[Q] HBoot 2.00.0002, unlocked, S-ON and recovery destroyed ! - HTC Desire S

Hello guys,
My recovery doesn't work anymore : I get stuck on the HTC logo.
Apart from that, my phone is fine : the bootloader works and I can boot my phone in normal mode.
Me being stupid, I unlocked my phone with HTCDev and though that was enough to get the phone S-OFF.
So I flash a 4ext recovery image without doing any backup (another rookie mistake). And since, I cannot launch the recovery.
The hboot is 2.00.0002, and I still have the original unrooted 3.0 Sense ROM.
I don't want to go on tinkering with my phone (ie rooting, S-OFF and install a custom rom) until I fixed the recovery.
So I have the following questions :
1) what I can do to restore/fix my recovery ?
2) do you have a backup recovery image for a French Orange HTC Desire S ?
3) what procedure should I follow to backup my phone NOW (boot, recovery, data, rom, etc...) ?
Thanks for your help,
Deckard

Flash in fastboot recovery.img

download the 4EXTRecovery_v2.1.0_saga.zip package here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1130004
rename it to PG88IMG.zip
put that file on the root of your sd card
start you phone in bootloader (hboot not fastboot)
the bootloader will ask you if you want to install recovery.img
confrim
reboot
rename the file again into something else or delete it (cause bootloader will always try to flash if a PG88IMG.zip file is on your sd card every time you boot into it)

If you are rooted, the easiest solution to get a working recovery, one that doesn't involve fastboot, hboot, multiple restarts, adb etc, is to simply download the recovery updater app (free) from 4ext.net and use the app to download and flash your new recovery (4EXT Recovery) without any reboots or jumping through hoops!!
Hope you get what you want... you have all the possible solutions now (see posts above)

The OP stated that he has HBOOT 2.00.0002 and stock, unrooted 2.3.5/Sense 3.0 ROM, so your solution will not work for him.
He will need to flash a recovery.img using fastboot.

Thanks for your answer, korenisko
The truth is that I nicked my recovery using that particular command
(fastboot flash recovery recovery.img).
I tried to flash 4ext 1.0.0.3b9.
So, I'm a little wary of it right now.
I didn't understand why it failed. Is it because my phone wasn't S-OFF ?
Because I weren't root (as far as I know, it shouldn't matter) ?
Because the downloaded file was corrupted (the zip seemed valid, though) ?
Because I unlocked my phone through htcdev ?
Do you have any idea ?
Anyway, for the time being, I am a little puzzled. And uncomfortable.
I don't want to messed up again.
I guess, I don't risk anything trying to flash another recovery....
Maybe the stable version 4ext...

Thanks for your suggestion !
Don't I need my phone to be S-OFF before I can do what you are suggesting ?

To flash this do we have to be in any earlier version?
Bcoz i tried flashing but its stuck in boot animation.
I DId al wiping(data,cache,dalvik) ..
Did fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot.
But still the problem remains..
Any suggestions
Thanks
If you do a full wipe before flashing it's not relevant which ROM or version you are coming from. Maybe you have wrong hboot.
Is your device s-off?
Sent from my Desire S using XDA App
no mine in still S-ON thru htcdev but rooted,using cm7.1..wanna try best ROM based on sense UI...hence wanted to flash...now i have observed one thing whichever the ROM i flash it its not happening...it stays in boot animation..earlier i tried CM7.1,MIUI WP7 ...My hboot version is 2.00.002
Unlocking thru htcdev allows to flash a ROM with stock kernel only. For freeful flash-rom-manipulating S-Off is needed. Try flashing any ROM with non-stock kernel led me only to the screen with HTC logo.

