HTC Desire 510 - Problem overwriting memory block - HTC Desire 510

Hi Guys,
Step 1.
I've dumped /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 which is called "Board info"from my HTC onto my computer and opened it with Hex editor.
Step 2.
This file contained some data and CID followed by IMEI. I've edited the CID to 11111111 HOPING that I'll get a superCID. I've overwritten the existing /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 file with my modified file. Operation succesfull and no problems shown by ADB.
Step 3.
I verified if I've done Step 2 correctly by repeating Step 1 and surprisingly the /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 doesn't seem to be overwritten which makes me really sad and I'd really appreciate if someone would be so kind enough to help me by answering why are my changes not taking effect ?
P.S. I've had the whole /dev partition remounted to be read/write as well as that to be extra sure I've changed permissions to 777 for /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 but I'm stuck at step 3, the only answers that come to me are that either I'm doing something wrong or the phone doesn't allow me to overwrite mem blocks.

It doesn't allow you if you're not s-off.

Thanks for your answer, I wasn't aware of that. You probably know the next question though - How do I get S-OFF ? I've tried an app called *SunShine* but I've had no success with it because it threw an error saying that I need to have a different ROM for the app to work. Ironically the reason I want superCID is to get a different ROM onto my phone ...

Sunshine does work 100% I can vouch for it. You simply need to go back to complete stock by using an RUU once your phone is completely stock including the stock recovery you can either ask me here for help with it or find @jcase over on his website theroot.ninja and I'm sure he will be more than happy to assist you with it... One other thing though if you're using a 64 bit phone it's not going to work with the sunshine app.

I have stock RUU downloaded and waiting but I can't install it because it's CID doesn't match with my phone CID. That's why I want superCID and that's what I meant when I said I want to get a "different ROM on my phone" , I should have made myself clearer in the last post. I'm currently running CynanogenMod 12.
So far I've tried the GoldCard maneuver and dumping memory block followed by hex editing and re-dumping it onto my phone (hence this thread) as well as the above mentioned SunShine app.
It feels like I'm drastically running out of options here, do you have any other advice ?

You really don't even need to be going through any of that crap if all you want is to use another rom... All you need to do is get an unlock code from HTC by giving them the token from your phone then you flash the unlock_code.bin and then flash a recovery of your choice I use twrp 3.0 at the moment because it's the newest one and make sure it's specifically for the HTC Desire 510 or it won't work after you flash the recovery you make a backup of your system before doing anything else so you have something to fall back on just in case and then you download the rom you want to either the sd card in the phone or to a computer and flash it and voila new rom... I suggest you search how to unlock the HTC Desire 510 bootloader and then search for how to root the HTC Desire 510 and after you read the step by step instructions you'll be able to get the rom on your phone... You'll need to install minimal adb and fastboot to c: drive to flash anything at all so download that too.

I've got it all done otherwise I wouldn't be running CynanogenMod 12 which I mentioned above. The thing is I don't have the backup I made for my original ROM. After an extensive research I've found a stock ROM which is suitable for my phone but it is not in the form of an image or zip file. It's a .exe Rom Update Utility (RUU) hence I'm dealing with all the stuff I've outlined in my previous post and looking for more help.

So I'm guessing you're using the CM12.1 that patrik made because the other one doesn't really work correctly and that leads me to believe your phone is a 64 bit then correct? What phone carrier are you using? I need a name.

Yes, Precisely CM 12.1-20151110-UNOFFICIAL-a11ul by patrik. Yes, my phone is 64 bit indeed. As for the carrier I've bought my phone unlocked so I don't know the original carrier, however, after investigating into my CID which is HTC__052 it turns out that Tesco is my carrier BUT I was using my phone with Vodafone UK the entire time and that's the RUU that I was trying to flash onto my phone with no success so far...

Because the Vodafone' CID isn't HTC__052 so you'll need to flash the Tesco one and you really don't have much of a choice at this point because there's no s-off for the HTC Desire 510 64bit and you unfortunately cannot change your CID without being s-off so your best bet to get stock back is to use Tesco if there's even one available.

I'm not sure which one you downloaded since it's showing me a whole list of them. If you find that the files are corrupted that's why they won't work.. in any case, do you have the unlock_code.bin from HTC? Save it forever.
Download this and place it in the backup folder on your sd card and then boot into recovery and flash it...

