[Solved] HTC Butterfly S-Off, Unlock, Bootloader & TWRP Recovery "Stuck in bootloop." - HTC Butterfly

[Solved] HTC Butterfly S-Off, Unlock, Bootloader & TWRP Recovery "Stuck in bootloop."
PLEASE try to HELP or acknowlede!
Please forgive me for contacting you as such but I'm desparate right now.
Dear All,
I'm wound up in a bootloop. Please help at the earliest.
This is my current status and a little history.
1. I was flashed InsertCoin 3.0.6 on my x920d (originally HTC_038) a couple of days ago (and did a TWRP Backup after That),
2. Had unlocked my previous, old custom rom (thru HTCDev), S-Off (thru rumrunner) and
3. rooted by flashing 'UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02' from recovery after flashing the ROM a couple of days earlier.
4. I had also flashed Kairi's firmware-kk (which is for HTC_061) as I had Super CID 11111111 by "fastboot oem writecid..." method, now I'm not able to do it anymore).
Anyway, there was some problem (wrongly presumed by me) with the htc backup/restore function, so I reflashed the IC3.0.6 rom a couple of times thru recovery(TWRP 2.7 by Kairi). And the device booted perfectly.
Stupidly, I happened to flash '[ROM] FireKatN4 Deodex V5 TW 4.4.4' through Kairi's recovery. Link of the ROM - http://forum.xda-developers.com/note...emely-t2916463.
Thish rom was for Samsung T Mobile Galaxy Note 4 N910T and it did not flashed properly; so I re-flashed IC3.0.6 thru recovery (if required I can perform this again) and it showed successful at the end.
Now since then whenever I reboot it get stuck in bootloop.
Since yesterday I have been trying various steps (repeated several times and not inchronological order):
- Unlocked the bootloader thru HTCDev once again.
- Flashing the firmware-kk thru oemRUU after changing the CID to 11111111 in the 'adroid-info file" of this firmware's zip. (it gave Remote90 error and after repeating fastboot flash zip firmware-kk.zip it flashed.
Although in between it said "signature checking, verified fail - Bypassing" and then continued on its own after that, successful at the end. However on my device the green bar moved only to 90% and remained there.)
- Rebooted into bootloader, tried flashing the same firmware with Error :
"C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash zip firmware-kk.zip
target reported max download size of 1514139648 bytes
sending 'zip' (19401 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.975s]
writing 'zip'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 2.011s"
Now my status is:
Although I'm able to flash recovery img thru fastboot. I can do it from oem rebootRUU.
My Getvar all read as :

Now
1. I,m S-Off, Relocked/Unlocked Bootloader (able to do this thru fastboot).
2. Can boot into bootloader & TWRP Recovery - Kairi's, but cannot boot the phone.
3. After flashed IC3.0.6 thru recover once again. when rebooting, get stuck in bootloop again.
Please try to help me out.
P.S. I have somescreenshots available of several steps, if required.

Did you flash the kk firmware twice? It will fail on the first go so flash again.

Yes Clarkie,
I had flashed firmware-kk thru 'fastboot oem rebootRUU', then 'fastboot flash zip fimware-kk.zip'
It gave me th 90 error and I repeated the command and it went successful.
I'll do that again and update you with each step chronologically.
Thanks for your help in my desparate situation.

Hi Vikram.
This could be the blind leading the blind. But I will help out as much as I can.
I had the same problem with IC boot looping and especially with my nandroid backups. See if you can download a different rom and get that on your sd card and flash that. You can try BOA Butterfly v8.0 that always booted up for me when IC wouldn't. I also found a stock nandroid x920d backup that worked. At least I had my device working until I had the time to sort out IC on my device.
Now a couple of your queries.
My cid 11111111
HBOOT 1.57
The green progress bar never reaches the end it always stays at about 90% and reboot bootloader command should be like this
"adb reboot-bootloader" without the quotes
Sorry Vikram all over the place tonight I just finished work. Hope this helps. Plus the best information I can give you as well is search this site. everything you need is on here with a little searching. Only been doing this since July and I also tried to flash every rom out there only to discover that they all don't work. Got myself out of a few bootloops.
Try what I mentioned above and see how you go with that.

