I've been trying to figure this out all night searching all over the place & even trying to open this damn thing up! Here goes...

HOW DO YOU GET AN SD CARD IN THE HTC VIEW? WHAT AM I MISSING (besides a brain right now?!?!?!)

Your post does NOT belong here at all.

But because I am a nice guy in general and in a good mood today in particular, here:

Method 1 doesn't seem to be working for me, so maybe I'm missing something. I put the hboot-update.zip on my SDcard and tried to install it from Recovery, which resulted in an "Installation aborted." message. What am I doing wrong?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
actually you said you copied the hboot-update.zip? Make sure its named PG41IMG.zip

also you said you tried to install FROM recovery?

You restart your device (volume+power) it will go into the bootloader and it will scan your sd card and pop up and say do you want to update. You never go through recovery.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] mmmatches:
Okay, so I need to rename hboot-update.zip to PG41IMG.zip?

Edit: that did it - thanks!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
yep no prob

Maybe I did it wrong but I thought that I would update the boot loader before upgrading to HC. After updating the boot loader I now have a soft brick (HTC screen). I know how to fix it but should this have occured? Thanks.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
If you have the 6.14.5556 hboot now, just boot the view to fastboot mode and proceed with whatever upgrade method you were going to use. The RUU (windows) method will quite happily run from fastboot mode.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] str8barre:
Thanks to everyone who assisted all those who had questions. I myself am not to familiar with Android DEV. Reading through all these post before attempting this assured me it would work. It more than worked. I love this device all over again. So thank you globatron and all the others who you responded to the fellow new guys on here....
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] geebee1932:
Thanks so much. I did have to remove the SD card so the system would ignore the update. I appreciate you help and dedication. Happy New Year to all.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] caseyatbt:
I have HBOOT 6.13.1002 and am running clevernamehere Gingerbread. From what I understand after alot of reading is that once I commit to HC, my current nandroid backup won't be able to be restored.

I think I am ready to move to HC, but I really don't want to mess things up. My guess is that I need to run the GB RUU to start the process. But, I want to make sure that is the right first step. Will this RUU remove my current Revolutionary root?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Correct, you will have to downgrade to if you decide to use your old backup.

You don't need to run any official RUU, just follow the steps in post 1.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] caseyatbt:
Thanks, one more question. I already have HTCDriver3.0.0.013 installed. If I uninstall it and install 3.0.0.007 will I have any problems from anything left over from the uninstall?

EDIT: I decided to use the alternative method.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] krishnaprasad:
Upgrade went smooth.

Thankyou very much globatron. My EVO VIEW is now at HC.

I don't have any knowledge on Android and RUU. Started with bit confusion and fear. Ended successfully.

To others who are like me thinking how to upgrade to Honeycomb, once we have the prerequisites mentioned by globatron, and your VIEW on Gingerbread, just follow the steps mentioned in the first post (by globatron), this will move your VIEW to Honeycomb.

you rockz, globatron.

Thanks,

Globatron

my view HBOOT-6.13.1002 system-GB

want to upgrade to HC,do i need to upgrade hboot 6.13.1002 to 6.15.5556first.According to post1,if the hboot is 6.15.5555,must upgrade to 6.15.5556.In Hboot 6.13.1002,can i use the same method to upgrade to hboot 6.15.5556.

**Update Instructions**

Use these instructions if you currently have hboot 6.14.5555 - Your data should be preserved but take a backup first just in case.

Method 1

1.Download this file MD5=20fd6e7546ac2fc422c5a9a5b366f77c

2.Copy the file to the root of your external SDCARD

3.Boot your view bootloader, it will detect the PG41IMG.zip file and ask you to confirm update, confirm the update
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
No you don't need to upgrade first. The upgrade process will give you the correct hboot.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jamesxuster:
thanks,according to your replay,I can run the RUU_Express_B02 directory/Double-click ARUWizard.exe in Hboot 6.13.1002,after finish,the RUU upgrade process will give me the Hboot 6.15.5556?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] krishnaprasad:
jamesxuster,

I have to check mine what HBoot it upgraded to in HC.

