[Q] Pyramid 1.18.0000 *UNLOCKED*/Revolutionary as "HBoot.img" ???

Hi all,
could someone please upload an 1.18.0000 unlocked HBoot.img for the Sensation??? I and much others have the problem that after update 1.45.401.2 and run the Revolutionary.zip, the Revolution-applikation lose the conection to the phone and then the Sensation writes revolutionary HBOOT 1.17.1111 and not 1.18.0000. It wold be very nice if someone can help. Thanks a lot.
PS: Command to get the hboot
adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p12 of=/sdcard/hboot.img

what you are saying is very normal. Your phone is S-offed and it shows "revolutionary" at hboot.
The hboot number changes which is normal. If you want stock hboot then you have to flash the RUU exe

Everyone run the latest OTA or RUU and start latest Revolutionary have then HBOOT 1.17.1111 ????

yes

yes, if you were on the 1.35.xxx.x, then your hboot will be something like 1.17.1111

And if you are on the 1.45.xxx.x ??? Which Hboot version have you after running latest revolutionary on stock 1.45.xxx.x with stock HBOOT 1.18.0000???

Why are you worrying so much about the hboot number as long as you are s off then your fine. I had that .18 hboot before I did the s-off procedure and after it changed to that .17 hboot.

Like others have said, this is normal. Besides, the HBOOT image is not going to change whether it is S-OFF or not. At least not the way that Revolutionary sets it. As long as it says S-OFF, you are fine. If you really want the .18 bootloader, run Revolutionary first, then run the RUU. It will change the bootloader to the new version, but you will still be S-OFF. Keep in mind that you will have to replace the stock recovery with a custom recovery and re-root if you want to.

guess while we are at it, i would like an ENG 1.18.0000 HBOOT just to have it!

I am a little scared about that: (Thats not my picture but the error looks like it... but i root it from 1.45.xxx.x)

I too !

Listen...
Revolutionary, at the moment, WILL say it's lost connection. Just run it again. After 3 times of 'losing connection' it'll actually say it's done and you'll be S-OFF
You DO NOT NEED to have HBOOT 1.18.0000 to be S-OFF - it's completely irrelevant

[Q] OTA update when rooted

Hi,
So I have my desire s rooted still running stock ROM. I keep getting notifications of OTA updates but they always fail to install.
Is there I way for me to install these updates?

If you're rooted then you're s-off'd then I recommend that you stay away from OTA's if you want better software go for a custom rom.

You can fallback to S-ON, and then OTA update then S-OFF and Root again.
You can follow my diagram below in order to fallback to S-ON.

try this -> link

I don't suggest doing an OTA update it only screws the Stock ROM, I did mine and it had Hell Battery Drain.. so I decided to S-OFF and ROOT mine

When you are S-OFF and install other ROM, you can't install an official ROM via OTA.
If the ROM installed is OTA updateable, you can download it from: Rom Manager app from Market.

I've just a question about the passage from the state SHIP S-OFF 6.98.1002 to SHIP S-ON 0.98.000x: since it is necessary to use RUU, does the phone get wiped? What if I use Linux?

In this case you can download RUU in ZIP format, rename it to PG88IMG.zip, copy to SD card and reboot your phone to bootloader to flash.
You can find RUU in zip format here:
http://goo-inside.me/ruu/saga/full
BTW you have to switch your hboot to ENG S-OFF 0.98.2000 first.
(see my diagram above)

I am a bit puzzled... So is it possible to s-on again (to ota update ofcourse) without full wipe?? I truely hate backup/restore in gigabyte era...

According to my diagram above, you will fallback to s-on by executing RUU file, and this will do full wipe ofcourse.
I'm not sure if we can flash S-ON hboot over hboot ENG S-OFF 0.98.2000 by fastboot or adb command or not.

Hi. Thanks for the answer. All pretty much clear now...

Hi,
Sorry to hijack this thread but I'm not sure what (if anything) I would need to do to get this official ROM and ideally rooted when available.
I am currently S-Off via XTC Clip and rooted, my H-Boot details are: 0.98.002.
From previous experience I cannot do an OTA update but in any event need root.
Sorry to be stupid but any ideas what I would need to do when a rooted version of the update becomes available.
Many thanks,
Damian

[Q] hang up at HTC sreen ,device S-on, HELP !!!

My phone was hang up at HTC screen ,
in Hboot, it show S-On,
tried to run the RUU (2.31.720.2, same as the current rom version with the device) and PG88IMG.zip flashing.
Both stuck at Bootloader flashing,
any idea ??
appreciated for help ...

You've posted in wrong section. I requested this post to be moved in general or q&a section.
However, I don't think RUU 2.31.720.2 exists for Desire S.
Are you sure it is named "RUU_Saga_xxx... ?", and that you have a Desire S ? (Not Desire, Desire HD, Desire Z...)
Could you post what first lines your bootloader is showing ?
from "SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL" to a date ?
Do you bought your phone with a carrier contract or bought it unbranded ?
You should download either this :
http://www.filefactory.com/file/cfd...22U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_219480_signed.exe -> 2.10.401.5 (Stock Desire S Sense 3 rom)
or this :
http://www.filefactory.com/file/cfd...5AU_3805.06.02.03_M_release_199410_signed.exe -> 1.47.401.4 (Stock WWE HTC Sense 2.1 ROM).
If you have a branded phone, these RUUs may don't work (CID error). Try and report back.

