When I try to install it from the recovery mode, I got : "Error in /sdcard/update.zip (status 7)".

I'm looking on the web if there some same trouble resolved. I found some topic about the NExus one having the same issue... Now we have to find how solve this...
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
yes! I'm waiting now for answer from htc support... maybe them will give a good solution?

and i'm downloading now the update from my phone one more time :-D
[Legend General] thugzie:
the same here.. tried to update trough recovery mode.. no luck though.
[Legend General] PandaVoyageur:
Red exclamation mark at 25%-33%

SD card has 248MB left, internal memory is now 45MB (I removed some apps after first error), so I don't think it's related to free space...

Note that my phone was originally branded (SFR - Vodafone France), but previous OTA updates worked fine :'(
[Legend General] thugzie:
after I40 user:

From OTA_Legend_Froyo_S_HTC_WWE_3.15.405.3-2.05.405.2_release_160.zip extract firmware.zip from it, rename it to LEGEIMG.zip and put it on your sdcard.

Reboot into recovery.

im just trying that.
[Legend General] ab1cor:
After all these weeks waiting because HTC was "testing" we have an "official" **** that doesn't install... hell yeah! :)
[Legend General] kleutscher:
also trying:)
[Legend General] kleutscher:
tried it and get an error "CID incorrect!"

doesnt this mean that you need an goldcard?

hope not becouse i broke my cardreader:P
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
it's really true. I'm laughing... :D :D
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
this method want a goldcard...
[Legend General] kleutscher:
if im lucky my other sd card is still an goldcard:D

ill give it a try.
[Legend General] jorgesalvador:
The error seems to be because of the CID, anyone getting that probably needs a goldcard inserted before trying the update, I forgot mine at home booo :(
[Legend General] thugzie:
still no luck..

do I need a goldcard to apply this update from sd?
[Legend General] Guybrush02:
I'm sorry I'm a sort of noob with terminology but... what's a goldcard ?

Is this SD card related ? Is the packaged card a goldcard ? (I'm currently using my old 8gb I had with my Touch HD...)

(Edited: Ok, I found some explanations... Whaaw! Do we really need to do all this stuff just for an official update from HTC ??)
[Legend General] shara6:
what's the difference between the CID check problem and the HBOOT version?? if you have the right HBOOT version (1.01) will the CID check pass the installation??
[Legend General] nolook:
just checked my phone's cid (stock virgin canada 2.1) and its BM___001
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
**** this system!!! We must do something... ahhgrrr

it's crazy
[Legend General] kleutscher:
i cant find de rom.zip in C:\Documents and Settings\your user\Local Settings\Temp\

When started and see gray screen(not close)

wich gray screen do you mean when starting the RUU?

update:

found it:D
[Legend General] i4o:
:) mean first screen on RUU instalation application.

А path may be C:\Users\your user\AppData\Local\Temp for win7
[Legend General] kleutscher:
trying to install.

post result shortly.
[Legend General] ab1cor:
I have just downgraded from 2.05 and installed the original Voda ROM (http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped...6.35.04_7.05.35.26L_release_126590_signed.exe). Now I'll try to offiacially upgrade to Froyo...

BTW this is the guide to downgrade: http://www.devril.es/android/(tutorial)-root-en-htc-legend-2-03-y-1-32-(downgrade-a-1-31)/

(it's in spanish, use a traductor)
[Legend General] kleutscher:
hmmmm weird.

it kinda did something but didnt work.

replace the rom.zip with firmware.zip like you said.

started the ruu process and this time it installed everything:D

no error[140]

but my phone is still bootlooping.

but hey maybe its a step further.

the strange thing is why replace rom.zip with firmware.zip.

rom.zip is like 150mb and firmware.zip is 15mb.

much smaller.

is all the data that is needed like the rom.zip in the firmware.zip?
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
i don't think so... that you need exact this 15 mb. There is only 1/10 part of all O_o
[Legend General] h0m3r16:
hi :).