Thanks A TON Clarkie,
Your reply is very much appreciated. It seems like a ray of hope in a dark tunnel. Really grateful to you.
Now coming back to the matter at hand -
I had earlier tried to
1. Tried to flash 'NOS_m7_v3.0.0_dlxbu1' thru Recovery, was successful but when tried to boot, got stuck again in bootloop. Then again installed InserCoin.
Note - Maybe I did not perfom a wipe cache & definately did not flash the boot image thru fastboot after flashing the above rom.
Secondly I'm neither able to reboot from bootloader mode into recovery nor vice verca.
Thirdly, I cannot flash any zip from bootloader (but able to flash image files thru bootloader & install zip thru recovery); & no "fastboot reboot recovery" from bootloader mode and no "adb reboot bootloader"
from recovery (same with RUU "fastboot reboot bootloader", though in recovery & fastboot mode "adb/fastboot devices" show my device).
Fourthly, whenever I reboot into system/android I get Two bootscreens - 1. HTC Quietly Brilliant & the device gets disconnected and connected again and the second boot screen is HTC One.
Finally it stays at the HTC One screen for some time and suddenly there is some very slight variation in the brightness of the bootscreen, then the capacitive buttons (Back, Home & Recent app) lightens and it
reboots.
2. Tried to restore from TWRP Backup (when I was successfully running InserCoin for the first time) but again the bootloop. I also have one of NOS_m7_v3.0.0 (When I was S-On), that I've not tried yet as I'm afraid to get
back to S-On and bootloop at the same time..
3. Meanwhile, today a couple of hours ago, I came across this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2208833, and
performed an advanced wipe thru recovery (wiping everythingh except external sd card). Wiped Dalvik Cache. TWRP Backup. Rebooted. (For a lovely change) Got stuck at boot screen -HTC Quitely Briliant.
(maybe no OS installed).
4. Manually went into bootloader and then recovery. Installed InsertCoin again. At the end it said no SuperSU. Swiped to install it. Reboot. Got stuck at Bootloop.
Please try to Suggest:
A. When to flash boot.img - before or after installing the rom.
B. Does restoring S-On state backup will effect my S-Off condition.
Thanx In Advance.
1 + 1 = 11
Will Definately try BOA's Rom meanwhile.

HI Clarkie,
Tried the download links at BOA's ROM thread in the forum. Doesen't work.
Can you provide me a link.

Ok Vikram.
From what I have done and read I have always done a factory reset thru recovery before flashing any rom. Also try re flashing TWRP same version. I also got stuck on HTC ONE screen and turned the device of at power button and back on and it booted up fine. I would keep your device at s.off and i flashed the boot img after the rom because the device would not boot. Sorry for the short replies I am not that quick on the keyboard.
Here is the link for boa
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2656094
Spare link 4 is still up.
Just keep going on it. It is a process of thinking what worked before and why it not working now.
Keep me posted

No worries.
Remember if it gets stuck on htc screen power off with power button and restart. See how you go.

Hi Clarkie,
Tried the following:
Installed TWRP 2.6.3
Factory reset from recovery.
Installed BOA V8.0 thru recovery (Couldn't understand the language of aroma installer, but went ahead both the times).
Device Rebooted into bootloop again.
Powered off with only the power button, but then it again restarted into bootloop.
Flashed the boot.img thru fastboot. Reboot. Again bootloop.
Went to Recovery. Wiped everythingh except Micro SDcard
Installed the rom thru recovery install zip
Aroma Installer Finished Screen -> from recovery reboot options went into fastboot. Flashed the boot.img.
Rebooted to System - Back to square 1 in bootloop.
Also during the bootloop pressing down the power button does not power off & restarts the device. But the screen goes off for a few seconds and automatically boots intp the bootloop.
FYI -
I'm using a partitioned sd card. with 1. FAT32, 2. ext4 & 3. Linux SWAP. And thru recovery file manager it showed sd-ext & superuser folders in the root. I'll give it a try on an unpartitioned card.
had successfully, flashed recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.1-dlxub1 before flashing TWRP 2.6.3. But the CWMod recovery shows the following:
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
I tried adb reboot-bootloader but nothing happens.
Please try to suggest from here.
How can I check (from Bootloader/recovery) if my device is rooted/unrooted.

