I tried installing blackrose, but it just sits there saying waiting for device.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Do you have ADB debugging enabled on the ROM you are running? Is the phone is Charge only mode? Do you have the HTC drivers installed?
[HTC Incredible S] nikz106:
i got an error saying " failed to check device model ' .. what to do?
[HTC Incredible S] kattara:
I have adb debugging enabled and the HTC drivers installed. But what's this charge only mode?
[HTC Incredible S] nikz106:
can i push this file " hboot_blackrose.img " via fastboot in order to install the blackrose?? as i get an error saying "failed to check device model" when i run the .exe file.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
When you connect the phone to a computer via USB, there is a notification or menu that you pick what you want to do. You should have it in Charge Only mode and not in USB storage mode.

---------- Post added at 04:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:19 PM ----------

No, but if you search through the thread, there is a post on how to do it in adb mode using the dd command.
[HTC Incredible S] kattara:
Oh, I see what you mean. I'm running miui atm, so it's a little different. But yes, I've tried it in both modes. It's still saying waiting for device.

Is it because I'm on a different pg?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
No, because I was able to install it on my Canadian IncS PG3212000 just fine.
[HTC Incredible S] kattara:
Oh sweet! Now that I was thinking about it, I think I may have installed ENG HBOOT. Is that gonna make a difference?
[HTC Incredible S] nikz106:
Ty.. . It worked by dd command!! For others who got an error of failed to check device model.. Check post 15 dd method.. Worked for me.. Zillion thanks!! ;)

Swyped from Galaxy Note
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
It shouldn't. The requirement was S-OFF which the ENG HBOOT definitely has. BTW if the exe doesn't work, there is a post in the thread that has a link to a PG32 IMG.zip that will.
[HTC Incredible S] kattara:
Ok. I'll have another go at it again later. Thanks so much for your help!

EDIT: I just tried it again, and this time Blackrose installed perfectly. I have no idea why it decided to do it, coz I didn't do anything different. *shrug*
[HTC Incredible S] Cookie Ninja:
Do you lose the 'reboot to bootloader by vol -' in this hBoot? I just changed from revolutionary and pressing vol - at end of shutdown (keylights go off during reboot) does not bring up hBoot. Worked flawlessly in revolutionary in ROMs that don't have apm....

Edit.

Vol- & power on button during start does get to bootloader, then why does pressing vol- in reboot not bring up the bootloader? Any solutions?

Sent from my HTC Incredible S
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
I have not had any issues with pressing the volume down on reboot to get into HBOOT with the BlackRose HBOOT. I am also waiting for the keylights to go off and then press and hold the volume down and it boots into HBOOT.
[HTC Incredible S] Cookie Ninja:
Maybe I'm getting old or have got butterfingers! Will try later. Took the plunge into hBoot 2.02 eventually to run some ROMs that NEED this hBoot. Is it any better as compared to revolutionary?

Sent from my HTC Incredible S
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
I never had to use Revolutionary. When I got my IncS it was fully unlocked and S-OFF via XTC Clip.

The only reason I have put BlackRose on was to try and troubleshoot issues users were having trying to install my stock, rooted ICS ROMs that I built from the ICS RUUs.
[HTC Incredible S] Cookie Ninja:
And that's the Rom I intend to flash right now! Thanks...

[HTC Incredible S] deathgame:
i uninstalled blackrose and i am stuck on fasboot usb screen...dont know what to do...plz help :(
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
What ROM did you have installed prior to removing BlackRose HBOOT. When you uninstall BlackRose, it will replace itself with the stock HTC HBOOT 1.13 which will not work with either the stock GB 2.3.5/Sense 3.0 ROM or the stock ICS ROM.
[HTC Incredible S] deathgame:
i was using CM7 ..and now HBOOT version is 1.13 and it is stuck on bootloader...what should i do now

Edit: it is showing s-on now...but i can see recovery option when i boot from power+vol down. but its not working now and phone restarts !
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Can you get into recovery from the HBOOT menu? If so, try restoring your backup (you did make a backup before you tried this, right?).
[HTC Incredible S] deathgame:
when i try to boot in to recovery phone restarts in fastboot usb mode :(

phone is showing s-on now
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Yes that is because the stock HBOOT 1.13 is S-ON. You lost S-OFF when you removed BlackRose.

You need to flash a stock RUU to get your phone operational and then you can use Revolutionary to get S-OFF back.
[HTC Incredible S] deathgame:
can i flash any stock ruu ? i mean virgin or wwe anyone ?

and how can i flash it plz help

Edit : Do i need to make any gold card ?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
I would use the WWE GB 2.3.3 2.30.405.1 RUU. You may need a goldcard.