I also have the bootloop problem....
[Legend General] i4o:
For now we only have this :(
[Legend General] kleutscher:
i compared the rom.zip from RUU_Legend_Froyo_S_Vodafone_FR_3.14.163.1_Radio_47 .51.35.17_7.13.35.05_release_156976_signed.exe

with the firmware.zip from

OTA_Legend_Froyo_S_HTC_WWE_3.15.405.3-2.05.405.2_release_160.zip

rom.zip has:

android-info.txt 0.086mb

boot.img 2.5mb

hboot_7227_legend_1.00.0000_101013.nb0 0.22mb

radio.img 10.5mb

rcdata.img 0.087mb

recovery.img 3mb

splash1.nb0 0.4mb

system.img 137mb

userdata.img 2.1mb

firmware.zip has:

android-info.txt 0.13mb

boot.img 2.5mb

hboot_7227_legend_1.00.0000_101013.nb0 0.22mb

radio.img 10.5mb

rcdata.img 0.054mb

recovery.img 3mb

so the firmware.zip is missng the system.img/splash01.nb0 and userdata.img

i know from rooting older phones i always needed a system.img but maybe its using the older system.img from the previous version.
[Legend General] kleutscher:
welcome to the club.:)

im not stopping till someone or i find a fix:p

dont wanna pay money for a repair.
[Legend General] aneesh45:
I didn't follow the entire thread, but did you compare the cidnum on 'android-info.txt' on the rom.zip and firmware.zip?
[Legend General] h0m3r16:
thanx :).

I live in Costa Rica, so finding someone who can repair my phone isnt a option haha.
[Legend General] kleutscher:

wat if if change the firmware zip info.txt and add

or does the info.txt do nothing with the cid check. would be to easy:P
[Legend General] aneesh45:
Yeah, I was thinking that, but I'm a n00b.. Dunno how to sign the zip.
[Legend General] kleutscher:
im a noob too and dont want to brick my phone any further:p

but if this bypasses the cid check and installs it right it would be to easy:)

but i still find it strange that there isnt any system.img in the firmware.zip.

and that the firmware.zip is so small compared to other RUU
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
this looks very good. but need one guy who will be like investigator :-)

without any fear of brick... :-)

theoretically - this way is cool 85% ...

practically - we will see.

Need to find a way to sign .zip

or maybe let's try to use clockworkmod recovery for update.zip
[Legend General] h0m3r16:
i have all my faith in you guys :)
[Legend General] buusing:
Just got a reply from HTC support, and they said that i had to do a hard reset, but if that didn't work, i was suppost to send my phone to repair. I tried to do a Hard reset, but that didn't work, so im going to send it tomorrow :( god i hate HTC right now :(
[Legend General] Guybrush02:
A new attempt this evening. This time, it's not about SetupWizard.apk but about Facebook.apk. So I don't think my problem is "cid"-related. It seems that the system check failed at random point. I contacted HTC support but I've no hope about this... (And I'm sure if I send the phone back to HTC for warrantly, they'll just wipe the device and I'll be stuck in 2.1).

(Edited : previous post is exactly what I didn't want... :'()
[Legend General] thugzie:
I managed to install froyo by fota without a problem of red triangle wich was during SD install.
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
what? You can write more ?

what you do ?
[Legend General] kleutscher:
how did you do that?

you downloaded the ota file?

did you rename it like update.zip or legeimg.zip?
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
Thread Views: 10,345

It's crazy...
[Legend General] kleutscher:
yeah when i made the thread i didnt knew that it would be this big.

so there are many with the same problem:) good news
[Legend General] h0m3r16:
i try renaming the OTA_Legend_Froyo_S_HTC_WWE_3.15.405.3-2.05.405.2_release_160357lpbd4myxuoe8m8jr.zip, as update.zip.

and whit the system recovery try to "apply" it, and them this give me a error, assert failed: file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == .... etc

xD
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
yes, we tried this way about 9 hours ago :-D

___

I'm waiting for @thugnigga's answer !
[Legend General] kleutscher:
im still wresteling with the android-info.txt

they are almost identical expect of the cid numbers.

im still trying to find out by googling if the android-info.txt has something to do with the cid check.

or that it is just a cid info document so you can see for wich cid it is avaible.

im not getting any wiser with googling.
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
i think thats google will not help with it... because we are the first in this trying...

Need to test new ways to solving. It will be very good if we will have 1 HTC Legend for testing :-D
[Legend General] senm:
I am reading the post and not a single solve.

I didn't brick my phone yet.

What i find strange that people who didn't do anything with the phone they have the same problem.

