[Q] Please explain this to a stupid person that is confused by all this.

The phonecompany 3 updated my phone, when it went for repairs, so now it has that horrible HTC Sense on it. It asked them to remove it, but they refuse, and actually IN the shop tell me to hack it.
Now my question comes, because no-one seems to know anything about this.
I have tried searching the internet, and this forum, but information on how to do it, seems to be different from the people you ask.
I have a 3 mobile HTC Magic 32A branded HTC.
Radio 6.35.x
CPLD-12
HBOOT 1.76.0009
What is required? I have read something that I need to replace the "SPL". Is that the HBOOT, or what? I have found some guides that refer to me as to going into my command prompt and somehow comunicating with my phone... how on earth is that possible?
This is where I am right now, and the more I search and read, the more confused I get, so I hope someone can clarify the process of rooting a magic. i have rooted my old Desire before (Not mine anymore), with a so-called "risk-free" guide. Easy as pi, once you read 5 lines, and downloaded 2 files.
Please clarify this for me, before I loose my hair over this.
EDIT: I have the phone rooted, with an app called "Universal AndRoot". It seems to have root, but no matter what bootloader I try clockworkmod or RA, the first crashes, and reboots the phone, the lather freezes within seconds... is it proper rooted, or just "half"?
What to do?

those are not bootloaders... those are recovery images.
You have a 32A, which means that you need an EBI1 recovery image. You are probably installing EBI0 recoveries, which won't work.

Thank you for clarifying.
So clockworkmod are "EBI0" recoveries.
What are "EBI1" recoveries then?

Use the recovery from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=816345
PS: Your phone is running what is called "New radio"/NR/6.35. If you want to run stock Cyanogenmod or anything like that you need to downgrade your radio and SPL. A good FroYo ROM for 6.35 is FroyoRider.

There are instructions on amonra thread to install recovery different ways. Prob through terminal for u would be easy

amonra? I am not sure what that means, but I will search the internet for how to install a recovery image on ones phone (32A HTC Magic)

I type this in a terminal "flash_image recovery /sdcard/1.7.0.1.img" without quotes, yes I renamed it.
It says: erroroutput[usage: flash_image partition file.img
What am I doing wrong now?

Nobody knows?

Do u have ask set up and the ability to fastboot flash recovery? I would do that

If I have what?

Sorry. Gotta love auto spell. I typed sdk. U have to have android sdk to set up adb to control your phone through your computer. Then u can use fastboot flash. First u need an Eng spl with the right radio to use it.

Thanks for clarifying however.

S-OFF and no root, what do?

Here's the story. Got my original G2, played with it, rooted, s-off, the works. Needed to send it in for a warranty exchange so I unroot, s-on, etc etc, and put gingerbread on it. So I had the pc10img file on my sdcard.
Fast forward, I got my replacement G2, it had Froyo, had it rooted, s-off, the works before the battery was even finished charged (I waited for it to finish before I rebooted of course!) and I loaded up the official MIUI. usb tethering wasn't working so I figured I would download and flash a pershoot kernel! That "bricked" it. Wouldn't boot at all! So I booted it in to recovery (vol down + pwr) forgetting that the official gingerbread pc10img was on the sdcard. I was out and about so I just needed my phone back ASAP, so I went ahead and flashed it. So now I have stock gingerbread, with S-OFF and no way to get root. Is there another pc10img I can flash that is pre-rooted, or am I SOL til someone figures out how to root the latest update?
I'm gonna try gingerbreak after posting since I DO have s-off still...

To my knowledge there is still no temporary exploit for gingerbread that you would need to gain permanent root, sorry. It looks like you might be sol, but since you do have s-off try some of the other exploits like psneuter or gfree and post back. I would be very intrested if the hboot was somehow responsible for keeping the gingerbread g2's from getting root

I'm unsure if HTCs .zip includes a HBOOT update or not...but can you enter HBOOT (power+vol down) and check if it says SHIP S-OFF or ENG S-OFF?

I think that, since you're S-OFF, you'll be able to apply any PC10IMG.zip since it won't check signatures/versions - can someone correct me on this if I'm wrong?

It says SHIP S-OFF. And I was also thinking that since it is S-OFF that I could flash a PC10IMG that was already rooted, but seems almost all roms these days are only clockwork flashable.

