Unrevoked 3 program get”s stuck at "Waiting for root...

Unrevoked 3 program gets stuck at "Waiting for root...”

I have been trying to root my device for last 3 days .I have done enough research and gone through various forms .

Following the guide successfully got my device S-OFF using Revolutionary .

In step 2 : according to guide downloaded and tried

“RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.2_R_Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35.15.31_release_130814_signed_2”

Got stucked with non-working touchscreen.

Again downloaded and tried “RUU_Buzz_Froyo_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.24.707.1_Radio_13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_161113_signed”

Now touchscreen is working but it is showing android 2.2.1 again .So what's the point of downgrading ?

Run Unrevoked and it is unable to gaining root.

It shows :

Running preboot seq….

Waiting for reboot…..

Running root…

Waiting for root…..( I have waited for 20 mints but it keeps saying this)

[ USB debugging is enabled

Usb drivers are installed

Android Bootloader Interface is listed under Android Phone. ]

After all this mind boggling i have reached here :

Android 2.2.1

Revolutionary

BUZZ PVT SHIP S-OFF

HBOOT-6.01.1002

MI CROP-0622

RADIO 3.35.20.10

Should I use different version of unrevoked ? 3.31 ? here..( http://theunlockr.com/2010/09/20/how-to-root-the-htc-desire-unrevoked-method/ )

But again in guide “androidybloidy” says in step 3 :”Download the test version of unrevoked (here). Let me repeat, DO NOT USE UNREVOKED 3.32 as it will lead to CID errors or to be precise this error

"Validation error, backup CID is missing".”

What to do now ? Do I need to downgrade to 2.1 éclair to use revoked ? Do I need to download Éclair RUU for India ? If “yes” where can I get the download link ? Some forums say I don’t need to if I have already got S-OFF.I am totally lost.

Now I feel like tearing my hair out.:confused:

Any ideas ? How can get around it? :confused:

Any help would be appreciated.Thanks in advance.

I wanted to try the method suggested by “3xeno” on #83

http://joel5121.blogspot.com/2011/06/wildfire-22-root-tutorial.html

but under “clockwork recovery” the link to “fastboot tool “ redirects to http://htcdev.com/ and there is no tool like “fastboot tool” on that page.Again the download link to “recovery for wildfire”in step 4 is broken.

What should I do ?

Should I follow this ? : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1130044

Is there a way out ?:confused:
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
You can get the Fastboot Tools attached in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=14693680

(Win Tools - Windows. Linux Tools - Linux)

Recoveries can be downloaded here:

http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/

(Look for Clockwork-<version_no>-Buzz.img)

BTW, if you selected Yes to install Clockworkmod Recovery in Revolutionary Tool, there is no need to do this step. In that case, just follow "Rooting Your Phone" on Joel's Page.
[Wildfire General] optimusodd:
okey ,thanks for the links .successfully downloaded the "fastboot tool" and the "recovery for wildfire" but the problem is i am not able to extract the recovery img from zip.

i have tried winzip,7zip,winRAR.

they are showing following ERRORS :

winzip :Error:Winzip only supports IMG files that are in the ISO format

winRAR : The archive is either in unknown format or damaged

7zip : Can not open file as archive

any idea ?

one more thing :

what do you think abt this ?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1112971

which recover should i use ? this one or the one you suggested ?

unable to unzip even this one.
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
Simply download the IMG File from that site (download.clockworkmod.com) and use it as-is. Don't unzip/unrar.
[Wildfire General] optimusodd:
Copied the fastboot file to the "Revolutionary" folder.

Copied the folder to drive C.

Renamed the folder to "wildfire".

Downloaded the recovery for Wildfire.

Renamed it to "wildfire.img" and copied to the "Revolutionary" folder.

Opened command prompt.Ran the command.

It says "can't load the image".

???
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
Don't copy fastboot files to any other folder. Create a folder called fastboot under C:\. Now, paste the 4 files in the fastboot tools you downloaded to this folder. (They should not be under any sub folder. i.e. - When you open the fastboot folder, you should see the 4 files you had in the attachment)

Now paste the CWM Recovery IMG file in this folder as well. So it will have 5 files now.

Now, turn off your phone, connect it to your PC, turn on in HBOOT Mode, let it scan for the PC49IMG Files, then Press the Power Key on the option called "Fastboot".

Now open Command Prompt (Start > Run > cmd), type the following, one after another (Enter key after every line)

- cd\

- cd fastboot

- fastboot flash recovery wildfire.img
[Wildfire General] optimusodd:
Still no success :(

Followed your instructions.

>Made "fastboot" folder.

>pasted the CWM Recovery IMG file in this folder and renamed it"wildfire.img"

Now there are 5 files in that folder :

adb

AdbWinApi.dll

AdbWinUsbApi.dll

fastboot

wildfire.img

Phone can't run in HBOOT Mode while connected to PCso first turned the phone on in HBOOT,let it scan,connected to pc and pressed the key on "fastboot"

Ran the commands.

