[Q] Bootloop and PG58IMG.zip in the SD - HTC Sensation

After doing the cid 11111111 and installing the firmware 3.24.401.1 from a gingerbread rom, my phone has gone on bootloop.
And opening Hboot just asks me to update the PG58IMG.zip file..
anyone please, what can I do now? I can't even go to the recovery to restore my backup.

get a SD adapter (or another phone) to connect the memory card to the computer and delete that file
I think that that firmware is only compatible with roms based on that release like ARHD...I might be wrong though..

thank you. I did not think of using another phone .. cause i couldn't find an adapter

Same problem here except I dont have another phone to hand nor do I have an adapter so im basically screwed.
I cant get adb working or anything.
So what can I do now?
I figured that the other ICS roms would atleast boot.
Kinda semi bricked.

just open back take out sdcard, boot into recovery and put sdcard back in then mount usb from recovery and delete it then put new ARHD or Insertcoin and flash!

That worked a treat. Cheers!
The new firmware and rom is snappy as hell, superb.
Phone seems to be getting pretty warm though.

^^This^^ or use adb tools and type 'adb reboot recovery', use your recovery to mount your sd card, and delete pg58img.zip file from your computer. Have to get the command in right when your computer detects your phone.

[SOLVED] Help HTC Desire S - have I bricked it

I have a desire S, Which is S-Off through revoltionary and rooted! But i don't have a nandroid backup and my phone will no longer boot up. what can i do? I've tried to do a factory reset in recovery mode but that doesnt work.
How can i flash a stock rom on it to get it back to normal, i think its bricked... can someone help me?
1st of all i suggest you download a custom rom from the development section here.
then flash that via recovery. then hopefully your phone will load up into the new rom.
after you confirm this to me i will help you further to get back to stock rom
Thanks for the reply.
I did what you said, i tried to install a custom rom in recovery but it ends up aborting after a while, i dont think i can get any rom to work now, its not looking good
Fingers crossed
See this thread
Attempt the commands that are shown within the first #1 of it and you should be able to determine whether or not you have a fried eMMC chip.
See links in my signature for adb & fastboot drivers and the thread you need to see.
What recovery are you using? and what rom are you trying to flash?
I suggest downloading this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048203
Once you have done this follow these steps below to the letter
1. Boot into recovery
2. Format System (not wipe option but format option !!!)
3. Format Data
4. Format Cache
5. Wipe Data/Factory reset (1st option in wipe/format menu)
6. Wipe Dalvik Cache
7. Now install zip from sd card and flash the rom
8. Reboot

You need to give specifics and preferably screen pictures....(if possible) did you try the commands from the thread that I posted above, or what happens when you attempted the commands layed out by Eclipse_Driod above?
The more you tell us, the more we have to work with!?
I'm sorry but I dont know how to do the command thing, i'm a newbie when it comed to that I've basicly got a desire s that wont boot up and a SD card with nothing on, i think i need to somehow put a recovery image on my phone before i can install a rom
Is there any way i can install a recovery image to the sd card from the pc, that will then allow me to install a rom?

I believe that you already have a fully working recovery on your device, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to flash LBC ROM in the first place....so I suspect that the problem is else where....(possibly damaged eMMC chip) but unless you help us, by running the commands and testing this we are un-able to confirm this for you.
You can find the adb and fastboot commands as a link in my signature simply download and then put these on you PC and run the commands that were in the thread I posted earlier (thats also in my sig Fried eMMC?)
Although I also believe that if you're able to get to S-OFF then you're able to enter the commands from your PC that will enable you to flash a recovery onto your device.
See this post where I've previously instructed some one else how to do just this.
Any questions then just and try to take screen captures or cut 'n' pastes of all errors encountered.
Good luck

does it not even boot into recovery?
you need to hold down the volume down button and keep it held down while you power on the device. This will make it boot into recovery mode.
But before you can do that i would advise you take the sd card out of the phone, connect it to your computer with a card reader and copy over the lbc mod rom.zip file straight onto the card, then put it back into the phone.
then turn the phone off and boot into recover as mentioned above and select install rom from sd card and select the zip file you transferred over.
after it has installed reboot phone by selecting the "reboot" option in the recovery mode.
all should now be well.
report back how this goes
and don't forget to hit that thanks button
Thanks for your patience.. I'm going to try and explain in full what i've done
I got S-off on my Desire S using "Revoluntionary" (after watching how to do it on YouTube) and after domwloading ClockWorkMod from market place I sucessfully installed Saga LBC ver 5.3. Everything was fine i was very pleased. I had a back up of the old stock ROM saved on my SD card which i did through Clockworkmod too.
Then this morning I got a update message from clockworkmod saying ver6.0 was available to download so i did. My phone never turned back on again I could get into recovery mode but nothing would work (wipe data, factory reset, Even tryin to install the old backed up rom didn;t work) it just kept freezing.
So i took my sd card out and plugged it into the pc to try to look for anothr rom to try out, thats when i ended up formattig the SD card (god knows why) So now ive got no backup, no clockworkmod, no nothing on my SD card...Am I screwed??

