I assume you know how to get into CWM and flash roms.
1.Connect your Phone to PC and get into bootloader mode.
2. Download CWM 5.2.0.2 for NexusS from here. [Skip If you have CWM]
3. Download the stock rom for your device from here. copy to sdcard
4. Use "fastboot flash recovery <cwm_file_name.img>" to flash the correct version. [Skip if you have CWM installed]
5. Reboot into recovery and you will now have the correct CWM.
6. Install the Rom that you downloaded at step 3.
--->To install, go into recovery mode (Hold Volume Up & the Power button until the device boots to the recovery. )-->Choose RECOVERY
--> Here choose wipe data/factory reset
-->the choose "install zip from sdcard"-->"choose zip from sdcard"-->select the file you copied to sdcard in step 3 -->Choose OK.
7. Reboot phone.
8. Power off
9 Go into bootloader (Hold the Volume Up key and the Power key simultaneously)
10. Connect your USB cable to the PC and Nexus S (I assume you have ADB configured).
11. Open a command prompt, type adb devices. It will show a device ID. If it doesn't use this tutorial to configure ADB
12. Once you are in adb,a dn see the device ID, type this--> fastboot oem lock. It will ask for confirmation, say YES.
Post back if you face problems..
Voila, You now have a stock, unrooted Nexus S with Locked bootloader

This is how I rolled back to stock originally:
Here are the stock images for the NS:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
Do the typical stuff, grab all your stuff and then reset the phone
Flash the one you need via CWM.
Once flashed, you'll need to lock the bootloader. This will wipe the device. Make sure you have everything you need off the device before proceeding.
Power the phone down and boot it back up into the bootloader(vol up + power)
Open up adb and type : fastboot oem lock
Should be good to go.
Looks like we all replied one right after the other. lol

Yes. You're good. The only thing they'd be looking for once they boot it up is if the bootloader is unlocked.

does your boot loader have the tag **unlocked** ? only if it has unlocked tag you can install using fastboot else you get the error. unlock your bootloader, flash the zip/image, once done relock the bootloader if you need.
to unlock the bootloader using htcdev.. i need to update the software to 1.57.. and i am getting signature error ehile doing so using the patch provided earlier in the thread

Yes you need to update your boot loader. Download the RUU from HTCDev. run the ruu and check for the rom.zip file in temp folder. rename the rom.zip to PH06IMG.zip and update the zip file through bootloader(power + volume key method). Then your bootloader will be updated. Revert if any errors.
Dont use the patch, try the official version. It will work.
Hi hrishikol ,
i did a deodex to my phone app and now the chacha is stuck at the HTC logo,
can you please give me ideas on how to solve this problem?
i have installed CWM,in order to flush a ROM ,
but it is not functioning properly
The Guides above are incomplete ( missing a few steps ) and will result in boot loop most of the time. the correct procedure is :
Part 1 : Setting up Fastboot.
1. Make sure you have java installed, if not get it from here : http://java.com/ and install it.
2. Download the Android SDK manager from here : http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html ( get the exe download )
3. Install SDK manager, then run the android SDK manager.
4. Once launched it will show you available updates, choose ONLY these two "Android SDK Platform Tools and Android SDK Tools" and update them.
5. After update is complete close the sdk manager and go to the SDK manager platform-tools folder, normal path is : ( C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools )
6. Copy the following 3 files from this folder : "adb.exe" , "AdbWinApi.dll" and "fastboot.exe"
7. go to your c drive ( c:\ ) and make a new directory called "fastboottools"
8. copy the 3 files above into your fastboottools folder.
9. so now your should have a folder like this : "c:\Fastboottools" with the following 3 files in it "adb.exe" , "AdbWinApi.dll" and "fastboot.exe".
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That is it, Fastboot tools is setup. Proceed to next guide.
Flashing guide :
1. download the ROM from here:
ruu_chacha_htc_asia_wwe_1.57.707.2_radio_47.23.35. 3033h_7.51.35.19_release_228383_signed.zip
2. Extract and copy the system.img AND boot.img to the same directory as your fastboot tools "C:/fastboottools" ( make sure to copy both files )
3. Enter the fastboot mode on your phone by pressing volume down + power button after the device has been turned off.
4. Choose fastboot on the phone by pressing power button, and then connect your phone to your PC
5. Using fastboot tools, open the Command prompt and navigate to "C:\fastboottools" then run this command on cmd: "fastboot flash system system.img"
6. Dont reboot, Using fastboot tools, run this command on cmd: "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
( The two commands in step 5 and 6 are different, make sure to type each one correctly and to do them straight after each other )
7. Reboot phone. let it boot up, you will still get bootloop or error message.
8. Take out the battery.
9. Boot back into bootloader ( Volume down + power ).
10. Now choose recovery.
11. Phone should now reboot itself and bam, all should now work fine.

