problem in root htc desire vc - General Questions and Answers

>> I had the sample problem but i installed the HTC Sync Manager and then it worked.
It seems that the USB drivers of the device are not in the SDK from Google but in HTC's software.
i didn't understand how to "run the recovery bat file...while connecting the phone in fastboot usb mode." or "run bat file from desire vc recovery to install recovery.(phone in fastboot mode)"
EDIT: I've successfully rooted my phone!
Here is what you have to do:
1. Unlock bootloader (following htcdeveloper's instructions) - It took me sometime and i got stuck with the "waiting for device" for a while but then i installed HTC Sync Manager and i could finish that 1st step successfully. (When i go to the bootloaed i can see "Unlocked")
2. Copy the file "recovery.bat" (which was a chinese file "点我运行.bat" so i had to rename into "recovery.bat") at the root of the internal memory and i also put the folder "files" (which was with it from the .rar i downloaded) including: adb.exe / AdbWinApi.dll / AdbWinUsbApi.dll / fastboot.exe / recovery.img
(i'm not sure that is useful but i did it)
3. Copy the file "root.zip" at the root of the SD Card BUT rename it "update.zip"
4. Selected the "debugging mode" and "disk drive" as choice per default when i plug the USB cable
(i'm not sure that is useful but i did it)
5. I restarted the device and go to the bootloader. (Pressing both "Power button" + "Volume -")
6. The menu is : Hboot / Fastboot / Recovery / Factory reset / Simlock
Choose "Fastboot" and plug the USB cable ("Fastboot" became "Fastboot USB")
From your computer, launch "recovery.bat" file, a window will appear, press "Enter" and wait a few seconds.
my problem is here only.after i pressed enter .i am not getting any chinese menu on my phone.please help

[Q] Phone wont go into CWM recovery mode

I have used the S-OFF method and my phone is S-Off but when I try to go into Recovery mode from Hboot it sticks on a white screen with HTC in green across it, how can I get around this, any help?
Hallo,

I hope that is it .... have luck
do i have to have the whole folder on my SD card? Or just the recovery file, or leave it zipped?
You leave the zip zipped.don't extract it because you will break the signature.

This is what I did and helped me ;
'Fast Boot' to download if you do not have it yet. If you already have the Android SDK on the computer then there fast boot in the folder 'Tools'
Remove device Unignore battery, insert battery again (do not connect device to PC!)
Put device into bootloader (by volume down button + power button (hold down both), the boot loader screen 'fast boot' Select
Device via USB to PC
the 'fast boot' zip and unzip the pack Inalt together with the 'recoveryImageName.img' in a folder
CMD (in the search field 'cmd' type, ENTER) (Windows command prompt) on the PC

4. Flashing RUU manually
4.1 Getting PG58IMG.zip from RUU
Run the RUU executable as you normally would, but don't proceed to the second step i.e. when a second window appears, do nothing. Do not proceed, just ignore it for now, but don't close the window.
- Right-click the Windows Start button and select "Open Window Explorer" option.
-
- If you use Windows XP
Copy-paste this in the navigation bar:
Code:
C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Local Settings\Temp\
- If you use Windows Vista/7
Press & hold Windows key on the keyboard and then press R (Win key + R). Once the box pops up, copy paste this:
Code:
%temp%
- Right click anywhere inside explorer window (not on any folder) and select Sort by then select Date.
- Locate the latest one created (first in the list & it will most likely have random numbers in the name) & open it.
- You will find a second folder with a set of random numbers. Open it, inside you will find a number of files and the rom.zip
- Copy the rom.zip file to another location.
- Now, close the RUU executable folder & rename the rom.zip file as PG58IMG.zip
4.4 How to flash PG58IMG
4.4.1 Without a PC, via bootloader
- Put the PG58IMG.zip onto the root of your SD Card
- Reboot to bootloader by Holding Vol down + Power button

When you are on stock look on settings - > Info - > and check for updates.
If there aren't any updates, then your phone hasn't received it yet in your country.
Then you will have to wait for the update...

