Please help a potentially dead husband fix his wife's phone!! - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

Hey guys. I am in a pickle. I have an S-ON HTC Raider, Bell on stock Android 2.3.5. I flashed TWRP 2.4.4.0 and tried to flash CM 11 and it wouldnt boot porperly. I was told its because I needed to update to ICS bootloader first. So I relocked bootloater and downloaded Bell RUU.exe as well as the OTA.zip. I've tried both methods and they both dont work!
1. Flashed the OTA rom's boot.img in fastboot, then relocked bootloader then tried to flash the firmware via fastboot and it failed. (Later read you cant flash these types of things in fastboot, only stock recovery but I only have TWRP now)
2. Tried the more reliable RUU.exe method. Stuck at silver HTC screen, and the RUU is "sending" indefinetly. Stuck on sending, wont advance any further.
This is my wifes phone and I need to get it going ASAP. Can anyone please guide me? I will happily donate to anyone that can take the time to walk a noob through this. Thanks

Have you attempted to flash an older gingerbread rom? remember to flash the boot.img in fastboot. I only know of issues people have had with Bell and Rogers (on that note, you can try the rogers RUU).

Umm... I think somewhere in the forum there's a thread with the bootloaders as hboot zip files... They might work if the links aren't dead...
---------- Post added at 02:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:27 AM ----------
Your lucky I can't sleep...
Download the PH39IMG.ZIP from the bottom of this page... Either link
http://www.arykblog.com/2014/05/htc-vivid-recovery-and-eng-hboot.html
Put this file in the root directory of BOTH internal and external storage... Because I forget...
Then reboot to bootloader (power and vol -)
Then... HOPEFULLY... Watch magic...
Have TWRP 2.6.3.0 ready to flash and a ROM... PAC is current...
This should give you hboot 1.85.2525
Here's to hoping...

[Q] Help me unbrick my htc one please?

im a HTC one user. Currently on a formatted sd card. that is, no android rom or software. All I have right now on my phone is an unlocked bootloader 1.54
CWM Recovery Touch v6.0.3.6
I am familiar with pushing roms from mac through adb commands on the sd card. learnt that when i bricked it last time. this time, i cant understand the problem. Umm.. I updated my ARHD rom to 4.3 stock google one from 4.2.2 sense based roms. After that, i remember, going through several roor related issues. So i tried switching roms. i tried flashing various roms but i couldnt get any of em to work. i tried flashing roms after wiping cache and everything recommended, but every rom got stuck on reboot. except the nandroid backup. nandroid backup worked fine. so i tried formatting the sd card as well and flashing a rom after pushng it by adb commands. i think i have problems with my root access. i tried flashing cwm recovery all over again through fastboot, but it still boots up randomly. and im still stuck on the google splashup screen. it keeps rebooting and getting stuck on the splashup screen and doesnt get past that to the htc reboot screen. I dont know what to do. splash up screen doesnt let me access adb commands. and i think i have improper root access as whenever i try to reboot from cwm recovery, it warns me about the su binary and then gets stuck stuck in a loop again.
please help me guys?

If you are unlocked but still S-ON...use revone to make it S-OFF
Than:
1) hold power button until the phone force reboots and in the meantime press vol - button to get into bootloader
2) now go to fastboot and plug the phone to the pc
3) through command line "fastboot writecid 11111111"
4) reboot bootloader
5) now you have supercid, flash any RUU and start using again your HTC one
I think it should work, sorry for my bad english

i know that with supercid you can flash any RUU beacuse it bypasses the normal country control during the istallation of the program...
now, i don't know if you cant flash anything with the 1.54 hboot, but i dont think so. according to me, you can try to flash and in the worst case the istallation wont start...but obviously is your phone and your decisone, just as it is your responsability

Since you're S-Off and SuperCID you can flash any RUU, so just go ahead and you won't loose S-Off either.
The 1.54 restrictions only apply if you're not S-Off, because S-On won't allow you to downgrade. Since you're S-Off it will allow the RUU downgrade.

Being s-off means you can flash anything, even stuff not for this phone. So be careful.

