how do i go back to frf91 from frg33?

I flashed 33 and my phone is stock. I need paid apps plus this build is bugging out on me alot. Stuff freezes, its just a bad build. How do I undo this without rooting?

Pretty sure you have to root.

If its like FRF91. Then it wont let you downgrade because it sees FRF91 as an "old version."

Download ere27 as passimg.zip. place in your sdcard root. Boot into recovery. Restore. Let it do its work. Put frf91 into sd card. Boot into recovery and load from zip. Ta da. You are on Frf 91

Or, if you want a shorter and more correct route:
Nexus One Wiki, "Restore", PASSIMG.ZIP method, use FRF91 complete stock image found in one of the threads in Q&A from the last day (or Google).
Don't use FRF91 update, since it's only an update - it's not a complete image.

whatever. Just use a passimg.zip to clean out all the crap. its basically the "do-over" method. Think etch-a-sketch flip and shake.

i tried passimg from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=717870
it said failure because it was an older version. If i find that ere one will it let me do it? i dont mind going way back and working my way back to froyo, but i dont think i can passimg anything since its considered "older"

search the forum for how to downgrade your hboot- it exists just search for the thread

Thank you. Looks like ill have to root for it which im sure ill find if i search how to root 33 so ill wait for a while to see if something else comes up but at least I know there's a way

There is no other way but to root.
Since you're erasing the system you're rooting anyway, why do you care?
The full guide is now in the Wiki, including reverting HBOOT for those that need it.

i dont know, i did 1 click root a few times but every rom i tried- cyan, eno, modac, whatever were great but there was always some bug or something that was annoying enough that i just wanted stock instead. So i dont know how much i like the idea of permanent root, but theres probably a stock rom i can use so its not the end of the world. SDK/Terminal i did all that crap with my g1, personally i found it to be more of a hassle than it was worth. But not having protected apps is not going to cut it so ill cave soon im sure

Again, maybe this time it'll be understood:
There is no "permanent root". The only "permanent" thing is unlocking the bootloader, which you don't have to do - the guide doesn't require it. The system you root will be erased in the PASSIMG method and replaced with a completely stock system of your choice. So, what's exactly stopping you from rooting?

the only way to go back from FRG33 is to unlock the bootloader at this stage, the PASSIMG method does not work

When you revert HBOOT, it should work fine. Just the same as it works with Korean FRF91 version, which also has a new HBOOT. People in the FRG33 thread don't know it?

Why people can't understand?At this moment,if you've flashed stock FRG33 rom,using PASSIMG method,you can't root anymore!The only method to roll back to FRF91 is to unlock your bootloader,which is permanent and can't be un-done!
Cheers

Did you see that?
http://androidforums.com/1533396-post14.html
Or is it the only report? (in that case, the guy probably didn't try to run root).
Anyway, being unable to root makes you unable to flash PASSIMG of anything with bootloader lower than 0.35 - but did anyone try PASSIMG with Korean FRF91? It has the same HBOOT as FRG33, so it shouldn't be reported "older".

Code:
[HOW-TO] Revert HBOOT 0.35.0017 to 0.33.0012
I CAN'T RELOCK THE BOOTLOADER!!!
This only reverts your SPL/HBOOT back to 0.33.0012 after you've installed the Korean FRF91 files and ended up stuck with 0.35.0017 SPL.
Thanks to the guys in the Desire forums and help from the Nexus Q&A, I have reverted my phone to the original HBOOT so I can apply custom roms again.
First you need to root the Korean FRF91 that's on your phone using Paul's instructions for superboot FRF83.
If you are rooted already, skip this step.
http://android.modaco.com/content/go...the-nexus-one/
Code:
How to use Superboot - Windows, Linux and OSX
- Download the Superboot zip file above and extract to a directory
- Put your device in bootloader mode - Turn off the phone then press and hold the trackball to enter the bootloader
- WINDOWS - double click 'install-superboot-windows.bat'
- MAC - Open a terminal window to the directory containing the files, and type 'chmod +x install-superboot-mac.sh' followed by './install-superboot-mac.sh'
- LINUX - Open a terminal window to the directory containing the files, and type 'chmod +x install-superboot-linux.sh' followed by './install-superboot-linux.sh'
Note: If you are using a retail Nexus One, you may need to unlock the bootloader first, as detailed here.