Still says : "error:cannot load "wildfire.img"

i am clueless:(

If you go through Joel's post ( http://joel5121.blogspot.com/2011/06/wildfire-22-root-tutorial.html ) you can figure out that the "recovery for Wildfire" is an ISO (image 2).

While in my case i can't extract the "recovery zip":confused:

i don't understand how did he get the "disk image file" by extracting the zip.

[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
I think your renaming is messing something. Try it once more without renaming the IMG file you are downloading (Sure, the command will be longer). Also, your IMG files are associated with WinZip because when installing WinZip, you must have ticked all the file extensions to be associated with it. You can de-associate IMG files from WinZip by opening the main WinZip executable, going to Settings and changing the File Associations again.

Hi,

First i would like to thank for a superb guide.

Recently i changed my mother board and i tried to root using the above guide. Gold card creation was sucessful. While getting beta key i used my new serial no which was Not in HTXXETDXXXXX format. It is MBXXXPYXXXXX. Then while running revolutionary step my memory Card got corrupted and revolutionary got failed.

Now my mobile is so slow. Is there any resolution for above prob?

Can i root my buzz with serial no with format MBXXXPYXXXXX??? Please advice guys...

Regards,

Naren.
[Wildfire General] optimusodd:
Ah, at last, halfway to paradise :)

Finally installed ClockworkMod recovery.

Winzip was the culprit.Actually it was showing the .img file as .zip.I changed the file associations,copied the recovery image to "fastboot" folder.Didn't play with the rename thing, just copied the name of the file to cmd.:)

Thank you,I am gonna root my device now.will let you know :)
[Wildfire General] optimusodd:
Solved

Thanks to 3xeno .Ah ,finally ,found paradise.:D Successfully rooted my device and installed CyanogenMod 7.

Format the card to FAT32 file system and create the Gold card once again.

Run revolutionary once again.

If there is no success try a different memory card.

Hope that will help.

[Wildfire General] miramix:

You really don't have to go via the unrevoked step. Just use fastboot to flash the recovery image, for example, "fastboot flash recovery clockworkmod.img"

Registered to thank you for this great guide :)

I had a few issues, most to do with my own ignorance...

My biggest problem was creating the GoldCard, using the original 2Gb Kingston. I must have tried 15-20 times, tried several other methods nothing would work. I finally switched it for a SanDisk 2Gb card that was in an old R4 card from my son's Nintendo DS and like magic it worked flawlessly!

So, thank you :)

Hi,

Touch screen is not working after Downgrading from Android 2.2.1 Froyo to Android 2.1 Éclair its showing HBoot version as 6.01.1002...Please help
[Wildfire General] jacktyler1807:
That HBOOT version usually means you already have S-OFFed the device, meaning that you don't have to flash 2.1 to root, just a .zip from CWM

About that problem - many people have had that problem, there is a fix about, search around. Try reflashing the ROM (if you are S-Off which according to HBOOT you are, you can do that via CWM).

[Wildfire General] carnageboy:
Thanks !

:D:D:D:D I got my Wildfire S-off with an XTC clip nearly a year ago, and I gave up trying to flash roms/get perma root because I was unable to use the Unrevoked method (wrong hboot).

I followed this Tutorial last week, and on reboot after flashing/downgrading with old stock rom, my fones touch screen didnt work. I thought I had bricked it!:eek: (Its east to fix, just flash another stock RUU:D)

So I decided to READ LOTS OF TUTORIALS AND WATCH VIDEOS, AND READ MORE TUTORIALS. And finally, I felt comfortable enough to kinda do it my own way as I all ready had S-OFF. But it was this tutorial that showed me the way.

Downgrading the misc partition was the bit that I missed almost a year ago:rolleyes::rolleyes:. Now with that little batch script and the fabulous and wonderful "revlutionary" tool (Props AlphaRev and unrevoked for freeing the 'Droid!) im running CGM 7, CWM (revolution funky blue version!) and Im happy as Larry!

So, by READING, BEING PATIENT, WATCHING SOME VIDEOS, READING SOME MORE, and EXPERIMENTING, I was able to "break" my fone, fix it, then flash it TWICE - and end up with a rooted fone and the knowledge and confidence to do it all again if needed.

Thanks, Im in love with my Wildfire again ! :D

any help would be much appreciated :(
[Wildfire General] :
Wildfires are unable to use flash player 10.1. The best option for streaming is to download Opera Mobile browser from market place as well as any video player that supports streaming. When in Opera mobile tap on the download link of your choice and a screen will pop up asking you which method you would like to use to view the video or mp3. Opera mobile means download and the video player would mean stream.
