Hello. I decided to start a new thread. I have a Moonshine s-off phone. Recently I reset the phone put stock recovery on it and ran the newest RUU. It worked I got the new software[emoji3] . Then I unlocked the phone using the HTCDev method and my old unlock key, everything worked, when I went into BOOTLOADER phone said TAMPERED UNLOCKED S-OFF.
The only thing missing is my camera. Sometimes it turns on, but very rarely ( maybe 1/200 tries ). It tells me Unable To Start The Camera.
I think it's a software glitch, as with previous version of Android I had no issues. Also with the new OS the flash is BUSY sometimes. When I want to use a flashlight phone tells me PHONE SCREEN WILL BE USED FOR ILLUMINATION SINCE THE FLASH IS IN USE BY OTHER APP. There is no other app running...
I tried flashing TWRP but fastboot just hangs, I left it on for 3 hours and it never finished. I tried using the SD IMG method. It goes thru, tells me to reboot. When I do I'm on the same stock recovery...
I have backups of my phone. But they are all done with TWRP and I can't install it. I tried CWM as well, same result, timeout.
I might try running a lower version RUU and see if that fixes all...

Hi,
I have a htc pro 7 bought in the uk and was running mango running the latest 5.11 bootloader, and i wanted to go to the newtech rom.
I downloaded RUU_Gold7Pro_HTC_Europe_5.11.401.02_Radio_5.71.09.02a_22.51.50.21U_NT_Mango_8107_22L_by_ansar (1)
and
RUU_Gold_7Pro_Europe_5.10.401.03_SLSPL_by_ansar
from the links in the forum and they downloaded completely.
I first powered into bootloader with vol down and then used the ROMUpdateUtility to flash the RUU_Gold_7Pro_Europe_5.10.401.03_SLSPL_by_ansar file which seemed to flash fine, the progress bar completed and phone ended up in the bootloader again.
Then following the instructions i went to the other file but when i ran the update utility this time it found the phone and tried to update but never got past 0% before prompting me that it failed after a 10minish wait.
I was able to pull the battery and turn on back into bootloader mode but when i tried flashing the second file again, it failed. (Should I be reflashing the first again every time too?)
I wondered if the package was faulty and so downloaded 7713_GOLD_USA_CHT_CHS_JPN_KOR(www.dft.so) package of the dft release but the same thing, stalls at 0%.
I am left in bootloader (attached pic) and before trying to go back to stock mango using the zune update would like to know if there is a way to get to (ideally) the intrinsic rom.
Many thanks for your help,
Edit:
Adding that I am using windows 7, will try xp on my old PC as soon as zune software can download....
Also is there a way to get out bootloader mode? as restarting just goes back into the bootloader again...?

Solved!
Solved!
Ok Sorted it in the end, It was my fault, I missed a step.
If anyone else gets this problem (and the error 262 in romutility to go with it) and you are left in bootloader 1.7 its simple.
My first steps were right, first flash RUU_Gold_7Pro_Europe_5.10.401.03_SLSPL_by_ansar
and then you get the bootloader, and you then have the 1.7 bootloader problem, but are NOT yet ready for custom roms!
you must then flash RUU_Gold_HTC_Europe_1.22.401.01_Radio_5.63.09.13_3a_22.36.50.15U_by_ansar
(or similar) which will you give you a 1.22 radio.
From here you can then use the dft tool to get a rspl or hspl as needed, and from there you can then flash a custom rom.
I stupidly didn't realise and thought that the slspl replaced the downgrade, which it doesnt!
Glad I got that cleared up! Am now on the custom rom and all seems good!
Edit:
Exact same symptoms here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318726
Bootloader:SPL - 1.7.2250.0
MID: PC921000
my current Windows Phone 7 Version: 7.0.7392.0
wont appear in zune, wont flash with custom rom, gives error 262.

Hi, today I got the notification on my G (India-Dual Sim version) that the 4.4.4 was available to download.
I tried to go back to stock recovery to do the upgrade but for some reason it didn´t work, I was able to flash but the stock recovery never came up. In the end I decided to give a shot and see what happened.
I have the CWM recovery, and it notified me that the file used for the update had not a correct signature, decided to continue, no problems so far. In the end it notified me that maybe root may have some issues (the same warning when you root the phone the first time), told it to fix it and it rebooted.
