It will ALWAYS show "relocked" after it has been unlocked, regardless of the order you do things in.

Hey,
Thanks for the reply. And trust me, I've tried for days to find it... but in the end, the effort was a waste. The reason I want it this badly is because it is the last piece of software required in the unrooting process of the Explorer. I was hoping you guys could help me out.
Here are the details as given in the phone..
Baseband version : 10.29.80.07H_1.10.81.17
Build number : 1.12.720.1 CL171430 release-keys

Hey,
I've read in many threads that if you run the RUU (ROM Update Utility)^ after the unrooting process, the *UNLOCKED* or the *RE-LOCKED* goes back to the *LOCKED* status... that is if you have the proper RUU. I'm yet to try it out because i've not found a proper RUU for my Explorer..
Hope it helps!
^ I'm not sure of the "Update" part of it... It could also be "Upgrade".

Ruus are provided by HTC. I don't know why xda hasn't given the ruu for your phone? If you were able to relock the bootloader, you could take an OTA over the air update. I think its similar to ruu.:thumbup:
after I unroot my HTC explorer.. will I be able to do a FACTORY RESET on the settings without having a boot loop?

Hi,
I'v got a htc sensation and I'm trying to root it, but after s-off the phone I'm stuck I followed step by step how to install recovery v5.0.0.8, turn off the phone, remove and reinsert battery, but after reboot into the Bootloader/HBOOT screen the phone never asked me " Do you want to start the update"
please...... please....... Help me!!!!!!!!
That's not to install recovery. You can install recovery through the ROM manager App. You can get to recovery through the Hboot screen by selecting recovery. It will only ask you to install an update if you are trying to flash a PDXXX.Img.
.
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.
What update are you talking about ? If you have s off and cwmd installed you can download a ROM of your choseing from within xda and once the down load is finished all you need to do is boot into recovery and wipe data and wipe ceche and scroll down to advanced and once inside you will wipe dalvick ceche and wipe battery stats once that is done scroll down to the bottom and click back and then scroll down to your download folder this is where you will find the ROM your going to install however before you install the new ROM make sure you back up your current ROM just incase somthing go's wrong you can go back to the original ROM you had previously good luck

Hi,
Have you left the PG58IMG file on your sd card?
After installing CWM,you need to remove that file,or else it will keep asking you to update every time you go into hboot.

STEP 2. To INSTALL Recovery - v5.0.0.8
1. Download recovery v5.0.0.8 for the Sensation HERE: or Multiupload
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 FUlly and reboot into the Bootloader/HBOOT screen (see post above on how to get to hboot screen)
4. Press Volume up to Accept when it asks" Do you want to start the update"5. Press Power Off to Reboot back to android after installation is successful (normal screen with homescreen)
----------------------------------------------------------------
In the post above( in red color, step 4 ) you can see which update I'm talking about.
And also with rom manager everything I'm trying to do, included a update cwm recovery, a window appear saying "an error occurred while atempting to run privileged commands!"
Does anyone know what it means???????
Thanks everyone

Make sure u still have S-off and that ROM manager has super user permissions.

Copy the PG58IMG file into the Root folder of your SD card
Do you have the PG58IMG file in your SD card?
It should be
/sdcard/PG58IMG
Then after it updates, you need delete it, otherwise you will keep update and update.
Using ROM Manager to achieve CWM recovery is bull**** since u need cwm to flash the su file in order to gain root. And ROM Manager wont work without root.
Place the PGxxxx file in root of sd, shut down phone, pull/reinsert battery, go into bootloader by pressing volume down+power, when asked for update press volume up. When its done reboot phone normally and u shud be fine.
Remeber to delete the PGxxxx cuz everytime u go into bootloader it wants to apply the Update.

