U SAID U STILL HAVE S-OFF OR NOT? IF YES, JUST FLASH THE RECOVERY IN FASTBOOT AS I SAID

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markb63:
yes i have s-off, i have googled the flash recovery and downloaded sdk and jdk java , is this correct .boot into fastboot . is there a tutorial on this thanks mark
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kumar_s:
where can I find recovery.img?

I had Alpharev S-off before I installed the official Gingerbread update on my Desire. Now, when I turn on my phone with volume down button pressed, and try to go into recovery, it shows an icon with a red mark on a black background.

When the phone starts up with volume down pressed, it shows the following info:

---Alpharev---

BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-OFF

BHOOT-6.93.1002

MICROP-031d

TOUCH PANEL - SYNW0101

RADIO-5.17.05.23

Based on your reply above, I should be able to flash recovery... but I am a little lost. I have Android Flasher as well as Android SDK tools on my computer.

I found clockwork img files through further searching... I tried both, version 2.5.0.7 and 3.0.0.5, but got the same result: "FAILED ...<status malformed <1 bytes>>". I had checked MD5 sums for the files before using them.

Many thanks!

WHAT do youbmean guys with

RECOVERY IN FASTBOOT?, do you need download skd android tools?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
U are on the right direction..just ensure u have the drivers installed do some research, i think u can find the drivers also on unrevoked site..search for hboot drivers

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backfromthestorm:
Make sure you are in fastboot on the phone (it should say fastboot usb under alpharev s off off pvt blah blah).. On your pc, type 'fastboot devices' in cmd. You should get your phone listed if it's connected right. Otherwise you won't be able to flash anything.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markb63:
well !! , i have downloaded all the software sdk etc.but still cant get adb followed all instructions changed path etc installed google drivers.my pc doesnt seem to recognise my fastboot in cmd . c:\ fast boot is not recognised as an internal or external command,operable programe or batch file ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markb63:
anybody with a lot more knowledge than me !! can you please give me a helping hand please thanks in advance mark
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backfromthestorm:
Yeah this is cos you need to direct your cmd to the directory of where your sdk tools folder is at. cd ;c: /sdk/tools or something like that... I'm not sure the exact line. Then type fastboot devices to check it's working. You'll get this sorted soon...! And it's fastboot.. Not fast boot. No space.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markb63:
cmd - ;c:\android-sdk-windows\tools;c:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools still it will not open anything ? confused.com
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zombie Dude:
So any word from Alpharev or Unrevoked about progress on rooting the new hboot?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markb63:
have also noticed that device manager is not showing phone as adb interface,i have android usb devices- my htc .have tried to update drivers etc,uninstalled drivers but when i plug usb back in it loads htc drivers ?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markb63:
right,for anybody who has had problems with adb loading drivers or device manager not seeing adb interface etc. do not put sdk in programe files,i put mine here-C:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools. cmd prompt C:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools\adb and it loads .... 8 f***ing hrs lmao .........
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backfromthestorm:
You don't want adb anyway, you want fast boot. And with me, the my htc drivers work fine. It's just directing the cmd prompt to the directory of the sdk folders your having trouble with I think. I'll mail you a good step by step in a bit. Make sure your sdk folder is in the root of c: for starters, it'll make things easier. Then, in command prompt, cd ;c:/whatever_your_sdk_folder_is_called/tools

Then start your phone in fastboot mode, and type fastboot devices
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backfromthestorm:
1. Name your sdk folder `android-sdk-windows`. Name the folder inside `tools`.

2. Extract folder to c:\

3. Open start menu, open `run`, type `cmd`.

4. You can run now commands in command prompt by typing "cd c:\android-sdk-windows\tools" hit return, then adb or fastboot etc

5. volume down on phone and power, takes you into fastboot. connect to pc. Fastboot usb shows up on bootscreen.

6. type fastboot devices to check it working. Is it working??
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kumar_s:
I can see my phone under fastboot devices. That is when I tried to flash clockwork recovery, two different versions, and I got a FAILED error for both. Is it possible to trouble shoot this error?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andQlimax:
Did u wrote fastboot flash recovery recovery.img? Did u put the file recovery.img in the same folder of ur pc when u was running the command? Its a valid recovery image (not a zip)?