If your wish is to move to HC, then just use the RUU that you mentioned (obviously globatran provided one) and it takes care of all. Then do the "post install" steps as well. Don't bother about HBoot (provided your's is already S-OFF while it is Gingerbread).

-KP
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] JCatman:
Read as many posts as possible in this thread. Is it correct to say that if we were s-on/nonrooted GB and took the HC upgrade there is still not solution to get s-off or root in this scenario??
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
There is a way, I'm walking someone through it right now
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] @daryll:
OUTSTANDING POST. Very comprehensive and easy to follow. Thanks for getting me on Honeycomb and again for getting me back on Gingerbread!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
No direct method, but I have a confirmed working downgrade to GB that does not requires HTC unlocking. That will allow for S-OFF upgrade back to honeycomb.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
took care of it :-)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] JCatman:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] krishnaprasad:
Hi globatron,

My VIEW is on HC now using your approach. I followed the phone app enable steps by changing build.prop as below

ro.ril.reject.cs.ss.enabled=0

ro.ril.reject.mo.ussd.enabled=0

ro.phone.function=1

ro.bt.profiles	= 4270403

service.brcm.bt.ag_supported = 1

I have got the phone app visible. I am in India. I have couple of issues with this.

1. The dialer is not showing any call button if I type the number that is not in the contact/people list.

2. For existing contacts, I could dial out (though nothing happens as I need to get my phone registered with one of CDMA operators here). Issue is I see "Wrong!" image/text with yellow background on both sides of "End Call" (at bottom), where on top of them, I see the keyboard icon on left and history icon on right.

3. Call's to customer care numbers is connecting (staying in a call for a minute), but I am not able to hear any sound in speaker ON/OFF modes as well as headset mode.

I saw your other post saying phone app working in VIEW. Could you help me please?

The same issue appeared when my VIEW was on GB :(

Thanks,

KP
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
This is not on topic in this thread in fact I specifically said there was to be no discussion of Honeybcomb rom behavior in this thread. Also I never said in any of my threads that phone was working on any version of the view. That information was kindly offered by another member in a sticky thread. If the view ROM is like the flyer ROM then phone functionality will not work in Honeycomb.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:

Hello, I have been following this thread for a while and I was trying to update the view from rooted GB to HC. I was updating fine using globatron method until it hits 70% and everything stopped. I waited around for about an hour and nothing changed so I decided to unplug device from PC and see if it worked...Now I can't go into recovery and when I press the power button I see a dark screen with HTC in the middle and at the four corners there's a triangle with exclamation point. I don't know what went wrong.

Can anyone explain to me if there's a way to reverse this? It will be much appreciated.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
ok people not people to be an ass but in my forum at the bottom of my 1st post I wrote answers to specific problems, in this case I wrote

1. RUN option 4 on my V2.0 tool

Instead of bugging globatron, use that method...saves effort and time (besides download time)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] vivellame:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Well yes, that's better, but if someone does end up here on stock hboot even though they shouldn't, unlock should still be a last resort, there are other options before resorting to that.

I'm a noob to the Android. After the Revolutionary S-OFF steps,

boot into the bootloader, it shows me that the device is S-OFF. followed all 6 steps and running honeycomb smoothly.

However it couldn't reboot to recovery; power & Vol - doesn't work!

It only goes to normal boot. Can't proceed to postinstall step 7 & 8.

Where am I now? Is it rooted ? How I can flash the superuser.zip?

Forgive my idiocy. But I have Hboot 6.13.1002 and still on stock gingerbread w/ s-off using the revolutionary.

If I just want to want to have a s-off, rooted HC, I just need install RUU_Express_B02_RAW from fastboot then go in recovery and install super user right?

I'm asking since I was wondering if I need to find the upgrade to a newer HBOOT. Since the pre-amble says you have to have a newer HBOOT than 6.14.5555?

