[Q] FAILED (remote: not allowed) need a little help - HTC Desire S

Hello!
Just got my hands on a desire S from someone who said they bricked it, i dont think it is though.
I can access fastboot/HBOOT but it doesnt seem to have a custom recovery installed, shows the stock recovery or download mode logo, the screen goes blank and vibrates 7 times.
Every time i try to flash anything through fastboot it gives me the error in the heading
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
The ROM just doesnt boot and shows T mobile logo indefinitely (must be a bootloop) but the phone doesnt have any Tmo logos on the body.
more details
SAGA PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-0.98.0002
RADIO-3805.06.02.03_M

I read about ENG S-off but i dont know what this phone has, maybe its just radio S-OFF cos its Tmo and doesnt have a recovery though i dont understand what the 7 vibrates mean either.
little help please?

7 vibrations most likely mean overheating, and this can't be cured by any means.
The phone is S-OFF, but doesn't have Engineering HBOOT - so you can't use fastboot, it won't allow you (just what it says).
Your best bet is to try a stock RUU and see if it helps.

Download a PG88IMG.zip from an eng hboot, copy it to root of sd (cardreader), boot to bootloader and let it do his job.
Afterwards delete the zip boot to bootloader once more and flash a recovery with fastboot.
I would use a ruu only if those steps fail.

Hey Tectas I tried your method,
went here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178001
and got the first radio which had the same number as mine ie this one
From the 1.31.832.3 RUU:
20.28d.30.0805U_3805.04.02.01
says cid incorrect.
shall i try all the ones with 3805 in them? cos i really have no clue which one is right for me considering i dunno which RUU is compatible with this phone

No, not radio, leave it untouched yet, the hboot is what you need
Check my signature, I personally would recommend this one

even for this PG88IMG.zip which is the 1mb hboot file it says cid incorrect update fail press power to reboot

Do you know from which regions your phone is?
Try in fastboot : fastboot getvar all, and Google your main version then download the appropriate file from this link

Once you are sure you have the right RUU, you might have to make a goldcard to get rid of the CID error

The whole point of having "right" RUU is to avoid this error - having RUU for his specific region gets rid of CID error message. Otherwise he just needs any RUU and goldcard.

I have what seems to be the right RUU..
now when i try to install it, the RUU installer hangs and the phone also hangs.
I should reiterate that my phone DOES NOT BOOT into the rom, has what may be boot loop error. If i could access android i wouldnt be asking any of these questions as from in there all this is easy peasy!
i'm trying booting into Hboot and fastboot to install this. as far as i remember it doesnt work here so how else can i go about it?
once again, no custom recovery, no eng bootloader, no working android rom
Thanks to all of you who tried to help by the way

3 possibilities:
1. Let the ruu run without attached device till the only option is to close the program, search in your temp folder for the rom.zip, copy it to another folder, close the program, copy it to sd and try to flash it the same way you did before with the hboot (rename the rom.zip to PG88IMG.zip before you flash it)
2. Do the same like at 1. but create a goldcard before
3. Do the same I described before with hboot, but create a goldcard before
Swyped because PC is under full load or to far away

If the RUU installer hangs - your chances aren't too good.
If it hangs on "rebooting to bootloader" - boot to FASTBOOT manually and start RUU while in fastboot mode.
If it hangs updating - chances are you're another case of faulty eMMC.

gave the phone to some guy in the market. says he'll take 5Ā£ to open it and check it out and let me know whats wrong.
the RUU rom.zip file when renamed to pg88img.zip or whatever does work as its the only zip file it detects in hboot mode,
it starts the update, heats up like an angry mountain and then sucks its battery off..
thanks you guys for all the help. I'll update you on what was the actual problem when this guy tells me so you know what these symptoms are for in future

Have you tried using the gold card? As it has already been stated that it should get rid of the wrong cid issue.

