2b. When you boot into HBOOT, notice the menu at the bottom. The first option is FASTBOOT. You select the menu options using the Volume Up/Down key. Once you select FASTBOOT menu, press the Power Button and it will take you to the FASTBOOT menu.
2c. Plug your USB cable in and the screen should change to FASTBOOT USB. Then on your PC, open a CMD window and change to the directory where you have installed the Android SDK tools, such adb.exe, fastboot.exe, etc. In the CMD window you would type the command:
fastboot flash hboot vivo_downgrade.img
2d. Then you would type the next command:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
3b. You need to open the ROM.zip file and extract the file HBOOT.img from it and copy it to the same directory as the vivo_downgrade.img. Then you would type the command from 2c like so:
fastboot flash hboot HBOOT.img

Ok what is the message you get when you attempt to flash the Pg32IMG.zip file via HBOOT? Does is prompt you to press the power button to apply the update or does the PG32IMG.zip not pass validation?

OK, you need to use a goldcard to flash the stock ruu/rom.zip. That will get around the incorrect cid error. You should be able to create a goldcard without using your phone if you have a SD reader for your PC.

I just noticed it now, grab it here:

Haven't tested it, try it at your own risk but should be safe

fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-buzz.img
S-ON: simply rename to update.zip and put it on your SD card

"sent from me2u"
I just didn't see it posted lol, did a search and didn't see the official 5.0.2.0, only older and customized versions
Can anyone help me install it?
I've installed v4.0.1.4, but I can't install it

Assuming you have S-OFF, install the Android SDK and just boot into the bootloader, then select fastboot and use the command in the first post...

With S-ON, you can only use the fake flash by renaming the .zip to update.zip and "flash" it from the stock recovery to launch CWM...

Yes, I've S-OFF.
Turn ON my device on Fastboot, it's connected to computer obviously!
If I run:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-legend.img
The console says that "fastboot" isn't a valid command.
If I am in Android SDK directory and run:
Code:
./adb devices
The console don't found any device.
Where is the problem?? Is this usable on Ubuntu? I'm use it.

See http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html
"If you're developing on Ubuntu Linux, you need to add a udev rules file that contains a USB configuration for each type of device you want to use for development. In the rules file, each device manufacturer is identified by a unique vendor ID, as specified by the ATTR{idVendor} property. For a list of vendor IDs, see USB Vendor IDs, below.

If you're on Windows, have you that in the recovery installation folder?:
AdbWinApi.dll, adb.exe, fastboot.exe and recovery-X.img
Good call, copy paste error
Also if you don't have the fastboot command, you'll need to download the "Android SDK Platform Tools" (under "Tools") from the SDK manager (how did you get adb working though without the platform tools?!)
Should be under the same directory...
Just rename the zip to pc49img.zip making sure you DONT name it pc49img.zip.zip place it on the root of your sdcard (ie.not in any folders) boot your phone into hboot via volume down and power whilst phone is off and when prompted press volume up to update then reboot into recovery to see your new cwm. SIMPLES.
"sent from me2u"
First, I go to "android-sdk/platform-tools" with the terminal.
Then, run this command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-buzz.img
And the terminal return this:
Code:

What's happen? If I run "adb devices", my HTC Wildfire is founded.

Did you highlight fastboot in the bootloader/hboot and pressed power to select it?
It should say fastboot usb plug or something like that

I think you'll need a flashable zip, the one koush provides is just a img and a fake flash .zip
@Kwen, yes copy/past error xD
how can i call the yes/no event in this recovery with an updater-script?
other phones have recovery that have a list of comand,that you can add to an updater-script to call some recovery functions.
also this?

platform doesn't matter
gaining S-off is all you need
once you do that change the CID to match the unbranded HTC One device and install that RUU
You might have to change the Model ID (MID) as well but that's easy too.
Just pick an S-off method, you'll probably want revOne since it is just terminal commands.
Thanks but is there a way to get Soff without HTC-DEV on a mac also?
Edit:
Sorry just saw that it is no problem with revone!

oh you need windows to install an RUU I just did it with VM ware and an old windows disc I had laying around
As mentioned above, you'd need Windows in order to install an RUU. Follow this guide in order to install a RUU, and since you're on HTC__001, download and install this RUU:

