i have unlocked my desire s with HTCdev and flashed a custom rom
(Virtuous Quattro RC3)
but i will get back to stock rom.

maybe you want to delete your imei and serial no. from your first post. should not be spread over the world wide web... right?
and you never know who reads that
edit: ok, you unlocked with htcdev... its already too late..
Hello Everyone.
I had the same problem as the author of this thread had and his solution works for me. but what should I do next to install custom ROM on this device? i'm new to HTC, i know how to do it when you have Sony(Ericsson) or SAMSUNG or even LG but HTC is just complicated for me.
Let me know how to search for my solution and I will be on my own.

Hi guys,
I am new here, so maybe I missed something.
Anyway, I followed the tutorial step-by-step to unlock my HTC Desire S which I got today (so it has a 2.x bootloader) like stated here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1443636
But I can't seem to install any RUU cause of "Error 131", as told in the tutorial, I must use the RUU for my specific region.
So, my Region is Germany and my phone is from o2.
So first I used
RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.11_M_release_177977_signed.exe
Click to expand...

because Germany is in Europe. And the only GER RUU is from "TMO" which may mean "T-Mobile" I guess. But it didn't work.
Next I thought "**** that ****" and I tried to flash (after repeating all tutorial steps):
RUU_Saga_TMO_DE_1.30.111.1_Radio_20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.11_M_release_178580_signed.exe

But it still shows up "Error 131"... so now I am depressed. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
Thank you very much

Hi there,
You need to flash the RUU that is supported by your phone's version.
Turn the phone into fastboot mode (voldown + power), click fastboot, wait till it shows fastboot usb.
Open console in PC and find the android tools, type:
<androidtool dir>\ fastboot getvar all
It should come up as: INFOversion etc.
What you need to look for is INFOversion-main and INFOcidnum
Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1002506
and download the RUU that matches!
If you've S-OFF'd the phone with Revolutionary, then RUU will have some problems with overwriting the bootloader, follow this guide to re S-ON.

Very helpful reply buddy.
But i don't think the last line applies to him. He said he just got the phone, and it had the v2.xxx hboot to begin with, so he went looking to downgrade. If he had acheived S-off, he wouldn't be asking how to S-off in the first place.
@OP : You should try using a Goldcard when faced with a difficult choice of Region-specific RUUs. Try making one (Use Search function) and then re-running the European RUU. (You may also have to check your Misc_version to ensure compatibility, or you may hit a roadblock again.
Hi,
I just wanted to confirm for further searches / use that what has been stated inside the first answer is fully working.
I got my Desire S downgraded, S-OFFed and was able to flash MIUI, so it's finding it's way to my girlfriend as birthday present soon thank you for helping.
hi,
first , I dont speak english, so I'm trying little bit and I will use google transalte a lot of time (speak french if somebody do it !)
I can't do mu desire s in s-off, cause the version of hboot is : 2.00.0002
I've tried this solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1443636 but when i'm trying to install rom I have a message error 155 and bad ID (not seems regions !), and I've try to do it with htc supetools and no result !
My phone is root , and unlocked bootloader, an i install 4extrecovery
but since 3 day I'm trying to do it S-off and I can't
is there somebody to help me please ?

Try this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604255 >>> This will downgrade your hboot to 0.98.XXXX, read through replies they simplify the steps further.
Then follow this guide: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvg0i8in96M >>> to S-OFF your phone via revolutionary.
It helped me S-OFF my phone. I have same problem like you days ago, i was S-ON, hboot unlocked, rooted and hboot 2.00.0002. Now I'm S-OFF and permanently rooted. Hope this helps!
If I'm not mistaken (and most likely I'm not), you can't downgrade a phone without locking the bootloader first. So you need to lock the bootloader and flash RUU - and you're not using the correct guide for it. You need to do some steps that aren't in the guide.

Correct, but that's after you change your misc version, which is in the guide. Locking the bootloader is part of the steps, so no worries there, RUU's are also there, I think there's one from his region so no problem. Take it from me, I started from S-ON, rooted (temp i think), boot unlocked and hboot 2.00.0002 and the guide is noob fail-safe, given you researched enough to know what you're doing, and you just do what it tells you. You'll do the deed right.
Sorry, I was replying to the OP, but you posted before me so it looks like I'm replying to you instead. I meant the guide he mentioned in his OP, not your guide.

I tried this, but the last step does not work with me, I can not bring the command line because cmd does not detect my phone when it is in bootloader, or maybe I'm wrong to maneuver?
Code:
then type in command prompt.
- fastboot oem lock
P.S: the bootloader is unlock with htcdev.com

What do you mean by "region": is the region where I live, or that or the phone was for its manufacture? if this is the second time how to recognize the region because I have not bought new?

Before starting with everything, turn on USB Debugging (settings>developer options) and turn off Fast boot (settings>Power) in your phone.
You installed HTC sync in your PC right? If not, first download and install HTC Sync (from here www(dot)htc(dot)com/sea/help/htc-desire-s/#download), you need the drivers from HTC sync, so your pc can recognize your phone.
Make sure you rebooted to bootloader. Then enter:
- fastboot oem lock >>> this is to "relocked" your phone so you can proceed to installation of the RUU.
First and foremost, is your phone branded? If yes, then choose the right RUU for you. If no, you can use the unbranded RUU. Or you can search the forum for your specific region, I think Europe RUU is ok. "Region" is your area, where you live and use your phone. Im from south east asia, so i used asia RUU. Also take note of Post #5 of the first guide, he has summarized everything and i believe he's in the same region as you. Read through everything before starting.

You shouldn't have bought a premium account, there's tonnes of mirrors.
Use the HTCDev website to get a new unlock token.

Based on your bootloader version, I don't think you can, but I might be wrong.
What Windows Phone version are you running?
As of yet, there's no way to flash an RUU version 2.00.401.03 on a phone that has a greater version installed (if you've installed any updates, you'll have a greater version).
IF you could flash, you would first need to debrand your phone first (search for ACDU fix for that), since the RUUs that have been released are straight from HTC, with no carrier modifications and they would fail to flash on a branded phone.

From what I've read as far as flashing goes, the operation is a no-go because the OS version is too high and it would cause the flashing progress to stop at the error message "Image version less than..". Do not attempt it since you'll be left with a brick.

Hmm, I guess whatever that nbh flashes has been updated.
I can't understand why they decided to have that check in place... if I flash a stock RUU, it shouldn't matter what was previously running on the device, it should flash everything back to stock. Why do they make this so user un-friendly?

May be you all have any ideas how to fix this problem.I have been trying for the last 3 days without getting anywhere.
Many thanks for you help.

Is your phone bootloader unlocked? If yes, just follow this LINK, follow those steps, and you'll be okay!
Have a good day.
bootloader locked
I had the bootloader unlocked b4 I tried using advance recovery to flash a stock rom but failed many times. So I decided to lock it to run a proper RUU but since I do not have a phone version number I had used cidnum and modelid numbers but that failed as well.
I dont know what to do now any more?
