I did not do superwipe since i don't know how but i try to re-install the rom and it work ! look like just erasing the cache with fastboot work for me ! THANK YOU
Next retry to s-off.
Last month a cant pass the supercid step. Do you have any idea why?

Super Cid won't work for you. You need to hex edit your Cid in.

[Q] Back to stock recovery for OTA update.

Hello my dearest XDA friends,
I've got a problem preparing my phone for an OTA update to 4.0.4, then to 4.1(.1?).
My situation is like this:
- My phone is rooted (SuperSU)
- It has what I believe to be TWRP Recovery on it
- I tried to flash stock recovery on it.
But now when I use OTA Rootkeeper and start the update, it gives the red triangle exclamation mark error.. I've tried to flash it using the All-in-One Kit, and also by booting into the bootloader and using "fastboot flash recovery.img", it then says the flash is successful but when I try to boot into Recovery mode it gives the same error..
I'm out of ideas, what to do? I'd rather not lose any files.. thanks!
Oh - I have the S4 version btw
Bump - Sorry for triple post just really want to know.
You need to lock your bootloader
It is fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and NOT fastboot flash recovery.img

I've tried this, but when I start the update I get the red triangle error again.. I tried it by locking the bootloader, didn't work, then unlocked it again, so obviously everything was wiped, I've installed ParanoidAndroid now, if I don't like it I'll just install a custom ROM with Sense+.
Thanks for the help guys!
Yes you got red triangle because you need stock recovery to install official updates.

Yes, but when I flash stock recovery, then boot into recovery I get the green circle-arrow update thingy, then the red triangle, why is that?
You'll need to boot into android, with the stock bootloader installed, and the update will boot bootloader and install.
You'll get a prompt telling you what to do.

So, re-lock bootloader, flash stock recovery, update OTA?
Don't do relock. Boot up your phone. Go to setting---> about phone sw update. Hit update now and wait.

Man.. I'm having the same issue. Was rooted with TWRP, flashed ZenRom fine (with intentions of getting the OTA to JB), booted fine. Then had to switch computers cuz windows 8 sucks. Flashed stock recovery img, successful, now device won't boot past the green circle, then red triangle.
Any suggestions? I supposed I'll try flashing another recovery and see what progress I can make there.
I posted this instruction like 3 times in the xda forum in one week...
if you follow this step by step correctly there should be NO ! issues by reverting to stock JB
take a look here, or take two looks or more or whatever
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37942416&postcount=2
why using rootkeeper? follow this instructions and root again.
I used this method 3 times on windows 8 with latest HTC drivers, original HTC data cable, and TWRP 2.4.1.0.
no issues

[Q] Flashing issues...

Ok, I've looked through the help sections, I've Googled my issue [a few times now], so now time to ask for help. [which may or may not be well recieved.]
I was running Viper 3.2.6 fine for about a month, I loved the rom, however I started getting repeated FCs and errors, so I decided to recover my nandroid backup. That didn't work very well, and my phone started to bootloop... I then decided to re-flash viper, re-install twrp [first 2.4.4.0, then when that version wouldn't work, 2.4.1.0] Now when flashing Viper [any JB version I've tried] all my phone does is hang on the HTC startup screen, then reboot back to TWRP. Not to mention that Viper is the only sense ROM that my phone will accept. I've tried fastboot flashing the boot.img, fastboot erasing cache, and running the Nocturnal SD fix to give myself a clean slate to work with.
I'm S-on and HBoot 2.14. Any help that can be provided would be appreciated.
I would post a logcat, but when I tried it would not output anything since the phone is not getting to the rom boot animation.
Try flashing the boot image separately. Or going s-off. I have had troubles with twrp higher than 2.4 before I went s-off.
I always stayed on 2.3

As far as flashing the boot image, I type fastboot flash boot boot.img.
And with the S-Off situation, I looked into that, but most of the tools for that seemingly require a working ROM, as usually they require you to have "usb debugging enabled" Like I stated previously, I've tried to solve the issue myself, to no avail thus far.
Also being hboot 2.14 twrp 2.3.x seems to not have touchscreen.
So you have no working Rom? Or can you flash viper again?

Pretty sure you can s-off purely from boot loader.
2.3.x has working touchscreen for 2.14 and would solve all your issues. You'd have to wipe everything and reflash viper though

Also check fastboot device too make sure adb is reading your phone.