With HTCDev unlock you have to flash the kernel separately.
Which means:
1) open WhateverROMyouHaveDownloaded.zip
2) extract the boot.img that you will find inside
3) flash the ROM as usual (with full wipe)
4) Do not restart your phone yet, because you will be stuck in a HTC logo screen (bootloop)
5) from the recovery power menu reboot to bootloader
6) connect the phone to PC
7) flash the boot.img with the fastboot command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot {path to the file on your computer}\boot.img
8) reboot and enjoy your new ROM
P.S. this is a nasty limitation of HTCDev unlock, to avoid downgrade to a previous version (there are two guides in the Index), S-OFF with Revolutionary, flash Eng bootloader 0.98.2000 or 2.00.2002 and flash custom ROMs in one step
do u want me to put on "Team viewer after flashing a non-stock rom" ?i can do that man...
amidabuddha.....
I have done all the things what u said but with a difference.....Extracted ROM.zip put on the root of the SD card and and did fastboot flash boot boot.img...
If i extract the BOOT.IMG on the computer and den flash will it make any difference???
i have flashed boot.img seperately like u said it worked..
Thanks man

[Q] Bricked, HTC BOOTLOOP, No RECOVERY, Begging You

hi all xda community !
So here is the situation :
HBOOT Screen :
***UNLOCKED***
pyramid pvt ship s-off rl
HBOOT-1.27.0000
Radio-11.21.3504.13_2
OpenADSP-v02.6.0.226.00.0104
eMMC-boot
Symptom:
I'm Stuck in a bootloop after i flash the 3.24 firmware and the Elegancia ROM.
First Time the roms boot normaly, then i reboot with the USB Cable attach.
And here come the BootLoop
Try to go to recovery, but bootLoop too.........
So I can go in Hboot, i can do FASTBOOT command and that all.
I try to flash CWM from fastboot -- > Ok for flash but wont go in recovery..
Try to flash 1.17 firmware then flash ROM.zip from 1.35Ruu Europe release --> Bootloop
Try to Flash 3.24 Ruu Same BOOTLOOP..
So what can I do community ?
What Solution i have ?
Why i cant flash a recovery since i Have S-OFF ??
MAYBE :
- Maybe i flash a Ruu who was Corrupt
- Maybe the radio don't match the Ruu i Tried to flash
- Maybe i'm just a simple mind guy
It seems that the 3.24 Firmware from SebastianFM with hBoot unlock have some problem, cause it seems that i'm not the only one who got several problem after flash this Firmware.

I got you. Actually you do not have any custom recovery installed. Actually if you flash any RUU it will wipe your recovery partition and install stock recovery. So first you flash a custom recovery. I know you tried to flash CWM.But you got bootloop. Did you delete the file PG58IMG.zip from sdcard after flashing CWM ???? Please redo the following steps.
STEPS TO FOLLOW:
1. Download recovery v5.0.0.8 for the Sensation here .
2. Copy the PG58IMG file into the Root folder of your SD card (The main Folder of your Memory Card)
3. Turn off your phone.
4. Remove the battery.
5. Wait a minute.
6. Put the battery again.
7. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
8. The phone will boot into bootloader.
9. Press Volume up to Accept when it asks" Do you want to start the update"
10. Press Power Off to Reboot back to android after installation is successful (normal screen with homescreen)
11. It may not boot . Do not worry because you may have wiped out evrything.
12. Power off your phone.
13. Delete PG58IMG from your memory card .
14. Download your favorite custom ICS ROM.
15. Put it on the root of your SDCARD.
16. Remove the battery.
17. Wait a minute.
18. Put the battery again.
19. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
20. The phone will boot into bootloader.
21. Select "Recovery" by pressing Volume Down Key.
22. Press Power button after selecting Recovery.
23. Your phone will reboot into clockworkmod recovery.
24. Wipe system, boot, cache, data , and dalvik cache
24. Install your ROM from SDCARD.
25. Wait at least 7 to 10 minutes for first boot
26. Your phone will be normal now.
NOTE:
******* You must be SuperCID to do the above. Please also note , from your preveous post, I understand that you have V3.24 Firmware. Remember only ICS rom will work with this firmware. So do not flash Gingerbread ROM.**********
hi help is appreciate,
`So i tried to follow your step 3 times . One with 1.17 Firmware 3.12 & 3.24.
every time after flashing the recovery, i reboot and when i go to recovery the phone go into boot loop.