This is assuming that you have Android SDK installed on you PC. - Tutorial found here:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/adb-easy-tutorial/
1. Downloading the rooting-update zip file. Download the zip file from here - http://goo.gl/Om9aP
Now place this on your external sdcard. - Sorry this is a requirement at the moment, like I said this is a bit rushed.
2. Flashing recovery
1. Download this Recovery image. http://bit.ly/iLRAIV
(place this image in you SDK PlatformTools Folder, or which ever folder that contains your adb.exe)
2. If your device is locked, now is a good time to unlock it.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot reboot
3. Flash recovery Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery recovery-Tiamat-R4c-100611-1150-cwm.img
Once you have verification on your device that this has been flashed, reboot your device by holding volume up + power. Then 3 seconds after you see the Motorola logo, hit volume down. You should now see "Android Recovery" in the top left corner. Hit volume up to boot into recovery.
4. Flashing the Xoom-Universal-Root.zip file.
If you're in clockwork mod recovery you can continue (This recovery image will say it is clockwork mod) . If you're not looking at clockwork mod, then you need to repeat step 3 again.
In cwm, go into "install zip from sdcard" -> "Choose zip from sdcard", then select the Xoom-Universal-Root.zip file you downloaded.
Note: use the volume buttons to navigate and the power button to select
Reboot your device and then welcome to your rooted device!
As Always, If this was helpful-hit the Thanks!

This is for use only on the Wifi-Only Xoom HWI69 build. Check your build number before you install!!!
Please note the following information does contain official Motorola images from a non Motorola source. The information in this thread has been tested, however I can not confirm that it will work for every situation. In no way will I or xda-developers.com be held accountable for any damage resulting from using this information. Use the following with extreme caution.
1. Download the necessary files from here:
http://www.android.net/forum/downloa...?do=file&id=39
2. Unzip the files to the directory you will be running ADB from.
3. Enter the following commands into the command prompt
adb reboot bootloader
Xoom will then reboot into bootloader screen
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem lock
After the final reboot you should be back to stock, Locked and Un-Rooted.
im trying to install this ROM on my Sensation: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849 (ARHD) - the ICS version.
So im following the instructions it points to here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
So my phone was running stock gingerbread. So i follow the instructions.
I successfully S-off the phone.
Then i did the PG58IMG.zip thing --- successfully updates --- but now the phone is in boot loop?? it says there it should reboot to home screen? I can still get to the bootloader menu but recovery or any of those options dont work?
I have tried googling but all those threads get so technical. I AM A COMPLETE UTTER AND DISGUSTING NOOB.
Please can someone give me a step by step easy to understand directions to fix my phone? please please?
To be honest the same thing happened to me when i first flashed an ICS rom.
What i did was that i connected the memory card to my PC using an adapter and deleted the PG851MG file.
Then i moved on to flashing my ICS rom (Virtuous inquisiton) and it worked out quite good.
But traditionally it should boot back after flashing the firmware.It has never happened to me again.
Thats my experience. I dont thnk tat nething should go wrong, but still the phones at your own risk. Do go thru other posts in the forum b4 u do nething.

CWM means clockwork recovery mod.