Ok, let's make some order:
1) PASSIMG can flash versions with the same or higher HBOOT version - to check: will the same version flash? I believe so.
The official FRF91 has HBOOT 0.33.0012, the Korean FRF91 has 0.35.0017, and I suppose the FRG33 also has 0.35.0017 - correct?
2) Rooting isn't possible on FRG33 yet. 1 report doesn't count.
So, looking at this:
Using PASSIMG with the Korean FRF91 (complete with HBOOT 0.35.0017) will work over FRG33, if the HBOOT is indeed the same version.
Korean FRF91 is rootable.
Rooting Korean FRF91 allows to downgrade HBOOT, which in order allows to use PASSIMG method to flash official FRF91 with older HBOOT.
So, did anyone try PASSIMG with Korean FRF91?

[TOOL][SCRIPT][05 Sep 2012]S-off for HBOOT 1.16 and above[v3.4.1]

Detailed in this post is a way to downgrade your Incredible S Hboot version 1.16 and above to version 1.13 so it can be s-offed using revolutionary. This is made possible with the TacoRoot exploit, an unsecured kernel, misc_version_universal and an automated goldcard algorithm.
Please note that phones with the latest ICS hboot (2.02 currently) will have to be bootloader UNLOCKED from htcdev.com. If your hboot 2.02 phone does not have an unlocked bootloader, do NOT run this script.
(Insert usual disclaimer: not responsible for your bricked phone blah blah etc).
Beware also that you will lose everything on the phone so back it all up if necessary.
Always make sure the script has completed without error before continuing with the RUU downgrade.
Requires:
MicroSD card (2GB,4GB or 8GB recommended).
Windows PC.
HTC Sync (Installed then uninstalled for ADB drivers).
View attachment IncS_MVDTKv3.4.1.zip [highlight]Link to post, not attachment. No mirrors please.[/highlight]
RUU used for downgrade, model number PG3213000(Typical IncS)
Dropbox Mirror
Alternate RUU for Canadian Bell or South American IncS users, model number PG3212000
Dropbox Mirror
Procedure:
Extract all the files from the downgrade toolkit to your PC and run runme.cmd, following the instructions on screen. The only inputs you should be required to make are:
1. Answering y or n at the prompts
2. Rebooting your phone out of recovery (also when/if prompted)
You may receive this error during the script operation "rm failed for /data/data/recovery/log, No such file or directory" This error can be disregarded.
Then run the RUU Downgrade (takes a while, around 10 mins so be patient).
When its finished running, you can verify if you have 1.13.0000 hboot by entering hboot (power on phone + vol down).
Then you can run revolutionary to get your s-off!
Video Guide kindly provided by locn:
Use on stock ICS device
Part 1. This video goes through the process of down grading HBOOT to 1.13.0000 so that we can then use revolutionary method to gain S-OFF.
http://youtu.be/PbwE6pXOdco
Part 2. This video covers how to get S-OFF on the HTC IncS using revolutionary method.
http://youtu.be/alSEpJMJrjo
Support: (Before asking for help make sure you read and follow the instructions in both the procedure and the script)
While every possible precaution has been taken to ensure the script works on all versions of our phone under all windows environments, there is a possibility that you may get stuck on a step and require assistance. To make this process go as quickly as possible for both parties, please include the following information when requesting help:
A full output of the script, either by screenshot or copy/paste
The operating system specifics: hboot version, stock or custom(provide name) recovery or Rom and if the phone is rooted
(optional)An output of the command "fastboot getvar all" deleting imei and serial no.
Changelog:
v3.4.1 Corrected syntax causing errors for rooted users
v3.4 Added option for users on stock ICS hboot (2.02)
v3.3 Fixed main version downgrade and goldcard creation issues for some users & other minor fixes
v3.2 Repackaged and re-encoded in windows environment for compatibility issues

Just ran through the process, worked flawlessly. S-OFF at last!
Forgot to try without creating the Goldcard so can't confirm that one.
Thanks again NonVerbose.

Just to confirm, the gold card is required.
So happy to finally have s-off. Very annoying not being able to use OTA updates.

Cheers for the confirmation st.matt. I'll edit the guide.

Can this method of downgrading to HBoot 1.13 be used after unlocking the HBoot 1.16 via HTC method?

There should be no problems using this downgrade with unlocked boot. Be aware though that when downgraded, the 1.13 may be locked... until you use revolutionary of course

Have to try this on my girlfriend's IncS. Haven't had any luck making goldcards though.. never seems to work for me
Should be able to restore her nandroid backup once it's all done though, right?

