Is it possible?

Hrm.
Well, I am on bootloader 1.20 without super cid. The zip meant to roll me back to 1.17 is giving me an error about an incorrect model id.

You need to add your CID and MID into.android-info.txt in the zip file.
fastboot getvar cid
fastboot getvar mid
Those are the commands I think

Gotcha. At that point, I should be able to use fastboot to super cid then flash the new firmware, correct?

Won't be able to use fastboot flash because that is an extended fastboot command and the new hboot doesn't support extended, only basic so you will have to flash the PG58IMG.zip through hboot

Okay. (Intermittently doing work right now. Thanks so much for the help.)
I add my cid and mid info to the zip that rolls me back to 1.17. Have that on my sd and boot into bootloader.
Now, I'd be 1.17, which should allow me to use fasboot to be super cid.
At this point, I can use an update zip for the new firmware, again putting it on the sd card and going into the bootloader.
Am I missing a step?

you can use fastboot on hboot 1.20. just supercid your phone and then flash the zip without changing anything

I have the same problem but I cannot get my Cid and Mid as Hboot 1.20 does not support the fastboot commands to get these. I've tried and it just hangs on waiting for device.

Remove "RELOCKED" on bootloader

Hi, I unlocked the bootloader with htcdev.com method. Then I relocked it because of hardware problem and I need to get it repaired.
But in the bootloader I see "RELOCKED", how can I remove it?
I already flashed twice the original RUU, but it didn't work.
Help me please!

Hi, I am having this same problem, except my bootloader is still UNlocked. How do I

thats fine having relock wont hurt OTA update
the only requirements for OTA are
1.cid
2.stock recovery
3.stock non rooted rom
For this method you must have S-OFF!!
To remove the "RELOCKED" you must do this:
1. Download an HBoot from here Download
2. Put the downloaded PG58IMG.zip on your SD card. Attention!!! Do it in no folder!
3. Go into Bootloader
4. Follow the options on your screen.
5. Now you should have an HBoot called "REVOLUTIONARY"
6. If yes go on
7. Download an Sensation RUU
8. Go on with the RUU.
9. If it is done, go again in the bootloader
10. Now it called "LOCKED" S-OFF
11. If yes type this in ADB:
Code:
fastboot writesecureflag 3
fastboot reboot-bootloader
12. When your Sensation reboots and it shows you S-ON you are done
Attention: you are only take the responsibility for maybe bricks!!!

phil thats all fine
but even after doing all that he will still have RELOCKED
the problem is if after SOFF ..if any person did HTC-DEV unlock ...and relock he cant make it LOCKED ...but can only make it RELOCK (even Running RUU will give him RELOCKED only)
the only way ...is to go to stock ICS ..SON...then wire trick again (JB SOFF) ..that will give you either locked hboot or juopunutbear hboot (in jb hboot case a simple flash of stock hboot will take him back to locked state)
But he flash with my variation a Revolutionary HBoot.

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.

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:

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?

[Q] Bricked HTC Sensation 4G ?!

Today , i successfully rooted my HTC Sensation 4G, everything was working totally fine, but then I wanted to install and custom ROM , called Super Villain Shensation.
I followed everything like the instructions told me to, but it says that the installation was aborted. and when i want to reboot my phone, it just stays on the white HTC logo screen, and doesnt do anything. I am able to get to the bootloader, but when i try recovery the same thing happens. what do i do !?
First of all, it is not bricked. Moving forward you need to re-download the ROM to make sure it is not a corrupted download, then try to flash again.
In order it would be:
-re download ROM again (I would personally suggest a ginger bread ROM that doesn't require you to flash firmware and such)
-download super wipe
-put them both in your sd card, somewhere where you could find the files
-go into your recovery and flash the super wipe zip (found in the Android Revolution thread)
-flash ROM
-let it boot (it will take about 5 minutes)
-done

Go to your bootloader like previous poster said and paste this file in the root of your sd card.
-Press the up volume rocker once you get the prompt to do it
If everything goes the way is suppose to go, you will be able to get into recovery again and flash whatever ROM you like.

What is you hboot if it's 1.18 or below and since you're r now s-on you need to run an ruu for ics that is closes to you stock rom. To upgrade your firmware to an ics compatible firmware. If it's 1.2x then you can htc-dev unlock and if you want s-off use jb then flash 4ext recovery even if your just htc-dev unlock. If your just htc-dev unlocked in 4ext enable smart flash. Now your good to go!

How to get eng S-off

I ran the revolutionary S-off tool once before
Somehow I am now "SHIP S-OFF"

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.

Pulled the radio.img from inside the firmware folder.
Flashed the radio via fastboot, (it will probably fail depending on your HBOOT) then rebooted my bootloader, and the "Tampered" was gone and hasn't came back.

writing 'radio'...

fastboot reboot-bootloader right after didn't do the trick as well. ****
This didn't work for me either with hboot 1.06/s-off. I understood we needed and engineering hboot to flash a radio from fastboot.
I have hboot 1.06, before s-off i can flash radio with fastboot without any problem, with S-OFF i can't flash with fastboot.
But i can flash on recovery with this Sense-Radio-Installer-V4.zip
