[Q] Stuck between Roms

I was flashing custom ROMs and accidentally soft-bricked my phone after attempting to go from an alpha Ice Cream Sandwich build to flashing the RUU of the official Sense 3.0 OTA (I know, stupid rookie mistake. I was tired). I tried fixing it, but so far have come up empty handed. The bootloader has just been unlocked through htcdev.com after multiple failed attempts and previously was S-OFF through AlphaRev's Revolutionary (S-ON => Revolutionary S-OFF => S-ON => HTCDEV unlock).
Bootloader reads:
VIVO PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.00.0000
RADIO-3822.10.08.28_M
eMMC-boot
Nov 1 2011,20:33:03
When I attempt to boot, it stays on the htc logo screen, then turns off and back on and into recovery.
Does anyone else have this problem or know how to solve it?
I'd like to flash the new RUU.
So far I've tried:
Flashing htc recovery so I can try flashing the RUUs again. No luck
I even modified the android-info.txt inside the RUUs.
I've tried the WWE RUU, the Asia HK RUU and the Asia WWE RUU (the guy from pakistan who posted in the general thread)
Should I be downgrading using a goldcard?

A goldcard is not for downgrading as such, its for flashing another carriers rom. So by all means, try flashing stock RUU with goldcard if you can't locate RUU from your carrier.
You mentioned trying to flash stock recovery but having no luck. With recovery or RUU after that?

Since you are in Canada, you probably have a IncS S710A/PG3212000 model. All of the 3.0x RUUs are for the PG3213000 model, so your only hope is that the unlocked bootloader is going to allow you to flash a modified PG32IMG.zip that has the android-info.txt file changed for modeled PG3212000.
I was able to do this with the 3.08.405.3 WWE RUU, but in my case I have permanent S-OFF via the XTC clip, so the real question is whether the 2.00.0000 unlocked HBOOT will allow you to flash a modified RUU ROM.zip or not. Good luck. You may just have to settle for custom ROMs.

I can flash the stock recovery all right by extracting recovery.img from the RUU.zip through fastboot. Sorry, I was unclear. I meant that flashing the RUUs through the bootloader still didn't work even after flashing the recovery. It's mentioned somewhere that you need the htc recovery to flash the RUU, and that it won't work with CWM.

Actually, I own a S710e/PG32130 model. I bought it from Taiwan, unlocked.

I tried the HK one first, because I thought it might be the one that Taiwan receives (Apparently the WWE was for European countries?). Anyways, that worked (sort of, that's how I got this updated Hboot and radio). Then I couldn't boot so I tried the other Asia WWE and the Euro WWE and neither will flash.

If the device is unlocked you can just extract the update zip file and flash it manually. Probably just needs boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
(Although this depends on what exactly is unlocked and with what method,something your posts do not state)

I mean I bought it off contract, for the full price of 500 dollars. There are no carrier markings on it either. I bought it from an independent shop, not from a carrier store.

Do you mean extract the rom.zip from the RUU.exe, flash the rom.zip as PG32IMG.zip in the bootloader and then fastboot flash boot.img (extracted from PG32IMG.zip)? I've tried that, I'll try it again.
Thanks for the help by the way, and happy new year!

Actually just meant the boot.img as there seems to be a common trend of it failing on this phone with symptoms of stopping at splash screen.
On that note when flashing img file in fastboot you need to specify the partition you wish to flash, which is missing in your post, it should read:
fastboot flash(command) boot(partition) boot.img(file)
Minus the brackets of course.
Happy new year to you also

Flashing the boot.img still isn't working. I've tried all three boot.imgs.
EDIT: I've been doing
"fastboot flash boot boot.img"

Flash a custom recovery and boot into it. Wipe cache, dalvik cache and do factory reset. Restart phone and give it 5-10 mins boot time in case its trying to rebuild dalvik cache
@tpbklake can you see what filesystem stock rom is using please

The stock ROM uses EXT3 for the filesystem.

I used CWM, and it's just like before. It shows the htc screen for around 10 seconds then reboots into recovery.

Flash 4ext recovery so you can confirm that your partitions are formatted to the correct filesystem (ext3) I'm not 100% but I think ics may use ext4

Yeah, great idea. I had a feeling it was to do with ICS. I'll get right on that.

Whelp, looks like they're all ext3 unfortunately.

OK, here is a thought after rereading your original post. You currently have HBOOT 2.00.0000 and it has been unlocked via HTCDEV.com, right?
In order to flash a RUU with HBOOT 2.00.0000 in place, it must be in a LOCKED/RELOCKED state. So one suggestion you could try is go into FASTBOOT mode and enter
fastboot oem lock
to relock and then try and run the Sense 3.0 RUU that you attempted in the first post.