Yes, as soon as the s-off process is complete you can restore nandroid or any other backup with no fear of losing s-off.

Cant seem to get it working
Hey guys, I gave this a try last night with no success.
I have 2 IncS, 1 came with HBOOT 1.13, and the other 1.16. I have made a gold card in the past for my first IncS so that I could get temp root access and upgrade using an RUU without issues, but this time i ran into a few problems.
The second IncS has been unlocked via HTC dev, is rooted and has ARHD 1.19 on it (HBOOT 1.16)
Followed the guide exactly as described, but when I got to the point of running the IncS downgrader, there were a couple of errors (sorry, forgot to note them down), but by the time the process got to the end, it reported that is completed successfully?
When I ran the RUU, it said i was upgrading from 2.30.405.1 to 2.30.405.1? I was expecting to see from version 1? I got an error pretty soon saying I need to use the correct RUU to upgrade, and couldn't get any further.
So then I ran the downgrader again, but half way it got stuck in a boot loop. I left it alone, and 5 mins later, the batch file completed (without errors), but remained in the boot loop. I waited another 10, but it never left the boot loop, so I continued with the RUU upgrade. This time it told me i was upgrading from version 1 to 2.30.405.1, it got a little further (deleting user data, then sending....), but stopped again.
Removed battery, rebooted into fastboot mode. Ran the downgrader again, and it completed successfully without any issues! Ran the RUU, this time it got a little further again, it told me it was deleting user data, then sending.......
Eventually it threw another error, and remained on the black screen with the HTC logo (no progress bar, and nothing in the corners either)
I removed the battery and booted into bootloader. It went into what looks like the usual bootloader screen, only the following message was displayed:
ruu error
Security Check Failed!
At this point i thought I would have to restore the nandroid backup i made before beginning this process, but when i put the original micro SD card in and booted normally, the rom was exactly as i left it!
I did this on Windows 7, with all drivers installed (I use this notebook for android app development, so I know the SDK and drivers are complete, and my first IncS is used for debugging apps), and I used a very old 256Mb micro SD card to create the gold card.
I know it's a lot to ask, but any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for the feedback arhidi, sorry to hear that you're having problems.

Security check failed points to a problem with the goldcard try creating it again using the steps in the guide.
Try turning fast boot mode off if you haven't already (Settings » Power » Fastboot)
Please run the downgrader while the phone is booted normally (charge mode) as the temproot could be negated between leaving fastboot and booting the rom.
I'm assuming you are using a stock rom, the RUU should be reporting that you are "upgrading" from a higher version to a lower version.
One last thing, the phone should not be rebooting through the main version downgrading process (runme.bat) if it does please run it again before continuing to the RUU downgrade step.
If you receive errors in the main version downgrade, please note them and report back.
Good luck
Edit: sorry didn't see you're rooted and running custom rom
An alternative to running the runme.bat you can just copy the misc_version to your ADB folder and enter the following commands:
Code:
adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp
adb shell
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version
/data/local/tmp/misc_version -s 1.00.000.0
exit
Then run the RUU

No problem, let me know how it goes. The guide was actually written for stock ROM but it should be able to work with custom.

Can you restore back to stock rom? The ruu must be checking the installed from before it updates.

If you're getting error 155 and your gold card definitely works then try going into fastboot before starting the RUU downgrade.

As far as I know there's no software to verify the creation of the gold card. The only way to know for sure is if the card mounts properly and works with the ruu downgrade.

i think u need to first soff ur phone!!for that u need to downgrade ur hboot to 1.13.0000 or 1.09.0000!! apparently the tool tpbklake is sugesting can downgrade ur hboot(i havent tested it) then u need to soff via revolutionary!! its all easy once u downgrade ur hboot version!!:laugh:

i really hope u can at least give it a look at guides made by our fellow forumers and ask questions accordingly when u got stuck on certain steps or something. tpbklake provides useful link there, why dun y have a look first.
im not a pro, but i think most important of all u need to know what rooting is all about, if u want to go along the easy way, then just unlock ur device through htcdev, flash custom recovery, and flash a pre-rooted rom available (most of them are pre-rooted).

That's not the file he linked. That is my downgrade script which will not work on your hboot version unless your phone is rooted.
Your also describing a stock recovery, you need a custom recovery to flash the superuser file that naathaanb96 linked. Copy his file to your sdcard.
link to custom recovery http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img flash this using
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img
reboot into bootloader
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
and select recovery from the bootloader menu. When the recovery loads select install zip from sdcard and choose the superuser zip file you copied earlier and confirm. When that completes, reboot and you're rooted.

