HTC Magic RUU ? CPLD 6 RADIO-6.35.08.29?32A

Hi all,
I need to know if anyone knows where to find the HTC Magic RUU
device information:
dvt 32A SHIP S-OFF H
HBOOT 1.76.0009 (SAPP10000)
CPLD 6
RADIO-6.35.08.29
...
Does such a thing even exist?
Thanks, please help me!

a possible solution
I Have the same issue, I have trried almost everything out there,
the only thing that can access the phoe is fastboot,
My solution to this problem (which is not confirmed yet) is to update the image with the vanilla image (from megaupload ?d=MW8YLJ1V)
my problem now is that when i run
Code:
fastboot flash zip sappimg.zip
sending 'zip' (60946 KB)... OKAY
writing 'zip'... INFOadopting the signature contained in this image...
INFOsignature checking...
INFOzip header checking...
INFOzip info parsing...
INFOchecking model ID...
INFOchecking custom ID...
FAILED (remote: 42 custom id check fail)
the customer ID in the image is HTC__037
while my Vodafone Egypt's Magic customer ID is HTC__J45
if somebody can thankfully create a signed image with my customer ID, I'll try it on the phone and i might help

Hi, I think you need a goldcard. I still cant post link yet (8 post rules) so you will have to google "Android Goldcard", the first result from MoDaCo is good.
Just take note to reverse the CID in pairs
AB CD EF -> EF CD AB

[Q] Pyramid stuck in fastboot-loop

Hi there.
I've got an unbranded htc sensation device (manufactured for india). lat week i updated to cm9, and accidentally got a 1.29 hboot. after that I tried to flash the stock ICS for my pyramid. so, the situation is:
cid HTC__038
hboot version 1.29.0000
radio 11.24A.3504.31_m
openadsp v05.6.0.2226.00.0418
pyramid pvt ship s-on locked.
working adb, fastboot connection
i've got no working rom on the device, stuck in fastboot-loop.
there is no possibility to use revolutionary s-off because of hboot version 1.29, and because the non-working system (cannot put in debug mode)
i tried to flash the lastest 3.33 firmware, bit it still uses a previous version of hboot. (something messed up with signature check fail)
i cannot flash a non-official rom befause s-on.
do i have any possible steps to make my phone working with ics+sense?
all the answers will be "thanked" & btw sorry for my bad english

I actually did this, with the same results. Is it a possible way if modify the partitions by a partitioning software running on pc, and manually edit the partitions' files, changing them to the correct ones, came from the official rom.zip file? I think (dont hit me if i was wrong), this way I can bypass all the s-on and locked bootloader stuff, maybe I can downgrade from hboot 1.29 without wire tricks, and install the stock ICS for pyramid.
what about the PG58IMG stuff? I can modify the removable sd card's files, so i can insert PG58IMG things to root, the phone is actually reads it. what if I somehow inject the Unlock_code.bin into some kind of PG58IMG, and apply this way the unlocking?
could be anything of these upper is working?

Nope can't/won't work
We could try one thing... Try changing cid
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
Then ignore errors and reboot
fastboot reboot-bootloader
And check cid again
fastboot getvar cid
If it changed then you can very well flash European unbranded ruu and then boot to a working rom
If it not worked.. Then send a PM to FOOTBALL and ask for Indian ruu.. He might charge some minimal amount based on the scarcity of the ruu.. But if you got proper Indian ruu then you will come out of the boot loop fine

You have working adb when in boot loop?
Then you can try my temp-root and then jb SOFF process.. Link in my signature
Have slim chances of working.. But worth a try

cid change is done, now it's HTC_001.
i tried to flash RUU-Pyramid-ICS-hTC-Europe-3.33.401.53-Radio-11.76A.3504.00U-11.24A.3504.31-M-release-280871-signed's rom.zip from the temp, renamed to PG58IMG, copied to sdcard's root.
phone said: "lower hboot version"
is there any stock htc ROM with hboot 1.29?
if no, is it a possible way to change the zip to contain a 1.29 hboot version?
edit: i've got no bootloop, but at power-on I'm suddenly passed to fastboot screen without any boot process
but fastboot usb connection is always working, fastboot devices responses are always positive.

