[Q] HELP: Messed up my kernel and boot.img - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know, two very bad mistakes. I was excited. First thing I did wrong was install a GE kernel when I should have installed a sense one..then I used fast boot to write TWRP to my boot image by accident instead of recovery. I tried to update RUU using fastboot, but I keep getting errors. I cant mount my internal storage, can't side load either.
Whenever I reboot, I boot into TWRP instead of system now. I probably have to restore, but not being able to RUU or side load, I dont know what to do. Please help!

Just boot into fastboot and flash a new boot.img which matches your ROM

Thanks! But where do I get a boot.img file? I tried looking but couldn't find one. I could just find ZIP ROMs and RUUs

Choose the 2.24 firmware file, this one which includes the kernel

Extract boot.img, flash it, then reflash TWRP correctly also

Thanks a lot!
Is this the boot.img that I should flash:
hboot_signedbyaa.img
Also, after that, should I RUU?
Thanks!

Yes. You also should flash stock recovery before you flash the RUU, just to make sure everything goes right.

The RUU flashes the stock recovery so you don't need this. You don't even need the boot.img if you're going to flash an RUU. Just connect the phone in fastboot mode and then run the RUU. So long as you're S-OFF it should run fine

Your phone doesn't need a kernel to boot to recovery or fastboot, recovery has its own kernel built in... Just goto fastboot and flash a new boot.img
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Hboot_signedbyaa.img isn't a boot.img it's a hboot

Hi mate, in your signature I red OS 2.24.4018 / HBoot 1.54.0000 and now "tadaaaa" S-OFF and so on.
How did you do that? I've damaged my brain and gnawn down my nails but nothing works ....
Have you installed the 1.54.0000 on top of the 1.44.0000 (unlocked + S-OFF) and your HBOOT is still unlocked and S-OFF?
Or are u using the black&beauty ONE?
Then ou are a lucky man I guess.
God bless you.

I was S-OFF on 1.44 and then did the OTA so I kept S-OFF - sorry to get your hopes up!

I think i read your post regarding the same yesterday.
you did not that you have a custom recovery installed...
in this case you will not be able to flash the ruu as you are required to be stock with s-on
head over to arhd thread to get the closest experience to the stock rom.

In order to install the ICS OTA after it has been downloaded, you will need to restore the stock HTC recovery and then relock your bootloader.

Grab a RUU and extract the recovery.img file from the ROM.zip. Then flash the recovery image in FASTBOOT USB mode using
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Did you already relock the bootloader? You need to flash the stock recovery first, then relock the bootloader.
Did you extract the recovery.img file from the PG32IMG.zip file or are you just trying to have the bootloader flash the PG32IMG.zip?
The signature checking failure leads me to believe that the bootloader is locked/relocked.

How did you end up flashing the recovery? Did you use the PG32IMG.zip and copy it to your sd card or did you extract the recovery.img file and manually flash it?
If you used the PG32IMG.zip file then that probably changed the mainver value and that's why the OTA is not running.
Well guess what, my device is now crashed !, it is stock at the green HTC logo, I can not access anything except for the bootloader !.
i've installed the Android Revolution HD but it didn't work as well, my device is now in mess.

You never did answer my question about how you flashed the HTC stock recovery.
Anyway, If you unlocked your bootloader and reinstalled a custom Recovery and then attempted to install ARHD, did you manually extract and flash the boot.img file in FASTBOOT USB mode?
That may be all you need to do to get the phone booted.

[Q] Fastboot freezez...Help required

I am S OFF, UNLOCKED.
When I boot into bootloader and into fastbootmode, as soon as i connect the cable to my phone, the fastboot USB mode freezez... No keys work that time...I have to press and hold power button for a few seconds in order to reboot the phone. This happen always with me.
I wanted to backup my Stock recovery by booting into custom recovery using this command fastboot boot name_of_your_custom_recovery.img . It sends the recovery and everything is okay on the PC, but nothing happens on the phone.
But I did flash the unlock.bin via fastboot, that way it works....I am not getting what the problem is.
I need to backup my STOCK RECOVERY (HTC CID_J15) before flashing CWM.
ANy help would be appreciated.

