Default [Solved]Hboot 1.5 Rom/Recovery install issues (fastboot/FlashimageGui/RomMgr) 2-4-12

Link to SDX version of this thread: HTC Unlocked/S-On Recovery install issues (fastboot, FlashimageGui, RomMgr) http://forum.sdx-developers.com/?topic=18924.0
I will update both sites as I go along. Thanks.

Additional posts/info below.
(7 Detailed working/non-working flashing scenario's can be seen in Post #10) http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...1&postcount=10

UPDATE 2-1-12: recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.1-shooter.img file works with HBOOT 1.50!!!!
http://download.clockworkmod.com/rec....1-shooter.img
MD5: 4af206699e1cad1fcd0fde8736f8b4f8

Here's the latest: recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.2-shooter.img (haven't tried it yet)
http://download.clockworkmod.com/rec....2-shooter.img
MD5: 5f0e65bf2e408a9b39b7b9fc9ce63ce8

and here's the main CWM Link: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager

Just to summarize:
- I have an HTC Unlocked hboot 1.50 3D that had to be relocked to run the 651.5 update (only way to get the radio updated with s-on, right?). Previously, I couldn't unlock on 651.3 and had to run the full 651.3 Ruu.exe to get the unlock code.bin file to work.

- I can load CWM Recovery v 4.0.1.4 and Su-3.0-efgh-signed.zip (I Can load twrp 2 also).
- I can boot to hboot and CWM Recovery v 4.0.1.4 only (not 5.0.2.0 or in between) and make a full backup.
- I can restore my CWM's Backup (after formatting system & a data wipe) including boot.img (kernel) via "fastboot boot" recovery.img command.
- I can load a good Rom zip (with kernel) in one shot via "fastboot boot" recovery.img command.
- I can load a good Rom zip (load kernel 1st w/Flashimage) after booting to hboot then selecting recovery.

Personnally I am beginning to think this all has to do with the way HTC Unlocked the phone, or these specific builds of CWM 4.0.1.4, CWM Touch 5.8.0.2, and TWRP 2.0 rc0.1 are the only ones that work with HTC Unlocked Evo3d's.

Update/solved (rom file issue only) - I can't load the "Blast from the Past" (Ti-X_3D_V1.zip) Rom by using FlashImage to extract / flash the kernel and then use CWM Recovery to flash the rom's zip and then reboot.
Update/solved (rom file issue only) - I can't flash the extracted rom's "Boot.img" via fastboot & then the Rom.zip from recovery.
Update/solved (recovery version issue?) I STILL can't load the latest cwm recovery using (Fastboot, FlashImage, or CWM Rom Manager). This also occured prior to the 651.5 update.

I have an Hboot 1.50 Unlocked/S-On 3D and recently did the upgrade to 651.5 after "relocking" and running the 651.3 Ruu.exe (Note I had recovery install issues with 651.3). I then ran the Unlock code again.
Note: Sites where I DL'd files from are in parenthesis ( ). Links in the "Useful Links" thread in my signature. Screen grab of my pc's C:/android Adb/fastboot folder is attached (DL'd via HTC's Adb links).

Note2: Make sure any fastboot cmds/img filenames EXACTLY match YOUR installed recovery and the file in the ADB folder! ie: cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img ( RecoveryFilename.img )or just copy & paste the full filename vs typing.


- I can't seem to "fastboot flash recovery" anything but the CWM 4.0.1.4 that Zedomax packaged up (htcevohacks).
cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img (htcevohacks or Attn1's XDA Thread)
MD5: 296b356378f70d963081ad07a1507ff0


UPDATE 2-1-12: recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.1-shooter.img file works with HBOOT 1.50!!!!
http://download.clockworkmod.com/rec....1-shooter.img
MD5: 4af206699e1cad1fcd0fde8736f8b4f8

Here's the latest: recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.2-shooter.img (haven't tried it yet)
http://download.clockworkmod.com/rec....2-shooter.img
MD5: 5f0e65bf2e408a9b39b7b9fc9ce63ce8

and here's the main CWM Link: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager

- I then booted to hboot -> fastboot -> recovery (4.0.1.4) and flashed the following zips:
su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip (HtcEvoHacks)
MD5: A2844AC335A5C1CFDB9BEA2FC041B415 (this file errored out, don't recall exact message)


So I flashed this one
su-3.0-efgh-signed.zip (therootofallevo or Attn1's XDA Thread)
MD5: C05902FDF90F7635C711E4DCD1C32C45 ( no problems,)


Rebooted ran JK's Root Check, which only showed BusyBox not installed. DL'd from market (let it install to default checked location and rechecked. BB checked good. DL'd latest SuperUser 3.07 from market, Root Check still shows all good. Went back to recovery and was able to make a stock backup and another after installing apps and setting up phone.