from what you have told me u still have clockwordmod recovery as it is on the phone itself. not the sd card. So you are ok there. What i need you to do next it to see if you are able to boot into recovery?
if you can then try again to format data, system and cache.
then try installing a rom from your sd card.
if it is still freezing while trying to perform a format then look back at bens previous posts about using adb through your pc to find out if your emmc chip is damaged
I can boot into recovery no probs there, but when i format data, system and cache it goes so far and then aborts
Ive just tried to install the LBC rom again i renames it PG88IMG ind it asked me to install so i did. It says 'update in progress' and the bar on the right starts to fill up but it stops near the top and eventually aborts
right, the only thing i can think of to try next is following the same method you said you followed to s-off through revolutionary.
it will say you are already s-off or something but click proceed anyway. and make sure from there that you type "y" when it asks if you want it to install clockworkmod recovery. as this will reinstall a fresh recovery image for you.
this is the only thing i can think of.
let me know how it goes
did you look at my post#11 above...
The second half of it contains instructions on how you can flash a new recovery image......from your PC.
Ive just tried to do the s-off again the way i did before but i can only go as far as the part when i connect my phone and open the revolutionary programme and it doesn't detect my phone
Ok, it looks like the last option to try is flashing a new recovery image manually.
For this you will need to download and install adb. which can be found here
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-adb-and-how-to-install-it-android/
along with instructions of how to set it up and use it.
after you have done this you will need to download this
http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-saga.img
which is the latest clockworkmod recovery for your phone. and rename it to recovery.img
then copy the recovery image to a convenient location on your computer, preferably with a short path. We will be placing it on the C Drive directly (not in any folder) and using that in the next steps.
Power your device off and reboot it in fastboot mode. (holding volume down whilst pressing power on button) then select "fastboot" from the list of options you get.
Connect your device to your computer via USB and wait till you see ‘fastboot USB’ on the screen.
Launch Command Prompt and type the following command:
fastboot flash recovery c:\recovery.img
Wait for the process to finish and reboot your device once it’s done.

One S bricked beyond repair?

So, a friend came to me and gave me his newly acquired One S and asked whether or not I could get it back up and running..
Apparently, from what I understand, he got the phone, unlocked the bootloader, but then didnt know that he should install a custom recovery image before attempting to flash CM10, so he used the stock recovery to flash the .zip from the SD Card. After rebooting (I have no idea if the flashing was successful) the phone is stuck on the quietly brilliant screen.
So, I took the phone, rebooted into the bootloader and used fastboot to boot up into a clockwork .img. Everything good so far, however, the problem is that its seemingly impossible to mount the SD card. My friend told me he fiddled around and "tried stuff", so I suspect somehow he must have messed with the sd card partition.
Since the SD card partition isnt actually on a physical removable sd card, I am running out of ideas.
Anyone have any bright tips? All I need is to get the Sd card mounted so that I can flash a ROM properly.
Thanks!
Try running an RUU.

Ruu is installed from a computer, flash standard recovery and lock the boot loader and then run the ruu.

RUU runs life an exe file on a PC, since your friend didn't install a custom recovery, just relock bootloader and run RUU while phone is plugged in to pc in fastboot mode.

Had a similar issue that you can't mount SD from clockworkmod, it mounts ok on TWRP, flash that recovery instead.

