Removing revolutionary

Does anyone know how to remove revolutionary and revert back to stock. Im running a HTC Senation xe? I get error code error 155 unknown error. Using the RUU

You mean the hboot? I would try to zip
Code:
hboot_8x60_1.18.0000_20110802_signedbyaa.nb0
android-info.txt
from
Code:
RUU_Pyramid_LE_HTC_Europe_1.73.401.4_Radio_10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2_release_220036_signed
Rename the package to
Code:
PG58IMG.zip
and copy it into your storagecard root. Enter the bootloader. Follow the on screen instructions.
In case this won't work, change your CID to SuperCID or edit android-info.txt to allow your CID (but I guess you're on XE so CID shouldn't be a problem)

So what your saying is if the RUU.exe file doesnt work. rename it to PG58IMG.zip and put it on the sd card?

Ach, no, no. You need to extract the exe file.
The easiest method to do this is to run the exe and don't click "next" or whatever the installer is saying. Just keep the installer open and search your C:\ drive for rom.zip.
Extract the file as you would do with a normal archive.
Now you need to zip only this two files:
Code:
hboot_8x60_1.18.0000_20110802_signedbyaa.nb0
android-info.txt
Name the archive PG58IMG.zip

I cant seem to figure out how to do the first bit. Extracting the RUU from the exe archive?

I'll try to be a little more detailed
So when you start the installation RUU the program itself creates temporary files on your computer. One of those files is rom.zip. The problem is that the directory is generated randomly.
It's something like that:
Code:
C:\Users\localhost\AppData\Local\Temp\{88F1C5DF-C107-4939-9651-18615BAD254B}\{50F2F878-636A-496F-A7CB-544C067E0C4B}\rom.zip
(for Windows 7 and user name "localhost")
The problem is that the installation app removes those temporary files if you successfully flash the firmware, cancel the update or terminate the process. So I suggest that you run the exe and search the whole C:\ drive for a file called rom.zip. It contains the files you need to extract. It's not possible to extract the exe in any other method as far as I know.

maybe Im doing something wrong but I cant find the rom.zip file. Im running windows vista.

Try this:
Start the RUU exe file. When the Update program appears click on "View ReadMe".
If you got Office installed Word should popup.
Click on "File -> Save As" (or something similar on your PC). Check the directory on top. Please find attached the screenshot with shows where to find the path to rom.zip.

downloadlink: PG88IMG_based_on_RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1.zip
just rename it to "RG88IMG.zip" and put it on the root of your sd card.
then reboot into fastboot mode (bootloader) and the rest will be done automaticly.
you can extract that zip file to modify the system image to get root e.g.
search the forums to get it out how.

Thanks for the reply but that's only radio and I need ROM a full install from sdcard And also does not need to do s-off

OP says you need pg88img.
That's not a ROM
Which ROM do you need? didn't searching the forum solve you're problem?
You have to state clearly what you want or need

Whatever may be the reason that you need this (?) here is how to get it yourself:
Download RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.080 5U_38.03.02.11_M_release from the sticky Stock ROMs thread.
Run the RUU on your PC.
On the first screen (do not press anything when it starts) open your Windows Explorer, browse to the C: drive and in the search field type rom.zip.
Wait for the search to complete and copy the rom.zip file to another loacation.
Close the RUU setup.
Rename the rom.zip (this is exactly what are you looking for) to PG88IMG.zip and copy to SDCard.

Yeah you are thinking about the rom.zip of the RUU which is renamed to that. So follow what amidabuddha said!

Thank you very much this is exactly what i look for.
thanks for all

Can you still boot into bootloader? If so, you can try this:
Download an RUU
1. You now need to pick the RUU you wish to flash, a good source is this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1074559
2. Once you have downloaded the RUU you would like to flash, run it (it can take a while to load), and stop when you get the welcome screen, which has a picture of a Sensation on the left and a red caution notice on the right.
3. Move this window out of the way (it forces itself into foreground), then open up windows explorer and go to:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Temp
4. Then sort by Date Modified. Find the newest folder with a long random sequence of numbers as its name, go in here and you should see, three files and a folder: corecomp, dotnetinstaller, IBSEW64. (the files may be different on 32-bit OS), now go into the folder which has another long random name.
In there amongst a lot of files (use search if you need to), you will find rom.zip. This is the rom we want to flash!
5. Copy the rom.zip file to the root of your SD Card
(i.e. if your on Windows, X:/ [where X is the letter of your Sensation's SD Card])
6. Rename the rom.zip you just put on your SD Card, to PG58IMG.zip (ensure you do not rename it to PG58IMG.zip.zip or it wont work!)
7. Find the "HTC Android ROM Update Utility" Window, and hit Cancel.