Is this question so hard? no answer after 27 view?
Goldcard ?
If you've not tried the goldcard method yet try that.
And make sure not to use GoldCard Helper's built in Menu > Copy CID tool, because for me it copied the wrong one. The CID for MMC2 is the one you need.
@ayene
I replied to your other thread how to create a gold card, you have ignored that.
I am unsure if you are unable to boot into the ROM but I am assuming you are booting directly into fastboot and cant.
You can fix your problem by one of these methods.
1) Download this RUU and install it, then create a goldcard (by using your phone, since you are now able to boot into the ROM) and then install the RUU you are trying to install in your post.
2) Create a gold card on the PC have a look here then install the RUU in your first post.

No man. I don't ignore that. With your nice help I can install ruu and other thing. I thank u very very Much. Just I don't know how to install the special ruu. OK. U said use gold card. OK I will try it. Thank a lot.
I use goldcardtool not GoldCard Helper and make a goldcard. But when i want to install the RUU it said cid code error. Please Help.
@ayene
Go the the market, get the app GoldCard Helper, the app you used only has the options for mmc0/1. If you look at post 4 in this thread it says use mmc2 i.e. "adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:*/cid"
So get the app here, then use the mmc2 number. NOT MMC0!!!

I will do that after my work(Job) finishe. what is different between mmc0 or 1 or 2?
mmc0 is your phones physical memory (where the system lives/apps are installed/user data etc.) mmc2 is the memory card.
oh no
again it say customer id error.
let me say my problem maybe another solution.
I flash almost all the ported ics roms. in all of them , wifi dont work. it says enabling and stay on it. i cant connect to any wifi. one of the man had same problem and he said if i flash this ruu and ofter that the ics , wifi will work. but I cant install the RUU.

Did you unlocked your phone via htcdev?
If so, you maybe need to flash the boot.img separately after flashing the ROM (Ruu)

I did that but not work. maybe I should both unlock and make goldcard?
the RUU dont flash so flash boot.img wont help, I think.
I mean after update radio and signing it says cid error. So just flash boot.img wont help.

[Q] OMG, What is Going on

So I have been doing this for a while now and this is the most troublesome phone I have come across and its probably a stupid easy fix or perhaps not fixable at all.
I have an HTC Sensation 4G on Bell in Canada. I got it stuck in a boot loop (nothing in the flash rom obviously). I can get into fastboot and connect to fastboot USB. I am stuck on
HBOOT-1.17.0011
CID BM___001
MID PG5811000
S-ON
Now my issue is that I have downloaded 2 stock 1.35 and 1.45 firmwares from bell (RUU files). Both fail at signature verification. When I try to manually install them I get the same error. When I look in the rom.zip file and open the android-info.txt it has BM___001 for CID and PG5811000 for MID. So why does it fail and how can I get around this.
here is a full getvar all from the device in case it helps

First of all edit the first post and erase imei from it.. You should not show imei's
Now to the problem
What error exactly are you getting when ruu failed ?
And also do this..
1.if you unlocked the bootloader... Relock it..
Command is
fastboot oem lock
2. Run the ruu with phone connected in bootloader/fastboot.. If connected properly the phone should say FASTBOOT USB