Aha, right!
However, this still doesnt resolve the issue of a broken SD Card partition..
It probably isn't broken. I've never managed to mount SD through CWM. Try flash TWRP recovery and mount through there.
Dude just listen to everyone and download the ruu and run it only way to fix it I think

There is a sticky in Q&A on how to fix unmountable /sdcard. (Basically: Flash stock recovery through fastboot, then clear storage in bootloader, then flash your favorite custom recovery again.)
It would not surprise me if this is the same thing a RUU does (except for flashing your favorite custom recovery of course). If so, you don't need to fix your sdcard before running the RUU if you decide to go that route..
Beware that the RUU will also update your hboot, which you may not want.
If you don't want to re-lock, RUU, re-submit token, re-unlock, re-root, just manually fix the sdcard mounting issue. Once you can mount your sdcard in recovery, you can just adb push a rom to it, flash it, (wipe cache), boot it. (Depending on your ROM/hboot/recovery, you may have to flash the boot img through fastboot. The best time to do so is before booting into recovery.)
@djsubtronic: There is some misunderstanding about what 'mounting the sdcard' means.
If you can't mount it onto the root file system in recovery, you have a problem and it must be fixed. In this case you can't push/pull to your sdcard or select a zip from it for flashing. If you can't mount it on your computer over USB from recovery, that's not a problem and you don't really need it as you can still adb push/pull.

Thanks for all the feedback guys! Once my mate responds Ill give it a go!
Unfortunately, so far, no luck..
Booting into the bootloader and selecting "Clear Storage" seemingly did little other than boot up into the stock recovery. After going back to the bootloader and selecting factory reset (which also just booted up stock recovery), I made him do a data wipe/factory reset.. which seemingly ran okay, but the problem still persists.. sdcard partition doesnt mount in neither Clockwork nor TWRP, and the boot is stuck on the HTC quietly brilliant screen..
My next idae I guess is to try and install a RUU.. just need to set up a Windows VM as neither of us runs Windows
I had a situation similiar, when i went to flash, i had the recovery twrp, but something happened when i went to flash, and my sdcard got corrupted,
i cant remember if i formatted the sdcard thru windows, but i think i formatted it twrp, and then was up and running,
or in windows7 disk management i had to fix the partition then formatted...
this happened over a month ago took over an hour...
but i really really really dont think ur phone is bricked... i can be fixed...
get the ruu and go over a friends house who has windows.... hope it works...
Thanks, booted up a Win 7 VM and pushed in the RUU, partition table reconstructed and everything is back to normal.. Thats another One S now kicking CM10
Thanks for the advice everyone!

[Q] Stuck in CWM. Can't mount the sd card. Nothing is backed up.

I tried to install drumlock app and my phone restarted and went into the recovery. I can't mount the sd card either to flash the rom again. I dont have anything backed up. I am really lost and need someone's guidance.
I had the same issue one time what I did is I mounted the phone as a USB drive (don't know if it works with CWM, if not just flash TWRP recovery) and formated the SD card (when I mounted it Windows asked to format the SD card; Format in FAT32!). As you can imagine all data from the SD will be lost but your SD card is mounted again and you should be able to boot again. If booting still doesn't work try putting a ROM on the SD via mount as USB drive function and try to flash it. It should work.
worked but another problem happened :[

Thanks for that advice. Everything worked. I formatted the cd card and it is now seen in TWRP where I installed the viper one s rom. BUT! Now my phone just keeps on restarting - it shows the htc logo with a red banner under it and just restarts and does it all over again. I can get into boorloader mode If i get lucky pressing it before it restarts, yet the bootloader wont let me get into recovery. I am going to try other methods I guess but I am wondering if there is a way just to use RUU and restore it to stock?

You must've done something to your recovery when you formatted your sdcard. Try flashing TWRP again. You can easily bring your device back to stock by running the RUU. Info can be found around the forum.
Relock bootloader and run a official HTC RUU (warning: itll update hboot).

I tried that method and flashed utb rom and when i restarted it its stuck on the loading screen...so i tried the different viper one s rom and nothing either. After i locked it i tried the RUU but it gives me the error 150 ...Im on the right track I know...its probably something minor that I keep on overlooking.

I also tried this method but it brings up the error 150. Could this be the recovery that is causing it ?
So you can't even get into recovery even if you flash it over fastboot?

