Need help getting out of boot menu. - HTC Desire C

Hi folks.
Edit: can't post pics. It's the fastboot /hboot menu
Info at top reads:
I've been able to unlock it using the HTCDev method but can't seem to get any further. the recovery and factory reset options don't do anything, just return me to the same menu.

If I try "Fastboot boot recovery.img" It does this:

Some more info from "fastboot getvar all":

What it seems is that its a bad download. Try Touch CMW or TWRP. And go out there and pick a rom to your liking =3

Ok, that worked it's relocked now.
Now what?

Hmm I get a different error now "signature verify fail"

Since I can't flash from fastboot I tried taking the rom.zip out of a RUU (RUU_GOLF_U_ICS_40A_HTC_Europe_1.35.401.1_Radio_10.08.98.09H_1.05.98.08M2_release_260338_signed)

Apparently I can flash the rom from fastboot, but it fails:
Do I just need the right one?

After locking the boot loader unlock it again and try telling cwm or twrp

1. UNLOCK BOOTLOADER
2. Download Hansoon2000'sToolkit (look in the dev section)
3. Extract the data folder to Desktop
4. Put TWRP recovery.img in the data folder (or whatever you names it)
5. Boot Phone to Boot loader and press Power button Once so it says Fastboot USB in red*
6. In the data folder where all the files are hold Shift and right click and empty space (nothing highlited) And selected "Open comamnd window here"
7. Type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
8. Press Power button again when it's finished so now it says USB Plug or something
9. Use volume buttons and go to boot to recovery
10. Go to mount, mount USB Storage
11. Put Rom and Gapps on the SD card
12. Unmount, go to wipe and wipe cache, system, data, dalvik cache (Doesn't matter which order)
13. Flash the Rom, and then Flash the gapps < Suggest CM10 first to get booting, then switch it up afterwards
14. Once Flashed go back, go to advanced and click "reboot bootloader"
15. When you have fastboot USB showing again, Download NOPE kernel V2/2.5 (2.5 not tested) use the 750 incase you cant boot high OC's
16. Place the boot750.img in the data folder again
17. hold shift and right click in an empty space (nothing highlighted) and click "Open command window here"
18. Now do fastboot erase cache
19. Then fastboot flash boot boot750.img
20. Fastboot Reboot
21. Enable WiFi, then Reboot.
* If it doesnt recognize the fastboot then your drivers aren't installed..
Easiest way your gonna get

It's in the Rom zip, assuming your not s-off it must be flashed separately
You can check if your s-off by going to hboot, toward the top it will say s-off or s-on...which basically means security off/on - its another level of security HTC added on above the bootloader
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2
It says s-on
so what do i do from here?
Put your boot.img into the folder which your fastboot and adb are and then open a terminal to the folder. Then put your phone into fastboot by entering the bootloader. Then type fastboot devices to see if your device is connected to the computer. If it comes up with your serial number continue if not try again. Then type fastboot flash boot.img and then go to recovery and reflash the rom.

No no... bad advice... ODIN is for Samsung...

Download either TWRP or WCX recovery. As long as your phone can get to the bootloader, you can get into Fastboot and flash the recovery again. Make sure the recovery is in the same folder where you have the adb.exe and fastboot.exe. Open up a command prompt, then change directory to where your fastboot and adb are. Type in fastboot flash recovery "recovery".img where "recovery" would be the name of the recovery file you download. This will flash pretty quickly. Once you get to that point, you probably are S-On so you need to make sure to extract the boot.img from the ROM you downloaded. Use either winrar or 7zip to extract the boot.img to the same location where you have the fastboot.exe and adb.exe. Then go to the command prompt again and change directories to the same folder where you have fastboot and adb. Type in fastboot flash boot boot.img. I usually would run this 3 times to make sure it loads properly. Once that is done reboot the phone again.
Sorry I used it on the HTC evolution 4g and it worked so I figured it would work for vivid

6. Open command prompt and navigate into your adb folder.
7. type the command
adb sideload <filename of the ROM you want to flash>

Exactly what I was thinking BUT you did it in the wrong order, you have to wipe the data, dalvik cache and the cache partition and then do sideload.
Order is important or the device will not go anywhere.

