and follow the instructions

I think you don't have to flash a RUU rom. Flashing for example oxygen via fastboot again should do the trick.

Better to flash stock again to get everything working again then root again

I have the nandroid .img files of my system before I got those problems. Would it be possible to flash those somehow via fastboot?

For that method I said you do NOT need FASTBOOT. So long as you can connect you SD card to your PC to copy the ZIP file to it and turn your phone on into HBOOT then you'll be fine. If, and it's a big if, it doesn't read the card then yes you'll have to use FASTBOOT and an RUU - you don't need HTC Sync for that

It's now updating. I hope it doesn't matter that I have removed the hboot- and splash-image from the zip-file.

Removed them from what? The PB99IMG.zip? Why on earth would you do that?!?!?! It's going to brick your phone!!
Just flash back to stock and start again

Currently it's just a piece of hardware that is only capable of using WiFi. I can't damage it more. But maybe you're right. I will install the unchange zip file.
But it would be interesting to know what went wrong. Why does using images from the Gingerbread emulator framework-res.apk for a FroYo ROM leads to such an result?

Because the rest of the ROM isn't Gingerbread. It's completely different. It's like me taking a customised framework file and trying to use it on a stock ROM. It doesn't work
Just go back to stock and start again. That way you know you've got a clean base to start from

[Q] CM7 HBoot

Hi.
When I flash PB99IMG_bravo_cm7.zip using CWM, I see about 2 lines of text flash by and then I am back at the main screen. The lines are too fast for me to read. Is this normal behavior?

Ik think you shouldn't flash this file.
You have to rename it to: PB99IMG.zip and put it on the root of your sd card.
Then when you volume down+power your device, you will be asked if you want to perform the update. I'd select 'yes'.

That's what I don't get. Some say I have to download and rename the zip file, other say I have to dload and rename the img file. I am lost here

From Alpharev.nl:
You can also download the corresponding PB99IMG zipfile, put it on your sdcard, and rename it to PB99IMG.zip. Then start the phone in HBOOT mode (VolDown+POWER) to flash the HBOOT without a PC. It is however still necessary to either restore your nandroid, or reflash your ROM after doing this. The partition LAYOUT has changed, the actual data still needs to be 'moved'.

Just tried it. Renamed to zip and copied to sdcard\pb....zip. Booted into hboot with vl down + power. It does it's normal thing when it's looking for the files, but I don't see it doing anything different. Is there supposed to be some message or whatever confirming the operations success?

use android flasher!it works for me..

Yes, it should ask if you want to install/perform the update.
Are you shure you didn't name it PB......zip.zip?

Go get an SD CARD from someone and put on it B125 International Version or any other ROM for that matter, and do it fast until your phone runs out of battery. Put update.app in dload folder. You can do it through adb and fastboot, but the safest way is the way that I have just told you. And after that press the Power button and volume up/down at once, all of them until stock recovery starts updating/upgrading... well installing the new ROM, I hope you still have stock recovery.

So when I put it in dload and put it in phone what next?

Press the Power button and volume up/down at once, all of them until stock recovery starts. If you only have TWRP find a flashable ROM that is a ZIP, and flash it through TWRP.

I had B125 International Locked and then I flashed KitKat, and after that CyanogenMod 10.1 and worked. Now, fell free to try what you want, but if you want to be safe install stock recovery if you don't have it anymore and upgrade from dload folder B125. All the info you want you can find on XDA. Just search what you need.

But you don't have an OS.
Put your device in fastboot mode ( > adb reboot bootloader )
Extract recovery.img from archive
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ;
fastboot reboot ;
Tell me what stock recovery do you want.
Place the ZIP with the recovery let's say on Local Disk ( C: ) Create a folder and name it fastboot. Put the recovery ZIP in that folder. After that connect your phone to the PC, now press shift and right click on your mouse or on your laptop and press Open Command Window here. There you write adb bootloader and press enter.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ;
fastboot reboot ;

defo just get like a 4gb sd card.

Thank you for all I'm on cm now, but I don't like that I can't take photos with it Can I get camera working?
How can I install normal huawei software now?

Revert to stock recovery first.

How can I do this, I don't find threads with how can i do this?
Can I get Camera working there it says that it is working but on my phone gallery chrashes when I open camera app

Use Camera360, works perfectly.