Are you sure? Did you try to boot it? Some people even have to extract the boot.img and flash it after the installation process finishes. What recovery are you using? Did you do a wipe on the partitions before flashing?

Yes I booted it and prior to writing my previous post I opened up the fastboot and tried fastboot flash of boot.img that I've extracted from that archive, the phone rebooted and that's about it, no changes made.

[Q] Rooting Incredible S with Unrevoked 3

Hi all,
I am newbie in this foruma nd new in Android. I am going to get the Incredible S later this week. I would like to try to root the Incredible S. I read some of the treads, but I am a bit confuse here, hope someone can help me out. Here are my questions.
1) Can I root my phone with Unrevoked3 ? If so can I use the S-On tools to put it back to s-on for warranty ?
2) Before I do the root, I would like to backup my Rom. All I need to do is go to Hboot and choose backup. It will save my rom image right? If any bad thing happen, I can S-On than put it back my rom and everything will back to the factory setting ?
3)How would I know if my phone been rooted? I saw a thread said if there is an Icon (superuser) in the menu it means I am rooted?
I know these are stupid questions, hope someone can help me out in here.
Thanks in advance

1. No, Unrevoked3 does not work on the Incredible S. You need to use AlphaRev/Unrevoked Revolutionary (http://revolutionary.io/)
2. You need to have a custom recovery in place such as ClockworkMod to backup image of your ROM. Revolutionary has an option to install ClockworkMod during it's procedure. In order to restore the phone to factory settings, you need to make sure you have a RUU (Rom Update Utility) that matches your phone's version.
3. After you install ClockworkMod, you will need to manually root and add superuser to your phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122694
Thank you very much for the reply. I will definately giong to give it a try. Another question here, after I applied Revolutionary and the phone will become S-off. And I want to put back the factory image back, will the phone switch back to S-ON ?? From other threads, I think it will void the warranty if the phone is S-ON
Thank you very much
You can put your phone back to S-ON yes. Make sure you haven't updated your phone to 2.30.405.1 or you can't root or S-OFF your device.
Great thanks. So here is my steps for turn the IncS to S-Off and backup right ?
First I will have to use Revolutionary to turn the S-OFF
than I will use ClockworkMOd to backup my factory ROM (just in case i need to turn it back to S-ON and factory setting for warranty)
Once I am S-OFF i will be able to use one of the image for Root
Thank you very much for all the helps guys. I will give it a try and see how it goes.

You have to flash RUU according to your IS version. It does full restore your device to factory state. So yes it includes S-on and Htc official Rom so it would be just like when it came out of the box.
Edit: What's your software number? You may check at Settings / About phone. You need that to flash properly RUU to your device.

Hi thiagofbrito, thanks for the reply. Sorry I don't have my INcS yet, still waiting for it, but I will check the software #.
By the way , if I used clockworkmod. I can backup my ROM right? So if anything happen can I use that backup and rest it as Factory Setting with S-ON ?
Don't really undersatnd what is the RUU use for?
Thanks

Not exactly. ClockworkMod backup and restore only saves and restores the whole ROM image, but not the SecurityFlag setting (S-OFF/S-ON), so restoring a CWM backup will not return you to S-ON state.
This is where the RUU comes into play. As long as you have the RUU for your particular phone and carrier, that is what you would use to return the phone to a full Factory Setting complete with S-ON. In the Development section there is a thread that has alot of the shipped RUUs for the IncS.
Sorry to tag onto this thread but 1 more question.....if the IS is already set up and now would like to get it rooted, following the procedure won't reset the device and clearing out the data right? I know using Unrevoked won't clear the data but not sure about this one. Kindly confirm

No, the S-OFF and rooting process will not wipe out your existing apps or data.
Hi, I just received my IS, the phone already S-OFF , android version 2.3.3 , but it has some app I don't want. I know that I need to rooted before I remove those, can I root this phone ? Or I need to follow the unrevoked 3 proceduce and flash the custom rom ?

