Can someone confirm that my update zip for the touch recovery is working properly? The downloads are going one for one with the old non-touch recovery.

Worked like a charm, I already the eng bootloader but I have been wanting stock ROM just because. Interestingly enough I did a temp root that you would use to downgrade so I can uninstall the bloat. Not only did it work but I have perm root. I even powered off my device and installed apps which require root access and each time I would get SU request. I don't know if it has to do with this version of the stock ROM or the fact that I have the eng bootloader. Sorry if if I posted in the wrong section I didn't know where to post this.

As far as I know that's is the only engineering boot loader there is. I believe the april 2011 version came from when HTC started working on the gingerbread update for the phone.

The file has to be on the root of your SD card not in download folder

the zip file call PD15IMG is on the root of the sd card, thats why im confused

its pre ota, not sure if that has anything to do with it

Pre ota? If your saying what I think your saying you don't have soff. You need soff for this mod to work. Although I think your phone should still see the file. Also I was looking at your sig and there is no mention of the mytouch. You are in the right forum correct? Lol


If you can upload a pic of your bootloader at the normal screen as well as it looking for the file please

Hi There,
I have the same problem
I have S-OFF, installed countless ROM's, HBOOT 86.0 and I have the zip file at the root of the SDCRAD and it still won't read it.

Hi all, An update on this small issue.
I had a problem using the files and flash CWM and engineering HBOOT. I just couldn't let go of it so I kept digging.
Since I was having a few issues with my ROM as well I suspected something isn't quite right about my permaroot procedure.
I run through the initial permaroot procedure again, finally run ./gfree --secu_flag off --cid 11111111 and ..PRESTO!
It's working like charm. Managed to use the file and update both CWM and Engineering HBOOT.
And so far it seems It solved my ROM problems as well.

P.S: My device had previous S_OFF and root but I guess something was missing there

So, that's my two cents

    Hey All,

    Here are some PD15IMG varients. This is great for noobs who are unsure about flashing the engineering boatlader wich is highly RECOMMENDED as well as a custom recovery. Once you have achieved s-off use this file to continue your rooting process. Again this only works for those of you that currently have S-OFF!!!!

    You may ask why do I need an engineering bootloader the answer is you technically don't. However, it can be your last line of defense against a soft brick and is strongly suggested by any experienced modder!!!

    I have included 3 separate downloads. The first file contains ClockworkMod and the engineering bootloader. I did not offer a separate file containing just CWM 5 or just the bootloader due to a few reasons. One being I believe everybody should have the Eng. bootloader and second being this offers a true flash of a custom recovery where Rom Manager does not. If you would like just one or the other open up the zip file and delete the desired file. The second file is the most recent update offered from T-Mobile. That file will give you the update unrooted and as it is intended from T-Mobile. However, it will give you an eng bootloader with CWM 5 instead of the locked bootloader and stock recovery. Allowing you to return to another rom or previous nandroid backup. The third file is for if you ever want to go back to a stock splash image or yours begins to fail. Finally, I also added thee new ClockworkMod touch recovery with the eng bootloader for the last file.


    I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your device please proceed at your own risk. I have tested this myself and it works just fine. However, if something were to happen to your device don't blame me :D

    1.Download which file you want

    2. Rename it to PD15IMG and place on the root of your SD card

    3. If using the second file make a nandroid backup first.

    4. Boot into H-boot and apply the update (by holding volume down and powering on the phone)

    5. Once the update has finished either re-rename the file to something different or delete it from the sd card otherwise you will keep installing the update
    AGAIN THIS IS FOR S-OFF ONLY

    BLINGO BLAMO You now can either flash your favorite rom or restore a previous nandroid backup:eek::cool:






    The downloads

    This file contains the new ClockworkMod 5.0.2.0 and the Eng H-Boot 85.2007

    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/69550670/PD15IMG_eng_hboot_.zip

    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/69550670/PD15IMG_eng_hboot_touch_Recent_update.zip

    THIS 2nd FILE WILL ERASE ALL FILES AND DATA ON YOUR PHONE

    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/69550670/PD15IMG_Splash_.zip

    So this flashes the engineering bootloader, the latest ClockworkMod recovery, and the OTA Gingerbread ROM all in one shot? I've never heard of such a package, pretty cool! :thumbs up:

    EDIT: I read it again, and apparently it's just the bootloader and recovery. Still pretty cool!

    PD15IMG for CWM only.zip - rename to PD15IMG.zip and flash from bootloader to install custom recovery on an S-OFF Glacier

    PD15IMG for reroot.zip - same as above but also contains ENG HBOOT