[Q] Wiped and not working HTC One S [s4]

Good day everyone,
Thanks for taking the time to read this. I am in desperate need of your help. I recently purchased a HTC One S from an online store they told me it was new never used locked phone. Turns out phone was rooted, 4g does not work, and it could not recognize e drive, (internal sd card)
After reading the all in one i re-rooted it and install the teamwin version of recovery.
Now i never had any back ups or any factory files. as i got the phone rooted with software that did not work. My phone now has no rom and i cannot install from adb sideloader, or an other means. I am new to this and cannot seem to figure out how to get my phone back to even stock un-rooted etc. I tried multiple forums and download links but nothing.
i was able to install vipers rom at one point but despite several attempts to reinstall. recovery does not see files loaded. which i can see on my mac or pc.
the other strange thing i notice is that at the top in fastboot mode i sometimes see unlocked in pink only and other times i see both unlocked and tampered. when its unlock only none of my computers recognize connection.
I also tried boot.img for flash. The furthest my screen no goes is the htc logo, then goes black.
Please help, even to just point me in rite direction to have this resolved.
the boot.img, did you flash it via fastboot? (fastboot flash boot boot.img)
And, one question that comes to mind... they sold you a device as new, yet it wasnt.. Why didnt you return it?

Yes I tried several times loading the boot.img via fastboot.
As far as returning the device i trashed the mailing box but kept original packaging so no return address. I called the company which i made the purchase from "N1wireless" several times and sent several emails to them. They have yet to reply or answer any of my calls. Which is why I am so frustrated.

Boot into recovery, select mount > mount usb storage. From pc move the Rom.zip to your sd card which should now be showing on your pc. After it is moved to your phone select unmount then press home button in twrp recovery. Then install the Rom. After install open up adb and type adb reboot bootloader then press enter. Now fastboot flash the boot img from inside the Rom.zip on your computer. After that reboot your phone and report back

Hi, thanks for the reply, thats just the thing I cannot in recovery install any rom loaded to sd card. It fails. I tried reinstalling the recovery and it still not reading my sd card.
So my guess is i need a new twrc or how to do it from my mac, as now when i try on my pc it is failing as-well. Once I get the recovery to work I will try your other suggestions as I think it will work based on the steps you mentioned.
I am trying to figure out how to use terminal to reinstall recovery. any suggestions or links will be greatly appreciated.:good:

I reinstalled recovery several times now and it wont recognize the sd card. is there another recovery i can download and use? Also is there any instructions for a newby to use terminal to re-boot, everything from scratch. Meaning if the phone is completely blank except the fast boot and a recovery manager no backups or stock kernel etc. what is the format to be used in order for the computer and recovery to recognize the sd card?
I think I need a good recovery rom like cmod if there is one for the htc one s or the stock one if someone has it.

I had that problem the sd card would not be seen by my laptop and the phone would not boot at all if you plug in the phone to your go to start and then computer right click on your c drive go to manage and see if you can see it there if so try to format it and then reboot the phone if it works you can then install cwm as a recovery system then you can put what rom you wont on it i am use in zenRom 1.05 and to me its the best coz it like the htc rom that the phone come with if that don`t work let me know coz i have more tricks to try i hope this helps you out.
Theres only TWRP and CWM for the S afaik, and CWM sucks. TWRP is the one to use.
I had a similar problem a few days ago, luckily there's not such a bad solution.
1) Pick a custom ROM you want to install from the HTC One S developer forums (I went with Trickdroid) and download the ROM/boot image.
2) Then download and flash the stock recovery here: http://www.4shared.com/file/1UuxTh0k/stock_recovery.html
3) Boot into bootloader, clear storage and then reset to factory defaults.
4) Flash TWRP
5) Reboot into recovery, sdcard should now be mounted/visible
Then push the ROM to your sdcard with adb or mount USB storage and flash it/flash the boot image and you should be sorted.

I could not get the stock recovery via that link you provided. If there is another link to the stock I would appreciate it. I had to flash it wit cwm twice then reflash with twrc to get it to identify the sd card. i had tried the viper rom but my 4g and wifi doesnt work. Will try trickmod hopefully that works with no more issues

[Q] Wiped SD card, no OS (Inspire)

I am brand new to this kind of android tinkering. Yesterday, I successfully rooted my phone and attempted to install Cyanogenmod7. I had an HTC Inspire running Gingerbread. Everything done, tried to boot phone from recovery with all data/caches wiped, phone was ready to boot Cyanogenmod. Waited about half an hour and it was still stuck on the HTC splash screen, so I pulled the battery and went back to recovery and my SD card was wiped, including all HTC Sense and Android data. Can anyone help me restore my phone back to Gingerbread? I tried running some RUU's to no success already
Move a ROM to your SD card from your computer, flash it, and fastboot flash boot boot.img from the ROM zip.

Thanks for the quick reply. So the ZIP file, im gonna have to extract in in my computer and find the boot.img file then flash that? And man, I'm gonna have to get an sd card converter for my laptop then.
Also, would this still work with my SD card? There is literally nothing on there.
