IPL 0.49 ?!? Can't flash - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading

Friend of mine has a O2 Xda
Bad flash most likely
Initially it would boot up but freeze, tried flashing it BUT when in bootloader mode
IPL is @ 0.49
SPL is normal 2.15
Tried flashing it while in bootloader mode, get 3 different scenarios
1. Will say connection problems
2. Will flash till 6% then give "wrong region" error
3. Bootloader will turn on / off

which rom did you flash? seems almost like a bootloader from a totally different device...

i didn't flash it, i asked my friend he doesn't even know what he tried

Semi-bricked Rogers Magic - Please Help!

I'm an idiot and tried to flashboot a new ROM on my phone without an engineered SPL. I got the standard error
"failed <remote: signature verify fail>"
In my defense i'm a noob who only now understands that I can't remote fastboot using my current SPL.
Now my phone hangs on the ROGERS splash screen.
I can get into HBOOT, FASTBOOT and RECOVERY. However I do not have any previous .img files to flash (I created a backup a few months ago and now I can't find it).
I have searched this forum (and elsewhere) and I cannot find how to restore my phone (I find lots of threads saying you can, but none with any useful steps)
Fastboot menu says:
- SPL 1.33.0009
- Radio 3.22.20.17
Please HELP!

Thank you guys.
I did search and read tons of threads and how to's but without knowing exactly what to search for, it is really hard for a noob.
I got it all up and running now. Thanks again.
Ok now I have a new problem.
I upgraded my SPL to 1.33.2010.
I'm trying to upgrade my Radio next however fastboot just hangs. It recognizes the device but when I "flash radio" it just sits at "send" forever.
I have tried reinstalling all my drivers and the sdk tools. Same problem.
Anybody have ideas?
Are you trying to follow the Cursordroid's guide to update to Radio 6.35.x / SPL 1.76? In that case it's strange to hear the send process loops forever.
1. have you double checked fastboot recognises your device? (fastboot devices)
2. is your USB cable plugged?

Yes I am following Cursordriods guide and Amrons. I spent 12 hours and didn't go to bed last night working on this stupid problem. I was at my wits end. Hair sticking up, nervous eye and head twitches, rings around eyes, and 20 hail mary's later I tried an absolutely desperate move and plugged my USB cable into the back USB ports instead of the front ones.........it worked. I didn't know if I should cry or beat my computer with a baseball bat.
Anyway. Thank you to everyone who were helping me out. Nice community here.
Cursordriods Sense ROM rocks. Highly recommended.

help!! May have bricked my phone

I updated the Radio on my 32a then I went to Fastboot mode to load the hboot image and discovered that i get a (failed : remote not allowed) message everytime I try to flash anything. So I guess I need a goldcard the only problem is I can't boot up to reformat the SD and make a goldcard...
Any idea's??
I'm lost!!
Can someone make a Goldcard for me, on another phone? I don't know what to do,
Thanks in advance...
anyone???
I'll pay for a goldcard if someone sends me one, assuming I can use one made on another phone in my phone. I need a way to get past my Fastboot mode and I can't boot to recovery or get anywhere else... to make a Goldcard
HELP?!?!
i used my memory card that came with my phone to create a gold card and it worked perfectly well just make sure you follow the guide to the letter.
you cant use one from another phone as you have to get the CID from your phone which is unique from phone to phone.
i believe what you should of done was flash the image first then update the radio but just search the forums theres bound to be someone with the same problem or even a google search might help

But I can't use my phone to make a Goldcard because I can't get it booted up to a point where i can use adb shell. Only Fastboot
use a card reader. if you don't have one, go buy one, they are very useful to have lying around...
hi

What's your HBOOT version? I got that while upgrading my RADIO. All I had to do was install an engineering SPL first. Then I was able to flash the new SPL.
you need to post more info. what radio did u upgrade to and whats your spl/hboot? Also, what recovery did u use?
I also noticed you saying something about the blueLED, I thought you could still get into fastboot...
can you still get into fastboot? I'm confused, cause you went from being able to go into fastboot and then now it's completely dead?

