G1 DREAM (really is a dream, right now, a little bad one a little embarrassing)
been 5 mos since I took root via Cyanogenmod's latest G1 stable and last theme was PHRASh Then I thought about checking out
some other themes and clockwork orange caught my eye... Orange is my favorite color, so wehen I saw there was some Orange theme I must've had a dare encounter with myself-- i recall actually installing the Orange theme..... when i asked the phone to flash the theme, it went into permanent G1. Gave it about 12 minutes. Rebooted into recovery (home menu power) and then did what I think got me in deep droid doo doo -- I attempted to restore to my last backup whch was the day before (and ironically the BEST backup i ever made I had it all humming so nice and fast) Guys -- instead of hitting restore to last backup... I actually hit nandroid backup. I know. That was a really bad day and its been a worse 50 hours. I know -- and Ive learned -- OK?
Since that time.... 50ish hours Ive lost track of what Ive done, but its a potpourri
bootloader is dev spl skateboarding, recovery is Cyanogenmod JesusFreke 1.4 recovery.

SERIAL0 -- (fastboot i have fastboot as well)
at first flash of bootloader it says "NO IMAGE FOUND!"
If I press Home when it restarts in perpetual cyclical hell I get into CMJF recovery. I have executed every single option numerous times -- and have not been able to successfully flash anything else -- and now I dont know WHAT to flash. I even tried to go back to root!
If I dont press Home or Camera, I get this....
the awful permanent G1 screen. Forever and ever.
I have Wiped backed up, tried to get update.zip and just about ANYTHING into my sdcard but I dont think they have been successful installations to flash. I am not ADB enabled yet. Surely someone knows what this is all about and I am willing to take a flame for posting in the wrong forum if I can get something out of this, I will pitch in later and help y'all keep these forums in workin' order!
every optioon on the recovery screen which is recovery CM and JF 4.2
When I try to load files according to the instructions in xda and cm i cannot get it in fast enough on the g1 running on the frozen G1 screen because I dont known the time of mount the SDCARD has and when it begins (I know it opens for a while and then closes)
So i got droidexplorer and its almost impossible to get the file in there. I can get it in, and see it, and reboot the phone (and computer)( restore usb connection and I see the update.zip on the sdcard. Then I unmount the phone and reflash and it says something about not being able to find the file.
Whats next? Please dont assume I know what I am doing, I am sure you can tell -- but I am really good at following instructions!
Hello anyone?
I have been up all night trying to fix this phone and i am still not able to do so. I
I cannot get into recovery anymore ------
i am stuck on the hardspl and I have found fastboot again. But I cannot use frastboot if I cannot get any commands into it. Anyone?
ok i get it -
thanks for the help guys! I now have my phone working at a blitzing pace and i am leaving it alone for now. I dare myself to leave it unchanged for a week. Thanks mostly to one of the Dudes on Cyanogenmod.com -- who helped me piece together the missing parts.
Actually -- let me summarize even if only I am reading this
Androids levels of defenses are 1. HardSPL 2. Recovery and 3. normalcy. Lose normalcy (Ok, a beauty of a ROM) you have recovery to get the ROM back -- but the trick is -- can you get the necessary IMG file on your SDcard to update.zip with? Can you figure out ADB and push the update.zip? Can you figure out Fastboot and what it REALLY does and what you can and cannot do with FB? If you can do any of these or FB with ADB, then you have a good chance. Just dont lose the HardSPL. If you give up after frustration and while grinding your teeth waving a white flag, flash the DREAIMG.img file, then you have given up root and FB. But at least you are at RC29, the level where the froot can be found. It is weird hanging out in Android 1.0 lemme tell ya. Feels so 1980'ish with bellbottoms in late decline.
But now its android time at CM with Phrash.
Later
PLEASE HELP

