Help And Hi

Yup i signed up as i have a problem, The phone model is s710 which im guessing by the looks of it is this one. Heres the problem, My brother gave me his htc phone with this rom file from this site on ,Dont ask me what one as i dont know but basicly it fails completly, its so slow its unbarable to use and near impossible. But i cant re do the rom to another one without the activesync drive for the phoneas he didnt give me the cd, Does any one know where i can get the driver.. I have the newest active sync installed.
Thatnks Tom2oo8
hey tom. try this when u have downloaded the rom u like, i assume u want a factory rom so download it from htc. or from the ftp here...
turn off your phone
press the camera button
plug the usb wire
be amazed by the 3-color screen
ok now your phone is recognized for flashing a rom.
You can get the active sync at download.microsoft.com go to the windows mobile section and you should find it!
If you also get the lastest active sync...divers are not necessary...couse it is detected as generic RNDIS by Windows...

[Q]S-Off failing to communicate with phone?

(I posted this in the guide to installing s-off etc etc but yeah I don't know if anyone's going to pay it any mind there :S If I was wrong to create this, I'm sorry ><)
Hi,
I keep getting a Communication interrupted error. I don't know if anyone else had this problem and can help me? I'm a n00b with this s-off thing and I triple checked with like 4 different websites to make sure I'm going the right way with this.
Doing this on Windows, I got the HTC driver, removed anything that would sync the phone to the computer, everything going well up until this point:
Zerging Root... this may take a minute or so..
Sending in Caroline...
Cleaning up...
Rebooting to fastboot...
Whien life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take back the lemons
Waiting for fastboot...
Rebooting to fastboot (again)...
Communications with phone unexpectedly interrupted. Try Again.
Press (almost) any key to exit.
What's wrong with it?
also:
I put on the USB Debugging, I turned off Fastboot, and yes, I checked - it is still S-ON *sad*
HTC Sensation 4G (pyramid-1.17.0008, Android: 2.3.3, ROM version: 1.29.531.2)
I have tried with the fastboot on as well
As for these troubleshooting methods, I've been through it over and over:
Revolutionary Hanging on "Method 3"
1. Make sure you have installed all the drivers from above.
2. Please Make Sure you have HTC Sync uninstalled and Droid Explorer uninstalled.
3. Install These Drivers HERE:
4. Basically anything and everything that will allow your phone or other phones to automatically connect or sync to your computer has to be uninstalled
5. Try another Computer or Factory Reset your device as a last resort.
I've tried 3 different computers (I have no access to anyone who has a Linux computer) I've factory resetted my phone twice + my SD card. I really don't know what else to do
I've tried it in Charge Mode, and HTC sync mode as well.
Can anyone help me? :S
you have to do it in charge mode, make sure fast boot is off, and here is the tricky part, ANY app that could sync with the fone, needs to be uninstalled.
for me Zune kept messing with the install cuz it kept trying to sync...
Also, make sure your HBOOT is compatible with the version of revo you are using
so try this:
1) uninstall itunes (and other apple device software), zune, and any htc software (plus the stock drivers)
2) reboot
3) clean the registry (regclean or something similar)
4) reboot
5) reinstall stock drivers then plug in the phone (charge only) and let the pc detect the hardware.
6) unplug the fone and reboot the pc
7) NOW try to S-OFF, should work, this is the process i had to take
Thanks, i tried everything you told me and it still won't work. I'm running out of ideas. Isn't there another method I could go through so I can just flash a custom rom. Lol...
if its unbranded, you can try the HTC method, but im not a fan of their approach to it...revo is much more user friendly in the long run...
also have you tried disconnecting all usb devices other than the keyboard, mouse and phone? also try doing a battery pull and leave it out for 10-15 seconds, and give it another shot
also, what ver of revo u using? the latest? and whats your hboot?
EDIT nm, saw your hboot etc in your first post long night at work
also, this may be a super stab in the dark, try another cable if you have one, just try to eliminate any possible issue
This exactly what I had with my Win7 tappy lappy. Its the "sucky usb stack".
Then I used a win xp 32 bit machine no problems.