- All good, but when I've tried the following files within fastboot at Cmd prompt (all show, completed/okay), but the phone just reboots to the os when I try to enter Recovery.

recovery-clockwork-4.0.1.5-shooter.img (CWM)
MD5: dd3f01536c9cc516ed0d15264037bf30

recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-shooter.img (CWM)
MD5: 8c3c029915540552ea7f17fdc8313c90


twrp-shooter-2.0.0RC0.1.img (teamw.in) Update: Worked on 1-25-12
MD5: 6fd093de2536941d2efbeb9ae1278e36


I have also tried JoeyKrim's FlashImageGui (v1.3.7) to flash the recovery image files, it shows completed successfully but get the same outcome. http://youtu.be/Ix5Xfs3NvlQ

Downloaded CWM's Rom Manager to let it install the latest recovery (5.0.2.0), that shows success and lets me see the backups from v 4.0.1.4, but again I can no longer boot into the recovery from within hboot or the os (quickboot & RomMgr).

I have also tried renaming the following TWRP zip to PG86IMG.zip and booting into hboot [s]but it doesn't load correctly either, can't recall exactly but it completes the process, and can't get into recovery[/s].

PG86IMG-twrp-shooter-2.0.0RC0.1.zip (teamw.in)
MD5: ed0f883ffce836c85dcbe9b13782c1e3


I currently can't enter a recovery, RomMgr shows v4.0.1.5 at the moment (tried it too). So I am going to try and push v4.0.1.4 over again via fastboot.

Update: " fastboot flash recovery cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img " worked again. RomMgr still thinks I've got v4.0.1.5. Will play around with this some more. I want to make sure I get a reliable updateable recovery before I try flashing roms and kernels.

Update 2 (1-17-11):
- Used Flashimage and let it extract the recovery from the
PG86IMG-twrp-shooter-2.0.0RC0.1.zip
and that worked. Nice touch screen interface but I think I'll stick with CWM if I can get it updated.
- Renamed Zedomax's zip to " recovery-cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img "
and was able to re-flash it with FlashImage.
- Redownloaded the CWM 5.0.2.0 .img from the CWM Download page, put on root of sdcard & tried again with FlashImage. No luck. Same thing flashing it from fastboot (cmd prompt).
- Renamed the TWRP 2.0 rc0.1 zip to PG86IMG.zip and booting into hboot got it to load and was able to boot to the recovery.

Update 3 (1-22-12):
- Used Flashimage and let it extract the recovery from (sdcard/sdx folder) the
recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-shooter.zip ( MD5: 175927e5d69ac1d05b2e468c87828b20 )
everything indicated success, but instead of rebooting to OS it reboots the bootloader when selecting "recovery" within hboot. Same if flashed from root of sdcard.

Update 4 (1-23-12):
- Finally figured out that you have to use "adb" commands when the phone is in the Android OS (debugging mode was the clue). However, this was no help with my issue.
- ? Is there a difference b/w "adb reboot bootloader" to the hboot/fastboot screen then "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-shooter.img" vs just powering down the phone, booting to hboot, select fastboot, then "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-shooter.img" ?
- ? Is there some reason why TWRP 2.0 and CWM 4.0.1.4 are the only recoveries that work on HTC Unlocked Hboot 1.50 Evo3d's?

Update 5 (1-25-12): Good Flash, See Post #10 http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...1&postcount=10

Update 6 (1-30-12): Good Flash, See Post #10: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...1&postcount=10
- I think something may be up with the "Blast from the Past" Rom's zip ( Ti-X_3D_V1.zip ) . Can't load it and its kernel after formatting/wiping from Cwm recovery via "fastboot boot cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img" command.

- I can use the same process to load Qnhoang's QRS 3.0 Rom & kernel (651.3 based) on my hboot 1.5 setup successfully (still can only load Cwm 4 or Twrp 2.0 recoveries).

