Hello.
I get my first Android device, HTC Desire S from CZ Vodafone. I want to flash to clear Android (i have experiences only with Windows Mobile ROM flashing and unlocking). But the problem is, i absolutely cannot find good guide how to flash. I tested flashing with ZIPped ROM file on the memory card, but phone dont show it in Power + VolUp. My bootloader is HBOOT S-ON 2.00.0002.
Thank all!

If you cannot find, you did not search.
Sent by my fingers to your head.
A simple a glance at the general section would've provided you with the answer.

You would've found a guide to do pretty much everything on your Desire S. The first link shows the method of unlocking through htc-dev, however, you can also downgrade your h-boot which although some find harder than htc-dev, i believe it is the better option. You'll find a guide for that in the thread above as well, believe it or not.
Firstly I declare myself a noob for asking this but I want to be sure of what im doing before I do it.
Basically I want to run a patcher for a perticullar program on my phone however it needs root access to run.
Now my noob question is, what exactly do I need to do (is it just S-Off?) and can somebody send me a link with instructions on how to do this for my device.
I have a stock Sensation Z710e running ICS via OTA download on O2 (UK)
Android Version: 4.0.3
HTC Sense Version: 3.6
Software Version: 3.32.206.12
Any other info needed for definative answer just ask and i shall provide.
Thanks in advance for your help.

two ways for you to get root
1.SOFF then one click root ..guide link in my signature
or easy way ..but probable (very slim) void of warranty
2. HTCdev unlock (chk this site unlock bootloader)
and the same one click root (guide in my signature)
You cannot gain s-off the normal way, kong story. You news to unlock bootloader via HTC devlock. This because u have ics stock, and therefore hboot version 1.27000. Them root and Them you van s-off via juponut...... something Luke that. Search and u will find.

Hey Ruus77,
Pls note that you don't longer need to use HTCDEV unlock to get Soff.
the Juopunutbear has been updated. Just need to follow the tutorial on Ganeshp signature.

Thanks for that, worked a treat.
Just a few quick questions:
1. When i boot up holding the volume down key it says S-Off however it still says locked at the top. I have managed to run the patch that needed root access so i'm guessing the phone is rooted fine.
2. Would it saying locked at the top pose a problem if i wanted to run a custom rom in the future and
3. Could i run a rom for the Sensation XL i.e overclocked processor and beats audio on my sensationand if so where would i find the rom?
Thanks Again

2. you can change the locked bootloader to juopunutbear HBOOT..it helps or makes your process simplified for flashing custom roms
you can use the KGS tool (EDIT 3) in my guide for flashing the juopunubear hboot
3.Almost all roms comes with beats audio and heck you can over clock your processor
first start with ARHD..as it has pre guided guide on how to flash it
just follow the below guide post #2 (only post #2 ...don't worry of firmware ..you've already got what is needed ) to flash custom recovery and then ARHD (read the guide to the letter)
FLASH ARHD XE ROM
PS: there is a way to say thanks in xda
hello friends..
i have my htc desire s and i have recently official ota updated on android 2.3.5
i used it but i don't like this ...
its working slowly...
and its take much time to bootup...
and i would like to back to android 2.3.3...
so can any one help me???
you will have to go through this guide to change your misc ver number
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1443636
and for that i believe you have to unlock your device folloving htcdev.com guide
and after taht you will be able to install older RUU with htc sense you want
i did that just follow the guide and read closely and it will be fine
always ask before doing
No need to HTCDev unlock. You can gain temp root by Zergrush. Temp root is all you need for misc_version change.
hello,
thanks for reply ..
but your guide thread said it is works for software version 2.11 or above and it
is not work for software version 2.10 or below...
but my software version is 2.10.401.8
so please tell me which method is working for me...
and in this thread "Run terminal"
what is that where i can found it....
your OP thread title could have been far more informative....
Try this one if the one in post #2 doesn't work for you..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399331
Alternatively, just unlock with HTCDev, but HTC would know that you have unlocked the device, and voiding the warranty even if you go back to unrooted state..
I used Skanob's way of downgrading to stock 2.3.3.. Remember you need to get the correct RUU version to do this.. Follow the steps carefully..
or, why not try to contact HTC and ask to downgrade that for you?
So yea... Have a sensation tied to "3" UK provider. So i thought i just take it, unlock it, put 4eXT into it, flash something else and done... Well... NOT... It didn't worked out. Just later i imagined that it needs s-off too which requires "Juopunutbear" which requires stock rooted rom in the phone which is working... so now i am not able to flash anything which works because i tried to do this already with a device not being prepared and when i am trying to put in to it an original RUU it does not work too because probably i can't downgrade without s-off and it says that i am "upgrading" from 3.32 to 1.34 and after an attempt and failure it gives the advice to find a proper update suite or smth.
only one ruu i found found for my CID was RUU Pyramid H3G UK 1.34.771.1 R Radio 10.43a.9007.00U 10.51.9007.27 M3 release 197065 signed.exe
what do i do now?
any advice apriciated!
check the guide "flashing roms with SOn" by asskickar in sensation general section ..and follow the steps carefully and flash the rom (particularly check step #2 and step #3 ..if those two failed check extra step #1)
So I'm a first time flasher and i've done my thorough reading and research.
I have an at&t HTC one X, but i'm using it in India.
I was flashing it to CM11 Snapshot, for which i have unlocked bootloader from HTCdev, i already had S-Off and CID-11111111 (no idea why... and can someone explain what is supercid btw ?)
Also installed twrp and its inbuilt supersu. I verified full root access with root checker.
Right when i was ready to finally flash the CM11, i get an error message saying that i have hboot 1.14 and that i need a higher one (1.19 i think... dont remember)
Ive checked for the solution, it seems that i need to install the 3.18 RUU to update hboot to 2.14. However, its not available on the following link, So i guess i shud get the next available RUU, which is 5.18.
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2119610)
I also read that i cant root 5.18, unless im already rooted. So i dont have to worry about this right ? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1952038&page=58)
2 questions here,
Will it matter if i get 5.18 instead of 3.18 ? Plus, the 5.18 ruu is an exe file, not zip... is the flashing procedure different ?
I dont want to update the entire RUU, i just want to update my hboot. Is it possible ? If yes, how ?
I read that rooting is different for 3.18 than my current 2.20 firmware. I dont understand that either :/
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237 )
And i need to toggle my bootlock ?
( http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/74576-only-support-214-hboot/ )
Thats probably a lot of questions. But im really trying to understand this right. Basically what i wanna know is, what exactly do i do next to simply update my hboot safely, and then cm11.

First of all, I'm not familiar with your device.
As you found already the specific forum for your device, please ask in the AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL > One X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [Q&A]{Evita/One XL} Noob Friendly Q&A + General Help - Ask Any Question! thread.
There you will surely get quick and proper help.
