Hello guys
I unlocked my saga via htcdev and installed cwm. I thought that that would be enough to flash a costum rom but now i only see the spashsceen on bootup. I tried flash the boot.img via fastboot manually but that fails (fastboot failed (status malformed (1 bytes))) too. So my HBOOT is 2.00.002 and I am still S-ON but on top of the Bootloader it is Unlocked.
So what is now up with my phone and what can I do?
Thanks :good:
AW: [Q] Stuck on Splash with S-ON and HBOOT 2.00.002
Was your phone in fastboot mode (bootloader saying fastboot USB at the top) when you tried flashing the boot.img?

Hello
I have been trying to upgrade my phone's ROM for a while now but have always been held back by the firmware on my phone. From what I have read before, I am one of a few people that can not use any FW above 3.12, preventing me from using the 3.30 required ROMs.
Is there any way of getting these ROMs working, such as openSensation?
This is what is listed when I put the phone into recovery:
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT 1.23.0000
RADIO 11.22.3504.07_M
OPENADSP-v02.6.0.2226.00.0131
eMMC-boot

why cant you flash the newest firmware ?
cant you just use the standard way of flashing the PG58IMG file ?
here get the 3.32 universal firmware and try flashing it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767&highlight=user-friendly+firmware
if it still didnt worked then manual way of flashing
It is assumed that you have adb/fastboot setup
connect the device in fastboot to pc (phone reads fastboot usb)
also copy the downloaded PG58IMG.zip file to the adb folder you have on pc
then open a command window at the adb folder
and type 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 (im interested in this output ..if failed post back the output)
fastboot reboot-bootloader
tada done

Oh I can flash firmwares just fine, I have done before etc.
The issue is getting the phone to work with any firmware over 3.12 without bootlooping. From looking at previous threads a lot of people believe it is due to the HBOOT file in the firmwares being changed.
My phone is S-OFF, if i want to unlock the bootloader and choose yes in the bootloader unlocking screen of the phone the phone does not reboot, i have to choose no i order to reboot the phone.
When i was S-ON that was not the case by choosing yes to unlock the bootloader it reboot automaticly.
Does any one knows why?

why on earth you want to do unlock after SOFF ???
once you do unlock over SOFF ..if you relock you will have relocked rather than locked ..which you dont want that
if you are having trouble using fastboot flash commands (having error remote not allowed)
then you can just flash the juopunutbear HBOOT
here get the pyramid ICS one from this link
and flash the hboot using these commands one by one
fastboot erase cache (if failed ignore it)
fastboot oem rebootRUU (black screen with silver HTC)
fastboot flash zip jb_hboot.zip (ignore the progess bar on the screen)
fastboot reboot-bootloader
thats all ..you will have a complete unlocked hboot (pink *juopunutbear*)
then you can use the fastboot flash commands as usual

Ok i just want to know why it is not rebooting after choosing unlock when it is s-off, and rebooting when it is s-on?
I have S-Off, custom H-Boot 2.14 with red writing on splash removed, unlocked bootloader, cid 11111111, viper 3.2.3 rom and TWRP 2.4.1.0 recovery, why can't I fastboot flash radios? I keep getting "FAILED (remote: not allowed)".
I can flash the zips in recovery no problems but can't flash the extracted radio images through fastboot, it sends the radio but fails to write it.
Any ideas anyone?
You flash the radio zip from fastboot I think. Not the extracted image

I always have flashed radios thru recovery
With the one xl you can simply flash the radios through recovery with s off... With new HTC devices if s off is present you'll be flashing radios through fastboot which night require an eng hboot but I'm not 100% sure on that
Ok i can enter to the bootloader, and also to the recovery, but! when i flash a rom it cant boot on ! i got stucked after the HTC Logo. Also tried to to flash PD98IMG from hboot without succes and the same thing with RUU, in HBOOT the RUU software says that my battery is 30% or less and i have to chargue it, but is full! so have to enter in fastboot mode and it pass that step then it chargue the ruu but then it send an error that the image restore from ruu cant be completed.
Btw: S-on AND unlocked bootloader
i red about flash the boot.img from the ROM zip in fastboot? it work? how do i do it?

extract the boot.img file from the zip (do not extract the zip) to your PC desktop, then boot the device in fastboot usb and in a CMD session in the PC (located in the desktop folder) type:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
then when you get the OKAY, type:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Hello! I have this phone and it had unlocked bootloader so i flashed custom recovery to install stock rom. But it didn't boot even after flashing zip from CM. So i decided to flash stock RUU. I managed to get cid from unbootable phone by using "getvar cid" so i downloaded RUU with proper cid. This RUU flashes fine until it comes to the end- and that is represented as error 152.
When i unplug the cable, phone shows that partition "USERDATA" failed, and when i reboot the phone, i have black screen with HTC shown, with 4 triangles at the corners.
I tried to unlock bootloader to flash recovery again, but it does nothing when i use unlocktoken obtained from HTCDev. I also tried using rom.zip from RUU to flash through fastboot, but it doesn't help.
is there any hope for this phone ? thanks in advance.