How? I understand your question because that is exactly where I am stuck on...but none of the answers to your posts clarified anything for me. HELP!
I wanted to flash to ARHD 6.3
This is my first time.. I managed to S off.. But then the bootloop began after I flashed PG58IMG.zip via fastboot.
Step 1. To S-OFF your Sensation - (You do not need to do this if you have S-off already or done this before) - WORKING NOW for TMOUS users
Visit
download the application for your operating System. AND EXTRACT IT TO A FOLDER
YOU MAY NEED TO DISABLE YOUR ANTIVIRUS PROGRAM- Norton is flagging up Revolutionary as a Virus when it isn't
IMPORTANT
Fill out the form under the download links with your OS, Device, Hboot Version and Serial number. This will give your beta key to enable you to S - OFF. Make a note of this.
How To get your Hboot Version - 3 methods below
1. [/url] and if it has found your device it should read
"Found your Device: HTC Sensation Z710* Applications -> Development)
4. With the phone switched on (not in HBOOT, just the regular home screen), plug in your USB cable and select HTC sync mode.(IGNORE any warning messages on your phone telling you it cannot find HTC Sync )
5. Launch revolutionary.exe. It should detect the phone and ask for your beta key. Type it (BE CAREFUL, as its case sensitive) or copy and paste it in.
If Revolutionary fails to find your phone verify you have all the drivers installed, try disk drive mode or charging mode (Linux users can use disk drive mode. Confirmed to be working by others)
6. Once you have entered your beta key correctly, follow any on screen prompts or actions from revolutionary and wait for it to S-Off,
7. You're done. Your Device will Successfully have S-OFF....if it hangs on method 3 and doesn't S-Off. See post 2 below for solutions.
IF REVOLUTIONARY SAYS FAILED YOUR PHONE IS NOT SUPPORTED. Go back and check hboot using the methods above. some users are told its failed and they still have S off now. If you have S-off your hboot will now be 1.17.1011 and revolutionary will tell you now your device is not supported
8. Revolutionary will now ask you to Install clockwork recovery mod after S OFF. Type N and install it manually below (the recovery provided is v4.0.1.4 doesn't charge when device is switched off, the one below v5.0.0.1 does charge)
9. Your Device now is S-off.
To install clockwork recovery for the sensation. Follow step 2!
STEP 2. To INSTALL Recovery - v5.0.0.8
1. Download recovery v5.0.0.8 for the Sensation HERE: or Multiupload
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 FUlly and reboot into the Bootloader/HBOOT screen (see post above on how to get to hboot screen)
4. Press Volume up to Accept when it asks" Do you want to start the update"
5. Press Power Off to Reboot back to android after installation is successful (normal screen with homescreen)

oh i've read that as well so i have deleted it manually by using sd adapter.. then reinserted it back n tried to boot normally.. but to no avail.. what's the root cause of this eh?
when i gained s off, i still can boot into my ROM.. however disaster happens when i flashed the .zip files obtained as per instructions..
oh but directly after i've flashed it, i didn't remove the .zip files n tried to immediately reboot into ROM.. does this make a difference?

good question..
immediately after s off, i boot into my ROM and tried to install busybox and other apps that requires superuser or root but failed and stating that my device was still not rooted..
so i proceed to install a recovery (in this case its ext4 recovery) but failed to find a .zip installer (but managed to find the .apk and .img version but afraid to proceed considering the extension wasn't the same as per guide's PG5...ZIP). so i tried to simply install cwm as per stated in the guide. coz i know after recovery is installed, only then i would be able to install the su zip files.
then it boot looped.. n here we are trying to shoot all of these troubles.. XD
and if my understanding was wrong, pls correct me. thanks!
only after you sent me the links i managed to install ext4 recovery via a much easier method using cmd.exe..
n that also means that i wasn't even able to follow through the supercid part of the guide..

wait a moment, i dont know if things are making more sense to me but, is it possible that this was caused by a wrong firmware? i just figured out my cid and its htc_044 and there are 4 different version of firmware for this cid, so should i try each of it until my phone boots to my original ROM?
Update: Oh God, I'm in such a relief! Thank God it works now. I flashed the firmware 1.17 n now am able to boot back into my ROM. Now i'm gonna get things backed up n will proceed. phew thanks so much for helping me out. The cause was maybe the zip files werent compatible with mine. So i check my cid n mid, n downloaded what might be the original one. so now its fixed..

