As you probably all know, the Advanced Hack Kit (a.k.a Hack Kit) has been retired for good yesterday. Does that mean that you can not achive root privilege anymore? NO
NO, YOU DON'T NEED S-OFF TO FLASH ROMS....
Getting root acces
Unlock your bootloader with HTCDEV or using this tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2133336
Then flash CWM or 4ext recovery in fastboot per this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30020025&postcount=7 and make a nand backup.
Then reboot into recovery and flash SU or SuperSU.
Reboot the device and voilá. You are done
IF YOUR BUILD VERSION IS NOT SUPPORTED TO UPDATE THEN:
Create a goldcard using this tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970157 (you need a working phone for this)
Find a RUU which main version is supported and higher than yours and flash it in the PD98IMG.zip way, that is what is the goldcard for.
Re run the tool and you will be able to update the hboot and unlock it
The other way to achive root access is to flash a custom rom after unlocking the bootloader.
As you can notice root access is easy to be gained but not S-OFF. If you are skilled in android and working with terminal or cmd commands, then you can use this: http://tau.shadowchild.nl/attn1/?p=411
Flashing roms with an unlocked bootloader
Unlock your bootloader and flash a custom recovery (CWM or 4ext)
Download the rom zip file you are willing to flash to your PC.
Extract the the boot.img from inside the zip file (do not extract the whole rom)
Put the zip file in your sdcard.
Boot into recovery and do a full wipe (wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, format system)
Flash rom (install zip from sdcard)
Reboot into bootloader again and plug the phone to the PC.
You need to be in fastboot usb (if you see HBOOT USB PLUG in the phone, just press power to toggle)
Open a cmd/terminal and navigate to where the boot.img file is located.
Type: fastboot flash boot boot.img If you don´t how to do that, watch this video (it is in spanish, thou you can follow it without listening to the instructions)
Reboot and now you should be enjoying your custom rom
Rooting without the Ace kit!
Hi there
Is there a thread or some sort of a step by step manual on how to install ROM with unlocked boot loader (s on) without ace advance hacking kit or perhaps a working method where you can install CWM on a Gingerbread. (I have successfully unlocked the boot loader on htcdev)
Thanks a million

Check the guide in my signature, you will find the information you need in there. Don't forget to flash the boot.img of the custom rom in fastboot. Enjoy...
Not registering to mobile network!
Thanks Glevitan
I found the manual and all went smooth and easy. I have one problem though.
The phone does not register to any mobile network. Any idea how to bypass that? It was originally locked on Orange UK network.
Thanks again

CM-7.2.0-ace.zip and then I tried aospX-1.0.0-MR1-DHD.zip.
I flashed it many times these two ROM's after Ace Kit without any issues. Also I noticed that every time I restart the phone it requires the network unlocking code. It is weird!
the pdf file to flash a custom rom/recovery, i dont understand.. how exactly do i flash a custom rom?? for example codefirex??
Hello,
I try to unlock my bootloader with HTCDEV or by using that tool but have some problems.
At step 8 (HTCDEV) Type in Command Prompt: fastboot oem get_identifier_token
After that you should see a long block of text. But I only get this:
<bootloader> [ERR] Command error !!!
OKAY [ 0.016s]
finished. total time: 0.016s
what's going wrong? what can I do?

Your build nor your hboot version support unlocking the bootloader. You can try updating the hboot manually by flashing 0029 hboot. However that is a dangerous process. Otherwise, you can create a goldcard and flash a RUU with a Main version that supports the update.

Phone: DHD, 3.20.502.52, ATT
I have successfully unlocked the phone (via HTCDev)
And have successfully rooted the phone.
I installed the ROM Manager and Titanium Backup.
I have the ADB drivers successfully installed on my computer.
I also have HTC Quick Root running on my computer.
I am NOT able to get the CWM Recovery installed on the phone. I always get a " /cache/recovery..." error.
I've searched and read a number of threads that have indicated the DHD Gingerbread is particularly difficult to get ROM Manager fully working. I tried the process outlined here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39016279), using the easyunlock tool. the script appears to run fine, i've even gone through the redundant step of putting the unlockcode received from htcdev into the tools directory and allowing the script to complete, which it appears to do fine. However, the script indicates the phone should execute some commands as a final step, at which point my phone is already sitting in the bootloader menu and does nothing.
I'm reasonably comfortable with ADB commands and the terminal emulator on the phone.
Can anyone help me understand why I'm failing and what I might do to get the CWM Recovery installed and get ROM Manager working?
My end goal is to install a more battery efficient ROM.

