1. fast boot uncheck, flight mode
2. USB debugging on
3. downloaded revolutionary, got beta key
4. removed HTC sync, installed latest drivers
5. connected mobile in "charge only" mode
6. opened revolutionary as administrator
7. entered beta key
"Waiting for fastboot" .. it doesn't seem to be going further.

Did you download the HTC drivers from the Revolutionary documentation page?
Sounds like a driver issue to me.

As tpblake notes, this problem is usually associated with the HTC drivers.
Try installing the drivers given on the Revolutionary page
OR
try installing HTC software (Sync i think?) which contains these drivers.
it should work

Note: It does not work on 2.2.1 Wildfire's (i.e. - Any bought after Feb - March 2011)
I first want to thank everyone at UnrEVOked for what they've done. I'm posting this because there aren't any really detailed instructions. Its an easy enough root, but I know I've been there before and even the simplest things can be tough if things aren't laid out. So here's a step by step tutorial.
Due to some bugs, Unrevoked 3.2 was taken down shortly after being released, but the updated version is now LIVE! So obviously we're going to bring you a video tutorial on how to do it! Thanks to the guys at Unrevoked for giving us this simple solution to rooting the HTC Buzz (Wildfire).
LINK TO VIDEO WALKTHROUGH FOR HOW TO ROOT THE WILDFIRE
◄●REQUIRED DOWNLOADS●►
EVERYONE: Unrevoked3. Download the version for your OS.
WINDOWS USERS: unrEVOked modified USB driver
◄●How to Install HBOOT Drivers (Windows Users ONLY)●►
If you're using Windows, you're going to have to install the HBOOT drivers first. You can follow this video tutorial:
How to Install HBOOT Drivers
and follow along with these written instructions provided by the Unrevoked team:
Download the unrEVOked modified USB driver and expand it somewhere you will remember.
Turn off your phone, then boot it into the HBOOT menu by holding power and volume down.
On your phone, you will have to select HBOOT USB at that menu by pressing volume down four times, then power. Wait until the screen flashes through an “SD Checking” message before pressing buttons; otherwise, the phone will ignore keypresses.
Connect the phone to your Windows machine with a USB cable and wait for the phone to say HBOOT USB PLUG on screen.
Open Device Manager.
Click Start, then right click on Computer, then click Properties, then click Device Manager.
Under Other devices, you should now see the Android 1.0 device.
Right click on Android 1.0 and click Update Driver Software:
Click on Browse my computer for driver software.
Click on Browse and select the Android USB Driver folder on on your computer, click ok, then click next.
You should get a status bar indicating that the driver is installing. If you get any warnings, just click Ok.
Your driver should install.
Click Close and make sure Android Bootloader Interface is listed under Android Phone.
◄●Instructions●►
Make sure you downloaded Unrevoked3 for your OS.
If you're on Windows, make sure you "uninstall HTC Sync or any other program that might talk to the phone over USB (doubletwist, etc). They will cause problems" (Unrevoked.com).
Plug your phone into your computer with USB.
Drag down from the notification bar on your phone and select "Charge Only" and "Remember this"
Make sure your phone has USB Debugging turned on by going to Menu>>Settings>>Applications>>Development and checking USB debugging.
Run the Reflash application that you downloaded.
Unrevoked will run its processes. Follow the few instructions it gives and thats it!
You're now rooted!
EDIT: If that doesn't work for you, follow these instructions:

Got my wildFire Rooted!
Most ways here didn't work to get it going, but here is how i got it working:
01. Installed HTC Synch
02. Ran HTC Synch with WildFire Connected
03. Closed HTC Synch
04. Downloaded Unrevoked 3 and ran it
05. Let it do the whole process (it did everything by itself (rebooting the wildfire in hboot mode etc...)
05. Installed HBOOT USB Drivers when it asked for it
06. At some stage it says something like rooting ... safe to restart if it doesn't work, it stays on that screen, close unrevoked3
07. Disconnected WildFire
08. Uninstalled HTC Synch (only the program, not the drivers)
09. Connected Wildfire to PC
10. Ran UNREVOKED3 again
11. HTC Wildfire is rooted now

Hi EveryOne!
I have some problems, with launching unrevoked 3 reflash_package.exe.
I did the USB driver setup, and it works.
I turned on the phone, USB debugging is allowed, just charging, no HTC sync on Laptop (win7 32bit), connect the phone via USB, launching reflash, it says: waiting for device... after 10 minutes, it is the same...
What should i do?

Hi,

Here's a good place to start.
You probably have HTC Sync installed. Uninstall it and instal only drivers from Revolutionary documentation page.
You really think I haven't googled it before making a thread?
Also I don't have htc sync installed.
Uninstall all which is connected to HTC and their drivers, reboot your PC, install drivers pack, try different USB hub. If all that doesn't work definitely try with another PC.

