Their site is currently down, but that is the url, so check back later.

There is only one zip for ALL supported phones and hboot versions! I posted the direct link above since you seem to be just a little confused. Here it is again:
http://revolutionary.io/revolutionary-0.4pre3.zip

Yes I understand but I look for someone who has installed the latest update from HTC and then used Revolutionary, so he can make a copy of HBoot 1.18.0000

Here
Download also contains radio and other firmware updates, just extract the hboot and do with it what you will. BTW once you run revolutionary that hboot gets replaced by the hacked revolutionary hboot so getting it from a device that ran revo is pointless!

Thanks but i search the hacked revolutionary hboot not official.

Just run revolutionary then, cause you aren't making sense to me. It seems like you are making this too complicated. I guess I can't help you.

He wants someone who ran the revolutionary exploit on the latest hboot to make a copy for him to flash.
But iirc, the latest revolutionary downgrades you back to 1.17 so trying to get a 1.18 is futile.

whats difference between 1.17 and 1.18?

Actually I've got S-Off and Hboot 1.18 and if someone tells me how to extract it I would do it but I don't know how to do
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA Premium App

You must have flashed the update after you got s-off which is fine but then you'll be missing out because fastboot cmds are not enabled in the stock hboot.

So there's no option to have hacked HBOOT 1.18.0000/1.18.1111 with revoultionary? Only option is downgrade to 1.17.1111?

You can S-Off it on 2.3.3 and update it OTA. I think it's the only way right now

Is this safe? Any info about differences in 1.18 / 1.17?
Btw my phone is sent to HTC because I did some mistake and bricked it.
When it will be back with OTA 2.3.4 then downgrade to 2.3.3 -> S-OFF -> upgrade 2.3.4? It will be safe?

ENG S-OFF and Ship S-OFF?

Hi,
I want to flash a new radio to my Sensation as I currently have a really bad battery life and thought it could maybe be the result of an non-matched radio. (Updated to Android Revolution HD 3.0.0 yesterday)
My bootloader tells me I'm Ship S-OFF, but I've read that I'd need ENG S-OFF to flash a new radio, but could not find any guide telling me how to "do that".
Do I need ENG S-OFF? If so, how can I get it?
Thanks for your help.

Find Bin4ry's thread in dev section (it's a little hard to find, old thread but still) and inside that thread you can download PG58IMG.zip file. Then just flash that file and that's it

I've already installed one PG58IMG.zip file a few weeks ago, which was a bit "bigger". Am I supposed to just install the "new" one "over" the old one? Or will there be problems?

You do not need ENG S-OFF to flash a new radio.

What is ENG S-Off used for anyway? Installing a new ROM overwrites the radio though?

Installing a new ROM does not override the radio, installing a new radio does. If you don't know what ENG hboot does, don't flash it. You don't need it, and if you don't know what youre doing you can brick your phone.

I do know what I'm doing (I think xD). I just mixed up all the information I got, so I wanted things to be cleared up a bit.
What I just want to know is, what is the difference between Ship S-Off and Eng S-Off? What is responsible for giving acces to Nand making me able to install a custom ROM? Ship S-Off, right?
I'm really confused right now xD

Ship S-OFF is enough to flash a recovery so you can flash a ROM. If your ROM needs a different radio the chef will let you know and will likely provide instructions to upgrade. ENG s-off opens up more commands that can potentially break a phone if you do the wrong things.

Desire S how to S-OFF and Root ?!?

Hello!
I want to root my Desire S with official rom 2.3.5
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.00.0002
Radio - 3822.10.08.04_M

My question - any solution for rooting and S-OFF for my Desire? I tray everething (UnlockRoot, SuperOneClick...), but no results Please help...

i think you must be s-off with revolutionary before root

to use revolutionary, you'll have to downgrade your hboot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318919
But I think you can get around that by using the HTC Dev website to s-off. I've never used HTC dev before so maybe someone else can shed some light on that

Is it possible to get S-OFF without downgrading my HBOOT?

Yes as I mentioned before with htcdev but I'm not sure on how it works. Maybe someone else can help with that
Sent from my Desire S using xda premium

I used manuals from HTC DEV site to unlock bootloader. After successful unlocking I used this instructions

Now, I have rooted my Desire S!!! But... ALL THINGS from my phone is deleted
My HBOOT is still 2.00.0002
Any solution to change S-ON to S-OFF?

I don't think its necessary to have s-off but when you flash a rom, you'll have to flash the boot.img as well.
I'm not sure why you lost everything though

Htcdev can unlock your bootloader but it won't s off.
To s off you'd need to downgrade hboot n use revolutionary.
Read up on the forum your question has been answered many many times
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium

sadsac is correct, htcdev can only unlock your bootloader, nothing more. But you will need for other steps to get mobile s-off and root.
In my case, I also had got HBOOT 2.00.0002 and revolutionary do not like it, so i had to downgrade:

To S-OFF use Juopunutbear S-OFF method. Read and follow this detailed guide.

Thats not revolutionary...
Atm revolutionary doesnt support this version of hboot.

Sorry about that.. solved my problem, i forgot that @ revolutionary site you can choose the hboot version XD. the supported ones are 1.17 and 1.18, anyway my problem is solved 'cause i've used a RUU to return back to hboot 1.18, anyway thank you!

It is possible i already did it one time when i recovered the phone with the 1.45 RUU starting from a Android 4.0.3 based custom rom, it's a bit twisted process but not that hard

I know its possible with s-off. But with stock, unrooted ICS iT's not..

The method has been shared and posted so many times that I would suggest you simply read the stickies and the indexes and use the search function as well.

Maybe I am ignorant...but I couldn't find a method to root my phone.. could be the hboot 2.02.002 the cause?
And anyway.. I belive that this is a helping forum.. or not?