hello friends, I wrote phone information. phone system came update. The new update file appears as 1.90.401.3, but not tamamyal system update for the Twrp Recovery is installed. I was in the Recovery menu. According to information I'm looking for my phone for OTA update files. Thank you in advance for your friends to help you.
Hello friend, you must firstly flash stock recovery to OTA. On the top of that, you should have an unmodified system partition.

these as detailed by the howtos linked by the previous post, are not flashable from custom recovery. You need stock recovery not a custom like TWRP.
Or rather be using Fastboot tool from a PC, that's the most convenient in your situation i think
Mod edit: download link removed, members should not have to jump through hoops to download a file. Please provide a link that members can access easily.
How to flash? S-Off required?
No need s-off its official rom just copy in sdcard rename it to 0P6BIMG.zip and put phone in bootloader more and follow instruction.

But why? Android file host, or mega, or any of the other common sites? When you look at the board index of that site, there are a lot of zero post sections. It's kinda like a low rated Ebay seller....you just say hmmm.
Why not mirror links, the download is free after registration anyway, xda is a free community. So basically you are spamming xda for your own satisfaction ? Why always so mysterious.......just share. Get the links up and share the help other users can use too. Don't turn it around.
I can upload it in 15 minutes and wouldn't ask for any registration.

I have not done any modifications to the phone like rooting, install custom ROM etc. but my phone suddenly stopped working & all that i can see is the boot screen.

No this will not help you, the best you can do is to get the 6.12.401 ruu exe or zip file. They are posted here on xda too.
This file (that was available) is not meant for your phone at all !
@Mr Hofs will u please provide the link of 6.12.401.4 ruu .exe link

Sure, here is the ruu.zip
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=65839307
Check the thread for instructions. Basically you need to rename the .zip file and place in the root of the Sd Card, then boot into the boot loader and the rest will be done automatically.
Be aware that this will WIPE the entire phone !!!

My CID is HTC__034 currently running 2.18.401.10 Firmware but modified system not being able to use OTA files Backup of system and boot before rooting didn't help as restoring still shows modified being unable to flash OTA manually - suckz badly...

2. Signed Firmware 2.18.401.8 --> 2.18.401.10 (out of OTA above)
Any help highly appreciated.
Thanks!

Huh. Can you provide a little more by the way of identifying information on your phone? I can't find anything about the CID you've mentioned. Can you provide your MID or your SKU?
Hi,
corrected some typos in above post especially regarding the Firmwareversion
Corrected Data:
M9 Prime Camera Edition - Released in Germany end of April 2016 --> I am not sure about the correct abbreviation as everyojne in this forum refers to this mobile differently. Product ID is htc_himaruhl - with an "R" in it
Firmware: 2.18.401.10 --> came with buggy 2.18.401.8 originally
Cidnum: HTC__034 --> unbranded "Europe" Version
In particular I am looking for the following
1. RUU "2PRGIMG_HIMAR_ML_UHL_M60_SENSE70GP_HTC_Europe_2.18 .401.10..."
2. Alternatively a unmodified System and Boot Dump of Version 2.18.401.8 OR 2.18.401.10 would be sufficient as well
If other data needed I will be able to provide it 2nite - I am currently at work.
Thanks for your help,
Michael
Any one here
1. with access to the above mentioned RUU?
2. or could provide me with a clean and unmodified System + Boot Backup 2.18.401.8 or 2.18.401.10 for M9 Prime Camera Edition --> Product ID HIMAR

Sadly, you're stuck. Pay for S-OFF (fairly surefire) or for access to the RUU collection sites (a bit iffy).
Same problem here... tried to root and always stuck at starting twrp.
Did'nt found RUU or even the stock recovery.
So I have to wait until anyone is helping because I have no idea about restore or root that crab phone....
Edit:
After I flashed TWRP my DATA-partition is cleaned and could not mount anymore. So my System is totally damaged ... now I formated the data and it could mount again. But I have no RUU to rebuild system again.

