OTA ARABIC 1.57.415.3 and WARANTY IS BACK

Dear ALL
Today I did Manage to re-lock the Chacha bootloader to win the waranty back here is what I did
1- My ChaCha is an Arabic version bought it from egypt it was coming with ROM (( RUU_Chacha_HTC_ARA_1.22.415.2_Radio_47.14.35.3030H_7.47.35.17_release_198595_signed.exe )) you can find it somewhere in ChaCha thread .
2- I did extract the above rom and i toke the file called rom.zip then i did extract it
3- i did flash boot.img , radio.img , recovery.img and system.img using fastboot.exe
CMD
fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
then
fastboot.exe flash radio radio.img
then
fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img
then
fastboot.exe flash system system.img
then
Factory Rest
then
Restart
4- The ROM 1.22.415.2 installed on my Chacha and working super . I went to Settings > About Phone > Software Updates > Check now . the system asked me to download the new update then I did
5- For sure before i install the update I looked for the OTA update on my phone and i managed to find it on my SD under folder called download (( OTA_Chacha_HTC_ARA_1.57.415.3-1.22.415.2_release_228158ps5fo8iej85c5rzr.zip )) Here is a link of the OTA update
http://ifile.it/y5jwsx2/OTA_Chacha_HTC_ARA_1.57.415.3-1.22.415.2_release_228158ps5fo8iej85c5rzr.zip
6- I asked the Updater to install the OTA ROM
7- The rom installed i did uncheck fastboot from Settings > Power > Fastboot
8- I checked the Bootloader i found it as before i start to unlock it via HTCdev unlocker with the stock bootloader 1.07.0000 S-ON RL
Cheersssssssssssssssssssssss yahoooooooooooooooooooooo My waranty is back

I haven't checked on the Chacha, but on Motorola's there's a flash in fastboot that can tell you if warranty is void because of unlocking. Even relocking won't reset the flag.

adlx.xda lets look for it but i don`t think that HTC is that smart anyways if so no problem at less that it downgraded the Hboot from 1.10.0000 to 1.07.0000 and lock it
Sent from my HTC ChaCha A810e using XDA App

the variable I know from Motorola is: iswarrantyvoid
fastboot getvar iswarrantyvoid
Idk if it's valid for HTC though. Not tried yet.

is that usefull ?

I wouldn't count on this actually working tbh... I downgraded my bootloader to 1.04.0000, updated to 1.07.0000, then 1.10.0000 (the one from HTCDev) just to see what would happen, and upon applying 1.10.0000, it still showed as *** UNLOCKED ***. Doing a fastboot oem lock won't work either, your bootloader will say *** RELOCKED ***.
In short: the unlock flag is stored in a secret partition and is still visible no matter what bootloader is running

Dear qzfive..
I think you did S-Off to your device using XTC clip ? OR you did the downgrade using gold card ? Right

I S-OFF'd via the Clip a good month before HTC-Dev unlock, however that's not relevant in this situation. S-OFF and the HTC-Dev unlock definitely appear to be two seperate flags, since some people haven't used the Clip and have an HTC-Dev unlocked bootloader are S-ON.
I think that the HTC-Dev unlock/relock flag is on the same partition as the @secuflag, which controls S-ON and S-OFF. HTC would know how to read this partition and read the flags to determine if your warranty is void or not. Also, remember when you started the HTC-Dev unlock, and you had to get a unique ID key from your device? Chances are they also save that key onto their systems as one that's had its bootloader unlocked.
One additional note: doing radio flashes won't reset the flags either, as when I applied the different HBOOTS, radios were flashed along with them as part of an RUU or OTA.
Either way, after we've used the HTC-Dev unlock, we can say goodbye to our warranties

Dear I agree with you but if there is no secueflag says its locked or unlocked only and about the saving the code in thier system easy i can complain about maybe some hacker did stolen my SN. or somthing and he did register with it in thier system
any ways Warranty on or off i dont care because HTC service they are useless at the end
I am going to search how to read the SecureFlag from the partattion
Thank you any ways

You can reupload the file please?

I will upload it again tomorrow
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA App

how did u extract the ruu.exe file?, what program did u use?
I tried winrar and 7zip but nothing worked!

for extracting ruu file....
run the ruu.exe
wait till view read me and chacha image page come....
then..in computer..go to c>user>username>appdata>local>temp..
there you can folder with numbers..
select that folder and check,there will be a file named rom.zip..
extract that file..then flash the images..
sorry for bad english.....

could you re-upload please ?