Just tried 2.3.1 and no, the touchscreen didn't work, I was looking for a d/l for 2.3.3.x but haven't been able to find one. all of the ones I have found have been removed, or changed to 2.4.4.0
I would be quite greatful if you could point me in the direction of a 2.3.3.x twrp that works.
With S-Off, all the guides I've found by searching XDA [and google, which usually points me back to XDA] state that I need to start with USB debugging enabled, I even tried to start the process in fastboot... still no-go.
So you have no working Rom? Or can you flash viper again?

None, Every time I try venom it looks like it flashes just fine, says it's successful, however I just end up looking at twrp again.

For s-off, if you don't use supercid, it doesn't seem to work, I did not use super cid, since I didn't need to to unlock my bootloader. I tried that method already.
Though, 2.3.3.1 is working; but viper XL 3.2.6 is still fighting with me... Now it's just hanging at the HTC boot screen with the annoying red script.

The only issue, is that it requires adb; since I cannot get a rom to load; when I adb, it just outputs device not found. I was able to find the file to hex edit using twrp file manager, and edited the right part, but it won't let me over-write the original file... any suggestions?

Sorry I hadnt had to do this till now. OK here's what you need to do. In recovery advanced. Go to terminal command select root dir "/". And then do the "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p4" on your phone. This will pull the file. Mount your SD card in twrp and hex edit the mmcblk0p4 file on your sdcard like in my guide then save it in the same spot, make sure file size matches then go back to terminal command and select the root "/" directory again and type
"dd if=/sdcard/mmcblk0p4 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4" from your phone. This will push the edited file back.
This is a bit more advanced but will work since you cannot adb. Adb just allows you to use the phones terminal remotely. Instead were actually using it on the phone.

[Q] Rooting and Bootloader problems? HELP!

(Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, someone told me to come over here)
So yesterday, I was unlocking bootloader on my phone. (I'm noob at this)
Everything went fine. I was wanting to install JellyBean...
Then, I had to root my phone, I downloaded a program called ClockWorkMod and used it.
So I rooted my phone and it kept restarting, over and over again.
I can't use it, it keeps shutting off and restarting. (With red text under the HTC logo telling me about HTC's legal terms or something)
What do I do?
:crying:
Thank you!

[Q] how to get back to stock rom?

Hello.
I made a terrible mistake and i delete my entire system, whitout backup first.
my device is now rooted, with twrp. I tried a several ruu, but i can't find one for version 1.18.709.3. my cid is HTC_621.
I also tried a several roms with sense 5, but the wi-fi data can't work. Right now i have no operating system.
Do you have any ideas what should i do for getting back on stock rom, no twrp and unrooted? Kind regards.

I guess i have a custom rom if i it get me in bootloader after i download updates. all i want is to have stock rom, unrooted, without twrp and to install updates ota
here is how i proceed:
downloading your rom from dropbox.
put the rom on a sd card
Open the rom zip and extract the boot.img file to the adb folder
Connect the phone to pc
opened cmd
restart phone in bootloader
type adb devices, but my device serial number arent showed here, but i have installed htc sync
Type "fastboot erase cache"
Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
Type "fastboot erase cache" again
Type "fastboot reboot recovery" to get to CWM or TWRP, but the command doesn't work. still, i enter manually on recover
Backup system, data, and cache but it says "failed on cache"
Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format system
Install the rom from sd card.

You're telling there is no way to get back on stock rom, unrooted and be able to update OTA?
What next if i'm getting s-off?
Thank you for support.

Simply install original recovery through fastboot like you install CWM or TWRP (fastboot flash recovery recovery-name.img).

Had to flash it a time or two, but it works! No issues so far, thank you!
EDIT: Did run into an issue, when attempting to flash a new ROM it gave me an error "status 7" stating that the rom was tagged as for an "m4", but the device read as an " " from recovery. Backup and restore seems to work just fine though, so I restored from nandroid.
Just remove asserts from updater script. You probably tried flashing cm11 and the rom doesnt work.

You cant? try not booting from recovery just power down and then reboot. ive found that to work with s-off and unlocked. ive heard of many talking about this problem.lol i aint had it?
Sorry, I didn't explain properly.....
The issue is that I can't boot my ROM with s-off and an unlocked bootloader - just boot loops, it's a known issue.
I'd have to unlock the bootloader to flash your recovery, but then my ROM won't boot. As your recovery doesn't have a terminal emulator built in like TWRP has, I have no way of relocking the bootloader (I would execute ./revone -l ) so ROM can't boot.....

Would your modified hboot firmware image allow s-off and unlocked bootloader to work? Thanks!
