help on radio

Hi jkoljo for your help was having some issues to have ENG-off but all is well solved thanks.
[Desire HD Android Development] ehalai:
Hello All

Will this tool work for my T-Mobile Branded S-on DHD?

please help me
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Sure it will if your build number is not 1.7 or higher, in that case you need to downgrade first.

Challenge for today!

Hi folks.

Rooted my T-Mobile UK branded Desire HD yesterday and installed DHD NDT MIUI GINGER V9.0 (2.3.5).

Was loving it - fantastic. Or would have been until the touchscreen stopped working completely!

I don't think the problem is software based as I was browsing the internet at the time. So I re-flashed 1.32 ROM to see if I could fix the problem.

All booted back into Android 2.2 fine - but still no touchscreen.

So I downloaded 1.72 T-Mobile RUU and flashed that to take it back to original T-Mobile UK ROM (for warranty purposes). Only problem is it is still S-OFF in bootloader menu. That will void my warranty.

How would I go about reversing S-OFF from bootloader menu or any other way - bearing in mind the touchscreen is completely unresponsive - and as a result I cannot switch USB debugging on or install ROM manager, Visionary or similar?

Any help will be very much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi to all,

Please help ...:o

Try it again...I had the same problems, and it's up now.
[Desire HD Android Development] ozzie252:
Is there a way?
[Desire HD Android Development] gimj01:
My DHD is bricked (7 vibrations at boot then completely stuck). I want to repair it using warranty, but i can't go back to S-ON because the tool works only on debug mode. (I can acces only fastboot commands). Are there any solutions or i must send to the repair service with S-OFF?

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] unhallowedone:
And going into recovery also doesn't succeed? Try to pull battery first and then plug it in again before trying recovery, I sometimes experience that recovery doesn't work after a while without pulling the battery.

Reverting to stock worked nicely.

Started with installing 1.32 RUU via PD98IMG.zip.

Thanks jkoljo!

Please make one of those S-off/S-on tools for the HTC Sensation , would be amazing
[Desire HD Android Development] bremair:
Hi I want to root my DHD with visionary. I downgrade it succesfully and now start visionary to set radio S-OFF. I click "temproot now" and I see the rooting now screen but when it should switch back to the visionary start screen i see a black screen and nothing happen.

Anyone got the same problem and could help me?

*edit

fixed. something went wrong with downgrading
[Desire HD Android Development] Razza12003:
Sorry if this has already been asked, but.....

I have eng s-off and already have ARHD 6.1.2 installed but not with the recommended radio, so I was going to install that, but upon checking it looks like I just have eng s-off and not radio s-off too.....Is it too late for me to get radio s-off now I have already flashed a custom rom? Or can I still go ahead and use this tool?

Does this method meant to sim unlock my my htc desire hd? My handset is branded by Orange? Advise please..

Radio s-off on Desire HD with ARHD 6.1.5

Hi all, Great thread. :)

jkoljo - Great job on these tools and guides you have created.;)

Please can i ask for a little help?? :D

I've got a HTC Desire HD which was originally on T-mobile UK (CID t-mob005), I asked them to unlock it for me which they did successfully.:)

I then downgraded from 1.72 to 1.32 without any trouble. thanks to "How to downgrade" guide. :p

Rooted it and applied eng s-off (Desire HD easy s-off tool) sorted.

Installed Android Revolution HD 6.1.5 ;)

kernel RCMIX_EVO3d_V11_OC_2WCR

Radio 12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M

I want to add Radio s off as I don't have Super CID, however I keep on getting error "Unknown Error probably connection" in the "Desire HD easy radio tool_V2_2" tool :confused:

I've downgraded the radio to the required one in requirements (page 1)

I stuck now and really need some help. I've been reading for the last 5 hours.. I'm going around in circles now. :mad:

Thank you for your time and help in this matter. :cool:
[Desire HD Android Development] nteeb:
Did you allow the superuser permission appearing on the screen of your dhd?
[Desire HD Android Development] umster:
Yes, sorry forgot to mention this. I did give it permission
[Desire HD Android Development] umster:
Can you activate radio s off on a custom rom i.e ARHD 6.1.5 like I have? or do you have to do it on stock??

any help would be greatly appreciated :cool:

hey guys i am i a weird situation... i bought a 2nd hand desire hd, i go into bootloader its written on top "ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF RL" but the rom is not rooted, and there is no clockworks recovery done as well.. i tried to flash it via fastboot but it failed, i checked cidnum its HTC__001... so according to a guy i m not full s-off :S , need help what should i do... ?

