[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Instructions Part 1

This thread is not for discussing general Honeycomb problems so don't post here if it's not related to

running this procedure.

Important: Charge your Flyer fully before running this procedure ( see section: problems below)

This version is the release version of HoneyComb from HTC.

If you are on Honeycomb and got there by following other honeycomb install methods than the one in this thread then you MUST follow the steps in part 1.

If you are already S-OFF on gingerbread, or ran *this* procedure previously skip to Part 2.

You must be running a version of gingerbread supported by revolutionary

If you are not on an appropriate gingerbread version, eg. if you have upgraded to honeycomb then downgrade by using an appropriate RUU; to identify your RUU see: here

If you get the following error: "Main Version is older! Update Fail! Press <POWER> to reboot" the instructions are here for windows or here for Mac/Linux

Run revolutionary, there is no reason to install ClockWorkMod recovery at this point, say no when asked.

After following the steps above, you should be on a stock Gingerbread installation with revolutionary S-OFF.

Install the custom RUU

If you are running this procedure starting from Gingerbread the rom flash WILL fail first time, you must flash twice, if starting from honeycomb it might only require a single pass.

Method1: Using fastboot:

Get fastboot and adb tool for windows here, get Windows fastboot drivers here

Get Fastboot and adb for linux here

fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip <downloaded file name>
[I][COLOR=Blue]Flashing will fail with Error 90 first time due to hboot change[/COLOR][/I]
fastboot flash zip <downloaded file name>
[I][COLOR=Blue]The on screen indicator on the phone will not reach fully to the right end of the progress bar, this is ok[/COLOR][/I]
fastboot reboot

Method 2: Using bootloader - NOTE I strongly recommend using method 1.

Rename the downloaded file PG41IMG.zip

Transfer the file to the root of your SD card

Reboot to hboot, which will detect and install the update.

Note it will require two passes to complete the upgrade due to hboot change

If you used the full upgrade file (BIG download) you are finished, enjoy.

If you used the light image now restore your nandroid backup or flash your custom ROM now - then you are finished.

Problems

If you encounter problems after this procedure where your device does not boot properly (white screen with HTC logo) .

Power-off fully

and seek assistance from me. The reason for this is that you may have an invalid combination of hboot and recovery/boot images. In such a scenario a flyer will not charge when powered off. The reason for powering off at this point is to ensure that there is sufficient battery power remaining to fix the problem before you end up in an unrecoverable state. If the battery falls below 30% you will not be able to flash and I will not be able to help you. Do this by booting into fastboot mode then choosing power-down from the menu.