You'd be surprised how many people don't google before asking. My bad.
It's been a while since I used revolutionary, but I don't think you need to be in fastboot mode. Boot the phone normally and check USB debugging. This may have not turned up in a google search, but I'm pretty sure its mentioned in the..... Instructions.... On their website...
Edit: btw the first hit in the link ZaySk provided pretty much covers every issue you could have while using revolutionary.

I think that revolutionary needs a working rom and a phone booted. For fasboot are only drivers needed, but I recommend to connect phone in fastboot mode just to install drivers, not causing a PC reboot requirement. After the drivers are installed just boot up the phone, connect to PC and run revolutionary.

Make sure your device is not in fastboot mode... It should be booted up.. when on the main screen connect to system and try revolutionary.

So I'm trying to flash the Google Play Edition RUU on my device. I have S-Off. When I try to read my CID, it says < waiting for device > and gets no further. I completely deleted my sdk and reinstalled it because I had read sometime this would be caused by needing to update your sdk. It does the same thing when I try to writecid. Does anyone know why it would hang like this when trying to read or write my CID. I'm running ARHD 13.3 with TWRP (don't know what version number) if that would have anything to do with this.
EDIT: Something else I noticed that may or may not be relevant. When I reboot into the bootloader, my computer says device not recognized.
Try using this guide.
Seems you don't have the driver installed.
However, did you try fastboot command in fastboot?
To use fastboot you need to
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
To use adb you need to be in recovery or live in the os.

I tried what that guide said prior to posting this thread. However, upon re-reading it, I think I have discovered my issue. My laptop only has USB 3.0 ports, and they said they could not get it to work over USB 3.0. I will set up the SDK on my wife's computer and use a USB 2.0 port and see if that resolves the issue. I'll investigate to see if what I'm trying to accomplish can be done on ChromeOS too, cause I'd rather use my Chromebook than take over my wife's computer.

Hi, Yes of course, its a great guide and i did excatly whay they said to my laptop, and i could make it work only for a few minutes, after that the system freezed ( i.e no applications were opening and the system couldn't perform any operation other than right click and left click, couldn't turn off the system even and couldn't open the task manager too ) ,luckily before the system freezed, i quickly changed the kernel of my phone. Then I had no other go other than reverting the USB settings to Microsoft driver.

Hey so today I decided to updato to one of the 4.4 roms.
So I downloaded the rom + an update do CWM.
Since I installed CWM on my htc one I updated to windows 8.1 so I have no drivers for the fast boot or anything installed and had no idea that there where problems installing those in windows 8.1.
So just to test i jumped on my old CWM 6.0.3.2 and tried installing the rom this one->(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2520076)
No sucess.
So I thought no problem I update cwm and then try again. Problem is after trying installing the new rom and failing I can't boot into my previous rom.
Now I can't update the rocovery and I don't have any other roms rather then the one that doesn't work on my phone.
I'm kinda freaking out about all this since I have been trying to fix this for the last 2 hours without any success.
Please if someone could point me in the right direction I will be incredibly thankfull

Follow this thread to install drivers on your device http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2232799
grab fastboot platform tools from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1590800, don't worry about all the text just download platform tools file unzip and place folder on your desktop. Once inside the folder on a blank spot hold down shift key on your keyboard and right mouse click, you should see and Option to 'Open a Command window here" do that, then you should be OK from there (if you have installed drivers)
type "adb reboot bootloader", this should take your device to fastboot mode, then type "fastboot erase cache" and then try booting into your phone into recovery it should fire up, if it doesn't simply reflash recovery and erase cache again. (you can also side load a ROM if you have to in recovery (but once you get your drivers installed you should be able to place ROM directly on SD Card or install the nandroid backup)
Hope this helps

Secondly I'm kinda freaking out because I simply can't follow the tutorial on the first link you sent me.
I simply can't install the drivers, once I go to fastboot mode, my htc on is detected as unknown USB device and once I select the downladed drivers from that thread and go to device manager to change the drivers, It simply says I have the last one and doesn't install anything...
I did a little research and found that in windows 8.1 you need to disable driver verification on the advanced boot option, did that, did nothing to help me and my situation.
Any advice?

Right I've already looked at a similar tutorial and in device manager I have 2 entries for Renesas USB 3 nothing saying intel. But once I click them I find that the driver version and driver provider and date, is exacly the same as the ones shown on the tutorial. Problem is once I go to update the driver and browse to the x64 folder (where I place the modified files) it does exactly nothing just like it does when I try to update the drivers of the HTC one when in fast boot...
Did you try downloading HTC sync from HTC them self's?
I'm running 8.1 and the official HTC sync drivers work just fine. Uninstall any previous HTC drivers and restart before installing HTC sync. Then after all that plug in the phone in fastboot and verify that its installed and recognized.
Then use HTC one all in one tool or some other similar app and use it to sideload a rom

After trying and failing to update the fastboot drivers I installed htc sync and rebooted. Still have the same problem. Now I may have not unnistalled the previous drivers that allowed me to access the htc one storage normaly when a rom is installed so that maybe the issue.
How would you unnistall the previous drivers? Are they in the device manager?

