[Q] hboot 1.23

Hello, I'm on hboot 1.23 but s-on, I just want to know because somebody mentioned it before, an I actually stuck here? Literally forever? Because hboot 1.23 cannot flash other firmware files or any advanced fastboot commands.

I wrote a load of stuff then re-read the OP.
Ahh S-ON, eek.
As Revolutionary won't work, can you use the HTC method to get S-OFF ?
If you can then do the PG58IMG.zip files work from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
I flashed 1.27.1100 over 1.23.0000, then again I was S-OFF.

HTC method to s-off? Never heard of it.

But unlocking the bootloader via HTC might help

OK Sorry wrong terminology, I was referring to: http://htcdev.com/bootloader
I know many folks have used the HTC unlock method, I don't know what the limitations with it are as I used Revolutionary. My thoughts were can you use the HTC Unlock process then flash the F/W using PB58IMG.zip back to 1.17 the use revolutionary to get full S-OFF. I don't know if that's possible but ......
I know they keep a record that you've used it on your phone.

no, that doesn't give you s-off, it just unlocks your bootloader, but thanks for trying!

It will not, it still leaves you s off, meaning you can't flash radios, firmwares, etc.

Ahh, it was just a thought. I guess 1.23 S-ON is on his phone for a while then :-(

I'm guessing its on till revolutionary updates.....if it ever does.

Either that or a new release RUU with hboot higher than 1.23, such as an official ICS RUU that will hopefully be released in March. The test RUUs that are currently available don't work - see here:

*Edit* Never mind... I guess after getting SuperCid it worked.
How did you flash to 1.27.1100? I have been trying to get my firmware updated so I can get ICS on my Sensation but it keeps giving me the "remote: not allowed" error. I have S-Off.

Flash the firmware from Mike's sticky. 3.24/3.25 gives hboot 1.27.1100, but I think this version is included with later fw releases too.
Does the remote: not allowed error appear in bootloader, relating to a particular part of the fw update - e.g. radio?

How to get eng S-off

Before everyone jumps all over my a$$ and directs me to a "guide", here's the situation.
I ran the revolutionary S-off tool once before
Somehow I am now "SHIP S-OFF"
Revolutionary S-OFF tool won't run (I think because I'm HBOOT 1.23)
I've searched and searched but I gave up. Does anyone know what to do from here?

Try ur original ruu

Just flash the firmware from one of the two threads in development. Both have options with hboot 1.17 eng s-off I think.
Have you superCID?

If you intend to run ICS 1.17 is no bueno. You can just flash the 1.17 h boot. It's in the development forum.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G XE with Beats Audio using xda premium

Thanks for the help. I'm sure it has been covered many times before.
I don't want to paint myself into a corner, so tell me if this the right order of things:
Flash 1.17 HBOOT
S-off
flash original RUU
Boot up and flash new radio for the ROM I want (Revolution HD)
flash new ROM
Can I cut any of these steps out?
I can't flash firmware until I'm S-off
Cant S-off until I go HBOOT 1.17

I flashed the 1.17 HBOOT and it said I was CID:11111111
After flashing firmware 3.32, it says CID:TMOB010. WTF? Do I have to SuperCID each time?

Are you checking from fastboot with adb or terminal? Terminal will show your original cid. Fastboot shows your actual cid. I only ever had to super cid once and I flash firmwares all the time.

[Q] I was stupid again :(

Hey guys,
tonight I tried to unlock my HBoot 1.27 Sensation with T-Mobile Germany branding.
I used the htcdev method successfully. Then I installed 4ext recovery.
Till now everything was fine.
But then I thought, I could wipe the old T-Mobile stuff from NAND, in order to install CM9.
But now I have an empty S-On, htcdev unlocked phone and can not install any ROM, because there are no ICS RUU files availble for TMobile Germany phones.
4ext recovery is working fine.
So, what can I do now to S-OFF my phone, or to get any ROM on it?
I do not own any backups

for your situation see this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
if you want to S-OFF see this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1661631

[Q] Cant get it to run..

So i have an older SENSATION, and i have it working fine with CM10.2 and everything, but my microphone wont work, so I bought a new one, and i tried to do the same steps but it is not working.
I have been able to unlock bootloader. COMFIRMED, i locked it and unlocked it just to make sure.
It has on bootloader showing.

I would like to S-OFF, and get it running like my other phone, if anyone can help me, I would be willing to donate the other phone, shipping paid, to the person of your choice ( Do note the phone has a problem with mic, where the volume is low, its probably dirty, but im too scared to try to take it apart, and would rather it be put to good use.)
EDIT: Got it past the white HTC screen for now, dont know why this time it is so difficult...
it boots HTC in green letters, then the HTC QUIETLY BRILLIANT, and lastly TMOBILE stick togeter, and then it reboots. I flashed it with 4EXT Recovery Touch in SMART MODE, but idk if it matters if im S-OFF or S-ON or what I am suppose to boot..

If you are trying with an ics or jb rom it won't boot because you are still on gb firmware
Use revolutionary.io method to s-off
After s-off flash universal firmware 3.33
But before flashing check md5 sums it is important
Then you can flash and boot any ics or jb rom

that is a patched hboot which is unlocked and free to every fastboot command
now flash 3.33 universal from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
follow the instructions to the letter
and before flashing check md5 sums(important)
after firmware upgrade you have to flash from recovery an ics or jb rom
because your current rom won't boot with ics firmware