I debranded my phone so i undrstand wy it won't work for me.
[Legend General] kleutscher:
yeah we tried.

the problem so far are the cid numbers.

the cid number for a vodafone is different then the cid numbers in the ota for unbranded.

thats why we cant install the update and it wont let us install.

i find it strange that the vodafone cid numbers where accepted in the first part of froyo fota (2.05) and in the 3.15 update arent supported.

that is why it created a problem. bad move from vodafone and htc.

the people with bootloop has the problem that we are on hboot 1.01. the vodafone rom only has hboot 1.00.

so if we try to install a different rom we get a error[140]wrong bootloader version.

but if we can get the vodafone cid numbers be accepted in the ota unbranded rom we can flash it. everyone with the red traingle status 7 problem or the bootloopers.

the bootloopers still can flash the rom through RUU or LEGEIMG.zip or UPDATE.zip

but we need those cid numbers fixed.
[Legend General] senm:
What do u want to try? Or does it mean i will brick my phone.
[Legend General] kleutscher:
dont try anything with flashing.

but if you cant find a way that the vodafone cid numbers are accepted in the 3.15 update or that the 3.15 update doesnt check the cids it would be great
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
we want to try to rebuild OTA update file with the extra CID numbers, after this make a signed .zip which will be updatable from our devices - and thats all ... theoretically..

For now we need to find a way to make a good signed .zip
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
where is thugnigga ?

He makes something! =))) And now his Legend running with FroYo.

p.s. For today i hate FroYo, but i want it.
[Legend General] kleutscher:
google helps alot to understand what files do becouse im learning:)

im a complete noob so i need to find out what files do:p

i will try things only if i understand what im doing that is why i am checkin and learning to understand the android-info.txt part. so google helps me in that part:).

still i have the problem that i dont have a cardreader or something to place files on my goldcard:mad::)
[Legend General] Guybrush02:
My cid is Htc__e11, a good one, but update still fails :)

I'm expecting a new update from htc soon as "new users" are also concerned.
[Legend General] kleutscher:
didnt you have the problem that the froyo update was installed but only after starting froyo it gave you a android.com.etc.etc something like that and rebooted?
[Legend General] kleutscher:
hahahha elvis has left the building:mad::p

what i hate is that vodafone gives loads of money to htc to release their froyo update first and as revenge htc deletes the vodafone cid numbers in their update so that people are going to complain by vodafone:p
[Legend General] Guybrush02:
Sorry but no. The whole thing failed during the update, at about 30%.
[Legend General] h0m3r16:
but my phone isnt from vodafone.

I buy it, from a canadian ebay "store"
[Legend General] BWhite22:
If this will help anyone (sorry if I am restating anything glaringly obvious) here's my story:

Bell Canada SIM-unlocked Legend bought second-hand, ROM 2.02.666.3 I believe.

A couple weeks ago, flashed WWE 2.03.405.3 RUU onto the phone using a goldcard, no issues after that. (Did this in anticipation of FroYo WWE)

This morning, attempted FroYo OTA - which failed at about 33% with the red triangle. After that, (stupidly) flashed the OTA onto the phone using either 'update.zip' or 'LEGEIMG.zip' method (sorry, don't recall it was early in the morning)

Currently updated, from the look of it, with 3.15.405.3 and HBOOT-1.01.0000. Stuck in a boot loop.

I've attempted to flash back older RUU's but of course these fail with error 140 due to (I believe) the updated HBOOT version. I have also used the Vodafone rom.zip -> rom1.zip hack described in this thread, and the RUU did complete successfully, but that has not resolved the boot loop. I don't know exactly which version is technically loaded right now.

I called HTC and exhaustively described the situation but the staffer I got indicated that reloading back to a complete stock (ROM + HBOOT) is apparently impossible, even for HTC. That smacks of annoyingly restrictive design.

Anyway, I've never rooted before and haven't actually used ADB, but I'd be willing to be a bit of a test case for some of this stuff if that would help at all. I really, really want a working Legend regardless of whether or not it's FroYo.
[Legend General] dolph2005:
Hi all.

I also have same problem

My cid htc_044
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
muhahah....our community is a greatest community in a hole Android space...

**** YOU HTC! Make a cross-based updates....

thugnigga, please...tell us about your steps to bypass red triangle
[Legend General] kleutscher:
welcome:)

what antihazard described is what we need to do:

we want to try to rebuild OTA update file with the extra CID numbers, after this make a signed .zip which will be updatable from our devices - and thats all ... theoretically..