I mean when the splash screens stays on for more than a few minutes and not in boot loop hit the power button to off then back on. That has worked for me. I am not sure about your partitioned sd card. I just store things on mine.
Have a look at this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2283896
I had the same similar errors a while ago but I cant remember how I fixed it. Well I do. I fixed one error at a time and lots of searching.

I have done again the following steps as you said:
1. Started the Device.
2. First Splash screen came up - HTC quietly Briliant.
3. Second Splash Screen came up - HTC One.
4. Waited for one/two seconds and pressed continuosly on the power button.
5. Screen went totally black/maybe powered off.
6. Removed my finger from the Power button in order to press it back to power the device.
7. Before I can press it is back on the first splash screen pops up and the bootloop starts.
8. Even If I do not release the power button after the 5th step it automatically reboots & bootloop starts.
I did try this from the first bootscreen and also after complete power down from bootloader/recovery mode.
Meanwhile I'll search the link you gave.
I think that maybe I'm unrooted now because when i try thru recovery - advance - file manager, I cannot see any file in /system/bin/ (where there should have been a su file there.)
Thanks for your reply . will keep you posted.
Your replies mean a lot to me.

Hi Clarkie,
Re-read all of your posts and guidance.
Motivated by this and the links provided espaicially by you and reply from abhinav.tella I think I'm able to lock on the problem (perhaps).
Right now compiling it and will post with further details.
Kindly try to walk me thru it with your suggestions and guidance.
Thanx in advance.

Bits and Pieces
Hi Clarlie,
Thanks for your time & energy till date. You are kind enough to help out somebody very selflessly on your part. I'm motivated and have inculcated the same.
Anyway, I tried to understand the whole thing piece by piece. Also I have assimilated a few screenshots (I have many others if required.)
The following is only what I did & now think could be the cause.
First of all; I had successfully installed and was running InsertCoin a few days ago. See Step by Sep as per the numbered images attached with this and several within the next few following posts.
1
1. 1. Unlocked, rooted & running InserCoin, (but a Kernel & firmware based on 4.2 custom rom) --- 28-11-14 17-23hrs
1. 2. Achieved S-Off with XUNUS's (http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-butterfly/help/qa-insertcoin-3-0-6-dlxub1-android-4-4-t2950052)help & updated to TWRP 2.7 Kairi's along with reste-kernel-ub1 again Kairi's, 29-11-14 19-32.
1. 3. bootloader after s-off before revone, 29-11-14 23-09.

First of all; I had successfully installed and was running InsertCoin a few days ago. See Step by Sep as per the numbered images attached with this and several within the next few following posts.
1
1. 1. Unlocked, rooted & running InserCoin, (but a Kernel & firmware based on 4.2 custom rom) --- 28-11-14 17-23hrs
1. 2. Achieved S-Off with XUNUS's (http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-butterfly/help/qa-insertcoin-3-0-6-dlxub1-android-4-4-t2950052)help & updated to TWRP 2.7 Kairi's along with reste-kernel-ub1 again Kairi's, 29-11-14 19-32.
1. 3. bootloader after s-off before revone, 29-11-14 23-09.
1. 4. bootloader after removing TAMPERED thru revone, 30-11-14 00-02

As long as you have access to the boot loader and/or fastboot, you're not bricked. You can technically flash Universal firmware and a recovery to get around this but you might want to flash an RUU as it'll boot you into a ROM and give you a working setup to play with.
Since you're S-OFF download and flash an RUU via fastboot, upgrade or downgrade; it makes very little difference as it will put you in a position to flash a recovery and or universal firmware.
A note on RIL/Basebands, 3.32 and 3.33 have no adverse effects of using a non matching RIL baseband so long as your WiFi and mobile network works, you should be good.
P.S: remove your SN & IMEI from your post

I skimmed over your other thread, and you probably should have tried a kernel with BCM drivers if you haven't already.
Try with a different (and known to work) USB.
Also, make sure HTC Sync is closed and that you run the RUU as administrator.

