[Tool][Vodafone+Unbranded!]One & Only easy + working downgrade for revolutionary
- Thread starter Flashmaniac
- Start date
Never mind, got it to work with bit of hard work. Thanks for the file though, couldn't find the stock rom since many days, If I had a good stock rom I would have been able to s-off much earlier.
The links in many posts don't work, it took me almost two weeks to find a working rom, that was in your zip.
So I should say THANKS A LOT dude.
so, new evo 3d GSM unbranded, hboot 1.49.0018 - this will work ok right?
unlock with htcdev.com and then run the tools?
just taking ages to download -.-

take the minus mirror - should be faster.
no, you also need to be prerooted, flash a custom ROM after unlocking.
then you can run step1. No errors on step1? then run step2.
unlock from htcdev.com
flash custom recovery
flash root
then run step1 + step2 then...?
Yes it should work fine, just try to find out the cid of your device. you can do that by downloading a market tool or by running the command fastboot oem readcid or fastboot getvar cid in the command prompt adb folder
c:\adb>fastboot oem readcid
or
c:\adb>fastboot getvar cid
either of these commands will show you the cid of your device, if your cid is listed in this thread in the first post, you should be able to downgrade.
Even if not listed you can try, but I can not guarantee the results.
1. Unlock HTCDEV way.
2. Flash CWM recovery(reliable).
3. Flash a fully rooted custom ROM like LeeDroid.
4. Download the tool and follow the steps 1 and 2.
5. Reboot.
6. S-off Revolutionary way(Visit http://revolutionary.io
7. Reboot your device.
7. Flash the ROM of your choice and KERNEL of your choice.
8. Reboot.

you forgot to S-OFF between 5 and 6
Sorry editing now.
On duty, so couldn't concentrate
step 1:
hmmm do i run this from fastboot? couldnt see anything to say where so ran it when booted into android...
Code:
Press enter to start.
remounting
remount failed: Operation not permitted
pushing new misc partition back to android
dd: can't open '/dev/block/mmcblk0p31': Permission denied
done
rebootinghmmm do i run this from fastboot? couldnt see anything to say where so ran it when booted into android...

No, this has to be done in the adb shell. Before that, your device has to be completely rooted and should be unlocked. Once you push this mmcblk0p31 back to dev/block/ you need to write the new cid in fastboot (fastboot oem writecid HTC__001) and then re-lock your device bootloader.
You can also try adb with root permissions, there is command line which enables root permissions in adb shell.
Let me know if you have any other difficulties.
Seeing the difficulties faced by everyone, I am planning to start a new thread.
Will start one if get any requests.

that output was from running step1.exe - think it hates me
cid is already correct - and unlocked and rooted

In that case unlock your device again in fastboot,
c:\android>fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin and hit enter
this will unlock your device again and you will get the disclaimer, accept and reboot, and then check debug mode is enabled in settings --> applications -->development -->USB debugging.
and try to run step 1 again.
copied it manually (the step 1 bit) (saw a post a page or two back) and that seemed to help - then ran step2 fine
would be good to get the first post updated or another guide to show workarounds like that I thinks

59THIS DOES ONLY WORK ON GINGERBREAD AND ON A BOOTLOADER VERSION <=1.49.x18
Disclaimer: You do that because you want it. Noone forces you to do that. Problems always can be solved, I will help as much as I can.
NEW
you can now watch a video where you see how to do it. But quality, sorry I have no good camera.
This will downgrade your hboot to 1.49.0007
If you is branded by any other carrier then vodafone, this won't work. (Unbranded Device's too)
Why is that so? Because it is not possible til now to debrand your device.
I have tried plenty things with some friends, sadly no luck at all.
CID changing does not work for branded devices, if there is not more than one RUU.
Unbranded:
This Tool will work, if your device has one of the following CID's.
Code:cidnum: HTC__001 cidnum: HTC__032 cidnum: HTC__A07 cidnum: HTC__102 cidnum: HTC__304 cidnum: HTC__203 cidnum: HTC__E11 cidnum: HTC__N34 cidnum: HTC__405 cidnum: HTC__Y13 cidnum: HTC__016 cidnum: HTC__J15
Vodafone Branded:
This Tool will work, if your device has one of the following CID's.
Code:cidnum: VODAP001 cidnum: VODAP102 cidnum: VODAPE17 cidnum: VODAP304 <[B]New[/B]> cidnum: VODAP120 cidnum: VODAP203
If your cid is not on the list, you cannot downgrade your device yet.
How to:
- Download this Tool for an unbranded device
- Download this Tool for a vodafone branded device
- Download this Tool for a vodafone branded device with CID VODAP120 OR VODAP203!
- RUN Step1.exe
- RUN Step2.exe
- RUN Step3.exe
It might stuck at the very end of the procedure.
Don't worry, it's okay. Just remove battery and reboot.
Please, if you are experience problems, describe everything you have done and I will try to help.
Have fun and enjoy your freedom.
Always remember; you are a noob on xda I am also one, so does not one feel attacked.