PG58IMG_CWM.zip ( use Method 2 ) , rename it to PG58IMG.zip , latest non-touch version April 2012 link by EddyOS
CWM 5.0.2.0 http://www.axifile.com/en/EC384AC809 ( md5 is : 85b5f10c9afe33fb50396bd5f54bc7de ) , rename to PG58IMG.zip ( use Method 2 )
5.0.2.0 PG58IMG.zip is HERE ( use Method 2 )
there is a link in here ( Guide to S-Off, Unlocking, Root, etc ) for a 5.0.2 PG58IMG.zip , this zip is reported by lot of users not working with them ) , i guess super cid may solve that problem if it is a cid or mid problem
to manually install , here is recovery-clockwork-5.x.images ( to be installed from PC and device in fastboot , usb debugging enabled , fast boot UN-ticked in Setting \ power menu ) :
File format is { recovery name }.img , and you should use Method 1 for this file format
CWM v5.0.0.8 is always Proved working
CWM 5.0.2.0 ( use Method 1 )
CWM v 5.0.2.0 ( use Method 1 should work )
Downloads for4EXT Recovery
tip : 4EXT touch Recovery has more options , i recommend after S-Off to install CWM safer ( because Revolutionary install it after S-OFF , and i 'd rather go by the book for S-OFF procedure , much safer ) , then after install SU and Rom all finished and your Rom settles , then move to 4EXT later on
if you are Rooted " SU installed " , install 4EXT Recovery Updater or 4EXT Recovery Control and it will download and install 4EXT automatically for you
PG58IMG_4EXT.zip ( use Method 2 , April 2012 link by EddyOS )
or 4EXT recovery v1.0.0.5 ( use Method 1 )
or Go to 4EXT thread and there's a direct download for a version you can flash via fastboot ( use Method 1 )
or Download the user-friendly 4EXT Recovery touch flashing tool and read the guide inside ( link by joaquinf ).
Flash 4EXT Recovery using either Method 1 or Method 2 ( according to the Downloaded file format )
Alternative method for flashing 4EXT Recovery is to flash ARHD ICS Custom Rom , it will install 4EXT recovery during ARHD Rom installtion
Installation Problems
in case fastboot commands is not working :
uninstall htc sync then uninstall new htc drivers that comes with it , and install Old htc driver download link for HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe
uncheck fast boot under setting \ power or simply remove battery and put it back and boot to boot loader
start cmd as admin , disable firewall if needed , remove conflicting software or APK's
there is a new version of CWM 5.8 touch version , it has bugs now , so don't use it until those Bugs are fixed ( it also may prevent installing of ARHD ICS Rom or usb connection )
for PG58IMG.zip that give error , edit android-info.txt without extracting the zip file to include your cid and mid ( using Notepad++ or maybe notepad ) , and use ( Method 2 )
to edit android-info.txt , read this title " How to edit the android-info.txt File via Windows " in hereUser Friendly Firmware Upgrade
Installation Methods
if you install CWM recovery through revolutionary while S-off ( or connected to it later on ) , it will install an old version i think CWM 4.x . this old version will not charge device if it is powered off, So better immediately install CWM 5.x , ( Note that 30 min to 45 min with me to install )
if you are Rooted " SU Installed "
if you are Rooted " i.e SU installed " and in case of reinstalling or updating custom recovery , install Rom Manager ROM Manager APK from the Market ( free or Pro ) or 4EXT Recovery Updater or 4EXT Recovery Control and let it install latest Custom Recovery automatically
Method 1 :
if you are using Recovery.img ( i.e ???.img ) then from your PC using ADB tools download for WINDOWS or download for LINUX and the device should be in fastboot usb .
Put recovery.img from zip file inside ADB tools Folder ,
start cmd as administrator and navigate to ADB tools folder which includes fastboot.exe
execute fastboot flash recovery recovery.img , then after installation is finished execute fastboot reboot-bootloader
Method 2 :
the file name should be PG58IMG.zip , make sure of that ( not PG58IMG.zip.zip
if your are using a downloaded PG58IMG.zip ( i.e .zip ) ( it is not a file that you rename and compress by yourself !!!!! ) , then place it into SD card and install it from bootloader as usual update
if it gave you cid or mid error , then you can either super cid and use it
or if you don't want to do that you can modify the PG58IMG.zip , it has android-info.txt file inside it ( which determines on which mid and cid's devices it is allowed to be installed )
you can modify the android-info.txt to include your cid and mid , and it should work
don't extract the PG58IMG.zip , just open it in winrar and modify the android-info.txt file only ( add cid and mid ) using notepad++ ( drag it to desktop , modify then drag it inside winrar window again to replace the existing file and press ok )
Method 3 : you can also try Android Flasher or HTC 4G All-In-One Toolkit or [TOOL] HTC Sensation/XE/4G Super Utility (all in one) by kgs1992 if you like ( do it at your own risk , i didn't try it personally )
Method 4 : you can extract ????.img from the zip ( PG58IMG.zip ) and flash it as in Method 1
How to Boot into Custom Recovery From PC without installation
File format is { recovery name }.img
Download ADB tools download for WINDOWS
Put recovery img { recovery name }.img inside ADB folder in same place your fastboot.exe
{ recovery name }.img is the exact name for the downloaded recovery img that you put inside the ADB Folder
it is NOT PG58IMG.zip recovery
Start cmd as administrator and navigate to ADB Folder which includes fastboot.exe and type the command fastboot boot { recovery name }.img and press enter
your phone should now go to recovery screen ( loaded through fastboot )
2) Stock Recovery
You can use Android Recovery Manager to download and install your stock recovery
try also this link http://vi8.info/HTC-Sensation/Stock-Recovery/
or extract Stock recovery from your RUU.exe as follows
extract Rom.zip from RUU.exe as in this thread How To Debrand / Rebrand Your Sensation
open Rom.zip in and extract recovery
Usually Stock Recovery is flashed according to Method 1
or prepare it in a PG58IMG.zip and flash it ( if you know how to do it ) and flash it according to Method 2 , i didn't try this myself