If it was the htc driver install program then you would uninstall it like any other program. If you did it manually by going into device manager then simply find the device and uninstall it from within device manager.. It should give you an option to delete the drivers after uninstall

So I take a break because I'm getting kinda worried about all this and really needed to "Chill the F*** down"
So I tried your idea, went to the control panel and unnistalled HTC sync and HTC drivers and iptinstaller (I think this one is installed with HTC sync), then I rebooted and installed htc sync again, rebooted and then booted my phone up and went to fastboot, then plugged the usb cable (that is plugged in a motherboard port not in the front pannel) to the phone, it displayed FASTBOOT USB as normal, waited a couple of seconds for windows to say that the device is not recognized as it did before...
Any thoughts? My biggest issue is that I have 2 hours to fix this since tomorrow I really need this phone...that's whats freaking me out
Any idea or anyway to fix this will be trully appreciated since At the moment I literelly don't know what to do anymore...
If after uninstalling the phone and the drivers then installing HTC sync and the problem has not been fixed.
Fastest way would be using Linux since the drivers are made by you essentially. And fastboot and adb are installed and recognized

One thing you said unnistall the phone and the drivers the only thing I did was I went to the controll panel and unnistalled everything HTC related, is the phone unnistalled just by doing that?

It shouldn't make a difference either or would delete the drivers.
As for the virtual machine I always just created a partition on the harddrive and dual booted Ubuntu and windows

I was completely freaking out as soon as the problem kicked in and only now did I realize that I had and old rom backup on the recovery I could not believe it, sorry for the inconvinience I may have caused you guys.
About the drivers I simply could not get anything to work anything, hopefully someone should figure it out.
Just a quick and much more simple question, how can I update my recovery to the last CWM version?
I tried rom manager which only shows a version before the last one and I wanted to see if the last one worked with the 4.4 rom.
Anyways thanks for everyone who trie to help me in the first place it's much appreciated

I was completely freaking out as soon as the problem kicked in and only now did I realize that I had and old rom backup on the recovery I could not believe it, sorry for the inconvinience I may have caused you guys.
About the drivers I simply could not get anything to work anything, hopefully someone should figure it out.

Did you disable the driver signing on Windows 8? That's got to be done before any of the driver installation or adb/fastboot setup stuff.
I can help you get it figured out via team viewer maybe later tonight. The latest TWRP would probably solve your issue, it works for the new 4.4 roms, the goo.im app would probably install it but you really need to be using fastboot and adb if you're going to be flashing stuff.
Once you get the driver issue solved you just download the recovery, it will be a .img file, drop it in the right folder, rename recovery.img, and type the command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.

As far as I know, On windows 8.1 With a H.Boot of 1.54 or above ADB/Fastboot will not work in the recovery? Not 100% sure, just read it somewhere on here, have you recently updated to 8.1? Failing that, reinstall HTC Sync, Reboot, Then uninstall HTC Sync (-JUST- HTC Sync, when it asks leave the drivers installed) Then reboot again, and try again, thats what I did when my ADB Stopped working and it got it going again
Hope you get it sorted soon.
Hello all, I am in need of some of this community's expert advice. I really don't know what I'm doing, but can follow instructions well enough. I just sold my HTC One, and I need to return it back to stock. I am currently using Illusion-4.2.2.2.1_beta. Some info:
CID-CWS__001
HBOOT - 1.44
MID - PN07120
Also I'm running windows 8 which I understand can cause issues. I have no access to a Win7 or Vista machine.
In searching around these forums I've found some helpful info, but I couldn't really find anything that addresses the main issue I'm having here - which is that my device isn't recognized. I'm following the guide here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541082&nocache=1. I've made it as far as turning S-OFF, adb recognized my device then but doesn't any longer it seems. I cannot get a getvar because my device won't be recognized. HTC Sync won't recognize the phone. It seems I am stuck. I would really appreciate any help.

I feared as much. But I do not have access to a W7 machine. Is there any other alternative?

I did try that but it didn't work. Said the drivers were already updated. Tried fastboot commands again and just says waiting for device. I suppose I will have to get my hands on a W7 PC. Thank you for the suggestion though.

Have you considered Ubuntu Live USB (no need to install!!), just run it off a USB. it's in the FAQs of the guide.... the OS problems are mentioned there.