Wiping data & cache is fine in any order as long as you wipe it before you boot the phone on normal mode It won't have any issues as long as you're still in recovery.
He can also copy the rom into sd with the code:
Code:
adb push name_of_rom.zip /sdcard/
and flash it

Hi,
Im not sure if this works the same way like on HTC One S in example, but can't you just flash the stock rom using the related flashtool (or fastboot). Then root and install whatever you want...
Edit : I did this on several HTC phones I got for repair and it should work the same way - assuming HTC already released an stock Rom package.
I will do some research and report back. You can pm me and add me on gtalk.
Edit again: I found a stock rom package.

If you don't do the wiping first then a few files will be left over and you could wipe important files of that new custom rom.

I flashed it using the info from (android. gs/install-twrp-recovery-moto-x- android-4-4- kitkat)
Am I using the correct one? And after that when I try to boot to recovery, nothing happens.
Do it like so
1. Put phone in bootloader
2. Type mfastboot flash recovery name of img.img
3. Then type adb reboot recovery
4. Then install supersu via flashable zip or from the market place
But right after you flash the custom recovery you have to boot into the recovery before you let the device boot up or the recovery won't work.
How this helps

Thank you again for responding.
I am fairly familiar with using CMD and commands but I think I am missing a step. Dont I need to have the window open that contains certain files? I am running windows 8.
Right after I flash the fastboot image I get several options when I do the "hold power and down volume" and none of them mention twrp recovery. It just says "recovery". Is that normal?
Yes click the down volume until recovery is highlighted and then hit volume up to select it but you can just type in the cmd window adb reboot recovery and it will boot into recovery

How to install OTA
If s off and super cid don't lock your boot loader again leave it unlocked
Make sure your device is unrooted and matching cid.
Make sure all missing apps that was lost when unlocking bootloader is there in /data/preload/apps.
Make sure u have stock recovery and reboot to it and if u r doing it manually all u have to do is rename ota to update.zip and go to stock recovery then hold power and double press vol up for options then go to install from ext sd card and navigate to the file and make sure u put it on the root of the ext sd card.
How to install firmware
Extract firmware file from Ota and put it to the root of the ext sd card and rename it to P068IMG.zip then reboot to boot loader when ur there use power key to select bootloader and the file will load just follow instructions and u will be updated.
Option two is that u can use a pc using fastboot type fastboot oem rebootRUU then when it's loaded type fastboot flash zip firmware.zip it will install if it says flush again repeat the fastboot flash zip firmware.zip. when ur done type fastboot reboot-bootloader to check if your firmware is updated
S-ON Details on how to flash a rom
Download the rom and copy to your phone
Download fastboot tools if you don't have them
Extract the adb folder in the fastboot zip to somewhere (E.g. C:\adb)
Open the rom zip and extract the boot.img file to the adb folder
Connect your phone to your pc
Hold shift and right-click somewhere in the adb folder, select "Open command window here"
Restart your phone to bootloader, then select fastboot.
Type "adb devices" (don't type the " " for this or the others)
It should show your phone's serial number, if not download HTC Sync Manager and install
Type "fastboot erase cache"
Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
Type "fastboot erase cache" again
Type "fastboot reboot recovery" to get to CWM or TWRP, whichever you have installed
Backup your system, data, and cache
Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format system
Install the rom.
Good lookin out for this...Will be needed once Kit Kat is released for our phone.

Option two is that u can use a pc using fastboot type fastboot oem rebootRUU then when it's loaded type fastboot flash zip firmware.zip it will install if it says flush again repeat the fastboot flash zip firmware.zip. when ur done type fastboot reboot-bootloader to check if your firmware is updated

Hi, i have three questions, i am 901s, not supercid, s-off, unlocked bootloader, twrp recovery and rooted...if i am correct the steps are:
1. I´have already downloaded the update in the phone that prompted when i search for updates in the system.
2. I have to flash first the recovery from 901s...that says 4.4.2 or do i need other recovery for 4.3?
3. I should go to the recovery and it just updated?
4. flash twrp recovery and root again.
version 2:
1. Flash stock recovery.
2. Put the update in the external sd card and rename update
3. Update trough recoveryvand select the file in the sd?
4. flash twrp recovery and root again.
with the firmware version, i don´t understand the difference between instal only the firmware instead of the ota. what are the differences? and last. how can i do this with twrp and flash a zip?
Thanks in advance :good:

