There is no rom.zip file in C:\Temp or a map with that file after running step 5??

5. Run RUU and wait to appear Android rom update utility screen.
6. Go to Temp directory on C drive on your computer and find folder that RUU extracted in it.

Hi,
On temp directory at C drive, to find folder that RUU extracted in it, please search these text : "adb.exe" or "rom.zip"

Temp Directory Is not C:\Temp ! For example It is on "C:\Users\Your User Name\AppData\Local\Temp" for WIN7 or VISTA. And for WIN XP It is "C:\Documents and Settings\Your User Name\Local Settings\Temp"

Find It ?

I did find the rom.zip. Does your first version on page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1550397 work or is this V2 better?

Ok, I have created a virtual machine, so now seem to works, but:

Checking misc partition.
/data/local/mtd0.img: OK
CID retrieved: HTC__405
Modifying misc partition image.
/data/local/fixmtd0.sh: cannot create /sdcard/mtd0bak.img: read-only file system

Flashing misc partition... Flash complete.
If any error occurred here, press ctrl-c and run this utility again.

I run this 2 times but the problem is still present... what can I do?

 

[corno77]

Sorry.... now everything is working!

 

[netmsm]

Is Your problem solved ?

GUYS IF THE DOWNGRADE DOESNT WORK THEN FIRST PUT IN YOUR USB CABLE FOR HTC AND PLUG IN AS HARD DRIVE, THEN FORMAT YOUR PHONE TO FAT32 THEN CREATE GOLDCARD THEN PUT IN THE ROM FILE INSIDE YOUR PHONE AND GO TO BOOTLOADER AND FOLLOW ONSCREEN INSTRUCTIONS!

Press thanks if helped

Hi, My Friend
Your "PB99IMG.zip" file might be corrupted ! Or might be manipulation, So You must using the original file
Also may be Your SD-Card is damaged !
Please extract the PB99IMG.zip, if it extracted without ERROR OR Warning So Your SD-Card is healthy .
Otherwise if send ERROR during extracting the PB99IMG.zip, either file or sd-card is corrupted.
OK ?

Best;