Android 6.0 1/2 Update problem

Hello XDA, hello M9 users!
So, i rooted my phone back in September just to use some simple apps like Greenify, AdAway, etc. Yesterday the official Android 6.0 update arrived and I wanted to update. So I flashed the stock recovery and relocked my bootloader aaaand that was it. Everything was going ok untill the phone got in to the recovery. When it started to update the loading bar filled like 1/4. After that the red sign appeared on my screen. After that i just hard reseted my phone and everything was working ok and tried again but the same problem persisted. I started looking here on forums but i didn't find exact answeres except one. The guy sad: "The problem was solved. It took me 6 hours to manage this. All you need to do is re flash the stock backup with TWRP. ". Sadly I don't have the stock backup from my phone. And I'm thinking to reinstall TWRP recovery and flash version 1.32.401.8* from the thread called "HTC ONE M9 Stock File Collection (RUUs, Backups, etc.) - with linked Instructions" because I think that's the most stock version of this phone. So i have this question: should I do this or not? I am kinda noob, I am definetly not a pro with these things. I only know the basics and I am kindly asking for help. I will attach photos with phone info and everything that I mentioned here in the text. (sorry for my english, I'm trying my best)
If you guys find any solution I will be pleased to hear them!
Phone status:
-Rooted
-Bootloader: Relocked
-S ON
-Stock recovery (recovery version 2.10.401.1)
-SD Card capacity: 8GB only (i don't know if this helps)
-Stock 5.1 HTC Sense 7.0 (Software nr. 2.10.401.1)
-CID number: HTC__102
Thank you in advance!

Remember any changes with system such as root will cause OTA not work well.All you need to do is flash a RUU with right version.Or you can restore from TWRP with stock backup and flash stock recovery then you can get OTA.

If you want to install that update you either need the 2.10.401.1 backup or the corresponding RUU. As soon as you flash anything via TWRP your system gets mount as read/write. OTAs check the status of your system and fail if it's modified (=uninstalled system apps, root, etc.) and/or not mounted as read-only. Unrooting is not enough. You need to reflash an untouched system image (either via RUU or TWRP). Instructions can be found in my google sheet which is linked in post #5 of the thread where you found the 1.32.401.8 backup or in my signature.
Edit: Looks like I didn't type my answer fast enough.

So the only thing i need to do is download "2.10.401.1.zip" RUU from your google sheet, copy it to my SD Card and enter in download mode and just wait untill it's done? Is this working with S-On?

It needs to be renamed correctly and the SD card needs to be formatted to fat32 (as stated in the instructions above the download links ). With S-ON you can use RUUs that have the same or a higher version than your phone. You only need S-OFF if you want to flash RUUs with a lower version (=downgrade) or one with a different SKU (the three numbers behind the second dot of the firmware version) than the one your phone got shipped with.

I am S-On and i don't want to S-Off. I don't want a lower version of RUU and i just want to simply upgrade to Android 6.0. So am I doing the right thing?

Your version is 2.10.401.1 and the RUU has version 2.10.401.1, too.

Are you sure you didn't rename it to "0PJAIMG.zip.zip". Looking at the "nmdsdcid" file I assume that file extensions aren't visible on your pc which could be the reason for your mistake.

Thank you @Flippy498! Succesfully updated to Android 6.0!

So @Flippy498 saved my day with #3.
After getting to his really nice collection which can be found here and here I downloaded a TWRP Backup for my CID.
Remember fastboot getvar cid ?
Then I followed his nice tutorial until Step 5, but skipped 1 - 3.
Flippy498 said:
01. Format your SD card with a PC to exfat and put it back into your phone.
02. Boot to TWRP.
03. Create a backup on your external SD card. (Backing up "Boot" is more than enough. We only want TWRP to create the needed directories on your SD card.)
04. Download the correct backup for your firmware version. (It is stated in the line with "OS" at the beginning when you boot to download mode. The "firmware version" in "settings>about>software information>more" is only the base of the rom you are running.)
05. Unzip the downloaded backup.
06. Copy the unzipped backup folder to "TWRP/BACKUPS/<YourSerialnumber>/"on your SD card. Sometimes this is only possible if the SD card is directly connected to your PC and not put into your phone. I don't know why some M9s refuse the copy process.

