[Solved] Damaged bootloader. please help!

Try to unlock. Lots of things went wrong.
First the usb driver installed via installation of HTC Sync.
Open revolutionary and work on it, it stopped at "waiting for fastload".
So that I flushed a file - PG58IMG.zip, according to the noobproof post "method 2" here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1232107
It went wrong because I did not delete the file before rebooting. message: file error CRC.
While I use revolutionary to get into the bootloader again, I see this:
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
Hboot - 1.17.0011
RADIO-10.11.9007.27_M3
eMMC-boot
Jun 2 2011,22:31:39
Then I can not use any key combination to enter bootloader.
If I use the revolutionary to get the the bootloader screen, it does not respond to the vol. keys and power key. Have to pull off the battery.
The phone can still boot normally.
Whay should I do to get the clockwork recovery flushed in?
Appreciated!

First thing first, run RUU, then try revolutionary again, but READ THEIR HOW TO's!!!!! Again, read their HOW TO's!!!!!
If you have no RUU available you'll have to mess about with ADB, which is not that easy for a newbee.
Google on how to install ADB and stuff, once it's running and working properly, you have to type
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
But if your buttons still don't work, you won't be able to get into recovery.
Anyway, there are a lot of things you can do, i can sit here all night trying to write up different scenarios, but best thing for you to do is to start from scratch (RUU->REVO etc) AND READ HOW TO and don't rush when you do it.
P.S. Have you tried booting into bootloader by holding -vol button while pressing power button (after battery pull, as if you just shut it down, you might still have fast boot enabled)? Should really start from that.

Already tried many times. Either vol-down + power, or vol-up + power, the phone will start to sense. I can get into bootloader screen via revolutionary, but it does respond to menu change by holding the vol-up, or down and run by power button.
Unlocking the first time. Also new to android. used to be stick with win for years. Thanks Tinky1! I will try revolutionary again. Please stay with me.

New developemnt.
Try the revolutionary again. This time I put the cwm rocovery tools 5010 as a zip on the card beforehand. This time the Rev screen still shows "Communication with the phone interrupted unexpectedlly ......". But on the phone it now shows "Hboot - 1.17.1111". Then I unplug the USB, boot in rocovery. This time it responsed. Wait untill it says update completed, then restart phone into sense home screen.
I guess this time it is alright.

Yes. Now I can goto blue CWM recovery menu. The next figure out which rom to flush my phone. Thanks, Tinky1!

[Q] Unable to boot into recovery

Hi all,
So I recently got a Sensation 4G that is rooted with CM 10.1 on it, but it seems to be lacking a recovery image. Whenever I try to boot into recovery using Goo or QuickBoot, it just reboots the phone. I have tried installing recoveries through Goo and 4ext recovery console but that hasn't helped.
When I boot into the bootloader it says:
Firmware 3.33
Pyramid PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT - 1.27.1100
RADIO - 11.29A.3504.18_M
There is no reboot to recovery option in the bootloader. Can anyone fill me in about what I am missing here?
Thanks!

Hi,
greetings,
in the bootloader below the things you said their must options like
fastboot
recovery ......etc etc
select recovery their by pressing volume down button and power button to enter the recovery if this does not work
flash recovery vai abd and chech again,
if you cannot see still i suggest you should flash juopunutbear hboot that might solve your prob and then flash recovery again

If you manually boot into bootloader (phone off holding power and vol down) it will be the second option under fastboot.
For me whenever I use something to boot into bootloader it boots into fastboot mode which doesn't have an option for recovery.

This part:

fastboot flash endeavoru_recovery_signed.img
This part worries me, that's not for your phone, that's for the international One X.
Exactly which at&t ROM did you try to flash beforehand?
Have you tried just running an RUU? That'll take it back to stock.

I don't know whats the right one for my USA AT&T htc one STOCK RUU I cant never find it and if I do I don't know how to install it using fastboot and plus the problem of it not passing the boot screen

Here is the att 3.18 RUU. All you need to do is connect your phone in fastboot mode and run the RUU, it's an exe file. Make sure HTC Sync is uninstalled (leave the drivers installed), make sure no other programs are running, and make sure screen saver/hibernation are turned off.