SUCCESS!
Back to semi-square one anyway.
I was able to successfully flash the shipped rom as a PC10IMG which I got here (http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Vision) and I'm going to say that this is most likely because I am radio s-off.

It is because u were s-off. That was my configuration also so if I flash that official gb PC10IMG I'm still s-off but unrooted. To reroot I simply flash the 1.19 PC10IMG, let it get the 1.22 OTA if I feel like it then psneuter/gfree it all over again.
PS - to anyone else... don't even bother with gingerbreak for that official gb
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

I would put anything with root on it, just to get cwm. Than do as you normally would. As you may know, things are far easier through recovery.
::edit:: you should be able to find a custom built pc10img zip thingy, somewhere on these forums or from someone.
I'm sure you can easily make your own, and it should work.
Goodluck.

Question about flashing radios

hey everyone, ive been trying to find a thread that had some more in depth instructions on flashing a radio onto my glacier. right now im running royal ginger (latest version) and ive noticed my wifi doesnt seem to have as strong a signal but my netword is a little better, the only thing i havent really messed with is flashing a new radio. the instructions given in the resource bible under android development doesnt make much sense to me. can someone please give me some different instructions or try to explain them differently so that I dont brick my phone, i would be totally f'd if that happened, as im sure most everyone else would be.
can i just flash it like im flashing a new rom? or do i need to be using this adb thing? im not familiar with adb since i only used to one time to first root my phone, seems like so long ago.
any help or direction would be much appreciated, thanks in advance!

I'm pretty sure you flash it just like you would a rom since its a zip. I never done it myself because never had to, but google is your friend.

Everything you need to know about flashing radios with the download links to the 4 radios that work for the MT4G http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1059347
MAKE SURE YOU CHECK THE MD5 to make sure you had a good download or else you will end up with a brick if you flash a bad file. Good luck and if you don't know how to check the md5 just ask Good luck

Havent tried flashing through recovery but from whats been said you need engineering hboot to have radio s-off. And then afterwards you can flash from hboot by having the d/led zip in root dir of sd card... it should automatically detect it (from file name) and ask if you want to flash it

ok i figured it out, thanks.

[Q] HTC WildFire A3335 Qustion

I have a basic question,
I'm only asking because there's far too much
information available,
on here
and its not easy to find what best fits my
needs.
I have an unlocked A3335 wildfire ( Telstra NextG network 3g version), I'm using it on optus,
my boyfriend was useing it he dowloaded a
font change app for the phone,
but when he did it my phone went in to
bootloop mode.and keep't bootlooping again
and again
all i get is the start up screen,
with yes you guessed it
(Telstra NextG network 3g crap)
All I want to do is try and get my phone from
this bootloop mode and try and recover...
my phone back to how it was.
Its hard to explain,
ok when i go in to the boot screen
i have this on my phone
BUZZ PVT SHIP S- Off
HBOOT-1.01.0002
MICROP-0622
TOUCH PANEL-ATMEL224_16ab
RADIO-3.35.20.10
DEC 27 2010,
17:49:10
and it reads the sd card,
it said the Boot Image. is missing
dont know why a app would take this out
but this is what happen
So Now when i did the fastboot on my phone
it done nothing,
then did the clear storge.
then i did the recovery
it rebooted to a black screen with A
triangle shape with one of these things
! in the middle of it,
but still stuck
I can follow the regular guides for rooting,
can any one help me to get my phone back to
how it was please
And I really don't care about this part much,
but would be nice to have it off the phone
and remove all the telstra junk and restore
the phone back to how HTC would ship it,
(all the junk apps they include could easily be optionally installed from marketplace if you want their crap...)
(obviously I'm in Australia also)
There are so many ROMS and options available,
including the ones from shipped roms
(it wont let me post the link because I'm new).
I just want my phone back to how i got it,
can any one help me please....
please send me a private messages,
with a step by step guide to do so thanks..

Since you are s-off u can use fastboot flash from windows to flash a clockwork mod recovery. After you do that, every thing will be simple. Just download a rom in zip format,put it to sd go to recovery( just do what you have done to see the triangle in blackscreen. Note that if u flash cwm you will no longer see that triangle). Then use your volume down button to reach install zip from SD card. Hit it with joystick press. Choose zip. Install it. Just do a data- factory resetting before you install zip.
I prefer cyanogen mod 7. U may use latest stable or nightly build. Feel free to post any doubt you have. We are happy to help you.

nope that gold card image will send to ur email..and u need to copy that gold card image to ur sd card...

