[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
can u get on my irc help channel
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] dixie265:
Thanks again for your help, I wouldnt have worked it out for myself ;)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Paul22000:
I'm about to try this and wanted to ask before starting.

I have a 100% stock Honeycomb View. All I want is root.

So I need to do step 0 for revolutionary, install CWM, and then install Superuser?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
You have to downgrade to GB 1st, here are the instructions:

Run option 6 (if option 6 doesn't work for you run option 2)(option 2 requires htcdev unlock)

then

Run option 0 (to get s-off)

then

Run option 10 (to get root)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] eman3316@optonline.net:
I am currently s-off on HC. When I go to recovery I cannot flash anything from my SD card. It just says my sd card cannot be mounted. Is that because I might need to update my Recovery? I am on CWM 4.0.1.4.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
it is because you do not have a sdcard in the back of your device
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] eman3316@optonline.net:
Looks like my SD card was bad....Thanks!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
No problem
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] johnson9203:
hi kev,,,i was wandering if you have a sec,,i have have your multitool program, but i cant get my htc evo view 4g to flash another ROM ,,im still stuck on the white screen
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
could ya be just a tad bit more specific? Did u use my tool to downgrade to gb, are you s-off, which rom are you flashing, what have you tried to fix the problem so far?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] johnson9203:
you have helped me before to flash viper rom ,,and now i wanted to try out cypher,,i forgot how
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lionxheart:
A little Question

thank for the multitool dude, great work,

one question im a really noob on this of the root and other things

i wanna get just root or get superuser permission (option 10 i suposse).

The question is, if i follow the steps of the video tutorial, my htc evo view will be format and lost all the data ??

i asking because i read on the htc site that bootloader make that before root the device.

I have my htc with the official update of HC 3.2.1.

I dont know if have the S-OFF.

Al kind of info and suggestion are welcome.

Thank for the time :)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
u put the rom on your sdcard, go to recovery, clear cache and dalvik, flash cypherrom v1 then restart ur device, once booted go back to recovery, then clear cache and dalvik and flash cypherrom v1.1
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
The quick answer is yes, all you would have to do is run option 10 (BUT that's only if you are s-off)

Check to see if you are s-off in your bootloader, it should say s-off and it should be hboot 1.13.

If you have hboot 1.14 then you have to run option 6 (if option 6 doesn't work then htcdev unlock and run option 2)

Then run option 0

Then run option 10
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lionxheart:
Thank, but if i root the device, all data will be erase ??

like contacts, apps, and other things ?'
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
yes, everything would be
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] E.T.Heil:
Everything would be deleted, however, your contacts should be backed up to google and Google will have record of all apps that you have downloaded...so you can download them again

Oops - Need help restoring EVO View 4G

It is with great embarrassment that I write this post.

To make a long story short, I flashed the DeSensed-View HC 2.1 ROM without first doing an S-OFF. I now have no Wi-Fi support, presumably because the update couldn't flash the NAND.

My problem is compounded by the fact that my HBOOT version is 1.14.0005.

ClockworkMod Recovery is v5.8.1.5. No backup, unfortunately.

Any and all help would be appreciated. I've searched for factory images (I was running the OTA HC update) but haven't had any luck.

My ultimate goal is to get to yncconsulting's ICS CG ROM, but I'll settle for anything at the moment. I won't go into the details, but I've tried a number of things and can't get anything to work. I'm not as clueless as this makes me sound, so if you've got any ideas at all please send 'em my way.

Cheers,

Phred99
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
I truthfully have no idea how you flashed a custom rom without s-off. Best I can tell you is try to downgrade using option6 and if that doesnt work try option 2

then once downgraded do option 0, then upgrade with option 4 (i think or option 3) then u can flash any hc rom or "ics" rom
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jackdaburby:
cant access bootloader

hey i am trying to use your tool to go from gb s-off to hc , only problem is i cant get to my boot loader. I am flabbergasted... i have root and rom manager with cwm recovery5.8.1.5 flashed and i just don't know where to go from here> any help or guidance would be great.

Thanks you do rock sir!
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
shut off your device, you will see a "orange" light at the top of your device. When you see orange press volume down then power at the same time and hold until it boots up, it will boot to bootloader.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Phred99:
I did a factory unlock, then flashed CWM, then flashed the ROM.

Tried option 6, got a long way then got this error:

Rebooting into root.

/data/local/tacoroot.bin: line 29: /data/local.prop: Permission denied

reboot: Operation not permitted

/data/local/tacoroot.bin: line 31: break: only meaningful in a `for', `while', or `until' loop

[EDIT] Ran into some roadblocks but working on option 2. I'll get back to you tomorrow. In the meantime if you have any thoughts on option 6, let me know.