Update: I just went ahead and did it... guess i was just being too overly cautious...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
Correct

No it doesn't. It says that

if

you have hboot 6.14.5555

then

you need to upgrade to 6.14.5556. You don't and won't have 6.14.5555.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] robpet2:

I just bought a View for my wife and it came with HC on it (and Hboot 1.14). I already have a view with GB and find it to be much easier to navigate (maybe I'm just used to it).

I've unlocked with HTC method, loaded SuperUser, but obviously still have S-ON. I've looked around at the posts, but can't seem to find anything that shows a way to gain S-OFF and downgrade to GB. I'm new to this world, but can follow directions and experiment if somebody has something for me to try.

Thanks in advance for any info...even if it's a definitive no at this time.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:
You do it the other way around. Downgrade to GB then get S-OFF, there are two procedures and one tool that allow you to accomplish downgrade and revolutionary is used to S-OFF.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] copperdawgnc:
Will honeycomb & gingerbread be able to install from the same recovery or will we always need to up/downgrade?

I have not had up/downgrade for any of my other android devices.

how to check hboot version and wheather you have s-off or not

Hi! I am sorry for my noob question but I dont have so much time to go and do research in different posts. So my question is how do you check hboot version and wheather you have s-off or not. I did s-off before and then installed stock ROM again. Then I tried to update my view to HC and got brick. When I tried to unbrick it I did lots of different stuff so now I am not sure what I have. But the thing I know is it is stock ROM.

Yeah...I can get into CWM from the bootloader. I'd recommend listening to globatron, he's the wizard. Near the bottom of the OP, there are instructions to upgrade your hboot to 6.14.5556. Do that, then flash CWM again. Good luck.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] globatron:

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] elrayray:
Awesome...I was there, now it's broken again.

I tried restoring my my apps via Titanium Backup and then it wouldn't boot to OS. Tried running the RUU (B02) with no luck. Came up with the great(?) idea of putting PG41IMG.zip from the OP on my SD card to see if reflashing hboot would help. Now, I can't get to OS, recovery, or fastboot because whenever I enter the bootloader, it asks if I want to do the upgrade. If I say "no," the only option is to reboot.

*Edit* Another embarrassingly simple fix...I removed my SD card, booted into fastboot and I am running the RUU presently. I'm a little slow sometimes. :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Davanator:
After successful upgrade delete the PG41IMG.zip file from the ext. sdcard (or wherever you put it) then enter bootloader.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] rbebber:
So, if i titanium backup everything, in gb, i should be able to restore in hc?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] bsoplinger:
I have two questions, one of which I'm sure belongs on this thread...

I messed up my new View and need to restore back to a "factory" type state. I figured I'd just flash the RUU file from the first post. Question 1a: Will that put me back to "factory?" Question 1b: When I did that the first flash seemed to work all the way through instead of need to flash twice like the initial update I did 2 weeks ago. Was what I saw ok, that only 1 flash was good?

This one is related to why I wanted to re-flash and may not belong here, just point me to a good place to post. I had used an XDA developed tool to remove the QIC (can't think of acronym now, the data that gets collected and sent back) and it got my View into this state where it would seem to boot correctly but then had troubles connecting to my router and would reboot on its own after about 5 minutes. Any idea what went wrong and will re-flashing the RUU make it all better?

It seems there's an issue in the build where HC flips the X & Y in the accelerometer. I tried playing GT Racing and it's messed up due to the accelerometer. Anyone else get this or is there a fix?

Edit: I'm not sure if it's necessarily an issue with HC, because the landscape and portrait mode in the OS itself is obviously fine, maybe it's more of an incompatibility. Other users seem to experience the same thing with different games as well.

I know that there's no one posted regarding this before because I did a search.

Do you know what should I do from here? Should I follow the commands listed in the linux section?

Thank you!

Just want to clarify how I got to this point:

I upgraded to hboot 6.14.5556 as it says in the instructions. But previously I was on hboot 6.13. I was not on 6.14.5555.

After upgrading, I boot into hboot then ran ARUWizard, and that was the response I got.

I am also unable to downgrade back to hboot 6.13 and selecting recovery just brings me to the HTC white screen and gets stuck.
