If you don't get the update after this change, you have done something else to your phone which causes the update to not be able to detect you're eligible for the update. I have changed my CID to HTC__E11 (because I'm Dutch) and I used the stock ROM which can be obtained from here. I also changed the device back to S-ON, but I'm not sure if that is necessary.
Edit: solved using the juopunutbear's wire-trick.
Hi everybody!
Few months ago I have followed the guide of dryogeshd: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1535987
I have unrooted but no s-off.
Now it's time to upgrade the ROM ( actually LeeDrOiD_3D_V5.3.0 ) and I looked to news about s-off.
My device is:
HTC EVO 3D X515m (shooteru-1.49.0012, Android: 2.3.4, ROM version: 1.24.165.1) cid VODAP405
unlocked

Hi,
I suppose, your device is not supported yet. You can try the following method.
Copy the PG86IMG to the root of your SD card, just let it flash through boot loader... Then try revolutionary tool.

Tnx dryogeshd.
You are right, revolutionary not support my device.
Flashing the pg86img (md5 429663bda14fc353f3ef64c9cab11620 ) don't change
hboot-1.49.0012.
I can't understand why in the old version of leedroid the wifi worked. Bad about the signal distance, but working.
Maybe using Free 3VO_V2 as changed something? (just relock the device and add RADIO-10.13.9020.29_M in fastboot, keep cid VODAP405)
I have now tried also a PG86IMG for 1.20.401.2RUU, find here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1218196
but another hole in the water.
What do you think about the wire trick?

Hi, I have solved using the juopunutbear's wire-trick.
Now I am s-off, hboot-1.49.9999.

Hi there.
I've got an unbranded htc sensation device (manufactured for india). lat week i updated to cm9, and accidentally got a 1.29 hboot. after that I tried to flash the stock ICS for my pyramid. so, the situation is:
cid HTC__038
hboot version 1.29.0000
radio 11.24A.3504.31_m
openadsp v05.6.0.2226.00.0418
pyramid pvt ship s-on locked.
working adb, fastboot connection
i've got no working rom on the device, stuck in fastboot-loop.
there is no possibility to use revolutionary s-off because of hboot version 1.29, and because the non-working system (cannot put in debug mode)
i tried to flash the lastest 3.33 firmware, bit it still uses a previous version of hboot. (something messed up with signature check fail)
i cannot flash a non-official rom befause s-on.
do i have any possible steps to make my phone working with ics+sense?
all the answers will be "thanked" & btw sorry for my bad english

I actually did this, with the same results. Is it a possible way if modify the partitions by a partitioning software running on pc, and manually edit the partitions' files, changing them to the correct ones, came from the official rom.zip file? I think (dont hit me if i was wrong), this way I can bypass all the s-on and locked bootloader stuff, maybe I can downgrade from hboot 1.29 without wire tricks, and install the stock ICS for pyramid.
what about the PG58IMG stuff? I can modify the removable sd card's files, so i can insert PG58IMG things to root, the phone is actually reads it. what if I somehow inject the Unlock_code.bin into some kind of PG58IMG, and apply this way the unlocking?
could be anything of these upper is working?

Nope can't/won't work
We could try one thing... Try changing cid
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
Then ignore errors and reboot
fastboot reboot-bootloader
And check cid again
fastboot getvar cid
If it changed then you can very well flash European unbranded ruu and then boot to a working rom
If it not worked.. Then send a PM to FOOTBALL and ask for Indian ruu.. He might charge some minimal amount based on the scarcity of the ruu.. But if you got proper Indian ruu then you will come out of the boot loop fine

cid change is done, now it's HTC_001.
i tried to flash RUU-Pyramid-ICS-hTC-Europe-3.33.401.53-Radio-11.76A.3504.00U-11.24A.3504.31-M-release-280871-signed's rom.zip from the temp, renamed to PG58IMG, copied to sdcard's root.
phone said: "lower hboot version"
is there any stock htc ROM with hboot 1.29?
if no, is it a possible way to change the zip to contain a 1.29 hboot version?
edit: i've got no bootloop, but at power-on I'm suddenly passed to fastboot screen without any boot process
but fastboot usb connection is always working, fastboot devices responses are always positive.