You're S-OFF, however your bootloader is locked. Meaning commands are locked, S-OFF disables security allowing you to flash things without being signed by HTC.
Could you try this:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU (if you get SDcard errors, take out your SDCard and try again)
fastboot flash zip PG58IMG.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader

That's odd. Insert your SDCard after formatting it and placing the PG58IMG.zip on it. Then reboot into bootloader. See if it works, and let me know.
Sent from my HTC
Fail-PU errors generally correspond to firmware corruption
Which is pretty hard to solve
If Op can exactly tell flashing what caused this issue
Maybe we can have a chance
Btw can the phone go to recovery?
Also how did the patched hboot flash went?

[Q] bad CID - stuck in bootloader

In my quest to upgrade the hboot of my HTC One XL (evita), I accidentally used a tool intended for the the HTC One X (JFW Tool), and overwrote my CID to HTC__621. Now I'm stuck in the bootloader. Any help would be much appreciated (especially with the steps, I'm still a bit fuzzy on SuperCID, S-Off, bootloaders, roms and recovery). I think I was previously unlocked, running an unofficial CyanogenMod (because updates stopped coming around), and then I wanted to get on the OTA CM train, but needed to update hboot, which got me in my current situation:
Here's what my bootloader screen says:
Code:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** RELOCKED ***
EVITA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.09.0000
RADIO-0.17.32.09.12
OpenDSP-v28.1.0.32.0504
eMMC-boot
Apr 2 2012,21:08:24
FASTBOOT (or FASTBOOT USB)
<VOL UP> to previous item
<VOL DOWN> to next item
<POWER> to select item
BOOTLOADER
REBOOT
REBOOT BOOTLOADER
POWER DOWN
And here's what I've tried:
tried setting CID to 11111111
tried flashing recovery (my TWRP recovery is not present anymore)
tried flashing hboot
tried running X-Factor exploits
ran the all-in-one tool to try and exploit and unlock
I cannot seem to get anything to work. Flashing anything generates a remote signature fail id error.
Please help me to get my phone back up again!
Thanks,
Dave
You tried all those things without knowing what you're doing? You must love to live life dangerously!
Your bootloader is locked.
In bootloader, use volume down to scroll to reboot and hit power button to select it. Then read forums on how to unlock bootloader.

Perfect, that's what I needed (I didn't know bootloaders could become "relocked".
So, I'm now back to where I was before, with a phone I cannot update to the latest CM10, because my hboot is too old (=1.09)
I've tried to follow all the instructions on these forums for updating hboot to 2.14, without any success:
Using Hassoon2000's all-in-one kit for the HTC One X (evita) and also from the command line, I've tried to directly install:
hboot 2.14
OTA_EVITA_UL_JB_45_S_Cingular_US_3.18.502.6_0.24p.32.09.06_10.130.32.34_release_3061616bcty3drvawwo01k (which contains 2.14)
It fails on signature or hangs. I tried this with bootloader locked and unlocked (thanks to Venomtester, I can now do this without difficulty), and from the bootloader, fastboot and htc screens (gold htc logo).
So any hints on how to get hboot 2.14 installed on this device? Failing that, (or perhaps instead of) I could even go back to a factory ROM and settings, if I could get some hints on this.
Thanks again,
Dave
PS: I have a feeling it may be malfunctioning due to that CID change I did. I tried to change CID back using the regular tool, and then used the instructions for hex editing the CID, all without success (adb shell doesn't work)

What is your CID right now still the same?
use fastboot oem readcid to find out if you're not sure.

