I can get access to fastboot and recovery,

Tried to downgrade using its original RUU, but its fails at the end with both globaltron methods; I think im doing something wrong here.


Method 1: followed the easy install guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1307759
  1. When pushing
    "adb push misc_version_flyer_wifi /data/local/tmp/misc_version"
  2. it says No such file or directory
  3. but file is in root sd folder

Method 2: Downgrade from HC beta leaks or official HC OTA to Gingerbread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19607833&postcount=3
  1. Im using the "RUU_Flyer_BrightstarUS_WWE_2.27.1540.31_R_Radio_2 0 .3504.30.089BU_3809.07.04.06_M_release_204116_sign ed.zip" file.
  2. Pushed the bootloader, all seems fine, then at after "oem rebootRUU",
  3. it restarts and there is black htc start screen instead of white and hangs.
  4. Restart to go to hboot.
  5. in Fastboot I flash rom.zip
  6. I get fail message:
    sending 'zip' (500195 KB)... OKAY [ 94.924s]
    writing 'zip'... INFOadopting the signature contained in this image...
    FAILED (remote: not allowed)
    finished. total time: 94.926s

And looks like you never relocked your hboot. And you are using dated method to go to hc, should be using globatron s off hc method

yea I should have gone with globatrons method instead of Pauls. Did not know there was a difference, and the only reason I went with Pauls is that there were some instructions for flashing radio and other files from Leedroids zip package.

Also, did not know you can still access fastboot with the black htc screen.

There are two RUU for Best Buy tablet:
RUU_Flyer_BrightstarUS_WWE_X.XX.1540.XX
cidnum: BS_US001 (find out by in fastboot type: fastboot getvar cid )

Frist RUU: 2.27.1540.31
Tried 2.27.1540.31 RUU, which i read is newer latest updated android, but this give me the following error:

sending 'zip' (500195 KB)... OKAY [ 77.920s]
writing 'zip'... INFOadopting the signature contained in this image...
INFOzip header checking...
INFOzip info parsing...
FAILED (remote: 99 unknown fail)
finished. total time: 83.743s
Second RUU: 1.36.1540.32
On the 1.36.1540.32 RUU, the extracted Hboot name is a .img file and wont push in adb. Says error device not found and cannot continue. Does this file have to be a .nb0 like the other RUU?

You should not be trying to push hboot anyway and you cannot use adb unless in recovery

Did you OEM lock?

Thank you mcord! flashed worked with the 2.27.1540.31 RUU and it was the due to not locking the bootloader. Thought locking the bootloader only applied to globaltron's method 1 as that says to do so and is absent in method 2 instructions.

will soon write what i learned so that it may help someone else.

sorry to hijack but why is it so important to oem lock? it won't prevent you from flashing any of the files?

In this case when attempting to flash the system zip pulled from the ruu.exe you need to relock or it won't flash. There is no longer a need to use HTC dev unlock anymore. Use globatrons s off hc upgrade in development and you do not need to lock before revert, but you then do have to push hboot

I have sort of the same problem. I upgraded to HC via globaltron. I was having problems with HC and attempted to downgrade via globaltron's method 2. I am a noob and unfamiliar with adb.

How do you lock the bootloader.

When rebooting I am stuck on the white htc screen.

I am able to gain access to the bootloader (HBOOT 6.10.1002 Radio 3809.07.04.06_M) and Rev CWM recovery.

Thank you