I am thinking that my bootloader is half my issue actually. I am on 1.17.0011 and does not say Locked or Unlocked. No matter what PG58IMG package I try (my own compiled or found online) it always gives a signature verification error. I cannot flash anything or do any fastboot oem commands like get_identifier_token as they end in a bootloader [ERR] Command Error !!!
So frustrated. I have all the info for the phone and done care abotu s-on or s-off, just want stock back on but even my stock BM___001 RUU packages give me the same signature error. I have tried 3 of them. I am not sure if it matter but I also cannot find out why I am on version 1.34.666 when stock was 1.35.666 when the phone was released. But I assume if I am going up in version that should not matter right?
So bootloader is not locked or at least as far as I know its not, fastboot oem lock gives the bootlader error as well
I have the correct RUU but it says I dont.
I am open to any ideas. If I knew how to run a rift box I would even order one to be honest.
Thanks in advance
Just an update before I go crash for the night.
All RUU exe packages end up stopping at updating signature and go to a screen that says ERROR 132: Please find the correct ROM package for your phone. I am using the ocrrect ROM packages, have check the android text file to ensure that BM___001 is in there and it is. The firmware I am on is 1.34.666.1 and am updating to either 1.35.666.1 or 1.45.666.1.
Getting the rom.zip and putting it in an SD card only ends up with a very long boot in HBOOT as it reads the 400mb file and does nothing after reading it.
Manual install through fastboot gives me an ERROR 12 signature error and asks to find the correct ROM package for my phone as well.
Trying to load ANY PG58IMG into the phone (even to just update the bootloader) gives me the same 132 signature error.
I am on HBOOT-1.17.0011 so there is no locked or unlocked and no fastboot oem commands work, all end with a (bootloader): [ERR] No Command !!!
I have checked 20 times tonight and the CID and MID match the RUU package so what would be the cause of this if anyone has any ideas. I have been over 200 forums regarding tons of HTC phones (not just the HTC Sensation 4G) and nothing has worked. Tried 10 ROM packs from all over the world, all end with 132 error.
Please if anyone has info it would be appreciated.
well as odd as it is, it seems to be ok now. i simply changed the android-info.txt file in the official rom.zip from BM****** to BM___001 and now it works... wow.... thank god though.

Tampered: no stock recovery
Unlocked: your bootloader is looked
VLE: Ville: HTC One S
S-ON: security on
Radio: your radio Version
You have to lock your bootloader.
Download the all in one toolkit which you can find in the development section. There are all necessary files.
Be sure you have installed the HTC sync driver.
1. Connect your mobile To your pc when your are in the screen where you can see hboot version etc.
2. There should be "hboot USB" in blue.
3. Navigate to hboot and press power.
4. It should change to "fastboot USB" in red.
5. Then open the all in one toolkit on your PC.
6. Open the folder where ADB and fastboot exe are located.
7. Press shift and right click somewhere in the folder and open the command line.
8. Then type in "fastboot oem lock"
9. If you take a look to your phone you should see that the "unlock" changed To "relocked"
That was the first step.
10. Go To the development section in this forum and look for the wwe europe ville ics ruu 2.31 or sth like that.
11. Download the file
12. Doubleklick the file
13. Follow the instructions
14. Let the ruu install everything
15. If everything works fine you should be on official ICS 4.0.4 with Sense 4.1 now
Good luck!
I hope I wrote an easy understandable instruction.
If u experience any problems feel free to post it here.
I'm sure I or someone else can help you.

glad to hear that I helped you.
Tampered means that someone already changed something on the phone (unlocked/relocked/custom recovery)
A comparison should be.. if you bought a new pc and if you open the case you have to break the seal. The "Tampered" say that you had break this seal on the phone (e.g. by unlocking the bootloader)
S-ON means that the security flags are on. Its a system protection so nobody can manipulate system data.
S-ON + locked bootloader -> you can do nothing, no root, no custom things
S-ON + unlocked bootloader -> you can flash custom recovery, root, custom rom (you can see an unlocked bootloader as a compromise between S-ON and S-OFF
S-OFF -> you can do everything what you want, change bootloaderGUI, bootanimations, splashscreens.
Unlocked means that you bootloader is unlocked. If its locked you cant install custom recovery, root and custom firmware. It has to be locked when you install a RUU.
You cant find your HBOOT version in your phone settings because its the version of the bootloader.
the bootloader is independed from the rom you are on. Its like the BIOS from your PC and your ROM is Win7 where you either cant find the bios version.
Radio is the module which is responsible for mobile data etc.
no/wrong/corrupt radio = no network/no signal
openDSP .. i don't know
eMMC boot, I guess that this is the partition where the bootloader is located.. but I'm not sure.
Mar 21, 2012, 16:01:09 is the date when .. difficult to explain .. when the development of the RUU was finished?
if I wrote something wrong please correct me.
Thanks a lot for this very helpful information. Appreciate your help. Kind of person like you are the reason these forums are running successfully and helping novice people like me. Thanks again.