Okay, it wasn't locked before. After issuing the command, the bootloader now says
*** RELOCKED ***
*** Security Warning ***
at the top. I tried flashing the PG32IMG.zip, but now it's giving me a CID error. I did getvar all to find out out my cidnum is HTC__621 while in the android-info.txt for the RUU it is HTC__622. Is it enough to edit the android-info.txts or do I need a goldcard or something else to flash the RUU? I'm going to try the other RUUs as well.
EDIT: I just checked all my RUUs. None of them are HTC__621. The closest is HTC__622. Yikes.

All the guides I've found require me to install GoldCardHelper from the Android Market or to use adb. My phone doesn't work. Is there any other way to create a goldcard?

OK, so once again reading through this thread, here is what the current status of your phone is:
HBOOT 2.00.0000 RELOCKED
You can boot into HBOOT USB and FASTBOOT USB mode, right? There is currently no RUU for your CID, so a goldcard is needed.
When you were attempting to flash the boot.img files in FASTBOOT mode, the phone was in a LOCKED state, not the UNLOCKED state, right?
Since you can't boot the phone so you can use adb.exe plus the fact that zergRush cannot temp root HBOOT 2.00.0000 anyway, you could try going to HTCDEV.com and follow the unlock bootloader procedure to change HBOOT to UNLOCKED. Then you could retry flashing a boot_signed.img from the PG32IMG.zip file in FASTBOOT mode.

[Q] Soft bricked HTC one - Help!!

Noob mistake, so much easier with samsung phones.
Ive just sold my HTC one on ebay and attempted to return it to stock from android revolution HD 12.
unfortunatly after relocking the bootloader it seems that i chose the wrong RUU and now its messed up. Im in the UK and I choose a Europe version but it didnt work, in my fastboot screen the phone states my radio is 4A. 14. 3250. 13. But it said asia, needless to say I tried it as it was the most accurate match to my phone, and that didnt work either. The phone was bought unlocked from Phones4U in the UK, which RUU do I need.
Here is the link to the list of available RUU's
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39588860
any help would be appreciated as I need to get this working to send off, thanks

Which hboot do you have?
If you have 1.44 use the revone tool and you can use all the ruu that you want.
But, for which ruu do you need now, you have to give us your build number like 1.29.xxx.x

[Q] Help! Problems to unroot M7_UL!

Hello everyone,
This is my fisrt time writing in this forum, hope you guys can share some knowledge with me. Here is my issue:
I bought a HTC One to a guy a few weeks ago with barely no use. The thing is that I didn´t know at that time that the device was rooted with the MaximusHD. When I realized about it I reset my phone to factory settings and the new 4.3 3.22.1540.1 got installed. Thought it was ok but it is still doing some weird things so I decided to unroot the device to stock, also for warranty porpuses.
The problem comes when I try to download the RUU for my device due to I cannot find it. Should I do it through other method? Do I have to S-off to downgrade and install the RUU 1.29?
My phone is the following:
M7_UL PVT Ship S-On RH
Baseband 4A.17.3250.14
Hboot 1.54.0000
OpenDSP v31.120.274.0617
It is the european unlocked/international version bought in Spain.
I would really appreciate if someone could give a hand on this and guide me in through this process. I was an iPhone guy and now I'm freaking lost.
Thanks so much!

Your bootloader should already be unlocked, so simply get S-OFF using Rumrunner, then follow this guide.

Thanks for the reply. I've tried to s-off my htc but it hasnt worked. So I downloaded the recovery stock version and after installing it, the device told me that my phone doesnt appear to be rooted and if i wanted to install supersu, i declined and then made a recovery. Phone looks like unrooted, although within the bootloader it still shows "tampered" and "Unlocked". The recovery mode that the phone had installed has disappeared so I dont know what to do now, should I continue to s-off the device and then put it down to hboot 1.44 and follow the unroot guide???
I would like to make sure my device is unrooted in order to gain warranty privilages just in case i need to send out my phone to htc...
Thanks!

Just a quick note here, "version-main: <blank>" I never like that.
BTW, when posting "fastboot getvar all" it's preferably to remove IMEI and s/n; we don't need to see that.
You should probably get s-off as @attanasi0 suggested and then run a "HTC__304" downgrade RUU. (You can only downgrade if you're S-Off)
Just my two cents

Today after trying to s-off without success, I downloaded the recovery stock version for the rom I had and flashed it and the recovery mode that I had before disappeared and the baseband upgraded to 4A.20...instead of the 4A.17 that I had before that.

Well from the information available, you have
- hboot 1.54
- m7_ul
- PN0710000
- CID HTC__304
this would lead me to assume you have a 2.24.401.x based phone.
I would try to get one of the following Guru Reset ROM:
2.24.401.8 : http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-8-zip/
2.24.401.1 : http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-1-zip/
flash one of them in recovery, then follow the rumrunner steps to try to achieve S-Off.
If that is successful, then you can downgrade back to stock, using this RUU (exe): http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/
check your "fastboot getvar all" after that.

