Yay!!

I've made it!!

I manage to revert back to S-ON + stock hboot and revert to my original CID without even using USB cable

Now I can send it for repairs :)

Files required:

1) PD98IMG.zip for both build 1.32 and 3.13

2) hboot.nb0 files extracted from the 1.32 zip file (I've renamed the file so it would be easy to call)

3) gfree

4) Samba File Sharing from Google Play (in case you dont have a card reader)

5) ADB Konnect from Google Play

6) Visionary

Steps I did:

1) downgrade to 1.32 via bootloader PD98IMG.zip

2) root as usual (Visionary)

3) install ADB Konnect

4) install Samba File Sharing and configure your settings

5) run the ADB Konnect to enable adb over wifi

6) copy both hboot.nb0 and gfree to your C:\

7) open your command prompt "cmd" and enter "adb connect <your_device_ip>"

8) once connected, you can proceed to revert to your original CID and S-ON it back.

adb push gfree /data/local
adb shell
su
cd /local/data
chmod 777 gfree
./gfree --secu_flag on --cid HTC__044

9) next, flash the original hboot.nb0 file.

adb push hboot.nb0 /data/local
adb shell
su
cd /data/local
dd if=hboot.nb0 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18

10) Now run Samba File Sharing

11) from your PC, open your shared sdcard (refer address from the Samba File Sharing) and copy 3.13 PD98IMG.zip

12) back to the command prompt window, enter "adb reboot bootloader"

13) you should see your phone is now S-ON. proceed flashing by going into bootloader menu.

Hy,

My Desire HD is root and bootloader is open , but i can't make it s-off i have tried many tools, but always the same problem.

"problem of connexion"?

Plaese help. :eek:
[Desire HD Android Development] bbawden:
Please help

I'm trying to use this tool simply to Sim Unlock my handset.

It pushes the files to the SD card OK, then says "Syncing" for a few seconds before coming up with "Unknown error, probably connection".

Device manager doesn't report any errors, and I can do adb and it connects OK.

I'm running IceColdSandwich 8.5

Radio is 12.54.60.25U_26.09.04.11_M2

Kernel is 2.6.35.14-LorDmodUE-9.8.8-ICS-BFS

My PC is Win 7 Ultimate 64-bit

Interestingly HTC Sync cannot find the device (when I turn USB debugging off)

Can anyone suggest what I can do do make this work?

(BTW, I did in fact a proper SIM unlock code from Orange, but after entering it and it saying OK, the phone doesn't reboot as it should, and the code doesn't actually do anything. Not sure if that's related)

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] bbawden:
Hi.

Sorry to bump, but does anyone have an idea as to what I can try to get this working?

Would flashing a different radio help?
[Desire HD Android Development] t0mas_:
this thread is long dead. but, you might want to try turning your antivirus/firewall/all kinds of other pc protection software off. of that doesnt work, use different pc and/or cable. but since it pushes files ok, my bet is on antivirus. gl
[Desire HD Android Development] bbawden:
Thanks, I'll give that a go.
[Desire HD Android Development] gi812:
is there any way this could be implemented on an incredible 2?

(i was posting to the incredible 2 forums and it suggested this thread as related)
[Desire HD Android Development] fprado06:
Same problem as you sir...

always say "Unknown error, probably connection" can anyone be us advice?...
[Desire HD Android Development] Restorer:

Is need downgrade to s off?

My dhd now on miuiv5

S on

Unlock bootloader
[Desire HD Android Development] yumm91:
For average user, unlocked bootloader is enough to get by.. For flashing rom, you just need to flash boot.img everytime you flash new rom which is not necessary for s-off phone.
[Desire HD Android Development] mr.nou:
I think make it be s off will be nore usable for me when i want flashing rom on way

So what should i do?

Need back to stockrom or just let s off directly?
[Desire HD Android Development] itoYo:
could you kindly explain what you mean by flashing boot.img. i am trying to setup my dhd as a backup phone , so far i have managed to unlock bootloader and put cwm, i cant seen to get S-off as the various links are now dead. if i can flash a ROM using the method youdescribe it would be great.

thanks in advance for you help

hi! great tool! just used it to radio s-off/super cid and simunlock my dhd.After I've used this tool can i used your kernel Update utility to flash custom kernel on to my dhd?

Just need a confirmation before I go flashing.
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Please read the first post, it is all there.
[Desire HD Android Development] Sereniity:
I done this version and the manual version over eng s-off but the CID is still CID-HTC__001.

Now I may be confusing my self as I've read far too much today reguarding this but am I right in saying it hasnt worked as I don't have CID-1111111111111?
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Yeah, you are stuck with your new radio.

