Thank you for the TWRP with other device, but new to HTC butterfly S.
Encounter some problem with data.ext.win and the win000 file with special permission Set UID and Set CID, which not allow me to copy to my PC or even using TWRP file manger to copy to external_sd card.
Also, does not allow me to backup to external_sd.
Please advise if i did something wrong.

yoongkw i didnt get your problem..explain what exactly you want to do...

Anyone tried installing busybox? I kept getting error and reboots.
Sent from my HTC Butterfly s using Tapatalk HD

Sorry. Posted this question in the wrong section.
Basically wanna copy out the phone's TWRP backup folder to PC to save up the stock unroot version.
And was not able to do that due to Set UID and CID in permission, something with the kernel security.

yes, i'm using it. the one problem i've had is not being able to backup the cache. nonetheless, i've backed up and restored ROMS on my my S using TWRP many times without issue.

I want to do the tutorial, but would like to backup my stock recovery first. Is it possible?

cannot get root or cmw working, help needed

hi there i have tried all the possible methods and i cannot get root to work or CMW to work.
ive unlocked the boot loader with the stock rom that avaiable in the tutorial but once it try to install CMW and root i get nothing...
fasboot does not recognize my device so i see no way out..
You can flash cwm with odin, you'll find the files on droidbasement.com. Sometimes it doesn't "stick" (for the lack of a better word) so do it twice. Then you can use rommanager ONLY to reboot into recovery, for nothing else! and proceed with the steps. Do not ever flash anything ever with rommanager.

For your own sake, try to get fastboot working, it's going to make your life easier. If you're using Windows 8 you're out of luck as the drivers are not correctly signed. (at least that was the case when I tried it last)

Check my response in the other thread.
Its tricky but doable and quite worth it, since fastboot is very powerfull.

You'll have to get fastboot working, no way around it then. There are a ton of links to different versions of drivers in this and other forums, one of them will work.

There may be another way, IF the current ROM has adb installed.
Flash CWM in odin
Go to Settings->Developer options- and set Android debugging to on.
Go to the command line (on the platform-tools folder of the android sdk) and type "adb devices".
If it identifies the device, an id will appear; then type "adb reboot recovery" which should reboot the device into CWM.

[Q] No OS is installed, stuck on boot?

Hi there,
So I've wiped it completely ending up with no OS installed on it, i have nothing on the SD card (Internal storage in this case).
When i boot it up, it just stays on the HTC logo.
Im using a mac, so when i connect it to, Android File transfer pops up trying to recognise it, but in the end it doesn't.
My question is, how do i get my computer to recognise my phone so i can put a zip onto it and flash it.
I've seen people saying adb, but i have no idea how to use it, or what it is kind of, i know its something to do with terminal?
Any help?!

I have never tried ADB with a mac, but what i would do for my windows is first download and install the fastboot drivers. then, you should make sure that you still have a custom recovery image (CWM, TWRP, etc.) if you dont, then push one via adb (google it, there are billions of articles.) Then, i would install zip from sideload from the recovery. I know that CWM has an option like this. Some recoveries have an option to mount your phone as USB storage, allowing you to drag and drop roms from your computer to your phone's SD card and then you can just flash the rom from your sd card. Make sure you do a full wipe before flashing. (factory reset data, format system)

Hi,
Thanks so much for replying.
I now have a new problem, i was searching up, and apparently i can install the stock rom if i relock the bootloader (which i have now done) and then run the RUU? (Is this correct?)
So i have done all that, however i can't seem to find the right RUU, because when it says do you want to update from image version... to image version... they are always different numbers?
My image version is 2.24.401.1
I think mine is the unlocked International version, i bought it on Amazon.
Can you help me at all?

Download adb sdk and set it up. I don't know how to do it in Mac so just Google it. When your adb is setup. Go in adb folder, then SDK folder, then platform-tools and put any ROM zip there. Do this first I will tell you more when you are through this.

No problem. Once you had set up everything , go to platform tools folder. From there open command prompt and run this command adb push ROM.zip /data/media/0/. You have to run this command in boot loader mode on your phone. It will put ROM on the phone. Mind you it will take some time. Up 10 to 15 mins in case of sense ROM and 5 to 10 min in case of cm or other aosp ROM. After that reboot in recovery and install rom.

Funnily enough i had the same issue a week or so ago. I was going to flash a ROM and went to wipe in TWRP. Mucked up and wiped the "sd card" as well as system and data. I blame the wine.
Anyhow, oopsy.
I had recently bought a USB stick with a micro usb plug built in. I loaded a ROM flash-able zip onto that, plugged it in, and mounted USB OTG from TWRP.
Flashed it from the USB stick and all was well. Having never tried this i was actually surprised it worked.
Just mentioning this as an alternative for people who may not be that comfortable with adb. Does require a custom recovery. I know it can be done under the latest version of TWRP, but not sure about CWM as i haven't used that for ages.

Hi,
Yeah i was thinking about doing that and ordering one from amazon as i don't know anyone else who sells on in shops.
However, even i order today it will come Tuesday, so in the meantime i will see if i can fix it using adb.
Thanks anyway
Have you installed adb SDK. Just Google and install it at C:\ . you will get an adb bundle folder. In that folder you will find SDK and in SDK is platform tools folder. Or if you have USB drive and an OTG cable, you can use @astmacca's method. Its much easier.