Where can i get the boot.img , radio.img , recovery.img and system.img

tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1488672 but no luck.when starts to flash the recovery,the vertical progress bar stops and the phone begins to vibrate.
He also tried to flash the eng hboot to run a RUU,but seems he can't flash the hboot (hangs on "writing hboot").
thanks for any help.

Did your friend happen to pull his battery anytime before all this started?
Recovery doesn't just "disappear" - he must have done something prior to that...
Anyway, the first thing is to rule out (or in) a fried eMMC
So do this:
Set up adb/fastboot and connect your phone (link in my sig)
Then connect your device to the PC, enter recovery, open cmd (command prompt) on the PC and type:
adb shell
dmesg | grep mmc0
For further details, consult this excellent guide by amidabuddha:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1284196

thanks for the quick reply.when I have the output of the dmesg | grep mmc0 ,I'll post here.I haven't the phone with me,so I have to wait for my friend.

the phone,does not appear to be recognized by adb

but through fastboot devices the output is mb139tj10369 fastboot.
any ideas?

Well, since you can get to fastboot, try this anyway.
Also, see if flashing recovery again gets you up and running.
Boot into fastboot on the phone, and using the cmd terminal, push a new recovery to the phone. I'm attaching 4EXT recovery. Just download it, extract recovery.img from the zip file, put it into your adb/fastboot folder and issue the following command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then try to boot into recovery and tell me what you see...

Okay, i'm attaching 4EXT recovery in PG88IMG.zip format. Just place this on your sd card root, and boot into bootloader... it will try to flash this recovery on its own the moment it detects it. Let's see what happens...

I don't know what was there in that file... so i sent you mine.
But if fastboot wasn't working, the possibility of an eMMC brick is looming larger...
Just try the commands i asked you to type in my first post... I mean boot into bootloader, then see if these commands cough up a report... if it doesn't work, boot into fastboot and try again. You must have some kind of recovery man...
Also, you didn't say what happens when you select Recovery option from the bootloader... what happens?

...same as before,when starts to flash the recovery,the vertical progress bar stops and the phone hangs on "do not power off the device".
tried the dmesg | grep mmc0 both from bootloader and from fastboot but the phone,does not appear to be recognized by adb.
when he select recovery from the bootloader,appears the white screen with the htc logo,then the phone turns off itself vibrating.

Then i think your friend might have fried his eMMC.
Last resort is to call in the expert : Send a PM to amidabuddha, the guy whose guide i linked in my first post. I haven't found anyone more knowledgeable in these matters. If anyone can help you, its him.
I hope you can salvage the device...but its not looking very good....

thanks for your help,I'lll contact the expert

...and the expert has decreed:fried eMMC

[how to] change your MID without an eng bootloader

READ THIIS!
*this thread is for E8. it will NOT work on m7,or any older device. please check the general forum for your particular device for a similar thread.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
this thread is for the folks who wish tochage their MID in order to fully convert a device and recieve OTA updates. the method described here is not the only way to skin the cat,but as long as your careful the risk is very minimal, its quick and easy and doesnt require any hboot downgrades,eng hboot install,data loss,or having to run an ruu.
please note that s-off is required!

*i dont have E8. ian.anindya and a couple others have tested and provided dumps. please let me know and ill add you to the credits. also if someone wants to provide a copy of there cmd window doing the process,ill update that as well
standard disclaimer: use this information at your own risk. it has been tested,but copying the command incorrectly could have consequences. if you melt your phone into a smoldering little pile of aluminum goo, its not my fault.
secondary disclaimer: please use caution what mids you try and change. some devices may NOT be capable of being covertable to other devices due to available radio bands. in these cases,conversion may result in a bricked,or non-finctional device and may not be recoverable. i dont have the knowledge of E8 to say whats safe and whats not.

