[RESOLVED] ics firmware did update hboot, didn't flashed radio

Hey guys,
any ideas on this.
I used the PG58IMG.zip with the new firmware update for only the hboot and radio. The hboot was flashed, i'm now on "locked" 1.20.... but the radio "11.." wasn't flashed. Now i'm having issues with some dialer stuff and net connectivities. So my guess is i need to flash the new radio file.
The thing is i can't flash the radio anymore. fastboot won't work on this new hboot, and i can't use the PG58IMG files anymore.
When trying to use a PG58IMG file, i'm getting the cid error.
RESOLVED:
fastboot cid commands still work on hboot 1.20, just get your phone into hboot, and try supercid, this worked for me.

Have you tried doing it with Flashboot ? In the command window typing the flash command, it should be unzipped into a clean folder at your system disk root (C...

if i try any fastboot command, it's only waiting for device, that's it.

there is a thread somewhere on here with a tut on how to get back to hboot old unlocked hboot so you can flash new radio then flash new hboot
here it is my friend http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20681060&postcount=22

Is your phone on charge mode and USB debug ? You might want to try switching between charge mode and USB disk

i'm switching between all options, but it is known that hboot 1.20... doesn't support fastboot yet, so that's something else.

for now i'm back to gingerbread, but i really liked ics, let's hope somebody will find a way to use fastboot on 1.20...

give it a try put downloaded zip on root of sd card go into bootloader and phone should see file and flash.
this is just what i have read on the ICS firmware thread.

yeah it sees the update, it's trying to auto install, can't choose yes or no, it's just scanning for the PG files and when it's trying to install the zip file it stops with a incorrect cid error.

install complete ruu (released by rc team), that'll install everything including radio, after that install any custom ICS rom you like, i found this method safest.
be sure to super cid your phone.

Supercid after flashing right... I can't supercid now because of fastboot not working with my hboot.

Well, you can always unlock the bootloader with htcdev. Then you can use fastboot again.

Here's some advice. I was having the same problem you were. What I realized was that I was unable to check my cid or use fastboot options because I was running a ics Rom which breaks fastboot. I'm tmous and my cid wasn't in firmware by default. So after trying to flash the update I ended up with the updated hboot 1.20 that said locked (supposedly just says locked but really isnt) I kept reading every page of the firmware thread and I found someone who added the tmous cid to the firmware update and posted a drop box link which worked like a charm. I reflashed that one and now I have new radio and firmware and my phone is much smoother. Hopefully this works for you as it sounds like exactly what I went thru. Going to go find you the link now
Edit* here you go, let me know how it works out

Here's an eeasier method. Flash the Eng hboot via bootloader. Then do supercid Then redo the firmware update again. It won't fail in my opinion

[Q] HTC sensation 4G stuck in Boot Loop

I bougth a new HTC Sensation 4G and decided to upgrade to ICS 4.0.3.
I don't know too much about how to flash,root etc. So I googled it and found a forum. I was successful with the S-OFF part so I went to step 2 root my phone.
I downloaded a file PMG58IMG and placed that on my SD and tried to update trough HBoot. It asked me if i want to update I did volume +.
After it was finished I got this:
Model ID incorrect!
Update Fail
Press <POWER> to reboot
So I turned it off and started it up, it started to boot loop every time after the HTC Logo, turn off starts up HTC Logo and it keeps doing that.
I went into Hboot and saw that my HBOOT version that was 1.18 has been changed to 1.27
I do have to mention that I did clear or wiped anything before doing this. I just opened the box and started with the process. So I think I had Android 2.3 I'm not sure about that.
I tried to do the PMG58IMG thing again several times with other PMG58IMG file but keep getting this:
Model ID incorrect!
Update Fail
Press <POWER> to reboot
Please help me solve this problem thank you...

probable solution
Hey,
Check your MID and edit the android-info.txt file accordingly. or download one of these matching your phones details. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
cheers.

.
Thread moved to Q&A due to it being a question. Would advise you to read forum rules and post in correct section.
Failure to comply with forum rules will result in an infraction and/or ban depending on severity of rule break.