RADIO-6.35.00.29 (was 3.22.20.17 before update)
June 2 2009, 17:28:28
I the current recovery is RA-magic-v1.2.3H and I was trying to upgrade to RA-hero-v1.6.2 and Hboot 1.76.2007.
I got the radio upgraded but when I go to Fastboot to flash the hboot i get the (Failure: remote not allowed) error. So I can't change anything with the current hboot. I'm guessing I need a goldcard since I can't get to recovery mode, but every set of instructions for making a Goldcard requires the phone to be in adb shell mode which i can't get too.
At this point i don't care if i get the new radio on or not I just want it working again. I was running the SuperD 1.9.3 ROM with the Old radio...
The Blue LED issue wasn't me, I dont know who that is or what that was about.. I CAN still get to fastboot
Um, is that an engineering SPL? I believe you need one before doing this.
Did you try flashing the old radio again? Also, how did you upgrade your radio? Did you use Fastboot or Recovery?
If you can't flash anything.. well I dunno what else to do, never seen this problem yet. Maybe someone else with some more knowledge can help you, but try searching. I'm sure you're not the only one who's been through this situation.
Give this a try, I have no idea if it works though.

Download the Hero Recovery Image
Put it in your androidsdk/tools folder
in fastboot, type

The only way i know how to change the Radio back is to Flash it through fastboot and this is the message i get when flashing anything through fastboot:
FAILED <remote: not allow>
The first time i changed the Radio to the new one I did it through recovery mode
I can't make it in to recovery mode anymore...
help?...
If you flash an engineering SPL you'll be able to continue. Flash 1.33.2010 and then continue from there. That happened to me too.
If you can read:
Prerequisites:
- HTC Magic / Sapphire 32A
- Engineering SPL
----- 1.33.2005
----- 1.33.2009
----- 1.33.2010
----- If you boot into fastboot and have issues with "fastboot:remote not allow", then your SPL won't work. Upgrade to Engineering SPL before continuing.
----- If you do not have an Engineering SPL, download 1.33.2010 and flash through recovery before starting this procedure. Flash the SPL update.zip like any other update.zip file.

how do I flash it through recovery if I can't boot into recovery?
can your computer detect the device? can ADB detect it? Can you get into fastboot mode (Power+Back)? You could try to flash the engineer SPL (and the old radio) through command prompt:
Do it in this order:
Code:
fastboot flash radio Radio_HTC_PVT_32A_3.22.20.17.img
fastboot flash hboot hboot-1.33.2010.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.5.2H.img
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot reboot-bootloader
The files you'll need are all at this topic.
perhaps you missed the part about any fastboot command giving me a
FAILURE <remote: not allow> error
The one thing that gives me hope is that I get about 1-2 seconds of response from adb during boot up before it shuts down and starts the boot process again. If I knew how to run an update.zip from adb shell in one or two commmands maybe i have a chance at loading the old radio or engineering SPL or something. If I try to get to recovery mode it locks up after a second and I can't run the update through the menu...

If you have fastboot, can't you fastboot boot recovery.img?
It's like a liveCD boot. Or maybe flash the old radio back on.
You did say you have fastboot, right?

Isn't there an HBoot mode that applies whatever is in an update.zip file? You may be able to recover your radio that way.