I followed your instructions, and still not rooted.. I noticed after the installation of the superuser package that the version is 3.0.7 for android 2.0 - 3.2. but i have ICS version 4.0.4

Where did you get 3.0.7? Not from this thread, right? Because you were linked to 3.1.3, here's the link again, just to refresh your memory:

FYI 3.0.7 is actually compatible with ICS if you download and install the correct package.

Thanks for the Quick Response Nonverbose. By the way, i am planning to root my Inc S.
So FOR ROOTING, i would like to follow below mentioned thread.
1. Unlock from HTC Dev
2. [GUIDE][02 Aug 2012]Prepare ICS HBOOT 2.02.0002 for S-OFF Downgrade Tool
3. [TOOL][SCRIPT][09 Aug 2012]S-off for HBOOT 1.16 and above[v3.4]
PLEASE CONFIRM WHETHER AM I NEED TO FOLLOW ANY OTHER TO GET COMPLETE PERMENANT ROOT
Another Question, I have not yet unlocked the bootloader from HTCDev.com; Before that i would like to get
clarified on following
My Device is running on HTC 4.0.4 ICS with HBOOT 2.02.002 -- it can be unlocked only from HTCDev.com
1. Before ICS update, All Bootloader are unlocked other than HTCDev.com. What are the disadvantage on unlocking from HTCDev.com
2. I have installed the HTC Sync which is came along with my mobile. I Came to know, i need to uninstall HTC Sync keeping the Drivers.
Can i use the HTCSync Drivers instead from this link?
Install HTCDriver3.0.0.007
Download
http://db.tt/9S4iEsg3
3. I am currently having problem with installing any application (.apk) from File Manager. The install button is disabled But when i cleared the media storage, i can install from file manager. But its temporary fix. But I CAN install only from Market.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1643065.html
This make me much worried,
During rooting process, i need to install various files (Say, superuser.apk), will this problem in my mobile cause the rooting process to fail?
OR Installing from ADB is different so that i can install and rooting wont be interrupted.
Please help me.. I am worried about point 3, mentioned above.

As you already installed htcsync you wont need to install other USB drivers as the htcsync drivers will remain even if you uninstall it. In fact, you don't actually have to uninstall it, you can just exit the program from your taskbar. I mentioned it in the tutorial only as a precaution, anything trying to interface with the handset could interfere with adb daemon operation.
You don't need to use tpbklakes guide anymore as I have integrated that process into the script.
If you need help with the s-off process, the best place to post is in the scripts thread, I'll be able to respond much faster.
Be aware that s-off is not root, it is setting the security flag to off which enables access to all partitions, you will have to flash superuser or a custom Rom to get root access.
If you cannot install APK's from file manager, it might mean that you have not checked ALLOW NON MARKET APPS in your settings. I think it's in your development menu.

1. Flashing the superuser will also come under this your SCRIPT right?
2. I have already allowed THIRD Party non market apps. But the problem is different, in package installer screen the install button is disabled. Temporary solution is clearing the data in the media application solves the issue. But its The temporary. Whether this will have impact while flashing any files while scripting is executing?

[Q] HBOOT1.13 RUU compatible with CID HTC_Y13?

Hi,
To start off with, I have no prior experience with rooting or the likes. Yesterday I decided to root my phone in order to use programs requiring SU access, which went fine. Along the way I decided that I'd also like to install a new ROM, and thus embarked on the journey from HBOOT2.02.0002 S-ON to S-OFF.
I've been following this guide to downgrade my phone in order to S-OFF it. After everything going smoothly apart from slow downloads, I am now attempting to downgrade using the following RUU provided in the thread:
RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.30.405.1_Radio_20 .2808.30.085AU_3805.06.03.03_M_release_199308_signed.exe
Unfortunately for me, the installer stops with ERROR155. I have tried Googling around and have found that the RUU should be matched with the CID (HTC_Y13) of my phone, though I have come up short when trying to find an actual match and a link. So my question is, which RUU should I use to downgrade and where can I find it?
My phone is bought in Denmark if that's of importance.
Thank you so much in advance - this board has already been an amazing ressource to me!

That RUU will work for you if you answered YES to create a goldcard.
The error 155 means that the bootloader did not get RELOCKED by the script. You should post the results of your command window when you ran the script so that we can assist you better.

