[Q] Incredible S. cannot update or do hard reset.

Hi guys. Im really having a problem with my phone now. I can't update my phone or do a hard reset as I will be directly brought to the fastboot menu with a security warning on the top. When i go back to the hboot menu and try to do recovery or factory reset, the same thing happens.
I really want to know what is going on and how do I solve this problem..

SEARCH FUNCTION! We have hundreds of threads, guides and tuts about it. I say it again, SEARCH FUNCTION.

Don't be angry... If you entered recovery and got security warning, try to flash the recovery again.

Hey, thanks for the advice. but what recovery should I flash again ?

Try the Clockworkmod first. If it is bootable, flash a rom and install 4EXTrecovery via 4EXT Updater.

Did you lock the bootloader or something? Try mentioning the steps leading to your situation, rather than just the end result. We shouldn't have to be playing guessing games especially when you're coming to us asking for help.

Alright guys. Im so sorry. I've actually managed to unlock the bootloader again, and flashed CWM. As gingerbread 2.3.5 was just pushed out to my country several days ago. I've brought my phone to the HTC service centre today. and they are also unable to run the RUU update. So they took in my phone for servicing and they will update my phone when the repair is done. Thanks for your help guys.. still needs to be sent in though.. 4th time im sending this phone in already...

What's version of ROM? Root? S-off?
Need more details...

If you were as quick replying to your thread as you were in taking the phone to HTC we could have got you fixed up. You needed stock recovery flashed, I believe. Hope HTC don't charge you for this "repair".

Hey, actually i havent sent my phone for the repair yet. any links for the stock recovery file ?

Hey guys. I've read that, installing the same version of RUU will get everything back to stock, including the recovery, but im on version 2.30.707.1 , and the closest file available for download is 2.30.405.1 , So am I able to run 2.30.405.1 's RUU to get everything back to stock ?
My radio version is 3805.09.03.27_M

That should work, but you may need to use a goldcard.

Guys! Everything is okay now!! I've unlocked my bootloader again to flash a stock recovery, locked my bootloader and did the OTA update. Everything is well now! Thanks for all the solutions!!

[Q] Install AT&T OTA Update with unlocked bootloader?

So I'm wanting to install the OTA ICS update but it fails and I get the little red exclamation point when I try.. I am assuming this is because my bootloader is unlocked? I've been trying to find a way to install it but the only one I found was one requiring S-OFF which I don't have..
So basically my question is can I install ICS on my rooted unlocked bootloader?
If absolutely necessary I can always lock it, install, then re unlock it but that's such a pain.. AT&T gets on my nerves sometimes..

I am almost positive that you have to do the re-lock process unless somehow they found another way. You should probably read around next time. Most likely, someone has already asked your question.

I've read quite a few threads but haven't been able to find anything.. and like I said, I did find one but it requires S-OFF and the juniper thing, or whatever to lazy to look up the name right now lol, is not released yet.. and I haven't been able to find another way to get S-OFF..

If you want ics that bad you have to do it like every one else here...there is no reason to whine cause your to lazy to relock the bootloader ..it take all of about three mins for me to relock mine ... and about 20 min to do the whole process...you don't need s off to get ics if your using the vivid or velocity. there's no place for lazy people here so please just do it like ever one else or do with out

I'm fully aware you don't NEED S-OFF to get ICS its the only way I have found to do it with an unlocked bootloader if you even bothered to read my post. And if your going to be rude and unhelpful stay out of my thread, people like you are why forums loose members. I simply asked a question I never said I was lazy and wouldn't do it I was simply looking for an easier alternative.

The S-OFF is obviously a mistake, because if it was S-OFF then you wouldn't have to do fastboot oem lock.
Yes, you have to relock the bootloader. Make sure you kept your unlock_code.bin or else you might not be able to unlock the bootloader again.
To be extra safe you should flash stock recovery before you do anything.

Quick question going along with this, it may be stupid, I just wanted to make sure before I try anything: I'm currently on RumRaider and I want to switch to ICS. If I were to revert to stock and relock and then do the OTA update to ICS from AT&T, can I still get root with the same zergrush application or whatever that I used before?

Your best bet is to relock the boot loader then run the ruu for the vivid then re unlock and do your flashes

Hmm well OTA still kept failing for me, even after relocking the bootloader.. I ended up having to download the RUU from HTC Support and install it through my computer using HTC Sync.. which kinda sucked but it still at least installed ICS..

There are plenty of options out there. Since you now have an updated HBOOT, flash a recovery image and CWM a rooted stock ROM.

Thanks for the help guys. I relocked the bootloader and ran the RUU, then did the OTA. After that I used the noob proof tool thing in the dev forums and installed the WCX recovery and then rooted with the same tool as well. Currently typing on it, and loving it!