Stop everything. I'll give you a simple solution.
Follow this step by step.
WRITE SUPER CID [YOU ONLY NEED TO DO THIS ONCE]-
1. Download adb tools here: download for WINDOWS or download for LINUX or from the attachments below
2. On your pc click on your local disk C: Drive (or D: drive for some) (WINDOWS users: Start > My computer > Local Disk (C)
3. Create a new folder called "adb" and extract the files from adb.zip into it. Make sure it doesn't create another folder in the adb folder when extracting
Manually put the phone in the bootloader/hboot mode
Navigate to fastboot by pressing volume down and pressing power button to select (power off > vol down + power on)
It will take you to the fastboot bootloader screen on your phone
Connect your phone via USB
Your Screen should now read fastboot USB
1. enter the command "fastboot oem writecid 11111111"
2. enter the command "fastboot reboot-bootloader (Wait for it to reboot the bootloader)
3. enter the command "fastboot getvar cid" [it should confirm your CID is 11111111]
4. enter the command "fastboot reboot"
5. You can now flash any ROM you like.
Quoted from here.

Updating the firmware
This step is MANDATORY otherwise you ROM will not boot. Please take a look at the firmware thread so you can understand what you are about to do.
After updating the firmware you will have the 3.32 firmware with unlocked bootloader. Which basically means that you can use advanced fastboot commands, such as: flash new radios and splashscreens
Download any firmware from here.
Copy the PG58IMG.zip file you've downloaded to the root of the sdcard. Root of the sd card mean that you can't put the file inside any folder. Also, you can't rename the file. Please keep the PG58IMG otherwise the bootloader won't recognize it.
Power off your phone or remove the batt and put it back again.
Hold volume-down + power button to boot into the bootloader
Wait for the firmware package to be found and confirm to update as prompted
Once it completed successfully and prompted you to reboot, pull the battery out.
Connect your SD card to the PC and remove the PG58IMG.zip file.

Download the zips for SuperWipe & your ROM and put them on your memory card.
Hold volume-down + tap the power button once to boot into the bootloader.
Press vol down to highlight Recovery and press the power button to select it.
Next, select Install zip from SDcard and touch to navigate to the location of the Super Wipe zip and select it.
Once it is done, you will be rebooted to Recovery. Again choose Install from SD card and this time navigate to the ROM and select it.
After the install is finished, go back to main recovery menu and select reboot.
That's it, you're good to go.
This will work, I'm a 100% positive on that.

The easiest way is to flash ClockworkMod recovery with fastboot and install Rom Manager. After that, download the CyanogenMod zip you want and flash it. Remember to select back up and wipe data. Those are the two toggle options in the flash screen.
It really isn't all that hard.

The easiest way is to flash ClockworkMod recovery with fastboot and install Rom Manager. After that, download the CyanogenMod zip you want and flash it. Remember to select back up and wipe data. Those are the two toggle options in the flash screen.
It really isn't all that hard.

I would recommend trwp, not cwm
and if twrp, the 2.3.3.0 seems to be the stablest one.
you have to be unlocked.
this is for s-off. for s-on go the same way with the extra steps at the bottom.
1. put the rom on your sd card and extract the boot.img from the rom
2. put the gapps for 4.2.2 on your sd card
3. turn off, turn on holding power and volume- button
4. connect your device via usb to your pc
5. install latest htc sync drivers
6. switch on your phone to fastboot usb (press power on hboot usb which is blue, it should turn into fastboot usb in red then)
7. download the all in one toolkit
8. download twrp 2.3.3.0
9. rename it to recovery and put it in the aio-folder where adb and fastboot.exe is located. put the boot.img into this folder too.
10. press right-klick when holding shift
11. open command line here
12. type in: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
13. on your phone, go to hboot usb again, than navigate with volume buttons to recovery and press the power button
14. your are in twrp now, tip on wipe, and wipe system, data and cache
15. go back to menu and go to "install"
16. install from sd
17. select the cm.zip and flash it
18. after this, flash the gapps
19. wipe cache and dalvik cache
if you are s-on:
20. reboot to bootloader
21. fastboot usb again
22. open the commandline again
23. fastboot flash boot.img
24. switch to hboot usb again
25. reboot
26. done

but you didn't cover upgrading the RUU. Do you have to do this? I tried last night and none of the firmware.zip files would work that were linked to in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2322755
I'm on cm 10.0

Yes, you have to upgrade.
The easiest way is to run a jellybean RUU.exe. Relock your bootloader and run the ruu.exe.
Then go through the steps of unlocking bootloader, installing recovery, flashing a rom, flash the boot.img.