For now we need to find a way to make a good signed .zip

so we need to find a way to add the cid numbers or completely delete the cid number check, out of the data, in a nuttshell

we found the info in the android-info.txt almost being identical only different cid numbers. in vodafone froyo update vodafone cid number in htc froyo update htc cid numbers.

but i still dont understand exactly what the android-info.txt exactly does. thats what i want to find out at this moment.
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
kleutscher, exactly... but i think that we can't completely delete cid checks... Because in the update-script a lot of checks and it is quite possible that the verification of CID linked to another i don't know what :-D
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
Hey, guys! I will write now to one Android guru... I think that he will help us.

He help to me 3 times when i used HTC G1 (Dream).

it's good idea :-)
[Legend General] BWhite22:
Thanks Kleutscher. I forgot to mention in my post that I DID update to 2.05.405.2 OTA in advance of FroYo - the update from yesterday that MarkMoons (HTC) etc were talking about.
[Legend General] dolph2005:
Hmm. I think that HTC Make a cross-based updates, but it will happen later.

P.S. We can not sign the firmware, because we do not have private HTC SSL CERT.
[Legend General] kleutscher:
i did exactly what you did all the same steps.

there are 3 groups in this thread

1 with branded cid numbers stuck at red triangle like we wwhere first

2 with unbranded cid numbers als stuck at the red triangle

3 the bootloopers that went a stupidly step further trying to legeimg.zip or update.zip the fota:p

number 1 and 2 still can go back to 2.1 and have a working phone number 3 need to find a fix to get a working phone.

for all to get 2.2 we need to achieve the cid number problem
[Legend General] nolook:
so there is no way to downgrade (change) the ro.cid to an unbranded one? it will always stay the same? this would avoid having to re-sign the update with updated CID's

i know on nokia it was possible to change a similar id # to install diff firmware...why did htc make it so 'locked down'?
[Legend General] kleutscher:
yeah all help is welcome, especially from pro developers:p
[Legend General] dieno1001:
email or link the update to me

can someone email or link the update on a hosting site, i have two of the phones and i would like to mess around with it
[Legend General] bwilliams1:
Bell Canada [ro.cid]: [BM___001]

BWhite22, you can get back to the bell firmware, download it from shipped roms. I followed the instructions here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=725430 to downgrade the phone then applied the stock bell firmware again.

[Legend General] YoungPretender:
Well, I've been messing about with the FroYo zip file and the down grade "Application" for vodafone phones. The one with the massive system.img file.

I'm guessing these img files are linux ext3 or ext4 image files?

So, I'm downloading ubuntu to boot from cd to have a look in them, as WinImage, Alcohol 52% and WinRaR can't read them.

Hopefully if I can see what's inside them, we can remake them somehow with the FroYo OS, then package them back into the Vodafone downgrade application, tricking it into thinking it's V.1.32 when it's actually 3.15.

Well, it's a long shot, but I'm going to give it a try.....
[Legend General] bwilliams1:
ANtiHazarD, Thanks.
[Legend General] kleutscher:
sorry he cant. he crossed the line of no turning back when he tried to update from sd card.

we are the bootloopers with the newest hboot 1.01:mad:
[Legend General] BWhite22:
Awesome, I will try it out - actually I was eyeing that thread earlier. Quick question: the instructions have this:

FOR ALL OS's Make sure your phone has Applications->Development->USB Debugging turned on.

Do NOT have your phone in Disk Drive Mode, have it in Charge Only.

That doesn't apply to my poor bootlooped self. Can I ignore that?

I promise a full "trip report" once I have a chance to try this!
[Legend General] kleutscher:
it wont work.

you cant set debugging on and its needed.

also you need adb acces what doesnt work.

only fastboot:mad:

also tried it but we whent a step too far:mad:

if you find a way to get adb to work and putting usb debugging on then it can work.

sorry to bash your hope:)
[Legend General] tplotplo:
My situation is even more weird, the phone just don't see the OTA when I check for it. It didn't found the2.05 update yesterday neither.