[HTC Incredible S] sikandar9:
I'm using nick's rom on hboot 2.02. Project x v4 with s on n HTC dev.com unlocked bootloader . How to install black rose bootloader at this stage?
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
Yes there is and you actually posted a copy of the post by nonverbose on the Downgrade Script thread. You can manually run the dd command as documented in that post.
[HTC Incredible S] Cyb0rgz:
Please confirm whether following thread is good to go,'

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26909973&postcount=13

please confirm, whether the commands executed in following order,

1. Download blackrose and extract hboot_blackrose.img to your sdcard root. Its not necessary to use the root folder but fits in this context.

2. Open terminal, or download and open if you dont have, and type:

su
dd if=/sdcard/hboot_blackrose.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18

3. Verify checksum

Am i need to run the above command as such? or md5sum need to be replaced with '9ccb6c894bba1a32a551a6569fc6fccd' ?

If not,whether we need to place the md5sum in the root of sdcard? Please clarify

4. then reboot into recovery.

4ext touch recommended that I do a full system format, but you could probably just get away with formatting cache.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
After you download and extract the hboot_blackrose.img to your SD card, you should then do Step 3 to check the MD5 checksum. When you run that command, it will output a hex value. If that value does not match the MD5 value in the post, then do not continue and do not run the dd command.

If the MD5 value does match, then you can perform Step 2.

The dd command is executed in an adb shell, so you need to have a ROM installed and booted for adb to work correctly.

I have read almost whole 227 Post in this thread and No clear guide for linux user, but I'm linux user and can use DD Command for easy and safe. I just wanna to share what I did and hopefully will give a clue to other linux users and Vivo Owners.

Preconditions :

- linux PC with fastboot and adb properly setting (I used linuxmint 13 x86_64)

- Vivo S-off with working android rom

download Black Rose from This OP, extract hboot_blackrose.img from boat folder and copy into sd root of sdcard in your phone. Sure you need to connect your phone to PC on android mode (Normal operations for phoning, texting, watching video etc)

open terminal, execute

2-For install: if a I changed the name for the zip file from BlackRose_IS_120602_5.zip to PG32IMG.zip and put on SD and install from the bootloader menu??

3-I lost the sim unlock (unlock for any carrier)?

Thanks a lot people!!!!!!
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
No, the ZIP file is not in PG32IMG.zip format so that will not work!

The bootloader has nothing to do with the radio version.

Since you have Revolutionary S-OFF why don't you just following the instructions in the first post? The zip file contains an executable file that you run while the phone s booted normally with USB Debugging enabled.
[HTC Incredible S] x1123:
1. Yes you can Install blackrose. Radio have no relation with radion. If you wish toinstall ICS based ROM, you probably interesting to flash ICE CREAM SANDWICH RADIO FOR VIVO.

2. File BlackRose_IS_120602_5.zip is Not for PG321IMG.zip format, inside the zipped folder is many other file like adb,fastboot, and script. The ONLY MOST IMPORTANT file is hboot_blackrose.img. So you can put hboot_blackrose.img in zip file along with a text file named android-info.txt (content information about your device) and renamed into PG321IMG.zip, put into root of your SD and install via hboot mode.

below is example of android-info.txt please modified and ensure you know what you are doing.

Otherwise you just follow OP of dd mode.

3. Yes will LOSS Carrier UNLOCK (and LOCK), AFAIK mean a device with this blackrose No carrier will able to lock sim card.

[HTC Incredible S] Ozgurce:

Thanks, x1123 for the answer.

Based on your description I wont use these procedure, because I dont want lost my carrier unlock, now Im outside US, and I really need the hability to use any SiM carrier...

Thanks again for all the help and pacience guys!!
[HTC Incredible S] Cookie Ninja:
I think you may have misunderstood the answer. What the guy meant to say was that by flashing blackrose, you debrand your phone and make it truly SIM-free and unlocked. Not only will your phone become network unlocked, IN ADDITION, your wireless service provider cannot even try to relock the phone to his network. That is, when you return back home, you are at liberty of switching service providers by simply switching SIM cards without fear if relocking your phone....just my 2 cents of what I understood from your posts.

[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
I would concur with Cookie Ninja. I also understood the post to have that meaning and wouldn't cause you any issues with your SIM cards.

[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
This only works to upgrade from Revolutionary S-OFF HBOOT 6.13.

If you have ICS update with HBOOT 2.02.0002, then you first need to unlock it and then use the Downgrade Script to prepare your phone to accept a RUU/ROM with HBOOT 1.13. Once that is done, then you can run Revolutionary.io and once that is done, then you can install BlackRose 2.02.0002

With HBOOT 2.00.0000 I would recommend that you go to the Development section and check out the S-OFF for HBOOT 1.16 and Above sticky post that details the downgrade process to prepare your phone for the Revolutionary S-OFF process.