Not sure about your fastboot issue, but just an FYI if you have upgraded your firmware and now have hboot 1.54 you can no longer use the command
Code:
fastboot boot name_of_your_custom_recovery.img
to boot to a non installed recovery. That can only be done with the older 1.44 hboot.
Since you have s-off, if you can get fastboot working, you should be able to flash hboot 1.44 if you the need the ability to boot a non installed recovery.

Could go a few different routes. First there are tons of users who posted the stock recovery on XDA and other sites. Also it could be pulled from the RUU if you device has one or one of the posted nandroid backups. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39588860)
This site has the original retail dump which has the stock recovery:
http://www.modaco.com/topic/361407-htc-one-retail-release-dump/
You have s-off, so you can downgrade back to hboot 1.44 and boot a custom recovery. Just flash the stock 1.44 hboot from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2316726
When finished you can leave hboot 1.44 or flash back up to 1.54.
Lastly if you have root you can look around (Will have to search) for how to pull the recovery.img like a system dump.
Best of luck.

No there are differences for some of the different models and carriers. You will have to match your CID to one of the nandroids or find the proper RUU.
The stock recovery was updated in 2.24 I think, but I am not positive since I didn't ever use it.
It will only take a few minutes to flash the hboot to 1.44 so that you can boot a recovery and take a backup for yourself. I would recommend that method.

Um, not sure where your getting that but just flashing stock hboots will not brick your phone. I have switched my hboot around between like 4 different versions 10+ times to test some things after the firmware upgrades.
Even the modified one are no problem.
Oh well. Good luck.

How did you install these custom recoveries? You need to flash them in FASTBOOT USB mode with an unlocked bootloader.
You need to copy the recovery's img file to the same directory where you install and run ADB.exe and FASTBOOT.exe from and then enter the following command:
fastboot flash recovery [name of recovery.img file]
I did so

I forgot to say, that hboot shows "eMMC-boot", what does it mean?

Hey I tried installing a 4.4 rom, got a boot loop recovery keeps crashing and I can get into fastboot now.
The computer is recognizing the phone and I can use fastboot to flash a new recovery but CWM and TWRP recoveries continue to crash on reboot... What can I do?
S-On or s-off ?
either way your best bet is an RUU. the GPE RUU if your s-off or the proper carrier/region RUU if your s-on.

Thank you for the reply, I believe it is s-On the top of the bootloader screen shows tampered & unlocked..
if it doesn't say s-off and you don't remember doing S-off then you're s-on.
What is your CID? you'll need to track down an RUU that matches. Also since your s-on you can only go up in versions, not down so you have to match the mainver.

What hboot do you have
1. Download a fresh copy of the latest twrp 2.6.3.3 from here ------> http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
2. Throw that recovery image into your fastboot folder and rename it twrp
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

Not really bro. Try to sideload any ROM, I'd shoot for a GE ROM since its a little smaller. As soon as you can get into an OS I hope you try to s-off lol. If you were s-off your problem would be fixed

boot.img is the kernel, not the system.
have you tried the fastboot flash command with a valid boot.img (not revcovery)?
or if you were trying to flash recovery and not boot.img have you tried again using the right command?
sounds like it should be easier to fix than go back to stock with ruu....
Surely flashing a Rom in recovery would fix that?

im s-on so im not sure if that's gonna make any difference
and my biggest problem is the signature verification (in recovery and boot-loader )
You cab disable signature verification in cwm. And as you are s on you can only flash newer versions or RUU not old ones. Flashing a Rom any Rom would flash the boot image and should be all good

Open the ruu zip that you downloaded, extract the boot.img and flash it with fastboot flash boot boot.img.

rom.zip is encrypted you can't extract from it
find your stock recovery here >> http://d-h.st/users/guich/?fld_id=29380#files
If it's not their you'll need a decrypted RUU to extract the boot.img

The ruu is probably encrypted, so you can't open it. Find someone with the same firmware and ask them to make a backup of their boot partition, you can then flash the boot image backup in fastboot.