I have the 3.0.0.13 drivers for Win7x64, got them from here but can't find the thread now.
This is good work by the way, thanks for doing it. Have you looked into this? I think this guide is a good qualification.

Zip file is corrupt , and it should be around 13 MB in size
HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe is the Drivers used by Revolutionary ( this is the one to be used always not the newer driver versions )
you can think of newer htc drivers as the newer htc software that is Patched to prevent certain commands or software execution
for example , lot of members had errors connecting to Revolutionary until they remove htc newer drivers and install the Old one HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe as i always advise of that to when using Revolutionary , i guess it would be the same in fastboot for full support of commands

Not corrupt, it is the "naked" driver package and only for Win7x64. Good points about the other driver, always best to have various options since one size does not fit all.

you can try to flash it , it should work without flashing Firmware
if your hboot is 1.27.0000 then this is the locked bootloader ( if in this case it shows unlocked for hboot 1.27.0000 , then you unlocked it with htc dev or super tool ) . this is not required with S-OFF devices , and if you done that then relock bootloader again and flash firmware 3.32 again ( better to start clean before flashing ICS again )

I'm trying to install Recovery.img through method 1. For some reason it keeps telling me that it's <waiting for device> (in CMD, all files in the correct place), thus it's not able to find it. I've tried to load it in bootloader, same problem. There is no way of updating a program through Bootloader for me, and if there is I have no idea how to do this (Method 2). Any suggestions?