[Q] Remove root and tampered banner to return

I'd like to remove root and go back to stock. I have a rogers one x and I've tried using the rogers RUU PJ83IMG.... to flash back to stock, but I can't use fastboot since my phone is bootloader locked, and I can't run the RUU because it is a .zip file and not a .exe. Renaming it to an .exe and running it does nothing.
Any help is appreciated!

Try un-zipping the file and run the exe in the folder created. Also, since we do not have s-off yet, we are able to remove tampered banner, but it will say re-locked. No estimated arrival of s-off at this point.

This. The RUU file is not meant to be run as-is. Unzip the contents onto your PC (such as into a folder on your PC desktop), then run the .exe that is inside the extracted contents.
And where did you get the idea of changing the extension from .zip to .exe? That's probably a bad idea in almost all circumstances. You can't just change the type of file by renaming it.

The "tampered" flag will be removed after RUU. Tampered flag is for root, not BL unlock. And the OP said he is still BL locked.

when you flashed it did you get an error 155 or an error 140?
also THIS is the RUU you need http://www.filefactory.com/file/9qe....09.06_10.81.32.14L_release_254934_signed.zip

And you didn't mess with the CID ever? If not, I don't see any reason why the correct (Rogers) RUU would not work. Make sure HTC Sync is installed (maybe re-install, just to be safe), reboot the computer and try again. Perhaps try to download the RUU again, just to make sure the download isn't corrupt.

Ohh, you're right! I changed the Cid to 1111111.. For supercid. How do I change that back?
As for the ruu, I can't run them because I have no exercise file to run. Changing the zip to an exercise gives me an error about my computer not being able to run it. I will download the above ruu and try it when I get home in an hr.
Thanks for your help!

You should be able to run the Rogers RUU with SuperCID. That's what SuperCID is, it lets you install firmware regardless of the CID that its intended for.
Not sure how to change the CID back to Rogers. Look on the SuperCID thread (not the one-click method, but the original "longer" method) and see if there is discussion on changing it back.
And to reiterate, you can't magically change a file from one type to another, just by changing the file extension from .zip to .exe. The RUU package should have ARUWIzard.exe inside once you unzip it. Are you sure you are unzipping it properly?

The problem is the rogers file isn't an EXE it's a zip file. There's a post somewhere around here explainng how to install it.

Ahh, I see the problem. The Rogers files is not a true RUU package, just the zip file usually contained in the "larger" RUU zip file. Is that right? The OP still can't change the file extension to .exe and make it run that way. Sounds like from the thread the OP linked in post 4 above, he needs to have a folder with the "other" RUU contents (including ARUWizard.exe), drop the file you linked (from Filefactory), then run the ARUWizard. Its not completely clear, but this seems to be the way?

He could also I thing just put that pdimg. Zip file on the SD card and boots into recovery and it should flash right?

Not sure. I've never in my life flashed anything from stock recovery
But it seems logical. I think normally the ARUWizard says its pushing the file to the phone, so it would make sense it just flashes from stock recovery.

I understand that I can't change the filetype like that . I just saw peterhtc mention having to do that in another thread. I am sure i have unzipped it properly. I'll try again with the other ruu linked above.

if you unzip it and see a zip file that starts with pd and some number I THINK it's 83 put that file on the root of your SD card space and reboot to bootloader. Then choose recovery. If all goes well it will detect that file and allow you to flash it. It should work fine because it's a signed zip from HTC.

Haha well no not exactly. I have been dealing with rogers for 2 months trying to return the phone I bought outright in order to get a new one on a plan. I originally wanted to see how the SG3 was so I could still return the onex in time to pick that up, but I think i'll be sticking with the HTC (the sg3 is SO ugly).

So I tried to place the full zip file onto the phone in the main directory, both as the full file name and then just as the P83..etc name, rebooted into recovery, but I just got a pic of the phone with a red triangle+ exclamation mark. Currently I am extracting the whole zip onto the main directory and will try flashing recovery like this. Is that safe? I assume the phone will be able to tell which .img it needs. There is no file that begins with P83 in the actual zip

[Q] Please help me step by step for a custom ROM?