- I can format & properly restore my Cwm backups if I use the "fastboot boot cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img" command. Booting to Cwm any other way for a restore/flash (ie quickboot, pwr + Vol dn) leaves previous kernel behind & MAY cause a bootloop as it did for me going from Qnhoang's 651.3 based Rom back to my 651.5 backup (had to "fastboot boot" to cwm recovery & reflash boot.img backup from "restore -> advanced" option separately).

Update 7 (2-1-12):
- I just flashed latest CWM "Touch" Recovery via "fastboot flash recovery" command and it worked! I have a new up to date recovery that works with my HBOOT 1.50 Unlocked 3D!

Added update 4

Is there some reason why TWRP 2.0 and CWM 4.0.1.4 are the only recoveries that work on HTC Unlocked Hboot 1.50 Evo3d's?

- Got bored and tried to flash DC13's 651.5 (ROM) Blast From The Past V1 19JAN12 using flashimage and CWM 4.0.1.4:
http://forum.sdx-developers.com/?topic=18033.0

[from JoeyKrim's directions]
HTC Unlock - Hboot 1.5 Users Guide for ROMs with a Kernel (boot.img file):
1) Unlock using HTC method for Hboot 1.5 users
2) Load this application, Flash Image GUI, onto the device.
3) Download ROM .zip file to the sdcard on the device ( /sdcard/sdx/Ti-X_3D_V1.zip ).
4) Open up Flash Image GUI, select Browse and select the ROM .zip file, downloaded to /sdcard in the previous step.
5) Flash Image GUI will provide a warning, reminding that the ROM .zip file will *need* to be flashed in the custom recovery afterward.
6) Flash Image GUI will index the full ROM .zip file searching for the kernel and kernel modules. Once located, the Flash Image button should be enabled.
7) Select the Flash Image button and Flash Image GUI will load the kernel modules and kernel from inside the ROM zip file. [F.I. said successful]
skipped - 8 ) Once completed, turn off the device. (Assuming you've already loaded a custom recovery)
skipped - 9) Hold volume down + power to boot into the bootloader. Select recovery.

NEW - 8 ) Once completed, got a prompt to "reboot recovery" and selected that option vs. power down & rebooting to recovery (cwm 4.0.1.4)

9) Inside the custom recovery, load/flash the ROM zip file "Ti-X_3D_V1.zip " . (CWM 4.0.1.4 shows competed).
10) Reboot to normal Android mode and all should work including Wifi!

NOTE: Phone rebooted and every thing is fine because the kernel didn't change and the Rom didn't load. Phone is exactly as before!

Over 900 views and No one else has this issue?

Anyone seeing this problem or understand why Revolutionary CWM Recovery 4.0.1.4 or TWRP 2.0rc0.1 are the only recoveries I can load on my hboot 1.50 3d?

What to do, what to do. Stuck with either CWM 4.0.1.4 or Twrp 2.0. More to come.
I have a similar problem on my phone The only recovery I can get to work on mine are TWRP I have tried installing them in hboot through adb and by using flashgui and nothing works

Thanks for the reply and confirmation. I've seen some similar posts here and Qwestonabl intenshons at Sdx has the same problem so it's just a matter of seeing how many are truly affected by this and trying to get a dev involved that has access to an hboot 1.50 phone to work with.

I prefer using cwm the 4 version you used. I just use adb make sure debug is on. Make sure cwm file is called cwm.img.img if you rename it. Also make sure it's in your platform tools folder. Put the boot.img in your platform tools folder too.

1.adb reboot bootloader
2.fastboot flash recovery cwm.img
3. it should be there
4. I always snag the boot.img outta the rom I want for the hell of it easy for me others dont like doing it.
5. I wipe everything in recovery after having the rom I want and the boot.img
6. then type adb reboot bootloader
7. fastboot flash boot boot.img
8. go to recovery and flash rom

I know some folks do it many other ways this way has never failed me and I prefer it. I don't use TWRP 2.0 me and bunch other folks had dirty flashes with it among missing apk files that came with a rom and themes didn't flash that were part of the rom.

So I stay away from TWRP 2.0. CWM has worked flawless.

I couldn't get the latest CWM 5 version to flash it kept acting like there was no recovery.


I prefer it to be easy and not use a bunch of other programs tend to keep it simple and clean. I know the way I do things many folks do it another way.

I haven't had any issues.