Awesome... That will solve our issue now
Do this copy the New PG58IMG zip file to your fastboot folder
And try these commands one by one
fastboot erase cache (if failed ignore it)
fastboot oem rebootRUU (black screen with silver HTC)
fastboot flash zip PG58IMG.zip (if failed stop there and don't do any thing else and simply paste back the output here)
fastboot reboot
Done
Edit: if the fail at third step is.. Something like.."Hboot pre update... Please flush the rom immediately again"] then repeat the third step again. (i.e this one fastboot flash zip PG58IMG.zip)

hmm this has some weird combination (modelid indicates that the phone is normal sensation ..but firmware version says that the phone is xe!!!) ..but lets see
download the XE version of the same RUU you've downloaded earlier (will have LE in its Name) and get the rom.zip and flash the rom.zip manually using the fastboot commands ive given you earlier

To change MID you need S-OFF. The RUU checks MID so if the 3.33.401.153 RUU fails try the 3.33.401.53 one

Ahh as suspected
What happened is you have somehow flashed sensation xe hboot and rest of them have normal sensation counterparts...
I need you to do something now... Download the universal 3.33 firmware from kohr-ah firmware thread in sensation development section..
Then extract the zip
Open android-info.txt file and replace version-main with 3.33.401.53
And save it
Also you have the rom.zip of the normal sensation 3.33.401.53 right.. Get the hboot.nb0 (the name will be big but the extension remains same) and replace the hboot.nb0 present in the firmware zip with this one..
Then remake the firmware.. PG58IMG.zip
Then try to flash this... Obviously it will fail.. But if that replaces the hboot you are having then all is well
So after the above exercise.. You need to try flashing normal sensation rom.zip again
Hopefully it works

[Q] bad CID - stuck in bootloader

In my quest to upgrade the hboot of my HTC One XL (evita), I accidentally used a tool intended for the the HTC One X (JFW Tool), and overwrote my CID to HTC__621. Now I'm stuck in the bootloader. Any help would be much appreciated (especially with the steps, I'm still a bit fuzzy on SuperCID, S-Off, bootloaders, roms and recovery). I think I was previously unlocked, running an unofficial CyanogenMod (because updates stopped coming around), and then I wanted to get on the OTA CM train, but needed to update hboot, which got me in my current situation:
Here's what my bootloader screen says:
Code:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** RELOCKED ***
EVITA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.09.0000
RADIO-0.17.32.09.12
OpenDSP-v28.1.0.32.0504

FASTBOOT (or FASTBOOT USB)
<VOL UP> to previous item
<VOL DOWN> to next item
<POWER> to select item
BOOTLOADER
REBOOT
REBOOT BOOTLOADER
POWER DOWN
And here's what I've tried:
tried setting CID to 11111111
tried flashing recovery (my TWRP recovery is not present anymore)
tried flashing hboot
tried running X-Factor exploits
ran the all-in-one tool to try and exploit and unlock
I cannot seem to get anything to work. Flashing anything generates a remote signature fail id error.
Please help me to get my phone back up again!
Thanks,
Dave

You tried all those things without knowing what you're doing? You must love to live life dangerously!
Your bootloader is locked.

In bootloader, use volume down to scroll to reboot and hit power button to select it. Then read forums on how to unlock bootloader.

Perfect, that's what I needed (I didn't know bootloaders could become "relocked".
So, I'm now back to where I was before, with a phone I cannot update to the latest CM10, because my hboot is too old (=1.09)
I've tried to follow all the instructions on these forums for updating hboot to 2.14, without any success:
Using Hassoon2000's all-in-one kit for the HTC One X (evita) and also from the command line, I've tried to directly install:
hboot 2.14
OTA_EVITA_UL_JB_45_S_Cingular_US_3.18.502.6_0.24p.32.09.06_10.130.32.34_release_3061616bcty3drvawwo01k (which contains 2.14)
It fails on signature or hangs. I tried this with bootloader locked and unlocked (thanks to Venomtester, I can now do this without difficulty), and from the bootloader, fastboot and htc screens (gold htc logo).
So any hints on how to get hboot 2.14 installed on this device? Failing that, (or perhaps instead of) I could even go back to a factory ROM and settings, if I could get some hints on this.
Thanks again,
Dave
PS: I have a feeling it may be malfunctioning due to that CID change I did. I tried to change CID back using the regular tool, and then used the instructions for hex editing the CID, all without success (adb shell doesn't work)

PS: I have a feeling it may be malfunctioning due to that CID change I did. I tried to change CID back using the regular tool, and then used the instructions for hex editing the CID, all without success (adb shell doesn't work)

What is your CID right now still the same?
use fastboot oem readcid to find out if you're not sure.