IF you are an advanced user with adb/fastboot set up and some basic knowlede of the cmd window,you can skip to #2
1)set up adb(windows 7 and older)
-download this file
-install drivers: if you have htc sync installed,you should allready have drivers. if not,you can install htc sync,or install these modified htc drivers from revolutionary (driver mirror)
-unzip your miniadb_v1031.zip file. this is native funtionality in windows 7. you otherwise may need a utility such as "7-zip" to extract,or unzip it. place the unzipped folder onto the root of your C drive on your PC. root means the top level,not inside any folders. so just copy and paste,or drag and drop the folder onto C with everything else that is there. you may want to rename it to "miniadb_m7" since youll be putting some device specific files in here.
-open a command window. on windows 7,click the start bubble in the lower left and type "command" in the search box. xp i believe is similar or the same. doing this should open a small black command window.
-change to your miniadb_m7 directory. type the following at the prompt in your cmd window:
cd c:\miniadb_m7
your command promt should change to "c:miniadb_m7>" provided you: 1)unzipped the miniadb_v1031 zip file,and 2)put the folder on your c drive,and 3)entered the name of the folder correctly ("miniadb_m7" in this case)
-now make sure usb debugging is checked in developer options(you will need to turn it on first),and plug your phone into your PC with a usb cable
-make sure your phone is being recognized- type:
adb devices
if your drivers are installed correctly,this should return your phones serial number. you should hear the "found device" noises when you plug your phone in. if it starts installing drivers,wait for it to finish before typing the adb devices command.
if you get your serial number back,then enter this command:
adb reboot bootloader
this should take your phone to the "fastboot" screen,wich is white with colored letters. this is one mode of your bootloaders interactive modes. at the top youll see fastboot devices as confirmation youre in fastboot.
now enter:
fastboot devices
again,this should return your phones serial number. you should hear the "found device" noises when you plug your phone in. if it starts installing drivers,wait for it to finish before typing the adb devices command.
if you get your serial number back,you can enter the following to boot back to the phones OS:
fastboot reboot
and now,youve installed adb/fastboot and tested youre phones drivers. if at either spot,you have trouble and dont get your serial number back,there is some sort of connection issue. use these steps to troubleshoot:
troubleshooting connectivity issues:
-try a reboot of the PC
-try different usb cables and ports
-dont use a usb hub
-dont use usb 3.0
-make sure nothing capable of comunicating with the phone is enabled and running. htc sync,pdanet,easy tether,and even itunes have all been known to cause issues.
-windows 8 has been known to have issues. try a windows 7 or older machine
failing the above,
-i use these drivers for fastboot and adb(donwload and run as admin): http://downloads.unrevoked.com/HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe (mirror)
failing that,try manually updating the drivers in the following manner:
-put the phone in fastboot mode(select fastboot from the hboot menu)
-open device manager on the PC
-plug in phone,watch for it to pop up in device manager.
-update drivers with device manager,pointing the wizard to the extracted
driver download folder from above
note that you can check the connectivity of the phone,and make sure drivers are working by in the following manner:
-open cmd window. change to directory containing adb/fastboot utilities
-adb with the phone in the booted OS,usb debug enabled,enter:
adb devices in a cmd window
-fastboot with phone in fastboot,enter:
fastboot devices in cmd window
in either case,a properly connected phone with working drivers installed should report back the phones serial number.

I haven't looked in to that,and for the most part it does not seem to be needed. I've converted m7_u to m7_ul variants without changing the product id and ruus, otas,etc work fine.
However... Just because you can,does not mean that you should. Folks have found that's its not a good idea to try and convert cdma world phones to gsm variants. For example m7_wlv to m7_ul.
So use caution in the conversions that you attempt

Hi DutchDanny,
Would be grateful if you could help me with a query. I would like to change my Indian M8Sd (mec_dwgl, HTC__038, 0PAJ40000) to change into EU M8Sw (mec_dugl, HTC__001, 0PAJ21000) so that I can flash the latest EU OTA. I have done CID/MID mod before and tried chinese RUU (this was not much of a success as the phone kept rebooting).
I am using the phone in the UK and desperately trying to get 4g/LTE. What do you think the prospects of success?
Many thanks.

converting to another variants firmware/software will NOT let you have different radio bands. this is mainly to run different stock software,and recieve stock OTA updates.
radio bands are at a much deeper level within the phone,and not accessible. youll pick up the same bands after a conversion as you do before.
as ive mentioned,be extremely careful what you do. trying to install gsm softare and firmware on a cdma,or cdma/gsm "world phone" or vice versa can cause irreversable damage and even hard bricks in some scenarios.
my advice would be if you cannot use your device as is,sell it and obtain a device intended for the region/carrier that you want to use it in.

