[Q] Unlocking bootloader ( htc cha cha ) HELP Plz - HTC ChaCha

downloaded the RUU for my country but it gave me :
ERROR [191]: ROM IS NOT SUPPORTED
My current software version is : 1.20.720.1 ... android 2.3.3
It says it needs version 1.57.720.1 for HBOOT update.
I haven't got any OTA update ( I also checked manually) to update to 1.57 version.
I couldn't unlock bootloader because of this and I still don't have root. and custom roms ..
Any help will be appreciated.

I tried by running ruu_chacha_htc_asia_wwe_1.57.707.2........ google it and you will find the RUU. run the RUU in administrator mode and you might have to try 2-3 times. Not remembering exactly how many times have to run it, but finally could upgrade and could generate "Unlock_code.bin"
I used customs ROMS and the best I found was SuperOSR chacha 2.5
Today only I have managed to downgrade to 1.20.720.1 and successfully restore the indian RUU. So now my Chacha is back to factory. Locked again.

[Q] H BOOT 1.17.0005 please help

hello
i was on a stock sfr( vodafone) rom and for root purposes( titanium) i went s off , and i was on version 1.35 of the OTA.
but the new OTA 1.45 was not installable , so i followed the instruction installed stock rom vodafone 1.23.. fr, and secured the cid , so i went on , but then no OTA was available even four days after and more than ten days after , so i tried to install the ruu 1.45... but the installation aborts on the signature process, ( i tried to redownlaod it , tried from different pc, ...)so i to take an update ota that i found on this site , going through the recovery , but the recovery says to me , c'ant open cache/ recovery/ command .so i decided to go s off again but to my surprise the H BOOT of my device is not compatible with the revolutionary io .
and on all of that i have the device which restarts itself twice or three times a day without me using it !!
PLEASE HELP what can i do to update my device to g 2.3.4
So it seems that the installation of RUU 1.23 brought you up with HBOOT 1.17.0005
OTA 1.45 is to update 1.35 only I think, so that's why you have not gotten the 1.45 OTA notification yet...
>> Download a 1.35 RUU, install that and your HBOOT should be back to 1.1.7.0008
Check this thread for all kinds of RUU versions
If you want stock 2.3.4 use a WWW 1.35 RUU unbrandend - OTA should pop-up after the first boot right away!
Otherwise check for one of the many custom ROMs which are mainly all based on 2.3.4 now!

well thanks for your answer but i tried to install all the vodafone roms , upper than this one , and even the unbranded 1.35 and 1.45 stock roms , but it stops at the signature process where it says to that my installer is not the appropiate one

Here's a list of prevalent RUUs at the moment. Pick on of your choice from here:

But before that, you may want to create a Gold Card as described HERE. That being to forestall/avert difficulties once you proceed. Good luck

[Q] HTC Sensation XE update to Android 4 failed

Hi
I've recently bought the Sensation XE which was SIMLOCK to T-mobile network.
I've follow this tutorial to root and remove simlock.
[Guide] to Installing S-off, Unlocking, ClockWork, Root, SuperCID & S-on
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
Now when I try to do software update to Android 4 OTA from HTC I can download the update and when phone reboot it freezes with " ! " on the screen.
After this I have to remove the battery and power on the phone and it boots in Android 2.3.4
Can someone tell me how to upgrade to ICS from HTC ?
Have you set your CID/MID correctly?
No, I've stop after step3. and didn't set CID because I've rooted the phone and remove simlock so I can use SIM Card from other GSM provider.
Do I have to continue to step 4 ?
You have to have the stock recovery installed on your Sensation. It will not flash with Clockwork Mod Recovery or any other custom recovery.