The pg58img file is a firmware update, not for gaining root (which is done by flashing a superuser binary zip in recovery).
The problem is now you have firmware incompatible with your rom, causing bootloop.
The solution, first thing to try is remove SD, delete the pg58img, reinsert and try to boot.
If it fails you need to redo the pg58img process with a firmware compatible with Android 2.3 if that's what you had. You need firmware version 3.12 or lower.
If this fails you may need to run ruu and start over.

So I downloaded this firmware T-MOBILE: DOWNLOAD 3.12
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
The firmware was updated successful and I now back on my home screen. It is NOT boot looping any more.
I want to wipe everything and put ICS 4.0.3 on it. I guess my phone is not fully rooted yet, right? So what do I have to do next?
I do have to mention that my Hboot version has been changed from 1.27 to 1.23.
Some details about my phone:
Android 2.3.4 Sense 3.0
Software number: 1.50.531.1

Glad to hear you are back up and running, now follow the guide here to get rooted, super cid, etc http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
Do yourself a favor rename all of the previous PMG58IMG files you downloaded or delete them so you do not become confused when you download the recovery from the guide I linked you to.

I'm guessing that Recovery CWM is not installed. In STEP 2 I have to download the Recovery v5.0.0.8. I downloaded recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-pyramid from http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager.
What do I do with the Recovery file it's a IMG file?
Thanks Everybody...

You update in bootloader same as you did for firmware.
To note also, for newer ics roms you will most likely need to flash newer fw than 3.12.

Do I have to put the Recovery.IMG file in the PMG58IMG.zip file? Because I tried to flash the recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-pyramid it doesn't go. I just copy and paste it on my SD card. I didn't place it in a zip.
I go in Hboot mode then to recovery then I get this:

1. Put pmg58img on the ROOT of your SD card, not in any folder.
2. Boot into boot loader
3. It will ask you to confirm update. Do that and wait.
4. When its finished reboot

The recovery file is not a PG58IMG file or zip file it a image file.
I downloaded my PG58IMG file here:
T-MOBILE: DOWNLOAD 3.12
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
That PG58IMG file worked for me to update the firmware. My question is when I download the recovery file which is a image file what should I do with it because I put it on my SD and fastboot it and it doesn't work.

I see the problem, the links from where you are downloading have the files improperly compiled, that's the problem.
Go to page three of this thread, someone posted a properly compiled CWM Recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1277975
Download the file, it's a PMG58IMG file, it is working for others. Someone needs to update the guide, no wonder there's so many users having trouble installing recovery.

Thank you, I was thinking about that and I did it before you replied. I downloaded the Recovery file that is a image file and made a PMG58IMG.zip file. After that I copied the .txt file from the firmware PMG58IMG.zip file and paste that in the Recovery zip. I was a success I'm permanently rooted.
Now I have to do the next steps hope I'll do them correctly.

I am glad you got it sorted. Have fun and enjoy flashing!!

Thank you, this cured my boot loop.

I just posted this over on the ARHD thread. Do you think that this maybe my case? Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
About a week ago I SuperCID my phone. I then went to load a ICS ROM. I have not been able to get my phone to do anything but startup into HBOOT and/or Recovery. I either was getting stuck in a boot loop or would get the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" screen. I spent the whole weekend on the forums and still no luck. I was hoping someone could see something that I maybe doing wrong. The one issue that I know is wrong is the Radio version needed for ARHD is 11.69.3504.00U_11.22.3504.07_M. I tried to use a program called Android Flasher to load the correct radio but I don't think that that occurred. Below is all the information that I can gather.
TMOUSA Sensation 4G
On HBOOT Screen:
Revolutionary
Pyramid PVT SHIP S-Off RL
HBOOT - 1.27.1100
Radio - 11.22.3504.07_M
OpenADSP - V02.6.0.2226.00.0131
eMMC - Boot
Jan 13, 2012 17:33:34
Other specifics:
ARHD 6.51.1.zip ROM
ARHD SuperWipe.zip
4EXT v1.0.0.4 RC1 installed and working properly
PG58IMG is 3.32 for TMOUSA
CID and MID
CID 11111111
MID PG5810000
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If needed, I can upload a copy of the logcat while the phone boots up. Thanks in advance.