All smooth and so far no problems, but it did show a warning on the main screen (after being all loaded) that something went wrong, but the phone booted OK and the system version is 4.4.4, maybe something to do with the stock recovery or something, don´t know, but so far, is you have CWM, I believe you can do the OTA update withouth problem.
Will let you know if something comes up.
It's been a long night and I'm at a complete loss as to what to look for next...
Around 9PM last night, my phone randomly rebooted... it's done this a few times before, and i thought nothing of it. When it finally booted back up, I was at the "choose your language" setup screen. WTF.
I lost literally EVERYTHING.
FYI, this was on stock rom, and I didn't even have the OTA(s) because I was rooted and was content with 4.4.2
Well, since all my data was gone, I figured it was about time to see what I could get with a custom ROM. The phone's been sluggish lately, so I figured a bloat-less upgrade would help.
Long story short, I loaded the 5.1 firmwares for VZW, and the HBOOT as well, and flashed GPE_5.1 on it. It took it like a champ, but refused to boot. I tried changing the kernels during the GPE install, but none of them worked. Some would loop, some would kick me into recovery, and one would just stall and the animation would run forever. No worries, I'm sure I can go to a stock 5.x rom! But that's a big NOPE. I just get "installation aborted" with no reasoning or errors in CWM (I had TWRP at one point as well, and it didn't get me anywhere either) Or I get "symlink: some symlinks failed" ... it depends what rom i'm flashing.
I've tried stock and custom, rooted and not... literally nothing will take.
ALSO, in my attempts to remedy the problem, I tried to reflash the firmware, but fastboot starts that there's not enough space. A quick google search pointed to "not enough ram in the PC" which is BS because it's done it on 2 different systems, both with 16GB ram, one running Win8.1 and the other Win7.
To top it all off, somehow I relocked the phone (but i still have S-OFF) and without being able to boot into the OS, I can't unlock it with SunShine/Firewater.
Hopefully, someone can point me in the right direction...
Welp... It's working now...
Not 100% sure what I ended up doing that worked, but I was able to run the unlocker via creating a new unlock_code.bin from htcdev and ran that with the all in one toolkit.
From there, I was able to use the toolkit to flash a stock ruu rom (I flashed the 5.0.1 RUU, but when it booted, I was still in 4.4.2)
It apparently didn't like somwething in the boot order other than the ROM itself.
I'm now running S-OFF, relocked but rooted 5.0.1 after it took several OTAs. Not sure how many more OTA's are pending, but it just keeps prompting me lol...
At this point, I'm just happy it's booting, stock or not. I don't even know what recovery I'm running at this point...
Did you update your recovery??? To the latest one
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Please could someone help ! I'm trying to unlock my XT1032. I have the correct Sim-Unlock (network unlock) code from my old telco, but... it won't work because the phone is rooted, bootloader unlocked (S-ON) running CM13.
I figured that returning it to a stock build would allow me to unlock the phone, then I could re-root and return to CM13 on my new network.
However..... there are about a dozen guides on returning a Moto G to stock and the first one I tried left the phone stuck on the 'Warning: Bootloader is unlocked' message. Since then, I've tried several other guides and have got nowhere fast. I've been on this for four hours now and the only thing I seem to be able achieve is to get TWRP or CWM recovery on there by flashing from fastboot. Every other image I try either gives 'preflash validation failed' messages, sticks on the Bootloader Unlocked screen or gets it stuck in a bootloop!
I just want to switch networks... Why is this so bloody difficult ?
What Firmware did your XT1032 originally come with? or which Carrier?
Kitkat I think, and it's Tesco (UK).
I subsequently did the OTA update to Lollipop and then.... WHOAAAAA.... hold on... it's booting !!!
I don't know how, or what I've done to get this far, but the only thing I can think of that's changed is that the battery is now at 100% charge. It appears as though it's successfully flashed the 5.1 untouched ROM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=7981#downloads
But, I've tried flashing that loads of times this evening and it's failed everytime.
Having said that it's booting, it's sitting here on the Motorola logo - and it hasn't got that far in the last five hours.... I'll be back shortly !
Update: It worked ! It completed the boot, I put the new SIM in, it asked for the unlock code and this time it worked OK. Now I'm tackling putting CM13 back on it. I think I'll stick with TWRP rather than CWM recovery, as long as TWRP can handle the automatic updating for the CM nightlies.
I have no idea what went wrong there - maybe it was just that the battery had to be at 100% ?? Who knows... Thankfully I doubt I'll be tackling that again !