Query
Hi, I am still on Stock ROM but I have made following changes
current state
- Rooted (So shows Tampered)
- Flashed TWRP
- Removed some APK files from the build after rooting because I wanted to remove apps.
- Downloaded the new OTA update from the link.
Clarity on:
a) Can I use TWRP manager app to install the OTA update?
OR
b) Do I simply flash stock recovery to install update?
OR
c) Clean STOCK ROM Flash. Clean Stock Recovery Flash. Then flash OTA new Android 4.4.2 KK update?
Also, wanted to check if I can go ahead with - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50923456&postcount=12 directly using TWRP Recovery? :S
Never mind - figured that I need to be on complete stock to apply the OTA successfully. -_-

Thanks man. Appreciate it. I was just a little impatient. Flashed Zarboz's .zip and the phone is working. Cheers! :good:
Need some help guys. I think I screwed up the process .. now my phone will not start.
When I power on my phone, the HTC logo will appear. After that it will slowly dim and stretch to the entire screen. Then the phone will restart again with the HTC logo appearing and the same process repeats.
I tried to load the bootloader and now there are 2 lines.
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
:cyclops::cyclops:
Tried factory reset but the same process as above repeats itself. No way I can reset the phone.
Any advise is greatly appreciated.

Thanks daorderdillon. Forgive me as I am no expert on this. How can I reflash the ROM as I cannot even start the phone?
Appreciate if there are some simple guidance.

Thanks. Before that, I would like to share some info on my current situation.
On my phone, when I go into bootloader I can see the following:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
DLXP_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.55.0000
RADIO-4A.21.3263.14
OpenDSP-v32.120.274.0909
OS-2.18.707.2
eMMC-boot 2048MB
Nov 25 2013,14:00:10.0
I have downloaded this ROM -> OTA_DLXPLUS_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_hTC_Asia_HK_3.06.708.3-2.21.708.1_release_3558176bskc6u7eupsku7d on my SD card.
Since my phone is S-ON, I'm following the instructions on how to flash a rom.
At this step: Open the rom zip and extract the boot.img file to the adb folder, I am stuck. I opened the rom zip and I can't find any boot.img.
Did I missed something?
---------- Post added at 09:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 AM ----------
Also .. at this step I'm stuck.
Type "adb devices" (don't type the " " for this or the others)
It should show your phone's serial number, if not download HTC Sync Manager and install
When I typed adb devices, it shows "List of devices attached" but it's empty (nothing), even though my phone is on FASTBOOT USB and I have installed HTC Sync Manager.

I downloaded this file -> dlxpul_signed_stock_1.11.708.1_CL215607_release-keys and put the entire zip file into the ext SD card of my phone.
Went to recovery, and chose Apply from SD card. Then the following message appeared.
Device_CW_Install: No CW files. Skip cw installation.
Write host_mode: 0 done
Check cid failed!
-- Invalid operation. --
Write host_mode: 0 done
And the phone will reboot, HTC logo appears and dims stretching vertically from top to bottom and reboots again.
Perhaps my boot.img was corrupted. Where should I copy the boot.img from to replace it?
Damn u have to flash a custom Rom and try to get s off and super cid

[SCRIPT] Recovery Flashing Script

Hello Guys! I made this little script for the people that dont know adb/fastboot commands and want to install a custom recovery
This will ONLYwork on UNLOCKED bootloaders.
Make sure "USB-Debugging" is enabled and adb/fastboot drivers have been properly installed
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for bricked devices or nuclear warfare. I made this simple script for those who can follow simple instructions.
1st. Download the Recovery Flashing script from here: http://goo.gl/ZtaUFe
2. Unzip the files to a folder on your desktop, or where ever you would like, just remember where you unzipped it to.
3. Download the recovery of your choice:
[m8][CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2703223
OR
[RECOVERY][m8] TWRP 2.7.0.0 touch recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2717932
4. Place the recovery you downloaded in the previous step into the folder you unzipped the Recovery Flashing script.
5. Rename the recovery you downloaded to Recovery that way it appears as "Recovery.img" in the folder. If it has and extra ".img" at the end, it will fail to flash.
6. After you have done all the steps above, Simply click the "Recovery-Flasher.bat" and follow its instructions it presents, If you have done everything correctly you phone will boot into recovery at the end of the script
I hope this has made life a little easier for our new comers. Please dont forget to hit the thanks button!!! :good::good::good:

Sorry but you will need a window pc to use this tool. You can download one of the recoveries in the OP then use the app Flashify in the play store to flash the recovery .
