[Q] hboot 1.23 & s-on problem

Hi,
I have sensation with hboot 1.23 s-on, unlocked with official htcdev and custom rom installed.
I can't flash any RUU, even it's original orange UK RUU, I can't s-off with revolutionary because max hboot version is 1.18 and can't unlock network!!
any ideas?
pls help...

Flash previous Firmware, see if work .

Same problem here but I am stuck on 1.20. No firmware can be flashed, neither through RUU or PG58IMG.zip. RUU flashing ends with message security failed, update failed. PG58IMG.zip simply returns to menu after parsing. Fastboot returns with "remote, not allowed".
Please help !

When I tried an ICS rom, I flashed the 1.20 hboot and firmware. All I had to do to get rid of 1.20 hboot was flash the PG58IMG.zip of the eng hboot.

If you are s-on you can't flash anything. You have to wait until revolutionary updates to 1.23

How did you guys end up with S-On?
Were you S-On before flashing hboot 1.23 or you just flashed an old official RUU over 1.23?

Revolutionary won't S-off for 1.23 in near future...:-/

Pure stupidity for me. I usually pay more attention to what's going on. When I flashed firmware that contained HBOOT 1.20 it did flash 1.20 but got stuck in bootloader mode and did not update radio.
I followed with attempt to downgrade to 1.17 and restore S-On so I could repeat revolutionary. When it simply returned to the menu w/o any error (but in fact stayed on 1.20) I did writesecureflag 3.
So the best I did was unlock bootloader through HTCDEV. I am still however stuck at 1.20, old radio and while I can flash roms, I cannot flash radio or hboot or RUU. normally I would just wait it out but wi-fi does not work in new roms for me, prob because of old radio.

I have the same problem, and there are many people have the same problem. Hope revolutionary would support hboot 1.23. But previous revolutionary s-off the bootloader when phone is on.

Well what's done is done... Wait for ICS official RUU... Probably it will flash...
Atleast thug can flash a Rom...
For wifi issue, i suggest you reset the router...I have doubts that will solve your issue..

Seems to be the only solution at this point. Based on revolutions history, how long would you say that might be?

HBOOT 1.23.000 S-ON / unlock or relock ( secureflag 3) without firmware
now i have HyperSensation_v1.8_R
4ext recovery touch
Does anyone know how to upgrade or downgrade hboot?

This guide will help

Use adb as alternative to pg58img to flash recovery as per the guide.
Flashing the boot.img part of the ruu then gives you downgraded bootloader enabling you to s-off.

stock rom fail

Hi,
I'm trying to go to the stock rom because I have to return my phone because I have battery problems and dust behind my screen.
But when I try to flash a stock rom it doesn't work. It says that I using the wrong image update.
Current image is 1.11.401.110 and I want to go to the lastest stock rom 3.32.401.105
What do I have to do?
Thanks

What was the original CID ? What CID do you now have ?
1.11.401....... wow that seems really old.
x.xx.401.... will need CID "HTC__001" or SuperCID "11111111".
What exactly does it say when you run the RUU ? Does it connect OK to the Sensation, does it say what the existing version is on the phone ?

I at the moment I have SuperCID so '11111111'.
My sensation was connected correctly to the pc
And do you need my Hboot version or my firmware?

OK I don't understand where 1.11.401.110.... figures in the situation. If I understand correctly that is a custom ROM based off a different platform with Sense 4.0. Probably wrong though..
Are you fully S-OFF (clutching at straws here). Assuming you are you should be able to install an RUU easily. I recently went from 3.32.161.... to 3.32.401.. then back to 1.27.161... with no issues at all.
I'm sure someone more able than me can help you here.

ok you are SOFF seeing that you have revolutionary HBOOT ..
so when returning stock ...its better to flash the correct stock...which can be found using CID
but as you have supercid now ...you need to know your original cid or the carrier/country the phone is linked to ..for finding the proper stock RUU
this guide helps you in fiding the proper stock RUU and it has flashing instructions too

Hi,
I followed the link and tried to get my CID but I only get 11111111 so i don't know what I have to download now

Install "cid getter" from the market.
AFAIK the entry for "ro.cid" should tell you your original CID.
e.g. It says VODAP001 for me while "fastboot getvar cid" gives "11111111".