Thanks in advance
[Desire HD Android Development] nteeb:
The problem is here:you need to have stock 1.32 installed to run this tool.

---------- Post added at 11:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:36 PM ----------

Wich firmware are you on?
[Desire HD Android Development] babooandroid:
Hey sry for late reply.. health issues.. on software number 2.50.405.2

Bought the set 2nd hand..

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] babooandroid:
Guys any help :)...
[Desire HD Android Development] woti23:
i had the same situation: eng s-off and root, but no radio s-off, custom rom allready installed. so no new radio flashable.

after reading a lot and trying to radio s-off in terminal/adb with (different) gfree (versions 0.2 till 0.7)

/system/xbin/gfree -c 11111111 and error messages about emmc power cycles

i came to conclusion, that its kernel related and tried a 2.6.32 kernel instead of 2.6.35 with my custom rom RCMIX 4.0. this made the emmc messages go away but did not change the cid.

this also is no usable kernel for the custom rom, so it does not much more than show the pin enter screen.

next i flashed this kernel

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/15005030/Buzz_SENSE_1.3.7_OC+.zip

from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=835616

(the 1.3.7 sense version)

and tried again. and it worked - at least in system info it shows CID 11111111 now

after that i reverted to the original 2.6.35 kernel from my rom

well, take care, it worked for me, but there is no warranty you will have the same luck. maybe some else can comment on this?
[Desire HD Android Development] babooandroid:
Hey how did you manage to flash a custom ROM, I failed to flash clockwork recovery via fastboot.. My cidnum is not 111.... In bootloader it says ACE PVT SHIP S OFF RL... thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] woti23:
i rooted and downgraded (firmware 2.5xx) first to a stock firmware (1.32xx) - than made the phone eng s-off and installed cwm recovery. then installed rcmix3d 4.0, flashed the older kernel from the above post, and used the gfree program to radio s-off and reverted back to the kernel from rcmix. than fastboot flashed a new radio.

hope this helps
[Desire HD Android Development] roterhimmel:
I have the exact same problem. i flashed the latest version of android revolution and also tried to flash the recommended radio. radio s-off tool tells me "unknown error. probably connection?" though.

so i just flashed the kernel you recommended but when i reboot now, the screen stays black.

i flashed it running the android revolution rom. might that be the problem?

also once i have done this step and flashed the radio that is recommended for android revolution, can i just flash the rom from recovery or do i have to change the kernel in a whole different step?

thanks in advance
[Desire HD Android Development] woti23:
this is right, the current rom you have (and which i had, rcmix) does NOT work with the old kernel. but mine booted at least. and while it booted i used

adb shell

to get in, made /system readwriteable, and used the program gfree (which i first copied to the phone and made executable) to radio s-off. after that i rebooted to recovery and flashed back the original kernel. not quite the best solution but it worked and i did not have to flash a whole older rom and flash my current rom again.
[Desire HD Android Development] nteeb:
It's simple,the guy who sold his dhd for you has reverted to stock by installing a stock software(2.50).The RUU deleted the root,eng s-off and cwm recovery.But to revert radio s-on is a little bit more complicated(you need temprooted 1.32 firmware while running jkoljo's Easy Radio Tool to gain radio s-on).It seems that he didn't do that.That's why you still have radio s-off.But nothing else.

All you need to do is:

-running a stock,1.32 RUU(it' simple,while you have radio s-off)

-root with visionary

-(gain eng s-off with jkoljo's other great tool:Easy S-OFF tool)

-install 4ExtRecoveryUpdater/Controll or RomManager to flash cwm recovery

-flash a rom you like

-flash a newer radio.