Hi Floatshow,
This unit is bought without any contract,
seach from google, it said this unit is from India.
it ready come with 2.31.720.2, refer below print screen:

and below is the screen that hang up at bootloader.
at RUU mode
at SD image update mode

you can try to s-off
http://revolutionary.io/
so you can flash a recovery and repair your phone without problems
(if you flash a ruu you will lose the new hboot and the recovery

Try pouring water on your phone. Also I heard a rumor that slowly waving a magnet around your computers hard drive 27 times, can fix any problem.

the 1.47 & 2.10 is failed.
CID error

That's weird... I don't know India versions.
So the India RUU failed when flashing Bootloader ? in fastboot ?
Can you boot into Android ?
Do you have custom recovery installed or stock one ?
In any case, just boot into recovery, and Wipe Data/factory reset.
Maybe you will be able to boot into android again.

Yup, will just hang up at bootloader flashing.
& now can't boot into Android OS.
The recovery is stock version,
have any method to flashing the recovery to custom recovery ?
tried Revolutionary, but this method need to run under charging mode, it seem like didn't working while the phone is hang in HTC screen.
any idea ?

Well you can try Wipe data/factory reset from stock recovery. As ruu didn't flashed system, data or anything, maybe android will boot...
And you can't use Revolutionary.
If factory reset doesn't work, your really last chance is to use xtc clip.
Or send it back for warranty purposes. Because with hboot-0.98, s-on, and unworking ruu, i don't think there's much choices.
So : xtc clip or warranty.
Sent from my Desire S with Virtuous Affinity

You should have a GoldCard for you to RUU to any version.
If your hboot is still the old S-ON, here is no way for you to flash a custom recovery.
You really won't be able to use revolutionary on your phone on that state.
In this case, your option is to upgrade the hboot (GoldCard might be needed) then unlock it then flash custom recovery. Use search for those.methods.
Hint! My second guide.
P.S
Before doing anything, you should learn and identify where you need to place your posts first.

noob CWD mistake

Ok, I need a little help. I wanted to flash Android Revolution HD 6.0.1(ICS 4.0.3) on my HTC Sensation (T-mobile USA). I was using this tutorial:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300. After I got S-Off to work I began to flash CWD. I made the mistake of copying the wrong PG58IMG.zip file over. Instead of CWD it was the updated ICS firmware. Now I'm stuck with HBOOT 1.23.0000, no CWD, no root. Where should I go from here? Should I try to fix the HBOOT or try to flash CWM another way. Do I need to use ADB? Here is a pic of what I'm working with.

Hi,
You could try to get hboot 1.17 HERE back on your phone.
Then try to finish the s-off process.

so how would I get HBOOT 1.17.0000 back on my phone since I get an error every time I try to flash it through a PG58IMG.zip file? Any links to tutorials I missed?

Hi,
Place the 1.17 PG58IMG.zip on the root of your sd card using a card reader.
Make sure you do a MD5 checksum of the zip(google it)
Power down the phone,or remove the battery.
Power on holding down volume - and power button.
Let the update go through.
When it finishes,go back in to ROM and delete the PG58IMG.zip.
If you cannot get into ROM,remove the card and use card reader in PC.
You should then be able to carry on "Revolutionary".

Ooo you should be s-off still even after your did IMG.zip
if you completed the s-off before the you flashed the ICS then your s-off should still be there it wont show but its there, if you can try then IMG.zip that has the hboot 1.17

I did that. I'm not that much a noob. That is the problem I was asking in the first place. I cannot update that way. It says "Update Fail" on the screen. Also, the phone is S-OFF, didn't even flash the rom yet. Thanks for your help so far.

Ok I see the picture cause its saying incorrect phone model there is a pdimg.zip that will put your cid to 11111 once that done you should be able to.use and pdimg.zip

Ok, so where would I find that?

Ok, I had to use HTC dev tools to unlock bootloader, then use adb tools to ensure cid was 11111111. Then flashed bootloader back to 1.17.0000. Thanks for the guidance. Was more rewarding to figure somethings out instead of being guided through every step.

It is not mentioned in the firmware topic, but it seems important to do SuperCID before flashing the new firmware in case of problems. I've seen this problem elsewhere on this forum.
But it's nice to know that there is still a solution even if you do not have SuperCID.

Ok you have made a very common mistake (that I have made once too, but then there was no ICS RUU, so I was forced to do some mumbo-jumbo) - not lowering your version, which is a must-have in the downgrade process
Anyway you have now much easier path now:
1) Run the ICS RUU
2) unlock the bootloader via htc-dev
3) flash a custom recovery
4) root it manually or with the AIO tool (temp root will not work)
5) lower your main version using the misc_version binary
6) relock the bootloader
7) run the RUU
8) disable the update check in the Settings, otherwise if upgraded the SC will spot the relocked bootloader
Good luck

I am afraid you are out of options. There is no way to lower your version without root.
If you are lucky and still have the custom recovery you can use the misc_version there (it has root). Otherwise you cannot flash anything with this version, only the ICS RUU. You cannot use Revolutionary again when your OS does not boot
EDIT: as I said I have made the same mistake and now my hardware buttons are almost broken and I cannot take it to a repair due to my Unlocked bootloader. But when you downgrade to 1.28.x or 1.47.x there is no "RELOCKED" flag shown in the booltoader screen. So if you keep the older version and do not update there is a chance that the SC will not check it.

Well as far as I remember the ICS RUU disclaimer says that it drops the warranty on the software side. If you have a hardware problem it should be acknowledged and repaired. But you have to recheck that.

What are you talking about? He can just use tacoroot. Either way, he was S-OFF, so he can just S-OFF again, change miscversion, and then roll back to S-ON.
