install this recovery from fastboot:

The new bootloader will allow you to do that.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
No, it's the recovery mode charging that's the problem. Unplug usb or charger, hold power and vol down until the led goes out. Then boot to fastboot.

Flash this recovery: http://www.filesonic.com/file/1872062674/revolutionary-cwm-4.0.1.4-flyer.newhboot.img MD5 16fe327f70c3036af69c19ec93b87e44

i use gold card loading zip but it dont install

is there a possibility hboot downgrade with fastboot

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Viera, you need to be in RUU mode not fastboot mode to run an RUU:

fastboot oem rebootRUU
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Nothing at all when you try to boot?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ricwhic414:
absolutely nothing.

What new boot loader? I flashed it and when I selected recovery in hboot it just hung on HTC logo.

is it possible?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:

Westfire,

Thanks.

I am about to jump in with both feet. However, can you kindly look at the MD5 on my 3g, 32gb flyer, and tell me if I am okay to update to HC.

MD5 is: d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e

Thanks mate.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
ikingblack pretty sure I can fix you up this time. You still got teamviewer installed?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
MD5 of what?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] YOSEFE:
Westfire,

Yes I am on flyhigh 1.2, and s-off using revolutionary.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Then you're in the wrong thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1205050

MD5's are listed there.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Ikingblack, I misread your earlier post. No that's not the new bootloader it's a recovery image compatible with the new boot loader. If you flash it from fastboot you should be able to boot into recovery.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ricwhic414:
Does anyone else have any other ideas? Or should I take this in to Bestbuy and see if I can get something for it?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
ricwhic414,

Ok, I can tell you exactly what the problem is and how you would go about recovering, but I'm not sure if it viable for you.

What has happened is that you've let the battery go flat without having a compatible recovery. HTC devices use recovery to perform off mode charging.

The way to recover from this it to get power to the flyer for long enough to flash the new recovery, either by battery swapping or by finding another power source with the same voltage output and using that temporarily. Once you have the new recovery you'll be able to charge normally.

If you can find anyone (eg. electronics repair shop) with a stabilized DC power supply thy should be able to give you the temporary power needed. Either of these approaches do mean opening the device up and voiding warranty.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ricwhic414:
Well there is no way I can perform that task. I might head to bestbuy and see what they say. Thanks for your help guys.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] YOSEFE:
Sorry to be a bother. Your answer is too brief.

I mention flyhigh 1.2 to tell you on what custom ROM I generated the MD5. There is mention to check MD5 on here before venturing into updating HC.

The question is, should the MD5 on my flyer be the same as one of those on Paul's download files? Am I making myself clear? Or does it not matter what MD5 I have?

Please help me.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] aostl:
When I plug my flyer in to my laptop it doesn't recognize it at all. Any ideas why? It worked before because its rooted. Trying to install hc btw that's why I'm posting here
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Westfire:
You do make sense but you are looking at it wrong. You need to download Paul's files and check those md5 against what he has listed in his thread. It doesn't matter what ROM you are currently on.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
no, sorry; recovery results in a htc logo.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Scabes24:
What he means is you need to check the md5 of each of the downloads to ensure that they completed successfully. The only reason for this is to make sure your downloads didnt get corrupted in some way.

Mmmmmm.... hC, WiFi only, works great.

However, some of the instructions aren't Mac appropriate.

The terminal commands are slightly different.

Thanks OP!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Which recovery? The old GB revolutionary one or the new HC one?

If you answer in the next 10 minutes I'll help you out on TeamViewer, otherwise I'll be off to bed.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] AidenM:
hc one.

Thanks (button pushed).

Finally, (I hope). How do I execute the command "fastboot flash radio stock-hc-flyer-radio.img" in Fastboot usb mode?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Scabes24:
If you arent already in bootloader use "adb reboot bootloader" then once you see the fastboot menu on your device use "fastboot flash radio stock-hc-flyer-radio.img"

You basically answered your own question ;)

Hi,

I upgraded my flyer to HC.

But I have a big problem :(

WiFi does not work :(

When I turning WiFi on for a second I can see my access point and it show connecting.

And immediately after it the network disappeared :(

I tried to add WiFi network manually.

When I turning WiFi on its show excellent signal and after a second showing not in range :(

It worked fine on GB.

I tested it with another WiFi router and same results.

I tested with Stock ROM and FlyHoney one and same results again...

Please help me :(
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] clubtech:
Was anyone actually able to revert back from HC after installing using Paul's instructions?

I tried every possible way to revert back to the GB ROM i was coming from and it fails every single time:

1) trying to flash my identical RUU (to the one i was coming from before HC) and it fails under "header verification", the RUU uploads the file to the device but once it reaches the header verification process the screen on the phone becomes distorted and the process just hangs.

2) I tried to extract the ROM.zip and put it on the a goldcard and the the bootloader loads the file (PG41IMG.zip) and that's it...it simply exits.

3) i tried to flash the rom using fastboot flash zip rom3.zip and it fails with the error:

leak install

Ok Im just wondering if I should be worried because I installed hc on my Flyer everything works but my bootloader says unlocked s-on shouldn't it say unlocked s-off? If everybody else's says the same after the install could this be the problem not allowing us to roll back to gb
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] veria100:
same as mine

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Deerhunter48:
The best and most times only way for a rollback if you have root and S-OFF, is to make a nandroid backup before flashing a new ROM

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] YOSEFE:
When I copy and paste the command via adb, I get a long string of information about how to use adb. When I use the copy and paste of the string, it says that it is not a recognisable command.