I'm a noob sorry for explanation I cant load any roms or install from sd card. The last thing i did was update recovery it went to 2.5.I booted into recovery and my sdcard was empty now im stuck. I can get into recovery but when i apply update and reboot phone it stays on white evo screen. I dont know what to put on my sd card to fix. I have portable adapter for sdcard because my pc is not reading phone. I have been down three days now i dont know what to do. id like to stay rooted but i just want my phone to work please help.
Do i have a broken evo please help?
unfortunatley the only way (besides sending your phone in) is to do a sbf of the phone. it will wipe everything including your root. search around on the forums on how to do an sbf. to initially do it you need to get to your bootloader screen by using a combination of the power button and something else (idk i use the droid x) then use a program to flash the sbf. hope this helped.
and your phone isnt really "bricked" because you can get to the bootloader/recovery. completely bricked is not being able to do anything at all. Im sorry if this info is incorrect in any way since im basing it off of my dx knowledge.
oh i forgot to say its not allowing me flash anything through recovery. is there anyway i could install to my sdcard then put sd card in my evo?
thanks im about to try now!

I have the new inspire 4G. I recently rooted it with Bubbys one click. Obviously a great program to use or I can promise you that I wouldnt be up and running!! The problem I am having is that I want to load a new ROM. Looking at the core droid ROMS. I have downloaded the one I want and gone into my ROM manager to load it from SD card. Its on my SD card and I select it. Once it does the data wipe and backup it says its gonna reboot into CWM....the problem is that it never does. The HTC logo screen comes up and then fades to black. I have to take the battery out and put it back in to actually get the phone to turn off and back on. Once it turns back on it goes back to the same ROM ive been using that came with Bubbys once click. What the heck am I doing wrong??
I am totally new to this and have been reading everything I can get my hands on....but I need professional help....in more than one way Im sure!! Any help would be appreciated. I already checked the answer and questions page in Bubbys section. I didnt see an answer.

The dev has a faq posted that explains this as well, and a quick search through the general section would show around 20 threads talking about this issue.
Ok So I have an issue with my wife's inspire. I never bothered to root/rom it because she isn't techy like me. Lately though she's noticed mines so much faster... Naturally she wanted me to "do that nerd stuff" to hers too.
Unfortunately a lot has changed since I ran mine (like 9versions of Ace hack kit). Ace Hack kit wouldn't progress into step 2 (i press 2 and enter over...and over.. with no result) so I ran the one click. Unfortunately when it got to the 2nd PD98IMG it failed on System with a "FAIL-UZ" error. Now it will not boot, I CAN get it to HBOOT but no matter what SD card I use (I tried the one out of mine) when I try to load any other PD98IMG it consistently said "FAIL-UZ"
OK well for some reason I just got it to work again... NEVER mind my issue. I don't know what caused the issue, but I solved it by copying the PD98 onto my phone's SD card, put the SD card in wife's phone, and ran HBOOT again. it ran fine!
*EDIT*... ok so not quite fine. the PD98IMG file installed properly, but now i'm stuck on the white HTC screen...nothing doing past that... any help?
Bet she's pissed that she doesn't have a phone

I am assuming you made the Gold Card and are using that card to root?
Other than that are you making sure to clear Delvik and wipe first?
Pull up the root thread and follow the Utoob vid. It is step by step awesome.
One click just down graded my phone. Would not go any further after that.
The hack kit was used to finally enable how I have in my signature after the one click failed.
Hopefully you can figure out how to get it going again because you might end up sleeping on the couch mate. Hahaha

Seems to me you still need to push the downgraded Rom and radio, you can do it through hboot. If you get the white HTC screen then you need to try it again. After you do that it should boot up with no sound. Then you can try running the hack kit. After the downgrade step. If your looking for a earlier version of the hack kit there is one in the guide that is sticking at the top of this section.

i got a question does ur wifes phone still have manufactures warrenty? not to worry about the root or s-off AT&T at this point does not have a policy against rooting just dont tell them.. HTC just flashes the device after they validate the LDI and Phisical dam....I have returned many rooted phones with know worry
there's some instuction on how to get away from the white screen o' death, but i don't know everything worked for me.
sorry about it! i know how stressful that can be! i hope you make it thru!
i have heard some say if you can hboot you can make it so.. stick with it
go with the hack kit next time .. it will work
Have you tried pulling out the battery and then putting it back in, then trying again. Also reformat her sd card.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App.
I world format her SD card in ur phone. Pop it back in hers and start the hack kit process over again. The new kit is super easy it you read the help file a few times and really follow it. I beloved you will have to boot into hboot and factory reset you phone and go from there. Also check out the irc channel I bet a few guys in there might have some ideas aswell.

