Hi, I have a problem with Desire S. I hboot-2.00.0002, Radio-3822.10.08.04_M. S-ON. The update is turned off and now does not boot. We will only restart, will not boot, only HTC logo and restart, I tried to wipe, reset etc. I pulled the official Rom
RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.9_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_234765_signed, this does not work at all, just the wrong customer ID, then I tried ... RUU_Saga 2.10.401.8, for me this again shows that the error 140: error function bootloader versions and display on my cell phone: "RUU - main version is older! Update Fail! I do not know what to do next. I tried CMD "cd c:\Android
fastboot.exe flash boot boot_signed.img
fastboot.exe flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img" shows the error.
Hello,
I have followed the tutorials to unlock the bootloader of my moto G 4G : the bootloader is unlocked and I have removed the message when starting the phone with this tutorial : forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/4g-development/logo-remove-bootloader-unlocked-warning-t2794104
Anyway, I would like now to install a recovery CWM with this tutorial :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/4g-development/recovery-unofficial-cwm-6-0-5-0-t2818161
But when I do so, I have the following message on the screen of my phone : "Mismatch partition size (recovery)"
And when I boot on the bootloader then select recovery but nothing appears, just a black screen.
The status code of my bootloader is : 3 and it says "Device is unlocked".
I can boot to CWM from the computer with : fastboot boot recovery.img
but when I type : fastboot flash recovery CWM-6.0.5.0-peregrine.img I get this error.
Can someone help me please ?
Thank you in advance.

I got this problem when installing CWM too. I believed the problem is in this line:
fastboot flash recovery CWM-6.0.5.0-peregrine.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
instead, you could try this:
fastboot boot flash recovery CWM-6.0.5.0-peregrine.img
When I did this, it worked. Give it a try. You could also try this little program, I changed CWM to TWRP with it.

Hello Hello,
Thank you for answering.
The command : fastboot boot flash recovery CWM-6.0.5.0-peregrine.img doesn't work because there is too much arguments. It gives me that answer :
cannot load 'flash': No such file or directory
I retried the right command but still the same problem.
I also tried the small program given by this URL on linux : http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/4g-development/moto-g-4g-easyrecovery-toolkit-t2856710
My computer under Ubuntu fails to recognize the device. The device shown is empty.
I will try it on windows then come back here to tell you what happened.

I have the same issue with this program under linux or windows, it doesn't recognize my device. I have activated USB debug, tried under bootloader or with the phone normally started but nothing better.
only fastboot boot recovery.img works.
You have to flash the recovery with mfastboot from motorola when flashing partitions else you will get the size mismatched error.
Standard fastboot is only good for basic things such as getvar etc.
Always flash with mfastboot and it will not error out.
So the command will then be mfastboot flash recovery CWM-6.0.5.0-peregrine.img which should then work without issues

Hello, I have bought the phone less than one month ago.
It was directly on 4.4.4 after unpacking.
Have you tried renaming the CWM file? Maybe the "-" are a problem although I highly doubt it. Did you try re downloading the file? Running the command window as an administrator? Last resort, you could use TWRP, I'm running on this currently and haven't had any problems installing/flashing ROMs with it and imo prefer it over CWM.

I have tried both and they both have the same problem :/ CWM as well as TWRP...
Still no idea what happens.

Did you find any solutions for this ?
I'm still stuck
Is it normal when entering the bootloader to have the message :
"Device is UNLOCKED. Status code: 3 "
Is it the right status code ?
Thank you
Back to stock

Yes its normal if you have unlocked your bootloader
To get back to stock, download a stock Fw for your device model and region, you can find a link for one if you enter the moto g section of this site and head to moto 4g lte android development section (only section specifically for peregrine model) unpack the fw files into your fastboot directory (windows) reboot your phone to fastboot mode (where u saw the status code) then press control + shift + right click to launch a command prompt window here (from within fastboot directory in windows) then copy and paste these fastboot commands 1 by 1 pressing enter each time until compete.
mfastboot flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot reboot
So you mean, it is compulsory to have stock ROM in order to install the recovery ?
Because my problem is not to return to stock, it is to install a proper recovery (CWM or TWRP) in order to boot on it without my computer.
Thanks for your help
No but I think your problem is you have corrupt the recovery partition size maybe through bad flash or something so ur unable now to flash a recovery as the partition size is for different device or damaged and flashing cwm will no longer work as the cwm image is too big or too small for the allocation assigned to it as the devices core partition table has changed (can happen when u flash something for the falcon when you have a peregrine), I would flash back to stock via that method to restore to stock partition sizes and then reroot and flash cwm again after, just a guess from my own understanding.

