[Q] Gingerbread install stuck at MAGLDRv1.11 bootloader - General Questions and Answers

My problem so far is that i was able to perform MAGLDR repartition using hd2 toolkit, but i forgot to upgrade the MAGLDR1.11 to 1.13. Now, I am stuck at the bootloader menu, without the option to get into AD Recovery as version 1.13 of MAGLDR would allow me to. How do I uninstall the MAGLDR1.11 or what would I have to do to finish the installation of GINGERBREAD?

You'll get a better response in (gasp) the HD2 section of the forum.

[Q] HTC Desire Rom Loading Issues

Hi
I have taken the step to root my desire handset using Unrevoked3 but have now come to the start of my problems.
I have downloaded many roms and tried to load them to the phone using the step by step methods posted with each rom, the phone fails to load any of the new roms I have downloaded and is dissplaying the following messages each time:
E:signature lengh doesn't match Eoco marker
E:signature verification failed
installation aborted
Bad
My phone details are as follows:
Firmware: 2.1-update 1
Kernal: 23.44.00.32u_5.09.0530_2 ~ [email protected] 18-2#1
Build: 1.15.405.4 CL155070 release-keys
HBoot: 0.80.0000
Radio: 5.09.05.30_2
If anyone is able to offer any help it would be most helpfull.
If I wanted to unroot the phone and return it to a stock HTC build can I just install the Android 2.2 software update? I have tried to load a pre Froyo upadate but because the Hboot version on my phone is 0.80 it fails to install because you can't for some reason downgrade the Hboot.
The Froyo update has a Hboot of 0.90 so is it ok to download and install this to return the phone to stock HTC OS?

I'm new to rooting so please bare with me, the recovery is clockwork I beleave? it's the recovery system installed by Unrevoked3.
I can confirm I have super user permissions and the rooting completed ok with the unrevoked 3 software.
I don't think I'm technically inclinded enough to get to grips with running roms and messing about with rooting.
If you don't mind helping with easy to follow tips it would be most appreciated.
I think if it's possible to return my phone to stock HTC software it would better, I should have looked into the loading roms side of the rooting before jumping in to messing about with the phone.

I have tried that I'm sorry to say and the flash still fails to install? I must be doing something wrong, I can't beleave that all the Rom's I havetried to install fail.
I don't really know what to do next, I have even been in contact with HTC about returning the phone and have them reflash the origional software
The phone was on Orange uk but I ended up getting a code to unlock it, the next thing that bugged me was the pre installed software that Orange install as part of the os hence the rooting to debrand, now I can't even get any room to flash to the rooted phone.
Have you already downloaded rom manager from the market to make an ext on sd card? Or have you tried to load in amon ra recovery?

When loading the roms all I have done is copy them right onto the memory card and then used clockworkmod to try to install the update rom?
I didn't know you needed to make an ext [partition]?? on the sd card?
I did install rom manager .. but wasn't aware what the software is supposed to be used for?
I don't now what amon ra is or how you use it?
I hope I can get the phone to except thr loading of custom roms I like the idea of being able to totally control what software is installed to the phone and also giving some of the really good looking Roms listed on Xda a try.
Thank you for your help

[HOW TO] Update Perfect SPL without Gold card

How to fix perfect SPL without Gold card. Include new 1.33.2013 SPL.
It’s possible to flash engineering SPLs, to replace your prefect SPL (1.33.2006, 1.33.2010, 1.33.2013, other) without Gold card. I did it on my 32B, sure method will work on 32A and other devices.
First short idea, then in steps.
First root your phone (soft root), then through Market download ROM Manager app, install Clockwork (or alternate Amon_RA) recovery, and immediately press boot into recovery. Phone will reboot into recovery, and now you can flash engineering SPL from SD card.
Now by steps
1. Download Engineering SPL from Amon_RA collection here. Put it (zip file) to your FAT32 formatted SD card. (1.33.2005 is common working)
2. Download newest version of SuperOneClick rooting program from here. Install program to your PC.
3. Connect phone, run program and use button Shell Root. This will soft root your phone. (Please read details instructions in program topic).
4. From phone, through Market, install 'ROM Manager' application. (Internet connection required).
5. Run app, press install Clockwork (or alternate Amon_RA) recovery. App will download latest recovery and install it. Immediately press boot to recovery.
6. Phone will boot into recovery, choose 'flash zip from SD' and choose your previously downloaded Engineering SPL.
7. After flash will ask to reboot, and choose reboot from menu.
8. After reboot phone will finish flashing SPL, and DONE!
NOW U can reboot into recovery yourself, by pressing 'HOME' + 'POWER' keys (from switched off phone). From recovery U can flash Radio, ROMS, do backup, etc.
If U would flash ROM, recommend to try Cyanogen MOD ROM first. There are detailed instructions for flashing on Cyanogen WIKI page.
If on step 6 phone not boot into Recovery, but showing splash screen with '!' sigh. Reboot phone and back to step 3 and go through steps again, but on step 5 flash OTHER recovery then used previously (Clockwork OR Amon_ra). Please keep in mind, (1) that Soft Root working until reboot, and (2) that You have to reboot into recovery immediately after flashing it. Other ways U have to start again, from step 3.
Would mention, that most ROMs not working with newest radio, and You have to flash old radio to ROMs start loading on your device.
Thanks to CLShortFuse, Amon_RA and all other developers.
After spending one day for SPL hack and flashing 12 different ROMs I've ended with recovering original latest Google ROM FR83D. Because no other could compare to fast and stable of original unrooted rom.
AMAZING!
This worked for me with the 2010 SPL for my MyTouch 3G 1.2. I don't know how or why, but this is amazing. I've bricked my phone from trying to change the SPL, and this worked perfectly. I think there is a simpler method to this though.
I got full root using Universal Androot, then flashed the stock +Rooted MyTouch 3G 1.2 ROM. If you do this, then you can start from step 6.
THIS IS AMAZING. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
when i flash the recovery and boot into it just goes to the green mytouch splash screen and does nothing.. if i try to boot into recovery manually with power and home it goes to the black screen with the exclamation triangle and a phone...
Thanks, it works with me.
Regards.