best best flash firmware 1,17 and then restart
then runn the ruu file
turn phone on fastboot make sure no img files in sd card ruu will see phone and bring you to step 1 in my post
fastboot is 1 step past were firmware installs make sure you have no img on sd card
its the firmware some of our phone just dont want to take it from 2.24-3.32 not sure why if your not getting in rom you can try backing up sd card formate it putting rom on it only rewipe and flash with nothing on it "king said dirty sd card" and try if not follow my steps

I will definitely try this tomorrow. Your instructions will work with TMOUSA correct?

carrier dont matter when you play with cid
but yeah tmob will work

Firstly - you HAVE to be running 1.50.401.1 to use this OTA file. and 1.17 firmware If you're on ANY other build it wont work
firmware can be found here for 1.17

OK dumb question. Will the 1.17 FW load the 1.50.401.1 with it or do I have to get that from somewhere?

You also have to be 100% stock (e.g. NOT rooted). If you are running a custom ROM you HAVE to use the http://www.4shared.com/file/risaQet4/RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1454012.htm RUU to get back to stock but you HAVE to leave the phone S-OFF.

I know with the RUU that the phone has to be up and running. Is there a way to run the RUU if the phone can only be loaded into HBOOT or recovery?

Yeah ruu will run in fastboot make sure you have no IMG files

Here's where I'm at now. I cannot update to 1.50 because HTC complains of a "Variant System Version" when I try to do the 1.50 OTA. I simply cannot figure out any way around this. My recovery is stock, CID is HTC__001 as you mentioned, and I can't move forward because I can't get this 1.50 installed.

Ran the RUU, let the phone boot up, checked for updates, update fails with the error I mentioned above.
I do not have the XE, just the regular Virgin Sensation. I had Virtuous 3.0.0 on there before but was trying to upgrade to 4.0.0 and got the boot loop after upgrading the firmware.
Would it not be easier just to RUU straight to 1.50?

So I decided to run an old'ish ICS Pyramid RUU I had lying around that I *knew* worked previously, RUU_PYRAMID_LE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.06.401.101_Radio_11.59.3504.00U_11.16.3504.16_M_test_231336.
Then I flashed recovery, latest 3.32 firmware, did superwipe & virtuous 4.0.0. Everything works perfect!

Well if you don't have a xe the ruu should not have worked hmmmm yeah you can run Thu to 150 but all the ones I downloaded didn't work with bootloops

Okay, i wanted to download the ELEGANCIA ICS ROM but before i could i had to download a FIRMWARE PACKAGE(or just firmware). So i downloaded the Firmware from 3.32 RUU which is for the ELEGANCIA ROM...By the way, I DID THIS BEFORE I INSTALLED the ELEGANCIA ROM(i hadn't downloaded it yet..elegancia rom) I followed the instructions how to flash it. It said it would tell you what to do next..so i did it. Went into Recovery and flashed through sd and installed the ZIP file and when it asked if i wanted to udate it i pressed Yes...and then this is what HAPPENs NEXT.
It ask if i want to update and I do and then it says:
Parsing...[ SD ZIP]
[1] BOOTLOADER - Ok
Update Complete...
Press POWER to reboot.
So i press power and all it does is: BOOTS up and then TURNS OFF
It continues to do that...I believe it's called BOOT LOOPING.?
I pull out the battery and press VOL. Down plus POWER at the same tiime and it takes me back to the WHITE SCREEN and I see FASTBOOT, RECOVERY, FACTORY RESET, SIMLOCK and IMAGE CRC but does NOT let me choose. It automatically goes to HBOOT.
I have to pull battery or it will continue to BOOT itself on and off again. Even with the phone off, I connect it to my usb connection on my laptop and my device does not show on my laptop. Both the usb connection and usb cord are working properly.
That is my BIG PAIN in MY ASS right now!!
Can someone please help me.?

You will have to make your phone Super-CID or download the correct firmware package that fit your CID.
Super-CID makes you able to flash any firmware package etc.