I am on Windows 7, if that helps. Can you be so kind as to tell me exactly how to input: "fastboot flash radio stock-hc-flyer-radio.img"?

Thank you.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] nobnut:
Have you cd'd (changed) to the directory which contains fastboot before you try the command?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] BrumBrum74:
Do you have the file stock-hc-flyer-radio.img in same dir as fastboot?

The Flyer is in Fastboot usb mode?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Elim:
I also install it with Windows 7 and have no problems.

EDIT (new post):I read now the whole thread and think that the problem is, that you add "adb" to the command. This is wrong. "fastboot" is another tool in the android SDK and the commands haven't be send per adb but copy them directly in the windows command line.

If this istn't the case, maybe my old post helps you.

Older post:

The question is, how you install adb and fastboot.

The new Android SDK install them in different folders, older ones didn't work and copy them to another folder, will remove them normally from the PATH context. This means that you have to add the file extension ".exe" to the commands from the guide.

-> install the newest version off adb and fastboot

-> copy them and the AdbWinApi.dll file to the same folder where you copy all ROM files

-> call them with ".exe" or add the folder to the PATH environment variable
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] paulobrien:
You also need to flash the old hboot remember.

Remember this procedure is still considered ADVANCED and not necessarily suitable for general consumption at this time!

P
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Alastor_ru:
Paul, could you be so kind and describe step by step (even shortly) what need to do to downgrade from HC to GB?

I'll test it and will provide detailed description if needed.

I'm afraid, that without your advices I'll miss something and can brick my flyer

Thanks
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] foggy69:
Another willing victim/tester here :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] aostl:
I got my devicevto occasionally show up to my PC but still scary to try pushing stuff an all that, what do you think my chances of bricking are if I use as little advanced as possible, I.e. put things on SD and flash via cwm and hboot. Only plugging in for HTC unlock. Or might there be an easier way in the future
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] veria100:
Any idea? :(

What can I do?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Elim:
Why?

And no, you can flash radio, hboot, recovery only via USB from a computer. Only the ROM image can be flash via recovery but this is described so in the guide.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] aostl:
I think the flyer is wonky. For example. It doesn't like to reboot. It hangs on the white screen until I power down in fastboot and start it again. I got it to show up as a flyer last night by uninstalling HTC sync then reinstalling but at first it wouldn't even show as connected.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] aostl:
Also never done it on flyer but I flashed plenty of radios on devices via hboot. Just rename them. But your saying this wont work on flyer?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] paulobrien:
Have you wiped? Try reflashing the radio?

What should i do? i mis something....

FYI,

I've get my flyer s-off and already can use phone mode before do this
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] BrumBrum74:
Looks like you didn't read the guide properly unfortunately.

It says clearly this:

Do NOT under any circumstances run the RUU in it's entirety nor 'fastboot flash rom.zip' - this will make irreversible changes that you don't want!

-----------------------------

Really sorry to read you missed that point. Maybe globatron can help you.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] clubtech:
Me too.

i have tried every possible way to downgrade back to GB and was not successful.

I tried to RUU back the the ROM i was coming from. it fails on header verification.

tried goldcard, also failed.

Try fastboot flash zip method, also failed on signature application.

The only thing i didn't try is to dd the revolutionary hboot before trying to RUU back as i don't see it was a requirement in Paul's initial instructions.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] paulobrien:
I haven't downgraded myself. I see no reason why dd'ing the revolutionary hboot to p18 shouldn't work, but as I say, i've not tested it.

P
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] geek78:
I have tried : dd seems running but if you reboot to bootloader it is still the new one. Maybe to downgrade the bootloader we have to be s-off and not just unlocked
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] paulobrien:
Yeah, that's what i'm thinking too. I DID downgrade from the new bootloader using my old RUU though when I was messing around, so it is possible...?

P
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] clubtech:
Yea i tried several time, once the RUU is done pushing the files to the phone the fastboot screen on the phone is getting distorted (like rainbow colors) and the process hangs.

Step 11. navigate to the 'bootloader' menu then select 'recovery'

When Flyer is off. Hold Volume Down button and Power Button together for 15-20 secs to get bootloader menu. Wait a few secs for it to do some checks. Press Volume Down to choose Recovery.

I'm stuck on step 9... Any suggestions?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] nobnut:
A little more information will help people to help you. What are you 'stuck' with?

Do you have adb/fastboot installed? Is the radio.img in the correct folder? Are you in Bootloader?

Be careful, these steps are for people that know what they are doing, hence all of the warnings to the effect of "This process is recommended for experts only!". There is a strong possibility that you will permanently damage (brick) your device if you mess things up.

If you are not sure and need your device to work... don't flash.

If you know what you are doing, or don't care if your Flyer may become about as useful as a rectangular frisbee and not much more... carry on.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] adaimespechip:
Sorry, yes..

I've completed everything up to step 9, so yeah installed the revolutionary stuff and CWM is working.

What folder should the radio.img be in? I've added all of the required downloads from previous steps into the SD card..

Thanks!