Well if the hboot is 1.01.0002 with S-OFF then it must be done using xtc clip. So fastboot flashing shouldn't be working. And u don't need a gold card for S-OFF wildfire .
I would just suggest to flash a stock froyo WWE RUU which also removes the carrier bloatware. If ruu proccess gives errors u can copy the romzip from that ruu and use it with pc49img process from hboot menu. And ofcourse fat32 memory card is must for pc49img process

Hey can you explain what happened now? You said that yours is working now before 2 days. ( in second last post). So what happened now? What have you tried with your phone?
And...
So the gold card question, let me explain.
Gold card is just a patch tool, with the help of which you can unlock HTC boot loader , or in detail, you can unlock HTC 's boot loader protection(that's what we call as s-off) , which is commenly locked( that's we call as s-on) , for a user mode phone( a phone that is for sale to normal user), and it is done so because a normal user never need a root permission, over clocking etc. Also user defined kernal,rom,radio updates unless HTC provide them with updates.( and of cource to protect their device and its custom os made by HTC.
So being an s-off device, we can say in simple, unleash the potential of android.( that's what i said, make the device yours and not HTC 's).
And s-off. In can be done using many ways, find them in topic " complete wildfire index " , one of which is using goldcard method. It is also explained in topic/ stickies " downgrade hboot to xxxx". You can download an attached file called buzz downgrade from that topic, and its what you all need.
And about ruu flashing, i think its not a safe one for you, Coz your phone is a3335? Right? If so, original ruu flashing may cause problems with network( called as radio problems), so you can use custom/ safe ruu, instead. Which contains no radio image, check " complete wildfire index" else go for custom os like cm7.
But before all you should mention what you need.
1) r u trying to put custom os, or do you need original os?
2) do you want your phone to be a true android gadget, or just normal phone which is provided by HTC?
3) what kind of user r u? Normal user or a tech junky?
4) r u satisfied with android 2.2 or need 2.3?
Get us the answers, along with your current boot menu( where you find recovery option) details. So that we can help you properly.
That's all dude. Its 2.30 am here in India, so i should wish myself a good night, swtdrmz. Cu ltr.

Oops. Completely missed that point, sorry.
But since the phone is S-OFF one can just flash the system.img and boot.img alone from wwe ruu to remove the carrier bloat and to continue on the HTC stock rom (only if u wish to). Same pc49img process here but with only system.img and boot.img along with android-info.txt .

Have you installed clockwork mod recovery? If not do it first. Use fastboot flash from windows or linux, then download latest cyanogen mod nightly and put it in your sd. Then use install zip option from cwm recovery to install cm7. Done. Its what you want. No radio harm will be done unless you flash a radio using any methods.

No expert but looks like you have an empty sdcard and system.I think you need to get a rom onto your sdcard (cm7 good choice) and then through recovery apply the rom. Zip and reboot after. DONT DO A WIPE.the telestra screen is just a splash screen which will always load before the system searches for data to load,next would be boot loading screen but yours by the looks and sounds of things does not achieve!! Probably cos its not present due to not having a rom installed.hope I helped if not best of luck. Members are very helpful here and cos you can access hboot I am 99% sure this will be fixed for you.

Download this: http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...5.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_signed.exe
Enter HBOOT.
Wait until it finishes trying to load a zip file.
Choose FASTBOOT to enter FASTBOOT USB mode.
Run the downloaded file.
It should then install the original HTC rom.

Or maybe try PC49IMG method if you haven't already?
On your PC click start and type in the search box %temp%,
Keep your eye on this folder and doubleclick your ruu, a new folder should appear in temp folder,
Open it and search for rom.zip,
Copy it to your desktop and rename it to PC49IMG.zip then copy to your SD card and boot into hboot, it should find the zip and install.

