1. is it possible ?

4. will i get ota updates with stock rom s-off?
5. the ruu is europe 1.47 do i need it to match to my software/radio/hboot?

HBOOT -0.98.0002
RADIO-3805.06.02.03_M
EMMC-boot

@yonigo870
Since you want to stay s-off and a stock rom then....
1) Yes if you don't want need OTA. No if you want ota
2) Yes
3) If you want to restore your apps/data yes, google SHOULD be okay with contacts/calendar
4) Dont be silly, really, DONT TRY STOCK THINGS ON ALTERED PHONES, thats common sense (at least it should be)
5) You will not use a RUU, you wil use a pre rooted stock rom from the development forum
However, if you want to get ota updates you will need to go s-on and use a RUU, I suggest just getting the latest RUU
My suggesttion, rather leave your phone as is and install a stock pre rooted rom, you can always install the latest stock rom when the OTA is released and its made into a prerooted rom.

@foX2delta i agree with you
@yonigo870 flashing a ruu can actually force you into a bootloop if you flash the wrong RUU the best wasy to get to stock is to flash a pre-rooted stock ROM

here is a few guides to help with that question i don't know anything about rom manager sorry i use 4ext touch recovery
Custom ROMS:
Custom roms can be found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1146601 or head to the development section.
(Most of these ROMs are pre-rooted, which means that you don't need to root your phone after flashing one of the custom ROM.)
How To: Flash Custom ROMs using Recovery (Method 1)
(You can use your default recovery from Revolutionary tool but I recommend using 4EXTRecovery)
1. Copy your custom ROM "zip" file to your SD card (Root directory).
2. Turn off your phone.
3. Turn on your phone by holding the power button and the volume down button together.
4. Once you see the white screen, choose "Recovery"
5. Make a full wipe/format and clear all cache.
6. Choose "install from sdcard/zip file" and then choose your Custom ROM zip file from your SD card to flash your Custom ROM.
Optional: If you want to use 4EXTRecovery, just flash it like you are flashing your custom ROM(Step 6). Just do it before you flash your new ROM.
How To: Flash Custom ROMs using ROM Manager (Method 2)
(This method might be easier for flashing ROM updates or add-ons)
1. Go to ROM Manager (You can install this software from the Android Market.)
2. If you want to use 4EXTRecovery, please follow steps below, and if you're not using 4EXTRecovery, please skip to step 6)
3. Press your phone's option's button and choose Manual Flash Override.
4. Press OK and choose your phone model.
5. Choose ClockworkMod 3.x (After these steps, your ROM Manager won't ask you to flash new recovery again when flashing new a ROM)
6. Reboot into Recovery and make a full wipe/format and clear all cache then reboot.
7. Now, from your ROM Manager, choose Install ROM from SD Card.
Note: Flashing ROMs can be vary, some custom ROMs may require you to flash some of their own file first. Eg, The LBC Mod ROM requires you to flash "WIPE zip file" before flashing the ROM. Read their instructions carefully to know more.
NOTE: I am not responsible for any faulty or bricked devices after S-OFF or flashing new ROMs. Do it at your own risk.
How To: Flash a ROM in a "Perfect" Way (Method 3 - Recommended)
A great guide from vampire36 for people who encounter the following problems:
1. The ROM you flashed gets stuck on HTC screen (bootloop) while the same ROM works right for others
2. You get the same kernel and radio yet you find your cell to have more battery drain than others
3. Finally some strange force closes and restarts but works perfect for others
So this is basically one of the most perfect way to flash a custom ROM and is a way to help people who face such issues.
Please head to : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1257731 to see full instructions and discussions.

You can enter a boot-loop but I've flashed ROMs too many times to remember (stock & MOD) and never truly boot-looped. You may soft-brick your phone however, but with remedy. Rooting phones & flashing ROMs isn't for the faint-hearted. My phone was dead for almost 48 hours (within 24 hours of purchase). That's how I joined XDA.
Scary. Turned out it wasn't hopeless. Within an hour of Temp Root, I had self-styled flashed CWM Recovery (haven't run into the gung-ho method I crafted yet, at least on these forums), proceeded to acquire Permanent Root afterwards and within the week had flashed 4 ROMs. Invented a few tricks myself .
Point is you have to get your hands dirty. That's why you bought the darn phone in the first place! Pull your gloves & get those hands dirty!

do i need to reboot after flashing ?

Yeah reboot I hope you made a full wipe before flashing sorry should have told you earlier
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA

yeah i did full wipe
after flashing rom the phone made updates from the market by himself, and now im restoring via titanium and seems like everything is ok...
after that titanium asked me to reboot, and so i did.
again thanks a lot for the support and for the help !!!!!!!!

problem !!! the rosie utility stopped unexpectedly...
htc widgets (like clock and weather) not working after restoring with titanium!
maybe its since the backup was on sense 2.1 and now its 3.0
how can make the htc widgets work ???

reboot back into recovery and fix permissions i dont know if you can do that in titanium

solved !!!
all was needed is to clear data from the htc sense

[Q] Can you install CM9 with HTC Dev bootloader unlock but S-ON?

