[Q] FAILED (remote: not allowed) need a little help

Hello!
Just got my hands on a desire S from someone who said they bricked it, i dont think it is though.
I can access fastboot/HBOOT but it doesnt seem to have a custom recovery installed, shows the stock recovery or download mode logo, the screen goes blank and vibrates 7 times.
Every time i try to flash anything through fastboot it gives me the error in the heading
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
The ROM just doesnt boot and shows T mobile logo indefinitely (must be a bootloop) but the phone doesnt have any Tmo logos on the body.
more details
SAGA PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-0.98.0002
RADIO-3805.06.02.03_M

I read about ENG S-off but i dont know what this phone has, maybe its just radio S-OFF cos its Tmo and doesnt have a recovery though i dont understand what the 7 vibrates mean either.
little help please?

7 vibrations most likely mean overheating, and this can't be cured by any means.
The phone is S-OFF, but doesn't have Engineering HBOOT - so you can't use fastboot, it won't allow you (just what it says).
Your best bet is to try a stock RUU and see if it helps.

Download a PG88IMG.zip from an eng hboot, copy it to root of sd (cardreader), boot to bootloader and let it do his job.
Afterwards delete the zip boot to bootloader once more and flash a recovery with fastboot.
I would use a ruu only if those steps fail.

Hey Tectas I tried your method,
went here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178001
and got the first radio which had the same number as mine ie this one
From the 1.31.832.3 RUU:
20.28d.30.0805U_3805.04.02.01
says cid incorrect.
shall i try all the ones with 3805 in them? cos i really have no clue which one is right for me considering i dunno which RUU is compatible with this phone

No, not radio, leave it untouched yet, the hboot is what you need
Check my signature, I personally would recommend this one

even for this PG88IMG.zip which is the 1mb hboot file it says cid incorrect update fail press power to reboot

Do you know from which regions your phone is?
Try in fastboot : fastboot getvar all, and Google your main version then download the appropriate file from this link

Once you are sure you have the right RUU, you might have to make a goldcard to get rid of the CID error

The whole point of having "right" RUU is to avoid this error - having RUU for his specific region gets rid of CID error message. Otherwise he just needs any RUU and goldcard.

I have what seems to be the right RUU..
now when i try to install it, the RUU installer hangs and the phone also hangs.
I should reiterate that my phone DOES NOT BOOT into the rom, has what may be boot loop error. If i could access android i wouldnt be asking any of these questions as from in there all this is easy peasy!
i'm trying booting into Hboot and fastboot to install this. as far as i remember it doesnt work here so how else can i go about it?
once again, no custom recovery, no eng bootloader, no working android rom
Thanks to all of you who tried to help by the way

3 possibilities:
1. Let the ruu run without attached device till the only option is to close the program, search in your temp folder for the rom.zip, copy it to another folder, close the program, copy it to sd and try to flash it the same way you did before with the hboot (rename the rom.zip to PG88IMG.zip before you flash it)
2. Do the same like at 1. but create a goldcard before
3. Do the same I described before with hboot, but create a goldcard before
Swyped because PC is under full load or to far away

If the RUU installer hangs - your chances aren't too good.
If it hangs on "rebooting to bootloader" - boot to FASTBOOT manually and start RUU while in fastboot mode.
If it hangs updating - chances are you're another case of faulty eMMC.

gave the phone to some guy in the market. says he'll take 5£ to open it and check it out and let me know whats wrong.
the RUU rom.zip file when renamed to pg88img.zip or whatever does work as its the only zip file it detects in hboot mode,
it starts the update, heats up like an angry mountain and then sucks its battery off..
thanks you guys for all the help. I'll update you on what was the actual problem when this guy tells me so you know what these symptoms are for in future

Have you tried using the gold card? As it has already been stated that it should get rid of the wrong cid issue.

[Q] Sensation XE Bootloop

Hi,
I'm having a bootloop on my sensation xe. I never used a custom rom or anything, and last week i got the following error while updating an app:
"Couldn’t install on USB storage or SD card" I rebooted my phone, and then i got stuck in a bootloop (booting till the htc logo, then rebooting).
I tried to flash a stock RUU from fastboot following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672425 . The command line showed no errors while flashing, but this didn't help.
Also flashing 4ext and cwm recoveries didn't work, the commandline showed no errors, but on the screen of my phone the little progress bar on the upper right side never got filled, and the recovery just goes straight to the htc logo, and then rebooting again..
Version:
Relocked
Pyramid pvt ship s-on rl

cid: HTC__E11
mid: PG5813001
Is there anything else i can try, or should i send it out to be repaired?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, i tried with unlocked bootloader and just like that step from the guide. After that i tried to flash again a stock ruu so that's why the bootloader was relocked again.