I don't know if things have changed, but I would be careful with OTA Updates in CM. People have hard-bricked (phone is effectively destroyed) applying updates in this way. I also suggest you avoid official Motorola updates, rather use the factory firmware images available here: (which already include the content of OTA Updates)
[INDEX] Moto G [Falcon][Peregrine] Factory Firmware Images
Thanks for replying anyway mate. In the end, it's all good now. Unlocked and back on CM13 and on my new network !
Ahhh... not so good after all. The phone reboots every time you try to uninstall an app. I've tried flashing back to CM12.1, the latest stable release, and it does the same, so I've obviously screwed something up along the way.
Could someone help me flatten this thing completely and get it working normally please?
I've tried reflashing loads of times, even tried Cyanogen Recovery instead of TWRP but nothing I do gets rid of this reboot problem.
Can anyone assist please?
OK, so I've followed the procedure detailed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-lollipop-rom-t3017510 and flashed the Untouched 5.0.2. EU Stock ROM successfully, but it still reboots when you try to uninstall any app.
Whatever it is that's causing this is not getting overwritten by the flashing procedures I'm using is it ?
HELP !!!!!
@aneng64 - You have not done what I told you to do. Read my post again.
Yes I did... and I still had the same problem. It was only once I stopped trying to flash zips from TWRP and used mfastboot to flash the whole set individually (non-hlos, motoboot etc) that I got it to behave. The issue, incidentally, seemed to be the same one mentioned elsewhere here that also causes settings to crash when you try to go into settings, security.
Once it was stable with a stock ROM, I was able to flash CM13 again and it's now sorted. Thanks for your help anyway.
I have an HTC One M9 (Sprint) software version 2.11.651.19 (OPJA2) with Android v5.1
Within the last couple months I unlocked the devices bootloader, and rooted it. Last night I left the phone under my laptop and I'm thinking it got way way way too hot, somehow the thing is still alive, however when I went to turn it on in the morning, I had no wifi or cellular capabilities. At first I assumed this was a hardware issue, however I then unrooted the device on a whim, and this fixed it (Until I turned it off again, to my dismay).
I'm thinking somehow my phone overheated (Which explains why my battery life won't go over 47%) and somehow my flash memory must have been corrupted because I can no longer boot into recovery mode, which is my serious catch 22. Since I figure this is some issue related to my firmware, which I would LIKE to reflash (This is my goal here). To my dismay, in order to flash a stock RUU or firmware to the device, you must have your bootloader relocked. However in order to relock your bootloader you must have root, and like an idiot I unrooted it. I can't reinstall SuperSU through my TWRP recovery because my phone refuses to boot into recovery mode. I attempted to re-flash TWRP to the device through download mode, the flashing is completed successfully, however I still cannot boot into my recovery. To break it down simply:
-Want to reflash stock firmware
-Must have root to reflash stock firmware/RUU
-Don't have root because I uninstalled it
-Can't re-root because my recovery is corrupted
-Can't re-flash TWRP (Already tried and it's not working)
-Can't re-root because I can't flash TWRP
-Can't reflash stock firmware because I can't disable it with root
Regardless of this I attempted to use adb and echo to relock the bootloader however instead of getting # I get $, so I'm not really able to do this either. Is there ANY way I can repair my recovery, has anyone ever run into an issue like this before? Or am I just completely screwed, hahaha.
Do you think I might be able to reflash Android V5.1 to try and fix the corruption and then maybe that would allow me to get into recovery mode so I can flash Super SU so I can at least factory reset my device with TWRP, or possible reload stock firmware and factory reset from there?
Thanks guys for any help you can provide.
*EDIT
If anyone wants to provide any advice great, but for now I'm going to try using HTC Sync Manager to load Marshmallow (v6.0) onto the HTC and see if this may allow me to actually get into recovery mode. Downloading the file from here: *nevermind can't post links yet, under 10 posts, you can find it on HTC's website* (This is for the HTC One M9, Sprint) in case anyone else EVER has to run into this awful issue, lol.
Moderators please feel free to update the thread to SOLVED status, I was able to update my phone to marshmallow to resolve the issue. This time around I WILL be backing up my phone, probably not going to root it this time around either, I have like 3 other phones so I'll just root them instead, lol. If you would like the download link I am happy to provide it VIA PM so you can update my OP with the link for the full fix. My phone is able to get wifi and texts now without an issue, unfortunately all my data is wiped but honestly I don't really care!!
Thanks everyone!
Good job on solving your issue.