So here was my problem, I have no external sd-card in my phone and trying to copy the 4.2 GB File via "Android Transfer" brought up the error, that files largen then 4GB are not supported to copy.
So I first made sure I prepared the following steps:
Flippy498 said:
07. I recommend wiping everything except "Micro SDcard", "USB-OTG" and "SD-Ext".
08. Check the "Mount system as read-only" box in the Mount menu.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now make a folder structure like in Step 6 (if you are still in TWRP, no problem use the "mkdir <foldername>" command via the advanced tools tab. (read on, I tell you where it is)
So then, instead I copied the 2GB zip file in that folder and went to advanced tools in TWRP. There I chose the "execute command" tool, went inside the folder with the serialnumber and clicked select.
Now a command line appears and I entered "unzip" and the name of the zipfile ... well that took some time ... dont tend to klick kill ... you can make 3 coffees in that time (I advise you to drink only two :silly: otherwise you get overexcited)
After that another folder with the name of the zipfile shows up. Go back and click restore - then check that folder and three X Marks will appear, showing you that these mounts will be overwritten.
Now swipe to restore and go on:
Flippy498 said:
09. Restore the backup.
10. Boot to system (ignore the warning that no OS is installed). This process may actually take a while!
11. Congrats! Your system is now stock and able to receive and install official OTAs, again.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and thats's it. Worked like a charm. Thanks again @Flippy498 :highfive: !!

Helps with Download mode

Need some help on how to get the download mode back.
so i have HTC 10, Nougat. S-off and unlocked bootloader,
had some issues with my phone so i formatted the user data from TWRP, the went to flash the original stock ROM, something went wrong obviousely so now i lost the ability to get into download mode.
if i press the power and volume down the phone just gets stuck in boot screen, i can get into the bootloader and recovery (not the TWRP) by pressing power and both volume buttons, bot from recovery I seem to fail flashing the ROM again, it fails on the signature check and even via ADB i cannot boot to download mode.
Any advice on how to get this issue sorted. i want to get the twrp or reinstall the rom again.
PS placing the rom.zip on the SD card is not doing anything as the phone bypasses that step automatically
thanks in advance

Since the computer can talk to the phone, I would try the RUU executable.
(hard to help troubleshoot not knowing what you did but flashing "original stock ROM" via TWRP is a problem)
If you're getting a signature check fail, investigate that. What file are you flashing? How are you trying to flash it? Does downloading it again and comparing the two show any differences (if there isn't a hash to verify it)?

thanks for your comment,
I will try the RUU method tonight and see if that makes any difference.
I was flashing the Original Stock ROM, but i did that from SD card not TWRP, but during the flashing the phone rebooted multiple times and then i ended up with this issue. i am pretty sure I am trying to flash the same file, but will check the Hash just to be sure.
the issue the annoys me is that i cannot access the download mode, if i could then i will flash TWRP again and restore from backup images i have.

I want to say there's a condition where you have to flash twice but I'm not certain on that but it wouldn't hurt.
The signature fail is a concern; hence getting a new file. Are you exctracting 2PS6IMG.zip from the RUU via the decrypt tool? That's what I've always done to ensure I have the correct file and intact.

Yeah, there's a lot that can go wrong there, like downloading the wrong one, the poster making a mistake, not to mention its an unknown source--especially since you're S-OFF.
Ensure you get the correct version from htc.

ok here is the latest development, wondering if anyone has any advise,
firstly extracting the file from the RUU and flashing it did not work. however i managed to find a little app called Windroid that allowed me to flash TWRP from the bootloader (without the need to go to download mode)
but I soon found out that the phone lost all its partitions. so i cannot wipe, format, install anything, but i can see a bunch of folders and filed via the TWRP file manager.
used ADB fdisk -lu I only see one single partition end was only able to remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1.
any advice will be highly appreciated I am not sure how to proceed here
thanks in advance

If you're still in this trouble: -Search for your actual installed ROM (the firmware zip with a lot of other zips inside), deRUU it (search on google how to decompress a RUU) and flash via BOOTLOADER the hosd_signed.img image (this is "download" and "RUU" modes). You can boot to BOOTLOADER holding both volume buttons and power together (try more times if it wont boot).

thanks for the response, I want to try this method too, just wondering do you have any idea how to flash the file form bootloader, given i donot have fastboot, or more precisely fastboot would not see my device, but adb does. (but if I try to reboot to download/fastboot from adb the phone just goes to sleep)
thanks in advance

Flash in bootloader the hosd image for your actual firmware and you should be able to use fastboot/download
