Hi all,
My phone stucks on HTC logo. I can access to bootloader and fastboot. I've a CWM recovery.
I want reinstall stock rom 2.3.5 for my branded phone (Vodafone FR) . After a week of research of a ruu branded Vodafone FR 2.3.5, I founded nothing for a HBOOT 2.xx.xxxx .
So i understand that i need to downgrade HBOOT to 0.93.xxxx to install a ruu (a lot of ruu for 0.93.xxxx compatible with me)
I've drivers adb and fastboot . Fastboot work because i used it to install CWM recovery.
I found a lot of tutorials to downgrade HBOOT but they need adb comands ! They don't work on bootloader .
Can i use adb comands with bootloader (specials drivers) ? Or downgrade without these comands ?
I need help ! Thanks to all !
Bootloader infos :
S-ON
UNLOCKED
HBOOT 2.00.0002
if you flashed custom rom you need to flash boot.img from rom zip via fastboot
As the guy above me said, if fastboot is working for you, you only have to flash boot.img using:
fastboot flash boot boot.img (there are many guides on this forum, but basically get your phone into bootloader, you just open your rom *.zip and extract boot.img file from there, and you put it to folder where you have fastboot.exe, and execute that command)
Thank's !
To use adb commands, you must be on recovery .

im assuming u know how to flash it?
Yeah, go to Clockwork Recovery then flash update.zip, right?
Wait it's not zip, Steps?
Reboot your phone into Bootloader and then choose Fastboot.
Open a cmd window, cd into your android sdk folder and then type:
fastboot flash hboot example.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
*replace example with the name of the img.
Ok thanks alot
Excuse my ignorance but which folder inside the sdk. I haven't used it in a while.

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
I used the HTC website to Unlock the Bootloader (still S-ON though) on my 2.02.0002 Hboot Desire S.
I flashed Ext4 Recovery Touch via adb
Created Nandroid backup
Wiped everything
Flashed a custom Cyanogenmod 11, but phone wouldn't start (black screen)
Then I read that on S-ON devices, new custom Kernels have to be flashed. The creator of the ROM provided a Kernel zip file, but on extraction, there is no boot.img file which I can flash through adb
Posting here cause I can't post in the Developer forums.
Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks
You don't need a custom kernel, you can extract the boot.img from the rom zip file

With S-ON you need to extract boot.img form ROM zip and put it in same folder as fastboot and adb.Then connect your phone and in bootloader choose fastboot ( should be red fastboot usb ).
then open cmd in same folder and write
Code:
fastboot devices
if you get some devices there some numbers then you are connected.Now you go for flashing boot.img with
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
it will say ok if it is good.
Then reboot and CM would boot. It will take some time to boot first time so wait...no more then 10min.
Read this about Fastboot and ADB Fastboot setup.
Everytime you flash new rom you need to do this.Even if you restore backup.BC your phone is S-ON.
Yeah, I learned this shortly after creating the thread.
This was my first time messing around with roots and custom ROMs.
Thanks anyway
Flashing custom ROM on S-on device can be a little tricky. So, here i will teach how to flash custom ROM on S-on devices.
First download a supportable ROM.
Copy it on your phone.
Then on the PC , extract it and copy the boot.img in adb/fastboot directory.
And connect USB.
Then type following commands.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
After your phone go into bootloader
Code:
fastboot devices
It must show your device.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Wait until it's complete.
After that immediately go to Recovery (without a reboot) and flash the zip you copied earlier. Do some installation process.
Congratulation, u flashed custom ROM on your S-ON device.
Thanks dude it helps me a lot.
