[Q] Re: Flashing Splash Screens (I searched first)

Hi everyone. I've searched for an answer to my problem, but haven't found anyone with exactly the same issues I've been having loading a custom splash screen onto my phone. I'm currently running the Revolution 4G ROM. I've tried the "flasher" program, I've used the appropriate adb commands, and I've even tried an alternative method of loading the splash1 image file into the data folder of the flasher program before using, all to no avail. Flasher says its working, but on reboot, the same old white HTC screen pops up. When I go the command prompt route, I get the following message: FAILED <remote not allowed>. I am 100% certain that I am rooted and S-off, I have full access to all of my programs requiring root and I'm getting the appropriate notifications re: S-off. So what does this mean, and what should I do?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to flash the Engineering HBoot first.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.p...Flashing_the_Engineering_HBoot_.28Optional.29

When you say you have S-Off, is it ENG S-Off? If not, that would be the problem.
If you followed something like hack-kit, you only have Radio S-Off.

Thanks so much, quick and easy!

[Q] Unrooting HTC sensation/RUU

Hey guys,
so a time ago the volume knob disappeared from my HTC sensation. So I searched the internet and it turned out that I wasn't the only one with this problem. So I can turn it in for garanty but first I have to unroot it.
So I started unrooting following this guide: [GUIDE]How to Remove Custom Recovery/Root/Hboot and Keep Stock S-Off/Stock S-ON*VIDEO
So first all steps went flawless, but then I got to the step where you have to type "adb devices" in the cmd but it didn't show my phone. After hours of searching and trying different stuff I finally got to install the drivers for my phone correctly, and it finally showed up in the list of devices.
Then the next step: "9. If it is recognized, then download your official RUU, please get the same/similar version that came with your phone."
My phone is running cyanogenmod7.1.0 alpha 10 or something, and it's provider is Vodafone NL. So i didn't have a clue what RUU to download or where I could van these. Finally i found the following threat: [ROM]Shipped Pyramid ROM Collection.
As it didn't have a Vodafone NL RUU I downloaded the one for Vodafone UK.
Then I just tried it and first it reboots to the black HTC screen, and after a while I get the 171 Error. I tried almost anything but couldn't find what was wrong. And that's why I made this treath.
What I tried:
- Take out battery, start all over. Error 171 again.
- Leave phone on black HTC screen, run RUU again. Error 170.
- Run RUU in compatibality mode, all the same.
I have no clues what i'm doing wrong, the only thing I can think of is that I didn't turn off Fast Boot on my phone, but I can't find where I can do that. On the cyanogenmod wiki it says:
"Disable fastboot on the HTC Sensation (Settings » Power » Fastboot) or (Settings » Applications » Fastboot)"
But on my phone there is no Power menu in my settings, and in the applications meny there is no option to disable fastboot.
Anyone else experienced this problem before?
Thank you very, very much in advance, and I hope I didn't break any of the forum rules as this is my first post.
Greetings,
Frank

He took most of that tutorial of the one in my main thread, and doesn't have a solution for my problem. Thanks for the reply though.

Thank you, didn't see that thread before! Too bad I don't have time right now so I'll try it another time. But that might indeed fix it

[Q] soft brick incredibly htc incredible 2 verizon cant run adb in promt to get s-off

ood night, i´m really happy to join this big comunity;
My question is this... severals weeks ago, i got an incredible 2 in verizon (in from Mexico City), i tried to unlock to use it with the mexican carriers, but I thought i would be a good idea to root it and get a nice rom.
I use the fastboot way, but, i forgot to make a backup to the original ruu, so i can not be able to follow as the procedure said.
I've been stuck for a several weeks trying to solve this, reading this and another android (mostly htc foums).
the i got this link from android forums (i´m a new user so i cant post links i can share by inbox ) but my i understand that the adb only can be run in the "normal" mode, i mean without the phone bricked, in this point i got my mobile with this..

i have the recovery clockwork 5.0.2.0 vivow
i know that i cant do too much with the S-ON, neither cant boot any rom, and i tried with fastboot, but the adb command "adb devices" doesnt recognize the phone, the fastboot command is actually working , so i cant do anything though.
i´m not an expert, i spent all these days on google before asking directly in any forum, but i ran out of ideas (and forum theads), i´m just beging a couple of hints.
Thanks for your time and redards from México.