Okie dokie, so, your bootloader is unlocked at this point right?
If so, flash twrp 2.6: fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
Your CID shouldn't matter for right now, you should at least be able to flash a Rom at this point (obv. not cm10.1 3.4 kernel). Then we can work on SuperCID and S-OFF.

2.6 TWRP installed and working. Still running (extremely poorly, all kinds of flakiness: loses cellular data connection constantly) the 10.1 CM I was running before I embarked upon this upgrade.
What should I do next?
Cheers,

If I'm not wrong, you're gonna need to s-off to get to the newest cm nightlies because of RUU. So first you're gonna need SuperCID. Someone correct me of I'm wrong but I'm gonna say you need to
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
and then head over to the S-Off thread. I wouldn't do this just yet, because I'm not 100% sure, but if someone could confirm that'd be wonderful.

That command may or may not work.
The good news is, if it doesn't, since you have root and aren't on a 2.14 hboot it's still super easy
If that command doesn't work, boot to the rom you're using, make sure usb debugging is enabled. If you're using CyanogenMod, you'll also have to give ADB root access in developer settings.
Open command prompt in the folder you have ADB and do
adb shell
su
echo -ne "11111111" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=1 seek=20
then you should have superCID and should be able to S-OFF using the sticky in original android dev. section
when you type the su command, it may prompt you on your phone to allow su through adb so keep that in mind.

So I'm not sure what to do next. Flashing RUU doesn't seem to work. bootloader says I'm still S-OFF (whatever that means), now "RELOCKED", CID still 11111111, and hboot still 1.09.
Thanks again for taking me through this,
Dave
All you need to do is run the RUU as was intended. It's an exe file. Plug in your phone and start the program.
Use RUU not OTA, it is easier.
OTA would require stock recovery to complete and much more care with how stock things are.

Thanks everyone! I'm back on the CM10.1 bandwagon (with OTA updates!) and this HTC One X is working better than ever.
For other folks, here were my mistakes and stumbling blocks:
Don't use utilities intended for the HTC One X (Tegra 3) on the HTC One XL (evita). This is how I accidentally changed my CID. This might seem obvious, but when you're checking around these forums, you can frequently end up in the wrong forum.
ADB commands work when the phone is in its OS.
If the setcid command line doesn't work, use the line from exad.
Don't try and use the RUU flashing procedure (with the OTA .zip file) to flash the firmware, use the .exe file, and just execute it.
I did not (and still don't really) understand the difference and utility of RUUs, S-On/S-Off, unlocking the bootloader, hboot, ROMs, SuperCID, radios, ADB and fastboot commands.
Back to using my now very functional HTC One X (it was on the verge of a tragic high-velocity intentional disassembly).
Cheers,
Dave

Hm, really strange behavior, had couple of HTC phones but never seen something like this happening.
I did run RUU (first changed cid and relocked), everything went fine (no errors), but still cannot boot. My experience so far was that if RUU runs fine, you should boot without problem. Thinking more and more that there is some hardware problem, that is causing phone to bootloop.
If anyone has any idea, I would appreciate it a lot.
Thanks

According to your first post, everything seems to be okay. Your drivers are seeing the phone, and the phone is recognizing its hardware.
Which recoveries did you try to flash? (TWRP, CWM)
And which version?
Have you tried to reroot the device and flash a recovery again since running the RUU?
From my experience with running an RUU, you should be able to boot right away. What were the steps you took (in order) before you ran the RUU?
Sorry for all the questions, trying to establish a scenario.
[EDIT] Also, I see that you got the initial recovery from the CM11 ROM page. You didn't happen to flash a ROM that is meant for HBOOT 2.16 did you? I sure hope not. That could be a possibility as to why you can not boot anything.

Try getting into bootloader and pushing the kernel this way: fastboot flash boot boot.img
you don't have to be in recovery for this. The phone is s-on right?