Awesome... That will solve our issue now
Do this copy the New PG58IMG zip file to your fastboot folder
And try these commands one by one
fastboot erase cache (if failed ignore it)
fastboot oem rebootRUU (black screen with silver HTC)
fastboot flash zip PG58IMG.zip (if failed stop there and don't do any thing else and simply paste back the output here)
fastboot reboot
Done
Edit: if the fail at third step is.. Something like.."Hboot pre update... Please flush the rom immediately again"] then repeat the third step again. (i.e this one fastboot flash zip PG58IMG.zip)

To change MID you need S-OFF. The RUU checks MID so if the 3.33.401.153 RUU fails try the 3.33.401.53 one

Ahh as suspected
What happened is you have somehow flashed sensation xe hboot and rest of them have normal sensation counterparts...
I need you to do something now... Download the universal 3.33 firmware from kohr-ah firmware thread in sensation development section..
Then extract the zip
Open android-info.txt file and replace version-main with 3.33.401.53
And save it
Also you have the rom.zip of the normal sensation 3.33.401.53 right.. Get the hboot.nb0 (the name will be big but the extension remains same) and replace the hboot.nb0 present in the firmware zip with this one..
Then remake the firmware.. PG58IMG.zip
Then try to flash this... Obviously it will fail.. But if that replaces the hboot you are having then all is well
So after the above exercise.. You need to try flashing normal sensation rom.zip again
Hopefully it works

Hi, I have a very frustrating problem with my HTC One Mini.
Out of nowhere, my phone won't boot into the OS but goes straight into the bootloader.
This is what my bootloader looks like:

I can't perform a factory reset and I can't get into recovery either. I tried to unlock the phone so I could flash the recovery and install a ROM from there. So I went to htcdev.com and started the bootloader unlock process. I downloaded the Unlock_code.bin file and tried to flash the unlock token:
Code:
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
target reported max download size of 800227328 bytes
sending 'unlocktoken' (0 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.156s]
writing 'unlocktoken'...
(bootloader) unlock token check successfully
OKAY [ 0.016s]
finished. total time: 0.172s
Nothing happens on the phone after this. I read on the forums I maybe had to run a RUU so I went to the HTC ROM download page and downloaded the RUU and ran it. The phone rebooted but didn't go into RUU mode. After some time, I get a USB Connection error (171).
I tried to get into RUU mode with fastboot but that also doesn't work.
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU

From here, I don't know what to do next and I hope you can help me.
Thanks in advance.
Welcome to the XDA forums, Vyperz52! I'm currently trying to solve a very similar problem with my HTC One Mini, and I have one suggestion that might help. Have you tried flashing some different form of recovery? Trying to flash TWRP recovery might work, it didn't for me but it's worth a try [https://twrp.me/devices/htconeminigsm.html]. Try the Fastboot install method (reading and accepting the risks that come with trying to install different recovery software).

My phone is still locked so I think that's why flashing the recovery fails.

i have stuck in the 10th step of htcdev.com
any ideas why i cant see the warning on the phone?

I contacted HTC about the bootloader unlock issue but they won't help because they don't recommend unlocking the BL because it can cause the phone to crash and become unusable. After which I replied to them that's already the case without doing the unlock.
hi guys i got the same problem as you i m stuck on bootloader menu my phone looks like this

I shouldn't need to unlock bootloader in order to flash stock rom
go to developer options and check the option - enable oem unlock.then reboot and run the command.
Also how can your phone be bricked with a locked bootloader?It does not make sense .YOu cannot flash ROms on a locked bootloader and if your phone is bricked then that means your bootloader has to be unlocked!!!