you will not be able to install custom recovery with you bootloader locked
you have to unlock bootloader before trying that , there is a method to unlock bootloader without losing warranty in the link i gave you in ARHD thread
if you unlocked your bootloader and have this error then :
it is better to use Method two from bootloader
uninstall htc sync then uninstall new htc drivers that comes with it , and install Old htc driver download link for HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe
uncheck fast boot under setting \ power or simply remove battery and put it back and boot to boot loader
start cmd as admin , disable firewall if needed , remove conflicting software or APK's
disable firewall
read title " Installation Problems "
i also posted in ARHD thread a second reply to you with a link in it , please read it
Just noticed it, sorry for taking your time . Used to work with my old HTC Touch HD, thought this would be easier to understand, guess not haha. I'll be unlocking the phone now.
EDIT: Unlocked and custom recovery installed.
EDIT2: Everything works, installing the latest ARHD, should go smoothly from now on! Thanks a lot for your help, tutorial and patience trkaa! Work from you guys is greatly appreciated!
Hmm... After I unlock my bootloader I should install the recovery, correct?
How can I boot my phone into fastboot?
What commands do I use to install the recovery via fastboot?
I'd like to backup my current rom without Root, do I need to root first to install the recovery?
Can't Install any recovery
hi people sorry if this question has already asked..
i'm stuck on bootloader and i'm not able to install any recovery.. i install the last RUU from HTC and my bootloader is unlocked and i'm S-ON..

hey guys, i am trying to root my inspire. When i ran the Ace Hack kit, it gave me the error saying ...
********* Radio Downgrade failed ***********

** Goldcard failed

Press any key to continue . . .
i made sure the antivirus was disabled, removed apple software, 2 pcs, 2 sync cable and will be trying another SD card, but im stuck. Also i tried to boot in HBOOT but no luck either. The HBOOT screen came up but no luch on trying to load the img file. Please assist me if you can, Thanx
Probably an SD card that can't be used as a gold card. Get another SD and try again.

That is due to corrupted sdcard. Anyway, you can unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery and root without the Hack Kit (take into consideration that is has been discontinued as so has the files and support) Check my signature for doubts

OK, I try to unlock bootloader now. But I got stuck to this (same problem with other guy in this forum, but no lead):
My ROM Software Numbre is 3.13.707.4, and the RUU tool (PD9810000_Ace_Sense30_S_hboot_2.00.0029.exe) displayed the same number. The option I was given was "Update the current ROM version." So I clicked update and it says "From Image Version 3.13.707.4 To Image Version 3.13.0.0". I clicked next to proceed. Then I get:
ERROR [190]: ROM IS NOT UPDATED
Your ROM version is not the latest version.
Please upgrade to 3.13.707.3 to apply this RUU to be able to unlock your bootloader. On your phone, go to Menu > Settings > About phone > Software updates > Check now. After you have updated, please run the RUU again to upgrade your HBOOT to unlock your phone. Click Exit to quit.
At this point I went back to the phone and performed the "check now", but there are no other updates.
I have google for this (ROM 3.34.707.3) but leads to nothing... no problem solving at all...
Stuck again now....
Updated :
Finally I can root my phone...
Problem described above, can be solved by update the Hboot version manually check this :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2252161
I can download update Hboot files from the link in there...
Then I continue with unlocking bootloader as describe in your signature (using easy unlock tools) then continue to flash CWM and SU using easy ace hack tools... Wow your tools is very easy to understand for a noob like me
Now, since i already have root access, it should be enough for me...
But just curious, how to gain S-Off access from here... I still not clear enough about S-off and S-On difference, what exactly advantages to have S-Off?
Please help me!
Hi Victasa:

I followed the link into your post, but I have a problem, I speak Spanish, and do not understand English well :crying:. Please can you tell me exactly how you did it?