So I tried flashing a new SPL following this method. I got softroot and installed Amon Ra's recovery via ROM Manager. I then booted into recovery and flashed Engineering SPL 1.33.2010 (seemed like the newest version) now my phone is stuck in a boot loop.
I can get into recovery but the phone will not boot into the OS or anything.
Prior to this, my HBOOT was 1.33.0013 (the one that came with the official 2.2.1 update from T-Mobile)
Any thoughts on how I could fix this? This isn't my primary phone since I have a G2 but I would like to get my old MyTouch3G to work.
----UPDATE----
I got into fastboot (forgot that I needed to hold the back button) and I see that HBOOT is now 1.33.2010 and I have S-OFF. Is there some incompatibility with my radio (shows 2.22.29.25) and this HBOOT?
After SPL flash U have to flash ROM and some times radio too. New ROMs will not work with older SPLs and new radios some time not work with some ROMs. So, flash new ROM from Recovery.
I would recommend to flash Cyanogen MOD ROM for first try. There are detailed instructions for flashing on Cyanogen WIKI page? dont flash SPL, because U already did, start from step ROM flash.
Good luck

Can't install nand Android on HD2 Telstra (Australia)

I've installed for many different HD2, it's also OK. But when I intend to install Nandroid on HD2 Telstra It have a problem.

2. Boot loader 1.13 MAGLDR113 is installed OK
3. Recovery is installed OK
4. Flash ROM Dorimanx ver 2.8.0.7. It run faster than ever and also inform that instalation is OK. But when reboot, It can't boot on to Android. It stop at 12345 Go Go Go!!! screen.
I've tried flash Radio with 2.15.50.xx but everything the same.
This problem only appear on HD2 of Telstra Operator, these other device are installed without any problem.
Anyone have some Ideas pls!

Sounds like you've done everything right, try the link in my signature. Flash an official RUU and start from the beginning. That should iron out any issues leftover from your previous attempts. I assure you, the Telstra version is no harder to install to than any other.
Good luck!

Unable to update ClockworkMod Recovery on HTC Desire to latest version

I have a HTC Desire, which I rooted using Unrevoked.
This updated my recovery to ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7 - which was great and I was able to backup/restore/apply new roms. Also ROM Manager worked and I could use that application to access the recovery modes/scripts.
ROM Manager then got updated, including the ClockworkMod (5.0.2.0). Now ROM Manager fails to run any of the scripts when starting in recovery mode.
When I manually boot in to recovery, I am still on the 2.5.0.7 version and not the latest. I've tried applying the 5.0.2.0 update - which updates for that boot, but on a reboot reverts back to 2.5.0.7.
So, my questions are;
- To update my recovery program do I need S-OFF? Currently still have S-ON.
- If S-OFF, will a simple 'apply update from sdcard' update it?
Thanks, A
----------------------------------------------------
HTC Desire (Bravo) - ICS 4.0.3 CM9, b0.2.5 ROM.
Samsung Galaxy 10.1 - Stock ROM.
I have S-ON on my Hero and I always updated my recovery. I don't think it would be a problem.
Don't use rom manager. Just copy the file to your SD and flash it manually trough recovery (flash/install zip from SD), it should work.
Thanks.
but.... nope! It's stuck on ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7! As I said I can flash it to 5.0.2.0 and use it, but next time I enter recovery it's back to 2.5.0.7!
If it's not S-ON that's causing it, could it because I rooted with Unrevoked? Some how that's locked it to 2.5.0.7?
Thanks, A
----------------------------------------------------
HTC Desire (Bravo) - ICS 4.0.3 CM9, b0.2.5 ROM.

It could be unrevocked, but not sure. I rooted a Desire owned by a friend but with S-OFF.
He never had any issue.