Going back to stock
What you need to know before going back to stock:
Your bootloader will never be "LOCKED" again. You can't restore it. You can only relock it.
"TAMPERED" text in bootloader will disappear only after proceeding method 2.
There are 3 main methods. All three will be described below.
Method 1 - only for users with .401 devices (for more info click here - RUU variants)
Visit this thread - [ROM] HTC One *STOCK* ROM
Download stock odexed version of most recent firmware and recovery.img
Move recovery.img to c:\mini-sdk location
Boot your device in recovery mode (power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "RECOVERY")
In main menu, select "install zip from sdcard" and "choose zip from sdcard".
Navigate to the location of stock ROM (zip) package and confirm flashing procedure.
After flashing process is complete, reboot the device in bootloader mode.
Connect your device to the PC
Boot your device in fastboot mode (like you did during unlocking bootloader - power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "FASTBOOT")
Open up command prompt ( Start > Run > type cmd and hit enter ). The window that appears is called Command Prompt. <click here to see the image>
Navigate to where you unzipped "mini-sdk" package (type in Command Prompt: cd c:\mini-sdk). Note: make sure the path is not c:\mini-sdk\mini-sdk
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You have now stock boot, system and recovery partitions. Time to relock your bootloader.
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot oem lock
Method 2 - flashing RUU (ROM Update Utility)
Visit this or this thread.
Find proper RUU for your device
Connect your device to the PC
Boot your device in fastboot mode (like you did during unlocking bootloader - power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "FASTBOOT")
Open up command prompt ( Start > Run > type cmd and hit enter ). The window that appears is called Command Prompt. <click here to see the image>
Navigate to where you unzipped "mini-sdk" package (type in Command Prompt: cd c:\mini-sdk). Note: make sure the path is not c:\mini-sdk\mini-sdk
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot oem lock
Flash RUU and follow on screen instructions.
You have now completely stock software on your device.
Method 3 - flashing nandroid backup
In custom recovery restore nandroid backup you did after flashing custom recovery for the first time.
If you performed nandroid backup before permanently flashing custom recovery, your stock recovery should be now flashed.
If you still have custom recovery, extract recovery.img from your nandroid backup.
Move recovery.img to c:\mini-sdk location
Connect your device to the PC
Boot your device in fastboot mode (like you did during unlocking bootloader - power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "FASTBOOT")
Open up command prompt ( Start > Run > type cmd and hit enter ). The window that appears is called Command Prompt. <click here to see the image>
Navigate to where you unzipped "mini-sdk" package (type in Command Prompt: cd c:\mini-sdk). Note: make sure the path is not c:\mini-sdk\mini-sdk
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You have now stock boot, system and recovery partitions. Time to relock your bootloader.
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot oem lock

EDIT: You'll need to setup adb and fastboot on Mac in order to be able to use the terminal commands mentioned in the guide. This can help you do that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1917237
DO NOT download the Android SDK as it is not necessary, however scroll down in the guide and you'll find a small zip file containing a folder called android which you should extract to your Desktop.

Fastboot not recognizing phone after HBOOT downgrade

Hi guys. I wanted 2 restore my HTC One firmware through RUU. I followed nkk71's guide to do so. So i downgraded the bootloader to 1.44 to flash the RUU. However, after the downgrade, my One isnt recognized by fastboot. Whenever i type any command, its Waiting for device........... I have installed HTC Sync and tried uninstalling also. No success.
But this laptop has both USB 3.0 ports and is on Win 8.1 Is the USB 3.0 port the problem??
But on HBOOT 1.54, the phone was easily recognized.'
Thanks sincerely for any help
You need the newer hboot with Windows 8.1.
An alternative is a Linux live CD.

thanks a lot for your suggestion. Win7 did the trick. But I have another question. Wen im doing the push adb command for installing the guru bootloader reset zip, its not happening.
What I've done is:
1) Put the guru bootloader reset zip in fastboot folder
2) adb push xxxx.zip (Ive just dragged the zip file from fastboot folder to command prompt)
3) Then I get a whole huge bunch of letters
Is it possible 2 simply drag the zip file to my virtual sd card and then flash from CWM, the way its done for flashing a rom
Or could you please tell me what command to put to flash the guru bootloader reset from command prompt
Really sorry if im irritating you
You should paste your results from adb push to get a better answer

you should look at the guide in a little bit more detail (including post 7, which has "visuals" both of the command prompt and the screenshots, so you can see what kind of output you get.
the command is "adb push <name of file>.zip /data/media/" <- yes, you need to mention the destination
here's a little trick it seems many are missing: in the command prompt type:
Code:
C:\ADB3>adb push g
then press TAB, and looky here:
Code:
C:\ADB3>adb push Guru_Bootloader_Reset_1.0.zip
then you can continue and type "<space>/data/media/"
if there is more than one file that starts with "g" press TAB again (and again) until the correct file is displayed.

are you in recovery or booted up rom (with USB debugging enabled?), anyway if you can see your phone with MTP in Windows, then fine just drag it onto the phone.

