hi
i have problem and i can not find any solution :/
first problem occured when i tried install TWRP using application - it asked about partition and i confirmed that - it was bad idea.
Due to that i received in bootloader message: Activate cmdline overflow - and it was a bootloop.
I have tried different things, using fastboot and trying to install CWM or other versions of TWRP - no results
Then i used oem firmware - and it helped - line with Activate cmdline overflow - dissapeared.
I installed TWRP in version 2.7.0.4k and everything was fine - even instalation of ROM (MaximusHD 13) went fine.
But after instalation i am getting rumdump message and this problem i can not solve.
Message: Unknown: CPU0: 0x5B, CPU1: 0x5, CPU2: 0x5, CPU3: 0x5, IMEM: 0x776655AA PMIC: RESIN_N (0)

I have tried to install another ROM (InsertCoin) and the result is the same, ramdump message :(
It is strange, because after turning phone on, i can see splash screen from Insertcoint, so it boots, but when it is comming to start the system -> i see ramdump message.

Maybe after flashing with oryginal firmware i done sth wrong?

In general phone is HTC Butterfly S (901e):
*** UNLCOKED ***
DLXP_U PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
CID-11111111
HBOOT-1.54.0000 (this changed after flashing firmware, before i had 1.55)
RADIO-4A.19.3263.16
OpenDSP-v32.120.274.0909
OS-1.21.709.3
eMMC-boot 2048MB

is there any way to solve this?
Please help :)

i've tried stock rom 3.06 from thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2422783 using TWRP (2.7.0.4k)
but with no luck, still the same communicate ramdump :/
any other ideas? or should i still try 1.23, but where i can find that ROM?
maybe there is some problem with partitions? but i dont have proper knowledge about this :/

@migascalp was talking about the firmware, not the ROM. Try downloading the firmware.zip packages from the post you linked to and installing those in order. And yes, this really does appear to be an issue with some of the system partitions. If the only problem is that some partition has wrong contents, you should be able to get the thing to work again this way. If, however, the partition layout got messed up, I have serious doubts.

And in the future, I'd advise to avoid using any apps that claim they can mess with your firmware partitions automatically.

Firmware 1.23.708.3 - results: message
KP: surfaceflinger PC: strlent 0xc/0x20 LR:strlcpy+0x18/0x50
I have received screen with RamDump Saving - and icon :)

Firmware 2.21.708.1
Hboot updated to 1.55 as i can see
and then i am getting message
Active cmdline overflow (1045 bytes)
so as i see moving back

Firmware 3.06.708.3
hboot updated to 1.57
same message: active cmdline overflow (1045 bytes)

Firmware 4.10.708.1
hboot 1.57 still
same communicate unfortunatelly
message: active cmdline overflow (1045 bytes)

i dont know it if is ok but when entering bootloader im getting sth like this
SD Checking ...
Loading...[PO68DIAG.zip]
No image!
Loading...[PO68DIAG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading...[PO68IMG.zip]
Loading...[PO68IMG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!

but then it dissapears and all is ok :)

seems tha tonly version 1.23 helps with message active cmdline overflow, it also gives hboot in version 1.54

any other ideas?
can somebody help me with those partitions? or i have already a brick and i have to say goodbay to phone? :/

Hmmm, I just saw this after your pm @raqs and I'm not sure I Can help since you have the 901e model, I have the 901s. Maybe you can do what I suggested with those firmware files but in reverse. Can't hurt if ya phone's bricked already, can it :confused:

start by making a backup of mmcblk0p24 mmcblk0p20 and verified using a hex editor that matches the description.
see step 2 of the tutorial.

I compare that with mine.

@migascalp does the misc partition on your Butterfly seem similar to what was described in my post?

@raqs just got off work, any progress? first go back to a custom recovery (downgrade firmware if needed), and make sure you find the correct partition:

Code:
adb shell cat /proc/emmc

then pull it as mentioned in step 2 of my guide (substituting "/dev/block/mmcblk0p19" with whatever block your misc partition is in), and send it to migascalp and/or me to take a look at it.

here you go, i've nulled out pretty much most of the partition.

extract the attached file (using WinRAR), put it in your adb/fastboot folder and flash it, while booted in custom recovery:

Code:
adb push mmcblk0p20_fixed.img /tmp/

adb shell dd if=/tmp/mmcblk0p20_fixed.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p20

after that you should no longer receive the "active cmdline overflow" when you update firmware.

good luck

    here you go, i've nulled out pretty much most of the partition.

    extract the attached file (using WinRAR), put it in your adb/fastboot folder and flash it, while booted in custom recovery:

    Code:
    adb push mmcblk0p20_fixed.img /tmp/
    
    adb shell dd if=/tmp/mmcblk0p20_fixed.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p20

    after that you should no longer receive the "active cmdline overflow" when you update firmware.

    good luck

    @nkk71 & @migascalp: returned home earlier as i couldnt wait so much ... it is working! :) firmware installed 3.06.708.3, twrp 2.7.0.4k, rom maximusHD v13 and it is working! havent been so happy for ages hehe :)
    Guys, let me know how i can repay You, cause without You it would be most expensive paper holder, not a phone :)

    Good to hear :D

    I could always use a few million euros, or just one... even a few hundred thousand would be fine :p :silly: (who couldnt ;))


    Glad to have been of help :)

    and if you could also edit the main thread title to include [SOLVED] (go to 1st post click EDIT, at the bottom of the edit window click GO ADVANCED, then you can edit the main title), thanks