The Story of my lost and recovery IMEI = 0 into GOOD

FIRST AT ALL, BE SURE WHAT YOU DO, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE, ETC... AT YOUR OWN RISK, THIS IS MY EXPERIENCE, IT CAN BUT IT MUST NOT WORK ON YOUR PHONE, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED BERFORE DOING ANY ACTION​
Guys, this is a story of a 3 year odyssey to get my IMEI on this phone back and at the end, YES!!! it works again. 100% full signal came back.
Now let's get into in....
First, tools you need to recovery your IMEI again.
- phone must be unlocked
- phone must be root
- phone should be on original stock 5.1
- TWRP Recovery ROM (use twrp-3.0.2-0-xt1032)
- from PlayStore download "Partitions Backup"
- from PlayStore download "Root Browser"
- XPOSED Framework and XPOSED Installer
- IMEI CHANGER (XPOSED MODULE)
- .IMG (use attached)
The story:
A friend of mine bought 2013 a Moto G (1st Gen) and wanted to root by himself. Root doesen't work, so he kept up. He decided to put an other rom on his phone, what he doesen't know, he erased all with command everything before (DICKHEAD): Fastboot erase all and Fastboot erase recovery <-- KILLER
From this moment.. after rebooting his phone the was no signal anymore. Serveral ROM and MODEMS tried out. Nothing just WIFI works. He gave the phone to me. 3 years later i wanted to re-awake this wonderful phone back to life.
Now, here comes the steps, you should do, to re-gain your phone...
01. choose and use a stock 5.1 rom of your country and flash it by fastboot command as always...
02. after rom installation and after reboot, install TWRP recovery rom with fastboot
03. reboot into recovery and install root in TWRP (use: UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46)
04. reboot and download from PlayStore "Partitions Backup" and "Root Browser" and "IMEI Changer"
05. download XPOSED Framework (zip) and XPOSED Installer (apk)
06. reboot into TWRP install XPOSED Framework
07. reboot and install the XPOSED Installer APK with Root Browser and install IMEI Changer Module in XPOSED
08. reboot system, go into IMEI Changer and change your IMEI (under the back cover of your phone)
09. reboot and type in phone *#06#, you should see right now your IMEI, but the signal is already lost right? Okay, let's go ahead...
10. now return into Root Browser and see if there is a folder on your SDCARD "PartitionsBackups", if not, start the App and return
11. copy all three .img (attached) into it, start the App "Partitions Backup" again. Navigate to 3 dotted menu and and check "Restore a Partition"
12. navigate with "Root Browser" to the folder "PartitionsBackups" on SDCARD and use the first one, if successful, restore also the both other partitions. Forget the dd commands in terminal or cmd (doesent work), use the APP on top.
13. if it's done, reboot and pray... GOOD LUCK
14. Congrats, your signal should be back.
15. use Partitions Backup to backup all your partitions (as .img) and store them elsewhere.
16. set IMEI Changer as inactive and reboot, check with *#06#, otherwise let it active
17. !!! GIVE ME A THANKS, IF YOU ARE HAPPY WITH THIS !!!​

Bro, I also lost my imei number for moto e, it shows imei: 0, but in fastboot getvarall, it shows imei number.I think the img file you have attached will be different for moto e. I am ready to do anything, please guide. Thanks and regards

Im not an expert, but this method seems dangerous. The partitions you have attached are unique to your device, and flashing them on another device could cause serious permanent problems. I would suggest you remove these instructions until it is known what is contained within the hob, dhob and fsc partitions, unless someone can correct me.

Its up to the user to doing any action. This is my story, and my very own solution here, i wrote.

What problems? Even if they are the same IMEI still there is little chance that 2 users to be in the same country same network and same city. Anyway there are a lot of people who used the command and are screwed so it's great tutorial to revive the device

Exactly, this could mean that an inexperienced user might follow these instructions without understanding the implications. And when you say this is your very own solution, it's literal. This solution only applies to your specific device.

The IMEI duplication was only an example. There could be many other irreversible issues that the user doesn't even immediately realise.
Essentially, these partitions should never be overwritten without first taking a backup.

Yes of course, u re right
Gesendet von meinem SM-A310F mit Tapatalk

Haha, I'm not fussed with being right - just wanting to point out/give my opinion on the possible risks.
By all means keep your tutorial, but could I suggest adding a step where the 3 partitions are backed up before they are overwritten, just in case they need those partitions in the future.

Thank you so much for this really useful guide, I was hopeless and finally after 3 years was able to make my phone work.