Can't unlock SIM - keep getting "Unknown error, probably connection"

I'm running mike1986's Android Revolution 6.3.1 (fantastic ROM) and his recommended radio on my Vodafone UK Desire HD.

I've been trying to use this tool to unlock sim but I keep getting "Unknown error, probably connection". I've followed the troubleshooting tips but still no joy and have tried using different PCs as well.

I'm wondering would it make a difference if I tried the procedure again after downgrading ROM to 1.32.405.6 WWE?

Or does the ROM / radio not affect the tool, as the phone is already rooted?
[Desire HD Android Development] djolebih:
Go back to page 1 of this thread and download this.

EasyS-OFF_05.zip - [Click for QR Code] (747.4 KB, 78363 views)

It can do a SIM unlock as well and if you have already been there and still have the same problem, chances are you didn't do something right.

hello,

i have ENG S-OFF and CID - 11111111,

can i flash a new radio with above settings? or i have to first make Radio S-OFF also?

[Desire HD Android Development] Michael1712:
Hello,

i've got a question about using the tool.

The USB-port of my DHD is broken and I want to send it in for warranty.

For that I have to get back to S-ON.

But unfortunately, because of the broken USB-port I cannot use the ADB via cable.

Instead I want to try using adbwireless.

Do you think it is possible, or has someone experience in that?

I already opened a thread for my problem (broken USB) and some great guys gave me advise of using adbwireless.

Perhaps someone has an idea or can help me how to give the established adbwireless connetion to the one-click tool in order to set S-ON?

thanks

Michael

can this method works on Inspire 4G?
[Desire HD Android Development] abumaha:
always erorr connection
[Desire HD Android Development] mohammadsp:
my friend used the method

he says when he hits temproot now! it says rooting device and then goes dead!

what's wrong?
[Desire HD Android Development] Muikkuman:
What version of android is he on?
[Desire HD Android Development] mohammadsp:
I'll ask

thanks for reply

be right back as soon as I got the version
[Desire HD Android Development] mohammadsp:
android version is : 2.3.3
[Desire HD Android Development] Muikkuman:
First of all I think revolutionary only works on android 2.1 or lower(I may be wrong) or he haven't got USB debugging on.
[Desire HD Android Development] mohammadsp:
thanks for the reply

and what method do you suggest that he can use to root his device?

It is S-OFF but does not have root acces
[Desire HD Android Development] Muikkuman:
As he already got s-off, He can flash superuser app trough recovery, and update su binary (within the app) to gain root access.

Download from this webpage:

http://goo.im/superuser/Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip

If he doesn't got a custom recovery the he can flash one using this guide:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vHaDlRFocU&feature=youtube_gdata_player

(I know its not a desire HD but the process is still the same)

I would recommend 4 ext touch recovery in that case, can be downloaded here:

http://www.4ext.net/ddl/ace/recovery.zip

Recovery forum: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1587844
[Desire HD Android Development] mohammadsp:
I'm really thankful for your responses

he flashed SU from recovery and updated the su binary

again no success in root access :(

any idea my friend?
[Desire HD Android Development] Muikkuman:
Your welcome :)

Have he tried to see if he got root access by using root checker from market or by typing su in terminal emulator?

Otherwise he should try Advanced ace hack kit.

But be sure to read the manual until you completely understand it.

thanks my friend

it is solved by using the latest su

I am s-off . I would like to have superuser super-cid-11111111

I would like to flash a radio

Will this tool give me super - cid
[Desire HD Android Development] Muikkuman:
Are you on stock Rom?
[Desire HD Android Development] K4get:
No I am on ice cold sandwich 8.2 test 5.4
[Desire HD Android Development] Muikkuman:
Well then you should be rooted, you don't need super-cid and I can't hel you with flashing radios as I haven't done it ever
[Desire HD Android Development] K4get:
Yes I am already shipped s-off RL . and would like eng s-off

and superuser cid 11111111 so I can install radio's and such

I am running Ice Cold Sandwich 8.2 test 5.4

Can I get here using this tool or do I have to downgrade first ?

any info is appreciated, thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] Teichopsia:
I believe there is another method to flashing radios which doesn't require radio-off, and which is relatively safer, but I may be wrong. It would use the PDM98img.zip name format.

