[Q] Security Warning, Stuck In Bootloader...

Hello all,
This morning I decided to clear data/wipe as I wanted to install a new rom, but once I did that the device would not boot up anymore. Yes it was S-Off using the Alpharevx. After I saw that it would not boot up I thought I would try to restore it with the rom that I was using before the S-off (Sasktel Froyo). After flashing the rom I have been stuck in the bootloader with the msg ***Security Warning*** and not been able to fix it since.
I have extracted the rom.zip out of all the stock roms and renamed them PG32IMG but none of them would work... I googled to see if anyone else has had an issue like this and found that an HTC Thunderbolt went through the same thing and all you have to do is flash it with the firmware the phone came with. My Incredible S is from Bell Canada and I cannot find that RUU anywhere...
Can anyone please help me because I really don't know anything else that I can do... I am lost.
I am going to post the image of the bootloader so you guys can see what I am talking about...
Thanks for all your help, I appreciate it.

did you use an goldcard while flashing the PG32IMG.zip? because you will need this

I used a goldcard to flash the Sasktel rom initially, now when I try to flash Sasktel again it says "Main Version is older!". How can I do now when I am in the bootloader?
Is there the stock rom from Bell out by any chance?

When flash new recovery ,do not plug your device in USB.

^ I have already tried that numerous times still no luck.
I don't understand why it will not boot up with Sasktel rom...
EDIT: Is there any way when the phone is in bootloader for Alpharevx to detect it so I can S-Off again? I believe that if I can S-off the phone again I can flash the other ROMs and install Clockwork again... Is that possible?

Anyone any idea?

try get a hold of one of the devs from alpharev, this goes beyond limits for this sections mate ;/

Yes I already have, they have told me that the only way of fixing it is with an XTC clip. Luckily there is someone in my area willing to meet .
Thanks for your help.

An XTC clip is the best option for you...
You cant down grade an S-ON Phone with the goldcard !!! so i dont see ny options for ur case !! u should go with the words of the alpharevx developers !!!

Hey thanks for the help...
I met up with someone that tried to S-Off my phone with the XTC clip and that didn't even work. I think the only way to fix the phone is just wait it out until Bell releases their gingerbread update...

The phone has a froyo Rom but it is stuck with a gingerbread radio. That is why the original froyo Rom you went back to will not work. (Can't downgrade from gingerbread radio to froyo radio) Only option is to some how get a gingerbread Rom on your phone.
I don't think you can flash your phone with an RUU the normal way.(goldcard way)
Check this thread out. Info about flashing an RUU for the a Canadian Incredible S.

You have to flash the stock RUU the phone came with originally. That is the only way to fix it.

EDIT: Resolved, pm me if you want help claudiujer

neo-X maybe you should share the solution how you did it?

I flashed the 6.03.03 radio in gu1dry's thread, but they are actually ruu's (i didn't know) and the "main version" in that ruu was 1400 (ieftm has now pointed it out to gu1dry). I then tried to be smart and downgrade to the optus rom which was a lower version which of course failed half way through but by that time it was too late.
I was however very lucky that the higher version RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.30.405.1 was posted in Football's thread, so i decide to give it all one last shot. So i ran that ruu with a goldcard and i worked.
Claudiu, i can't reply to your PM for some reason. so just reply here (I think you've disabled PM's)
Claudiu, from command prompt run "fastboot getvar all" with your phone connected while in fastboot this will tell you what main version you are running, you are going to have to get an ruu that is higher than this version, otherwise it won't work.

I have done that so many times and it hasn't worked because I have the Bell IncS. I will try to flash the radio though and hopefully I will get something different...

I had the same problem. Error 140 means there's a corruption in the a cards data structure.
Did you unlock your bootloader?
Pm me with what you have done so far. I'll help as much as I can, but be forewarned you may need to replace your device regardless.

When you run the ruu, you must re-lock your bootloader. Have you locked your bootloader?
Go to this thread, they have the tool you need to fix your phone:

Hope it helps! Good Luck

you say it's bricked, but yet it goes into bootloader you can flash ruu?
i think you maybe misspoke, what happened exactly? can you show pictures?
error 140 bootloader version error is simple, it means that the main version is newer than the one you are trying to flash. since you flashed ics ruu, you cannot go back to gb ruu. you have to follow the guide here by thecubed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529669
if u can take pics first and show me what your phone is doing before you do anything else that will be better

Please don't make two separate threads in two different sections asking for the exact same thing.

IIRC, you have to be able to boot the phone to get this method to work?
I'm having a similar problem and I tried the file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529669 to no avail, it doesn't say an error code it just reboots and goes black after HTC boot screen.
I think my problem started when I tried to flash the OTA from androidninjas; he put the ICS hboot on top and I was too excited to read so I d/l and flash the file (was named PH39IMG...) but when I went to boot it turned black. So I d/l and flash the new file, after using HBOOT to clear out the phone etc. Still no luck. And I've tried numerous GB ruu's as well as every ICS one I can find. Brick?
Definitely interested to hear the fix to this.

Before flashing ICS, did you relock your Hboot & were you running GB?
If your screen went dark, but can still get into hboot, you are fine. Just need a recovery. There is an error with the older standard CWM. So you need to install a new version of recovery.

Yes to both and I thought relocking got rid of root? So I was afraid I wouldn't be able to flash a custom rom.