Thanks for the help. I have downloaded the Rom you gave me the link for but I dunno how to flash it due to I lost access to the teamwin recovery mode and when I click recovery onto the bootloader it goes to a black screen with a caution simbol in red and I have to reboot it.
I have tried with the goomanager to flash that rom but it doesnt let me. Any advice in this regard? I can tell goomanager to find an open recovery script (openrecovery-twrp-2.6.1.0-m7.img), should i do this? Or Im gonna end up with a bricked phone?
Thanks!

"black screen with a caution simbol in red" that's stock recovery, you need to flash back a custom recovery. download (if you dont have one) from the xda threads, then enter bootloader (shut off phone, hold POWER + VOLDOWN) enter FASTBOOT, connect to PC and it should change to FASTBOOT USB
then
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery>.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> enter RECOVERY
then "install ZIP" in Aroma, deselect "stock recovery" so you don't need to flash it again.

No problem, TWRP you mentioned should work just fine. It's the same as installing a custom ROM. I havent used TWRP but it should say something like "install zip", then find the zip and flash away.
Hopefully, that will give you a chance to successfully run rumrunner; remember to read and follow the instructions to the letter!
Good luck and keep us posted (fingers crossed)

Well I installed the custom recovery, then flashed the stock rom 2.24.401.8 as you told me. Once I did that I ran rumrunner successfully gainning S-off.
Now I have to run the RUU but the one you suggested me is the "RUU M7 UL JB 50 HTC Europe 1.28.401.7 Radio 4A.13.3231.27 10.31.1131.05 Release 310878" but my radio is 4A.17.3250.14_10.39.1150.04L. Should I try to install it anyways? I've taken a look at the rest of RUUs and none fits my features...
btw every time I flash the stock version at the end it tells me that my phone doesnt appear to be rooted and if i want to install supersu, i always say no and after that my recovery always goes to stock, i guess it is normal, isnt it?

Go ahead and flash it, it will downgrade everything (now possible thanks to S-Off), and you will then receive the latest OTA package(s) to get to the most current version including radio.

Done!!!!! Sweet!! it worked just fine! Tampered disappeared and bootloader only shows unlocked. I have to relock it, havent I? That wouldnt mess up with my carrier right? It is just for locking the bootloader, isnt it?
Well many many thanks for your help, I couldnt have done it without it and I have learnt so much through the process Soon I'll be ready to re-root the phone again and try some custom roms hehe
Peace and greetings from Spain!

Hey! I have tried to lock it but after typing adb shell I get this "[email protected]:\ $" instead of the # that you are getting. I've tried to type "su" after that but it says that the command cannot be found. Also, when I type the code "echo -ne..." it says that I have permission denied so dunno what to do now...
Im asking in the lock/unlock threat but they just told me that its because im not rooted and that i have to install a recovery and install superuser in order to be able to introduce the code, dont really understand why I have to root it afer unrooted it :S

You should have LOCKED it before running the RUU, because that's what made you loose root.
So before proceeding, can you give me an update of your status:
bootloader: locked/relocked/unlocked?
tampered?
ROM?

[Q] HTC ONE bootloop, no recovery, wrong CID, S-ON

Hi Guys,
1 month ago I chaged my HTC ONE into Google Play Edition. Then Yesterday I wanted to get it to stock sense.
What I did:
*) restore CID to HTC__032 (do not know if it is right CID, network: P4 play for Poland)
*) restore stock via TWRP
*) downgrade bootloader from 1.54 to 1.44
*) locked (reveone)
*) S-On
Now, my phone got always bootoader with a msg: "Security Warrinig"
Canno go to recovery - phone always reboots. System doesn't start.
I'm assuming that to repair my phone the first thing I have to do is S-OFF. I cannot do this via HTCDEV unlock file, every time when i fire "fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin"
file is successfully sent and that's all. "Swipe - unlock" screen doesn't appear. As we know ADB PUSH won't work in fastboot mode.
How I can transfer reveone file into internal storage to get my phone s-Off again and corretley flash a bootloader (1.54)?
Regards.

so let me get this straight:
1- S-On
2- LOCKED
3- No functioning ROM
if yes, you're pretty much stuck
did you get a new unlocktoken from HTCdev or are you using the old one. try registering a new account with HTCdev and get a new unlock file.

yes, I have tried - no success.

At first, the HTC Dev Unlock does NOT give you S-Off. It just unlocks your bootloader. And why did you change your CID if you didnt know if it was the right one? Google will help you to find the right one.
In case this IS the right one, I dont think you need S-Off as you're able to flash a new Recovery without S-Off. Try HTC aio Tool for example or via adb/fastboot flash. If this worked you'll be able to flash a new firmware.
Good Luck

did you try with a new email account?