Hi everybody. I'm starting a new thread because there are quite a few issues on this phone and I wanted your help in understanding them.
I'm using an Orange HTC desire S which I bought from a local market in India. This was about six months back and it picked up my Vodafone sim easily so i presumed it had some kind of Sim unlocker.
PROBLEM 1
Fast forward to a few days back when I thought getting root access would be fun and would enable many more options. I booted into recovery mode and here is where the first problem kicks in.
When I boot using the volume + power button option, my phone tells me it's S-OFF and then proceeds(on its own) to a different menu. It shows two options only.
1. Device info
2. Clean S58 data
There's no way at all to return to the previous screen here on. It gets stuck here because option 1 gives me general data about the phone and option 2 runs what seems like the sim unlock problem, tells me there's no update and returns to the same menu. I'm always(2 attempts) left with only the battery pull option which invariably clears all the data on my phone and works like a hard reset.
I also tried this without the memory card and got stuck at the black screen with the red exclamation mark.
Can someone tell me what's wrong here and what I need to do to get root access.
PROBLEM 2
This is more of a confusion I face. Most of my friends using the Desire S have got the sense 3.0 update but my phone is still running on 2.1 and tells me it is up to date. On the forum, most people seem to have received the 2.3.5 and the 3.0 update. Why am I not getting it?
Is it because i'm not on the orange network or is it something else(like s off)?
What do i need to do to get the updates in India?
Thanks for reading.
Can someone tell me what's wrong and how I should proceed?

Sukrit, most of your answers are within your questions. I've highlighted them in Red...
First of all, just because you purchased it in India (Somewhere like Gaffar Market, etc) doesn't mean it's from HTC India. HTC software update doesn't look at what sim card you're using to allot upgrades to your phone... It localises you depending on the software shipped with the phone.
Secondly, your phone is an Orange branded device and unlocking stuff is usually more troublesome and dangerous on branded devices... As for the solution to PROBLEM 1 as posted by you, look inside your sd card for a file named PG88IMG.zip. If you find it, back it up on your pc and delete it from the sd card. See if that helps, as having an update zip on your memory card will force your bootloader to flash it whether you want it to do so or not... Let's call it the phone's "instinct" to flash the PG88IMG.zip if it finds it while in bootloader.
I also suggest you read the Guides in the general section carefully, especially the warning about branded devices... But since you say you're s-off, half the battle is already won and i think you'll be okay to root.
As for the battery pull, it does not reset your phone data my friend... your data will all be safe and all it does is a soft reset, NOT a hard reset. You are more likely to fry your eMMC chip doing that... and that would be a MUCH bigger problem, as i'm kinda sure your phone doesn't even have a distant cousin called "warranty"
Let me know if you found an update zip on your sd card like i mentioned above, and we'll pick it up from there.
Cheers. Hope i can be of help.
Thanks a lot for answering and helping me with my problem.

I've understood this but does it also mean that unless i'm on the Orange network, I won't get the update?
Also, great guess on where I got the phone from

I understand. There are two files that i think are relevant.
1. HTC-ANDROID-GOLD_CARD. I haven't put this in as far as I remember. Size-0 bytes.
2. PG88DIAG.nbh. I'm presuming this is the file you were talking about? There is a slight difference in name,though.

This is what is weird,Amit. If I pull the battery when the phone is at the device info and clear s58 data screen, it always hard resets. All software/contacts,basically anything on the phone memory disappears. Why does this happen?
If you think this behavior is normal then i'll remove the file in the memory card and try again.
Thanks a ton!