No, it didn't work, this is something more serious
I've basically tried all I could think of, from doing RUUs (3 of them), flashing boot and recovery images, going 2.15, 2.16, locking/unlocking (obviously) and finally going S-On (ok, might be stupid, but I run out of ideas).
Bottom line is that all of the flashing worked for me, I get no error, but even simple fastboot boot recovery.img brings back the bootloop.
For example:
>fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-ville-selinux.img
sending 'recovery' (8668 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.108s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 2.059s]
finished. total time: 3.173s
>fastboot reboot
and if I hold Vol- and select recovery in bootloader I am back to bootloop.
Same thing if I try:
>fastboot boot openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-ville-selinux.img
I just do not understand why I am not getting any error message when flushing and is it possible that there is something wrong with the hardware that causes this behavior...

Sounds like you have a soft brick on your hands.
Can you boot the device at all, stock or custom ROM?
Maybe reverting to COMPLETE STOCK and starting over fresh will help?
What was the last thing you did right before you got stuck?

No, I cannot boot, after RUU that runs fine, phone still bootloops and only thing I can do is go into bootloader.
When you say COMPLETE STOCK, you mean RUU, right?
I was talking on the phone and phone restarted. After that I was able to boot after many tries, after restart, could not boot and than tried RUU etc...

And here we are. Do you happen to have the old All In One Kit that became obsolete, by hasoon2000? It has the function to flash your recovery back to stock. I found two mirrors on the internet, but because of the rules, I can't post them. But they are accessible through the internets if you use the right keywords.

Bootloop is normal for ROM geeks.
In your case, it seems your phone has issue with version of Recovery. I had this issue too and found correct Recovery @ http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/ville ....

Have you tried this? :
--> flash STOCK recovery via fastboot or toolkit
--> Boot to bootloader --> Factory Reset(Userdata) / Clear Stotage (SD-card) (these commands only work with STOCK recovery)
Before I got the same problem, so in Bootloader I did Factory Reset and then flash the Recovery TWRP 2.6.3.0. Now it works

Actually this device was initially my first x920d HTC_038.
On this intial device I was S-on, unlocked, maybe rooted or rooted then unrooted ( bootloader displayed *** TAMPERED *** ***UNLOCKED*** ,S-On, Hboot 1.41.00 - if required i can post the image) & definitely had a custom rom installed on it & TWRP 2.5 (don't remember which custom rom {somewhere around Android JB initial versions & subsequently upgraded to JB 4.2, but was not able to update to 4.3});
Last week I came across InsertCoin Kitkat Roms and tried to upgrade by flashing TWRP 2.8 & then flashing the zip through recovery TWRP 2.8 and got stuck at boot screen. You were kind enough to help me out - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56987280&postcount=3
Then I flashed Kairi's Twrp and flashed Insert Coin 3.0.6. Then rooted by flashing 'UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip'. My device info after this was as - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57107853&postcount=5
Then I tried to s-off through rumrunner 0.5.xx following this guide - http://rumrunner.us/instructions/ but it never finished - (attached image). Then I relocked the bootloader by fastboot oem lock command in fastboot mode. It did relock my bootloader, then i retried rumrunner through fastboot, but it came up with this - 'attached image 1'. Nnow I'm stuck with relocked bootloader, rooted device running insert coin 3.0.6, cannot boot into recovery, cannot flash PL99IMG.img/TWRP 2.7 Kairi (attached images). But my fastboot/adb is fully up and the IC rom is running good.
Kindly try to help me if you get some time.
Also I want to contribute (though am not able to contribute financially at the moment) to our forum , but sure can commit/devote minimum 6 to 10 hours a week for any job the forum/members' want or can be understudee to any member. Just bear in mind that I'm a noobie
I hope+wish to contribute+learn simultaneously to+from our forum.
Thanks.