So you were s-off before then back to s-on. Or how you downgraded from 1.54 to 1.44 ? I am confused now
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

Thank's for all your responses.
So:
 @nkk71 - tried with new account - still no success.
 @Frask3r - as long as I'm not able to run anything except bootloader: adb commant won't work(no way to perform push), fastboot only works.
 @polariscon - I wanted to flash my googles' bootloader with the orginal one from HTC, so I flashed via fastboot.
I can confirm that CID is correct one HTC__032. I do not know if it will help.

You can flash with fastboot commands

Ok.. so to do it, I need: RUU 1.29.401.12 Radio 4A.18.32.63.15 for model PN0710000.
This software version I have installed on my HTC ONE. As far as I know I cannot flash it with any other RUU.
Am I correct?
Regards.

oh I just saw you downgraded to 1.44, try an RUU (windows exe) from here: http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/ruu-file-downloads/
which is compatible with your MID & CID (use fastboot getvar all, to determine MID & CID)

Hello.
I need help to fix my htc one.
I did delete everything on my internal sdcard. Cause i want to make it as new to give it to my girlfriend. But when i did that. Its stopped working. I've tried to use all in one kit by squabbi. But it won't work to change boot or anything. Maybe i did smt wrong.
When i turn on my htc one. Its stuck in boot. White screen with htc logo on it. I cant even turn it off again. I have to wait when the battery its empty. And then i can turn it on to fastboot. Before all that. I came into recovery and then its stands no OS on the phone.
But after i yried to fix it by myself then it will not be able to even touch the recovery. I push the screen,but nothing happend. I think i did it worse or smt. Pleas help if somebody can. It would be great.

Thanks nkk71. I will try this, but I'm not to sure if I can do it without S-OFF especialy when I have a higher firmware version installed (1.29.401.12). I will let you know as soon as I'm done.

if the ruu.exe doesnt work, then there's this: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu-zip...0-01_release_318486_signed_2_4_decrypted-zip/
flashable with s-on and locked using fastboot in RUU mode, let me know if you need the exact commands and remember the flash zip has to be done twice, one after another!!

After reading OP i think you have many things mixed up so plz clarify
What happens when you try to boot into recovery...if its stock recovery it takes some time for red triangle to appear.
Which "swipe-unlock" screen are you talking about in unlocking bootloader.
When using RUU zip try more than once sometimes it takes 2 - 3 tries to work

I think that my bootloader is corrupted...

But you can still boot into hboot so it might not be all lost
When was the last time you able to boot normally (after each steps you mentioned in OP)

I'm Sorry for answering so late. My phone just came back from "local" GSM repair center.
So what they done?
They destroyed my back cover and using JTAG changed cid to: HTC_02_2 and version-main to 1.00.000.00
and they told me that I'm not able to flash my phone with any current ROM version because I have to wait for
the latest one.
I have tried to update my phone with RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.1_Radio_4A.13.3227.06_10.27.1127.01_release_308001_signed_2_4.exe on my own.
I changed my cid in android-info.txt but after "signatures checking" step i received error msg no 131 (customer id)
Now I'm wondering, if I will procceed with below steps:
*) change cid to: 11111111 (using JTAG)
*) still s-on (i cannot change it - bootloop)
*) bootloader locked
are there any chances to make it works again?
Cheers
Robert

Can you unlock bootloader, flash custom recovery, root, and install a custom rom?
Then S-Off, and move to a HTC__001 based International HTC One RUU file.
What is your hboot version? or fastboot getvar all output?

[Q] Can't use my HTC phone, no system

Hey, I was stupid and missed up my phone. I wanted to update my phone, but because It was rooded I wasn't able to do it. So I decided to begin from start. So I downgraded my Hboot to 1.44 and also stupid to set s-on again. But then I could not install the stock rom 1.29.651.10. So I decided to try a custom rom. So I would be able to set s-off again. But non of them worked. I think that the old Hboot 1.44 is why the roms didn't work. But I can't change my Hboot before my device is s-off.
I'm able to use adb sideload and twrp recovery

If I remember right, the older s-off techniques like rumrunner should still work with that hboot. I'd look into those first.

I've have already tried rumrunner, but it didn't work for me. I was able to get Viberone 8 to work, but it was very slow. Tried to get s-off but did't work with the Viberone rom. So now i'm trying another one to see if it will allow me to get the phone s-off. But thx for your respond

While booted to fastbootusb open a cmd window (from your platform tools folder) and type:
Code:
fastboot getvar all
Then copy and paste the results here...make sure you remove your IMEI from the results.

Thx it worked for me. First I replaced the TWRP recovery with the stock recovery 1.29.651.10. After that I relocked my bootloader "fastboot oem lock" and the device rebooted. I used the 1.29.651.10 RUU exe. and it worked. So thank you, have a nice day