It initially wasn't working thru adb. So I just decided 2 boot the phone after that. The phone is booting fine. So this is what I plan to do :
1) Copy the boot loader zip to internal storage
2) Boot CWM
3) Flash the zip
4) Lock the Boot loader and remove tampered
5) Run RUU when the phone is in fastboot
Is this the correct procedure ?

REALLY THANKS A LOOT. I really don't know how to thank you enough. My phone is back to normal
One last question: HTC UAE has told me that the phone has to be S-ON to be repaired for free. So simply running that command provided in the guide will get it S-ON right ?

yes as mentioned in the guide, however you have to do this before updating to 3.xx because hboot 1.55 is patched for that (as mentioned in the guide)
so if you're just sending to repair, and think it's necessary go ahead with s-on. after that you can take OTA updates... then again why bother, i'm sure they'll update it in the repair center.

Going back to stock
What you need to know before going back to stock:
Your bootloader will never be "LOCKED" again. You can't restore it. You can only relock it.
"TAMPERED" text in bootloader will disappear only after proceeding method 2.
There are 3 main methods. All three will be described below.
Method 1 - only for users with .401 devices (for more info click here - RUU variants)
Visit this thread - [ROM] HTC One *STOCK* ROM
Download stock odexed version of most recent firmware and recovery.img
Move recovery.img to c:\mini-sdk location
Boot your device in recovery mode (power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "RECOVERY")
In main menu, select "install zip from sdcard" and "choose zip from sdcard".
Navigate to the location of stock ROM (zip) package and confirm flashing procedure.
After flashing process is complete, reboot the device in bootloader mode.
Connect your device to the PC
Boot your device in fastboot mode (like you did during unlocking bootloader - power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "FASTBOOT")
Open up command prompt ( Start > Run > type cmd and hit enter ). The window that appears is called Command Prompt. <click here to see the image>
Navigate to where you unzipped "mini-sdk" package (type in Command Prompt: cd c:\mini-sdk). Note: make sure the path is not c:\mini-sdk\mini-sdk
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You have now stock boot, system and recovery partitions. Time to relock your bootloader.
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot oem lock
Method 2 - flashing RUU (ROM Update Utility)
Visit this or this thread.
Find proper RUU for your device
Connect your device to the PC
Boot your device in fastboot mode (like you did during unlocking bootloader - power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "FASTBOOT")
Open up command prompt ( Start > Run > type cmd and hit enter ). The window that appears is called Command Prompt. <click here to see the image>
Navigate to where you unzipped "mini-sdk" package (type in Command Prompt: cd c:\mini-sdk). Note: make sure the path is not c:\mini-sdk\mini-sdk
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot oem lock
Flash RUU and follow on screen instructions.
You have now completely stock software on your device.
Method 3 - flashing nandroid backup
In custom recovery restore nandroid backup you did after flashing custom recovery for the first time.
If you performed nandroid backup before permanently flashing custom recovery, your stock recovery should be now flashed.
If you still have custom recovery, extract recovery.img from your nandroid backup.
Move recovery.img to c:\mini-sdk location
Connect your device to the PC
Boot your device in fastboot mode (like you did during unlocking bootloader - power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "FASTBOOT")
Open up command prompt ( Start > Run > type cmd and hit enter ). The window that appears is called Command Prompt. <click here to see the image>
Navigate to where you unzipped "mini-sdk" package (type in Command Prompt: cd c:\mini-sdk). Note: make sure the path is not c:\mini-sdk\mini-sdk
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You have now stock boot, system and recovery partitions. Time to relock your bootloader.
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot oem lock

Heey all,
Thanx for the reactions.. :good:
I could not use revone because i cant connect with laptop when on..
And downloading latast RUU.exe (utility update) for my region, also not an option..
I downloaded the latst .401 RUU.zip.. I am lucky that it can connect with fastboot. :victory:
So my steps:
1) Change CID from 11111 to my stock CID. (fastboot oem writecid HTC__001)
2) Download RUU.zip with my region CID.
3) Used Guru Bootloader Reset Tool to Lock bootloader
4) S-on using (fastboot oem writesecureflag 3)
Now it is waiting for 2 weaks.. 2 weaks with a Samsung GT-S5690 with android 2.3.6 :victory:
Thanx all I hope my steps will help someone else