Thanks,

Phred99
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
wow...never seen that error before
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
ya try option 2 but if that doesnt work run option 8 ( to install the stock hc rom) and see if you can get it to boot the stock rom.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jackdaburby:
totally worked , but now i am getting a md5 message and it says file does not match adb and all of the other files. i have downloaded the tool multiple times and the patches also i have changed the file names. I must have skipped something and i just cant figure out what? please help.

ugh, is it bad i have hboot 6.13.1005?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
nope, with a 6.13 you are on GB S-OFF. Can you get on my irc channel? I have like 30 minutes
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] pradeeprox:
am havin a 3G flyer with s-off and on leedroid HC build

planning to downgrade to stock GB..

plz can u guide me
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] E.T.Heil:
This tool is for the HTC EVO VIEW 4G only. Tthe Flyer and the View, while essentially the same device are not compatible and neither I nor Kevin have owned a Flyer. My recommendation would be to try the Flyer Dev section. If we attempt to do this, there is a significant chance of bricking your device.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
I wish I could but I never messed with the flyer, it's a bit different than the view.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OmgitzFire:
What steps should I take In order to root it ? I'm on HC , relocked and hboot 1.14.005 s-on

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
option 6

if option 6 doesnt work then option 2 (but you need to htcdev unlock)

then option 0

then option 10
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OmgitzFire:
Thanks , I was wondering why it wasn't working , it was because I didn't follow the front page instructions Hah ..

After copying 10.1 patch into the same folder as v10 , basically I have to extract the readmes file and the other one then rename ?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
extract the "rar" update to the same folder as 10, overwrite any files it asks about then rename READMES to README and verifyMD5filesmain to verifyMD5files
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OmgitzFire:
I'm currently not on the computer I did that on but I recall those files being in a folder named 'zip' I think ?

Those files that I have to rename are in a rar format right ? if so I don't extract those ?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
I can't remember off the top of my head if they where zip or rars...been to long since i messed with my own tool lol
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OmgitzFire:
Hah thats ok

After a few hrs I finally downgraded to gb !! yay !! thanks man:good:

Now if I want to upgrade to HC , do I have to root it on GB first ? What steps do I have to take now ?

Because at the end I want HC and rooted :D
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
option 0, then option 4 (to upgrade to HC)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] OmgitzFire:
Okay great , would I have to run option 10 too after so it can be rooted or would it be rooted already ?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
option 0 s-off you

option 10 roots u

i have to give this a try later today to flash my tablet back to stock.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] tttuning:
so im on HC 3.2.1 (software 2.23.651.1) stock unrooted.....

I want to be rooted to flash ROMS....with this tool what do i need to do????I would like to flash a non-sense HC or ICS rom. Sorry i used to the easy unlock and root of the Galaxy Nexus.....

thanks
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
well off the top of my head i cant remember if 3.2.1 is HC or GB, but go to your bootloader and see if u have hboot 1.13 or 1.14

if you have 1.13 then run option 0 to get s-off

if you have 1.14 then run (in this order): option 6 (if option 6 doesnt work do option 2) then option 0
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] casmi:
3.2.1 is HC
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] robpet2:
I am on CypherRom-Final 1.0, and i am trying to go back to stock rom.

just making sure i am doing this right.

what are the steps ?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] E.T.Heil:
Well, there are two versions of stock...honeycomb or gingerbread. Do wipes like you were flashing a new ROM, factory data reset then choose the option to flash stock hc or GB
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] uncanny03gt:
Confused... Help!!

So, I just got a replacement Evo View today due to the screen falling out of the shell of the device. :crying: I previously had Revolutionary Root from GB Hboot 1.13 / S-Off / and Cypher HC Rom on old device and loved it. New device is factory HC / Locked (Grrr) / Hboot 1.14.005 / Radio 1.05.01.1006.

If I am understanding this new process right, I have to downgrade HC to GB, Revolutionary, Recovery, SU, Upgrade GB back to HC, and then flash rom :confused: but it can all be done from this tool. So, my question is... What are the proper steps I should use for this tool (given my View's new stats above) to get S-off and Cypher HC Rom back without bricking my new view??

Thanks,

Nico
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
When it comes to flashing roms I can't really help but as for the instructions:

option 6 (downgrades you from hc s-on to gb s-on)

option 2 (if option 6 doesn't work, but you will have to be htcdev unlocked)

option 0 (to get gb s-off)

option 4 (to upgrade from gb s-off to hc s-off)

then u can flash hc roms
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] uncanny03gt:
I appreciate your work!!

Thanks so much for your help!! Im going to get on this tonite and get back to normal... I cant stand to be on a factory setup with bloat!!

Nico
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ndorf:
Thanks for this tool. I downoaded it but reluctant to start until I understand a few things.

All I want to do is "root" my HTC Evo View 4G device so that one application, LectureNotes, can have access to be able to disable the taskbar when I do "inking." It can do this in it's options but device must be rooted. Otherwise my wrist hits the bar and interferes with usage. Apparently Google did not allow an api to turn on or off without root access.Does anyone know if ICS carried over this evil characteristic? I sure miss the "hardware" controls.

So I have the OTA Honeycomb 3.2.1, and I followed the directions to boot into HBoot and it says 1.14

ALL I want to do is root the device. Can I just use Revolutionary option 10 Superuser,

Or do I have to go through steps 3 and 4 first, downgrading to GB and then upgrading? And in doing so, will I lose all my purchased applications?

