[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
No. Your phone isn't connecting. Relaunch the program, and try again. Make sure usb debugging is enabled in settings > applications and fastboot disabled also.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jhardamon:
Ok all went well with the exploit step Bubby, thanks a bunch! And after that step am I finished or do I move on to the optional button? (Sorry for the cascade of questions)
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
If you have the revised program with autorun enabled downloaded if you could possibly mirror the program that would be great. A torrent would also be nice, I'm sure we can get many seeders at this rate, if it's timing out my website server.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
Those additional/optional options aren't finished yet, and won't work, wait till tomorrow for that. ;) Your no bother.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jwlyons:
Redoing the gold card and starting over from scratch now.

Just for clarification, it's okay if when I am using the one click exe that the SD card shows up in Explorer? Or should I eject it from the computer?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
When you connect your phone to your computer it'll ask you what mode you want to be in, you want charge only mode. So yes eject the sd card or the scripts can't put things on it. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] jhardamon:
I really really appreciate all of your help for a n00b like myself that's coming from an iPhone buddy. So after completing the exploit step to flash the radio, what's left?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
After the exploit button you go back to the other command prompt window that's opened, and continue following directions there. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
I'm about ready to call it a night guys, now that everything seems to have sorted itself out, issue wise.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jhardamon:
You mean in terminal? Because no window opened.....
[HTC Inspire 4G] jwlyons:
Right, my phone is in charge only mode (it says so in the notification bar at least), but it automatically shows up in Explorer as a removable disk.. weird.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
No, the one you were at before the very first command prompt that came from the first button with the 1 by it. That other window go back to it and follow those directions.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
I'm off to bed. I'll check up on you guys in the morning. :) Goodnight.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ljwnow:
You got it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] littlezipp:
Thread moving too fast, so I will post this again...

I am getting the following error after HBOOT loads the first image:

Main Version is older!

Update Fail!

Press <POWER> to reboot.

What am I doing wrong?

I've made 2 different Goldcards now as well as reset the phone to factory defaults.
[HTC Inspire 4G] habanosrus:
Sorry for being a pain in the ass with all these questions. I do have USB debugging and Fastbook disabled. Just pushed through to the exploit and seem to have pushed the cooked ATT stock rom to the phone. Got the message that says I have S-OFF. Looking at the HBOOT screen it says I have S-OFF but it was showing that I did not have a valid ROM file.

It's now asking my to start update? Should I say YES even though it did not find a PD98IMG.ZIP file?

Pushing cooked ATT stock rom for restore, this may take a while.

1600 KB/s (275585533 bytes in 168.115s)

You should now have S-OFF, but let's check and make sure.

Press any key to continue . . .

Looking for device...

The script will not continue if your phone is not connected.

Does your bootloader say S-OFF? If it does then you have S-OFF.

Press any key to continue . . .

Awesome, now that you have S-OFF we can flash a cooked stock ROM with root and c

lockwork built in.

Select bootloader if need be.

Let the bootloader scan for the PD98IMG.zip, and apply the update just as before

.

When it's done press power to reboot into the rom, and press enter to continue.

Press any key to continue . . .
[HTC Inspire 4G] jhardamon:
Oh, I think I understand....I've been closing the command prompt windows after they've finished but I have to keep them open if I understand correctly....damn! Ok I will start from the beginning.....
[HTC Inspire 4G] jlusco:
I see it became a rerelease so did anything change so far or was it a bug fix
[HTC Inspire 4G] Pheno.menon:
Same problem here.. gonna try to run it again.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Pheno.menon:
Model ID incorrect!

Update Fail!

Press <POWER> to reboot.

Is what I'm getting. Gonna try making another goldcard with the new simpler method..
[HTC Inspire 4G] littlezipp:
Made Gold Card #3 and re-ran the 1-click...

Prompts are completely different this time. I'm guessing bad Gold Cards, new one works.

Failed cards - Sandisk 512mb, 8gb class 4

Card that worked - 8GB Sandisk Ultra Class 6
[HTC Inspire 4G] jwlyons:
I give up. :(

Tried two different SD cards, formatted both of them multiple times and gone through the gold card process multiple times as well (both the manual method in the original hack kit and the exe linked to in this thread) and I keep getting the same two errors.