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kumar_s:
Yes, I can confirm that I did all three. It was a img file. As I mentioned before, I have tried both 2.5.0.7 and 3.0.0.5 versions. Before flashing them, I had checked their MD5 numbers too to be sure. I got the same error on both occasions, "status malformed <1 bytes> ".
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kumar_s:
I do have the drivers installed... I believe you are referring to the drivers mentioned in this thread...

Any other ideas about what's going on?

BUT

no way I could flash custom MTD partition through fastboot. I get error

Still looking for solution...

Edit: stupid me, I was trying fastboot commands in hboot mode :D. the guy with "status malformed" error i think he made the same mistake. i was able to flash cm7 r2 partition table, but could not flash cm7 old (image bypassed said him...). now installing latest IC stable CM7 edition and so far seems to be ok.

Indeed, all back to normal. Alpharev and Unrevoked saved my life
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backfromthestorm:
Make sure your in fast boot. When you turn your phone on the first screen is the boot loader, scroll down to fastboot and click on that, then type the command.

'' But if you turn S-OFF does that mean you can root it, or can we root the 2.3 desire beforethe S-OFF or do we need to turn S-OFF and then flash back to 2.2 and then root and then install new ROMS ''
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] filipd:
You can't root Gingerbread :/ I would suggest you getting another ROM :rolleyes:

Because , you need to mount r/w to get root. The stock ROM can't mount. There is a way to mount r/w stock using temproot , but gingerbread updates hboot and makes it unpossible.

So the best way is to install clockwork and get some cool ROM. I just downloaded InsertCoin and it rocks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tally114:
So what 2.3 users need to do is turn S-OFF & install clockworkmod and then install a rom and then root?

And what r featured?
[Nexus S General] tehgeekguy:
This is literally, word for word, copy/pasted from the website he linked to in the OP, and his response to your first question...

I am pleased to announce that I am now supporting the Nexus S 4G as well as the Droid. This ROM will be released alongside my Droid build titled "GPA17". Until then you can find it in "nightly" form in the following directory: http://wonderly.com/bb/CRESPO4G/ROM/BETA/ (choose the latest file)

Some features include but are not limited to:

180 degree rotation

Overclockable to 1.4GHz

Voodoo support

Updated wifi driver

CPU Toolkit

FLAC audio support

Native 3G tethering

Ad-hoc network support

Facebook sync

Reboot option

Modified widget picker

There are also many performance tweaks and bug fixes which you can find change by change on my github. For those of you who run CyanogenMod, now that I support this device I have began submitting patches to help out. In the future I plan on supporting the other Nexus S variants (T-Mobile & AT&T) as well.

Recommendations:

Upon initial install of this ROM, please wipe data and cache. When a new build becomes available, you will only need to wipe dalvik cache. For the best experience, stick with the kernel provided in my build, I assure you it performs very well. If you are interested in saving tons of battery life, downclock to 800MHz in the CPU Toolkit, you will see little to no difference in performance.

Sorry this post does not read well, I am sick at the moment and not in the proper mindset to write.

I think you know that is not why the GPL exists. Derp.
[Nexus S General] matt2053:
Hi Pete, some people get really defensive when they see GPL requests. It's a strange phenomenon. I think alot of the drama gets started because people think when they see a request for source code that the developer is being attacked or accused of some wrong-doing which typically IS NOT the case, and certainly wasn't the case here!

Anyway, by making your source public, you not only contribute to the community with code but also by forwarding the ideals that the open-source movement is founded on and help ensure the future of projects like Linux/Android, so thanks!!!

[Nexus S General] jake.corey.jacobs:
No offense, but why are you all asking this developer to put things into his completed ROM? The whole point of different roms is because they are different. Pete didn't ask for input on what he should put in it, just offering up what has made. His source is available, try you're hands at adding in what you want.

Pete, the ROM is amazing bro. Look forward to any updates you may put out.

This is the best and most stable ROM, hands down, but the battery life isn't that great.

I'm using 100/800 with Interactive, and can only run a full day, when on Oxygen I got 2 to 3 days. Maybe it's because of the major undervolting my phone can handle.

Best rom by a mile

I've been using this rom for a week or so, and for me it's not even a doubt. This is by far the best rom I've used. No chopping, no lag, no reboots. Everything is so fast, it feels like I have a new phone. It's that feeling you have when you've just installed a new rom and haven't installed any apps yet. Except I've installed all my usual apps and I've been running the rom for a week without as much as a little hickup.

Great work, Peter. I hope you still have the time to update it now and then. I'll be sticking with this one for a long time.
