Help! pls

Hi and good day

I have a htc desire 500 for half a year now.

no problems until yesterday when my sister made a security pin to unlock my device to make me angry.

now she forget it and i cant use my phone anymore. i entered the code more than 100 times but tehere is no popup like "forgot pin".

Tried to make a factory reset but there comes the "error formating system", i am using the latest cwm.

Is there any Chance to crack the code or fix the cwm error?

One question.

Can you tell me what happens if i would flash a Dual-Sim ROM over a Single-Sim ROM.

Jelly Kat looks really good, and i want to install it on my phone, but i really dunno what will happen. Could i brick it? Or it will just see 2 sims, while there is only one slot, nothing less nothing more+

Problem with S-OFF

Hey Guys,

i have the Problem that every "How to" failed to get S-OFF and flash a custom ROM. I only get Terminal Root which doesn't support Root-needed Apps and installing custom ROM's.

Some info's for my device sytsem status (HTC Desire 500 Single-SIM, no branding, no SIM-lock):

Ultimate Kernel "boot8_no_oc.img" flashed (3.4.0-gaf27bf1-dirty, dummie999@kernel #1)

stock-ROM z4u 4.1.2 Build-Number 1.34.401.1 CL364223 release-keys (installed before i want to flash my custom ROM)

hboot 1.03

TWRP 2.7 (as recovery)

I want to flash a custom ROM like PACman, Paranoid, Ufo or ShadowDX (preference would be PACman), but i get different "errors". PACman and Paranoid doesn't want to be installed with TWRP, it says "failed". Installation of Ufo and ShadowDX are successfull but when i reboot the System, it boots into the stock-ROM. After flashing the kernel and rebooting i still don't have S-OFF. I also tryed the kangbang-kernel-v3.0. But the it was also unsuccessfull. And at least i tryed it with CWM-Recovery, too, but it still won't work. Can anyone help me, please?

P.S.: I can work with Windows 7 AND with Ubuntu 12.04. I could also customize the kernel on my own with instructions. I only want to get my HTC Desire 500 with S-OFF, ROOT and custom ROM working. Thanks to all Answers (if anything would be needed, please tell me and you will get the Informations ;) ... )
[HTC Desire 500] vampir74:
lol
[HTC Desire 500] croassu:
Sry, but its true. I also tryed to set it to factory settings and let SRSRoot do the work for me. It puts out an error or says your still rooted. I think it has something to do with the S-OFF-Settings which won't be set. I don't know what it is, so i'm asking for help here ;)
[HTC Desire 500] vampir74:
1. u try to flash something not work for us device .

End of story !!!
[HTC Desire 500] croassu:
No not End of Story. Sry, I forgot to say that i tryed to flash JamesROM too and there are many descriptions to do this with that kernels and recovery's but it also doesn't work. Maybe you can tell me why i can't get S-OFF, cause i think that's the point of my Problem.

Please help. There is a way to this, i know.

---------- Post added at 01:46 ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 ----------

you flash a good recovery for your hboot
[HTC Desire 500] croassu:
But what can i do to work with root-needed Apps. It also comes an error when i tryed to use this apps and they doesn't work. On my old phone i have some saves of apps done with TitaniumBackup. A root-checker says i have terminal root but doesn't let me use root-needed-Apps. Something is wrong and i want to know what and how to fix my Problem.
[HTC Desire 500] vampir74:
u flash a recovery for hboot 1.03 ?

after this u flash with recovery the SuperSU.zip file ?
[HTC Desire 500] croassu:
Yes i did
[HTC Desire 500] vampir74:
u have SuperSU apk installed when u boot up
[HTC Desire 500] croassu:
yes, the update of the binary SU false anyway. Normal installation puts out an error an with TWRP/CWM it doesn't reboot, with manual reboot into bootloader it doesn't flash anything
[HTC Desire 500] vampir74:
normal installation not go if u not have a custom kernel with system protection off
[HTC Desire 500] ufonek:
[MENTION=6256664]croassu[/MENTION]

On the phone you can not install rom from other devices! If you have Ultimate kernel, then you also have root. Recovery must be for your HBoot!!! Install Custom rom for HTC Desire 500. Then you have SuperSU.

phone stuck on htc white start screen

Guys,

I have a problem with my phone, I wake up today to find it showing the white start screen with HTC logo, since then I have been trying to make it work with no result :crying:.

