[COLLECTION] CWM Recovery [WIP], unsecure BOOT, ENG H-BOOT for S-OFF users

Hi,
this is a development & collection Thread. The PG58IMG.ZIP files can be flashed through SD-CARD in HBoot Mode. This works only for S-OFF users. If you don't have S-OFF you cannot use the files. There is no way to get S-OFF on a normal S-ON phone now.
Unsecured Boot.img (give you a root adb shell):

http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=623951&d=1307966840 Asia (thanks to jerryzyl)
ENG Hboot (enables more HBoot commands, not necessary for most users):
[thanks Rahan95 for dumping ]
http://81.89.105.12/~bin4ry/hboot/PG58IMG.zip
I'm trying to get the CWM Recovery working. It would be helpful if S-OFF users flash it and report what's working and what's not. ATM we have a screen issue that i'm trying to fix. So it would be nice if you make photos and attach them to your post. Also please attach the 2 files:

Thanks to all testers

Thanks....And I wonder if the recovery can flash custom roms.

Recovery is WIP = Work in Progress !
So it's @ very early state. Normally it should work, but as i said before we have screen resolution issues!
First fix the screen issue then test all functions

Well, I think this boot.img is for Europe users,right?So Asia users flash it and cannot use wifi...
I made a unsecrued boot.img for Asia 1.28.707.2 users..
There is 95% users in China using Asia ROM nowHopefully it is useful for every s-off Asia users

Be on it later. At work now so flashing is out.
(unless there is a relay tasty on then I might attempt an fastboot under the desk)

Ah. no S-Off yet. Will try this stuff once software S-Off is attained.

Is "Ship S-OFF" enough? Or do i need "ENG S-OFF" to be able to flash the new Boot.img?

SHIP S-OFF is enough. Also, via SHIP S-OFF, you can get ENG S-OFF by flashing the PG58IMG.zip if you want that contain ENG S-OFF

Hm... getting the error "FAILED <remote: not allowed>"

[Q] hang up at HTC sreen ,device S-on, HELP !!!

My phone was hang up at HTC screen ,
in Hboot, it show S-On,
tried to run the RUU (2.31.720.2, same as the current rom version with the device) and PG88IMG.zip flashing.
Both stuck at Bootloader flashing,
any idea ??
appreciated for help ...

You've posted in wrong section. I requested this post to be moved in general or q&a section.
However, I don't think RUU 2.31.720.2 exists for Desire S.
Are you sure it is named "RUU_Saga_xxx... ?", and that you have a Desire S ? (Not Desire, Desire HD, Desire Z...)
Could you post what first lines your bootloader is showing ?
from "SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL" to a date ?
Do you bought your phone with a carrier contract or bought it unbranded ?
You should download either this :
http://www.filefactory.com/file/cfd...22U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_219480_signed.exe -> 2.10.401.5 (Stock Desire S Sense 3 rom)
or this :
http://www.filefactory.com/file/cfd...5AU_3805.06.02.03_M_release_199410_signed.exe -> 1.47.401.4 (Stock WWE HTC Sense 2.1 ROM).
If you have a branded phone, these RUUs may don't work (CID error). Try and report back.

Hi Floatshow,
This unit is bought without any contract,
seach from google, it said this unit is from India.
it ready come with 2.31.720.2, refer below print screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and below is the screen that hang up at bootloader.
at RUU mode
at SD image update mode

you can try to s-off
http://revolutionary.io/
so you can flash a recovery and repair your phone without problems
(if you flash a ruu you will lose the new hboot and the recovery

Try pouring water on your phone. Also I heard a rumor that slowly waving a magnet around your computers hard drive 27 times, can fix any problem.

the 1.47 & 2.10 is failed.
CID error

That's weird... I don't know India versions.
So the India RUU failed when flashing Bootloader ? in fastboot ?
Can you boot into Android ?
Do you have custom recovery installed or stock one ?
In any case, just boot into recovery, and Wipe Data/factory reset.
Maybe you will be able to boot into android again.

Yup, will just hang up at bootloader flashing.
& now can't boot into Android OS.
The recovery is stock version,
have any method to flashing the recovery to custom recovery ?
tried Revolutionary, but this method need to run under charging mode, it seem like didn't working while the phone is hang in HTC screen.
any idea ?