Okie dokie, so, your bootloader is unlocked at this point right?
If so, flash twrp 2.6: fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
Your CID shouldn't matter for right now, you should at least be able to flash a Rom at this point (obv. not cm10.1 3.4 kernel). Then we can work on SuperCID and S-OFF.

Thanks for all the help!
2.6 TWRP installed and working. Still running (extremely poorly, all kinds of flakiness: loses cellular data connection constantly) the 10.1 CM I was running before I embarked upon this upgrade.
What should I do next?
Cheers,
Dave

If I'm not wrong, you're gonna need to s-off to get to the newest cm nightlies because of RUU. So first you're gonna need SuperCID. Someone correct me of I'm wrong but I'm gonna say you need to
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
and then head over to the S-Off thread. I wouldn't do this just yet, because I'm not 100% sure, but if someone could confirm that'd be wonderful.

That command may or may not work.
The good news is, if it doesn't, since you have root and aren't on a 2.14 hboot it's still super easy
If that command doesn't work, boot to the rom you're using, make sure usb debugging is enabled. If you're using CyanogenMod, you'll also have to give ADB root access in developer settings.
Open command prompt in the folder you have ADB and do
adb shell
su
echo -ne "11111111" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=1 seek=20
then you should have superCID and should be able to S-OFF using the sticky in original android dev. section
when you type the su command, it may prompt you on your phone to allow su through adb so keep that in mind.

Excellent, you guys are the best! So, I have CID = 11111111, S-OFF.
What's the next step to getting back on the CM10 bandwagon? Or updating hboot? Or whatever I need to do next?

So I'm not sure what to do next. Flashing RUU doesn't seem to work. bootloader says I'm still S-OFF (whatever that means), now "RELOCKED", CID still 11111111, and hboot still 1.09.
Thanks again for taking me through this,
Dave

All you need to do is run the RUU as was intended. It's an exe file. Plug in your phone and start the program.

Use RUU not OTA, it is easier.
OTA would require stock recovery to complete and much more care with how stock things are.

Thanks everyone! I'm back on the CM10.1 bandwagon (with OTA updates!) and this HTC One X is working better than ever.
For other folks, here were my mistakes and stumbling blocks:
Don't use utilities intended for the HTC One X (Tegra 3) on the HTC One XL (evita). This is how I accidentally changed my CID. This might seem obvious, but when you're checking around these forums, you can frequently end up in the wrong forum.
ADB commands work when the phone is in its OS.
If the setcid command line doesn't work, use the line from exad.
Don't try and use the RUU flashing procedure (with the OTA .zip file) to flash the firmware, use the .exe file, and just execute it.
I did not (and still don't really) understand the difference and utility of RUUs, S-On/S-Off, unlocking the bootloader, hboot, ROMs, SuperCID, radios, ADB and fastboot commands.
Back to using my now very functional HTC One X (it was on the verge of a tragic high-velocity intentional disassembly).
Cheers,
Dave

I installed the maximus rom for htc one s,i installed the firmware for it,flashed the rom,i did everything but i went to recovery and it said 48mb storage.When i was using the rom i mounted it from the android its self and deleted the os(I was panicking). I read online and it said u have to install the recovery from the install package . So i installed the recovery file and got it back to normal. Today i panicked and put it on s-on. Then i tried adb side loading a rom and i couldn't figure it out so i went to fastboot usb and i did "fastboot flash zip Energyrom.zip" it didn't work and said failed so i went back to recovery and it is 48 mb again.I reflashed the recovery but that didn't work . What do i do i need my phone fixed asap. Please respond if you know the fix to the problem. (Im only 12 pleease help me). Thanks in advanced

Whats your hboot and what's your radio?
Sent from my HTC One S

my radio hboot is 2.16.0000
My radio is 1.20.50.05.16

How did you get the phone S-ON again? ?
I had the same issue as you for me it helped to install the TWRP 2.6.10 and then i made a sideload.
With any other Recovery your storage stays at 48mb you have to have this version of the TWRP recovery.
I will post some quotes as soon as the search function is avalible again.

Did you tried to flash it or did you flashed it? Its necessary to have it on your device with 2.16 HBOOT! Have you an working ADB on your computer? If not download it (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html).
Its much better than any toolkit. Error 99 just shows up because your SDK/ADB is outdated thats why its not working.
So first of all install the newest version of AndroidSDK (link above) then write back.