Hi Decasys, follow this step :
*Unlock boot loader with htcdev/bootloader
see your HBOOT version : you face problem describe on this thread if your hboot ver is 2.00.0027 you have to download file as below to achieve version 2.00.0029 because it support token key for unlock.
1. download this rom copy to your c:\ drive : http://www.mobfirmware.com/dl/behtash/imei dhd/rom.zip
2. then download : http://www.mobfirmware.com/dl/behtash/imei dhd/dhd update hboot by behtash.rar
3. run hboot update by behtash.bat in normal mode ,waiting until flash hboot complete
at this point your HBOOT will be upgrade to 2.00.0029 (check it)
*Then continue to use :
Easy unlock tools, follow insctrution in this therad : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2133336
at this point, on your bootloader, it will have "unlocked" notification on the top
*Then continue to use :
Easy Ace root tools, on this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2169515
When you run it, just choose to flash CWM (as I remember it was option #2)
And then continue to flash SU (as I remember it was option #3)
That's all, you gain root access.

Update again...
Seems the way I get the root access can't use to install custom ROM.
I try to install cyanogenmod as in this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2073992
But seems after do all the steps to install a custom rom there, my phone was stuck on HTC logo...
Fortunately, I have do nandroid backup, so I can restore to stock roms...
What i want to ask is, why my phone can't install custom ROM now? I know that I still has S-ON, but is that the cause? If yes, is there any possible way for me to get S-Off and install a custom ROM?
glevitan, i need your help again I think :angel:
Update again :
After checking on some place, apprantly i still left some steps
this one :
Flashing roms with an unlocked bootloader
Unlock your bootloader and flash a custom recovery (CWM or 4ext)
Download the rom zip file you are willing to flash to your PC.
Extract the the boot.img from inside the zip file (do not extract the whole rom)
Put the zip file in your sdcard.
Boot into recovery and do a full wipe (wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, format system)
Flash rom (install zip from sdcard)
Reboot into bootloader again and plug the phone to the PC.
You need to be in fastboot usb (if you see HBOOT USB PLUG in the phone, just press power to toggle)
Open a cmd/terminal and navigate to where the boot.img file is located.
Type: fastboot flash boot boot.img
Reboot and now you should be enjoying your custom rom
Finally I can enjoy my custom rom
Finally.
Finally.
I did it. I followed your instructions and I have root my phone.
I'm using the Custom ROM JellyTime and works perfectly.
Many Thanks for your help.

ok, well have you tried relocking your bootloader and flashing RUU package back to full clean stock? if you`ve already done that properly (not by flashing some custom stock rom through recovery) then I guess its a repair shop job.

1st you need to find your firmware version, boot into bootloader and the info is there and then download the appropriate RUU package as these are region specific, I can tell you how to do it without much hassle so long as you have adb setup on your comp already and the unlock token or application used to unlock your bootloader.......
you can find all the RUU packages for pico here : http://www.androidruu.com/?developer=Pico
tell me which 1 it is and I`ll extract the files needed to be able to update it via sdcard

ok I have the specific RUU package for your region downloaded and I`ve extracted the rom.zip from the package, now I`m in the process of uploading the file for you. So you have adb working? the unlock token you used to unlock your bootloader or utility that will do the same job?
Ok here`s the full procedure for you
Download the the full firmware stock rom from here: http://www.freefilehosting.net/pj03img press "DOWNLAD THIS FILE" then enter the captcha, the file name is "PJ03IMG" do not modify it in anyway.
Copy the PJ03IMG file to the root of your sdcard (not in any folder)
Boot to Bootloader and connect usb to phone and computer, open CMD on windows or Terminal on Linux and type the following:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
you should now see on the phone that your bootloader has been "re-locked" if you see that you can now press the power button on phone to change to bootloader (mode see attached pic 1 at the bottom), now the phone will look for files on your sdcard (see pic 2 attached at the bottom)
at this point it should find the PJ03IMG file and a loading bar will appear on the right hand side, be patient it takes about 30 secs to load it. When its finished it will ask if you want to flash the update or not, use the volume keys to move the selector to yes and press the power button and the process will begin to totally reflash your phone back to stock once done it will ask you to reboot phone, voila done. the first boot will take some time as its a fresh install so give it afew minutes to get to homescreen, assuming all is well and phone is working as it should we can get a recovery back after unlocking the bootloader.