To cut a long story short, it seems the HBOOT on my Sensation is the latest one and is not compatible with Revolutionary, doesn't even get upto the point where it's meant to generate the beta key, just says HBOOT isn't supported.
Short of jamming wires into my phone, it seems I can't get S-OFF on the current HBOOT, but I have got the official HTC Dev bootloader unlock working fine and my phone is currently rooted on the stock ICS ROM.
However I want to install CM9 on my phone. AFAIK, with the official HTC bootloader unlock my kernel and radio cannot be changed but everything else can.
So can I install CM9 successfully using CWM if I have the official bootloader unlock or will it only work with S-OFF? I guess the real question is will CM9 on the Sensation work with the default kernel, radio, and firmware?
Thanks!

NVM, finally found a good guide to flash custom ROMs and with custom kernels with S-ON if you are HTC bootloader unlocked, will use this for CM9 and see how it goes

did you find that after doing this it messed up your wifi, cuz near the end it says there's a possibility?

Been using it for a day and WiFi works perfectly.
The WiFi will only be a problem if the kernel doesn't flash, but in the case of CM9 it needs a custom kernel to even boot anyway, the Sense kernel won't work. So if CM9 boots it'll work
Also 4EXT has been updated since that thread was written and when you install the 4EXT recovery it now asks you if your device is S-ON, if you hit yes it'll turn the SmartFlash thing on automatically. What that does is flash the kernel separately before you exit the recovery to reboot back into Android and in my case it worked fine
Only catch is that you can only install ROMs for your current firmware. I have 3.32 so I can pretty much install any ICS ROM, but I can't install a GB ROM and I might not be able to install a Jellybean ROM, for example. But I'll cross that bridge when I come to it

I had this too, and I found out that I could flash only ROMs, where kernel is ready made .img file inside the zip. To do this, I needed to install the ROM (it installed into /system, but the kernel couldn't be installed due to protection), reboot into fastboot, and flash the extracted kernel img with ADB from the PC (as ADB was only way to flash kernel).
If there was a custom installer where I could configure the kernel (set CPU speed etc)., that would mean that the kernel image is assembled during installation, and it is not readily available in ROM. In that case, I was f***ed .

Most ROMs have the standard boot.img file in the .zip though, and you can check it by just extracting the files and taking a look
The 4EXT process basically does the same as you did but automatically, it's just as much effort as flashing a ROM normally

I see one problem with that your are using cwm as the recovery and that simply will not work because you can't flash kernels because your s on but there's light at the end of the tunnel but you must be rooted to do this you Will need to install 4ext custom recovery why because it will allow you to flash kernels with smart flash enabled and you can't do that with cwm

I also tried unlockroot same problem it says cant gain shellroot access. Can someone suggest to me what else i can use to root my phone with detailed instructions. When i tried clockword rom manager it says my phone isnt rooted? Can some1 help me out, please...
I am tired of waiting for HTC to release the ICS update and want to install a custom rom? any suggestions? cyanogenmod 9 isnt available for the desire s on their website, i am open to other stable fully functional roms.

Hello,
You just got another friend in the same boat.
I am too fed up with HTC & its service and want to root my phone, then backup the stock rom, after that try with Custom ROMs.
So far, I am only able to unlock the bootloader using HTC-dev way (I am HBOOT 2.00.0002)
SuperOneClick steps mentioned in xda is not working, It hangs and Step #7 and never goes past it.
I've checked and found over google that there are many users with 2.3.5 and above where SuperOneClick is not working.
I've also tried unlockroot[dot]com but no positive results...
Can anyone suggest if there is a way to root HTC Desire S 2.3.5 with HBOOT 02.00.0002 (HTC-Dev unlocked), so that I can backup the stock ROM first then go with Custom ROMs... ?
Any help / suggestions will be appreciated. :fingers-crossed:

There is a guide to do just this in the Index thread in the development forum. SuperOneClick won't work because the exploits it uses have been patched in the latest OTA by HTC.
If you don't want to install a custom ROM and just want root, then after you install the custom recovery flash superuser (attached) from it.

You only need to root your phone if you want root access on your current ROM. If you are going to flash a custom ROM, then root is not required. Most custom ROMs also come pre-rooted.
What you need it a custom recovery installed, and that just requires a copy of the recovery image.
I believe that you should be able to download 4EXT Touch Recovery, then flash the recovery.img from fastboot (because your phone is unlocked), then you can use 4EXT to backup your current ROM and flash a new one.