Hi
A friend gave me his htc magic because he crashed him.
he has already rooted his device
he put 2.1 rom and he decided to put another "fastest" and he crash his device
he told me that radio is bugged and his rom too.
I think with what i read on this forum that it's semi bricked because i can go to the Fastboot with pushing back and Power
When i put him on regulary i get Rogers screen then a Black screen.
What do you think about it ? bricked ? semi bricked ? Recoverable ?
here is a Video who show what happen when i press differents Buttoms

If you can't get into recovery you may need to flash the 1.6.2H recovery image from here:

and if you can't flash recovery (due to the SPL being Perfected) and you want to try something from scratch (you may have downgrade the new radio back to 3.xx via this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=605239 )
You can try something like Cyanogenmod with this 32A Wiki Guide. (Though I *Think* you'll need to get a Engineering SPL to get rid of any Perfecting)

You'll probably need to downgrade to an Engineering SPL for your phone if you are unable to do fastboot flash radio radio.img from the command line.
(I'd look more for you but I'm currently coding a website for a client).
i tryed to make the first part of http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream/Magic32A_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod
"if it says 'Remote Not Allow' or similar, your SPL may need to be changed"
They are exactly say that in the commands prompt so i need to flash my Spl i'm actualy trying =)
and i think that i have to make a Gold card to flash my spl
Edit
I tryed to Downgrade my SPL with a tutorial in my language
"http://swissdroid.wordpress.com/2010/02/23/32a-changer-le-spl-ou-le-radio-de-votre-magic/"
And i cannot flash anything they alway say "sending 'xxx' <xxkb>... FAILED (remote: Not allow)
Ans i don't know how i could make a goldcard with a bricked phone.
So What can i do ? ..
The "remote not allowed" means the SPL is perfected. Perfected means that it's "Locked".
You have to make a gold card:
http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/14/how-to-root-your-mytouch-3g/
Once you have a gold card then you download a new SPL and put it onto the card (read instructions from there):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4332591
Engineerings SPL v1.33.2010
Once you have an Engineering (prefered) or non-perfected SPL you'll be able to flash what you need without the 'remote not allowed' message.
But I must warn you, make sure you read the instructions several times before doing anything and verify that its for your exact device.
Thanks for you Help Kbeezie

You can't do adb from fastboot, only from the recovery. If you flashed a new SPL (Engineering) You need to then flash the appropriate recovery/radio/hboot, then when you turn off the phone you press and hold down Home + Power to get into Recovery mode, once there then you can do adb, or you can mount the USB and copy over an update.zip or rom file.
Kind of hoping someone with experience on the older Magic/MyTouch (32B) chimes in.
Okay
but i can't flash recovery so
i need flash my Spl and i can't flash normaly my spl 'not allowed"
so i need to make a goldcard and i need use Adb commands so how can i make goldcard ? i don't understand ..

The new SPL is placed on the goldcard, then you do volume down + power in order to Hboot, doing so will cause it to update the SPL package. You don't flash an SPL with fastboot command .
yes but i can't make the goldcard for flashing my SPL because i need to make adb commands so what can i do ? ..
I'm sorry i really don't understand :$
It mean that my magic is dead ? ..
How did you write your fastboot info if you cant access fastboot mode? I cant believe that someone could memorize every detail, including the exact list of options.
Its just that that SPL is a perfected one...you could try re-flashing it by using a goldcard via fastboot. Or try running RUU.

In the step to create goldcard i need tu use ADb commands to get my CID but i can't use them.
So how could i get my CID ?
And Kbeezie Told me that it's because it's in recovery that we can use those commands.
So how can i make the goldcard ?
That what i don't understand :$