yeah, apparently win7 is giving different users this problem, i used WinXP SP2 32bit with no issues
Yup. Definitely related to Win7 64 bit version for me. Although the user didn't report what version they were using.
It's also worth remembering that all USB ports aren't all the same.
I have to use the ports on the front of this particular 32 bit XP workstation for some operations and the ports on the back for other. Magldr for my HD2 never works on the front.....
Like Rev say in their FAQ... there's something about the USB stack on windows that sucks. Not surprising really when we're talking about interop between such dissimilar operating systems (Android vs MS Win). Its gonna be a headache sometimes.
I'm on Win 7 32 bit, when I tested Revolutionary my device wasn't detected at all.
Rebooted many times, installed drivers and did lots of things and still nothing.
I changed USB port, and it worked xD
Try different USB ports and another USB Cable in-case
Gd luck
Edit: Just found out that you tried 3 different computers... Sorry then, if I come up with anything I'll tell you
Edit 2: Can't he try it on Safe Mode? Maybe it would help?
safe mose wont work, the usb stack works even less at that point :/ go windows!
worst case scenario, get a liveCD of ubuntu and boot it from BIOS, thats the easiest alternative to trying on windows

I'm having the exact same problem as with the poster of this thread. I've tried a fresh install of xp sp3 via vmware on my macbook pro. I've also installed Ubuntu but can't even get the revolutionary.exe file to open. Linux is too foreign for me, can anyone help me with that?
I had to use HTC sync mode in order for it to work on Windows 7 64 bit.

listen to this, his situation was WAYYYYY worst than yours, and he got his fone working perfectly and S-OFF'd
By flashing, I assume you do mean using the revolutionary program? I will try this process a little later and will post results. Thank you
i also had this problem when i wanted to set my sensa s-off. i run the tool several times and i always got this error message. So then i plugged of the phone, plugged it on again and then the tool says my phone is already s-off.
i boot the phone into bootloader and yes, the phone was s-off, on top is the revolutionary text and the bootloader version is 1.17.1111

Need help updating my rooted HTC One S

Hi all,
I've had to root my HTC One S for school recently (yes, really), but now I can't install the update that's been released.
When I start the update my phone reboots and enters Clockwork..
I've been trying to unroot my phone, but there's a lot of (different) information out there, and I can't seem to put my finger on it.
For starters, I have no idea what RUU is and I have no idea which stock img I need, since their are more than 20 of them out there..
Can somebody please guide me through?
Thanks!
Tom
Edit: I can't seem to get a Android 1.0 USB driver working.. If I type adb devices it lists no devices.. I've tried like 5 different drivers but none are working.
Edit: My normal USB driver is working. ADB devices returns my device, but when I try to flash the recovery in normal mode, it just says 'waiting for device'.

Please Help - MTP USB Device

Just got a HTC One SV this afternoon for the missus. (I am a Note 2 owner) and part of the deal to get her away from wanting an iPhone 5 was to convince her Android was the way to go. Of all the phones she looked at, she chose the HTC One SV because of its size ...
Brought it home with the promise I would set it up like my phone for her and all would be good.
Proceeded to follow instructions found in the HTC One SV section of these forums on unlocking the bootloader and so forth.
What a complete and utter nightmare HTC put their customers through for a simple unlock! Went to their site, followed the instructions, joined, emailed, got my "token" <-- what a joke! and proceeded with the next set of instructions which was to place a TWRP img on the phone.
Next thing I know windows pops up and says Device driver was not successfully installed. ? MTP USB Device ...
This I dont get at all. When I first plugged the phone into the PC the forst thing Windows did was install the drivers. The phone popped up in windows and I could access the internal storage.
I've installed HTC Driver & SyncManager but still whenever the phone is plugged in I get the MTP error and no phone in windows. So how am I to finish setting up this phone now?
The only reason for this post is I am exhausted, I've been searching these forums and the net for an answer, and I'm completely at my wits end.
I have an unlocked HTC One SV which may as well be bricked if I can't access it via PC. Maybe I should of let her have that damn iPhone 5 after all ...
Massive props to Seanie280672 who helped me get a recovery.img onto the phone. Phew!
Missus won't be giving me any grief over not getting an iPhone 5
That said, even though I managed to somehow connect the phone to the PC, it is still not coming up in windows explorer, and upon connection of the phone (USB) to the PC, windows always throws up the message that the drivers are not installed?
Check device manager and there's the dreaded little yellow astrix next to the mobile device. Somethings amiss here ...
Thx for the help, muchly appreciated. :good:
Since JB all HTC devices are recognized on PC as MTP device. Previous used UMS was kicked out.
Install the latest version of htc driver
I'm in Australia so I got the drivers from HTC.au site:
http://www.htc.com/au/support/news.aspx?p_id=537&p_name=htc-one-sv
The driver file is called setup_2.1.55.0_htc
Is this the latest or is there a different driver I should be using?

have u tried to enable usb debugging? Go to settings > developer options
If your driver is including HTC Sync, you should be fine.
You can uninstall Sync afterwards, driver for the phone will still remain.
Strangely deleting Sync did the trick. Plug in the phone and no pop ups saying drivers are not installed. Phone is now showing up in My Computer.
Yup, not the first time, Sync makes the problem.