Rooting is no problem with stock firmware for that phone. Just flash supersu systemless 2.71 BETA, works like a charm
My Problem is More related to a modified system partition after xposed install - which also works flawlessly! I have performed backups right after unpacking as I am not doing that the first time, had a m7 before which broke after dropping it the 30th time - RIP my m7 (
Restoring the initial backups does not help to get back to unmodified state, therefore I need a clean backup or RUU...
So far: No luck...;-(

Great job. Thanks a lot.
Let me know how it works.
Having spent HOURS over HOURS now to flash RUU correctly, I thought I may share what resulted with success for me:
1. Download RUU: https://rapidu.net/5015736911/2PRGI...U-W.T-_release_477006_combined_signed_2_4.zip
2. Download HTC fastboot: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96042739161891970
3. Reboot to Download Mode
4. Optional: Set Phone to "Relocked" if you like with "fastboot oem lock"
5. fastboot oem rebootRUU
6. Flash RUU.zip with "htc_fastboot flash zip RUUZIPName.zip"
7. Enjoy
Placing ruu.zip on my SDcard having it name "2PRGIMG.zip", trying to install in Stock Recovery by selecting it from a FAT32 formatted External SDcard, etc. pp - ALL did NOT work!
Have fun

Thanks @sabpprook - but why so complicated restoring partition by partition if you link the signed RUU as well? I mean ok: You won't wipe the userdata partition - fair point. But in the end all you will get is a "dirty flashed" ROM. If you want to do so you should also consider wiping cache partition.
But in my case for example the above did not work as my partition layout seemed to be "corrupt" and also security partitions were messed up. After lock, flashing full RUU and new unlock everything worked like a charm again Most important thing I noted was that I had to use htc_fastboot for M9 which I couldn't find on HTCs official site as they only offer a very old version to download Standard fastboot from mini-sdk in latest version also will fail as it is not able to get pass HTCs size limitation for RUU...
PS: If you like I could provide you with signed firmware 2.18.401.10 as well so that S-OFF is not needed anymore. Or just extract it from the OTA I have sent you earlier - no decrypt required there
Update 2.32.401.1 is available now
HIMAR_ML_UHL it is HTC One M9 Prime Camera Edition ?
A couple days ago, I found this phone (a T-Mobile myTouch 3G with a 3.5mm headphone jack, apparently version 1.2) running CM(5? 6? honestly don't remember) and decided to revert it back to stock. Worst mistake of my life.
Throughout getting back to stock, I have (a) unlocked the phone on HTCDev and downloaded their hboot version, (b) wiped system through fastboot on RUU, (c) get goldcard and flash with a stock cupcake image I found on the forums and (d) flash that image with fastboot on RUU mode. None have worked and I'm stuck.
I extracted rom.zip from (number 57) "2.10.531.4 T-Mobile USA DRD35" on the official list of RUUs. With my phone in RUU mode, I did the following and got the output:
Code:
> sudo ~me/bin/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/fastboot flash zip rom.zip
sending 'zip' (62177 KB)...
OKAY [ 13.218s]

FAILED (remote: 43 main version check fail)
finished. total time: 33.892s
After further googling, I found that meant that the main version was higher than what was getting flashed. I was pretty confused as I couldn't find a higher version, but I stand corrected, as my phone apparently has it:
Code:
> sudo ~me/bin/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/fastboot getvar version-main
version-main: 3.57.0.0
finished. total time: 0.001s
I have no idea why it's like that (perhaps the HTC hboot update gave it that, or perhaps whenever I installed CM on it I found that), nor what main-version is.
At the moment, my phone shows this at the top in RUU mode:
Code:
*** RELOCKED ***
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0014 (SAPP31000)
CPLD-13
RADIO-2.22.20.25

Does anyone have advice on how I might get out of this hole I have created for myself? If the phone is bricked, that's meh, but I'd really like to get this working. I do understand that this phone is really old and that most people don't have it, so any help is appreciated. I'm using Ubuntu, but can get my hands on a Windows or OS X machine if needed.
Well, I think you could try making a gold card, flashing an older SPH via HBOOT, then using the RUU to update once again. Or try making an SPH out of your rom.zip, but I have no idea how that works.
By the way, how'd you get fastboot to work? I can't seem to get my drivers working (see my thread in this subsection), although it may be because I'm using Windows XP and you're using some sort of Linux/Unix.