I tried going into the bootloader; but no thing works over there, when I try factory reset, no thing happens. Also, when I try to go into the recovery, it restarts and hangs on the same white screen!! My phone is not rooted and running on the custom rom.

I don't know if s/one had the same problem before or not because the thread is very long, I tried searching in the thread and the forum and couldn't reach a similar thing; may be different description. So, forgive me if I am posting a repeated thing.

Another update: I tried to unlock the bootloader using the htcdev, and I completed every thing until it reaches the bootloader unlock confirmation screen and then when I press the power button to confirm the YES, it does nothing, while when I press the no button it restarts the phone and the bootloader is kept unlocked of course!!
[HTC Desire 500] Myrmeko:
Thanks. Happy holydays. :)

---------- Post added at 04:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:38 PM ----------

Hello. Go to your pc. Go in bootloader, to fastboot (you have to have unlocked bootloader, if not go to HTCdev and unlock it), then open ADB, and install CWM recovery. Download the StockROM or UFO ROM (if you have single sim), or JellyKat ROM or Stock Dual Sim ROM (if you have dual sim). It will delete all you have installed on your phone. And delete all the memory. At the moment your phone is 100% bootlooping, because of a software error (the ROM got fu#ked by something, it happens on every phone. For me, ot happened on my old LG and a Nokia 6710 Navigator).

Also, ask somebody else. Im new in the rooting stuff. I messed up my phone twice. :))

And probably you dont want to lose all your data. Ask more people.

Problem retourn stock and install jamesrom

Hi everyone, i have a problem whit the phone (D500 single sim), i wasn't able to install a sense rom (stock and JamesRom) :eek: , I followed the instructions and i have right recovery for hboot 1.02 but always sometimes not work. I can only install U.F.O DDK rom.

this is what i do:

for stock rom (hboot 1.02):

-->wipes in cwm, install rom[z4u]etc.zip (when cmw flash the recovery the phone switched off but i think is normal)--> lock bootloader--> rebootRUU--> flash firmware.zip ( cmd say successful but green bar in phone is not complete)--> reboot.

Result: bootloop

for JamesRom:

-->wipes in cwm --> restore JamesRom backup(error falied to restore system)(common problem)--> reboot.

Result : phone freeze on htc/beatsaudio screen

am i doing something wrong?

can someone help me? thanks in advance.
[HTC Desire 500] MadaraOP:
It's a shame no one wants to develop roms for this device. The phone is capable of running 4.2.2 and we are stuck on 4.1.2. It would be a much faster phone with aosp or cyanogenmod. Even chinese pbones like micromax has cyanogenmod 11 and the phone has the same hardware as us! I wish someone could step up and develop a rom for this awesome phone....

bootloop problem

Hi everyone, first of all I apologize if i'm writing on the wrong topic.

I have my htc desire 500 stuck in a bootloop (only goes to the htc logo). I can only enter fastboot, i can't get into recovery.

what i've done so far:

-unlocked it using the htc dev site.

-tried both cwm and twrp recovery

-installed firmware

all say it's gone OKAY, but when i try to enter recovery it says "entering recovery" and then it restarts and goes into the loop again

i'd appreciate any help since i tried everything i could find on this forum and everywhere on the web

thanks for responding.

yes, i flashed a recovery via fastboot. i tried both cwm and twrp. after I flashed them i tried entering recovery but it still goes in the boot loop. (first it says entering recovery, and then it just restarts)

after that i also tried flashing a new kernel, also from fastboot. (i tried the one from this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2752625)

Bluetooth won't turn on

Hi guys,

I have problem with bluetooth on my htc desire 500. No matter what would I do my bluetooth won't to turn on. I used it a lot and suddenly when I turned it off i couldn't turn it back on. I've tried everything, looked everywhere and nothing helped me. My hboot is 1.02, tried every kernel that is available. With the stock roms it also won't turn on. I have wiped everything, tried even some light version of some russian rom and nothing. I have no idea what could it be. Yesterday it turned on but it couldn't connect to any device. After that i switched it off and of course I couldn't switch it on again. I've also tried to clean bluetooth cache but it's not made any changes. I know I'm not the only one with this problem, but nowhere I could find the solution for this issue. Could somebody help me with this?

Also none of google play bluetooth fix solved this problem. Please help me with this, I really need bluetooth for everyday use.

HTC desire 500, single sim, root, cwm all unlocked.

When you flashed the firmware, you wiped cwm of your phone, to replace it with the stock recovery.