No you haven't missed anything. The procedure instructions were for gaining S-Off using Revolutionary which installs a modified hboot that contains additional fast boot commands. So you must have a XTC clipped S-Off, so you simply need to install ClockworkMod by copying a PG32IMG.zip file to your SD card and letting the boot loader install it.
Shouldn't this be more like..
1. Download CMW's zip file (Available in this thread here)
2. Make sure the file is named "PG32IMG.zip" without quotes.
3. Put file in your SD card
4. Switch off phone
5. Pull out the battery and wait 5 seconds. Put the battery back in again. (This step is needed in case fast boot is enabled..)
6. Press vol down+power. HBoot (white screen with 3 android logos at the bottom) should load.
7. Wait a while.. it should pick up on your PG32IMG.zip automatically and install your custom recovery
8. Reboot into your OS and remove the zip
9. Go back into HBoot and then recovery. Use as you please (I suggest you take a backup first then proceed to flashing or doing anything else you might fancy )
Thanks for the reply. My HTC is not XTC cliped. I bought this at a retail store. When I checked the HBOOT is already S-OFF. So as you said, all I need to do is download the ClockMod and rename is as the zip file
Thanks
Hi tpbklake ,
Ok I tried to the instruction you provide earlier. I got the zip file, renamed and placed it on the SD card. HBOOT than I can see the HTC is saying Parsing the zip file, than i turn off the device and remove the Zip file from the SD card. And go back to HBOOT again choose recovery , and it show the red exclaimation mark . .. I don't know what happen in here, can someoen please help ?
Thanks

[Q] Stock image / rom

Well, I've been trying to use some custom roms and after all I restored the backup I made before, everything fine.
Today I wanted to try to use a custom rom again but it wouldn't work so I decided to wait for the official ICS release for the IncS. And here we get to my problem: When I restore the backup, and manually flash the boot.img (have to do this manually, got S-ON) and I boot my phone it gets to the HTC bootscreen, reboots and automatically gets to the CWM recovery.
Can anyone provide me an original boot.img (I haven't found it yet) or the whole standard android rom? If you have another solution, I would like to hear it!

You can find the latest OTA in the Android Dev section. If you would use the search function ( yeah we really have a "search" function.. ) you would easily find it. If you want your boot.img we do need what for a Rom from which carrier you got.

Actually I DID use the search, but I haven't found any stock roms for the IncS.. I would like a boot.img for T-Mobile carrier (that's what a 'carrier' is right?).

I have just been reviewing your posts and you posted that you applied the OTA and received HBOOT 2.01.0001, correct?
Then the RUU/ROM you need is the 3.11.405.2 version.
You also stated that you were able to unlock HBOOT 2.01.0001 using the HTCDEV.com site, correct? Which custom recovery did you install after that?

That's all correct, I installed the CWM recovery after that, not sure which version, the most recent one if I'm sure. I notice that the RUU/ROMS are .exe, do I flash these the same way as a .zip rom?

No, you run the exe on a PC and follow the directions on the screens. The program will tell you when to connect your phone to the PC using the USB cable.
This will completely wipe your phone and reload the ROM. Your HBOOT screen will probably show RELOCKED and you will need to unlock it again. Please confirm.

If that's true, I LOVE YOU, that's what I've been looking for. Is there a way to save my data like contacts, whatsapp messages and settings and stuff or do I have to live with the fact that I get a completely "new" phone?

You can sync your contacts to your Google/Gmail account or save them to your SD cards. You can use Titanium Backup to backup apps and some settings.
Well this sucks: The ROM Updatestff can't update the Android hpone. Get the right ROM Update program and try again.
Were you sure that this is the right one? ;p

This is the only one that has HBOOT 2.01.0001. You will also need to relock your HBOOT before you run the RUU using the command:
fastboot oem lock

Okay I did that now, it said that it was succeeded and a line under that one it said that it failed. Trying to update now, curious what happens.
It seems that he's updating now!
He updated it to the original Android, dude, you're amazing! Thanks mennnn! Just forbid myself to ever try a custom rom again and just stick to waiting for official releases

[Q] How to restore an unlocked, rooted, flashed phone back to stock?

Hi everyone, I am a new android user so I could use a little help!
I got my black HTC One sim-free version from Amazon UK, and have had a lot of fun using and learning about android. However I need to return the phone back to amazon, and am worried they won't take it due to the modifications now.
I unlocked my bootloader, rooted by installing SuperUser, installed CWM recovery and then flashed Trickdroid 5.2.1.
It's all working but I'm not really sure how I managed to get to this point as I just used Hasoon2000's excellent toolkit, with some more help from Torxx' tutorial (the AIO app came up with some errors after unlocking the bootloader). Foolishly I didn't make a backup of the original/stock rom or recovery either...
Can I just flash the Odexed version of the stock rom and associated recovery.img can I restore the phone back to stock? And what would be the order of doing that, and the commands I need to issue?
Thanks in advance.
have a look here might help you out

I am assuming what the did is what I need to do, however their instructions aren't clear enough for me!
Can anyone break down what commands are needed either with the command prompt and fastboot?
Or how to use the All in One app, and in what order?
Thanks!

