HTC Incredible S stuck in "H-Boot" - HTC Incredible S

For around 6 months now, my device is stuck in H Boot. Woke up one morning and when I turned on the phone it wouldn't start. I've tried several searches to rectify the issue but none proved successful.
I was wondering if anyone here had a similar issue and passed it and would like to give me some assistance. It'll be greatly appreciated.

Thats all I can see.
Also, Fastboot, Bootloader etc are also on that same page.

I think, you need to go fastboot, flash a recovery, then install custom ROM.

So Google "pg32img.zip" and lemmie guess, put it on the SD card and start the phone?
Ok

Yep, it can be recovery or RUU

Any direct links?

ICS upgrade - boot loop - can't fix - bricked?

I have searched the forums, and I can not find the answer to my specific situation. Please forgive me if it is there somewhere. The story…….
- last working ROM was VIVO ICS official, RUU installed. (RUU_VIVO_ICS_35_S_HTC_WWE_4.10.405.1_Radio_20.74.30.0833U_3831.18.00.11_M_release_266013_signed.exe). HBOOT was changed to 2.02 S-ON, bootloader locked. I unlocked via HTCdev. Before this I had IceColdSandwich 8.1.1, ENG Hboot S-OFF. I had originally used the GB downgrade ROM to S-OFF, and restored IceCold backup after this.
- I wanted to be S-OFF again, and so tried installing this zip using CWM Recovery, following the advice of tpbklake:
vivo_signed_WWE_4.10.405.1_ICS_SENSE36_5.zip Version 1.1
(from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756500&page=1)​
- now boot loop. I tried reinstalling other ROMs which I have successfully installed in the past (GB downgrade, stock ICS), and also restore various backups, but all result in boot loop (stuck on white HTC screen). Each time I would use CWM Recovery to clear dalvik, cache etc.
- I have now followed 'fix' instructions in that same thread, ie. :
1. Download the file lib.zip from here: http://bit.ly/PwK4BH
2. Unzip the lib.img and place it on your PC where you have fastboot.exe installed.
3. Boot into FASTBOOT USB mode and then enter the following command:
fastboot flash lib lib.img
4. Download the file format_lib_update.zip from here: http://bit.ly/RIpEUL
5. Copy it to your SD card.
6. Boot into recovery and then install format_lib_update.zip
7. While in recovery format the SYSTEM partition.
8. Then reinstall vivo_signed_WWE_4.10.405.1_ICS_SENSE36_5.zip​
But at step 3 I get the following:
C:\adb>fastboot flash lib lib.img
sending 'lib' (155648 KB)...
OKAY [ 27.553s]

Please help! I’m close to considering myself properly bricked, and using that as an excuse to go and buy a OneX.

OK, so what is the state of your HBOOT? Are you still HBOOT 2.02.0002 UNLOCKED?
When you are using the an unlocked HTC HBOOT and you flash a custom ROM in CWM, you then manually have to extract the boot.img file from that ROM's zip file and flash it manually in FASTBOOT USB mode. If you don't do that, you will get a boot loop.
What you need to do if you can still get into CWM and the bootloader is still UNLOCKED is reflash that ROM again and then flash the boot.img file in FASTBOOT mode and you should be ok.

Well then you can always relock the bootloader and then run the 4.10.405.1 RUU like you did originally. Then you can unlock the bootloader since you already have the unlock_code.bin file.

Once you get back to that point, unlock the bootloader, install ClockworkMod and then flash su-3.0.7-efghi.zip to root the official ROM. Then you should be able to rerun the downgrade process to get back to S-OFF.

Thanks very much. The stock ICS RUU has now installed successfully. I guess when I originally tried to reinstall it, I had left out the 'RELOCK' step, which is why it failed.
So now I am back to the start (stock ICS + HBOOT 2.02 S-ON), and want to get S-OFF and install your ROM zip. ,What I originally intended to do to get S-OFF was:
1) Unlock the bootloader, flash CWM Recovery, flash SU
2) Run downgrade GB RUU
3) S-off with Revolutionary
4) Install Blackrose HBOOT
5) Install your vivo_signed_WWE_4.10.405.1_ICS_SENSE36_5.zip
But step 2) failed with an unknown error. (I then tried to install your zip, and the rest is the sad history.....).
So what caused step 2 to fail? Did I need to relock the bootloader first?
Many thanks for your help, tpbklake

What is the status of your bootloader? Is it locked, unlocked or relocked? If it is locked you may have to answer n to is the phone rooted to give temp root. If not on page 76 of this post there is the same issue.

And fyi it will not change the h boot version, only the main ver which is reported at the end of the script.

One more thing, I would try flashing another ROM, i came from Niks Sense 4a rom, and the script worked with no issues.
Remember you will need to manually flash the boot.img of the rom as you are S-ON.

Open a command window and then type in the command:
adb shell
If you get a # prompt then your ROM is rooted correctly and the script should run. If it doesn't then the ROM isn't properly rooted and the script will fail.

[Q] can you recover data after rooting?

hi newbie here, i decided to root my phone but forgot to backup my data (phone numbers, photos etc) can you recover these or are they long gone?

If you only want root then unlock boot loader.

You can either do it via my tool or the others or do it manual by installing goo.im and let that flash recovery. Then find superuser as a flash able zip from xda and flash it.

i have ran ETv3. xl multitool 2.1. both give me a error saying there is more than one device and emulator. does this mean there is a software issue on my phone or certain usb plugged into my pc? i read somewhere i have to uninstall htc sync. do i reinstall this?

If i remeber correctly goo.im require s off. When using computer, use a USB 2.0 port and correct drivers installed and if still same issue remove what is attached to USB but keep keyboard and mouse. Also try not to use a USB port in from of the computer but use the port from the main board directly in the back and use no USB hubs.

ok so i unplugged everything and stuck it in a usb port in the back. i somehow got the cwm to run. however it wont find the super su file even when i put it into the root of the phone. ricky i tried your app. it keeps saying more than one emulator running and device. phone is still s-on

this is a bad experience, better to backup everything by the Go Backup and copy it to PC before root.

I forgot to mention, I have tried to use fastboot boot (image), and it freezes, no matter which recovery image I try. I have tried twrp, and clockwork so far.
Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Make sure you are getting the newest img file from twrp site. Make sure it's the Sprint ver.

Double checked, it is the latest file, and I also verified it is for Sprint. Thought the same thing.
I assume it used to work? I see you are s-off? I don't see what could be going on. You can always do a full ruu reboot and start over but it will wipe your phone.
I just saw you did a Fastboot boot img. Not sure what that could have done. Boot.img is your kernel. When your phone boots , does it work?

The phone it self, does work. Boots fine. My problem, is I cant get root anymore. It worked until I went back to factory on everything, so I could get the updates. Even recovery worked when I got that back to stock. I took the Ota updates, no I cant get into recovery, so I can re root it.
Tried to go back to stock like i did before, same issue on 4.22 now. followed same procedures for re lock, un lock bootloader, both times, and this time it wont load anything into recovery.
Go to settings, power when phone is booted. Make sure fastboot is not selected.

So after 2 days, it looks like I got this working.
Not sure why this fix made a difference, however it worked, for me.
I ended up having to flash an older recovery twrp image of 2.5.0.0 first. That atleast allowed me to boot into recovery, finally. Problem was, nothing on the touchscreen would work.
I rebooted the device back into the bootloader, then installed twrp 2.6.3.0
That worked great!

From recovery type
adb push ROMname.zip /sdcard/