Well you can try Wipe data/factory reset from stock recovery. As ruu didn't flashed system, data or anything, maybe android will boot...
And you can't use Revolutionary.
If factory reset doesn't work, your really last chance is to use xtc clip.
Or send it back for warranty purposes. Because with hboot-0.98, s-on, and unworking ruu, i don't think there's much choices.
So : xtc clip or warranty.
Sent from my Desire S with Virtuous Affinity

You should have a GoldCard for you to RUU to any version.
If your hboot is still the old S-ON, here is no way for you to flash a custom recovery.
You really won't be able to use revolutionary on your phone on that state.
In this case, your option is to upgrade the hboot (GoldCard might be needed) then unlock it then flash custom recovery. Use search for those.methods.
Hint! My second guide.
P.S
Before doing anything, you should learn and identify where you need to place your posts first.

Although the thread mentions Revolutionary, here are the step and instructions you are looking for. They will also worked when you unlock the HTC bootloader

I followed the guide but I get

After s-off with xtc clip use SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse.zip to root your phone (you will need adb drivers) ,then install Clockworkmod from android market .... afther that put .zip of your castum ROM on sd card... but Clockworkmod (vol down + Power ,choose recovery ) ....

Hi, superoneclick does not work.
Freezes.
I am on 2.3.3 GB maybe thats the problem?

Do you check adb drivers ,and connection with pc ???
Send me a screenshot

You can also use this it will root the phone for you

Ok, worked !!
The phone was in fastboot, must be in normal USB mode and then start the superclick .exe on the PC.
Phone is now rooted and superuser acces.
Now upgrade to 2.3.5 sense 3.0 Gingerbread.
First i will install 4EXT recovery + make nandroid back-up !

I assume that you know to not update OTA - you will loose the root this way and have a bootloop - see here Flash a prerooted ROM

Good you told me , almost forgot !!!!
Looking for a prerooted ROM close to 2.3.5 sense 3.0 GB.
Can you advise one ?
Leave hboot at 0.98.0002 or go to new ENGboot ?
grts

I would just leave the hboot alone. As for a ROM look around the development section, see what you like. They're all pretty stable.

noob CWD mistake

Ok, I need a little help. I wanted to flash Android Revolution HD 6.0.1(ICS 4.0.3) on my HTC Sensation (T-mobile USA). I was using this tutorial:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300. After I got S-Off to work I began to flash CWD. I made the mistake of copying the wrong PG58IMG.zip file over. Instead of CWD it was the updated ICS firmware. Now I'm stuck with HBOOT 1.23.0000, no CWD, no root. Where should I go from here? Should I try to fix the HBOOT or try to flash CWM another way. Do I need to use ADB? Here is a pic of what I'm working with.

Hi,
You could try to get hboot 1.17 HERE back on your phone.
Then try to finish the s-off process.

so how would I get HBOOT 1.17.0000 back on my phone since I get an error every time I try to flash it through a PG58IMG.zip file? Any links to tutorials I missed?

Hi,
Place the 1.17 PG58IMG.zip on the root of your sd card using a card reader.
Make sure you do a MD5 checksum of the zip(google it)
Power down the phone,or remove the battery.
Power on holding down volume - and power button.
Let the update go through.
When it finishes,go back in to ROM and delete the PG58IMG.zip.
If you cannot get into ROM,remove the card and use card reader in PC.
You should then be able to carry on "Revolutionary".

Ooo you should be s-off still even after your did IMG.zip
if you completed the s-off before the you flashed the ICS then your s-off should still be there it wont show but its there, if you can try then IMG.zip that has the hboot 1.17

I did that. I'm not that much a noob. That is the problem I was asking in the first place. I cannot update that way. It says "Update Fail" on the screen. Also, the phone is S-OFF, didn't even flash the rom yet. Thanks for your help so far.

Ok I see the picture cause its saying incorrect phone model there is a pdimg.zip that will put your cid to 11111 once that done you should be able to.use and pdimg.zip

Ok, so where would I find that?

Ok, I had to use HTC dev tools to unlock bootloader, then use adb tools to ensure cid was 11111111. Then flashed bootloader back to 1.17.0000. Thanks for the guidance. Was more rewarding to figure somethings out instead of being guided through every step.

It is not mentioned in the firmware topic, but it seems important to do SuperCID before flashing the new firmware in case of problems. I've seen this problem elsewhere on this forum.
But it's nice to know that there is still a solution even if you do not have SuperCID.

if you want to flash a rom you should first get your phone s-off with revolutionairy
just download the program, let it do what it has to and then let it flash clockworkmod recovery
then you can put the .zip of your rom on your sd card and flash it with the "install zip from sdcard" option in clockworkmod

I cannot get the PC connect to the phone as the driver that I have is no more compatible. I can't reflash with another version

Yeah, more info please, i have no idea what you did to your phone so give details.
It's pretty silly thinking someone can help you if you don't give details of your phone currently and every thing you did you it.