[HOW TO] Flash RUU / OTA when getting ERROR 155 although phone is back to stock

If you're constantly getting ERROR 155 when trying to flash an RUU even though you've already returned your phone to stock, you also need to RELOCK the bootloader!
I'm writing this because for some reason just getting the phone back to stock (i.e. restore image of stock ROM through custom recovery then flash stock recovery) didn't work for me. It only worked after I RELOCKED the bootloader.
Step 0. Restore your phone to stock FIRST, i.e. restore stock ROM from image using custom recovery then flash stock recovery.
Step 1. Restart your phone into bootloader either by hard-off (i.e. keep power button pressed for min. 10 sec) then volume up + power button or by adb at the command prompt:
Code:
C:\> adb reboot-bootloader
Step 2. Type this command at the command prompt:
Code:
C:\> fastboot oem lock
Don't worry if it says FAILED anywhere in the output, it should all be fine regardless. The phone should reboot automatically into bootloader and should say RELOCKED.
Now you can flash any RUU (EDIT: only if compatible with your CID) and you can also check for and install OTA updates. Once you've done this, your HBOOT and RADIO should be updated to the latest version so you can UNLOCK again using the HTCDev method and then flash whatever you want to flash.
Hope this helps you guys!
P.S. I think it's worth also trying this for other ERROR codes... you never know, it may help.
Getting error 131 didn't help. But much thanks for trying help
i hear voices in my head
Any RUU or still only the specific carrier RUU?
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
I think the prob is that i have VODAP102 CID in ruu 1.5... and 1.78
i hear voices in my head
had that error too, worked for me with locking bootloader
again, starting ruu-exe after that.
thanks

I don't know how you can sort out the CID issue. I have a SIM free phone so I haven't really looked into that. Sorry....
are you refering to recovery stock (step 1)?
i get error 155 but i have stock recovery and locked bootloader,
my bootloader says security warning though which is strange.
current rom is the ir1 modaco stock rom
i had 155, i put stockrecovery back and relocked bootloader, then 155 changed to battery too low error, so turned it off, charged for 2hrs, and the ruu worked for the first time
I have HTC One S z560e and i want to go back to stock but even with the bootloader unlocked i still get 155error.... what should i do?
Hey people.
Can someone tell what version of RUU i can use for HTC one S4 im in portugal?

[Q] bricked evo design (kingdom)

well i recently came across a evo design (codename: kingdom), or hero-s as its called in other markets.
long story short, i flashed it to a local carrier revol (similar to metro/cricket).
and during that process i foolishly flashed some non-vol items to it and it is now bricked.
it only boots to the white htc splash and restarts in a loop
i can only access hboot and fastboot. i cant even get into recovery.
the only good things i have going for me are that i have my Unlock_code.bin so i can unlock/relock my bootloader (no s-off on this device)
and that i got a copy of my non-vol items from CDMA Workshop from before i borked it, and a copy of what broke it (from whiterabbit.org)
...im just not sure if thats enough
sucks cause it would be an easy fix if i could just use adb :/
any help is appreciated...tia
-d
a little more info on what ive tried so far
ive installed new recoveries, cwm and twrp, via fastboot PH44IMG.zip...they install fine but will not boot into the recovery.
ive installed the same recoveries via fastboot usb and RUU (flashboot flash recovery recovery.img)...they install fine but will not boot into the recovery.
ive tried the 'downgrade ruu' (RUU_Kingdom_S_Sprint_WWE_2.12.651.5_Radio_1.11.00.1228_NV_SPCS_2.97_removeCIQ_release_234636_signed.exe)...it flashes fine but still a boot loop (phone was 2.12.651.8 originally i believe).
ive tried ics ruu's but all ive found are for boost so i get a cid error...when i changed the cid to sprint i got another error that i cant recall.
i got my hands on sprints newest OTA update (OTA_Kingdom_ICS_35_S_Sprint_WWE_3.14.651.0-2.12.651.8_release_27047061zjyiwl2kn4vskn.zip)....but its a 'scripted update' so it will not install via hboot or fastboot.
i extracted the above OTA update, and retrieved the firmware.zip (contains boot, hboot, radio and recovery) and installed that fine...but no recovery still even after cwm/twrp reinstall.
even though my phone is unlocked its still s-on, so the only things i can manage to install manually with "Fastboot flash" are signed binaries (boot_signed.img and recovery_signed.img) anything else i get "FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)"
anyone know if i can flash the rest of the update without error?
i still have dzdata.img, splash1.nb0,NV_MFG_eMMC_SPCS_2.97_1206_PRL51082.nb, ramdisk.img, rcdata_2.97.img and tp_atmel224_20aa.img maybe one of those will overwrite the spot i fudged up...idk
