Welcome.
There are few similar posts but any of them match this case.
Pretty simple, I did install a root, now i want to unroot my phone.
I though that apps can be added only by a root action. lol
Now i cannot update my phone prop.
Here i post some informations.
Desire S was:
on HBoot ver. 0.98.0000 // S-ON
T Mobile
Now is:
SAGA PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-6.98.1002
RADIO-38.03.02.11_M

Shoul I flash any of official ROMs ?
Is there any T-Mobile's ROM that will be able to update to the newest?
How can i make a backup to restore all of my messages, pictures, etc?
Thanks for posts.

Such a great advice! Thanks!
One more question, will it keep my operator safe?
It's T-Mobile by the way.

the guide says not to use this if you have a network branded device,so i dont think you can do it
but im curious why do you want to be s-on?

Its not about S-ON correctly. Its about beeing able to update software by 'oryginal' way. After I did root my phone I cannot do this anymore.
There was an update that showed me an exclamation mark in yellow triangle with droid's logo. I guess that was an error, wasn't it?

[Q] Revolutionary S-OFF Hboot 1.18.0000 not supported

hi there, I have a problem with my Sensation XE.
I am trying to S-OFF my Sensation but running Revolutionary.io it always says that my device was found but also that Hboot 1.18.0000 is not supported at this time. it is very strange because i can select this Hboot on their website when acquiring Beta key and I read that they have been supporting this Hboot for months now.
Device: Sensation XE
Hboot: 1.18.0000
Android : 2.3.4
Rom: 1.73.720.2
your help is much appreciated, i spent hours to try to fix it up, but no luck.

Did you installed the drivers? Deinstall all programs from your PC that communicate with your phone (htc sync, mobile phone explorer, etc...)

thanks for your reply, done that, but still it doesn't work..

I used recovery for my 1.18.0000 sensation no problems. After I was rooted I was a 1.17.xxxx. Make sure you have the latest version of recovery mod with all updates. Happy Flashing

I have that Hboot version too but on my HTC ONE V can i also S-OFF my phone?

According to the list of supported phones, no (at least not with revolutionary). Why don't you check in the One V section?

Hi,
Your ROM version is too high.
Because you have an XE phone,you need a RUU with a ROM version of 1.50 or less.
Contact FOOTBALL
He may be able to help.
If you cannot get your ROM version down,you will have to use the "Wire Trick".

Just tidying up some old threads

Safe to be on an old HBOOT while on ICS?

Alright guys,
So I've got my phone running ARHD ICS.
I've flashed the firmware package that mike linked in the ARHD thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412618 ) and then flashed the actual rom.
I've been reading around that in able for the rom to boot the radio must be upgraded and before that the HBOOT must be updated as stated in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
I still have the original revolutionary 1.27 HBOOT with the 11.21.3504 radio w/o any noticable problems and I'm wondering if this will negatively impact the performance/stability of my phone.
Should I update the HBOOT to the 3.24 unlocked HBOOT or am I okay the way I am now?

Leave it like that, if it starts rebooting or freezing then try flashing the newest FW.
I'm using Virtuous Inquisition with 3.12 and it works just fine

You are already having tghe latest HBOOT . V3.24 is the firmware version . In this firmware , HBOOT is V1.27 . So you have a little misunderstanding. V3.24 firmware is actually includes the HBOOT 1.27 , Radio 11.21.3504 . So don't worry. You are fully up to date. Just chill and play with ICS

Stock to Sense 5

I'm trying to update my Evita phone to the newest Sense 5 OTA. Currently, I'm on 4.0.3. I've modified the **** out of this phone previously, I have SuperCID and the bootloader is unlocked, but I flashed a RUU before I gave it to my brother and now the hboot is at 1.01.0000. Radio is 0.15.3201.09. Phone is currently unrooted. I'm wondering what my options are now.
I have the OTApkg for the Sense 5 update, but when I try to apply it in stock recovery, I get an error like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Note that I did do this on stock recovery and did not wipe beforehand. Not sure if it makes a difference, but based on the error, I think I may have to update to a newer stock version for it to work? I'm not 100% certain, but I figured I'd put this out there before I did anything further to avoid messing things up. I'd appreciate some quick help on this. Thanks!

That hboot and radio number are really old. It was actually a leak before the phone was even released. That is a pretty weird RUU to have flashed.

It absolutely makes a difference. The phone needs to be up to date in order for the OTA to install. OTAs often do not have all modules present (such as hboot modules). They just include what has been changed since the previous OTAs. Meaning if the OTA had actually installed (on your device which is missing several OTAs), you probably would have bricked your phone.
You need to update to 3.18 before you can install the Sense 5 update.

[Q] Personal help soft-bricked HTC One Mini

Can someone help me personally with installing back Android 4.4.2 and Sense 5.5 on my soft-bricked HTC One Mini,
Thanks in advance.
Already several things installed and HTC One Mini Tampered and Unlocked already.
Joost

Why not Sense 6.0?
Edit: I can help you install InsertCoin if you want to

Can you describe the soft brick?

Soft-bricked HTC One Mini
Sense 6.0 is the reason why it all started.
I did an update from 5.5 to 6.0 and didn't like it, that's why I tried to restore.
Now I would be glad if it would work with Sense 6.0.
What is InsertCoin?

Soft-bricked HTC One Mini
At the moment I have no OS installed. I have unlocked and tampered already.
Reason why I would have 4.4.2 Sense 5.5 is because I do not like 6.0.
By abuse I deleted my OS.
I have already installed TWRP.
Could you help me?

I guess u didn't make a backup with TWRP?

Soft-bricked HTC One Mini
Indeed i didn't make a back-up with TWRP.
Why is it that you can install Insert coin and no other OS?
I do have the Stock rom...
Can I see some lay out of Insert Coin?
Thanks in advance,
Joost