Thanks a Ton friends... :victory:
I have successfully rooted my HTC Desire S and your explanations were just perfect to teach me and boost my confidence.
I would just re-iterate the steps I have performed to ROOT my HTC Desire S especially for people who will soon start looking for steps after August 31st, since I'm pretty sure HTC will fail once again to deliver ICS updates by their given deadline.
Step. 0
Setup Android Tools folder on your PC (Windows)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1272595
Step. 1
Unlock bootloader using HTC Dev (HBOOT 2.00.0002 S-ON)
Step. 2
Download 4EXT and copy the recovery.img into your Android Tools folder
Download SuperUser and copy the zip file into SD card
Step. 3
Flash your recovery with 4EXT (Go for Step. #3 in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525100)
Power down from bootloader menu,
Step. 4
Enter into bootloader menu (Vol + / - and Power)
Goto Recovery (You should get into 4EXT Recovery) and install SuperUser by locating it from the SD Card
Reboot from 4EXT menu
You're Done... Your HTC Desire S is now ROOTed
Your Stock ROM is now rooted, you can backup the current ROM using 4EXT, then go ahead with installing any Custom ROM as per your choice.
EDIT: I re-flashed with 3.2-RC3 version of SuperUser (http://androidsu.com/superuser/) as the previous version was not working properly in giving root permission to other apps.

First of all, you mentioned that you were waiting for ICS. Well, it was released as a RUU (e.g. you loose all data), downloadable via HTCdev (I'm not allowed to post external links: htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads), enter "Desire S" as Device and "v4.0" as Android Version and you should see it (Desire S - HTC - WWE - RUU - N/A - v4.0 - 404.0MB - 14.01.401.2). You do not need to unlock or root to install it, if I remember right there were some information about people not being able to install it properly with an unlocked bootleader. Installing the update will lock the bootleader from what I've read.
You can also just flash a prepared version of this official update which preserves unlocked bootloaders, just search here. Not fully sure if that works with the HTC unlock, though, but I'm sure you should find it
Back to your question about reverting stock: you can always flash an unrooted stock rom, just search the forums.

[Q] Question on Flashing a Rom

Hello, recently i've just rooted my htc one s, s4. I stalled for a bit and had the 4.0.4 update already, so currently I have root access with the stock firmware. I'm looking through the rom list and the viper One s room caught my eye. So my question is, are there any prerequisite requirements before i flash this rom. Sorry for such a ridiculous question, but i havn't flashed a rom since the G1 and I remember having to flash certain kernels for certain roms. I still haven't messed with the kernel yet so that's stock too.
_________________________________________________________
My One S is s4 t-mobile, TWRP recovery, obtained root access with the All in One Toolkit v3.0 by hasoon2000. firmware is stock update 4.0.4 and everything else is just stock. so all i did was root

Just follow the instructions in the Viper Thread.
Since you have it rooted (and I assume a working recovery) you should already have all tools needed (fastboot etc).

On the Working Recovery, I would recommend installing TWRP. Best recovery atm for rom flashing. Get it thru the Goo Manager App on PlayStore. Just open Goo Manager then open Menu and tap on Install OpenScript Recovery.
Read OP pages carefully and scan the threads of the rom you want to flash. Depending on your hboot version, you may have to fastboot boot.img right after flashing rom. If at or above .13. Or, get Flash Image GUI from PlayStore and it will do it for you.
On CM roms there are some other quirks with radio etc, so some pre-study would be advised as well as nandroiding and backing up sdcard first. Put both backups on PC for extra safety.
Good Luck--

Thanks! i went ahead and flashed viper rom and after reading a bit i noticed that i had hboot .14 so it broke my wifi . I'm still currently searching info and came across that i need linux to downgrade, which i don't have . do you know any other method? or roms beside trickdroid 7 that support the hboot version and allow wifi?

On .14 the items I mentioned will apply on all roms
Not sure on wifi, i use mostly cm roms atm

Im on Hboot .14, and wifi works fine for me on viperS

there is a wifi partition zip floating around for wifi issues. didn't pay much attn to it as i have no issues--maybe a search, or someone will post it

Shot in the dark here since you've provided almost no information to work with...
You are still s-on and did not flash the ROM using SmartFlash on 4EXT.
If you are s-on you need SmartFlash. If you try to do with with CWM or 4EXT without SmartFlash, you'll get bootloops.
Also, NEVER use Odin with a non Samsung product. It probably won't even recognize a non Samsung device anyway, but it is does it's very likely to massively screw up your device beyond all recognition.

Search the Sensation forums for "Smart Flash"
You will find various threads and guides explaining in detail everything you need to know.
Short version....
Restore the nandroid backup you made of your stock rom in CWM first. If you previously rooted that ROM, this is a super easy process. Just download the 4EXT app from the playstore and install 4EXT REcovery from within the app. The app will ask you if you are s-on then walk you through the process of smartflash. If you didn't make a backup of your stock rom, or if the stock rom isn't rooted, search for how to install 4EXT.

When I flashed my first rom, I had the same problem you are having......using 4ext with smartflash will remedy it
what you can also do is unzip the rom on your pc and flash the boot.img to your phone using adb (from pc)
For that you will have to install htc drivers on your pc....check the flash boot.img part on this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
hope this helps.

Kernel
May be you flashed a wrong version of kernel? There are kernels fo ICS, and for JB.