[HOW TO] Really go back to HTC stock ROM and solve boot problems - noob guide

I managed to solve boot problems with broken Desire 500 HTC's (not booting, orange led blinking, vibrating 7 times etc.)
Just put your phone without battery in a ziplock bag in the freezer for 1 hour (not kidding). Let it sit for another 1/2 hour at room temperature, then insert battery and try booting into fastboot. If it doesn't work, remove battery and try again in half hour. Try until it boots, I tried about 15 times before I managed to boot into fastboot mode. So don't give up. After you manage to boot into fastboot mode, follow this guide to restore your phone functionality.
Works for:
HTC Desire 500 and maybe other HTC phones
If you are on Windows 7, skip this next step. To install ADB and Fastboot drivers on Windows 8 and 10, forum member @kmark23 posted the following solution:
1. Uninstall all drivers for HTC phone
2. Install latest HTC Sync Manager
3. Connect phone in normal mode
4. Connect phone in fastboot mode (system reports unrecognized device)
5. Run regedit as administrator
6. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\usbflags
7. Right-click on usbflags, click new > key, name it 0BB40FF00100
8. Select 0BB40FF00100 and in the right window right click > new > binary value
9. Rename created binary value to SkipBOSDescriptorQuery
10. Right click SkipBOSDescriptorQuery > modify binary data, type 01 00 00 00 , click ok
11. Unplug usb cable and plug again.
12. In fastboot cmd window type fastboot devices, press enter and see if your device is listed
Connect your phone directly to the PC and don't use a USB 3.0 port, only 2.0
Links for download are down the page
Your battery should be at least 40% charged before doing this. And of course, do everything at your own risk, I am not responsible for any bricked devices.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Z4U = single sim
Z4DUG = dual sim
Download 0P3ZIMG HTC Europe or Asia for your phone (single or dual sim) and region
If you want to use the RUU files instead, your bootloader must be locked. Instructions on how to relock the bootloader are below. After that, just run the RUU file as admin on your pc and follow on screen istructions, but your phone must have the correct CID (country ID) for the region the RUU is intended for, or else it won't install. If the RUU installer force closes click here for the solution.
You can also extract the ROM file from the RUU then flash it using fastboot, just like 0P3ZIMG files in this guide. To extract the ROM file, run the RUU as admin and after the install wizard don't click nothing, just let the window opened. Click windows Start and in the search box type %temp% and go to the folder. While in temp folder, in the search window in windows explorer type rom.zip and press enter. Copy the file rom.zip to your fastboot folder and use it like 0P3ZIMG files described next in this guide.
Uninstall old usb drivers for HTC, Samsung Kies, and other similar phone software or drivers.
Download and install Java Runtime Environment
Download and install android SDK Tools. After installation is complete, a window will pop-up. Check only platform tools and Google usb driver and download.
Download and install HTC Sync Manager
Download fastboot binaries and extract fastboot-win.zip in a folder on the desktop
Browse to Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools and copy files AdbWinApi.dll, AdbWinUsbApi.dll and adb.exe to fastboot-win folder you extracted on the desktop
Reboot your pc.
1. Copy the file 0P3ZIMG for HTC Europe or Asia to fastboot-win folder on the desktop. Rename copied file to Z4DUGIMG.img or Z4UIMG.img, depending on your phone.
2. Inside the fastboot-win folder on the desktop, holding down the shift key, right click on an empty space and then click open command window here
3. Boot your phone in fastboot mode (hold Power and vol – keys)
4. Connect phone to the pc with a good data cable. You should see Fastboot usb on your phone screen and a driver installing on your pc.
5. On the command window opened earlier, type fastboot devices. A device should be listed.
6. Next, on the command window, write the following commands:
fastboot oem lock – wait for the phone to restart, and on the phone screen you should see *Relocked*
type fastboot oem rebootRUU - your phone will go to a black screen with the HTC logo
type fastboot flash zip Z4DUGIMG.zip or fastboot flash zip Z4UIMG.img, depending on your phone
wait, the process is very long. DON’T DO ANYTHING UNTIL IT FINISHES COMPLETELY
After the process is totally completed, type fastboot reboot
Done.
After restoring the whole system, if you still want to root your phone, unlock your bootloader and install ONLY this recovery and latest SuperSU:
PhilZ Touch Recovery 6.59.0