I'm not really a pro on this stuff, just sharing my experience on the Butterfly. Since your current situation is a Relocked bootloader and unfortunately its still S-ON. The only thing you could do was to unlocked your bootloader again via every possible ways. I did see you tried to unlock with the 1st unlock_code.bin. But it gave you error. How about getting a new Unlock_code from HTC? Hopefully it will work this round. Without a unlocked bootloader there's pretty much nothing else you could do.( Caution: unlocking your bootloader again will wipe your data. Recommended to backup your stuffs if you need them)
If you are able to unlock your bootloader, things to do and try out.
1st: Flash Kairi's 270X twrp
2nd: Flash Kairi's reset kernel (Because its a unsecured stock kernel)
3rd: Turn on usb debug, HTC fast boot turn off
4th: Try rumrunner again.
The real developers for x920d left here in xda would be kairi_zeroblade and xXminiWHOOPERxX. Its only them that can make a change to the X920D xda community.

Voila
I have just unlocked again through flashing unlock token.
Actually if you see in the image in my previous post I had erronouslt typed "fastboot unlocktocken Unlock_code.bin". It should had been "fastboot unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin".
The device is setting up for the first time as I type.
Thanks XUNUS.
Now should I follow your the steps you mentioned or first of all change my CID HTC_038 to CID: 11111111 by "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" and then continue to your steps.
Also can you provide me the link to kairi's reset kernel?
I cannot do a "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" as I'm S-On.
meanwhile I've successfully flashed Kairi's TWRP and now am searching for his Reset Kernel.

Hi Xunus,
I was running InsertCoin 3.0.6 on my x920d HTC_038, unloocked (thru HTCDev), S-Off (thru rumrunner) and rooted by flashing 'UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02' from recovery after flashing the ROM a couple of days earlier.
I had also flashed Kairi's firmware-kk (which is for HTC_061) as I had Super CID 11111111.
There was some problem with the htc backup/restore function, so I reflashed the rom acouple of times thru recovery(TWRP 2.7 by Kairi).
I happened to flash '[ROM] FireKatN4 Deodex V5 TW 4.4.4' from http://forum.xda-developers.com/note...emely-t2916463. Which did not flashed properly; so I re-flashed IC3.0.6 thru recovery and it showed successful at the end.
Now when I tried to reboot it got stuck in bootloop.
Since yesterday I have been trying various steps:
Unlocked the bootloader thru HTCDev once again.
Flashing the firmware-kk thru oemRUU after changing the CID to 11111111 in the adroid-info file of this zip. (it gave Remote90 error and after repeating fastboot flash zip firmware-kk.zip it flashed. Although in between it said "signature checking, verified fail - Bypassing and after that successful at the end. However on my device the green bar moved only to 90% and remained there.)
Rebooted into bootloader, tried flashing the same firmware with Error :
"C:\Fastboot>fastboot flash zip firmware-kk.zip
target reported max download size of 1514139648 bytes
sending 'zip' (19401 KB)...

No ! i dont think so.. I earlier talk with official mentor of IC ROMS. and he told me that development for x920d has been stopped because they dont have a Butterfly now.
lollipop or at least kk 4.4.4 update for htc butterfly
i am running IC 3.0.6 its running ok, but i have some GPU lag in some games that i didnt have issues with when i was running htc stock 4.3 it not a deal breaker everything else works better, but i was hoping IC update this ROM to a newer version like on HTC DNA, at least KK 4.4.4
thanks
thanks for ur sharing.