Root your android 4.2 , for beginners, all steps

ALL DATA WILL BE LOST , BACKUP EVERYTHING
I RECOMMEND USING TWRP CUSTOM RECOVERY
Getting started
In order to root Android 4.2 the following three requirements must be satisfied beforehand:
The Android SDK, which you can download from Google Developers
A custom recovery like ClockworkMod (CWM) or Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP)
SuperSU, which you can download from CF-Root
There are no major differences between the two, but TWRP is more touch-oriented thanks to larger buttons. CWM is also available in a touch-compatible variant, but it has much smaller buttons. It's a matter of personal preference between the two though, but you have to choose one.
Before starting the process I urge you to perform a backup, as all data might be lost afterwards. You can copy the contents of the SD card to a safe external location such as cloud storage service or computer hard drive.
Setting the Stage
The first step that needs to be performed after all the files are downloaded is to install the Android SDK. Afterwards open the Android SDK Manager and select the following two items:
Android SDK Platform-tools -- it contains the required programs to install Android 4.2 Jelly Bean
Google USB Driver -- it contains the necessary drivers for the Nexus device
Then you should create a folder in an easily accessible location within the command line. In this example I will use a folder named "Root" in my C:\ drive in Windows. The path name will therefore be: "C:\Root".
From the folder where Android SDK Platform-tools is installed (in my case it is "C:\Program Files x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools") copy the following files to the previously created "Root" folder:
adb.exe
AdbWinApi.dll
AdbWinUsbApi.dll
fastboot.exe
The following files must also be copied to the "Root" folder:
CWM-SuperSU-v0.97.zip -- SuperSU file
The custom recovery that you previously downloaded for your specific device (please see below)
For my Samsung-made Google Galaxy Nexus (codename "maguro") I will use TWRP with the name "openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-maguro.img".
Depending on your device the name of the file that you must copy may differ.
In order to make the process smoother for instance the SuperSU file can be renamed to "root.zip" and the custom recovery to "customrecovery.zip". It's a matter of convenience, but for accuracy I will stick to the original naming for this guide.
If the previous steps are completed you must have the following six files in your "Root" folder:
adb.exe
AdbWinApi.dll
AdbWinUsbApi.dll
fastboot.exe
CWM-SuperSU-v0.97.zip -- SuperSU file
The custom recovery. In my case it is "openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-maguro.img"
From there, you can proceed to install the drivers for "fastboot mode". To install them, follow these steps:
Power off your Nexus device.
Press and hold Volume Up and Volume Down then press and hold the Power button; the device will now enter "fastboot mode".
Go to Device Manager (Computer -> Properties -> Device Manager in Windows 7/8) and identify the device; for me it shows up as Android 1.0.
Right click Android 1.0 and select "Update Driver Software," then select "Browse my computer for driver software".
Select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer," then click "Next".
From "Have Disk..." option go to the folder where you have Google USB Driver installed (for me it's "C:\Program Files .(x86)\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver") and select "android_winusb.inf".
Out of the three options select "Android ADB Interface" and validate any future warning window to install the driver.
Final preparations
Everything is prepared in order to start the installation process, but in order to do so a command window must be opened. Windows Key + R opens "Run"; type in "cmd" and the command window appears. Typing "cd C:\Root" and pressing Enter sets the "Root" folder as the working directory. Pressing the Shift key and right clicking inside the "Root" folder will also deliver the same result.
The device must be turned on in "fastboot mode" which I have explained at step no.2 during the driver installation process, and obviously plugged-in to the computer. You then have to type in the following commands while in "fastboot mode":
fastboot devices -- this is just for verification purposes; if there is no listed device then the drivers have been improperly installed and steps 1 through 7 must be redone.
fastboot oem unlock -> you have to accept the prompt in order to continue -- this command will unlock the bootloader, but it will also erase the data on the device which is why a backup is necessary.
fastboot reboot-bootloader -- this will reboot the bootloader.
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-maguro.img -- this will flash the custom recovery --please use the specific file and name for your particular Nexus device!
fastboot erase cache -- this will erase the cache -- might not be necessary but it's just as a precaution.
fastboot reboot -- this will reboot the device.
After Android 4.2 is loaded and running the SuperSU file must be copied from the "Root" folder to the internal storage (shows up in Windows Explorer as a Nexus device). A simple copy and paste will do the trick here.
Then you have to power off the Nexus device and enter "fastboot mode" again. Use the Volume Up and Volume Down keys to navigate until you can select "Recovery Mode". After the power button is pressed the device will reboot in the new custom recovery.
Rooting your Nexus device
If you have ClockworkMod installed, you have to perform the following steps:
Select "install zip from sdcard"
Select "choose zip from sdcard"
Select "0" (zero) folder
Select "CWM-SuperSU-v0.97.zip"
Select "Yes - Install CWM-SuperSU-v0.97.zip"
Select "Go Back"
Select "reboot system now"
If you have Team Win Recovery Project installed, you have to perform the following steps:
Press "Install".\
Select "CWM-SuperSU-v0.97.zip" -- for me it's in the "0" (zero) folder
Swipe to confirm flash
Press "Wipe cache/dalvik" (just as a precaution)
Swipe to wipe
Press "Reboot System"
After Android 4.2 loads your device can run apps with elevated privileges (meaning it's rooted). A SuperSU app is installed in order to allow root requests, so please use your judgement on which apps you grant access.