Hi all,
Well I love my phone, just love it! BUT having bought it from China, like many I am stuck with the Chinese Model and firmware. Huawei Australia have assisted in unlocking the bootloader, now I am ready to root the phone. BUT, I have not had any luck sourcing a root method for it. Can someone please PLEASE help.
I am desperate as it keeps booting me out of Google Play Services, rendering my Huawei watch useless (ironic huh)
Any help would be appreciated. Email me if you like [email protected]

That sounds to easy, only question, how do I do that? Is there an instruction manual or guidance anywhere?
I have flashed other phones in the past but this one is stumping me.
I have looked for some of these methods only to be completing surveys that inundate me with spam and phone calls, only to be left without the downloads that I needed. Did I mention how much I love my phone?
Thanks again
Michael
Managed to root my phone.. even when I have updated the EMUI to B018, but there was an issue.. I tell you below
Step I follow from Chinese Forum below...
Preparation step :
1. download the tools from
https://www.mediafire.com/?9drsdo2f6hn4j34
2. Extract the content to your local. Note there are two folders :
- Folder 1 is for the tool that contains the TWRP recovery.img and the adb/fastboot tool,
- Folder 2 is for the original recovery
3. Copy the SuperSU zip to your phone (either in internal or external memory of your phone)
Installation step :
Step 0, unlock your bootloader (search around on how to do it)
1. Since I am using mac, somehow I don't need to install any driver, but if you using windows, install all the driver yourself
2. Enable the developer mode in your phone, and after that enable the usb debugging
3. Turn off your phone, and boot to fastboot (in off mode, connect the phone with your PC then press Volume Up and Power Button together)
4. Since now your phone has been connected to the PC, go to that Tool folder in respective of your OS, then overwrite the recovery with TWRP with fastboot command (install custom recovery) *note : for mac just add "./" in every command
- check the whether its connected : fastboot devices
- install TWRP : fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
5. Restart your phone and boot to recovery
- restart : fastboot reboot
- after reboot, turn off your phone
- reboot to recovery : turn on your phone by holding Volume Down with Power button
- Now you are at TWRP
6. Install SuperSU (root)
- Install SuperSU zip that has already been copied to your phone using TWRP (use the Install mode)
7. Reboot the phone
- Use reboot function in twrp
8. Profit
Theoritically the above things works but I have some issues following the above :
- After step 4, after recovery being flashed with TWRP seems like my phone Boot Partition is being overwritten too
- So when I rebooted the phone, it boot to TWRP instead
- So I tried to re-flashed the recovery with the original EMUI rom recovery (go to the folder "2.P8Max_Official_Recovery(For_restoration)" to find the original recovery.img). Also note that in the this folder, the adb and fastboot is only for mac. The one for windows use it in the tools
- This is done by going to fastboot again, then do command : fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
- This time using the original recovery
- Now when I rebooted the phone, it goes to EMUI recovery, then I just clicked restart to system or something
- After this, everything fixed, and I have SuperSU install and phone rooted
You can follow the above, but do it at your own risk, I am not responsible if your phone brick hehehe..

BTW you will get in a Bootloop if your dont know how to exit I would not root your phone!
Sadly, this does not work for me. I did everything you suggested and in the command window I get nothing
I know the risks ( I think)

Thanks so much for your concern, I know. But I love the phone but need to make it more Android (Google) friendly as it has Chinese firmware which keeps ending any relationship I have with google play services thus rendering the phone useless (almost)
You have been so helpful

The recovery img file link did you downloaded it?
You must download it and but the recovery.img file in fastboot folder
Then rename it to recovery.img.
And open cmd orders from fastboot folder .
Just type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You must download the recovery file into the same folder that you ran your command and in your case "p8 max root". Make sure that the recovery filename is recovery.img instead of some other names.

Hello,
I have twice but now I am stuck on the Huawei logo and powered by Android screen. I can boot into Stock Bootload but no longer TWRP
even though I have reflashed recovery twice. Just chinese language and the EMUI screen with the three options
I think it's time to unroot and flash a new system and do it like i posted, then it will work!