You stated that your ROM was GB and that's not supported on the 3.32 F/W.
Download your ICS ROM and mike's SuperWipe script from the ARHD thread.
Copy them to the SDcard via the PC and a USB <-> microSD adapter.
Delete the PG58IMG.zip file on the SDcard.
Boot the phone into Bootloader, get into Recovery, SuperWipe and flash the ROM.
You also have a locked version (1.27.0000) of the HBOOT, I suggest at some stage installing an unlocked version (1.27.1100) from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767

Don't bother restoring to stock, waste of effort.
Read my previous post.
1. Anyway, did the ICS F/W update work ?
2. Is the PG58IMG.zip file still on the SDcard ? If so rename /delete it.
3. Get your chosen ICS ROM and mike's SuperWipe script onto the SDcard.
4. Go into recovery and run the Superwipe script then flash the ROM.
Steps 2 & 3 you'll need to use a PC to do these with a USB <-> microSD adapter.
I am assuming that there wasn't a typo in your original post in that you actually have HBOOT 1.27.0000, this is ICS ONLY firmware and GB won't work on it.
BTW what recovery have you got ? CWM or 4EXT ?

I just tried it and the phone is ON NOW BUT it is just on the White screen with the Green HTC letters. It has been on for 15 minutes already...By the way, I DO NOT have a microSD adapter. I did it by getting into CWM and going to Recovery and going into mounts and then i mounted it and was able to install it like that. Is that the reason why it is still on the White HTC screen? Do I pull the Battery?
Another thing I still haven't flashed my ICS Rom because when i DID Mike's SuperWipe it did it's thing and just automattically went to the White HTC screen.
No, there is NO TYPO, that is exactly what it says. I believe i still have CWM and I remember tthat I had 4ext to.

So precisely what have you got on the SDcard at the moment ?
PG58IMG.zip ?
SuperWipe.zip (or what ever the name is) ?
ICS ROM "zip" file ?
Edit: If you used the superwipe script you have no OS on the phone and will NEED to flash an ICS ROM through recovery. It shouldn't have gone to the white HTC screen just returned to CWM. If you don't have an ICS ROM on the phone's SDcard you can try adb pushing it or possibly use another device that has microUSB capability.

What I have now is Superwipe.zip and ICS ROM.zip. I deleted the PG58IMG that I had on the SD Card before I did the SUPERWIPE.
I pulled out the battery and got into recovery and installed from sdcard and I went to install ICS ROM and it started but then it said ABORTED. Tried again and said the same thing.
Should I try another ICS ROM?
What about not having the PG58IMG?

[Q] Can Anyone please help..Wifi error on HTC Sensation

please help me I have HTC Sensation Z710e
I used to have the 3.33 version software and Hboot 1.27.1111, so I used the Juopnetbear method for S-OFF
Here's a link to it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617
I did the htcdev method to unlock the bootloader and it worked flawlessly(the device had no errors after reboot)
But when I flashed 3.32 stock ROM(which is required for the control bear method to work), there was a Wifi error . I thought this was a temporary glitch and it will go away after I install another ROM..
So I proceeded to S-OFF using the wire trick
Now when I installed a custom ROM it read Wifi error...
I looked into many posts and tried different methods but nothing worked..
PLEASE SAVE ME!!!
CUSTOM ROM is Ordroid V9.0.0

maybe in your case is unecessary but it worths the try
flash the boot.img of the rom manually
see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861 (only extra 1 step) or
do a full wipe and reflash the rom

Reflashing is maybe the only thing you could do
Or try flashing the radio

I did that and it didn't work however I flashed a different ROM (HyperNonSense) and now it's working
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda app-developers app

How exactly do I flash the radio?sorry for all the questions..I did find a ROM that solved the problem and I noticed that it had a stock kernel..does that mean that I can never flash a ROM with a custom kernel? WTF to that:banghead:
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda app-developers app

You can flash a matching kernel if your So Off. And you can flash a radio if your S off. Here is how. This is how I flash my radio. The radio file is a pg58img file. It must continue to be named pg58img, nothing added to the name. Place the pg58img file at root of SD card. Do this by coping the file from your computer to your device. Then once file is placed on root of SD card pull battery, put battery back in, press volume down and power, the device will recognise the file and ask to update, power for yes. Once the update is finished you MUST remove the pg58img file from root of SD card or when in bootloader the device will continue to try to update over and over and over. So make sure to delete the pg58img file when finished. That's it. That's how you update the radio. I suggest you read on the radio site how to update because if your unsure of any steps you can brick your device. So I'm going to attach a link for updating radio. There are a couple ways to do it. I think this way is easiest. But do read the directions so everything is clearly understood. Hope this helps you. Here is the radio link with instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202867