Error opening backup file

&

failed to copy dwngrd.zip to '/sdcard/PD98IMG.zip': Read-only file system

Here's a question.. I get a different number for each gold card. Is that correct? Or should the number be a phone specific thing?

*edit* by gold card I mean per SD card I get a different number
[HTC Inspire 4G] Timelord83:
i wouldn't try to use his software with less than a 2gb card. the roms are about 260mb each and i am not sure if hes copying both at the same time or just one at a time plus the backups it makes.. using less than a 2gb just seems unwise. i haven't had a chance to use his software yet but i rooted mine with attn1 ace hack and ended up using my 8gb that came with it..
[HTC Inspire 4G] Timelord83:
what mode is the usb in ?? charge or disk?
[HTC Inspire 4G] jwlyons:
The phone claims charge, but since Windows automatically mounts it I'm thinking it's defaulting to disk somehow.

I'm also getting the mmap() failed error now as well
[HTC Inspire 4G] Timelord83:
make sure your HTC Sync Software is not running little phone icon the taskbar.. also drag the top bar down on your phone and it should list the USB with what its in..hit it and reselect charge..if it really was stuck in disk mode, you should see the drive letter dismount on my computer
[HTC Inspire 4G] jwlyons:
That was open, closed it going to redo it now. SD card needs to be unmounted on phone as well right?
[HTC Inspire 4G] californiarailroader:
Well, a couple of minor issues, one is that when I reboot into CWM Recovery it reboots to the HTC screen, then about 10 seconds later the screen fades to black and I have to do a battery pull. Another, the Superuser Permissions App started to Force Close, I went into ROM Manager and fixed permissions, rebooted and that was fine. If anybody has any ideas, let me know, thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] californiarailroader:
Night Bubby, thanks again and have a good rest!
[HTC Inspire 4G] jhardamon:
I FINALLY GOT IT!!!! Ahhhhh, the sweet taste of being rooted, lol. I just wanted to give a big thanks to Bubby, not just for his GUI but for his answers to all of our questions after releasing it. It would have been easy to release a buggy version and just call it a day but dude stayed and helped forum members out and re-released an improved version in the same day!!! Props to you bro and get some sleep....you've earned it!!!!

To those that are having problems, for 9 out of 10 of you it's most likely due to incorrect gold card creation. I used my stock 8GB card and used the Gold Card Helper app from the market to get my reverse mmid2 value and inputed that into the gold card tool found at the beginning of the post to get the gold card image and used the tool to finish creating my gold card. To all that are still having problems, I'm a complete n00b and was able to flash mine and my girlfriends Inspire. It took a couple tries but hang in there.

My problem came because I wasn't leaving the command prompt windows open. You

MUST

leave the first command prompt window open as well as the second one to complete the entire process. Just follow the instructions in the command prompt windows and you'll be successful. Remember too, that after your phone reboots you may or may not have to recheck USB debugging and make sure fastboot is turned off or the command prompt windows won't recognize that your phone is plugged in.

Hopefully this helps some who are stuck or who have lost hope. Good luck to everyone on here doing this method and I look forward to seeing what the Bub-ster is cooking up next. Good nite!:D:D:D
[HTC Inspire 4G] Cwluc:
Seriously this is great work, thank you so much for all of this.

Just a small favor to ask. If you are going to keep updating the app and revising it could you please add a version number or some way of identifying the download (before it's completed) than just linking on the forums with a "revised version" added to the text.

Again thank you kindly, works like a charm. Keep up the great work.
[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
My 2 cents

First of all I wanted to thank the OP and all who have helped him with his efforts here.

Finally took the plunge S-Off enabled, rooted installed the radio and threw on a custom Rom with the stock kernel, unfortunately the Simple One Click only got up to downgrading the Rom and stopped completely.

I can second the comment above about the Gold Card and that it might be the reason why some cant get it working, took me various time to get it up and going.

All else had to be done via HTC Inspire Hack Kit.

I'm now on Android Revolution 4G 2.0.15 and am loving every second of it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Pheno.menon:
It worked! First time around I had issues due to having used a complicated gold card method. After I used the gold card utility in the OP, I got S-Off and Clockwork and all that with the One-Click.