Why don't we start by removing the PG88DIAG file from the sd card (back it up on PC), and also the GOLD CARD file, which obviously was used by the nefarious Gaffar guys to s-off your phone...,
This will hopefully give you access to bootloader and fastboot so you can root and flash a custom recovery. Once you've done that, you can flash whatever ROM you like.
I'd recommend Endymion if you want the best possible sense 3.5 experience...
Let me know if removing those two files allows you to remain in bootloader and access recovery...
Hey Amit. Removing the two files has worked fine. Thanku
What steps should i take now to get root access?
Or, can I just load the orange ROM available on the other thread without rooting?

Congrats buddy!
Firstly, you cannot flash a custom ROM without a custom recovery...
To obtain root access, you can use Gingerbreak.apk
I suggest you just flash a custom recovery (I personally recommend 4EXT Recovery) via fastboot or you can simply use 4EXT Recovery updater app (free) or 4EXT Recovery Control app (paid, check my signature for link), then take a nandroid backup of your current ROM, and then Flash a Custom ROM.
You don't have to stick to Orange ROMs... you can flash whatever ROM you want... I highly recommend Endymion, but the choice is ultimately yours to make...
Glad you got this far... happy times ahead for you!!

Yup, everything seems to be fine. Go ahead and root your phone... flash 4EXT Recoery via 4EXT Recovery Updater app, and then after taking a backup, and doing a full wipe, flash whatever ROM you want to...
Read the instructions and guides carefully in the general and Development section prior to this, and remember...DO NOT REMOVE THE BATTERY WHILE THE PHONE IS STILL ON! It's better to try other methods to reboot it, or even let it discharge over time and switch off by itself, rather that attempt to pull battery. Othert than this, i think you're ok to flash a new ROM, and enter the amazing world of custom ROMs...
Hey. I decided to be a little experimental and just couldn't wait either; installed revolutionary and i've got root access. Ha!
Thanks so much for your help.
Now tell me, what ROM should I use?
i've also installed clockwork.
Thanks a ton again!
Edit: I think you missed a part of my reply. Gingerbreak hadn't worked hence i opted for this.

If you want a Sense 3 ROM, go for Hyperion
For Sense 3.5 (My personal favourite) go for Endymion
For crazy theming options, you can try MIUI from MIUI.us
If you like plain stock look.... Cyanogenmod.
I would however still recommend Endymion (Though i like v2.2 better than v3)
P.S. Just a friendly question... Gaffar me kitne ka pada ye phone? I bought my phone new...but my wife wants one now and i don't want to put in the money for a new phone from a mobile store...
i'll get endymion then, should follow your advise since you've helped so much. Do i need to make any changes to the hboot/radio?
and should i get both 3.1 and the add on package?
yaar, it'll be a lot cheaper now. when i bought it tab market price was around 22.5. I got it for 16.5 with box and accessories. At that time, there were only two shops that had the desire S and this was the only one that functioned properly.
i'm pretty sure you can get it for less than 13k now.
I'll try n get you the shop's name and number. i've bought both the desire and the desire s from him and they've worked well.

You can get the v3.1 without the addon initially. See how it works for you... Then you can flash the addon package if you feel like Modding the ROM. I'm still on v2.2 because I didn't feel the need to upgrade.
Please do get me the number of your guy in gaffar as I'm planning to get a galaxy note as well as a desire s...
Beamed from the Dark Side using xda premium.
Hey. Looked everywhere for the number but I just can't find it. Awfully sorry,man.
I don't know if you've ever been to Gaffar before but just incase you haven't,do ensure that you buy from a proper shop and not people with cabinets full of phones. These guys will offer you cheaper prices but will also disappear in a couple of days.
There are only 5-6 big shops which sell import phones,most of them are decent and will offer you a week or two worth of hardware guarantee. Enough for you to atleast test the phone out.