Both post doesn't tell you how to put your rooted HTC One back to stock, It actually shows you how to unlock boot loader and root your phone.
been a while since ive used android, but I always remember having to flash the RUU and unroot
If you have a nandroid backup, can't you flash back to stock with that?

Unfortunately I didn't make a backup...
I too have this same problem and am yet to find a difinitive solution
Relock the bootloader then flash the appropriate RUU
the installation will fail if the CID don't match
Use this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35975359&postcount=3
Edit: You can also search the HTC One X Forums, the step-by-step manuals should work the same way (of course you have to use the One drivers and appropiate RUUs/Nandroid backups). When I reverted my old HOX back to stock to sell it I had to take a nandroid backup because I had a O2-branded HOX and O2 never released the appropiate RUU for Jelly Bean.
Edit 2: Link from HOX Forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859714
And here are the Links for RUU/Nandroid Collection for the One: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39588860&postcount=1
Of course you have to use the appropiate One files (check CID)!

[REQUEST] a ROM for 64-bit models A11_UL

I have bricked my Desire 510. I need a ROM to flash through philz touch recovery, if some one in Australia has this device with philz touch can you please make a backup in the recovery and then post it to me! Its my last hope because no RUUs are working.
Either that or make me a ROM that is for the Australian telstra 64-bit model maybe some ome can teach me how to create and compile it my self.
Have you tried a backup first ?

This seems like a Strange question I know, But have you tried doing a BACKUP FIRST ?
Now having had to rescue a couple of these phones (3 to be precise) , (all with the same nandroid backup I might add)
(With No help from HTC - where are the RUU links for our phone I have to ask?, that having been said, thanks HTC for letting me unlock bootloader, (still cool) I take it all back.....)
I have found however that if a flash completes but is no good , fails to boot for example, that if you FIRST, take a backup with philz of your corrupted system, - to allow the recovery to write a last log to (broken) system with mount points,phone specifics about baseband, serial no., etc,.. BEFORE trying to restore a Good copy of a nandroid backup
(hope you have one! )
That you should then be able to restore a nandroid backup to phone. sometimes even a nandroid that failed last time. (due to failing to find mount points)
A quick note on this point is that only backups made while booted into recovery have proven successful when trying to restore backups thus far, all methods of taking backups any other way are/will be corrupted and will not prove in any way useful to restore your device.
Most of the RUU updates are wrong bootloader by the way they are based on 3.4 kernel (32bit) and not 3.10 kernel which is what 64 bit is running.
I would offer you a copy of a nandroid myself but I am aware that radio firmware is tied to carrier and probably would not work for your baseband and carrier setup. If all else fails however you are of course welcome to try, (pm me if you need a copy) I dont think it will be too long before a successful port to our phone anyway.
Good-luck,
ki113r.

i have a similar case, i was able to get 64 bit RUU's from the internet (Asia WWE, and HTC Europe) but i can't flash them, the following is a description of the situation:
1. bootloader unlocked, custom recovery installed.
2. S-ON,
3. no userdata (system partition ?) i don't know the difference, i can flash boot (kernel) and recovery.
4. i can't flash the above mentioned roms since it is saying i have wrong CID, and i can't change the CID because S-ON
any tips ?
* i was able to download, compile & build kernel from source for telstra, i don't know how system (or userdata) image is built, any hint on that as well ?

Have u relocked the bootloader and then tried to install the RUU?
I had the same problem with restoring the orginal Rom.
I think the command for relocking the bootloader was "fastboot oem relock"

I've already done that, having the bootloader unlocked will throw another error, this was incorrect CID related one.
my phone is on Telstra (Australia) ROM, sadly, the RUU exists on some Persian forums with paid service, if there is a way where i can compile/build the system image from source, please let me know..

