[Q] Signature failed in restore recovery

hi, i had the frf91 vodafone version on my nexus one. i thougth to install the frg83d posted here with rom manager. Everything went fine but the installation didn't restore the recovery and if i try to flash it with fastboot:
C:\android\tools>fastboot devices
HT05EP800252 fastboot
C:\android\tools>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (2294 KB)... OKAY [ 0.344s]
writing 'recovery'... INFOsignature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 0.734s
am i doing something wrong?
is it because i'm rooted? i rooted my N1 without unlocking the bootloader.
Thanks

I dont think you can use fastboot to flash the recovery image without unlocking, you need to install the appropriate binary (/system/bin/flash_image) and call it from a shell on your phone (using a desktop is ok)
see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=687280

I would also say you lost root when updating your ROM. Also, you can't fastboot flash unofficial files without unlocking the bootloader.
Root, and flash through adb or ROM Manager, etc

[Q] Not able to flash recovery.img after S-OFF and firmware upgrade

Hi,
I S-OFF'ed my HTC One, and upgraded the firmware!! Now i have a problem flashing the recovery.
When I'm trying to flash the recovery I'm only getting:
c:\Android>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (7422 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.188s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 1.223s
Any idea of why its giving me remote: not allowed?

Have you tried to change the cable or the usb port?
However, all the other command will work?

Hehe never mind, it was a total brainfreeze, when i used revone, i also locked the bootloader again so unlocking it again kinda helped hehe
Thanks for the reply anyways

[Q] Need help for bricked Razr i / firmware links

Hello Forum,
as a newbie in Razr i I tried today to unblock my Bootloader and of course made an error during this
I downloaded the file "RAZRi_Root_Linux.zip" from user "mattlgrof".
Unpacked it and run the file "Root.sh".... yes I know. I have read the HowTo, but ...I don't know what I thought!?
And of course the shell said reboot and the phone stuck on the red Motorola logo
Looking into the file, I saw that the last command executed was:
"sudo $fastboot flash boot ./files/razr_i_boot_insecured.img"
And the output was:
"< waiting for device >
sending 'boot' (11264 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.657s]
writing 'boot'...
FAILED (remote: Preflash validation failed)
finished. total time: 2.021s
rebooting...
finished. total time: 0.240s
Phone is rebooting please dont touch anything."
As I have read until know I could restore the phone by installing a astock firmware via RSD, right?
But in the last 5! hours I couldn't find a valid link for a firmware download.
So my question/request are:
- Can I solve this by installing a stock ROM via RSD?
- Can someone provide me an link to a firmware download?
The specs of my phone:
- European ( germany), unbranded
- OTA update to JB 4.1.2
- previously rooted with windows using a "android trick", I don't exactl remember how
If you need more information, please ask.
Thank you in advance, and have a nice day.
Kind regards.
giderBey

Since you are German, you can follow this how-to: http://www.android-hilfe.de/anleitu...owto-razr-i-mit-rsd-lite-flashen-windows.html
It also includes mirrors to the firmware
Once you are back to stock, you can use this root method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541398 and no bootloader unlock is needed.

[Q] C6903 unable to flash images using fastboot

Dear all,
I want to update my C6903 to Anndroid Lollipop by flashing AOSP images after building them by following the instructions from Sony. But when I tried to flash them, below error occurred.
----------------------------
fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (8866 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.482s]
writing 'boot'...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

I used flashtool(0.9.18.5) and EasyRootTool(v12.3) to flash the firmware(C6903_14.4.A.0.108_HK.ftf) and root the system, and used that flashtool to relock the bootloader.
When I tried to unlock the bootloader again, below errors occurred.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Check drivers then flash stock firmware again then check your bootloader status in service menu if unlocking is allowed use fastboot commands...

I have an HTC Desire C
It was not able to boot, got stuck at the boot screen.