Without Radio S-OFF, people please, do NOT flash the new radio from the new rom!!

With Radio S-OFF it is ok.
[Desire HD Android Development] ql3x:
Hello All,

I'm just wondering how can i check current CID before applying this S-OFF method on a non ENG HBOOT ? (I'm on a FR Orange rom so, we never know...)

Checked on bootloader, but no HTC__xxx string, is it on a submenu somewhere hidden ? :D

Thanks !
[Desire HD Android Development] Diamondback:
I have flashed the radio from the new WWE RUU, so it won't Radio S-OFF my device?

Are you able to fix this? (Just a matter of time?) Or should i I downgrade, Radio S-OFF it and then reflash the new radio?
[Desire HD Android Development] lefty83:
my bootloader says ACE PVT ENG S-OFF

HBOOT 0.85.2007

eMMC-boot.

and system info show CID 1111111111

Does this mean its Radio S-OFF? Is it safe to flash new radio with the above?
[Desire HD Android Development] afrcom15:
Yes, your radio S-OFF and safe to flash.
[Desire HD Android Development] afrcom15:
You cannot go back unless you had radio S-OFF before.
[Desire HD Android Development] bariz143:
Hi.

I just flashed to the newest stock rom and now im stuck. cant temproot or permroot my phone. any ideas?

This is what i got in bootloader

ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT-0.85.0018

MICROP-0438

RADIO 26.04.02.17 M2

EMMC-BOOT

DEC 7 2010 002952
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Good, you are radio s-off, so there is hope. Flash older stock rom via fastboot, you can find the instructions by forum search.
[Desire HD Android Development] Diamondback:
I just downgraded the new radio to the old 26.03 one then run your tool and everything is fine.

I had eng S-OFF prior to using this tool.

Worked like a charm, but I didn't get this superuser-permission window...
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Su does not always pop up if you had already allowed a similar adb connection, so no worries. I am glad it worked!
[Desire HD Android Development] toooooby:
Hi guys,

is it possible that my CID is "O2_102" ? i'm asking because i only read about "HTC_..." CIDs in this thread, but my (o2 branded) phone got this CID in bootloader system info.
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Yes, it is possible, though I have never seen a CID like that.

CID usually contains eight characters, like SuperCID (11111111) or HTC stock ones (HTC__xxx), and at the moment my tool does not allow people to flash back stock CID's with more or less than 8 chars. However if you confirm that your CID consists of 7 chars, I can modify my tool.
[Desire HD Android Development] toooooby:
yes i can confirm this, the complete line says "CID-O2_102".

ah okay then i'll wait until i can use it :)
[Desire HD Android Development] toooooby:
oh wait! i think i failed. i looked it up again and i think there is a triple "_", so the whole line says "CID-O2___102" because the "___" is as long as the three chars "8MB" under it. i hope you can understand what i'm trying to say :) so you are right, it also has 8 chars, it was only difficult to recognize that there are three "_".

anyway, great work! :)
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
The new version is up!

Please note if your CID has one or two '_'s, because HTC stock CID is (with spaces to demonstrate) H T C _ _ 0 0 1. The tool accepts now CIDs with length 6, 7 and 8.

Okay, thank you for confimation, so CID is indeed always 8 char.
[Desire HD Android Development] toooooby:
sorry for the trouble! >.<
[Desire HD Android Development] Sereniity:
Wrong, actually. I went back to a previous radio without radio s-off and just a normal hboot s-off. After going back I done a full radio s-off and re-flashed the new radio.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser_tytnii:
was on deviant ROM 11-6 with SetiroN i9000 SuperOptimized Reoriented v1.2.6 kernel

then disabled all Lagfix in CWM (lagfix edition)

then nandroid backup

then wipe user data

then flash AXURA Beta5

then black screen for 20 minutes+

pull battery

won't turn on again...:(

tried 1 button (power), 2 button (vol down + power), 3 button, (both vol + power), captivate jig (301 ohm resistor), one-click odin (both vol + odin running in PC), still no go... did I miss any un-bricking methods?

it still charges (as it gets warm when charging from wall)

no PC <--> phone screen, no download mode, no boot, no AT&T screen, no boot loop, simply BLACK screen whatsoever....

guys, please help!!! I do not want to be the 1st one to brick the unbrickable Galaxy S devices....