Running the ruu again now. I did try a factory reset, but again it jumps straight to the htc logo and then loops again
Edit: Same thing, rom update successfull, but keeps boot looping.. I did notice that the update seem to jump from 65% to 100% very fast, could that mean something?

You have latest hboot (1.29), AFAIK it cannot be completely unlocked.
Also, it is 'Relocked' ? Use htc dev token to unlock it again, than flash 4ext, and use it with 'smartflash' turned on.

[Q] Help with stuck logo & reboots.

I have a HTC sensation which I am trying to fix.
It was working fine and then did an OTA update and it would not boot again and would lock up on the HTC logo with a white background.
I did manage to unlock the phone, but it is still S-ON because I am unable to get into the phone normally to get revolutionary to detect the phone correctly because it cant find the phone in recovery mode.
I managed to get EXT4 recovery image installed which helped me flash the rom to cyanogenmod 10.1 but it will reboot every 5 seconds after it loads into the menu.
I did a super wipe and installed ARHD but it only gets to the beats audio logo before restarting.
I was unable to find the correct stock rom or the RUU because the CID is TELNZ which doesn't seem to have many stock rom files around.
I believe that if I can find the RUU_PYRAMID_TELNZ then it will help me fix the device, but I can't find it on the net.
I tried to write a super CID so I could flash any rom to it but it doesn't work:
C:\AndroidSDK\sdk\tools>fastboot oem writecid 11111111
...
(bootloader) vreg_set: request is duplicated id 14

(bootloader) sdcc_init_memory_device done
(bootloader) [FAT_ERROR] fat_open_file: can not find SMART_IO.CRD
(bootloader) [JAVACARD_ERR] SMART_IO.CRD cann't find
I tried to manually update the phone with (I had to edit the file and add TELNZ*** to it):
C:\AndroidSDK\sdk\tools>fastboot flash zip PG58IMG.zip
sending 'zip' (14242 KB)...
OKAY [ 3.087s]
writing 'zip'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
I also tried to put PG58IMG.zip on the SD card but the phone fails to update from the image with no error after it finishes "checking" the file.
Here is the info that I have gathered from the device:
Model: HTC sensation z710a
version: 0.5
version-bootloader: 1.18.0000
version-baseband: 10.14.9035.02_2

partition-layout: Generic
security: on
build-mode: SHIP
boot-mode: FASTBOOT
commitno-bootloader: 9d24123f

What I am hoping to do is to get the device S-OFF and install ARHD Sensation 7.3 or a working install of cyanogenmod 10.1.
If anyone could offer me any help, that would be greatly appreciated.
**update 1**
I have found the reason that the roms are restarting constantly.
Basically the 1.18 HBOOT version I have is too low and causing issues.
I need to update to 3.33 but the revolution tool cant get root, so I am trying to use the Tacoroot method to try and get revolution to work.
The issue I am now facing is that I cant get past the first step because of this error: "failed to copy 'tacoroot.bin' to '/data/local/tacoroot.bin': Permission denied"

Yeah i forgot that device you mention your device is still S-ON and that's why i removed my abov post but you can still flash GB RUU.. let me find..

You're s-on... Then you must flash boot.img of the ROM you're trying to flash, using fastboot commands:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then immediately reboot.

Thanks.
To go into greater detail, does this mean that I need to download hTC-Stock-FirmWare-3.33.401.6 (HBOOT-1.29.0000+boot.img+Radio+Recovery+etc.) and manually flash the boot.img via CMD?
What I have managed to do so far is run superwipe and install SENSEaY_XE35_v2.1.0 which is a modified GB rom.
I tried to then run the revolutionary method to get S-OFF but it always just corrupted the rom.
I also tried the tacoroot method but that corrupted the rom as well.
So for now I'm just leaving it with SENSEaY_XE35_v2.1.0 installed since that is the only thing that works and seems to be stable on the phone.

[Q] Rooting mistake

Hey guys.
I wanted to root my HTC One S, and I read that the program SuperOneClick was the fastest way of doing it, so I went ahead and connected the HTC to my PC with the USB cable and clicked "root". After like 15 minutes however the program didn't do anything, it just froze and I had to close it. Root Checker Basic said something similiar to no valid root or something. Tried to click "unroot" now so I could start again with a different method, froze again, closed SuperOneClick again. What am I supposed to do now? Is rooting it again safe as I now probably have some half / corrupted root? And can someone link me to the best method? Thanks in advance.