Can't access recovery

A friend has given me his Desire S to fix what I originally thought was just a stuck power button that prevented it from starting up. But the button is now fixes and I've been trying the last few days to get it to start up.
What I have tried so far is to enter Recovery mode, but upon choosing it, the phone would just go to the HTC logo screen, fibrate once and then fibrate agian after a second or two for a few times and the screen would go blank. The same happens with normal bootup. It also seems that the phone is still running with the blank screen because I have to pull the battery to startup again.
I then tried to use the latest RUU (Android 4.0) from HTC but the phone is not recognized by the computer (I think it is because it didn't startup enough to be able to present itself to the computer). So I unlocked it and used fastboot (from Ubuntu as OS) to flash the recovery (recovery_signed.img) and boot (boot_signed.img) from the RUU. With this recovery and normal startup would remain at the HTC screen and wouldn't go blank as before - still fibrates a few times.
I also tried to rename the rom.zip to PG88IMG.zip and putting it on a SD and the bootloader does detect it, but presents the normal boot screen afterwards (I think it complains about it being incorrect - the display is too quick for me to see the error).
Now I also have a Desire S and made a backup of it before I installed a custom ROM. So I also tried the recovery.img that I have from this backup, but then recovery is stuck on the blank screen again.
Is there anything that I did wrong, missed or may not have tried yet? And how can I go about to fix it?
PHONE DETAILS (from bootloader screen)
*** UNLOCKED ***
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.00.0002
RADIO-3822.10.08.04_M
eMMC-boot

The PG88IMG wont work coz ur s-on. Ul need to extract the zip file and put the recovery.img in ur fastboot folder and then flash it from fastboot, volume down + power then select select fastboot then plug ur phone into pc and open a fastboot command window and type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Also a ruu u run from fastboot and u need to relock ur bootloader.
(i dunno how all this is done using ubuntu but thats how on windows so im sure ul know or figure it out)

Ok, didn't know that I needed S-OFF for PG88IMG - thanks for pointing that out . I did flash the recovery (paragraph 3), it is just named `recovery_signed.img` and not 'recovery.img` - I assume that there isn't a difference between the two?
Do I open the RUU while in fastboot on the phone (after relocking) or do I run it from a fastboot command?
(On Ubuntu fastboot is installed as a program so I can call it after I CD to the extracted rom folder and I assume it is working since I didn't get any errors)

Well it depends, could be 4ext recovery, CWM, or TWRP. But as far as the name, could be called peterpan.img and it wouldnt matter haha

Yh boot ur phone into fastboot, connect it to pc, relock bootloader and then run ruu. The ruu should be exe file so just double click it to run.

Ok, relocked it and went into fastboot mode and then opened the RUU, but was not recognized. Then followed this (droid-now.com/2013/10/fix-working-fastboot-drivers-windows-8-1-x64/) since I used Win 8.1 for the RUU and it flashed successfully.
But it is still stuck on the HTC screen - gave it 30 minutes for the first boot after flash. Recovery is also still stuck, so I reflashed and same issue.
Radio is now 3831.19.00.110

Attemting to get my HTC One M8 out of boot loop... help?

Okay, I'm going to begin by saying I'm not particularly well versed in this sort of thing.
Sunday night, my phone ran out of juice and I went to plug it up. Rather than function as normally, the screen stayed off for several seconds while the LED remained orange, as if it was charging. A few moments later, the phone would only go to the bootloader screen, and was stuck in a boot loop.
Now, the phone is still in a boot loop, but I'm trying to boot it from the SD card in order to fix it.
The phone software is official, I've never Rooted it or made any modification to the OS, and the phone status on the bootscreen is as follows:
*** Software Status: Official ***
** LOCKED **
M8_WLV PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-3.19.0.0000
RADIO-INVALID_VER_INFO
OpenDSP-INVALID_VER_INFO
OS-4.17.605.9
eMMC-boot 2048MB
I"m not quite sure what these stats mean, but any help towards me fixing my phone would be greatly appreciated!

Try putting RUU on an SD-Card or through ADB and see if it works.

Edit: I need to read, ugh.
Apparently having it as S-ON is a bad thing?

S-ON is fine if you don't know or need S-OFF
The thread explains exactly how to flash the RUU
"Option 2
Copy 0P6BIMG.zip to root of a physical SD formatted to fat32. No exfat! No internal storage! Must be external SD formated to fat32!
Reboot phone to bootloader and follow prompts once RUU is detected by phone.
Option 3
Fastboot RUU mode . This method assumes you have a working ADB/Fastboot directory on your PC. Download RUUish file and place in your working fastboot/adb directory. Boot your phone to fastboot mode and connect to PC. Issue the following commands.
fastboot oem rebootRUU
###while in this mode your phone will display an HTC logo on the screen
fastboot flash zip 0P6BIMG.zip
##while in this mode you will see an HTC logo on the screen and a green status bar across the bottom of the screen. When command output ##completes it may say reboot required to flush etc... if that's the case issue a "fastboot reboot-bootloader" command and restart option 1 again.
example
## assuming flash completes and no further flushing/reboots are requested from the cmd output you can now reboot IF you simply wish to reboot the system you can issue "fastboot reboot" which will reboot system.
## expect a good 5 minute plus first boot!"
To answer your PM, use this one:

Rename
DOTTAT_VZWM8_S_ON_5.0.1_RUU.zip
To
0P6BIMG.zip

Okay, I'll attempt this tomorrow b/c I'm in an area with REALLY bad Wi-Fi right now, can I update you in the morning?