After trying to flash into CM10, i got stock in CM boot logo.
So trying to get back to original using RUU.
But it just looks like I can not get right one...
I did everything like in posts above, and when I enter "fastboot getvar cid" I got "HTC_Y13"
Any idea which RUU is correct for that?
I'm still trying, so maybe it will be fools luck... Or maybe someone can put me on point?

Hello everyone,
So, 2 days in front of PC, reading forums and trying. No luck... So try to post it here.
I want to flash to CM10.
Bootloader is unlocked.
Recovery is installed (TWRP S4)
Root is done.
Security S-ON.
When I try to install CM10, everything went fine, but when It have to reboot it just stuck in CM booting logo loop...
And since you can't remove memory card on HTC One S, I think I have no other option how to reinstall stock firmware. And my problems starts...
I relocked bootloader.
Download already like five different RUU's...
The problem is, I can not locate my version, it's blank...

When I push "Next" it goes "Checking", then "Rebooting Bootloader", "Erasing User Data" and "Sending".
When it comes to "Updating Signature" I'm getting error code...
Phone is bought in Norway, and by checking cid: HTC_Y13, I can see that it's HTC-Nor. So which one of RUU's I have to use?
I also tried to flash zip RUU, using One_S_All-In-One_Kit_v3.5 with same no luck...
Really don't know what to do... Any help would be appreciated...
Thank you in advance!

Firstly, I would recommend removing part of your IMEI and Serial Numbers from your post, it could be used in bad ways by other people.
Ville is the HTC One S with a Snapdragon S4 chipset, clocked at 1.5GHz (dual core) otherwise known as z520e. (You have this phone)
VilleC2 is what became of the HTC One S when HTC ran out of Snapdragon S4 chipsets in many parts of the world due to a shortage. It has a Snapdragon S3, clocked at 1.7GHz (dual core) otherwise known as z560e.
VillePlus is a Special Edition version of the HTC One S, only available in Taiwan. It has the same processor as the Ville, except comes in a white body instead of the normal grey or black options and has 64GBs of internal storage. The other two have 16GBs internal storage. This phone is quite rare.
You should try RUUs only that say ville, and not VillePlus or VilleC2. These won't work and may even irreversibly damage your phone.
OTAs only work when you already have a previous firmware version. Let's say you were on ICS, a Jelly Bean FOTA is released (firmware over the air) and installs ("flashes") on top of your existing ICS installation, keeping your apps and data.
RUUs wipe all data and wipe everything on the phone when installing through a USB connection.
Could you specify what error code you get on the RUUs?
----
The reason why CM10 didn't boot is because you didn't flash the boot.img.
You need to extract the boot.img from the CM10 zip and put that into your "working folder" (the folder with adb and fastboot files in it)
Open up a command prompt / terminal in that folder and type
fastboot flash boot boot.img
when you are in FASTBOOT USB mode in the bootloader.
Go to Fastboot. Plug in your USB with the phone. Now, ctrl and r --> type cmd --> cd to C:/where your adb is --> fastboot read cid
Then type the 8 digit string that you get. It would help us determine your network provider.

[Q] Help with stuck logo & reboots.