Did you unlock the bootloader?

Just unlocked the bootloader and flashed cwm, my own fault for using superoneclick. Thanks anyway ;p

Sorry for the double post. I may need some help as I probably bricked(?) my One S.
Didn't do anything root-related for a long time so I think I made a beginner's mistake.
What I did was unlock (htcDEV), and flash CWM recovery.
I tried installing liquid kitkat custom rom, but now it won't boot, not even in recovery.
Help?
EDIT: It's stuck in a boot loop :/

FIRST you need to know which phone / firmware you got.
Enter fastboot, connect to pc, open CMD and type "fastboot getvar all"
Copy the log and post it here please. Delete IMEI/serial before you post the log. Then i can exactly tell you what you need to install

HTC One S - S4 ville - generic dutch version
You will just need to flash the kernel contained in the rom (boot.img) via fastboot (S-ON means u need to flash kernel manually) to fix your installation
Generally I'd suggest
Flash this recovery via fastboot --> TWRP 2.7.0.8
(its compatible to the lastest CM11 versions 05/01/2014 and newer
And may be try PAC rom (I just love it)

I indeed just flashed the boot.img seperately which was in the rom, and now it works. It's a huge relief to see my phone work again, thanks a lot!!
One more thing so I avoid messing up in the future; When I decide to install another rom, do I always do a factory reset / clear cache, then flash the rom and flash the kernel via fasboot?

Looks like I was cheering too early. Roughly 1 minute after launching my phone, .comSystemGUI or something along those lines stopped working, and whenever I pressed "ok" the message would instantly return. I can't connect my phone to my PC to put another ROM on it since the message won't disappear. Also I tried re-flashing the same ROM, but now it says can't mount storage/sdcard0.
Really frustrating!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2206434
This topic guided me into getting the sdcard mountable again, but in the process I lost the rom .zip file.
And my phone won't boot anymore, it doesn't get past the HTC logo, so I can't put a new rom on it and flash it.
What is there left for me to do? Stock rom? How do I find the stock rom?
Thanks in advance.

I figured it out, thanks for your guidance LS.xD!
Basically what I did was mount the SD storage in CWM and transfer Pac-man rom onto the storage, then flash the .zip, flash Gapps and finally in bootloader fastboot the boot.img (because I'm S-ON). Maybe this will help anyone.
EDIT: Someone may wanna be careful with using TWRP, it corrupted my SD storage for a while.

SD card bug can also be caused by CWM or flashing a rom (Viper really loves to brick SD). I never had any issues with TWRP. The only SD card bug I had in over a year flashing roms to my One S was caused by flashing CWM

Can you get into the bootloader? If you can, you can flash TWRP recovery via fastboot and flash a custom Rom with the recovery.

Yes

Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292432 . Read through and find the recovery there. It is pretty well explained there. I am on my mobile so I am not sure of the link will take you to the first page. It is on the first page. Make sure you get the correct recovery for your phone model.

Original rom
Where i can get original ROM for HTC ONE SV LTE k2ul_4.2.2_3.11.401.1 ???

That I do not know, but if my memory serves me right, there was a thread either in android development or general sections with the latest OTAs. You might wanna search for that...

You've already got the link to my index thread, but it seems you are to lazy to have a look at it. You even only need to watch for the software number and you will easily find what you are searching for.

Os intallation failed
i tried to install OTA update through TWRP recovery , but it failed

You can't flash this in recovery. Use TWRP recovery and flash the rom (not the Ota). Links are in my index thread.

Installed rom
Sucessfully instaled Viper SV rom,
but still phone did not booting,

Did you also flash boot.img of the rom in fastboot?

no

You can't get S-off, without working OS.
You don't have an OS anymore on your phone?
Are you running a custom recovery like TWRP?
Run this fastboot cmd and copy the output here (remove your imei & serial number):
Code:
fastboot getvar all

I flashed TWRP and I make restore, but phone won't start anyway. Maybe need to flash new os?

Flash the stock rom in TWRP, and don't forget to flash boot.img of the rom in fastboot.
Links are in my index thread.
Make a backup in recovery (just in case) and a wipe (advanced -> everything except int & ext sdcard) before.

Something I make wrong. I flashed TWRP, then installed ViperSV, phone restarted and booted TWRP. Then I found boot.img in yours index thead.
Then in fastboot flashed new boot, but phone still booting in TWRP. What I make wrong?

You need to flash the boot.img thats inside the ViperSV.zip, not any from my index thread.