I have the same problem.
Some help?
Thanks
O.
same here...tried everything!
Same here.
Rom Manager fails. (says it's worked, but upon boot to recovery it's the same 2.5.0.7
Rom Toolbox just fails and admits it.
I tried following this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1608042 thread, and tried basically the same thing via the android-terminal as well. Every time it fails.
When trying via the terminal (android or adb) I get erase and write fails, and a run out of memory error. I would like to update CWM so that I can partition the SD using the phone.
Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks.
The Answer
Well I found the answer for me. My problem was that I still had S-On and had to get that to S-Off as apparently my phone (HTC Desire) has an advanced security feature put on by HTC that stops you writing to /System, which is a necessary location to write to to update CWM. I got S-Off by using revolutionary, which was pretty noob friendly despite the scary words on the page. (google for revolutionary s-off)
Revolutionary just requires the HBOOT version and the Serial Number of the phone, which you find under the battery. DLed the fastboot drivers as they recommended as well. Once I got S-Off, I was able to use Rom Manager to update the CWM to 5.0.2 or whatever the latest is now.
Hope this helps you as it did me.
PS I have previously tried re-running unrevoked whilst the phone had BCM ICS (CM9), which didn't work (error was "is your firmware too new?"). I then downgraded to CM 6, and tried again with unrevoked, but the Rom Manager still wouldn't upgrade CWM. I checked HBOOT and as suspected still had S-On...Revolutionary is your answer methinks
so which CWM RECOVERY is latest without S-OFF and with option to partition SD EXT2/3/4 etc? thanks.

[Q] HTC Evo Shift 4g help

Alright, I have looked and tried almost everything I could find to help me on this but nothing has worked yet, my problem is my screen gets stuck in the HTC boot screen and won't move any further, what I did to get it to this is I got my shift rooted though the htcdev site, but it is not s-off, I wanted to install a cyanogen mod, the 7.2 one on it, well i went to CWM and said install aborted so I tried to reboot my phone and now stuck, i can still get into the CWM recovery but nothing has helped yet,I have tried to push several boot.img files, and tried to downgrade to 2.2 and nothing...I am all up for ideas.
EDIT: I have done some tweaking with restoring my old back up and I have come to the conclusion that my /system folder is corrupt, i know a few ways to fix that but anyone one the best way and maybe a 2.3.4 system folder to use?
EDIT2: I replaced my system folder with one that i have and now it gets past the white htc screen but will loop the sprint 4g screens.
FIXED IT,\: what I did was I managed to RUU back to 2.2 through this thread, now I am on 2.2 and will continue to get an s-off root, thank you for all your help

Can you get into bootloader? If so, what is your hboot version and software version?
Just in case you don't know how, to get into bootloader, you need to power off or pull battery, then press and hold VolDown+Power until the white bootloader screen comes up
At the top it tells you the hboot version

When you went through HTC-Dev.com you did not Root the Device. All you can do at the site is Unlock the Bootloader. To resolve the issue you can try a Factory Data Restore in Bootloader, but you are going to lose all the current Data on the Device. It may or may not work. If it does not then, you may have to run an RUU. To do the Factory Restore pull the Battery on the device. Then put the Battery back in. Hold Volume Button down , now at the same time press the Power Button. It will boot into Bootloader. Once it is in Bootloader use the Volume Rockers to toggle Up, or Down. Then choose Factory Restore by pressing the Pwer Button. Since your not rooted that's your only option that I know of other than an RUU. If that does get you out of the White Screen I would suggest finding out your Android version. Then following the correct process to attain Full Root.
Maybe I was a bit unclear, I went though the htcdev site to unlock the bootloader, then i moved clockworkmod recovery instead of the stock recovery, i then installed superuser through Clockworkmod, so i had root though that, but not an s-off root, so I then installed ROM manager and thought the cyanogen 7.2 rom would be a cool one to have, I forgot it was not an s-off root, so i went ahead with downloading it though Rom manager and it prompted me to install the new rom, and brought me to clockworkmod recovery and said the install was aborted, and i rebooted and then it got stuck at the htc screen, I can get into bootloader and clockworkmod recovery, I have a backup of my stock rom on my computer and put it onto my sd card hoping i can restore to that one, but i get the md5 mismatch error, working on fixing that now.
I still believe that most of the issue is that you are not Fully Rooted. What version of Android where you on when you started ? The reason I ask is because the method you used is a bit unorthodox, so I doubt your Rooted. I would still suggest doing a factory Restore. But you can look HERE on how to fix the MD5 mismatch error.
Yeah, if you only unlocked bootloader, thats not a full root, you still have a ways to go
The best thing would be to just RUU and start over using VICODAN's method, which covers 2.2 all the way up to 2.3.4
Sent from my PG06100 using xda premium
The method i used for rooting was though this post, I got up to the step downgrading from 2.3.4 to 2.2 till about step 17 of the 2.3.4, I wasn't sure if it acutally downgraded to 2.2 because I am unable to check my version though the bootloader or clockworkmod recovery, so I most likely am still on 2.3.4

Ok so your defiantly not on 2.2 . The question is what version of 2.3.4 are you on ? Go into HBoot and go to System Info. What is the OS Ver. ? Have you tried doing a Factory Reset just to see if it will Boot back up ?

There is no system info tab in my hboot menu, but i believe i know what is wrong, somehow my /system folder got corrupt, so i have to replace my /system folder with a new one, i know a few methods but what is the best method to going about that with an s-on?

The only way I know how to do it would be using adb and just flashing all the images through that.