Not rooted Wildfire stuck in bootloop - need help

I got my sisters Wildfire here and it's stuck in a bootloop.
It is NOT rooted, has no S-Off and so on.
It has the stock rom.
It didn't run fluently, so I just rebooted it. But since then it doesn't boot.
Tried taking out battery, putting it back in, no success.
Tried taking out SD-Card. no success.
Then I booted into Bootloader (Vol + Power down).
Buzz PVT Ship S-ON
HBOOT-1.01.0001
MICROP-0622

RADIO-3.35.20.10
All I get to choose is Fastboot, Recovery, Clear storage and Sim-lock.
Recovery turns out to be nothing, I can't get to it. Might be, because there is no CWM on it.
I was lucky to be able to root and s-off my DHD, so I don't have any idea, how to fix this problem with the Wildfire.
Any suggestions how to solve this little problem?
Thanks in advance

Which method u adopted for rooting....try revolutionary method and u will be s-on....bt ur mobile doesn't on....try to intall ruu which can be downloaded from shipped-roms.com,download wwe version file....run it,it will install stock rom again,then enable debugging mode,goto revolutionary.io fill the form and copy generated alphanumeric code carefully and download the file run it and u will get s-on....

And if, what to do next with it?
Thanks in advance

- Extract the Rom.zip from the RUU you listed. Procedure here:
http://lukasz.szmit.eu/2010/04/extracting-rom-files-from-htc-android.html
- Rename this zip to PC49IMG.zip
- Place this on the root of the sd card
- Reboot in HBoot mode, the phone will detect the file and will attempt to install. Select Yes and let it proceed.

Thanks, I'll do that when I'm done in University :-D
Just so I have more opportunities in case this happens again.
Could you give me a link to a instruction how to root and s-off?
This would help
And, just in case, which do you think is the best Custom Rom for the Wildfire?

You can use Revolutionary to get S-OFF and Clockworkmod Recovery. Guide here:
http://joel5121.blogspot.com/2011/06/wildfire-22-root-tutorial.html
The only thing that has changed is AlphaRev's Website. The new address is revolutionary.io. Everything else remains the same. Although, you will need a booting device to get it to work.
Lastly, ROM choice depends on whether one would like to keep HTC Sense or not. If not, then I would go with Cyanogenmod / Oxygen (Two ROMs I am pretty sure are available for the DHD as well). And, if you would like to keep HTC Sense, then the current favorites are DK Custom ROM and RemPuzzleROM.
Complete Listing available in the Index Thread linked in my Sig.
Good Luck

I only want to flash a ROM on the Wildfire. My dhd runs on arhd and I won't change that well, unless there's a newer version of arhd
Anyways, what is the best sense ROM
for the Wildfire? Should run smooth but stable and fast. And of course it should've good battery life
Sent from my refrigerator using Tapatalk

I'm stuck myself. Wildfire is working again, but neither can I root nor can I make S-OFF.
On AlphaRevX it "sends in Caroline" and "Caroline" comes out with an error report
However, USB-Debugging was turned on, SD Card active, connected to pc, but "only charge"...
That far for S-Off...
Then I'm trying unrevoked. Works so far, until the Wildifre is in the bootloader. Unrevoked tells me, it's waiting for bootloader. When I choose Fastboot on the device, unrevoked works on and tells me "Waiting for HBOOT to be ready..."
Nothing happens after that. If I choose Bootloader on the device, unrevoked tells me, that it has lost connection to the phone.
Then I tried Gingerbreak. Gingerbreak works, reboots the phone, I check for SU and can't find it. So I guess it's not rooted then :-/
Any suggestions?

Your only (free) option is Revolutionary on Wildfire's with official 2.2.1 and HBoot 1.01.x. Any other method (Unrevoked, Gingerbreak, SuperOneClick etc) will not work and will result in failure. Errors on Revolutionary can usually be treated EXCEPT when it says "Not writing bad block at mtd 0x00000", in which case, there are bad blocks on the NAND memory, and there is no fix yet.
The paid option is to find a store with an XTC Clip hardware box, which can S-OFF the Wildfire as well. They will charge you a 1-time fee for using it.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So since this is exactly the fault that is displayed, there is nothing I can do...
But this other tool for s-off ain't working either. If I'd have at least s-off...in this tutorials I first make s-off and afterwards there is a zip archive which will give me SU. Can I install cwm without Root? I'd really like to flash cyanogen...

No, unfortunately, as I stated in my previous post, you cannot.

The best option will be revolutionary but solve ur first problem and then move on to this...we r always here....