Also, if anyone from Toronto could help with their homemade jig, in case mine was not properly made...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norcal einstein:
When you are using the 2 button method to try and get into Download mode, did you pull out the battery, SIM, and external SD before hand? The directions for that method should be:

1. Pull out battery, SIM, and any external SD. Phone should also be unplugged from the computer.

2. Leave the phone in this "off" state for at least 10 seconds

3. Hold Vol Up/Down

4. Insert Battery

With regards to the 301kohm resistor JIG, you cannot touch any bare metal on the JIG when you're trying to use it. Your body will change the resistance from 301kohm, to something like 250kohm...which won't work. Again with the JIG, you want to remove the SIM and any external SD card as well.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
Does the computer recognize the phone is being plugged in when it's at the black screen?

Also does the black screen have the buttons on the bottom of the phone light up?

You might be able to force the phone to go into download with ADB.

Otherwise try the above post... pull everything and keep trying. It should go into Download mode.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser_tytnii:
did that with odin and untouching the resistors already....:( still no go

i make sure i google and used the "search" function before i post....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser_tytnii:
i haven't tried adb yet, but pretty sure the computer does NOT recognize the phone...

buttons don't light up...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norcal einstein:
Do you have a multimeter to measure the resistance on your JIG across pins 4 & 5?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser_tytnii:
yes did that already, it's exactly 301ohm...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norcal einstein:
The only other option I could think of if I were in that position BESIDES getting a replacement would be to use JTAG to restore the phone.

http://riffbox.org/

It's an expensive piece of equipment at $150 USD. You might be able to try calling up independent cell phone repair stores as I would think a few might have a JTAG.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser_tytnii:
thanks man, will give it a try or will send to a Samsung Engineer...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser_tytnii:
adb no GO....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norcal einstein:
Not surprised. That seemed like the least viable option given the state of your phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser_tytnii:
sending to Samsung tomorrow... :(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cezar`:
Did you try pulling the bat out, putting it back in, then while holding the both volume buttons insert the USB?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser_tytnii:
yea did that more than 50 times already...:(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] or.saeros:
So have you come up with anything?? Any updates?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser_tytnii:
Samsung told me that the memory chip was burnt when flashing rom, common issue on galaxy phones... only possible fix is to replace the board ...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] or.saeros:
Wow, sorry to hear that bud... and really disappointing to hear that its a common issue!!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nappent:
I'm pretty sure something like that happened to me. I was still in my 30 day window so I took it back to AT&T and replaced it. At first it would just loop the AT&T logo. Then it just went black. Typically if you just get a black screen the phone is done. I would be interested to know how much it cost to get Samsung to fix it. Just incase....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaiser_tytnii:
well, that's the samsung quality in some area... unfortunately...

I will try to get it replaced over the weekend, will keep you posted...

[EVO 4G General] Nefariouss:
Just read the article on engadget. 50 for 5gb and 80 for 10gb. With 10$ over charges. Not sure if its all lte phones or only for the service though. Still sucks imo. I'll take sprints 10$ 4g charge any day.

Edit: Reading comprehension failure. Think this is not mobile lte data plans.
[EVO 4G General] jkinnison90:
I just hope Sprint can keep up with coverage.. verizons will be the same as their 3g coverage in around 2 years..
[EVO 4G General] Atticustrd:
We all know verizon will be a reliable lte provider. But can they keep up with sprints pricing.
[EVO 4G General] crazyloof:
Sprint's isn't even true 4g though. :( I feel like because they went with wimax they did get ahead of the game, but now that companies are coming out with true 4g they will be way behind because LTE covers MUCH more area. LTE towers reach farther then even 3g towers which crushes wimax. I hope sprint has a plan for this because I don't want to have to change phone plans again >.<
[EVO 4G General] thetakara:
Uh, no one has true 4G. In order to get that, you have to wait for Wimax 2 and LTE-Advanced.

And "The WiMAX Forum expects to see WiMAX Release 2 available commercially in the 2011-2012 timeframe."

The LTE-Advanced standard won't even be ratified until 2011.
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
I thought Dan Hesse came out and said that Sprint was looking into bolstering the "4G" network with an LTE network. is this no longer the case?

Also, those verizon prices are beyond ridiculous. i very much hope that sprint doesn't move to a tiered plan.
[EVO 4G General] thetakara:
They most likely will. If not, there is a lot of money to be lost there. It's becoming an industry standard.
[EVO 4G General] thetakara:
He stated that he is fully committed to wimax. He did state earlier that he was thinking about testing out LTE alongside wimax.

Ha.... I thought that was 2 different people posting... D:
[EVO 4G General] starnostar:
Ill take sprint any day of the week as they are the only contender with a truely unlimited data plan.

I pay for tethering, im rooted and could get it for free, but pushing no-fine-print unlimited data is is a huge huge win in my book, not to mention that sprint hasn't screwed me over once since I switched from t-mobile (t-mobile screwed me over every chance they got), they did kinda sneak the $5 spending limit onto my account, but after a quick chat with a rep, they now give me $4.99 credit toward my bill every month.