OK, so lets start from the beginning...
Which ROM are you currently running on? Did you flash a new RUU? If so, you will also need to change your CID/MID to get the new update
In software information there is:
Android version 2.3.4
HTC Sense 3.0
Software number 1.73.401.4
Kernel version 2.6.35.13-g2299e28
[email protected] #1
Baseband version 10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2
Build number 1.73.401.4 CL161971 release-keys
I didn't install custom RUU.
In a process of removing SIMLOCK I've also follow this tutorial
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1232107
metod 2.
I got a question cause I am not really sure from your first post. Did you download the OTA update via a notification for the update on your Sensation? Or did you download the OTA file to your computer either from XDA or another site?
I've download the OTA update via a notification for the update on my Sensation.
Guys
Any idea?
I've fix it!
I've flash it with RUU_PYRAMID_LE_HTC_Europe_1.73.401.4_Radio_10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2_release_220036_signed.exe
and after that I've update to ICS with OTA update.
Thanks for your help!
Rooted phones can't update to stock via OTA. During the root process your recovery has changed from stock to custom. That's why you got ! and can't install the update. Installing RUU your recovery came back to stock again and that's why you successfully installed the update after that.
Hi,
I am new to this forum. I am having HTC Sensation XE with
Android 2.3.4
HTC Sense 3.0
Software number 1.73.707.4
Baseband version 10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2
I have rooted my phone with Revolutionary tool and I am able to use ABD command.
Now the problem is I got the latest android 4.X upgrade via the upgrade utility and it failed to upgrade. (Got ! symbol and restarting the mobile came back to 2.3.4 Android)
As per the instruction I tried running the RUU_Pyramid_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.35.707.1_Radio_10.43a.9007.00U_10.51.9007.27_M3_release_198358_signed.exe file to fix the issues. (I am from Malaysia, so I selected the Asia files).
But I ended up with a error stating that my battery power is less than 30% and it failed. I tried the exe file with the mobile in fully booted way and in the boot loader level (by holding power button + volume key). But nothing did the magic.
From the log I am to see that some thing is getting failed. "<T002411><DEBUG><OUT>- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: Permission denied (13) -</OUT>"
Attached the log file also.
Please help me.
Thanks

and what about phone data?
will all contacts, images, and settings deleted?
Yes, they will be deleted.
That's why you need to sync your data first.

That RUU won't work for the OP unless the OP has Super CID as he's on the Asian build not the EU one

But i have, i've tried several options, Charger Only, Disk Drive, HTC Sync, but none of them helped, not even turning on/off usb debugging mode.
so is there anywhere step by step instructions how to flash ? i couldn't find it

"we have determined that your phone may be running a modified version of its system software.for your protection we cannot update your phone.please revert your phone to to official HTC system software to update your phone.if you did not modify your systemsoftware or would like help reverting your system please contact us via the support section at www/htc.com"

[Q] Problem with Custom ICS Rom Installation in My HTC Sensation

I have two HTC Sensation Device ---
1) Locked hboot1.27.XXXX, ICS (From Official OTA), S-ON, Non-rooted
2) Locked hboot1.18.XXXX, GB (As no Official OTA Received for ICS), S-ON, Non-rooted, Orange-United Kingdom
I have successfully unlocked and rooted both the devices with 4EXT Touch Recovery Installed in both the mobiles (Still S-ON for both devices).
Now my Device status are as below:
1) Unlocked hboot1.27.XXXX, ICS (Custom ROM), S-ON, Rooted
2) Unlocked hboot1.18.XXXX, GB (Slightly Customed ROM), S-ON, Rooted
I have tried to install different ICS based custom roms using Smart Flash of 4EXT Recovery with S-ON.
In first device, ROM installation was successful in every try
But in second device, ROM installation failed and boot-loop problem occurred (tried with 5~6 custom ROMS but failed all the time with similar problem). Then I have flashed GB ROM on second device with hboot 1.18.XXXX.
Can anyone answer my following queries, Please--
1) I think, as the custom ROMS requires hboot version 1.27.XXXX+, it failed to flash. Please confirm whether my assumption is ok or not. Please be noted that custom ROMS are flashing my first device with S-ON with ease.
2) Can I upgrade to 1.27.XXXX hboot version without S-OFF?
3) Can I flash/push by hboot.img through (fastboot flash hboot hboot.img) command with version 1.27.XXXX? If yes, can anyone provide me a proper link to download that hboot.img file?
4) Can anyone provide me download link for RUU so that I can update my hboot version by official ICS ROM (Orange, United Kingdom)
5) Can anyone suggest any better method to install custom ROMS with S-ON?
6) Can anyone suggest me how to S-OFF easily (I have tried Revolutionary.exe, but this program never opens in my PC although I have the beta Key)?
7) With S-OFF, will the problem will be solved with hboot version 1.18.XXXX? If not, please suggest...
I would be really happy if my problem is solved by any of yours' help
in the first device you completely fine:good:
in the second one indeed you need to S-OFF in order to upgrade firmware to ics(will upgrade also your hboot version)
that's why the device is bootlooping(not running in gb firmware)
you mentioned that you tried revolutionary method and it didn't work
so try this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672425
search for the correct ruu.exe
by the way what kind of problem do you face with revolutionary method?

In fact revolutionary.exe is being crashed whenever I tried to open it either in Windows XP (Office Laptop) or in Windows 7 (Home PC). So, I have failed to use this tool. Can u suggest any idea?
If you can't use revolutionary for s-off, then your only hope is RUU.EXE on your PC.