Sideload works just as i described in another post:

Just open up TWRP and choose the sideload option and then just follow the link above (type the commands in the ADB to sideload the ROM, the you just click on install .zip and choose the "sideload.zip" but remember you have to have S-OFF again after Flashing MaximusHD)

I Go on every day at 3:00 pm Eastern Time. Im going to try to side load the rom tomorrow
Edit: Also is there any way i can go back to how my recovery was ( With out sideloading ) So i can mount and flash instead ? Because im going to get a rom compatible with hboot 2.16 then put s-off again then im going to find out how to downgrade it back to normal. My only question is how do i install a ruu And which rom should i install it on.... Im going to get the rogers ruu for my htc one s.

1st of all only the maximushd ROM is compatible with the 2.16 hboot and not any other ROM yet. So you have to downgrade your hboot first. (i dont know exactly how it works but im sure you'll get help in this forum if you ask for it )
2nd: The right RUU for your One S depends on where you live for example (europe or "WWE" for world wide, or north america,) then you have to choose the right carrier for your phone but only if its carrier branded if not then take a non branded ruu.
Then you have to choose the version of the RUU for e.g. 4.1.1 for the latest one.
The right RUU for me would be the "OTA_Ville_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.16.401.8_1.11.50.05.28_10.27.50.08L_release_301852xf01hejl416oev96.zip" one
3rd you cant simply flash a RUU via recovery. A RUU is an .exe file for your pc and your phone has to be connected to your pc to flash it. If the RUU setup shows errors, like "hboot is too new/unknown" you have to downgrade your hboot manually before flashing a RUU.

Hi do you know any roms that are compatible withh hboot 2.16 that DONT need s-off because im going to s-off from that rom then downgrade my hboot so i cant run viper one s

Can u please help me find a rom that is compatible with hboot 2.16 and u dont need s-off ?

According to this thread, the Magiorom is compatible with 2.16 and S-ON. Give it a shot.

[Q] CM11 and Hboot 2.13

Will I be able to flash CM11 or any other KK ROM with Hboot 2.13? I have searched around without much luck, when I updated my Hboot, I got stuck with this strange version of it.
Thanks

Try upgrade your hboot to 2.15:
1. Download here
2. Move the file to the location of fastboot on your computer
3. Windows: Open fastboot folder and hold shift and right click, then select Open Command Window Here.
Mac: Open a terminal window and your fastboot folder alongside each other. drag fastboot from folder to terminal window
4. Get into fastboot mode and type the following commands
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip orig_hboot_2.15.0000.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
5. You should see Hboot 2.15.0000. If you had s-off with hboot 2.13 you will have it with 2.15
6. You should be able to flash cm11 nightlies now

Thanks for that, I'll give it a go.

OK, I got a fail
C:\fastboot>fastboot oem rebootRUU

Do the command again, when you flash your firmware.zip with fastboot, this first try fail but the second is good. I don't know it may be some kind of security

Hi Guys
Any confirmation with this one? Did it work?
I do also have similat HBoot 2.13.
Have a phone from "3" / Three UK network with this HBOOT.
I was able to do the S-OFF.
Previous CID: CID: H3G__001 (H3G_01)
Current state:
CID: 11111111
Bootloader (HBOOT) 2.13 version
Baseband is 1.11.50.05.28
TWRM 2.6.0.0
Model: PJ4010000
I have checked the zip file from this thread and found txt file with details:
modelid: PJ4010000
cidnum: HTC__001
mainver: 3.16.401.8
btype:1
aareport:1
hbootpreupdate:1
...
Should I change CID before proceeding with HBOOT upgrade?
I am really afraid cause flashing HBOOT causes most of the bricks?

You guys are either not reading much or dont know how to search. The assert check in updater-script for any ROM allows flashing for the following hboots: 2.13.0000, 2.15.4444 and 2.15.0000
It is like this from the beginning and it was stated several times. So you don't need to update any hboot if you're on 2.13.

Thanks Rapier. and I am sorry for taking your time. can I just clarify? you're saying that I can flash my phone with even kitkat (4.4) when I am on HBOOT 2.13? even when all threads are mentioning HBOOT in version 2.15/2.16?
really confusing for me. like I have missed something really basic over the last 3-4 weeks of reading this forum ?
