Nope, looks like it's gonna be unlocked bootloader or some way to circumvent the fastboot flashing, ala testruu.

Yep, it's a shame but I believe that's the other way.

actually I don't care about Mass Storage when I plug into Windows/Linux. I just want to flash ROMs like yours Evild D: :)

Anyone know how to get these sigs?

C:\SDK\tools>fastboot update update.zip

archive does not contain 'boot.sig'

archive does not contain 'recovery.img'

archive does not contain 'system.sig'

--------------------------------------------

Bootloader Version...: 0.75.0000

Baseband Version.....: 4.05.00.30_2

Serial Number........: HT03YPL08879

--------------------------------------------

sending 'boot' (2560 KB)... OKAY

writing 'boot'... INFOsignature checking...

FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)

along those lines... what do you guys think of "rebuilding" the testruu.exe with .img files from rootedupdate.zip ? do-able? or will it confuse fastboot and fail halfway? (when it doesn't get the signatures it expects because I've replaced (for example) boot.img from rootedupdate.zip into the testruu.exe file.... i know it's a bit of a hack job...)

Personally I think we either need to go to the store, play dumb and hope for a replacement or wait till we can our hands on an unlocked SPL... It's the bootloader that makes all of this a pain in the ¤ss

What I don't understand, is how this happend... Is it because everything is unlocked during the recovery session?

Don't misunderstand me.... I'll try just about anything, help where I can, but I'm getting kinda frustrated now :)

yup, i have the same sentiment. I'm not quite frustrated enough to part with my phone for 3 weeks (minimum) (i imported mine), so at the moment I'm happy to have my phoncalls work, internet work (3g+wifi). when i get totally sick of it, i'll put in RMA and get it exchanged/repaired (also need to pile up enough books for 2 hours per day x3 weeks - the time without my mobile) :)

and yes, i think this happened because everything was unlocked. HOW it happened? Who knows!!

if i remember correctly, everything booted (rootedupdate.zip + a2sd) fine... it was only when i swapped my SD card (goldcard 4gb) for my 8gb that it boot-looped. after a few loops, i thought "oh just need to repartition!" and then repartitioned via green recovery menu. but it still boot-looped. then i thought, "just reflash!!", THEN BAM! Linux gave "error device not found". So beats me, the act of swapping the cards = bootloop. Then repartition via green recovery menu = stuffed it completely. i know, failsauce.

There should be a way to restore everything. The same way we restored network + sd card with enableqxdm 0.

Dont you think?

i regret repartitioning - since my 8gb card was fine in my Hero.

I should've just reflashed rootedupdate.zip and r1a2sd and see if it boot-looped. :)

There SHOULD be. But now everything is locked down, so the chances aren't high (it's been over 3 weeks, so i'm losing hope)! :)

I have thought of this constantly... But is there a command anywhere... I'm thinking sort of a "bios switch" If you can turn on network and storage again... then why not usb and bluetooth...

Anyone with contacts in HTC development? ... anyone... anyone..

:) This can't be, my old phone won't survive longer than 2 hours without charging, so i won't send that damn thing to HTC. there has to be a way how we can reformat this

Normaly this is Samsung Style but not HTC

Ok, here are the differences (i don't take the different CID, cause i think it's due a different branding)

For the people with no adb connection.

Just a wild guess and perhaps allready tried but i noticed adb is not working eventhough adb is enabled in the settings.

After disabling and enabling it it starts to work

Try this:

goto settings

then apps

then development

you see usb is selected so you expect adb to work

unselect and select again

then it should work

when not working go into a terminal program and type:

$ su

# toolbox setprop persist.service.adb.enable 1

This should turn on the adb service

Hope this works