Guys I had the same trouble installing the recovery with the mismatched partition size message. This message is normal and the recovery is already installed on your device. The problem i had when selecting the recovery with the following black screen was that I used the Power Button instead of the up Button.
5) using volume down scroll to recovery and then use volume up to select
HI
I was flashing the GPe image on my XT1033 and while flashing the boot.img and logo.bin i got an error - out of memory , but rest of the parts like system.img etc flashed properly and now my phone won't boot giving me the error "failed to validate boot image'.
I am stuck at the bootloader screen and now neither can i flash some other image since my phone isn't being recognized anymore with cmd showing the message 'waiting for device'
Can someone please provide a solution?
Hello.
I faced the same problems when installing the 4.4.4 br firmware and trying to revert to my original firmware.
This happens because you have a locked bootloader and/or maybe you flashed a wrong boot.bin and you can't reflash boot.img because the bootloader is locked!
What I did is unlock the bootloader and all my problems vanished.. -_- reflash all the files using mfastboot, if it gives you errors on gpt.bin and motoboot.img dont worry and go on with the rest.
Oh, and one strange thing that I luckily figured out, is that to get the device recognized by the PC in the fastboot mode you got to enter fastboot MANUALLY. THat is, press volume down 3 seconds and then power on.
It's gotta say: Fastboot reason: Volume-down key pressed.
If you try to boot and it enters fast boot and gives you the error, for some reason doesn't recognize.
Hey can you please help me out .
I am a noob so please bear with me .
I somehow went to recovery by using the ROM manager and installed a custom rom but forgot to install the gapps
So here comes the problem , i switch off the phone and go to fastboot ( Power + Vol down ) and when i try to go to recovery(CWM) , the "Unlocked Bootloader " screen keeps looping . Holding the power button and going to fastboot is the only thing possible .
Now I'm not able to access the phone normally because if i click on normal powerup its stuck at "unlocked bootloader" screen( not looping here but stuck , loops when i click recovery ) & I'm not able to go to recovery .
I tried re-flashing typing [fastboot flash recovery recovery.img] in cmd from pc . But not working .
I tried downloading another CWM & TWRP cuz i thought this version for faulty or smth but still same .
I used these following command in the fastboot hoping that it will hep ( just erasing data n all ) ( I found these here in XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277112 )
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase data
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot boot recovery.img
So to be clear . I can use only the fastboot screen and nothing else . PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SOMEONE TELL ME MY PHONE IS NOT BRICKED AND HELP ME OUT . I AM REALLY DESPERATE AND IRRITATED WITH THIS WHOLE THING
PS I WAS ABLE TO ACCESS MY PHONE (BUT NOT RECOVERY)UNTIL I INSTALLED THIS APP FROM XDA CALLED "FLASHGORDON" WHICH CLAIMED TO INSTALL ANY ZIP (IN MY CASE GAPPS) WITHOUT RECOVERY . IT FLASHED I GUESS BUT AS MENTIONED I HAD STUCK AT BOOT PROBLEM AFTER THAT .
PLEASE HELP ME .IM HOPELESS AND DESPERATE
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. What device do you have? Try flashing the factory image with fastboot.
Thread closed
I made a hard reset through the recovery, but after rebooting the image remained fixed on the logo, so I tried "asus flash tool" (fastboot mode), with the .zip present on the official site, but gave an extraction error, then I tried to use ADB & fastboot for flash manually (the bootloader is unlocked), but also gave me error saying it could not flash, so I looked at all the partitions there (image attached) and I reset almost all (in some I did not have permission), now I have a tablet that only has the fastboot mode (no image or logo) on which I can not flash anything (but vrl partition yes). Does anyone have an idea on how it can be done? Is there a way to solve the flash error? or an alternative to fastboot? If someone had my own model of tablet could send me the partition files?
ps: before I reset the partitions if I did "fastboot boot recovery.img" it worked, now I have the black screen.