I have a HTC sensation which I am trying to fix.
It was working fine and then did an OTA update and it would not boot again and would lock up on the HTC logo with a white background.
I did manage to unlock the phone, but it is still S-ON because I am unable to get into the phone normally to get revolutionary to detect the phone correctly because it cant find the phone in recovery mode.
I managed to get EXT4 recovery image installed which helped me flash the rom to cyanogenmod 10.1 but it will reboot every 5 seconds after it loads into the menu.
I did a super wipe and installed ARHD but it only gets to the beats audio logo before restarting.
I was unable to find the correct stock rom or the RUU because the CID is TELNZ which doesn't seem to have many stock rom files around.
I believe that if I can find the RUU_PYRAMID_TELNZ then it will help me fix the device, but I can't find it on the net.
I tried to write a super CID so I could flash any rom to it but it doesn't work:
C:\AndroidSDK\sdk\tools>fastboot oem writecid 11111111
...
(bootloader) vreg_set: request is duplicated id 14
(bootloader) pyramid_init_sd, SD card power on ok
(bootloader) sdcc_init_memory_device done
(bootloader) [FAT_ERROR] fat_open_file: can not find SMART_IO.CRD
(bootloader) [JAVACARD_ERR] SMART_IO.CRD cann't find
I tried to manually update the phone with (I had to edit the file and add TELNZ*** to it):
C:\AndroidSDK\sdk\tools>fastboot flash zip PG58IMG.zip
sending 'zip' (14242 KB)...
OKAY [ 3.087s]
writing 'zip'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
I also tried to put PG58IMG.zip on the SD card but the phone fails to update from the image with no error after it finishes "checking" the file.
Here is the info that I have gathered from the device:
Model: HTC sensation z710a
version: 0.5
version-bootloader: 1.18.0000
version-baseband: 10.14.9035.02_2
version-cpld: None
version-microp: None
version-main: 1.50.781.1
product: pyramid
platform: HBOOT-8260
modelid: PG5811000
cidnum: TELNZ001
battery-status: good
battery-voltage: 3912mV
partition-layout: Generic
security: on
build-mode: SHIP
boot-mode: FASTBOOT
commitno-bootloader: 9d24123f
hbootpreupdate: 11
gencheckpt: 0
What I am hoping to do is to get the device S-OFF and install ARHD Sensation 7.3 or a working install of cyanogenmod 10.1.
If anyone could offer me any help, that would be greatly appreciated.
**update 1**
I have found the reason that the roms are restarting constantly.
Basically the 1.18 HBOOT version I have is too low and causing issues.
I need to update to 3.33 but the revolution tool cant get root, so I am trying to use the Tacoroot method to try and get revolution to work.
The issue I am now facing is that I cant get past the first step because of this error: "failed to copy 'tacoroot.bin' to '/data/local/tacoroot.bin': Permission denied"
delete.....

Yeah i forgot that device you mention your device is still S-ON and that's why i removed my abov post but you can still flash GB RUU.. let me find..
You're s-on... Then you must flash boot.img of the ROM you're trying to flash, using fastboot commands:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then immediately reboot.

Thanks.
To go into greater detail, does this mean that I need to download hTC-Stock-FirmWare-3.33.401.6 (HBOOT-1.29.0000+boot.img+Radio+Recovery+etc.) and manually flash the boot.img via CMD?
What I have managed to do so far is run superwipe and install SENSEaY_XE35_v2.1.0 which is a modified GB rom.
I tried to then run the revolutionary method to get S-OFF but it always just corrupted the rom.
I also tried the tacoroot method but that corrupted the rom as well.
So for now I'm just leaving it with SENSEaY_XE35_v2.1.0 installed since that is the only thing that works and seems to be stable on the phone.

[HELP] HTC Sensation 4G Bricked?