Wimax is still rolling out in my area (I can get the signal, but its weak and slow), so I primarily use 3G. My second job is fixing computers/building computers/rooting android phones, I'm not always at home for this, and when I'm at a clients house/coffee shop with crap wifi (cough...cough...starbucks) its so freakin' nice to be able to tether and download all the drivers/updates/.zips/roms I need without worrying about going over my data limit. Sprints 3G might not be as fast as a regular internet connection, but sometimes its all I have access to, and its usually better that using Quest DSL through the $10 walmart-special router.

....I pushed nearly 70GB last month in 3G data, and 37GB in the last two weeks....not a single peep/complaint/charge from sprint.

I dont care how fast a network is, being able to do what I do with my phone makes my job much much easier and less of a headache, in my book unlimited data>network speed. Im eagerly awaiting the 4G rollout in my area, as it rivals my oversaturated comcast connection.

It also feels good knowing that, if sprint ever does decide to change their plans on data usage, I will be grandfathered into unlimited data for my stay. I also see this as being one of the last non-tiered data plans avalable (at least in the US anyway), if sprint ever does change, their wont be any more.....

...well, that was a long rant...
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
Hold on. you use other people's work(i assume you DIDN'T build your own root method) that is offered freely and CHARGE people for it?? dude...
[EVO 4G General] twin001:
not to go OT, but it sounds like he is selling his labor and time, not the rom itself.
[EVO 4G General] dre4402:
Ima sprint cust but work for vzw those plans are for tge modems not phones no word yet on the premium data for phones
[EVO 4G General] devnulldroid:
Little off topic I realize but with all the buzz... I'd like to see Sprint and T-Mobile merge and bang some heads in both the wired/wireless telco industries.

Hell..smack around the cable companies too. They got their day coming.

One day a majority of their subscribers will finally realize they can get same content or better on the web and start leaving in droves.
[EVO 4G General] SilverStone641:
First of all, why would you want a sprint/t-mobile merger?? T-mobile has nothing that we don't. Secondly, what would sprint OR tmobile have to do with cable companies? wouldn't sites like hulu, vudu and boxee be better suited to "smack the cable companies" around? i believe most people are aware that they can get all their normal shows online. the cable box is just too convenient and familiar.
[EVO 4G General] jdh10475:
LTE does not necessarily reach further its the frequency that reaches further. Verizon is using a lower frequency which does travel further so its the spectrum that Verizon has not the technology. Also neither wimax nor LTE are true 4g. When a car has the radio up loud you hear the base first because base travels further because it is a lower frequency.
[EVO 4G General] JKingDev:
Your facts are correct but the car audio analogy is not. Lower frequencies do not travel faster. They just penetrate obstacles better. This means they penetrate building walls better for indoor coverage and they penetrate air better, going farther before the signal has degraded beyond usability.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
"True 4g" has been defined as "capable of reaching 1gbit/sec"
[EVO 4G General] JKingDev:
4G also does not just mean speed. A true 4G network is an all IP network. Meaning no more circuit switched voice call transmission. Everything is packet switched. Calls are VOIP. A true 4G network allows VOIP calls to seamlessly be handed off to a wifi connection and back ect. All these carriers boasting 4G has degraded the significance of what a true 4G network is. And no one is there to blow the whistle on this false advertising.
[EVO 4G General] cornelious2:
Further not faster.
[EVO 4G General] ViViDboarder:
Which conveniently is when my contract is up on my EVO.

I'll go to whoever has the best technology at the best price. I bought the iPhone 3G on release and then switched to the EVO after my contract. If someone has a better option in 2 years then I'll go with that.

Wimax is more than enough to get me through it.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
That's an interesting and excessive claim.

Any facts to back that up to any degree?
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
Those prices are for data cards.... Sprint is $59.99 for 5gb and $250 for 10gb, no, that is not a typo.
[EVO 4G General] EricSS619:
I wanna know who decides what "true" 4g is. Hell who decided what 3g is? Sprint didn't even call their network "any"G for the longest time.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
http://www.itu.int/en/pages/default.aspx
[EVO 4G General] suck3rs:
1 gbit/sec? I have not read anywhere stating this connection speed for 4g. The only article I have found stating a speed said

100 mbit/sec.

Most of the articles consist of what standards and technologies are considered 4g. A few of the companies such as Sprint have been given official permission to use of the 4g term. Pretty much they state the same for both Sprint and Verizon. The are making future provisions to their network to match the standard.

Technically Sprint 4g is 4g.
