[Q] Need help my Htc desire S wouldn´t boot

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:
Bootloader data:
*** Security Warning ***

do I need an Goldcard now or may I unlock the bootloader again? to S-off
but I haven´t got a adb connection (my System Windows 7)
Need Support pls
I´ve tried to install the newest RUU with an extracted rom.zip and rename it into PG88IMG.zip
but it told me "main version older"
Hope you can help me ....

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 ...

HTC One S [S3] Stock recovery

Hello,
Please somebody to help me with "Stock recovery" for HTC One S , S3 version.
Thank you in advance

Hello guys,
Try this:
Step 1: relock the bootloader (start your phone in fastboot, open cmd, got to folder where are fastboot files, type "fastboot oem lock" )
Step 2: find your desired stock jb or ics online. http://filesdownload.net/showthread.php?70-HTC-One-S-(-RUU_VILLE-)-(-RUU_VILLEC2-)
Step 3: connect your phone to the pc in fastboot (make sure you have the htc drivers installed).
Step 4: run the RUU or stock file as an exe. An installation guide will follow, just follow it through.
Step 5: Now you are in stock ROM:good:
It should work after this!
On my HTC One S [S3] , CID HTC_032 works

I have attached the stock recovery enjoy!!!!!!!!!!

You can't access the recovery as it does not match the checks your bootloader is making to test if its the right one. You need to unlock again to access recovery and remove the security warning i believe.

[Q] Selling my One S, making it stock?

Hi. I'm selling my phone since I've bought HTC One Black. So... is there a way to erase everything and make it as it was stock?
Guess I need to do this:
1. S-Off to S-On
2. Flash this: villec2-jb-crc-3.4.10-055bd56.zip from http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads
3. Remove root
?
I just received an OTA update but it can't be installed, so therefore I want to make it stock so that the new user won't experience any problems...

Your are S-OFF?
So you need to follow this instrucition:
http://androidforums.com/one-s-all-things-root/691213-how-get-back-stock-facepalm-s-off.html

Some phones early phones were shipped S-Off. You do not need to S-Off. Just go back to stock and change the bootloader back to locked.

You have a stock bootloader. I take it you mean a stock recovery. Google HTC Ville S4 Stock Recovery and explore.

flash stock recovery, relock bootloader and run the ruu.
if the ruu makes any problems while your phone is up, try to boot into fastboot usb and run the ruu again.
dont forget to run the ruu as admin and be sure you have the latest htc sync drivers installed.
good luck

You have to update your HBOOT in order to flash 3.16.401.8 RUU, I've got problems flashing this RUU too. You need hboot 2.15 for this, if you're s-off you can easy update it following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39216236&postcount=274 remember to change your CID to SUPER CID: 11111111 or you may have issues flashing hboot.

yeah it's kind a bug you get stuck at 75%, just type in prompt command:
adb reboot bootloader
you should boot into bootloader and see the new hboot version.

Now we should be able to install a Stock ROM RUU - I am still looking for one that fits.
...and start all over.
What I did to get into this trouble:
- made some experience with an old Motorola Defy and a Samsung Galaxy S3
- got this HTC Desire S with german Telekom branding
- said: " oh no problem, I'll fix you old phone for you." <-- first mistake
- installed the drivers (HTC Sync)
- updated latest android SDK
- used fastboot to unlock <-- second mistake?
- installed ClockworkMod
- rebooted and recognized the T-Branding before the recovery screen coming up
- ignored it <-- third mistake
- OS crash