Hi all! I have a bricked HTC Sensation 4G (T-Mobile) that I am trying to fix.
I need help with RUUing the HTC Sensation 4G. (Z710e)
I believe I have tried everything, all without luck, please help, TIA.
Heres the problem with the phone- It appears to be stuck in a bootloop, boots up to the white HTC screen, makes the HTC startup chime with Quietly Brilliant written under it, and then immediately reboots, and continuously does this over and over again.
Heres what I know about the phone
The Bootloader is Locked
The Phone is S-ON
The CID of the phone is HTC__621
Here's what I've tried
I have tried RUUing the phone with RUU_PYRAMID_ICS_TMOUS_3.32.531.14_Radio_11.69A.3504.00U_11.23.3504.07_M2_release_256085_signed.exe
since it is a T-Mobile HTC Sensation 4G. However I keep getting Error 130: Model ID error.
I also tried RUUing the phone manually using CMD, following the guide however this failed aswell, I kept getting "remote: 12 signature verify fail" at the end.
I also tried renaming extracting the rom.zip from the RUU, renaming that to PG58IMG.zip, placing that on my sd card and booting the phone into bootloader. However when I tried this it said checking PG158.img, but nothing happened, it just continued to boot up to the bootloader.
At this point I realized maybe that this RUU didn't match my CID, which was why it was failing. So I tried opening the ROM.zip file however it said it was corrupt in windows explorer. I then tried redownloading the RUU but it still kept saying ROM.zip was corrupt. I then opening ROM.zip with winrar and it opened up! I then opened android-info.text and saw that the cidnum for the RUU was T-MOB0101. I tried changing this to my CID (HTC__621) and then saving as instructed in this guide, however when I pressed on YES to update the files in the archive, winrar gives an error and says that the archive is corrupt, and does not update android-info.text.
I am not sure what else to try at this point, and I am stumped as to why none of the following methods I've tried worked. Is there something I am doing wrong? Is there anything I'm missing? Any help would be very gladly appreciated, as I am out of ideas.
Also worth noting, I've attached 2 pictures below as attachements to this post, (since I am new to xdadevelopers I cannot post direct links to images), one of the bootloader of the phone, including information such as my hboot version, radio version, etc. in case its needed.
I've also attached a picture below of what happens when I put the phone into HTC stock android recovery and press Factory Data Wipe/Reset. I get a bunch of errors, I'm not sure if this is related to anything but it doesn't look normal, so I attached a picture of it below.
Thanks in advance!

You can access bootloader so no problems here. Unlock bootloader through htcdev. In fastboot mode flash latest 4ext recovery, enable smartflash in settings, then flash a custom rom. You can also try Android Revolution HD rom if you prefer a stock look.

Thanks for the info! However I just tried unlocking the bootloader through htcdev but I keep getting an error at the end "Unlock token check failed". You can see this in the picture I attached below of the command prompt window. Any ideas? I tried resubmitting my unlock token on htcdev to make sure I didn't leave any extra spaces or anything but still got the same result. Thanks

Strange... Make sure you copy and paste right from the beginning to the end. You can also try to move your adb/fastboot folder somewhere else for example to the desktop and try resubmitting the token from there. (Might sound stupid but works sometimes). If not, you need to find the right RUU for your device and RUU it, then follow this guide for s-off: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26280760 there are some devices htcdev unlock doesn't work unfortunately...

Thanks again for your response, I just did it again this time with my fastboot folder on the desktop, however I still got the same error. How would I find the right RUU for my device? It is an american HTC Sensation 4G from T-Mobile with its CID: HTC__621. I haven't been able to find another RUU for it other than the one I used as previously mentioned in my original post. If anyone has the link to the right RUU I could use for this device, it would be really helpful. Thanks again.

Your firmware version (3.33.709.6) is an Asian one. Try downloading this ruu and run it: http://androidruu.com/getdownload.p...0U_11.24A.3504.31_M_release_266490_signed.exe

Hi, thanks again for your help! The RUU completed successfully this time!!! However, unfortunately, for some reason it is still bootlooping :/
When I turn it on, it shows the HTC logo, plays the little chime with Quitely Brilliant written under HTC, makes a very silent beep noise, and reboots. It keeps on doing this again and again.
Any ideas on what to do next? Why would the phone do this?

Well, I'm out of ideas now. At least the ruu worked. Try maybe the htcdev unlock again now. Get a new token and submit that. And go for the normal sensation option on htcdev site and NOT for the 4g

UPDATE!! I just got the phone to sorta bootup once! It booted up to a configuring android screen (in japanese) and then it shut right off, and started rebooting again. Why is the phone constantly and randomly rebooting like this? I've heard some people said it was the battery but the battery seemed to hold a fairly long charge in bootloader mode, so I don't see why this would be the issue. Anyways I will try an htcdev unlock now and see if that works, will update soon.
