[Q] Phone needs an ENG Bootloader

Hi, my phone goes in a bootloop. This happened after running a RUU to go back to stock. Now i can't go into recovery and when trying to flash a recovery it says I need a ENG Bootloader. I've tried flashing a bootloader but it keeps on failing with a signature error

This is what happens when I try to flash bootloader
sending 'hboot' (1024 KB)...

Can anyone help with this please

You can't flash ENG bootloader without getting S-OFF first.
You can't get S-OFF without a properly working phone.
So flash the RUU and make it right.

[Q] Pyramid stuck in fastboot-loop

Hi there.
I've got an unbranded htc sensation device (manufactured for india). lat week i updated to cm9, and accidentally got a 1.29 hboot. after that I tried to flash the stock ICS for my pyramid. so, the situation is:
cid HTC__038
hboot version 1.29.0000
radio 11.24A.3504.31_m
openadsp v05.6.0.2226.00.0418
pyramid pvt ship s-on locked.
working adb, fastboot connection
i've got no working rom on the device, stuck in fastboot-loop.
there is no possibility to use revolutionary s-off because of hboot version 1.29, and because the non-working system (cannot put in debug mode)
i tried to flash the lastest 3.33 firmware, bit it still uses a previous version of hboot. (something messed up with signature check fail)
i cannot flash a non-official rom befause s-on.
do i have any possible steps to make my phone working with ics+sense?
all the answers will be "thanked" & btw sorry for my bad english

I actually did this, with the same results. Is it a possible way if modify the partitions by a partitioning software running on pc, and manually edit the partitions' files, changing them to the correct ones, came from the official rom.zip file? I think (dont hit me if i was wrong), this way I can bypass all the s-on and locked bootloader stuff, maybe I can downgrade from hboot 1.29 without wire tricks, and install the stock ICS for pyramid.
what about the PG58IMG stuff? I can modify the removable sd card's files, so i can insert PG58IMG things to root, the phone is actually reads it. what if I somehow inject the Unlock_code.bin into some kind of PG58IMG, and apply this way the unlocking?
could be anything of these upper is working?

Nope can't/won't work
We could try one thing... Try changing cid
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
Then ignore errors and reboot
fastboot reboot-bootloader
And check cid again
fastboot getvar cid
If it changed then you can very well flash European unbranded ruu and then boot to a working rom
If it not worked.. Then send a PM to FOOTBALL and ask for Indian ruu.. He might charge some minimal amount based on the scarcity of the ruu.. But if you got proper Indian ruu then you will come out of the boot loop fine

You have working adb when in boot loop?
Then you can try my temp-root and then jb SOFF process.. Link in my signature
Have slim chances of working.. But worth a try

cid change is done, now it's HTC_001.
i tried to flash RUU-Pyramid-ICS-hTC-Europe-3.33.401.53-Radio-11.76A.3504.00U-11.24A.3504.31-M-release-280871-signed's rom.zip from the temp, renamed to PG58IMG, copied to sdcard's root.
phone said: "lower hboot version"
is there any stock htc ROM with hboot 1.29?
if no, is it a possible way to change the zip to contain a 1.29 hboot version?
edit: i've got no bootloop, but at power-on I'm suddenly passed to fastboot screen without any boot process
but fastboot usb connection is always working, fastboot devices responses are always positive.

Awesome... That will solve our issue now
Do this copy the New PG58IMG zip file to your fastboot folder
And try these commands one by one
fastboot erase cache (if failed ignore it)
fastboot oem rebootRUU (black screen with silver HTC)
fastboot flash zip PG58IMG.zip (if failed stop there and don't do any thing else and simply paste back the output here)
fastboot reboot
Done
Edit: if the fail at third step is.. Something like.."Hboot pre update... Please flush the rom immediately again"] then repeat the third step again. (i.e this one fastboot flash zip PG58IMG.zip)

hmm this has some weird combination (modelid indicates that the phone is normal sensation ..but firmware version says that the phone is xe!!!) ..but lets see
download the XE version of the same RUU you've downloaded earlier (will have LE in its Name) and get the rom.zip and flash the rom.zip manually using the fastboot commands ive given you earlier

To change MID you need S-OFF. The RUU checks MID so if the 3.33.401.153 RUU fails try the 3.33.401.53 one

Ahh as suspected
What happened is you have somehow flashed sensation xe hboot and rest of them have normal sensation counterparts...
I need you to do something now... Download the universal 3.33 firmware from kohr-ah firmware thread in sensation development section..
Then extract the zip
Open android-info.txt file and replace version-main with 3.33.401.53
And save it
Also you have the rom.zip of the normal sensation 3.33.401.53 right.. Get the hboot.nb0 (the name will be big but the extension remains same) and replace the hboot.nb0 present in the firmware zip with this one..
Then remake the firmware.. PG58IMG.zip
Then try to flash this... Obviously it will fail.. But if that replaces the hboot you are having then all is well
So after the above exercise.. You need to try flashing normal sensation rom.zip again
Hopefully it works

Help, stuck in bootloader and hboot screens

I got home from work plugged my phone in and went to sleep. When I woke up the phone was on the bootloader screen. It wont do anything but switch screens from bootloader to hboot. I have trying installing the stock rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...zip-ruu-m8vzw-5-0-1-s-off-onlynewest-t3047103 it fails to load from an micro sdcard.
This is a Verizon One M8 phone that has been rooted since release. I have been running Venom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715225 4.3.0 for verizon users.

What ROM did you have installed when this happened?

Venom 4.3 for Verizon

SD card method should work always as long as you are using fat32 and have the file name exact. If it's not working too aren't doing one of the two above correct.

Okay thanks. My phone doesnt have a sd card slot.
What tool do I have to use first? I have pretty much no idea
Do I need Linux for that?

If you want to restore to stock just use RUU. its easier.
NOTE-Bootloader must be locked with stock restore

ok you need to start from beggining again.
What recovery you have installed?
what ROM you had before this problem?
forget what fastboot tells you and look at bootloader yourself and see if says lockeded or Reloocked tempered.
are you using original HTC usb cable?

or find and install TWRP and use a recovery TWRP rom to restore phone.

Then you need to flash a boot.img and a recovery.img.
Make sure you have the proper ones for your firmware

I cant boot into bootloader because "adb devices" doesnt find my phone. Or am I doing something wrong? Maybe you have time for a short teamviewer session to have a look yourself?

I didn't say boot phone.
I said install boot.img and recovery.
That's all done is fastboot
Alternatively you can send me the phone for repair.