Woot :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] californiarailroader:
Any ideas? I did some googling, and it looks like it might be something to do with the Slcd, but I can't be sure.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Pheno.menon:
Is there a way to make it boot into CWM without the bootloader (asides from ROM Manager)? It seems unnecessary to have to select "Recovery" in the bootloader just to get to CWM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RBDH:
I'm also having a problem with cwm recovery going from the HTC screen to a black screen. Was this supposed to have cwm already installed or we just use the one in the market? (yeah, stupid question but its my first android phone and I'm still learning)

And great work Bubby. This did in 2 tries what I couldn't get done with the hack kit in a week.
[HTC Inspire 4G] blainetaylor:
As an FYI. Anyone who needs to pull the battery I advise not using the Notch you will mess it up. I found it VERY easy if you use your fingernail between the battery door and volume rocker and just pry up. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] citlec53:
My phone now thinks that its a Desire, with a 24 hour clock, and no sound. I'm pretty sure that I hit a wrong button somewhere along the line.

I am currently downloading the new version, and the RUU to put it back to stock.

I tried to run the whole process over again, but got many errors. This is all with the original version. Do I need to go back to stock before I try again or is there another option.

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] mrro82:
You da man bubby! Finally got mine working. I tried the process with the updated exe and it still wouldn't work. Gave me the read only crap about the pd file. So I went a dug out an old SD card. This thing came with my BlackBerry 8310 3 years ago :D. That SD card worked perfectly fine. I had been trying to use a SanDisk SD card and no dice. It's really odd how that works but eh. It's works and I am all gravy. Thanks again bud. Donation inbound.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dunn32:
I am lost.

I have tried 5 times and can't get it to work.

I get mmap() failed. Operation not permitted

Help??

Oh, then when I reboot to install the update I get:

Model ID incorrect!

Update Fail!

Press Power to reboot.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
Make sure your in "charge only" mode, and not disk drive and that HTC Sync isn't running if that doesn't work, redownoad the proram. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] dunn32:
Ok, thanks! Will try!! :)

Update: Didn't work. Redownloading now.

Dang it!!!!! Didn't work still getting mmap() failed. Operation not permitted

Anymore help??
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
You need to remake your gold card, if you have that error.
[HTC Inspire 4G] craigkal:
In your .bat files you have a chevrons ( > ) in a few places. In batch files this is reserved to re-direct output to another file.

You need to replace them with something else because the prompts won't appear to the user. This is why you have a couple of plain text files named usb, applications, Rest in the folder. Its ouputting that text to the seperate files.

For example in run.bat the line:

"echo Press power to reboot. When your phone has rebooted enable USB Debugging in Settings > Applications > USB Debugging."

That never gets displayed to the user. It actually puts some text in files called applications and usb. Just replace the chevrons with commas or something like that.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jwzg:
You're up! Got finished with rooting and s-off last night. Easy enough. The song was cool, BTW. Do you have a timeline for the optional features to be activated?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
Perfect thankyou. :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
I am. :p Awesome. The optional should be available this afternoon with the release of the second beta. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] Loiselle:
This is good news. I look forward to being able to one-click remove all the garbage bloat on here. Thanks a bunch!
[HTC Inspire 4G] driftkidd2323:
Huge congrats on this bubby, what's that new project in your sig?
[HTC Inspire 4G] TheBassman369:
My phone says it's a Desire HD and I have no sound. Help?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
Your not done with the one click keep going. Don't stop. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] mrro82:
With the one click for removing the bloat ware, how will that work? Will we need to go through the entire process again? Just curious.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
No, you'll just have to redownload the program.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Loiselle:
Is that ready to go yet, BTW?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
The optional menu? Not yet.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Loiselle:
Do you have an ETA on it? Just checking cause I am b o r e d right now. :p
[HTC Inspire 4G] TheBassman369:
Okay. It told me to follow the on screen instructions, and then after it finishes updating, do I need to disconnect and reconnect the phone and press enter?