Moved to General sub section, please pay attention where you open a thread next time

if it's locked..just boot to fastboot, plug the phone into your computer, and run the latest ruu. Then unlock

Can't find my RUU

I have been looking around but i can't find my RUU.
I want to return my phone back to stock, since i can't update my phone while rooted.
Also my experience with this is seriously 0 (buddy of mine rooted this), so i'm sorry if i might sound stupid.
I have downloaded all the Ruu files from the return back to stock forum here and non of them worked.
My software number is: 1.29.111.11
Thanks in advance

Alright, now that I have a clear mind and actually read your question completely...
When you tried the previous RUUs before, did they fail during flash or did Android not function correctly when you got in?
If the RUU flash failed, you more than likely still have an unlocked bootloader, which was required during the root process and the RUU does not like, so it fails.
Considering your knowledge on Android/HTC One, I'm going to point you here, download the Toolkit, extract it to somewhere... Note: I am not affiliated with the development of the Toolkit, I have used it before and IMO it is a great program, very HTC One noob friendly.
On your phone make sure USB Debugging is enabled, then, launch the Toolkit -> On the left hand side, under Basic ADB, click Bootloader. Your phone will turn off, then get into the Bootloader.
At the top, it should say Unlocked, if it does, you need to relock the bootloader, now on the right hand side of the Toolkit, check the checkbox under Agreement which will then enable the Re-lock button, click that (DO NOT CLICK S-On), Your phone will reboot to Android, Once back, click the Bootloader button again Under Basic ADB. This time instead of Unlocked, it will say Relocked. Now try running the RUU again, this time it should work.
Once the RUU flash is done, you should be all set to get going again.

that's normal you have to issue "fastboot flash zip firmware.zip" twice!
so now IMMEDIATELY do it again, DO NOT REBOOT
the second flash should come back with success

"cannot load" just means the filename (ie "firmware.zip") is wrong. check your folder for the correct name.

Nope, superSU should still be there. You only upgraded firmware, nothing to do with ROM or SU.

It's not the root preventing the update from what I can tell. What you need is to flash stock recovery over twrp

[Guide] How to Downgrade from KK to JB S-OFF Required

Okay Guys. here is a guide how to downgrade back to JB from using KK. You will need to be S-OFF and also will to have a locked or relocked bootloader. and just follow my steps. You will need adb and fastboot and you will need the 3.05.651.6 decrypted you will find the file here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2576995
(1) From fastboot you need to first re-lock your bootloader. using this command
fastboot oem lock
then you reboot your device into bootloader. make sure your device shows relocked or locked on top of the screen. once you see that then go to step #2
(2) now type this command fastboot oem rebootRUU after that you should see black screen with green HTC logo.
if you got this far go to step #3
(3) now the file you downloaded please rename it too rom.zip (make sure you have it named correctly) my advice i would just found the file you downloaded and right click it and look for rename and i would just type the word rom and hit enter to ensure it is correct. If you did that go to step #4
(4) Now, type this command fastboot flash zip rom.zip , let it run it course during the process you will see this message . " pre hboot 90 " if you see that then just press the up arrow on the keyboard and press enter and let the process run again and then let it run it will flush your device at this point and will lose everything on your storage. once you have done that sit back 10-20 mins. and wait for the process to finish. after that go to Step #5
(5) type this command in command prompt fastboot reboot-bootloader and press enter . Once your at bootloader menu select factory reset and press power button and let it do reset and when it done. your device will reboot and your done.

P.S. Hopefully this will help you for anyone that needs this.

I'm here to agree! I can't get an older RUU to flash and I'm S-OFF. I've tried on multiple computers and done everything I can think of... With no luck. I've tried the whole "tricking" the bootloader to thinking you're using an older base and everything.

It's odd that some are having issues while others are not. I just ruu'd again from stock kk to make sure I wasn't going crazy with a 3.04 encrypted zip I extracted from the official ruu. Did it in mac os x and went off without a hitch.

Does 4.4.2 perform worse?

So i bought this phone used and i was waiting to activate it because i was on Verizon and didn't have time to switch to sprint. I ended up unlocking, rooting, installing PAC Rom (cause that one was cool on my HTC Rezound). When i went to the Sprint store, the phone wouldn't activate on the network. while i was there i tried to flash a stockish ROM and the phone crashed/froze while installing.
For the longest time, connecting as a media device wouldn't work but i finally got that and adb/fastboot working again. I have tried restoring my old stock backup, installing a new stock rooted ROM, installing a different ROM, reinstalling PAC.. PAC is the only ROM that doesn't keep crashing.
I have tried searching for other threads on XDA and elsewhere.
I have not tried flashing a RUU because i didn't think it would work but am willing to try if someone thinks it might.
Does anyone know how to fix this? I am without a phone now since Sprint already ported my number over from Verizon.

After flashing the RUU, won't I still have an unknown MEID, ETC? I have the box with all the numbers on it if there is a way I can reprogram it into the phone.

Not sure never dealt with something like this but at least you would have a fresh sense platform to work with.
Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Thanks to both of you I am up and running again!
I found the actual latest RUU and that one flashed without error and once everything settled, the phone was as it should have been.
5.05.651.2 (latest as of 10/29/14)

This actually happend to me last night after I flashed ElementalX 18 kernel on Eragon v54.0. The 3 Sense based ROM's I tried to flash after would crash and boot loop during setup. I found I could get a CM/AOSP based ROM to boot., but not setup. Wifi worked but no mobile data, and no phone.
For me it turns out the Radio got corrupted. I Re-flashed the latest radio and all was good again. I was able to flash a Sense ROM without any crashing. I didn't have to RUU and lose any data.
Hopefully this helps someone else this might happen to, so they don't have to RUU and start over or lose any data.