[Q] HTC One semi bricked!! i think help

Hi All,
Help required with my HTC One 801n. I have read and search numourse posts but still cant load a ROM or anything back onto it
The phone details
M7 UL
Hboot 1.54
Radio 4A.17.3250.14
CID HTC_001
S ON
The phone was unlocked and rooted shortly after I bought it in July. I was using a Google edition Revolution HD 22 Rom, but I decided to try a CM10.2 ROM and this is where it all started to go wrong. I downloaded the CM Rom and started to flash it on my phone but I got a boot loop with a different screen repeating over the recovery screen so I tried to wipe it and reflash but in doing so I deleted everything. At that time I could get into the recovery screen where it said there wasn’t a ROM installed, so I tried flashing the ROM again but this time I can only get into the boot loader and Fastboot, with no option into recovery.
Things I have tried
unlocked In fastboot tried flashing various ROMs but at the end it says FAILED: (remote:not allowed
ROMs i have tried are the latest from HTC dev web site PN07IMG_M7_UL_JB43_SENSE50_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_3.22.1540.1 & CM10.2 roms and bootimg files but just get the Failed message at the end.
I have tried locking the boot loader and trying a RUU file but the same thing with failed messages at the end or wrong signature.
Is there something pretty basic I am missing because the fastboot cmds seem to work just not for flashing.
Aslo tried the adb side load but it doesn’t list my device and the cmd don’t work, they work fine in fastboot.
Any help would be appreciated before it ends up in bits!!
The cid on the phone and the ruu has to be the same.

Based on your CID you got the incorrect RUU. You should have gotten this one: RUU_m7_ul_k44_sense55_mr_htc_europe_4-19-401-9_r_radio_4a-23-3263-28_10-38r-1157-04l_release_353069_signed_2-1-exe Going forward once you get back up, you should think of getting S-OFF. It would give you more flexibility with ROM etc. But you also have to be more carefull.
Also, to run the RUU your bootloader must be locked/relocked since you are S-ON.

that wont work as he is s-on, his HBOOT is 1.54 and that RUU has HBOOT 1.56, too many steps up, it will fail with image error.
you need to use this: http://www.htc1guru.com/2013/10/guru-reset-3-62-401-1-stock-rom/
or this one is probably better for you which is probably the same version you had on the phone to start with: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-8-zip/
push it to your internal storage and flash like a custom rom, select wipe data, install stock recovery and install stock radio when prompted, you should get OTAs after that.

phone wont boot

im not really sure what happened...
i was trying to root then s-off today. i got htcdev.com unlocked, was able to flash custom recovery (philz) and flash superuser. when i tried to s-off (firewater) i got the whelp this sucks error (im still not really sure why or what that means)
i tried to then flash a custom rom, and now it wont boot past the htc flash screen with the red text ( this may be because i didnt flash firmware with the rom i tried to install?)
i have tried to flash firmware, and run a ruu and nothing is doing anything...
please please please someone help
What firmware version do you currently have installed? What ROM were you trying to flash?
Take a look at this thread below for info on how to flash the latest RUU. If you have a HK version you'll need the HK RUU. After you run the RUU you'll need to reroot your phone. You'll also need to use the SunShine exploit to gain S-off (the "whelp" message means Firewater won't work on your device). I also recommend Captain Throwback's TWRP 2.8.0.0. recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2880328
im not sure which of these are the firmware...
hboot - 3.16.0.0000
radio - 1.05.20.0321_2
os - 1.54.654.9
Firmware is your radio version. Use the RUU from the link below. Follow the instructions for the manual system update. You'll need to relock your bootloader beforehand using the command "fastboot oem lock" while connected via Fastboot USB mode.

ohh i forgot about having to relock for ruu
trying that now
I downloaded the ruu, but when I run it it can't find my phone... I think it wants me to be booted into the ROM but I can't boot the only thing I can access is the bootloader

RUU's are run from the bootloader...make sure it says fastbootusb when connected to your PC.
it did say that
Make sure you have HTC Sync installed on your computer.
I have that installed too... I got it to boot, ended up flashing different recovery then a different rom and that worked... Never got the ruu to work tho... Anyway, thanks for your help

Can't OTA Update Relocked Phone

Today I unrooted my phone and relocked it so I could update my phone to 4.4.3 but every time I try to update it the phone will boot into fastboot mode and it reads "security warning" under where it says "Relocked". It does that every time I want to go to recovery.

You need a stock rom and stock recovery for the OTA to work.
I'm using both a stock rom and a stock recovery.
Why are you trying to boot into recovery if you have the stock recovery installed?

So when you select recovery mode while in the bootloader what happens?

The screen will read "Entering Recovery" for 1 second then goes into fastboot mode.
Might want to try installing the stock Android system recovery again (doesn't sound like you have a recovery installed at this point). Sounds like that's what your issue is. You can also use a RUU to get back to stock and then take the OTA update.
To run a RUU, would I need to unlock my bootloader again?

