[Q] New year and new tragedy with my view

---

On new year's eve, i decided to upgrade GB to HC to have a taste of the new OS.

but then tragedy comes. after downloaded OTA updates and reboot my view, I stuck on the HTC screen till now.

Yet I can boot into bootloader, and now my devices is S-ON with HBOOT 1.130000, I have tried to unlock the bootloader via HTCDEV website, but when I type: fastboot oem get_identifier_token, it give me the error:

(bootloader) [ERR] Command error !!!
OKAY [ 0.016s]
finished. total time: 0.016s

and when I type--adb devices, it shows--list of devices attached.

I did sucessfully installed htc driver and uninstalled htc sync and even reinstalled win 7 system. but it looks like adb can't identify my view correctly.

and also I tried to unlock my tablet via http://revolutionary.io/, but the tool-revolutionary.exe always shows--waiting for devices.

I have also tried to run RUU_Express_Sprint_WWE_1.22.651.1_Radio_1.05.11.05 31_NV_2.28_SPCS_release_198141_signed, and all my effort was in vain.

So this is the situation. besides,I bought this tablet from local retailer in China, there is no way to turn to HTC for help.

I am looking forward someone here may give me some help.

Thank you in advanced!

Send PM to Globaton.
Hopefully he will be able to help you.

boot the view to fastboot mode and give me a 'fastboot getvar all'

Globatron,thank you for your help.

here is the result:


D:\android>fastboot getvar all
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.13.0000
(bootloader) version-baseband: 1.05.01.1006_3

ok, you're in an odd state here, you're caught in no man's land between gingerbread and honeycomb.

download this: http://www.multiupload.com/GAZ67V0VY1

flash it as follows:

boot the view to fastboot mode

fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader

It won't give you a bootable system, but it will allow you to unlock the bootloader.

At that point you will be able to flash the honeycomb cwm, and either install a custom rom or revert to GB to S-OFF.

Globatron,I did as your instruction,and pls take a look following information of fastboot getvar all, which step should i proceed? sorry,but I am a newbie here.

ok, now unlock the bootloader through htcdev.

Globatron, after unlocked bootloader via htcdev, to my surprise, without doing something else, it succssfully boot into HC,you have save my view and save me a lot of hopeless effort. If you don't mind,I will post your method to the local view forum, as far as I know,there are many people have the same problem as I am.

I really appreciate all your help. wish you have a good day!