HTC One M8 With TWRP: Trouble With ROMs

Huge amount of frustration with trying to deal with my phone
I soft bricked my HTC One M8 HK not too long ago, and had left it sitting in the dust for a while as I had no options of fixing it because I wiped the memory on accident (how I did, I don't know. Guess I'm dumb. That's not the point though). It's been sitting on my dresser for about 2 months being unused as I had no microSD cards in hand. All it had was an unlocked bootloader and working TWRP.
As of right now, I've tried to install 4 ROMs. All 4 did not work. I followed the instructions and unlocked my bootloader and did all other essential things. I installed ViperOneM8 before being ignorant that my WiFi wouldn't work. It was the only ROM I installed that actually booted properly. The only issue was that I had no WiFi. Had it worked, I wouldn't be making this thread. Then I got Android Revolution HD, installed it and it installed properly. I booted it into system, and it brought me to bootloader. This was the same issue I had while trying to install my first ROM, and still happens. Then I got CyanogenMod, and it didn't even install. TWRP told me it failed right off the bat. Same thing with whenever I tried to install a stock firmware recovery of the variant I have, HK Sprint.
Right now, I'm getting the 4.2.5 HK RUU in hopes that it works. I tried it previously, and it was a literal waste of time. I've been here for 5 hours trying different ROMs and to no success. I was very faithful I would get to use my phone again, although unless this RUU actually works, I don't have a lot of positive faith for my phone.
Are there any fixes for getting something like CyanogenMod to work? I actually really wanted this ROM after I remembered it, and was quite let down after it failed to work. Also, is there anything I should do with the phone before I go farther with anything?
Thanks for any help you all can give, I would greatly appreciate it. Sucks not having a phone, so I'll take any help I can get. Thanks once again!
EDIT: The RUU did not work. It failed to update. Waiting for answers I guess..

Flashing RUU requires locked bootloader.
Alright, I'm seriously about to just throw this thing in the dumpster. I've been here another 2 hours trying to get Cyanogen to work, and I figured out the issue with it. The updater script file wasn't accepting m8_whl. I'm still unaware how in the Mod Edit I'm supposed to put m8_whl into the script for it to be accepted.
To be more specific, the actual updater script has m8whl, while my phone recognizes as m8_whl. It denies it.
I thought I put it into the script correctly, although it is not accepting it. I found a quote not saying the location, and I assumed in the latest release of Cyanogen 12 for M8s, it was in /META-INF/google/android/updater-script
Please, someone help me before I have an anger episode. This thing has literally wasted my whole Mod Edit day.

Don't toss it, it's still worth something, even if not to you. But as @popthosegaskets said, you need to relock the bootloader to flash the RUU. If it's been sitting for awhile, what version of firmware and hboot was it on prior to not working? Perhaps the issue is that it's older, also try flashing the newest version of TWRP if you still want to install a custom OS.
If you want to RUU, just use the fastboot command "fastboot oem lock" while in fastboot and then run the RUU. I think it reboots after locking.

[Mod hat on] I know it can be frustrating at times but please take it easy with the swearing. [/Mod hat off]
You might try flashing the Full firmware that matches the RUU that you are trying to flash, the past couple updates require hboots to match on both your device and the RUU or you will get an error.

My apologies for the swearing, was angry at the time.
Also, my hboot version seems to be 3.18. Not sure what to do in order to be able to flash firmware. My OS version seems to be 2.16.651.4 as well if that helps.
What would I have to do in order to install a ROM and how?
If you are not flashing the full firmware to begin with, that's the issue. From your OP it looks like you only have an unlocked BL and had TWRP.
You must relock the BL and then run the full RUU, you can get it in the thread here, or get it from HTC. Either way you need the full one, it flashes the FW and Software as well as bootloader and radios.

Are you S-Off or On? If you are running the *.651* then that's the non HK version. It's ok if you flashed a modified stock, but if you got that from an RUU, that would be what the issue is. I think

Then unlock your bootloader again using the unlock code you got from HTC.
Re-flash the latest TWRP found here... https://dl.twrp.me/m8/

If you have a platform-tools you can use that or use the folder attached.
Unzip it and copy the files to a folder.

Alright, I did it all, but it doesn't seem to be changing once I send over the zip. Is it meant to take a while or is there something wrong?
EDIT: 20 minutes later and still at the sending. Something probably went wrong.
EDIT 2: 30 minutes later, still sending.
