[Q] Help with HBOOT

Hi, I have just bought a second hand Desire for my wife. The person I bought it off had changed the HBOOT and put Oxygen rom on it. She wanted it back to sense so I tried to flash the official RUU via HTC Synch thinking it would change the HBOOT at the same time. Now all I have is HTC in the middle of the screen with an exclamation mark in each corner.
Anyone give me a step by step guide of how to get it working again??.
Thanks in advance.....
Scotty.

cant u just flash the alphrev stock hboot or zip. or reflash recovery??

Read the adb and Fastboot faq via my signature (ignore all the adb stuff, read just fastboot).
Set up your computer for fastboot (or download Fastboot flash utility - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=794638)
Download this: http://alpharev.nl/bravo_downgrade.img
Boot into fastboot (from off hold back and press power)
Using the knowledge from the FAQ and / or Fastboot flash utility, Flash the bravo_downgrade.img as a hboot (eg fastboot flash hboot bravo_downgrade.img)
Run RUU again
This may not make sense looking at it now, but read the FAQ and it will.

I cannot install the android flasher as (on one pc) it says I need .net framework which I downloaded but then it says searching for updates and then says an exception has occured and won't do anything else. And on my laptop it says error checking for updates and then get the exception message.
Any ideas??

Easy way- grab PB99IMG.zip containing bravo_downgrade.img from Alpharev, check md5 checksum (if it's not correct- redownload), put it on SD and boot to bootloader. Hboot will be flashed by bootloader itself

This is why we need to use fastboot flash. Try the manual method from the FAQ.

I have downloaded sdk tools and dragged the folder to C: drive but when I right click my computer to put the ;C:\android-sdk-windows\tools The line I get says:
\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Zune\
I do not have zune on my pc.

I am running windows XP SP3 if that means anything

Help with hboot
Hi all.
Download and unzip unrevoked, the easiest rooting method known to man. This works on any HTC phone, so if you have a different phone than the Incredible 2, just select whatever phone you have.
Thanks.

Dont worry what is already in there, thats nothing to do with what we're doing. Zune is an MS thing so its not implausable that its there.
1 thing though, is it my sdk tools, or googles? If its googles, check in the folder to make sure adb and fastboot are there, as they may actually be in platform-tools instead. Amend the line you are adding if that is the case. Or just add both, ie:
;C:\android-sdk-windows\tools;C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools

I have installed the drivers as described but still does not work.
When the phone is plugged in via USB I get the screen with HTC in the middle and the exclamation in each corner, when I unplug it I get a white screen with:
AlpahRev Oxygen r2 (in pink) and then:

Remove RUU from sd-card or remove card- bootloader tries to flash it if file is found.
Also in bootloader mode you don't have access to adb- this requires running system or recovery.

This is bootloader screen but it finds update package (PB99IMG.zip) on sd card and tries to flash it- this is normal behaviour.
Remove RUU form sd-card and you will have access to fastboot

Wait ~10 seconds after first bootloader screen appears (bootloader searches for SD card and flashable packages on it). Then bootloader menu should appear- check this video how it looks like

Try this :

Restore it and flash the matching 2.17 stock recovery. Check manually for updates afterwards and update the phone again to the JB software

[Q] HTC ONE X stock rom update fail

Hi ALL,
I'm new to Android and I just brought a used HTC ONE X. Previous user updated this phone to JB custom rom. I just wanted to reflash the phone using HTC official RUU. So followed some youtube videos and tried to do it. Some how due my poor knowledge in Android rom details I tried with a wrong RUU. So it went fail and then tried to recover that also failed. Now phone is just boot up to fastboot menu. unfortunately I can't find a sutable RUU too. My phone details are shown below. Please help !!! :crying:
Radio version - 1.1204.105.14
cid - vodap102 (Vodafone UK)
Hboot - 1.12.0000
rom ver - 2.17.161.4
Please help me to find proper RUU.
Thanks !!

I can't find your either but there is another method. First you need to get fastboot commands working ! If you know something about that ?
Install HTC drivers
http://db.tt/gXVxa3Dp
then download these files to your pc
http://db.tt/ldx3qOOU
C:\fastboot\*the files i gave you*
Then open a command prompt inside the fastboot folder on the pc, hold shift and right click inside the folder and choose "open command prompt here" or something similar
Then you put the phone in the bootloader and connect the cable to the pc
Then type
Fastboot devices
It should return a serial of the phone ! Lets start with all this and report back

First of all you can't run RUU with unlocked bootloader you need to relock it, go to fastboot connect phone to PC and run command:
fastboot oem lock
to relock bootloader.
Then run command:
fastboot getvar cid
to find the cid of your device. when you find it well find the appropriate RUU for you region.
However you can run PB.img from Goldcard without having to find appropriate RUU, but not all SD can be made to it. Go to AAHK2 thread and you will find what manufacturers are supported.

I'm unable to find appropriate RUU for your phone cause it's for TMobile UK. So Goldcard is the only way. However go to AAHK2 thread to find out which SD card can be used. When you make a gold card extract rom.zip from RUU that you tried, rename it to PD98IMG.zip, put it to the root of your goldcard and reboot phone to bootloader. Use Vol up and down buttons to install.

ok no problem i will give it a shot later tonight.. i will post my results... oh an i hit thanks
RESULTS: basically i now have a full stock desire hd although i now have no service i cant seem to get it to connect to my network... i followed all your instructions?

flash recovery
I have been through a similar situation before
But I have known the version of ruu for my phone
The key is the error message you have is solved by an easy way
You have to open the ruu u have
And look in the temp folder (%temp%)
For a file named rom.zip
Copy it
Unzip it
Flash boot.img
Recovery.img
System.img files in the fastboot menu
I.e
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot flash system system.img
Then try running the ruu again
It should work
Otherwise the gold card will solve it
Keep me updated

Problem with 3G after installing stock RUU

This is my device information given below.
HTC One V
CID: HTC_044
HBOOT- 1.18.0000
RADIO- 3831.19.00.120
Once I rooted my revice used custom roms. But after installing stock RUU on my phone, "3G" is not working rather it is showing "E" when I am using internet. I searched for stock recovery.img and boot.img from internet. and installed "RUU_PRIMO_U_ICS_40A_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.22.707.2_Radio_ 20.76.30.0835U_3831.19.00.120_release_274703_signe d.exe" . Now I am helpless because when I set network mode to WCDMA only, 3G is not working. What should I do now? When downloading RUU, RADIO version is only matched but HBOOT didn't as it can be seen above.
I need stock recovery_signed.img and boot_signed.img for this version RUU. if anyone have, please provide.

If I am not wrong, you should be able to find the recovery and boot images in the RUU itself.
Run the RUU exe as administrator and wait for it to show the 1st screen. Dont click on Next or Cancel button. Now go to your temp folder ( %temp% and find the RUU extracted folder. You should find ROM.zip in it. Open the archive and you should see boot_signed.img and recover_signed.img under it.
Hope it helps.

thanks