Pattern lock (factory defaults / official 3.34.401.1 flash)

Hi all,
Maybe someone could push me in the right direction here. I unlocked my HTC U11 and went searching for a good CFW with MHL support. Sadly many don't have decent MHL support, thanks Google! I went into recovery steps, locked the bootloader and flashed official 3.34.401.1 rom. That went fine, but now the phone is stuck at the pattern screen.
Phone works fine, but the pattern is not set by me, almost as if the stock firmware has some secret pattern. It won't ask me to setup my google account and factory defaults doesn't fix the issue.
Current rom file: 2PZCIMG_OCEAN_UHL_P90_SENSE10GP_MR_HTC_Europe_3.34.401.1_Radio_8998-200321-1905141529_release_signed.zip

To the one/those answering:
How can one have 0 slots?
That's odd, isn't it? I mean there are a/b partitioned devices and 'a' partioned devices out there.
So the slot-count is either 2 (a/b) or 1 (a).
To @ristodesign: Before flashing you had no pattern? And you did a factory data reset with your recovery?
Hi, yes. I tested LineageOS and Goole PixelExperience, but should have known there was no MHL support. Then I tried Viper and LeeDroid, but those didn't enable Wifi somehow.
Then decided to get back to the stock ROM provided by Ziand: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962575313
Locked the bootloader and renamed the rom file to 2PZCIMG.zip so I could restore from booting in download. File was accepted and everything went back to normal. Got a welcome screen, was forced to enable wifi, then suddenly some pattern lock, which does not give any option to escape. Perviously used patterns are certainly not working.
Factory reset does not clear the pattern lock. Which makes me quite unique I guess. ;-)

Hi, yes. I tested LineageOS and Goole PixelExperience, but should have known there was no MHL support. Then I tried Viper and LeeDroid, but those didn't enable Wifi somehow.
Then decided to get back to the stock ROM provided by Ziand: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962575313

Maybe you can try to boot twrp and see if it asks to decrypt?
The thing is: Passwords, pins, patterns etc. should be stored in the userdata partition. If you wipe this partition, the pattern should be gone.
However, if you manage to boot twrp and to have the userdata partition decrypted (go to /data and see if those entries aren't "randomized" letters), we should be able to delete this manually.
Else I'd like to know whether that pattern has been coded into the update zip you applied... Don't know how to accomplish that, however. But I'll see if I figure out something for the case twrp doesn't work.
You could also try another file like this one from here: https://htcstockrom.com/htc-u11
Will try to get trwp back on the device. It was removed and USB debugging probably disabled.
I did try the rom at https://htcstockrom.com/htc-u11 , after all those Visual C++ x86/x64 fixes it finally worked to start, but at the end it wouldn't accept to downgrade 3.34.401.1 to 2.42.617.7.

I see.
You only need to boot twrp temporarily, no need to flash it. Just do:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
EDIT: What if you reflash LineageOS and then the older firmware mentioned above?
LineageOS should allow downgrades.
Good idea, i tried with this result:
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [2.4sec]
booting...
(Then it stops)
Phone screen shows:
Flash image succes
Start downloading (1/1)
It stops there.

Oh, well...
That's strange... Then go for the method you already know.
What did you do earlier to flash twrp? Same command but "flash boot"?
EDIT:
I think you flashed it using
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
right?
If so, maybe you can boot it somehow similar like this:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery twrp.img
.
Earlier I had to unlock the phone with the HTC Dev website. I created an Unlock_code.bin file. But if I try to flash now it will not accept.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
sending 'unlocktoken' (0 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.002s]
writing 'unlocktoken'...
(bootloader) flash unlocktoken
(bootloader) [KillSwitch] : /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/frp
(bootloader) [KillSwitch] Last Byte is 0X00, disable unlock
(bootloader) [KillSwitch] oem unlock Turn Off!
So USB debugging and the OEM lock seems to have set to default by flashing the stock rom.

If you do
Code:
fastboot getvar all
do you get something like this?:
(bootloader) unlocked:yes

Nope, it does not. When I try to flash it states that the bootloader is locked. The phone screen shows:
HTC download mode
*** RELOCKED ***
*** PRODUCTION ***
htc_ocnuhl PVT S-ON
yada yada yada... ;-)

Well, maybe you should research how to unlock an relocked bootloader.
I heard that some bootloader won't unlock again after relocking, which is why I never relocked my devices bootloader...
Hehe, yes it might be not too smart but it was the fastest solution as I could not find a working MHL CFW. I'll give my kids some money if they can find the pattern lol.