[Q] weird problem on Nexus S - please assist

This is going to be pretty long and have had the problem for months so please bear with me, read and see if you could assist.
Borrowed a friends Nexus S a while back. Used it for a few days, turned it on one day and it stays on the black google screen with the open padlock at the bottom
I am able to enter Fastboot mode is shown in image 2; lock state is unlocked.
I followed the instructions as in post 2 on the following thread
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1787169
and as copied below but when i got to the part where i needed to mount my sdcard i get the error " unable to write to ums lunfile (no such file)".

Download and install the Android SDK on your computer from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Open the SDK Manager (there should be a shortcut in your start menu) and install "Android SDK Tools" and "Android SDK Platform-tools" and "Google USB Driver" (it's in Extra).
Turn your phone off, take the battery out, look at the bottom of the phone and write down the model number.
Now go to https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images and download the factory image for your model for version 4.0.4.
You'll need something like 7-Zip (http://www.7-zip.org/) to open it.
Copy image-so....zip, radio-crespo...img and bootloader-crespo...img from the factory image to the platform-tools directory (on most computers it will be C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools and you'll need Administrator rights).
Now open the platform-tools directory from the Android SDK and right click on an empty space while holding the SHIFT button and select "Open command prompt here".
Put the battery back in your phone and press Power while holding the Volume-Up button so it will boot into fastboot mode. Then connect it to your pc.
If Windows starts complaining about drivers then point it your SDK installation directory (include subfolders) or use 7-Zip to unpack http://www.mediafire.com/?5a7gou9droidi53 and point Windows to the directory where you unpacked it. More info on http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials...e-manager.html
When you type "fastboot devices" and press Enter in the command prompt you opened before it should list one device (being your phone).
If you haven't unlocked your phone before type "fastboot oem unlock" and press Enter. Follow the instructions on the screen on your phone to complete the unlock.
Next type "fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-crespo...img" (you can press TAB to auto-complete) and press Enter. (THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP, IF THIS GOES WRONG YOUR PHONE IS SCREWED. Don't continue if another step didn't succeed. If this works, then you can do anything with it.)
Now type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" and press Enter and wait for your phone to reboot into fastboot mode.
Next type "fastboot flash radio radio-crespo...img" (you can press TAB to auto-complete) and press Enter.
Now type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" and press Enter and wait for your phone to reboot into fastboot mode.
Next type "fastboot -w update image-....zip" and press Enter.
Now type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" and press Enter and wait for your phone to reboot into fastboot mode.
Next download http://download2.clockworkmod.com/re...0.7-crespo.img and also put it in the platform-tools directory.
Then type "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.0.7-crespo.img" and press Enter.
Now type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" and press Enter and wait for your phone to reboot into fastboot mode.
Now use the volume keys on your phone to navigate to the word Recovery and press the Power button to boot into recovery.
You're now in CWM Recovery, use the volume keys and the power button to go to Mounts & Storage > Mount USB Storage (you might have to scroll down). Now it will come up on your pc and you can transfer the update file for Jelly Bean to your phone. You can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...68&postcount=1 (use the one for your model for IMM76D).
Unmount the usb storage, go back to the main menu and go to Install Zip from sdcard > Choose zip from sdcard and open the update file you just transferred to your phone.
You can now go back to the main menu and choose "reboot system now". It will ask you if you want to remove the auto recovery installation, do that.
That's all, you now have a clean and working Jelly Bean installation.
Someone else wrote down the same instructions if mine are not clear enough: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1785672

This prevented me from putting the stock image on the sdcard for flashing via CWM.
is there another way i can get this working, maybe via fastboot or via ODIN so i can return my friends phone.
Thank you.
Hi I had this problem to, mine was from a bad flash / bad firmware.

After first boot and config u can use http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/ to write the OEM firmware.
Sorry this didn't work because nothing can be written to system and the sdcard is still not able to mount