Which ROM you want to flash ??
Why did you try all three firmware ???? You should choose your firmware according to your ROM you want to flash.
You may get boot loop after flashing recovery as there might be no rom installed.
So as I said after flashing recovery you should power off your device. Then boot into bootloader by the preveous method. ( Step 3 to 7 ).Selct recovery by volume down key. Then press power button. You will be in recovery. And flash your ROM. But your ROM should match with the firmware.
Ok but How could i flash a ROm if i can't go to recovery ...
Ok maybe you miss understand, i got boot loop when i want to go to recovery too
Please tell me what ROM you want to flash. Post the link here. And once again you give the details of your boot loader screen. Do you have fastboot/adb set up on your PC?

So, Let fix the recovery first.
Download this attatched recovery (4Ext Touch).
MD5 Checksum : d31d7df8d275f7234416af6a2e8b1c73
Check the md5check sum after download. If it matches , go to the next step else redownload.
Put the downloaded recovery.img in the directory of your fastboot binary.
Connect your phone with pc via usb cable.
Reboot your phone into bootloader.
Open fastboot command from your pc.
Now type the following command in fastboot.
" fastboot flash recovery recovery.img "
After flashing type " fastboot reboot"
Now try to go to recovery. If it is successfull then I will tell you the ROM flashing part.
Please come on gtalk . My gtalk id is musarraf172
ok i'm on gtalk wait for ya
so i'm still in the BOotLoop mode.
i've tried almost everything who was in the forum.
i'm aware of the noob style problem(Firmware not updated, still got PM58IMG.zip in SDcard, wrong Rom--firmware etc ..) and i'm not in this case !!!!
I think the device is brick but maybe someone with good knowledge, and experience can help me.
For now i got the last Hboot, i can flash recovery from fastboot , the command return OK but recovery wont boot.
Ruu flashing run nice with no problem but don't Boot (.exe and PM58IMG.zip).
when i try to unlock bootloader (who is already mark S-OFF but just for try)
with the HTCDEV method i'm stuck on the Unlock bootloader screen and i can't click YES.
it seems that my data partition have disappear ...
I here if you need more information.
Maybe someone can tell me if it's possible to FullWipe from fastboot ?

if yo can go in fastboot your likley not bricked.
you can always flash the original or similar ruu (not a rom) you phone came with in fastboot.
so you will go to stock with your hboot and recovery and to see if it boots.
then do the whole process over. s-off, then root.
then check your mid and cid if its supported.
and only then update to ics.
btw whats the type of phone? branded or og htc
my phone is from vodaphone so branded.
What do you mean by flashing your original or similar Ruu ?
The one coming with the phone out of box ?
i flash via command, .exe or PM58IMG.zip ?
i don't write my original cid is it bad ?

yes the rom the phone came with or close to it (any with recent ota`s).
always flash the ruu.exe because it wil recover the hboot, radio and recovery to stock. (zipfiles can be easily corrupted)
so go in fastboot usb (via power and volume button) and run the ruu.exe
then s-off/root the device
when s-off you should be able to install recovery within the original rom like cwr or ext4 updater tool, backup, then check your mid and cid, get a correct zipfile for the ics firmware update, flash arhd (it includes the lastest ext4 recovery). then change roms if you like.
you then also can check if the phone is working correctly.
if you already changed to supercid, i think its oke.
if not, on the forum there is al list of cid`s from different countrys and brands.
also there is al list of originals ruu the devices came with.
i assume you have done custom roms before ics came out?
so the cupercid was applied correctly?
i never supercid my devices (on a personal note)
and always flashed the testroms (to get the latest firmware) with no probs.
but if your branded its mandatory.
i've already flash 3 Ruu from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
and all finish in a bootloop with no stock recovery... almost all Ruu run fine with no alert
ruu i flashed already :
RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.27.401.3_Radio_10.42.9007.00P_10.11.9007.

What do you mean transfer big files when in recovery mode? You can only transfer files when the phone is operating normally. Are you s off?
im pretty sure i am cause i used Revolutionary to root it
Since you can access recovery:
1. Download a rom suitable for the firmware you flashed.
2. Download super wipe script from ARHD thread.
3. Place both on a freshly formatted SD card using a PC
4. Insert SD to phone and install super wipe followed by rom.