Sent from a dream.
[Desire HD Android Development] Muikkuman:
Radio can only be flashed trought bootloader.
[Desire HD Android Development] K4get:
Yes that is how I did it the PD98IMG.zip way in hboot . however I still would like superuser cid 11111111 for what ever reason .

I have it on my HTC One XL so I am a little spoiled I guess .

however thank you for helping :cool::cool::good:
[Desire HD Android Development] Muikkuman:
But why do you want supercid when its useless on a custom Rom?
[Desire HD Android Development] Lambetts:
No go unfortunately. Visionary looks like its waiting for root perms...which makes no sense. I run it and do temproot and it just sits there...black screen and the phone is chugging if I try and get out of it...what am I doing wrong?

Thanks...isnt there a normal way to s-off? just flash a bootloader or something? I don't see how you need root for s-offing... root is adb specific, and s-on/off is generally "before" all root stuff... so, I dont understand that. haha.

ADB wifi support

Hi,

I've busted my microUSB (could not charge and plugin to PC) and wanted to claimed for warranty.

But obviously I need to unroot and S-On it back.

Can I use this tool over wifi ADB?

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] jfellon:
Nope cannot be done WiFi has to be connected to the USB . I understand the micro USB problem I encountered it on my 1st phone. But I what I did kind of a fun process but I purchased a damaged phone with a toasted screen took it apart and used the lower portion of the phones motherboard and made sure I followed the directions online for screen replacement instructions and I did it in about 3hrs total its not hard just need the replacement board which can be bought on eBay and the tools or if u have a friend or a shop that can do a screen replacement ask them if u brought them a board can they instal that one for u
[Desire HD Android Development] broncogr:
you will need to flash again the custom rom you are using from recovery.

Get into recovery

Mounts and ....

select format boot, format system and format cache

go back and select install zip from sdcard then select your custom rom and flash it.

your phone should work after that
[Desire HD Android Development] dstenc:
Thanks for the info and for the new version where you can restore custom stock CID instead only HTC__01.

I had CID-HTC__32 instead Super CID-11111111 because I've used different method to S-Off the phone. Now, I've repeated process but this time with your tool and I have Super CID.

Excellent work!

thank u for any guidance

Thank you - got the tool working once Sim card was registered with Network.

Fabulous tool, unlocked my Orange UK

So simple - Now happily running custom Rom - Thank you.
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
The forum search would have helped you, this has been answered before in this thread. This tool is safer to use (very safe), but it lacks engineering bootloader functionality (fastboot, kernel update utility). This is more easily reversible to stock.

Hi,

I have older version of S-OFF (15 days ago) so what to do to put new veersion?

You mean the standard S-OFF or this Radio S-OFF?

If standard, just run the tool. If Radio, you do not have to do anything.

BTW here is a video of this tool in action:

First check the troubleshooting at first page. Then try it again. Make sure you allow superuser.

you mean allow superuser in visionary? yes i did it. i dont get any when i s-off..

This never worked for me.

I'm guessing it is something to do with the Samsung SD card as no files wrote to my SD card. Is there no way around this other than having to purchase a new SD card?
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Unfortunately no, but first make sure that you have HTC Sync installed and USB Debugging enabled.
[Desire HD Android Development] halfdan.k:
this worked for me no frills no thrills, part7 backup appeared on SD as planned. However the video was somewhat less than instructional I'd say - hard to see the critical stuff on the phone screen (in boot mode)

what if i just flash using rom.zip from the bootloader. will it restored back to S-ON?

---------- Post added at 04:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:52 PM ----------

I thought of doing the following methods in order to restore back to stock (S-ON and original CID):

1) flash PG98IMG.zip from build 1.32.xx to restore the Eng hboot back to normal.

2) by doing this, I guess it should switch back to S-ON with my original CID?

- coz in OP's direction, in order to S-ON back, you need to flash back to 1.32.xx and then run the tool

3) then, I use PG98IMG.zip from build 3.13.xx to flash to the current stock ROM.