I tryed to flash a custom rom on my droid incredible 2 but i wasn't aware that i needed to unlock s-on to S-off mode, note my phone won't boot. I can run recovery and fastboot. But my phone won't boot, so i can't access adb to install revolutionary to change to s-off. Need help here to. Is there any way to get S-off without adb access?

[Q] HTC One SV Fastboot & Recovery Error [NOT SOLVED]

Hi guys I have An HTC SV One and was tired of the restrictions of abilities that I have by default, so I decided that I was going to root my device so that I could do more things that I would like to do that can only be done with a rooted phone. My warranty is up so I figured what the hey. I've successfully rooted My HP Touchpad in the past & wasn't exactly unfamiliar with this type of thing, but seeing as how these types of processes may differ with each new device I decided to go ahead and look up a TUT on how exactly to go about this. I did a bit of searching and began by Following a TUT titled:
"How to Unlock the HTC One Bootloader [All Models]" -By QBKING77
Possted Here: http :// qbking77. c o m /development/how-to-unlock-the-htc-one-bootloader/
(REMOVE SPACES)
All went well, so I moved on to the next step which is to actually root my device following this TUT titled:
"How to Root the HTC One (International, Sprint, AT&T, T-Mobile)" -By QBKING77
Posted Here: http :// qbking77. c o m /development/how-to-root-the-htc-one-international-sprint-att/
(REMOVE SPACES)
Everything was going according to plan up until I got to the step for going into the recovery. When I select recovery my phone says "Entering Recovery" (it stays there for about 20 seconds) and then reboots just like in the video. So I do like he does in the video and when I re enter HBOOT it shows ***Tampered*** & ***Unlocked*** just like his phone does in the video, but when I try to then enter recovery it does the same thing. After searching around for some kind of solution I decided to plug my phone back into my pc to try some of the things I'v seen suggested online but when I put in any of the Flashboot commands I get this message.
"error: neither -p product specified nor ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT set"
& this is where I am stuck. I need to know how I can fix this & get into my recovery to continue. I can still use my device as normal but I am unable to enter into recovery to get to TWRP & actually Root my device.
I hope that somebody here at xda-developers can help me with my issue. Thank you for your time.
~ UBT, Thanks
************************UPDATE***************************
I discovered that part of this was my non attention to detail (I believe anyway). I think that I might have been typing in "Flashboot" instead of obviously "Fastboot" in my haste, but I still am unable to enter into recovery.

HTC One SV just starting to recovery/bootloader

Hello everyone,
I've got a few HTC One SV devices in front of me, which got the "Robot Voice Bug". Since that is a problem of the 4.2.2 Android I decided to "downgrade" them to a previous Version.
To do this I have to S-Off the devices, which is the step I so far failed to do.
I am not at home and only got a Win10 laptop available with an antiX Live-USB stick.
After installing VenomSV 1.5 on the first device (K2_UL) I decided to give it a try and used mooonshine to S-Off it.
It did go through the testing but got stuck at moonshining (ERROR: Don't drink and shine (if I remember correctly, it tried to moonshine 10 times and stopped afterwards)).
Now it is just booting to the Quietly Brilliant screen with the red text underneath.
But I am still able to get into the TWRP Recovery. I tried to wipe it and install VenomSV again, but without effect (I can go through the installation until I have to restart).
I've also got a TWRP backup of the stock system, but TWWRP doesn't recognize it.
Is there any chance for reviving this device?
And even if not:
Is there a way to downgrade without S-Off? Or maybe a hint what could have gone wrong moonlighting the device?
Some system information:
K2_UL PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.01.0000
RADIO-0.12.40.00.14_2
If you do need any more information feel free to ask.
Thank you in advance for any answer,