Edit: Never mind, I got it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mrro82:
Awesome. Thanks.
[HTC Inspire 4G] moe3754:
Is it possible to fix the sound after the downgrade so that my phone completely works, reason being all I want is to debrand and be able to load stock HTC Ruu's from shipped rom's with my gold card. I did this with my old Desire and it worked great plus I received all my OTA updates from HTC. I really am not that interested in rooting just debranding and it worked great on the first downgrade but I had no sound, so I flashed the stock AT&T RUU back to get sound.
[HTC Inspire 4G] REDFOCZ:
My phone just sat at the pushing new Rom to SD card this will take a while ... let it sit there for over a half hour and it didn't do anything
[HTC Inspire 4G] dunn32:
Ugh. I installed the update, then rebooted the phone. And the USB cable came unplugged, so the one-click app was stuck on daemon started successfully, It won't do anything. Am I screwed?:confused:

Update: Think I got it. Sorry
[HTC Inspire 4G] RBDH:
Still having a problem when trying to boot into cwm recovery. Everytime it shows the white HTC screen then slowly fades to black. Am I going to need to start over again?
[HTC Inspire 4G] rawb123456:
I was going to ask the same thing.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
Wait for the release later.
[HTC Inspire 4G] ZXMustang:
I have tried the process twice and this is also happening. I have flashed the RUU twice to get back to stock. What is going on with this? Even if you try to flash the CWM from ROM Manager it still does not work. When I flash the RUU back, then go through the process again, it still says I have CWM installed even in a freshly installed rom manager. How can I get back to s-on completely stock radio and bootloader?
[HTC Inspire 4G] shep211:
Getting black screen with cwr as well. The only thing i seen fail was mmap() failed. Operation not permitted.
[HTC Inspire 4G] RBDH:
By chance will we be able to enable usb tendering with one of the future releases?
[HTC Inspire 4G] dunn32:
Got S-OFF and root, but when I enter bootloader and try to go down to recovery, it doesn't work. It always tries to install the .zip update again.:confused:
[HTC Inspire 4G] jfellon:
hey bubby

the 2nd version did work with the workaround i did obtain radio s-off. i found that your cooked rom for AT&T was good but superuser didnt function correctly n there was no rom manager. btw Sound Works great i didnt get a tinny sound at all. also to everyone who is going threw the one click just be freaking patient follow directions. one thing bubby seems to have less problems when doing it from a virgin inspire.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rawb123456:
Bubby thanks for addressing the cwm issue.. secondly will we have to reflash everything? No worries I just didn't want to put time in to setting up sense and my apps if I will have to clear memory again. Thanks again for all of your great work.
[HTC Inspire 4G] REDFOCZ:
alright I was able to downgrade and get S off.... but it will not allow me to flash CWM tells me I dont root access... I have gone through the GUI several times and will not work
[HTC Inspire 4G] gewbert3:
Woooohooo!!! I has root! Thanks Bubby!!!! Not quite "1 click", but was very easy to follow! So long AT&T bloat.....
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
I'm getting ready to boot into linux and start cooking up a fixed version of the AT&T stocked rom with HSUPA, sideloading, root, superuser, and clockwork. Then I'm going to revise the program a bit and add some stuff for you all to use. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] jwzg:
If superuser is not working correctly, go into the settings for all programs and delete the data. It is likely corrupted. I did that with mine and it is now working.

Bubby, FWIW, I'm rooted, bloat free and HSUPA enabled. This thing is much quicker now. I'm going to give it a rest as I have to get caught up at work. I'll be keeping up with things over the next few days. I may see if I can get my mod clothes back and help prune this thread a little. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] citlec53:
Got s-off, rooted and all, but now GPS doesn't work. Anyone else had this?
[HTC Inspire 4G] rawb123456:
HOW DID YOU ENABLE HSUPA? I removed bloated via root explorer.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Robs46:
Awesome job!!

just wanted to let you know that i picked up my phone yesterday, read through all 98 pages(at the time), downloaded your program and everything went smooth. I have to say that you are very impressive Bubby, even through all the hating you kept you cool and didnt let them get you.

After using your method i used the Android Revolution 4G Rom to enable sideloading but am making a backup now and anxiously awaiting the updates you have in store for your GUI.

I also must add that i am a complete n00b as far as rooting phones is concerned. This is my first smartphone of any kind and although i am fairly tech savvy (nowhere near your level) this process was very easy to use and understand.

Thank you for all you have accomplished and keep it up you are going to go far!!
[HTC Inspire 4G] lrs421:
Glad to see so many happy users. I told you guys Bubby was the real deal :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] lrs421:
This is why this project was and is worthwhile :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
I'm another one with a non working GPS.. Hoping someone can provide a fix :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] lrs421:
Seems to be a reoccuring theme on rooted stock roms. Try flashing a different Rom.
[HTC Inspire 4G] shep211:
My wife needs her phone so I fixed the black cwr with these steps. If you can wait then wait for updated version.

