I had to do supercid, which I had not previously done to install the 3.6.x versions of ARHD.
I originally installed the firmware, and booting into my phone saw that the radio had not been installed. I then attempted to install the updated radio directly, but got an error with writing the radio, so I then performed supercid instructions and reflashed the firmware and confirmed that the radio was also updated.

Hi,
If your CID is in the list,then you can flash the new firmware.
Make sure you flash Firmware 3.12.401.2/102 ,if you intend to flash 6.x.x ROM.
HERE is a good guide to follow.
Make sure you do a MD5 checksum of the PG58IMG.zip that you intend to use.

Hello,
my HTC SENSATION has the HBOOT Version 1.27.1100 and I want to download a RUU to restore my HTC device completely. But I can´t find a RUU with this HBOOT version.
I only have to download the right RUU and install it on my HTC device to restore it completely, right?

Hey malybru can you flash this file with the stock recovery? Also this only changes the Hboot version correct?

Hi,
It's a PG58IMG.zip .
So, it's just placed on the sd card.
Recovery is not involved.
Yes,it will only change the hboot.

Man I had a duh money, I realized after I posted that that that file will flash automatically when you boot to Hboot, as that is the file name that Hboot looks for. But still doesn't Hboot use the recovery to flash the file?

Hi,
I knew you knew that.
I just posted for general information.
I think it flashes in bootloader,before recovery starts.

Ok this will be my last post here cause I don't want to hyjack this thread.
This has brought a question to mind and I will have to see if I can find the answer some how. The question is what does Hboot use to flash the PG58IMG.zip. I personally have always thought it used recovery to flash the file.

It uses the bootloader to flash the file. If you put it on your sd card and reboot into bootloader (volume down button + power button) you will be asked to update. Choose yes using the volume buttons and the file will be flashed, easy as that

When you install a rom by a RUU, it will also flash the stock Hboot version. Take a look at the shipped roms thread.

Hboot 1.27 is clearly ICS.
Download official RUU from here (RUU_PYRAMID_ICS_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.5_Radio_11.69.3504.00U_11.22.3504.07_M_release_246089_signed)
This is the latest official ICS RUU for unbranded Europe Sensation.
If your device is branded or your region is not Europe then search for the appropriare RUU.
Run the exe from pc with phone usb plugged. It will restore your phone as "out of the box".
Hope it helped.
Man I really don't understand any of this lol......... I'm just gonna ask a few questions and you guys can either respond or not....
1) I am on stock ICS, rooted, with HTC Dev Unlocked and using Clockwork. If I wanted to un-root, remove clockwork and re-lock the Hboot... How would that go exactly? 1.27.0000 etc...
2) I don't understand why getting S-Off is so difficult. If one would simply downgrade from ICS to GB, wouldn't that change the Hboot version to a lower one, and then you would be able to use the Revolutionary way? Or is that not possible to do? Or does the downgrade not affect the Hboot?
3) Which Custom ROM am I able to flash at the moment? Any, based on ICS?

Hi,
1. I think that you can just run the RUU in the post above yours.(If your phone is European)
2.Downgrading is not possible on hboot 1.27.000
HTC have locked you out of this possibility.
3.As you say.Any 3.32. based ICS ROM.

It can be done only by running corresponding RUU which can be found based on your firmware(in your case it is 3.32) and cid (to get cid "fastboot getvar cid")...if you are unbranded i.e. cid is HTC__001..then you can run the above mentioned ruu...or else you should get the appropriate one...if you can't find it then post your cid along with radio..we can find the appropriate one for you
2) I don't understand why getting S-Off is so difficult. If one would simply downgrade from ICS to GB, wouldn't that change the Hboot version to a lower one, and then you would be able to use the Revolutionary way? Or is that not possible to do? Or does the downgrade not affect the Hboot?

If you are S-ON you can't downgrade...not by running a RUU or by flashing firmware directly...that's why people use revolutionary first to get soff and then they'll flash unlocked firmware to update the hboot and all...
It you are SOFF you can literally do anything ..upgrade, downgrade..its your choice..
3 ) Which Custom ROM am I able to flash at the moment? Any, based on ICS?

As you are unlocked via HTC dev..if you update your recovery with 4EXT latest one which has smartflash mode ON(exclusive SON flash)..you could have any ROM

When you have the RUU, run it without a device first. When the first window of the RUU opens, drag it to the side of your screen, open Explorer and search your windows drive for "rom.zip". When you find it copy it to another location and close the RUU window.
Open rom.zip archive and you will find a file called "android-info.txt" open it and see if your cid is listed there. If it is present you can flash this RUU safely.
Yep, it's in there. Thank you guys!

Thanks for your help, but it's not there. Is there any way to restore DS without this RUU? It's bootloader unlocked, rooted, has the custom recovery. unfortunately the "misc version" was not uploaded in adb mode, thus I cannot change the main version, to be able to downgrade it. But since the main version is "too high" (2.10.161.5) and there is no adb mode and I dont have the original RUU there is nothing to do. Is it possible somehow to change the main version in fastboot???? I think this would be the only chance without the the ruu.