Sorry for the noob questions. I think I understand from the video tutorials how to use your tool; I just don't want to do any mods on my device than I have to and still want to wind up with the stock ROM, just with root.

Thank you and I apologize if I have posted in the wrong place.

@kevinrocksman

Is the Gingerbread ruu in the gbupdate directory?

I have downloaded the offline version.

Thanks for the help.

multiphoton
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
yes and no, it isn't a ruu u can just run, i took everything out of the ruu except the rom.zip.

long story short u have to run my tool (options) to use any ruu that comes with it
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] multiphoton:
Thanks for replying.

I tried option 6, then option 2, didn't succeed.

Next I tried the globatron hc stock to gb stock downgrade, but the ruu file site (rapidshare} is too slow.

Any idea about a mirror site for the ruu?

multiphoton
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
the only way option 2 failed is because you did something wrong. I have never seen it not work. Make sure you htcdev unlock and follow every instruction carefully before pressing enter.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] multiphoton:
I went through the globatron process, did htc unlock, flashed CWM, but failed at downloading the GB ruu.

In Multitool, I tried Option 6, and got the message hboot (1.10004.05) not supported.

In Multitool Option 2, Revolutionary reported that I had succeeded in downgrading to 1.1003.xxx, but bootloader showed no change.

Before this happened, I got three error messages saying my cache files could not be read.

Then the CWM instruction to go back to fastboot, using last option, GO BACK, did not work. I used ADB REBOOT BOOTLOADER to go back.

Tried several times. Any idea where its not working?

Is the CWM settings clashing with the globatron CWM settings?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] multiphoton:
Here are some of the messages I got from the screen grabs:

PLEASE BOOT BACK INTO FASTBOOT

(PRESS VOLUME DOWN AND POWER)

< waiting for device >

Here when I press volume down and power it says:

apply update from sd card

Confirm Install?

This can not be undone.

So I use the adb advanced options to reboot back into fastloader.

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kiit408:
I'm guessing s-off only for boot right? I already installed a new splash through recovery and was looking for a new boot animation. I was told by another thread I could install boot while having s-on still. Is this true? Thanks in advance
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
yes, as long as u have a custom recovery or custom rom it should work.

Worst case scenario it'll say "problem mounting system"

and nothing will happen. Go to recovery then choose recovery on my "flasher". Let me know how it goes ;)

the tool works great, However, I tried the HC downgrade to GB and it took forever, said FAILED in a couple spots, then after it went back to bootloader and it said RELOCKED ***SECURITY WARNING** and no GB.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
option 2?, It is because you did something wrong (missed a step, didnt read exactly what it said). I know this to be true, same thing has happened to many people. When it says go to fastboot MAKE SURE you are in fastboot and NOT bootloader. It messes things up. Just do option 2 again after unlocking and follow ever instruction to a T, watch the "video tutorial too"
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jkd12589:
Ok, I just unlocked it again, i also couldnt find the link to the video for option 2. it says not done. I will try again later, Is there a way to download and install cyper rom with your tool? I couldnt find the download link. If not I will try the GB downgrade again. Thank you !
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
when u choose option 2 it asks u at the beginning if you want to watch the tutorial. also right now cypher rom is unavaliable.... my file host wiped all my files
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jkd12589:
ok i went through the process again. Everything went smooth, however, it said I was finished and should now be Hboot 1.13, However it said relocked again and hboot 1.14. Is it because I installed CWM Recovery and Superuser already? Also i checked again and there is no option to see a tutorial, it goes from Accepting the terms right to plug in the view. ? Maybe I installed something wrong?.

Do I have to go and change every md5 main file or just the folder ?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
hm must not of made a video tut for that, u should see something that says:

changing version type to 2.256.xxxx something, if that was successful then itll be good, are you located in the us?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
Well re uploading files now, all animations should be available in about a hour​
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jkd12589:
Yes, I am. It goes through the USB debugging, then it sits a while on infosignature something. then access denied, reboots says sending zip, failed, reboots again , but this time to the operating system (HC) the screen says I should now be in 1.13. and asks me if I want to start over. I go back to boot loader and It says relocked in pink.

I see a new version (10.3) i had 10.0 and extracted both 10.1 and 10.2 patches. I am going to delete thise and start over with 10.3. If I further experience problems I will let you know. I will try to get some screenshots or something.

Thank you for all your Help !
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jkd12589:
Ok I used the 10.3 tool. i get permission denied, it will reboot and say wait for it to reboot to OS, However everytime it does this it boots into clockwork recovery? and says waiting for device.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] kevinrocksman:
ok by what you are showing me here why are you using option 6 if you htcdev unlock? If you are NOT unlocked by htcdev then option 6 is right, and yes this pic is correct

when u see this this is ok, press all the buttons until it reboots, make sure it reboots back to the OS COMPLETELY before pressing enter.

If the process doesnt work option 2 is your only other choice
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] jkd12589:
I Used option 6 because when I used option 2 it Relocked my bootloader,

just to clear things up this is my bootloader. (I just unlocked it again)