1 Download ace-hack-kit-v7

2 copy ace-hack-kit-v7\tools\dngrd\PD98IMG.zip to sd card

3 power off phone

4 hold vol down and then power button

5 press power button once to get to hboot

6 let the rom reinstall

7 follow these steps and use windows cmd terminal to enter hackerize-ace rage then android terminal for the rest.

Once the phone has been successfully downgraded, proceed. Make sure the phone is running and adb debugging is enabled and in charge-only mode (USB not mounted on the PC).

IMPORTANT: BEFORE SWITCHING FROM DISK DRIVE TO CHARGE ONLY MODE,

ALWAYS EJECT THE GOLDCARD FROM WINDOWS SOFTWARE TO FLUSH

WRITE BUFFERS AND AVOID CORRUPTING THE SDCARD.

hackerize-ace rage

Once this completes, Open terminal ON THE PHONE.

In phone terminal, type:

/data/local/tmp/rage

Wait for the message: "Forked #### childs."

Menu > Reset Term - Terminal Emulator will exit.

Launch Terminal Emulator again in the phone, it Force Closes. Launch a another time, and you'll have a temp root shell.

Again in the phone term emulator:

cd /data/local

./gfree -f

sync

/data/local/tmp/root

(NOTE: If this returns root not found error, then run

hackerize-ace fix-win

then try the /data/local/tmp/root command again

sync

Congratulations! You now have radio S-OFF, you are rooted, and your phone is carrier-unlocked (sim-free)

4. INSTALL CUSTOM RECOVERY

Install ROM Manager from MARKET

Install Clockworkmod Recovery with ROM Manager
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
If you do this, you will loose root until you re-root and you more than likely wont have sound, that zip is the oldest desire hd rom around with the exploitable radio. The new version will be up shortly. Don't fret. ;)
[HTC Inspire 4G] ClearD:
Just an update from my side, everything worked. I'm rooted and S-Off. Haven't tried CWM yet, but I'll do that when I get home and can download ROM Manager, as my market isn't connecting well here at work (it's a network issue, not a ROM issue).

Bubby, any chance you could change the SuperUser version to the one by ChainsDD from the market? It's got a lot more options.

Also wouldn't hurt to include ROM Manager and Titanium Backup in the new ROM you're cooking up. ;)

Another note, I own techsupporteverything.com with unlimited bandwidth, so I'll add to your mirror list also when I get home and can FTP it to the site.
[HTC Inspire 4G] eswiderski:
sorry to complain.

seriously, i've never had a worse experience rooting a phone. i'm going on day 2 and i am still getting constant errors. disaster.
[HTC Inspire 4G] slapdaddy:
The most issues you will have with the actual process are with the gold card. I had issues at first...a variety of them. So I took one of my other microSDHC cards and used that as a goldcard....no problems after that. :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] mrro82:
Ditto. Getting a good gold card is key.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mrro82:
Just to clarify, wasn't all this achieved by the one click method?
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
The only things achieved by the actual main one click were root, clockwork, and S-OFF. All the other options were optional. I'm now cooking them into the rom.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fq9228:
It was only root, superuser, and clockwork . . . .
[HTC Inspire 4G] mrro82:
Gotcha. Sounds good. Can't wait to download.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bubby323:
Make sure you have the latest program, it would sound like you have the original release, the re-release fixes most all issues you will have, and make sure you have a gold card.
[HTC Inspire 4G] carhigh:
Got no sounds on 2 phones now. This is why i did not want to do all this crap.

Now im going to have to sit here and read and try things all night to fix these
[HTC Inspire 4G] fq9228:
. . . . downgraded to Desire HD (NO SOUND) . . no success with rooting and CW . . . waiting for revised version . . THANKS IN ADVANCE !
[HTC Inspire 4G] driftkidd2323:
maybe you should read, flash a new rom.
[HTC Inspire 4G] carhigh:
Q: Will my sound work after this?

A: Absolutely.

I read that. that tells me i shouldnt have to fix the sound by spending another 3 hours reading and trying a bunch of files until i find a fix that works.....yes im very aggrivated at this crap
[HTC Inspire 4G] driftkidd2323:
or you can quit complaining, take 10 minutes to download a rom, and flash it in clockwork.