Guess you forgot to fastboot flash boot boot.img
Also, why would you need a RUU anyway? You can still enter recovery, can't you? Heck, of course you can: even if you couldn't you could always fastboot flash recovery recovery.img a working one.
I fail to see why a RUU would be necessary here.

Right now there is clockwork 5.0.2.0 on it, we tried to install custom roms, which seemed to be done, but the phone stops at HTC logo after flashing. I guess I could flash back the original recovery (actually I only have one from RUU 1.32.161.1), but how would it solve my problem? How about the other image files, like system, hboot etc?

Hi there!
i have a htc one s phone, originally with a "HTC__K18" cid which i've changed to "HTC__001".
i've read a lot about debranding it, switching its rom to a european one and get OTAs, and i understand that i can only switch to Super-CID in order to get the RUU to work. however - i won't be able to install the JB OTA.
my question is - can i install the RUU with Super-CID, then change it back to "HTC__001" and install the OTA?
thanks,
Yossi

my mid is PJ4010000.
I don't know if it's the right RUU for my device - i don't know which is the right one, since i've changed the cid and my old cid doesn't have any RUU available.
i've locked, rooted, changed cid and then relocked the device, so there's should be no problem with that.
should i do something with the mid? is it safe to change it?

oke your mid is fine for the ruu.
this cannot be changed yet (as far as i know)
and what is your current hboot version?
if your still on 2.xx you can also try ro run a older ruu and then do the ota (do not do it on supercid!!)
remember an ruu with a older hboot than your original cannot be flashed (downgrade) if your not s-off
as usaff22 said have you tried downloading another source of the ruu.
have you restored the stock recovery before relocking and running the ruu?
if you are not s-off you have to restore the stock recovery before running the ruu.
tried it without a inserted simcard?
tried the ruu with phone in fastboot usb mode? (heard of people geting error on 1st try but when starting the ruu again it went tru the whole process).
Thanks for your reply!
I'll try everything and let you know if it went fine.
Do you have another source for the OTA?

A gold card should work fine pal I will post back when I am home a link to a goldcard making website. just remember the smaller the sdcard the better in my opinion (size in gigabyte) , you will need to flash a "upgrade" to the phone so make sure its a software upgrade but not a Hboot upgrade (try get a WWE Rom ) and you will need to relock your bootloader again before you can run the ruu. if you find one that needs to be Downgraded just say and I will try to help you downgrade your misc partition

thanks mate ... so umm ..do i have to do anything to runn the ruu?
i mean, do i just boot up the phone with the gold card and run the ruu on my pc .... problem is if i relock the bootloader the custome rom i have currently loaded will cause the phone not to boot up, only to fastboot.
so i guess i have to find a zip version and do it via PG58IMG?
but if i do it that way do i have to flash a firmware that supports that rom first?? :/
i really think i'm screwed unless i can get s-off
is there any manual way to get s-off on a hboot 1.18.000 device via adb ...ie not using these revolution or the wire trick ...just pure adb ?

Hi,
In order to s-off you need Revolutionary for 1.18 and wire trick for 1.2x
Your problem is you unlocked via HTC DEV.

With the goldcard in the phone and your bootloader locked connect to the pc in fastboot mode and run the ruu iy should run without issue. Just make sure its a gingerbread rom your trying to flash and not a ics one and you shouldn't have any firmware issues

thanks guys ... ahh so the rru will run even if i'm in fastboot?
will try relocking and runnng.
are you guys sure a goldcard works on a sensation? have you done it yourself on a s-on device? ive read alot of comments on sites re it not working.
i'm in new zealand, cid on phone is VODAP022
the other problem is the sw version number is quite high .. 1.52.720.3 ...and having a hard time finding a GB rom with a higher version, let alone WWE

you have to be in fastboot mode
also try this ruu.exe
http://hotfile.com/dl/147926429/b26...0.14.9035.01_M_release_207653_signed.exe.html
but i doubt if it will work because your firmware is higher and on S-ON
hmm well tried creating a mmc0 based goldcard, relocked bootloader ...popped in goldcard and booted to fastboot
tried flashing stock RUU-Pyramid-ICS-hTC-Europe-3.33.401.53-Radio-11.76A.3504.00U-11.24A.3504.31-M-release-280871-signed
and it goes through upuntil updating signature ...... ERROR[131]:customer ID ERROR ...
so i guess that goldcard didn't work...i'll try making another based on mmc1 .... does any one know for sure which one it should be?
feel like i'm getting closer ....new aim is just to get back to stock ...any stock version ...

other way is to change the cid to the european unbranded one and install that ruu again
it might work
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
fastboot getvar cid (to check if cid has changed)

I'm pretty confident it will work, as long as its an update. It won't downgrade unless you have a misc partition downgrade done. If mmc1 fails then an upgrade will be needed to get ics firmware and then s-off via jupuntobear.

in order to s-off does my recovery need to be stock?

i think it is unecessary but you must have stock rom
ok i've having issues editing android-info.txt of any zip i extract or download.
can anyone with a stock ics zip please add VODAP022cidnum: and upload it somewhere?
i figure if i can get that, i should be fine as my hboot is 1.18.000 and my sw is 1.52.720.3 .... so any ics zip with my cid in it should work ....

do not extract the android-info.txt
just open it from the zip with notepad
then edit and save
edit:have you tried these ruu.exe?