Thank you very much for the fast reply!
Having read on a bit, I have discovered Nonverbose's Downgrade kit which I have not been running before. I'm guessing that the creation of goldcard happens through running that script?
As I am having a bit fun with the tinkering, I've tried to do things as step-by-step as possible to understand the process. What does a goldcard do exactly, and why does it help the RUU run? Does it restore my CID to a manufacturer default or something?

The goldcard allows the bootloader to bypass the CID check when flashing the RUU. Therefore you can flash a RUU from a different region or carrier. It does not alter your CID in any way.

The error 'more than one device or emulator' is definitely not good. Also you took a screen shot instead of cutting and pasting the contents of the command window, so you did not capture or show the whole script execution.
Make sure you don't have the HTC Sync application running in the system tray or in the background. That would definitely interfer with the script.

HTC Desire 510 - Problem overwriting memory block

Hi Guys,
Step 1.
I've dumped /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 which is called "Board info"from my HTC onto my computer and opened it with Hex editor.
Step 2.
This file contained some data and CID followed by IMEI. I've edited the CID to 11111111 HOPING that I'll get a superCID. I've overwritten the existing /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 file with my modified file. Operation succesfull and no problems shown by ADB.
Step 3.
I verified if I've done Step 2 correctly by repeating Step 1 and surprisingly the /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 doesn't seem to be overwritten which makes me really sad and I'd really appreciate if someone would be so kind enough to help me by answering why are my changes not taking effect ?
P.S. I've had the whole /dev partition remounted to be read/write as well as that to be extra sure I've changed permissions to 777 for /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 but I'm stuck at step 3, the only answers that come to me are that either I'm doing something wrong or the phone doesn't allow me to overwrite mem blocks.
PLX help :crying:

Thanks for your answer, I wasn't aware of that. You probably know the next question though - How do I get S-OFF ?

Sunshine does work 100% I can vouch for it. You simply need to go back to complete stock by using an RUU once your phone is completely stock including the stock recovery you can either ask me here for help with it or find @jcase over on his website theroot.ninja and I'm sure he will be more than happy to assist you with it... One other thing though if you're using a 64 bit phone it's not going to work with the sunshine app.

I have stock RUU downloaded and waiting but I can't install it because it's CID doesn't match with my phone CID. That's why I want superCID and that's what I meant when I said I want to get a "different ROM on my phone" , I should have made myself clearer in the last post. I'm currently running CynanogenMod 12.
So far I've tried the GoldCard maneuver and dumping memory block followed by hex editing and re-dumping it onto my phone (hence this thread) as well as the above mentioned SunShine app.
It feels like I'm drastically running out of options here, do you have any other advice ?

You really don't even need to be going through any of that crap if all you want is to use another rom... All you need to do is get an unlock code from HTC by giving them the token from your phone then you flash the unlock_code.bin and then flash a recovery of your choice I use twrp 3.0 at the moment because it's the newest one and make sure it's specifically for the HTC Desire 510 or it won't work after you flash the recovery you make a backup of your system before doing anything else so you have something to fall back on just in case and then you download the rom you want to either the sd card in the phone or to a computer and flash it and voila new rom... I suggest you search how to unlock the HTC Desire 510 bootloader and then search for how to root the HTC Desire 510 and after you read the step by step instructions you'll be able to get the rom on your phone... You'll need to install minimal adb and fastboot to c: drive to flash anything at all so download that too.

I've got it all done otherwise I wouldn't be running CynanogenMod 12 which I mentioned above. The thing is I don't have the backup I made for my original ROM. After an extensive research I've found a stock ROM which is suitable for my phone but it is not in the form of an image or zip file. It's a .exe Rom Update Utility (RUU) hence I'm dealing with all the stuff I've outlined in my previous post and looking for more help.

Because the Vodafone' CID isn't HTC__052 so you'll need to flash the Tesco one and you really don't have much of a choice at this point because there's no s-off for the HTC Desire 510 64bit and you unfortunately cannot change your CID without being s-off so your best bet to get stock back is to use Tesco if there's even one available.

Are you sure? Did you try to boot it? Some people even have to extract the boot.img and flash it after the installation process finishes. What recovery are you using? Did you do a wipe on the partitions before flashing?

Yes I booted it and prior to writing my previous post I opened up the fastboot and tried fastboot flash of boot.img that I've extracted from that archive, the phone rebooted and that's about it, no changes made.

I changed it to match your CID so it would work. I made it awhile ago I just had it on the sd card so I changed the CID to yours and uploaded it.