Well, I tried to run RUU and FUU and both of them failed. I can't get passed step 1. Can I install a custom recovery and try again?
Make sure the firmware version of the RUU matches what you have installed. If you need a reference hit the second link in my sig and scroll down to the section regarding Hboot versions.

I just got my sprint m8 hk edition 2 days ago, after which I htcdev unlocked, rooted, s-off'd(tried firewater got whelped) used sunshine successfully, flashed captain throwbacks latest twrp, then proceeded to debloat. After I got the notification for the 1.54.654.13 update I fastboot flashed back to stock hk recovery 1.54.654.9, and got that ota installed and only had to reroot was still s-off and unlocked. Fastboot flashed cap's twrp again, then I got the ota update for 1.54.654.15(didn't realize this thing needed so many updates, I now know I still have 2 or 3 more to go) So I flashed back to stock hk 1.54.654.13 recovery, tried installing 1.54.654.15 and it reboots and tries to install it makes it to about 25% then the pic of the phone gets a red triangle and I have to hold pwr and volume up to reboot. I've redownloaded and reflashed the stock hk 1.54.654.13 recovery multiple times as well as deleting the ota update and redownloading it 3 times to no avail same result every time. Soooo, my question is do I even need to update step by step? Or should I just download the latest firmware 2.16.654.4 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173 and install thru my pc. If so, I believe I need to relock my bootloader then ruu to 2.16.654.4. And last question, do I lose s-off by ruu'ing?

You do not lose S-OFF ever. Only way to go back to S-ON is by doing is manually.
I believe it was the first or second OTA but you had to be completely on the stock ROM (the OTA looked for certain .apks in folders and if you didn't have them [ie. you debloated] you can't OTA).
Since you're S-OFF just go flash the latest firmware (no need to relock and RUU).

You can get the firmware zip that doesn't have the new recovery so you don't have to reinstall recovery again either. If you don't have the H/K version it is this one you should download from OMJ's thread:

If you have the H/K version download:

2.16.651.4 Modified Firmware w/ modified hboot (no red text)....removed boot & recovery (fastboot flashable): [url]http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567714842[/url] credit to @nfinitefx45 for the edited hboot, thx!
If you have the H/K version download:
Code:

i did fastboot rebootRUU then fastboot flash zip firmware.zip it ran thru and after I rebooted my wifi won't turn on and my software version is still the same and my sdcard is borked too heeeeeeeellllllppppp
Not sure what to tell you about your Wi-Fi or SD card issue. Are you using a custom kernel? As far as the software version goes, that won't change by updating your firmware. That will only change by flashing a custom ROM. Software & firmware are not the same.

[Q] Stuck on boot with Insert Coin 7.0.7 (unlocked bootloader + twrp + s-on)

HTC Butterfly S (901s) (HTC_622)
Unlocked bootloader S-ON
Hboot 1.57.000
TWRP - 2.8.5.0
Hello. Would somebody be so kind to help me with my case? I've read a lot of topics and googled even more, but still no luck :crying:
I had unlocked my bootloader and made a full wipe of everything I could). Installed [UNOFFICIAL][RECOVERY] TeamWin Recovery Project 2.8.5.0, flashed InsertCoin 7.0.7 for Butterfly S from their official site via aroma and after successful it stucked on boot or just boots into bootloader. I've tried fastboot erase recovery (failed "not permitted"), fastboot erase cache, flashing boot image one more time, installing [5.0.2] GP's Kernel v1.2.5 and still nothing.
While trying everything I can, I managed to wipe stock rom completly, so now I cant boot to use adb, I can operate only through fastboot.
I really looking forward to any advice from the community((
May be I am using a wrong recovery or I need to flash another HBOOT? Or I even do not know...
If S-ON, need to flash boot.img again.
You can find it in the zip file.
Try it.

maybe a bad download of the rom? did you try to download it again?
Solved!
So, I managed to solve this. May be someone could use my steps to solve similar problem.
After I had failed to boot IC 7.0.7 I decided to try to S-OFF my device and tried it with rumrunner method, but it failed on 8th bottle, nevertheless I've installed Falter kernel because RR method had a conflict with my stock kernel. After that I tried to install IC 7.0.7 again and installed boot from the zip through TWRP, not from adb and it finally booted.
After that I've installed new 1.25 kernel and now everything works flawless.
Thanks everybody, who tried to help me! + karma))