Nice! Wish I found that earlier, right now I am probably going to use WhildChilds ROM since he has put so much into it and over clocked the kernel..

[SOLVED]Stuck on HTC screen or boot animation: RUU not helping

EDIT: SOLVED BY NAND RESTORE
This happened after an attempt to flash darkraider on top of att ICS RUU. Phone got stuck at boot animation for ICS roms and HTC screen for GB roms. Tried reverting using RUUs (CINGULAR GB and ATT ICS) but it doesn't help.
Also tried flashing boot.img from the customized ROMs without success.
It was a Canadian Rogers Raider with S-OFF and unlocked bootloader. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,Stuck boot anim。。。 It happened to me too
And I found the reason。Because of that TOUCH RECOVERY。
So,I tried to use RUU to restore。But it doesn't work。I flashed AT&T RUU,then swith to Australian RUU again and again。
Finally, I knew。This couldn't work!
Then I tried to change the CID。change super CID 11111111 to any CID you figure out。Like 987654321
Then It works!! But My Velocity can not use the SuperCID anymore。
and in my opinion, I think it's caused by TOUCH RECOVERY

Interesting cuz I was using the twrp touch recovery to flash darkraider on top if at&t ics ruu.
I didn't change cid. After a nand restore now everything works fine.
Funny thing is the backup was done in twrp so I used that to restore then used the at&t ics ruu t. After that I installed wcxrecovery and darkraider. I was indeed suspecting somethingwrong with the touch recoverycuz that vs wcx is the only difference from the guide.

I saw this thread just now. I own a HTC Velocity 4G. The Aussie version of the vivid and the same thing happened to me but the problem for me is that i am not S-OFF. When i try to use the RUU i get error 140 bootloader error. I don't understand the problem could one of you guys help me out. Walk me through what i should do.
Many thanks

I don't think you're going to be able to use an ruu to solve your problem because your rom version is higher than the ruu, but since you're s-on, when you flash a rom, do you flash the boot.img before in fastboot because some roms boot without the boot.img flashed, but others won't. If that doesn't work you'll have to s-off because your phone won't let the ruu work for a downgrade.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Just in cases you decide not to revert to stock

I'm a little wiser now and I'm sure I'll have to go s off to get any further.
Thanks for helping.

[Q] HTC One M7 EE/T-Mobile/Orange UK Semi Bricked

All,
I am pulling my hair out, I decided to root my phone today so I could delete the default APN's, I have tried CWM and also TWRP.
All was fine, as soon as I installed Busybox something went horribly wrong, my phone will not boot up and just displays the "HTC Logo" I can get to the boot menu and boot to either CWM or TWRP. However there is nothing I can do within there, I cannot find a RUU for my model (CID is Orange) I have found a nandroid backup but CWM/TWRP refuses to see it via OTG and I have tried lots of USB Sticks.
I really do not know what to do next, I cannot turn S-OFF as HBOOT is 1.54
What can I do, I have read thread after thread.
Is there a default recovery.img or one for my carrier as I cannot find it.
Many thanks,
Dale

Managed to restore a nandroid, but I have no touch screen!
Tried clearing cache etc, have currently got a mouse plugged in to it to control it, there is an OTA available so going to try that.

Don't try it with a custom recovery. You'll need to relock your bootloader too.
No touchscreen is a firmware issue. The nandroid you restored will be an old one not compatible with the latest firmware..

That's what I have done for now, I sideloaded a stock Sense ROM which came with a stock recovery.img, guess I have to wait for a S-OFF for 1.54 if it ever happens.

Nooby needs help with reseting HTC one to stock

Hi guys, stupid as I am, i tried to root my HTC one, and failed. Somehow I could not install the root and everything just got messed up. I posted it in the sprint HTC one section, although mine is bought in Norway.
Alright, my problem is that there has not been released a RUU for my version, I belive. And then I have no idea how to do it. I would highly appreciate any help I can get. I have no idea how often I'll be checking in on this forum, but you can contact me on skype if you're willing to help !
although I'll be following this thread, so any responses would be read.
Skype: Swatchi10
Thanks !

You better post this in the M7 thread. I don't know how much you messed up, maybe the ruu is not necessary, but as a last resource, taking for granted that your phone is a GSM model you can get s-off than change your CID and flash an unlocked or developer edition ruu.

Than I have an idea of what might have happened. Your TWRP version was outdated, and if you were on 4.3 or 4.4 your touch won't wotk in recovery. Now you just need to find the latest version and flash it

We can talk here. It's a pretty simple procedure. Copy this file to your ADB folder(the one you used to unlock your bootloader) http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
Make sure fastboot is unchecked in power options and turn phone completely off
Boot into bootloader than Fastboot
From fastboot.
Than open command prompt in this folder and type:
"fastboot erase cache"
From fastboot. Use command "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img"