Hi, I've got the same problem as trane116 (HBOOT 1.29 / S-ON / HTC-DEV unlocked), I just install 4EXT on my HTC Sensation XE then flash the AOKP Jelly Bean rom (22 Nv realase). I'm still S-ON but I'd like to come back to a stock version of my phone.
I extract the rom.zip file from the RUU, rename it in PG58IMG.zip then put it on my SD then start in the bootloader.
I've got a loading bar (top-right corner), but when it is full nothing more happens.
What can I do to go back to stock please ?

[Q] Flash RUU.zip S3 JB Europe

I have an One S S3, cid HTC_032, and i found an JB RUU (ville c2) in zip format for my CID but i cant flash it. I tried by command, with fastboot flash, but i get an Signature verification error:
sending 'zip' (622380 KB)... OKAY
writing 'zip'... INFOsignature checking...
FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
I used then an RUU update tool to flash the zip file (ARUWizard), but the same error. Even tried the One_S_All-In-One_Kit_v3.4 tool to flash RUU zip, but no luck.
RUU is from HERE
UNLOCKED
VILLEC2 PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT 2.11.0000
RADIO 16.09.20.11.M2
Android 4.0.4
What i don wrong?

Please help

Just use an RUU, don't flash a zip. Those zips are most of the time corrupt.
You can find one here:
http://androidfiles.org/ruu/

Its a RUU but in a .zip format not an .exe, like i said in the first post. if i had an exe with JB i would use that. The ARUWizard do just that, works like you have am exe RUU. The problem is with the errors.

There was the first place i looked. There are only ICS RUU not JB RUU. I dont know why this RUU does not work, becouse is for my CID. I cant change my CID becouse of the bootloader i have, i cant S-OFF my phone, my RUU does not work.. what a day
Finaly i flashed a ROM with JB to feel the 4.1.1 experience, but i wanted an official RUU.
Maybe they will release an .exe RUU for CID HTC_032

Why do you want an official RUU? There are many custom ROMs which serve the same purpose, just get a really stock one like TrickDroid or zenROM+

[Q] How to choose RUU?

Hi guys!
I have some problem with HTC Sensation. It boots only till HTC logo. And nothing more! On this device isn't OS.
Some guys said that I need to install RUU exe file through computer. I did it but received error 130 (need other version of RUU, I think).
So can you recommend something?
S-ON, hboot 1.18.000, radio 10.14.9035.02_02
Thank you!

What exactly do you mean by "On this device isn't OS".Do you mean you haven't install some custom OS on your device or it has no OS at all.If you have erase the OS the bootloop is something natural.
I did a google search for your radio version and according to this I found answers only on some german forums.So your cid (as long as you are s-on) should be possibly a German or a European one.
You can download the latest Europe version from here and give it a try.
You can find your cid number using fastboot.Just get into fastboot mode of your hboot and give the command fastboot getvar cid.
If your bootloader is HTCDEV unlocked give the commands:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
After that your hboot should say Relocked instead of Unlocked.Then install the RUU.
You could also give it S-OFF using this guide (Does not require HTCDEV unlock method):
[GUIDE] Juopunutbear S-OFF NO HTCDEV UNLOCK | ROOT (1.2x HBOOTS)

If you are S-ON you can use a RUU only with hboot 1.18 in your case

Why exactly he should use an RUU with hboot 1.18?!
I know that the version of hboot can be upgraded normally but cannot be downgraded as long as you are S-ON.If you are S-OFF you can downgrade everything.Also if you want to install an older RUU and you are S-ON you have to use a gold card and you patch the version of the misc partition to an equal or lower one for the RUU you are going to use.
