if this does work, then great, but, you could try to package the parcel a little better, how about adding an explanation detailing exacting what this update should do and under what conditions (from what ROM and hboot versions it's safe to run) along with where you actually got it from or did you create it on your own?

Ok I understand. In the Thread "sense 3 ota update" or something like that in htc desire s general forum. on page 15 comment 145. Some guy posted the link so i took that and some people tested it out and said it was Safe, as you can see in one of my other threads about this update! So i just decided to make a guide of what to do and see if it helps, it will probably get rid of your root, but that is why i said only people with unrooted devices and s-on. It is Android 2.3.5 and Sense 3.0. The guy got it from HTC.COM 9(SOMEWERE) FOR EUROPE! Is that all???

It'll not work on non-euro roms. Hence not working on Asian once. Because of CID checks and also you will not be able to force update if the rom is not asking (downloading) on the right HTC server.

Anyone done this successfully yet??

No luck for me either. Tried to apply the update through sdcard but no luck. I'll try re-downloading the image to be sure 100%

Tried it again and once again... no luck!
did it work for anyone?

Its not working for me. When I hold down d volume it show a menu with hboot on top

Ok. What you have to do is that when it shows the exclamation mark in the triangle you hold the volume up rocker down and press the power button. Though mine is not updating still, it goes to where to you see "install updates".
Please someone reply.

Installing an ruu will unroot it. Root is access the os layer /system and nothing else.

Why would you put a stock DESIRE HD ROM on an INSPIRE just to hope that HTC will think you have a DHD and give you the update for the DHD? Well they won't anyways. You do realize a stock DHD ROM is not 100% compatable with the Inspire? They do have slight hardware differences.
Gene Poole has a rooted version of the new DHD ROM with adjusted drivers for the Inspire in the Development section. If that is what you want in the end then just install it. Here is the link.

Only problem with that is, other users, like myself, have gotten a bootloop after installation. It will boot, but will constantly loop on the "HTC - quietly brilliant" screen. Last I checked, there was no solution as of yet. If Gene Pool can figure out what is causing it and correct it, I will most likely try flashing it again.

If you really want to run this stock base, I would go into fshami's Sens 3.0i thread and ask Wild Child if you could test his soon to be released stock version of this base. It has all the S's- smooth, stable, speedy, solid..... I'm sure he wouldn't mind another good tester.

Recovery

What is the best recovery? I know most rooms use revolutionary but what are the peeks of the other ones and why not stick with clock work? I tried figuring it out but don't know.
Sent from my MIUI.us Sensation 4G using XDA App

devs are using more 4ext cause it gives you options to install engines and what not

4EXT has a great UI and is really easy to use.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using XDA App

I've been a clockwork fan for a while, but it took all of 12 seconds to make me happy that I switched to 4EXT. It's REALLY easy to use.
It also shows battery % and the time in recovery. If something is taking a while that can be really handy to know that your battery is running down before you start a flash process. It's no fun is the battery dies in the middle.

What are engines? And what is this 4ext touch thing I hear about? Can you use the touch screen in the recovery? That would be great.
Btw thanks to everyone who replied. I was considering switching but wasn't sure if I should.

I think engines as in the Sony Bravia one? So basically Devs can give you the option while flashing, to select many options and add-ons, for example I just flashed InsertCoin 4.4.1 and halfway through it asked if I wanted to have a 1.5ghz overclock or add BeatsAudio. And Yes, it is touch screen making it a lot easier, as you can imagine!

4 ext recovery is great! The devs have done serious work
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App

Thank you to everyone, you guys helped alot. I was skeptical at first but Im gonna give 4ext a try.

4EXT is the best, I use the 4EXT Touch!

4EXT is compatible with clockworkmod, btw. You can restore any backups using 4EXT that were made with clockworkmod, and roms that work with clockworkmod will work with 4EXT. 4EXT is actually based upon the clockworkmod code base.

oh oh

i encountered the problem of corrupted theme of 4ext. im not sure how it happened. maybe because i flashed CM10.1 then returned back to ViperS ICS? not sure bout that. its not really a problem but its quite annoying to press okay every time i boot into recovery. hehe

Does the rom boot? If so just use the 4ext app to flash a new theme. That should overwrite whatever is corrupted. If that doesn't work reflash the recovery entirely. You can do that from the app too.
If that doesnt work comeback with a more detailed description of exactly what you get.

There is an app for 4ext. Its available for download on the play store. Its an absolute must have app if you use 4ext recovery. It makes life so much easier.

[Q] Does anyone have the black T-Mobile One S? What's the hboot version?

So I was considering selling my Silver/Blue gradient T-Mobile One S to purchase a Black T-Mobile MOA One S and I got to thinking...
Does anyone have this new official T-Mobile Black One S? Not a modified gradient version or an International version being used on T-Mobile.
I'm curious.. What is the hboot version on this new T-Mobile MOA Black One S? I currently have the 1.09 hboot on my gradient blue and I can flash radio/boot from recovery.
I'm assuming this new version of the One S is going to have the 1.14 or higher hboot but I'd still like to find out from someone who actually has the device.

Bump.. nobody knows?

I have the new black one s. Don't know the hboot, but I'm stock unrooted so whatever the hboot for any s4 will be the same out the box

Yeah I'm not usually afraid to try new complicated things with my phones but that guide just seems time consuming and incredibly risky if anything goes wrong.

I'm with you on that and well too be honest even on hboot .14 I don't miss it being lower, thanks to programs like Flash Image Gui flashing kernels and recoveries besides not downgrading radio I'm really not missing out on much. People seem to get stuck up on this for some bizarre reason.