Does this solve problem with vibrations from rumrunner proto 0.71 S-OFF or vibrations still stay?And can i use only disabled driver signature enforcement on windows 8.1 without modifying registry i run windows 8.1 on BIOS not UEFI and have legacy boot mode so i can on F8 select disable driver signature enforcement on number 7.
This should solve any software caused problems, since it rewrites the bootloader, radio, recovery, system partition and data partition. Your phone will be S-ON and unrooted, just like it came from the factory. I don't know about the driver signature enforcement on windows 8.1, I didn't try it. I only tested the above solution on windows 10, both Legacy and UEFI boot.
If you are S-OFF you can use any RUU .exe file if you do this:
Boot into fastboot mode, enter the command "fastboot oem readcid". Make a note of your original CID.
Enter the command "fastboot oem writecid 11111111
Enter the command "fastboot read cid" - it should confirm your CID is 11111111
Reboot the bootloader.
Don't forget, before you flash the RUU you have to relock the bootloader with fastboot oem lock command
It doesn't work. After I type fastboot flash zip Z4UIMG.img i get an error "FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)".

Your bootloader must be locked before you flash
Your must flash the file matching your phone CID, otherwise it won't install. HTC signed encrypted files check the country id and firmware version before they install. So you can not downgrade the firmware, only upgrade it. Try the RUU_Z4_DUG_Asia file if the European does not work. Check your phone CID with fastboot oem readcid and see for wich country your phone is.

When you connect your phone, don't use a USB3.0 port, only 2.0. I have the same CID as you and had no error flashing European HTC file. Try with the bootloader unlocked, try another data cable, remove phone battery and start the process again. You can copy Z4DUGIMG to your SD card and reboot the phone in fastboot. Hboot scans the SD card, and the update should automatically begin, but I haven't tried this. As a last solution, use Rumrunner s-off to get s-off (works with Desire 500). After S-OFF write your CID with command "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" (SuperCID) and you should be able to install any HTC firmware for this phone.

Download the European RUU Z4_U (not the 0P3ZIMG). Run the RUU on your computer until the wizard comes up. While the RUU wizard is open, open Explorer in Windows and type %temp% in the navigation bar. There will be two folders with long encrypted names. In one of them you will find ROM.zip. Open it with 7zip and extract recovery.img or recovery_signed.img. Put it in the location were you've installed Android SDK tools. This is the stock HTC recovery and it is needed to run the RUU. Boot the phone into bootloader (power off, hold down volume and press power) and highlight FASTBOOT using the volume rocker and pressing power. Then connect the USB cable. You should see FASTBOOT USB.
Unlock your bootloader
Open a command prompt in ADB folder. Flash the stock recovery extracted in step 3 above using the following command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img or fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
Relock the bootloader using the following command:
fastboot oem lock
Re-run the RUU on your PC

For me ist not: recovery_signed, ist boot_signed, flashed it with the command: fastboot Flash recovery boot_signed.img , went fine, and then fastboot oem lock while in fastboot it restarted and showed above again Relocked, and then started RUU again and it's doing the same Thing, it just don't proceeds, it stays at 0/5 files.
EDIT: I didn't said that my phone Shows the black Background with silver/White HTC Logo during this try to send the 5 files, or whatever it tries to do...

I think there is a problem with your fastboot drivers or with the data cable you are using. I will try to get the recovery.img for your phone. What is your Hboot ver.?

Should the Bootloader be locked or unlocked during that process?
I think Unlocked, else i can't install TWRP/CWM

If you need CWM for your phone download it here PhilZTouch 6.59.0 (hboot-1.03.0001) One Sim by RealDob
Before you install the ROM from sd-card using CWM, your bootloader needs to be unlocked
Before flashing firmware.zip using fastboot, you need to relock the bootloader

Okay, i rebooted, it started, works now. What is with the Firmware zip?
Should i Flash it? And i would like to Flash a ROM, i think every ROM is better than the Stock.

firmware.zip rewrites all partitions (hboot, radio, recovery etc) and turns your phone back to stock, unrooted and s-off
Don't know about wich rom is better, I know only 2 roms for single sim, UFO and james Rom. My desire 500 is dual sim