Thanks for the reply Reaper, (I like your avatar, it looks like my tatoo). I came across another post of yours (same proceedure) and I was going to give it a go after loading TWRP (not preferred).
(HELP!)Issues After Unlocking Bootloader (HTC METHOD)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...41&postcount=2

Question: when flashing the "boot.img" file separately separately in fastboot, does it include all the kernel modules?
(this is one of the features of FlashImage extracting the kernel from a rom to flash for you)

Admittedly I am a little leary b/c even if the boot.img doesn't flash with the rom in recovery b/c of s-On, I should see the stock kernel/boot.img in settings/about phone mixed with the rom I flashed (Blast from the Past v1).

Post Unlocked Hboot 1.50 fastboot Cmd Good/Bad Scenarios

Here is a step by step breakdown of 7 HBoot 1.50 Scenarios I went through after reading & following directions from the various threads that have been suggested to follow:

Note:
- These start from Android os with phone connected via USB (usb debug enabled), but you can manually boot to the bootloader/hboot and continue in fastboot mode once you see "fastboot USB" at the top of the phone screen.
- goto Settings -> Power -> Fast boot (uncheck/disable it)
- start CMD Prompt within your android sdk tools or platform tools folder or where ever you copied the ADB.exe, fastboot.exe, etc files to.
(shortcut: locate/open adb folder, press [shift] + [left click] and choose "open cmd window here" )

(SDX) Gathered ADB/Fastboot Commands Reference from other posts:
ADB & Fastboot Cmds 1-25-12.doc http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?o8hg11g7zw2cgo0

Note2: ADB & Fastboot filenames/commands have to EXACTLY match (cAsE too) the recovery filename.img file that is in the adb folder AND installed on the phone to work...
Ie
fastboot flash recovery command:
Type: fastboot flash recovery YourRecoveryFilename.img

Fastboot boot to recovery cmd:
Type: fastboot boot YourRecoveryFilename.img

ie: cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img ( RecoveryFilename.img )or just copy & paste the full filename vs typing.
(XDA) Attn1's [Info] After Revolutionary: install Clockworkmod, root & more: (Su 3.0 zip also)

UPDATE 2-1-12:
Here's the latest: recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.2-shooter.img (USB Mounting/charging don't work yet, everything else works.)

Scenario 1 – Load CWM 5 Recovery via fastboot (started from android OS)

Scenario 5 – Load Qnhoang's Rom & Kernel (QRS-Beta3.0.zip) using FlashImage & CWM Recovery 4.0.1.4
http://forum.sdx-developers.com/?topic=18230.0 Note: I renamed/shortened the zip filename.

[from JoeyKrim's directions]
HTC Unlock - Hboot 1.5 Users Guide for ROMs with a Kernel (boot.img file):
1) Unlock using HTC method for Hboot 1.5 users
2) Load this application, Flash Image GUI, onto the device.
3) Download ROM .zip file to the sdcard on the device ( /sdcard/sdx/QRS-Beta3.0.zip ).
4) Open up Flash Image GUI, select Browse and select the ROM .zip file, downloaded to /sdcard in the previous step.
5) Flash Image GUI will provide a warning, reminding that the ROM .zip file will *need* to be flashed in the custom recovery afterward.
6) Flash Image GUI will index the full ROM .zip file searching for the kernel and kernel modules. Once located, the Flash Image button should be enabled.
7) Select the Flash Image button and Flash Image GUI will load the kernel modules and kernel from inside the ROM zip file. [F.I. said successful]
skipped - 8 ) Once completed, turn off the device. (Assuming you've already loaded a custom recovery)
skipped - 9) Hold volume down + power to boot into the bootloader. Select recovery.

NEW - 8 ) Once completed, got a prompt to "reboot recovery" and selected that option vs. power down & rebooting to enter recovery (cwm 4.0.1.4)

NEW - 8.5) (phone enters “Revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4)
Wipe : data, (cache, Dalvik cache, android_secure)
Mounts & Storage … Format: /system

9) Inside the custom recovery, load/flash the ROM zip file "QRS-Beta3.0.zip" . (CWM 4.0.1.4 shows competed).
10) Reboot to normal Android mode and all should work including Wifi!

Outcome: Phone rebooted and every thing loaded correctly.

Just a note: You can add the word "recovery" to the any recovery image filename ( recovery-cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img ) and should be able to flash it from android with Jk's FlashImage app and skip flashing it with fastboot. You can then boot to the recovery (with quickboot or with phone off.. PWR + Vol DN) and flash the SU zip from recovery. But, you will have issues restoring backups if you don't enter recovery via fastboot cmd).