Hi guys,
I really need help on this, and i am hoping very much someone can be patient with me as i try to install a custom ROM on my HTC Desire S.
The BIGGEST problem i am facing is getting command text correct in the command window, i am using Windows 7 home premium on a laptop, the previous posts i read and followed were all saying put this in the command and put that in the command but none of them were correct and my computer kept saying wrong!
I am currently at the stage where i have visited HTC Dev and i have sucessfully gone through the procedure for unlocking the bootloader, i found this difficult to do, command prompts they gave were wrong i had to change paths, and i was missing certain .dll files on my computer too, which HTC did not mention i would need, but here i am after days of messing about and trying all sorts of commands, with a unlocked bootloader, with S-ON and running a Vodafone stock rom of Gingerbread Android version 2.5.3.
My phone is Vodafone branded i wish to remove all of their branding and apps, and install a plain unbranded ROM.
However, i need step by step instruction, i can not do this from threads that say "follow this here (link to another thread) which then links to another and another, i ended up with i think 15 tabs in the browser open, with conflicting advice, conflicting information, mistakes, and a whole lot of jargon that i did not understand, so what i really am hoping for is firstly links to all the software or downloads that i will need first, direct link to the rom, the backup, and anything else, if anyone needs info from my phone to pinpoint a specific rom i am happy to give it, i do not mind another HTC rom as long as its plain with no carrier apps or branding on it, then once i have got all the downloads sorted out i can start from there.
Please help me out i have been at this for days and getting nothing except confused.
Many thanks! :good:

I have found this quite up to date guide which is very easy to follow, are the rom and all the downloads OK for a UK phone?
I have hboot 200. 0002 as well as S-ON so i believe its the same, i can follow this one quite easy is it ok to do??
Also, while flashing this rom and recovery image, should i have SDK tools open on my computer??
And another thing, i noticed while extracting the recovery image that it just says recovery, should i rename it to recovery.img or leave it as it is? Because the command prompts are saying "recovery.img" and not just "recovery"?????

First you need to get in Folder Options in your WIN 7 Control Panel.There's option in View tab called " Hide extension for known file types". Uncheck that option and click ok.Then you will see extensions for all files on you win 7.This will show you extension of recovery.Should be .img.
Then you can follow that guide.I used the same one.
You need to get newest recovery.There are TWRP and 4ext for HTC Desire S.They are up to date.Do a little search and read posts and info.
Check post about panels (Hitachi or Sony)http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943524.Again search for that in HTC Desire S forum here.When you check all of that you can try any custom ROM but always backup nandroid.
Little hint : If you want to start CMD window in any folder first open that folder hold SHIFT and right click on empty space.You will get command there named Open command window here.Click on that and you can work.

OK i have a question straight away, it says in the tutorial:
Copy the rom onto the SD card, then it says copy the boot.img onto the android C folder - SO -
Do i first extract the boot.img and copy it to the C android folder AND copy the same boot.img onto my SD card, as well as the meta info and other stuff?
OR do i copy the boot.img onto the C drive only, and copy everything else onto the SD card?
A little confused here on what to do.
Thanks for any help.

You do exactly that. You place the rom into the sd card, and you copy the boot.img into the said folder.
This is because you are "unlock s-on", the recovery isn't able to flash the boot.img, so you have to do it manually.
Remember, even after you flash the rom, if you did not flash the boot.img the phone will NOT fully boot.
*also, the guide says to turn the phone off after flashing the rom and boot into the bootloader. I dont think this is necessary, you can just reboot the phone into bootloader from the recovery itself.

So, just to clarify, i copy the whole .zip onto the SD card (including boot.img) and then re copy the boot.img into my Android folder on the computer (i will then have boot.img on BOTH the SD card and the C Android folder, this is where i am getting confused, i intend to start flashing today sometime.

You can try other roms when you try that.There's a lot of nice and smooth editions. First try reaper you have it now.
With S-ON you have to flash boot.img in fastboot after you install rom from recovery.That's why you need to copy it in android-tools folder.Whole zip goes on sd and you backup old rom from recovery, wipe everything except sd (wipe is recommended) and then install from zip in recovery.After that reboot in bootloader then flash boot.img from fastboot.Reboot and wait.Should be in in few min.No more then 10.Follow the guide.

jmcclue means you need to download gapps for your android.That will be in zip and you install it through recovery just like rom.Most of custom rom require that step.Copy zip on SD,boot in recovery and flash from zip.Reboot and you will get google apps.
This guide is for HTC Desire S and you can find most of things you need but for roms follow Android Development in HTC Desire S on XDA.

fastboot is controlled by the bootloader, the rom can't affect it in any way. The option "fast boot" in HTC Sense roms is something else, that sort of hibernates the phone instead of powering off, so the phone "boots fast".

Thanks guys i will go aheah and do these
