Is there an S-OFF available for HBOOT 1.20? Saw "locked" after flashing 1.20 and S-ONed phone. Finally unlocked using htcdev but nothing I found could help me downgrade HBOOT and do S-OFF again. Do not have SuperCID atm.
there is a thread on this your still rooted even though it says s on
Yeah, I am still rooted and can get into recovery and flash ROMs. But I am having issues with signal and I cannot flash anything because 1.20 does not support fastboot commands. I would like to downgrade but cannot. I tried flashing the customized p85img.zip with my CID T-MOB010 and it would just return to menu w/o any messages.
Make sure it's p85img in the file name.
Don't INSERT .zip at the end. It should automatically be a .zip file.
The file is named correctly.
There is a thread here ima try and find it were you can revert back to hboot 1.17.0000

i m facinf d same problm wit my sensation with bootloader unlocked thro htc dev. i m unable 2 flash any radios. Even i m unable to flash any custom firmware also. I need ur help if u found any solution.
either downgrade your hboot to 1.17 or update to ics 3.24 which has hboot 1.27 (unlocked) and you will have advance fastboot commands
Same exact problem here, semi-bricked my phone before I went over to Htcdev.... attempting to flash a p85img for HBOOT 1.17 or any p85img does nothing but parse it. Searched all day today couldn't find a thing to help...Others have suggested just waiting until Revolution comes out with an Unlock for 1.20 but I'm determined to find a solution for us.

HTCdev doesn't do unlock of bootloader automatically
they will just provide steps/step by step guide to how to do unlock process
i guess you need to register first..to do anything with your bootloader
give the details of the phone (when it asks ...i never knew because im already SOFF )
and get the unlock of bootloader done
right now there is no other unlock method other than HTCdev unlock...(remember it may void your warranty)
Also for SOFF via juopunutbear method here is the guide

Well i am registered but i when i press the button begin unlock bootloader nothing happened :s I will give it another try tommorow

HTC bootloader unlocked is succeeded!!
Can i now install recovery?? and in the tutorial for getting s-off with the wire trick, it says that you must have a unsecured boot.img < how do you get this??
sorry for being a noob ;P
oke now i have the bootloader unlucked, but when i'm trying to install clockwork recovery i get this:
Checking pg51img
then the phone reboots in bootloader
its checking again the pg51img and then it says this parsing pg51img and its goes back to the main screen of the bootloader :S

Make sure to name the file PG58IMG if you are using windows and keep it in the root of sdcard.
And boot into bootloader.. It should detect now.
If it still didn't work then flash the recovery.img via fast boot. I believe you already have fastboot/adb setup as you did unlocked your bootloader.
Get the image from here and keep it in your adb folder.

It's 4EXT recovery...
Command to flash
"fastboot flash recovery recovery.img "

Hi all
I have a desire s
android 2.3
HBOOT ***unlocked***
saga pvt ship s-on rl
HBOOT 2.00.0002
I have rooted last year I think I used superoneclick and now I want to S-off to get update rom so far I have:
downloaded revolutionary=Device not supported,
HTC\dev gone through webside instructions a few times flashed the unlock code they sent cmd says succesfull but it did nothing to phone which just stayed in fastboot. (tried a few times on xp and win7)
tried running the ruu from htc but that fails saying wrong version error 155 (tried a few times for some reason it wont start on my xp but runs ok on win7)
now I am stuck, could anyone please help?
Thanks Paul
Run RUU with HBoot version of 0.98.0000 or 0.98.0002 to be able to S-OFF with Revolutionary.

Hi
First:
In order to use revolutionary s-off, you'd need to lower your software version number(misc_version)
1. Lock your bootloader- fastboot oem lock
2, then flash correct RUU -matching your CID
3.use revolutionary....
Second:
As you state in your bootloader screen info,
, htcdev unlock worked indeed- your bootloader is UNLOCKED-as you've said yourself-
, that's what it does...
Third:
If you wish to update-as you said-then update to what?
a) official RUU saga 4.0.4:
1.and foremost- you must lock your bootloader again in order to flash a RUU
2.if your device is branded by any mobile carrier- must create gold card
, in order to flash WWE version of the RUU
3. Certainly you flash that in fastboot
b) custom ics rom:
1. There are many to chose from- much more sofisticated than the official RUU 4.0.4 release
2. Not need to s-off realy in order to flash most of them
3. You only have to flash boot.img from the rom you're flashing,, via fastboot (again)
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1146601
This is where it all begins
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2143855
And that is where people could render some knowledge for you
Edit:
Last but not least:
Keep unlock_token from htc- in a safe place because
, if you decide to upgrade by the official RUU
, you must unlock bootloader again in order to flash any custom rom
, and you do it by that same key (unlock_token)....
When there are any troubles with connection < pc- phone > check your windows drivers
Thank you.
I was trying to flash official ics but I will go for a custom instead.
I see now where I was going wrong thanks I thought I had to unlock the Hboot by making it s-off to flash official rom of ics, thats why it was failing because its unlocked.
Thank you

I think if you follow this thread you will find all your answers.

Also about the roms, my advice is read a bit about each one in the development section, and use the one you think will suit you more and like best. I personally use Albinoman's but everyone has his favourite choice. Good luck!

Hi,
If you are s-off and hboot 1.27 , then, you can flash any JB OR ICS ROM you like.
DO NOT GO TO HTC TO UNLOCK YOUR DEVICE!
Sent telepathically from my S4
You can flash any ROM, since the Phone is S-OFF!
But you are really advised to install Firmware-3.33 first! This is very important for any ROM to work well.
There is Universal Firmware-3.33 that would install on any device, but it is important what CID does the phone have now?
For this reason, very often people change the CID to 8 times 1, namely 11111111, which means "Any Region".
Check the CID via ADB Tools - Command Prompt right-click "Run As Administrator" and then after:
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot getvar cid
or the more detailed
fastboot getvar all

Need way more info my friend... R u s-on / s-off? Unlocked bootloader? Rooted? Bootloader details? What r you trying to achive?
To get bootloader details, pull the battery out for a min then put back in then press and hold volume down + power button (so both same time)
hey! thanks for the reply I know this is an old phone now .
heres what i know
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.00.0002
RADIO-3822.10.08.04_M
eMMc- boot
i can unlock bootloader i relocked it to use a RUU but it didnt work.
I just want my phone to work again regardless of version but iv tried 6 or 7 RUU and flashing roms etc
What I would adore is a link to a RUU that will work as they are just a exe but if there is amore complicated way id need simple steps to follow. I also have the htc desire s toolkit . it flashed a ruu zip for me and it all worked except the signature failed? so it didnt work
Thanks in advance
You can't install older RUU if you don't do misc_version or GOLDCARD.For me that worked.
You have to unlock bootloader(HTCDev) and flash recovery.img (I use 4ext).
Please check this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2273016.
From what I can see you want to install new rom or repair old.You can unlock your phone and flash any rom but install RUU you need newer RUU that match your CID.Check this guide.Be careful bc installing RUU you install new hboot radio and everything else.Not just system.
For you it's better to flash new rom when you unlock bootloader.Don't forget to flash boot.img via fastboot after you flash rom and gapps.
