[COLLECTION] CWM Recovery [WIP], unsecure BOOT, ENG H-BOOT for S-OFF users

Hi,
this is a development & collection Thread. The PG58IMG.ZIP files can be flashed through SD-CARD in HBoot Mode. This works only for S-OFF users. If you don't have S-OFF you cannot use the files. There is no way to get S-OFF on a normal S-ON phone now.
Unsecured Boot.img (give you a root adb shell):

http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=623951&d=1307966840 Asia (thanks to jerryzyl)
ENG Hboot (enables more HBoot commands, not necessary for most users):
[thanks Rahan95 for dumping ]
http://81.89.105.12/~bin4ry/hboot/PG58IMG.zip
I'm trying to get the CWM Recovery working. It would be helpful if S-OFF users flash it and report what's working and what's not. ATM we have a screen issue that i'm trying to fix. So it would be nice if you make photos and attach them to your post. Also please attach the 2 files:

Thanks....And I wonder if the recovery can flash custom roms.

Recovery is WIP = Work in Progress !
So it's @ very early state. Normally it should work, but as i said before we have screen resolution issues!
First fix the screen issue then test all functions

Well, I think this boot.img is for Europe users,right?So Asia users flash it and cannot use wifi...
I made a unsecrued boot.img for Asia 1.28.707.2 users..
There is 95% users in China using Asia ROM nowHopefully it is useful for every s-off Asia users

Be on it later. At work now so flashing is out.
(unless there is a relay tasty on then I might attempt an fastboot under the desk)

Ah. no S-Off yet. Will try this stuff once software S-Off is attained.

Is "Ship S-OFF" enough? Or do i need "ENG S-OFF" to be able to flash the new Boot.img?

SHIP S-OFF is enough. Also, via SHIP S-OFF, you can get ENG S-OFF by flashing the PG58IMG.zip if you want that contain ENG S-OFF

Hi,
So I have my desire s rooted still running stock ROM. I keep getting notifications of OTA updates but they always fail to install.

If you're rooted then you're s-off'd then I recommend that you stay away from OTA's if you want better software go for a custom rom.

You can fallback to S-ON, and then OTA update then S-OFF and Root again.
You can follow my diagram below in order to fallback to S-ON.

try this -> link

I don't suggest doing an OTA update it only screws the Stock ROM, I did mine and it had Hell Battery Drain.. so I decided to S-OFF and ROOT mine

When you are S-OFF and install other ROM, you can't install an official ROM via OTA.
If the ROM installed is OTA updateable, you can download it from: Rom Manager app from Market.

I've just a question about the passage from the state SHIP S-OFF 6.98.1002 to SHIP S-ON 0.98.000x: since it is necessary to use RUU, does the phone get wiped? What if I use Linux?

Click to expand...

In this case you can download RUU in ZIP format, rename it to PG88IMG.zip, copy to SD card and reboot your phone to bootloader to flash.
You can find RUU in zip format here:
http://goo-inside.me/ruu/saga/full
BTW you have to switch your hboot to ENG S-OFF 0.98.2000 first.
(see my diagram above)

I am a bit puzzled... So is it possible to s-on again (to ota update ofcourse) without full wipe?? I truely hate backup/restore in gigabyte era...

According to my diagram above, you will fallback to s-on by executing RUU file, and this will do full wipe ofcourse.
I'm not sure if we can flash S-ON hboot over hboot ENG S-OFF 0.98.2000 by fastboot or adb command or not.

Hi. Thanks for the answer. All pretty much clear now...

Hi,
Sorry to hijack this thread but I'm not sure what (if anything) I would need to do to get this official ROM and ideally rooted when available.
I am currently S-Off via XTC Clip and rooted, my H-Boot details are: 0.98.002.
From previous experience I cannot do an OTA update but in any event need root.
Sorry to be stupid but any ideas what I would need to do when a rooted version of the update becomes available.
Many thanks,
Damian

Because the HBOOT is 1.27 ........

Can you flash an old RUU ?? How did you do this?
EDIT: I doubt you will be able to use a previous RUU since you are s-ON. The only thing you can probably do now is wait for that h-boot to get S-OFF

NO,can not flash the old RUU
it's so bad
"The only thing you can probably do now is wait for that h-boot to get S-OFF"
I guess so...thanks for your answering

yes your screwed like me. At least I only have Hboot 1.20 so as soon as the RUU is released for Tmobile i'll be fine I HOPE.

You need to wait for revolutionary to be updated

If your phone is super-CID, i.e 11111111 you can flash RUU..
that is the only way to reset H BOOT..
before flashing RUU unlock your boot-loader from here:
http://htcdev.com/
to be on a safe side go to authorized customer care center and tell them to re-flash the ROM using RUU (ROM update utility) they may charge some amount but your phone will be factory reset with S-OFF..
again you can root from the start..
(WARNING: flash the RUU with your own risk.)

my phone was still supercid and s-on too.
and it's can not flash any ruu still

I'm in the same bandwagon: hboot 1.23, S-on and supercid. I unlocked the bootloader with htc dev and I can confirm that trying to install a RUU always end in error 155, directly or from fastboot. And extracting the zip and installing from hboot, doen't work either.
I've tried every method I could find, including tacoroot and the very helpful guide from trkaaa, but nothing works.
Our best bet is to wait for Revolutionary to update.

