Is there any way to change the phone back to S-ON so that it is just like you bought it?

[HTC Desire 500] ricardo-nl:
I tried, but still got the 7 vibrates on boot that came with the Romrunner S-off.

My steps:

-Stock rom (backup) 1.20

-Manually ota 1.32 (stock apps)

-Manually firmware 1.32 (for os display in hboot)

-Flashed stock boot.img & recovery.img

-LOCKED on hboot

-Supercid back to stock

-S-on (fastboot oem writesecureflag 3)

-factory reset in phone

Pics:

I think we gotta need a RUU to make it ciompletely stock.
[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:
If you flash the firmware, then you flash boot.img & recovery.img as well.

I'm not sure if an RUU would solve it.

btw if you have a complete system dump, then you might be able to find the partition were the changes were made and flash it back with dd.

Tried it first before that and thought I still had the kangbang kernel after. (In about kernel still was ROOT@... now it's root@...)

Yes I saw that. I hope that HTC won't make a problem of it and cover it under warranty.

Hi guys! I've got a bad message for you...

The newest James Rom was almost ready to release it.

But yesterday my Phone had a display issue,and now the phone is at its repair service.

The worst thing is, that i didn't have the chance to backup the System.

And when i get my phone back, i have to re-modify the whole system. This could take me a while.

But don't worry,when i get my phone back, i'll start working on it again.

[HTC Desire 500] ricardo-nl:
Hey, you got the same problem as I described above?
[HTC Desire 500] 007gamer:
no, it was my fault, i dropped the phone. :D And now when you shake the Phone, the display shuts off until you shake again. :(
[HTC Desire 500] DutchMan_1990:
Probably my device is Bricked so I need experts help

Here is the real problem..

unlocked the boot loader successfully and flashed the recovery image file by following this tutorial

According to cmd panel...flash status was OK but the device went dead, I don't know what's wrong with the device only orange LED is blinking if I connect the phone with charger with or without battery. So I went to the service center and they told me to replace the main board and asked me 8500 Indian Rupees nearly about 145USD as they detected boot loader was unlocked and unauthorised recovery ( I don't know how did they able to manage the phone powered on) . Is there any way to unbrick the device?

another thing no key combination is working so I can't enter to fastboot and my pc isn't detecting the phone.

[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:
Did you flash anything via the recovery? If no then the problem is not that you flashed the recovery for a wrong hboot version.

So you can't boot into fastboot? Are you sure this is not the problem with the dual sim phones not booting, as described earlier in this thread?
[HTC Desire 500] DutchMan_1990:
No I can't enter to fastboot and I just flashed the recovery (cmd status sending recovery ..ok and flash status ..ok) and bang!! device went black and nothing working

Index Thread

Oh, thats awesome, thanks :) However, I am still not quite sure, because more people complained about bugs, for example:

"Do you have the original kernel and could you post that one also?

I've now got a buggy kernel and no backup of my previous kernel."

or

"Well, I discovered another bug ...

I purchased "System Tuner Pro" in the past, and with this kernel it won't install, it says:

"Couldn't install on USB storage or SD card."

and so on...

So this is what I am afraid of :D That these things are still not totally complete, and someday later, I will find, that I have something buggy, and I have to do the whole process all over again :D And still nobody tried s-off for example..

So what I dream about is something like this index thread for my last phone :D : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1146601

where there would be available whole step-by-step rooting process in one place and completely bug-free :D

Still, I think that we are very close to that reality, aren't we??

Hi! My best friend recently bought this phone for 200 EUR. Do you think that this price is fine?

One more thing - is the ROOT procedure OK, tested? Can it brick the phone? How about moving APPS/Cache to SD card - is it possible with Folder Mount or other app?

What are the general issues with the phone - I mean the disadvantages. In gsmarena they say the camera and CPU isn't good. Is it true? What do you think?
[HTC Desire 500] DahakePL:
Hmmm...200EUR?

I'm in Poland and I've bought it for 600PLN ~ (That's about 150EUR)

And it was new ;)

Yes root procedure is tested on single sim and probably works fine with dual sim :P

Just install the KangBang kernel,

It can brick phone but if only something goes wrong :)

Why everyone keep saying about moving apps to SD card :D

I have most of my apps on SD and it's working fine :confused:

Camera is the strong side of the phone in my opinion :)

Only recording videos lacks detail,

About the CPU, it's good in most cases, Dead Trigger 1 is working on HIGH with not much lag and Dead Trigger 2 is fully playable on LOW :)

Anyway the phone is performing really good in every game that I've tested,

Benchmarks are often better than a few flagship phones of the past year :P

I'll explain:

You either have a hard bricked device (unrestoreable, need motherboard replaced)

or

You have the problem listed in the thread (dual sim not booting after cwm install)

hardbricking your phone is pretty difficult when you are S-ON ;), so my guess is you have the second problem,

which should be solved when you leave the battery out, wait a time, put the battery in, wait a time, boot

I am currently working on the root tool and I wrote a little code to check if a phone is connected to the PC but I am not sure if it will run on every PC.

you just need to extract the Archive, run the ADB connected.exe and check if the program detects it correctly.

Well, I'll make logcat as soon as I get rid of SuperSU problem. I've succesfully unlocked bootloader, installed CWM and your v6 kernel and then installed SuperSU v0.98 through CWM. Unfortunetaly SuperSU kept asking me to update binary. I had two options: Normal and TWRP/CWM. I chose the second one and my phone booted into CWM automatically and rebooted after few minutes, but even then, SuperSU kept displaying the same message after I had tried to open it. I tried flashing the newest version of SuperSU but it didn't help. I gave up on SuperSU and flashed SuperUser which seems to be working. Do you have any suggestions? :(

1.32.401.1
[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:
Flash the normal way ;) (/system write protection is removed, so you can flash everything the normal way)

(I'm not sure, but I think cwm has no ors, which means you can't tell it to flash sth when the phone is running, you would have to do it manually)

we dont even have 4.2 or 4,3 there's a long way to get 4.4 kit kat !

But does it mean we don't get any update at all? Our device was not updated at least once which is very uncommon - from what I know every low-end HTC device was updated once.

I was not expecting Kitkat at all, but at least 4.2 or 4.3 would be nice...

I do not care for 4.2 (you have custom rom here) or 4.3, as they did not bring much to the table, but 4.4 gets you that ever desired Bluetooth LE GATT stuff that I would love to get my Polar HeartRate monitor connected.

1.I download stock rom from first page and wipe data/factory reset,wipe cache, flashed in cmw but my phone just skipped the installing system part and after reboot same problem: white sreeen whit HTC logo

2.I installed JamesRom and phone works normal but it wasn't able to access SIM card(this room isn't compatible whit dual sim version but starts normally and smoothly)

I want to fix the problem whit "froze at white sreeen HTC logo"
[HTC Desire 500] dummie999:
Surprised? No offence, but you wiped /system and you are surprised it doesn't boot! That's the same as removing the hard drive from your windows computer and then being surprised it doesn't work.

You can't restore it easily. You need to install the 1.20 stock rom, then flash the OTA manually (only the part with /system. You DON'T have to reflash the firmware.zip)

But... How to get the "OTA"? :)

Fixed dual-sim issues

Hey guys.

I've finally achieved S-OFF on my Desire 500 Dual-SIM.

Turns out the method used for S-OFF doesn't work on x64 systems (at least for me).

I have solved all my Dual-SIM not booting issues with this zip I have compiled.

The OS now shows up in hboot.

I have also modded the hboot not to show the red text and changed the Splash Screen to a black Stock version

ONLY FOR 1.26.401.2 OS VERSION (hboot 1.03.0001)

Just do this:

1 - Unlock Bootloader

2 - Get Root

3 - Get S-OFF

4 - Get SuperCID (fastboot oem writecid 11111111)

5 - Use theses commands to flash my firmware:

adb reboot-bootloader

(WAIT until you get the FASTBOOT USB)

fastboot oem rebootRUU

(WAIT until you see the grey HTC logo)

fastboot flash zip firmware_billabongstaff.zip

fastboot flash zip firmware_billabongstaff.zip

(YES, do it twice and wait it out until the end)

fastboot reboot-bootloader

(WAIT until you get the FASTBOOT USB)

(See if OS shows up or not)

fastboot reboot

DONE!

ENJOY.

NOTE: Everytime you access your Custom Recovery, it makes a change within the partitions and the OS will no longer show up and you'll have to flash the zip again if you want to keep your phone bootable as any other normal phone.

Access your Custom Recovery as little as possible.

@Op, kindly add this to the first page.

Best regards.

IOCTLs are codes that kernel framebuffer is sending to userspace display driver for communication.

You have to find display driver that works for you. Or make display-caf to work.

Yeah, I manage, but I lack the experience, so everything takes a very long time.

and another one, msm_rotator_buf_sync

but now I get :

getRotDevFd failed.

Which means that it cannot find /dev/msm_rotator, which means that /driver/char/msm_rotator.c doesn't get initialized. Any ideas?