So basically, right now I'm stuck with:

2.1-update1

Radio: 47.39.35.09U_7.08.35.21

Build: 2.03.405.3 CL183823 release-keys

I undbranded my phone which was a SFR (Vodafone france) with a goldcard.
[Legend General] kleutscher:
then i would suggest to stay on 2.03 becouse the 2.05 has the sms bug and 3.15 froyo doesnt work on an debranded vodafone phone at this moment:)

or try to rebrand you phone to a vodafone ruu and after that install the vodafone froyo update if that is possible
[Legend General] tplotplo:
Indeed I prefer stay in smooth 2.1 debranded HTC with all the widget, options (USB broadband) than take back all the VODAFONE crap featured with "their" 2.2.

I will update to "real" 2.2 when genius will find a way to do it :)

Cheers

TP
[Legend General] kleutscher:
i tweeted markmoons with the question why they deleted the vodafone cid numbers out of the froyo update and not in the 2.05 update and etc. and if there will be a fix.

but i dont expect an answer from him he never answers back.
[Legend General] h0m3r16:
2.1 was so nice....

i hope someone find a solution :(
[Legend General] bwilliams1:
I give for now, finally rooted my bell legend and installed the latest mcr for it.
[Legend General] kleutscher:
yeah same here.

but im a bit in a deathspot:(

but still finding and trying.
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
kleutscher, your phone is still not working ?
[Legend General] kleutscher:
found this part of info

UPDATED FASTBOOT INFO - from toastcfh

By going into supercid mode on fastboot, we are able to flash our own PC36IMG.zip files w/o having HTC signed keys through the bootloader.

Entering supercid mode is done through two commands:

fastboot oem h

fastboot oem changeCid 00000000

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=704640

and this about the android info.txt

The hbootpreupdate I am not sure about though, all I know is a large portion of the people who bricked their phones trying to root 2.02 did it by flashing a pc36img.zip with the wrong hbootpreupdate setting.

android-info.txt

nope my phone is still bootlooping. and it only can be fixed by finding a bypass for the cid. or waiting for new updates with hboot 1.01 and accepting cid from vodafone
[Legend General] ANtiHazarD:
oh...nice try man... :-(

i will go to sleep... see you tomorrow guys! :-)
[Legend General] kleutscher:
more info

To find out if an RUU is compatible for your ROM, the value displayed by fastboot oem gencheckpt has to be included in the cidnum list of the RUU. If it isnt included, you will need to use a goldcard to bypass the cidnum checks done by the RUU.

Check if you have made a goldcard (A goldcard is a special microsd card you made while your device was in working condition. It will allow you to restore your device using a generic RUU or an OTA). The purpose of a goldcard is that when apparently incompatible ROMs are flashed with a goldcard inside the device, the flashing process skips certain checks like the Customer ID check (and hence no CID error)

[Legend General] GTMike87:
hi, I want to go back to vodafone

now i have 2.05 (released yesterday), my phone was debranded time ago and i can't install froyo (red triangle)

i'm trying to install this RUU (goldcard in) (RUU_Legend_Vodafone_UK_1.32.161.4_R_Radio_47.26.35 .04_7.05.35.26L_release_126590_signed.exe

) to go back to vodafone

but when installing, error[140]: error version bootloader
[Legend General] iodine:
HTC really figured out how to disable the debranded users from receiving the Froyo update.

I don't believe HTC has ever checked for CID before. Removing this check is pretty straight forward. The only hard part is how to successfully install an update.zip not signed by HTC. Only way I know is through RomManager.
[Legend General] BWhite22:
You're telling me... this whole affair really seems like a big middle finger to enthusiasts, to be honest. The annoying part to me however is that I have been extremely happy with Sense and the Legend's build quality so far, so even if my phone really is perma-bricked, I have this urge to buy another Legend.

EDIT: Kleutscher: Absolutely, I would only want to buy an unbranded out-of-the-box WWE version. I wonder if anyone still sells these new, internationally even.
[Legend General] kleutscher:
same here only not a branded one anymore:p

but still i dont like the way this is going. the whole android idea is dissapeard.

but still i dont think our phone is a perma brick.

only we need some more updates from vodafone and htc with hboot 1.01.
[Legend General] h0m3r16:
this.

Lets wait....
[Legend General] iodine:
Why don't you try applying 1.31 root patches with a Gold Card?

At least you could get it booting, then flash the stock rom again?

[Legend General] BWhite22:
Can we do that with HBOOT 1.01?