Since problem happened after you tried to s-off and you can't flash rom by recovery, i'm pretty sure that your phone is still s-on. You can try the method as following
1. Reboot into the bootloader and check whether phone is s-on. If it's not, or rather, it's s-off, congratulation to you because it's very easy now. You just need to install a third party recovery( i never try to flash a rom by stock recovery, but i recommend to use third party recovery to flash roms) and flash any rom you want except those which need firmware. If it's still s-on, what you need to do is login htcdev and unlock the bootloader
2.Download a rom which doesn't need firmware( Because i don't know how to cope with ICS stuff and i just know something about gingerbread rom. if you want to try ICS, then ignore my reply). Download a third party recovery. Extract the boot.img inside the rom to adb folder, and so do recovery.img.
3.Connect the phone to the computer, open command line and cd into adb folder, and go to fastboot mode. Type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" to install third party recovery. Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" to flash boot.img
4.Reboot into recovery mode. Double wipe the phone, or you can try superwipe provided by mike1986. Then install the rom you download. After installation, reboot the phone. Now your phone should be ok.
PS: adb command usually works when your phone has booted into system. Although type adb command in recovery mode and get some response from the phone, actually it doesn't make any sense.
All in all, all you need to do is :unlock the bootloader by htcdev, flash recovery and boot, wipe and flash the rom, then ok

What command did you use to flash recovery?
Make sure than when you flash a recovery through Fastboot, you use the following:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
The recovery must be in the same folder as fastboot/ADB
Let me know if you need any more help!
not using manual method
i didnt used manual method for install ruu.i just used flashy tool mentioned in given thread see it.

(in second method i dont use: Procedure 3: Flashing the ROM manually from a command prompt using fastboot)
and last one is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467844
it is fine.get ruu europe but still clockwork recovery mode.
so now tell me what should i do?
and there are no ruu asia_india.exe file so i have to use europe rom version coz its same as mine.
I'd go with the third method - it's the easiest, and you don't have to flash anything manually
done!!
hey thnx.i choose third but it wont work with my ruu.so i used your command with fastboot
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
and its done..thanks it restored my wfs with factory state and able to update via fota.

I'm glad it worked for you!
There is no substitute for 'manual' flashing in my eyes, it shows you every step and you can actually see whether it has worked or not Plus, it's a handy skill to have for when you change devices, or when there's no tools available
Enjoy!

yes i did, but that didnt change anything
Try to find the executive file of ROM (.exe) and run it to reflash your phone from PC. That the way I did with my One X, hope that will help. Remember to relock the phone before flashing.

i tried it but it failed because of image version of the latest Rom Update Utility( 1.08.1400.6 ) which is lower than my phone image version(1.10.1400.1.).
maybe you can go to htc service center and get them flash it back for you, they won't charge you anything (in my country), just say you don't know what happen...

i still didnt find any solution yet...
If you have the RUU.exe file (as you said), lets try :
- run the exe file.
- when the installation preperation process completed , keep the process wait there and find the temperature rom extracted somewhere in PC.
- copy the rom to other place.
- find the boot.img and recovery.img in firmware.zip file (in the zip rom that you just have)
- unlock your phone.
- press volume down + power to go to bootloader.
- connect phone to PC and use fastboot to flash boot.img file.
- continue to flash recovery.img
- relock the phone by fastboot oem lock
- flash rom.zip by fastboot.
Hope that could help. That is the way I did for my friend One X+.

So, the problem should be HBoot version, I guested. You may try to search and find if there are any solutions to re-install Hboot, otherwise, send your phone to HTC service center is last solution you should do.
Unbrick htc x920e
hi everyone i finally succeed to unbrick my htc butterfly. Thx for all the support u guys brought to this post.
This is how i did it:
1. boot in recovery mode and wipe eveything (factory reset, cache, dalvik-cache and system)
2. Flash any x920e custom rom :
In my case i couldnt mount the sdcard from the recovery so i select the option "Install zip from sideload " instead of "Install zip from sdcard" abd and i used ADB Toolkit GUI Shell (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1800335) to flash the custom rom.
Once in sideload mode u can use this command to flash the custom rom:
Code:
adb sideload rom_name.zip
After the phone reboot it was still stucked at the boot logo so i proceeded to step 3
3.Reboot in bootloader and put the phone in "fastboot USB" mode
4. Open the custom rom zip file and extract the "boot.img"
5. Use the command shell to flash the extracted boot.img using this command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
6.Reboot