[Q] Can't flash RUU and get back to stock Rom

Hi,
I tried to flash RUU rom into my phone (DESIRE S).
I followed the instruction in the "How to S-ON the HTC Desire S, Unroot, remove Revolutionary and Clockwork Mod recovery" thread.
Apparently I tried to flash wrong RUU.
The flashing stopped in the middle and I get error massage that the version not matches my phone.
However my HBOOT change to version 2.00.0002 and he's locked and S-ON.
I unlock my phone with HTC tool HTCDEV. I flash CWM recovery and restored the previous ROM.
I tried to flash deferent RUU, this time I check my phone (from India) and find the right version, but I get another error massage.
RUU I tried to flash:
RUU_Saga_S_hTC_Asia_India_2.15.720.3_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_226809_signed.exe
I think my HBOOT is the problem.
My HBOOT:
*** UNLOCKED ***
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT 2.00.0002
RADIO-382.10.08.04_M
Emmc-boot
Aug 22 2011,15:22:13
Which HBOOT image I need to flash, to flashing the RUU?
Thanks!

Before flashing another RUU, use misc_version script to "downgrade" your phone's main version.
It needs root.

can't get ROOT
Thanks for your answer
I solved this problem before I see your answer – I relock my HBOOT and run RUU exe file.
But now I have other problem:
I can't ROOT my phone
I tried 3 deferent methods:
[EXPLOIT] [26.04.2011][v1.2] GingerBreak APK (root for GingerBread)
[EXPLOIT]SuperOneClick v2.1.1 (Finally fixed!)
[EXPLOIT] Revolutionary - zergRush local root 2.2/2.3 | revolutionary root exploit
superOneClick – stuck in step 7 "WaitForDevice"
How can I get ROOT?
Thanks!

Downgrade or unlock the bootloader. The guides for both of those are in big INDEX thread.

u dnt need to downgrade
just unlock with ur unlock.bin code
then root with SuperOneClick
am sure of this steps cos am on stock and dat was d process i uesed
cheers

[Guide] How to return/ go back to 100% stock for warranty

This Guide will help you reset your HTC One S back to 100% stock form with no trace of modifications. For example to claim your warranty.
*******I am not responsible for any problems you encounter. I am simply informing you of what is needed to complete a restoration to Stock. Read all steps and commands carefully and perform them in the correct order.********
S-Off
You need S-off to change your lock status flag so you need S-off for this guide!
If your not S-Off yet first get S-off trough this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155135
There are also other S-Off methods, feel free to use them, although I can only confirm Facepalm S-Off works.
Change your CID
If you have Super CID (11111111) change your CID back to your original CID.
There is a list of CID number here: http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f692/needed-all-htc-cid-list-1552412/
You can get your current CID by typing: 'fastboot oem get_identifier_token' when you are in fastboot mode.
You can change your CID by typing: 'fastboot oem writecid yourCIDnumber' when you are in fastboot mode.
You can also use one of the HTC One S toolkits like Hasoon200 toolkit or the toolkit form squabbi.
Change your lock status flag
You can change your lock status flag back to locked with this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155955
For me the noob friendly didn't work the old school method did work though. Maybe the noob friendly method requires you to downgrade your firmware first.
Downgrade firmware
If you're using a rom that requires you to update your firmware, like Maximus HD, you maybe need to downgrade your firmware first. I'm not sure it's necessary but I did it anyway, just to be sure.
You can do this with this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2322755
Run a RUU
Now you can run a RUU.
Choose a RUU that's compatible with your provider and country and preferably the most current version.
Make sure you get a signed RUU otherwise you can get in trouble trying to get S-on.
Here is a list with RUU's: http://www.androidruu.com/index.php?developer=Ville
Although the downloads are stable it may be a good idea to check the MD5-sum.
I use this one with success for a dutch unbranded Htc one s: RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.16.401.8_Radio_1.11.50.05.28_10.27.50.08L_release_301814_signed_2_4.exe
Check lock status flag
When the RUU is done reboot in the bootloader and check if your lock status flag says '*** LOCKED ***'.
S-on
Now you're ready to get S-on again.
Reboot into the bootloader and make sure you're in fastboot usb mode. Then type 'fastboot oem writesecureflag 3' in console.
Check
Your phone should be completely stock with no trace of modifications at all!
You can check the bootloader, i should look like something like this:
*** LOCKED ***
VLE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.12.0000
RADIO-1.11.50.05.28
OpenDSP-v31.1.0.45.00815
eMMc-boot
Good luck!

It's written for the S4 version.
But if you have S-off it probably would work, although i'm not sure the lock status flag thing works for the C2, and you shouldn't use the link to downgrade your firmware.
You can get a RUU for the C2 here:
