Right guys i know im new here but have a big problem. Now i got my UK Virgin Desire S and decided to root to flash custom roms.
Stated before with :
Saga PVT Ship S-ON RL
Hboot 0.98.0002
Radio 3805.06.02.03_m
Emmc-Boot
March 30th 2011
So i used revolution to root and turn S off. I did a backup once installed.
I then flashed the ICS custom rom v4 off here and it was too buggy so decided on a standard rom (the latest i could find : RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.8_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_225161_signed) so thopught i could flash it straight away, so i did.
It didnt finish but flashed radio and the latest Hboot so now i am on :
Saga PVT Ship S-ON RL
Hboot 2.00.0002
Radio 3822.10.08.04_m
eMMC-Boot
Aug 22 2011
So after the flash i was left with this and no rom but still had the clockwork recovery to flash custom roms but they wouldnt load due to the S-ON.
Now i have tried to flash the original restore from the backup i did but it keeps saying md5 checksum wrong, i have even flashed standard recovery rom using fastboot and tried to flash different RUU's (have downloaded and tried 6 now with failures on all of them with error 155)
Now im sure it must be something to do with the Security being on but i cant understand why it wont flash the backup i made that was off my phone in the first place. I have looked for a UK Virgin RUU with no avail so have been trying all the Europe ones.
Now i have noticed when trying to update the rom it is saying update from image : 1.47.351.2 if that helps.
Would really appreciate some help here guys and im sorry for being a noob.
Regards

With HBOOT 2.00.0002 you have to go to HTCDEV.com and follow the procedure to unlock your bootloader. Then I would suggest looking at The post on how to downgrade from HBOOT 2.00.0002.

Hello guys,
I have a big problem!!!! I hope you can help me!!!
I flashed my HTC Desire S (model S510e) a few weeks ago... it works wirly good
then the new Htc Sense 3.0 withe Gingerbread 2.3.5 released.
I want to flash it but I need an S-ON Hboot so I take it to S-On again.
But the problem is that I have installed an Custem rom from VirtousUnity 2.39
and now the Hboot told me *** Security Warning*** **** what should I do now?
I have it downgraded from hboot 0.98.0002 to 0.98.0000 to get S-On again.
And then I would flash the new RUU from HTC.. Now I could only boot into the bootloader and
when I want to install the RUU with the HTC utillity it told me error 140...
It was an Htc Desire with T-Mobile branding From Germany I´ve debranded it and installed VirtousUnity
with 4EXT Recovery...
Data from the DS:

You badly needed a GoldCard. I would suggest to RUU first to the latest version, 2.xx then downgrade if need be. You have already downgraded your HBOOT. The only thing your missing is RUU. But RUU is giving you an error. Now you need a GoldCard.
A lot of guides, steps, and tutorials are found on the forum. No need to place it here.
Yes I know that I need an GoldCard and I also had the cid but it won´t work ... -.- thats the problem

There are a lot of threads on how to make a GoldCard even without a phone. Check also my sig as thats the method I use. Use search for others.
No GoldCard = phone un-usable.
See index for gold card thread, see sig for link
Swyped from my Desire S using XDA Premium
Non of the suggested methods will get the CID, cause they rely on the phone being booted or adb, since the phone is booting into fastboot and no custom recovery means no adb.
same problem here ...

i also have cwm recovery
however, when i install ANY rom i end up in a boot loop. what could be the problem?
i think im supposed to install a 1.27 hboot? can anyone link me the file?
ill continue reading up in the mean time
Are you flashing the appropriate firmware for the ROM? For ICS ROM's you will need to update your firmware and HBOOT to V3.32 with HBOOT 1.27.000.

Hi,
Yes, you need to flash the appropriate firmware,which for ICS is 3.32
This will give hboot 1.27 ,and the radio you need as well.
Look HERE
It explains everything in detail,and gives you all the links you need...
thanks, ill check it out
EDIT: nice.. after searching for mirrors to files i got it working.. good stuff
hi all, im in need of assistance
a good while ago, before the new 4.0 update, i rooted my htc sensation (on an Australian carrier)
everything was fine until i tried to apply the new update. as it seems for many, the update did not install and came up with a blue android symbol with an exclamation mark. without backing up or checking the requirements for a custom ROM, i went ahead and applied it straight away. unfortunately, i had the wrong hboot update and radio. now i need a stock rom to flash that will work with my situation.

revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4 is currently working, so i can still flash roms.
please reply when possible, thank you!
I have spent a week driving myself insane with this phone and now it won't boot and I cannot seem to get is back to factory settings.
I tried to follow guides here for rooting but I could not get them to work.
In the end I used this guide (including the unlock bootloader via htcdev) and it got my phone rooted.
I then thought it would be a great idea to install the viper S rom... It was not. Now the phone will not go past the ht sensation logo on boot and I cannot get the firmware here (phone parses the file and then does nothing on the bootloader), the odexed stock image here or the any other image like this to install.
Please can someone tell me how to get this phone working again?
This whole thing has really stressed me out, I would be really grateful if someone could just give me some simple instructions. An image to flash via clockwork would be great. I have tried for days to do it my self but am starting to go crazy.

the problem is when you are flashing a rom when you are S-ON it has not the ability to flash the boot partition by itself
you have to flash the boot.img of the rom manually or
flash 4ext recovery ,enable smartflash from it and then flash the rom.see here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
edit:in order to upgrade your firmware you have to be S-OFF
