flashing official roms (htc screen stuck) - HTC Desire S

My dad's desire s is stuck on the htc screen on boot.
I am wondering can i flash the official rom on to it to fix it?
I have already tried factory reset which it doesn't do anything and recovery does the same.
When i put it into the hard reset mode (vol down + power buttons) i get:
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.98.0000
RADIO-38.03.02.11_M
eMMC-boot

I have no idea where to find this rom. I have been looking around on the forum most of this evening and am I right in saying I have to use RUU to flash the rom?
I don't want to root the phone as it is my dad's and not my own. I have a GS2 and I can flash a rom without rooting the phone can I do the same with the Desire S?

man ur crazy!! ur never gona able to flash a custom rom without Rooting the desire s..
n more over the the phone shud b s-off for u to proceed!
read blogs on desire S development!

Ok thanks I thought cause I can flash an official room on my gs2 I might be able to do the same with my dads desire s. Looks like its back to the shop then.

Power off the phone.
Use the mentioned combo (vol down + power buttons) to get to hboot.
Select recovery from menu. The phone will boot to a black background with a red exclamation mark.
Press Volume Up and Power. You will enter the recovery menu.
Select wipe cache. When it finishes reboot the phone.
It should work again

Thanks but I tried that. It keeps freezing whatever I try. Factory reset freezes on hboot screen. And recovery just shows a black screen even when I left it for a while.

[Q] [PB] Blocked at start screen

Good afternoon,
I tried to apply the RUU update : RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_219480_signed
the installation went correctly (as it was told on the computer), but when the phone reboot for the first time, it get stuck on the HTC screen (white screen with HTC in green)
Before doing that operation I tried several ROMs so I installed the Revolutionnary recovery.
These are the information I get when I start the phone with (VOL Down + Power).
SAGA PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-6.98.1002
RADIO-3822.10.08.04_M
eMMC-boot
- I tried to apply an other RUU update, but the program cannot detect my phone (I get a USB error).
- I tried to enter in the recovery mode, but I am blocked on a screen with a phone and a little red triangle...
- I tried to force the update with loading my phone with a previous custom ROM renaming it "PG88IMG.zip" or "update.zip"
Do you have other ideas ??
I am still searching for a recovery ROM that I can force to be installed and from that I would be able to install another ROM but I cannot find this ...
please I need some help ...
Thank you in advance,
Romain
maybe it will work
I download the PG88IMG-RECOVERYIMG-v3.1.0.2-arco-mod.zip
I renamed it PG88IMG.zip
I reboot with the VOL Down + Power, and I think I update the recovery. I have to change the name, reboot and try to enter in the recovery mode ...
I cross my fingers ...
It worked !!!!!

weird that it is still S-ON why? if i did unlocked bootloader with htcdev
Don't pull battery, it can kill phone.
Did you flash boot.img ? Through fast boot? Did you perform full wipe before the flash?
If you use htcdev you don't change to s-off status, you stay s-on but unlocked, it's different, read more

Pulling the battery out should never be required. Hold down the Vol+, Vol- and Power button to force a full restart.
problem
i have a similar problem with you. after wiping cache, dalvik and system, i flashed Fallout v5.0 on my desire s, booted to fastboot and flashed the kernel, then hit the restart button. some applications update, then htc one logo comes up. all good until some errors shows up:"Unfortunately, Phone has stopped." and "Unfortunately, the process com.htc.bgp has stopped." and my phone goes to htc one logo again. the errors shows up in like 20-30 sec after the logo. what should i do?
Try to Fix Permissions from within your Recovery (4ext touch recovery or clockworkmod, whichever you have). That should mostly cure all these issues. You will find that in Tools.

are you rooted?
what exactly did you do and you get stucked?
the red triangle means that you don't have recovery installed
give bootloader details(unlocked or locked,S-ON or S-OFF etc)
also try to boot your device from the bootloader
No , s-on and im not rooted
i have locked

yes i meant that
but actually there is nothing you can do without losing all your data,backups etc
do factory reset or
if you have patience wait someone else to give you some other solution
but i doubt if there is anything to do without losing all your stuff
Anyone else ?

[Q] htc evo 3D only on bootloader

Hey guys i need help with my evo 3D i have been struggling to make it turn on. So half year ago I unlock the bootloader and rooted it. But the problem was that i could not make S-Off and i accidently wiped it and i installed a custom rom and it worked for 4 days but afterwards it started to reboot itself but it never passed the rom boot so then i installed the stock recovery and once it turned on it only let me select the language and then it turn off this was the last time i could make it turn on. Now it only goes into bootloader but it does not go into recovery, everytime i try to go into recovery th htc logo appears and it turns off, i tried to flash the recovery through fastboot, it does send it and write it on the phone but it never go into recovery. I also tried to install PG86IMG.zip ( with relocked and unlcked bootloader ) but it never ask me to update or not it only recognizes it. By the way i used Twrp modified recovery to install the custom roms, i have tried flash cwm recovery, recovery signed, twrp modified but it has not work. :crying::crying::crying: Thank you for reading this i would really appriciate your help guys .