HTC one stuck at logo

My friend HTC one was updating firmware through OTA and turned it off during it
Its stuck now at logo screen
Am a Samsung user and terms like Odin and downloading stock ROM couldn't be found here on HTC.
Am confused as I have read a lot and it seems quite different than Samsung...
I managed to enter to boot loader but recovery isn't running as the device just restart.
The boatloader is locked in red. And formating the device is not solving the issue.
All I need is a site alternative to sammobile to download stock ROM and a program alternative to Odin to flash the mobile back

Are you familiar with FASTBOOT and ADB commands? If you don't have them installed on your PC then use this tool. Once you get them installed and operational, get the phone back into bootloader and attach the USB cable. It should say FASTBOOT USB. Enter this command in the command window: fastboot getvar all Post the information from it to this site but remove the IMEI & Serialno data.
This is a lot different than Samsumg. In some ways it is a lot easier. We need to find out what OS version is installed so we can direct you in the correct direction.
I downloaded Fastboot and ADB commands, here is a screen shot i captured. am not that good with picture editing

this is a dual sim variant of the HTC one (M7CDUG) and unfortunately, its not much supported here. There is no RUU I can found here to restore your phone. (4.21.402.5) only files available are ota update files and can not be used to restore the phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2617159
You should try to fastboot erase cache then reboot in recovery mode (volume up then power when you see the triangle with exclamation mark) then in the menu, try to apply the ota again.
You could also unlock your bootloader, flash a custom recovery compatible with dual sim variant and flash a custom rom.
Here is a thread with all the informations/guides/roms for the dual sim variant: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2495697
Pressing volume up and power after going to recovery helped me going to go recovery options just like Samsung recovery
I wiped data and cleared cashed partition too this time
But its still stuck at logo screen

@xferidx just spent an hour typing reply then lost it.
Download the firmware for the phone from the Collection HTC Dual Sim post. It is at paragraph 1.1 HTC One 802w. Rename it firmware.zip and place it in the adb & fastboot folder. Boot into bootloader with the phone connected to the PC. Type in the cmd window:
1. fastboot oem rebootRUU
You should see a silver HTC logo
2. fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
3. fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Wait until complete in the cmd window, after a few seconds then move on
4. fastboot reboot

@xferidx check the MD5 to see if the file is corrupt. If it doesn't match, then download and try again.
If that didn't work there are a few threads in the General section about your phone. Check there for a RUU or nandroid backup or return to HTC for repair.

Also why I can't flash boot the whole OTA update from paragraph 1.1?

it's not HTC in general it's the duel sim version you have is very rare and little support
The more obscure samsung phones have the same problem

All you need to do is make sure you install the htc drivers and also try and install the adb fastboot universal driver from xda. It provides a lot of useful drivers. Just follow these steps:
Turn off your phone
Hold the volume down button and then hold both the vol down and power button until HBOOT pops up.
Then scroll to the fastboot option with the volume keys and press the power button.
Now your in fastboot. You can now connect your phone to your computer.
Next on your pc search device manager and open device manager.
Check and make sure under android usb devices it says my htc.
Now open command prompt without elevated permissions.
Enter fastboot devices and it should show your device.
You are now ready to flash the recovery.
Download the recovery image and rename it rec.img and type something like "fastboot flash recovery C:/Users/***/Downloads/rec.img" without the quotations.
After it finishes just scroll to the HBOOT option on your device and click the power button and scroll to the recovery option and click the power button. Bam TWRP on your desire.

Download the image from the recovery thread and then go to your downloads folder and rename the image thats in your downloads folder to rec.img and flash it. Keep it in your downloads folder.
so can it be use in GSM networks in outside USA by bootloader unlocking or anyway to use desire 510 virgin mobile one outside in USA for GSM network?
PS- this ebay unlocking service seller told me he can unlock 510 virgin one(see attached image),
but any one know that 510 virgin one has ability to work in GSM netwroks?
Or the desire 510 sprint model can be used in international GSM networks?

I have a unlocked X, was trying to install a new rom via recovery and something went wrong...but I forgot to do backup so now its on a boot loop and I didnt have USB debugging enabled. Is there anyway to load new another rom to the phone so that I can install via recovery since I dont have usb enabled?
Yes power the device off by holding the power button and volume down, after the display is off let go of the power button. You can flash recovery or boot to recovery from there

I can boot into recovery but how do I transfer the new rom to the phone so I can install via recovery? I dont know how to move it from my PC to the phone.
You should look up side loading via adb and most newer recoveries allow you drag and drop once it's booted, you are using a custom recovery for your phone correct?

yes team win recovery v2.6.3.1
In advance you will find sideload via adb, I am sure you have fastboot/adb commands on your PC as well an understanding of how sideloading works

Might have to start from scratch....flash the latest 5.1 firmware again....and bootloader if you haven't done so yet.

First link, option 5. Had a similar problem where I can go to recovery but my internal was deleted...I had nothing. Nor did I have a system.....I couldn't restore a backup nor flash a new ROM. I had nothing but recovery....so I googled the 5.1 firmware update and modem....and followed option 5 with mfastboot. Phone is up and running fine.
