you cant do it that way
check the instruction in http://unlimited.io/hboot-downloads/ (use the jb_hboot.zip for ICS from the same link)
for flashing the jb hboot properly
an once done with those instructions
come back to bootloader using
fastboot reboot-bootloader

I get this message, "sending hboot ok, writing hboot failed remote:not allowed"

just out of curiosity...why do you wanna go back to JB H-boot?!

unlocked bootloader ..even if you are SOFF wont let you flash radio
also some other stuff(might not be important for a normal user but ...engineering hboot(juopunutbear/revolutionary) gives much more access)

where i can find original htc hboot 1.17.0011 s-off

hello
i wanna flash the original htc hboot 1.17.0011 s-off .
where i can find it ?
thanks
do you mean the ENG H-BOOT?

No,ENG S-OFF is 008.You can flash the original hboot 0011 from an official rom via fastboot
Sent from my greatest Sensation 4G running LeeDrOiD
I take it you keep the S-OFF doing that? I'm using the ENG S-OFF but is there really any advantage to it bar a few extra HBOOT commands?
EDIT: The HBOOT from the 1.35.401.1 RUU isn't an IMG file - can it still be flashed?

yes you can rename it as hboot.img and flash it via fastboot..I prefer you guys to use revolutionary,which enabled fastboot and version higher than eng(eng is the same as 1.17.0008)

Download,rename to PG58IMG,put in root of SD,go to bootloader it will ask for update. Say yes to update, You will have 1.17.0011 after the update.

Only reason I used the ENG S-OFF was to get rid of the 'Revolutionary' banner at the top - like it to look OEM
now i have ship HBoot: 1.17.0011 s-off
i will try now the performance on the phone
Yeah, flashed it on mine and still S-OFF
Please share the file. Thank you.

1. Extract ZIP file
2. Flash via fastboot using command:
fastboot flash hboot hboot.img
3. The run:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
4. Then run:
fastboot erase cache
5. Turn phone off and then back on again

Why do you need it ? Did you have S-OFFed your Sensation?
Do you know how flash a PG85IMG.ZIP into the NAND in your Sensation?
I have a image file which included hboot ver 1.17.0011 PVT SHIP S-OFF attached below.
Are you sure you need it?
It maybe brick your phone, the risks and responsibilities all are yours when you flash your phone! This HBOOT only tested on my HTC Sensation!
There has only been one eng hboot leaked and it's .0008
Flash a stock hboot onto a phone that is radio S-OFF and it will say SHIP S-OFF. Ship is stock and S-OFF, when ENG is not written, means radio S-OFF.
On previous HTC phones you could have ENG S-OFF without radio S-OFF, and the hboot would fool the radio into thinking that the phone was S-OFF even though it wasn't radio S-OFF. It's unlikely that would work with the Sensation unless the eng hboot was signed, and the one that has leaked isn't.
Revolutionary is a special kind of hboot. It still says SHIP in the bootloader but it's custom and has some extra fastboot commands (like 'fastboot flash'), so in many ways it acts like an eng hboot. So if you run Revolutionary, you get radio S-OFF and a custom hboot. Your phone will still be S-OFF after running a RUU but you'll overwrite the Revolutionary custom hboot with a stock one.

[Q] PG58IMG.zip can't be installed

My hboot version is 1.23, s-on. My phone can't install PG58IMG.zip, bootloader always shows no image or wrong image, i tried different zip file but non of them works. I know this has a close relationship with s on. But what can i do? I would appriciate if you could give me some advice.
Problem is my phone can't boot into system,

what did you use to unlock bootloader?

why did you flash the IMG.zip?
if you unlocked it then go to fastboot and make your CID 11111
and hopefully that will get you back on where you wanted to do?
cant give much help unless you give some details on what was your state of phoen before and what you wanted to do with it

Sorry to reply so late.
Previously, my phone was eng s-off and got super cid.
After i flash ICS firmware, bootloader was then locked.
After that i did some stupid things, the bootloader turned into "locked", "security warning" and s-on. I succeeded to unlock bootloader by htcdev and get rid of "security warning", at that time i can boot into recovery normally and wipe or flash roms. But it just can't boot into system. I tried fastboot commands to flash but failed just because "it is not allowed in the remote devices".
i tried PG58IMG files but the bootloader shows no image or wrong image.
Can you give me some advice? Thank you very much

My phone had been rooted and end s-off before things happened.
i flash IMG.zip to try to flash a rom( Somebody post that ICS rom can be flash by IMG.zip) or fix the bootloader problem. It's almost the only way to flash a rom for me
I checked the cid and it is still 11111111(Got super cid before) although bootloader is s-on.
Now the state of the bootloader is
1, unlocked
2,s-on
3,cid is 11111111
4,can boot into recovery
5,can't install PG58IMG.zip
6,fastboot command can't write anyting
7,if flash some rom, phone will be stuck at the splash screen which seems splash partition is writable
Thank you!

i don't know how to do either, but during solving my problem, i found something may be useful. If you want to unlock bootloader you can try htcdev. This can't s-off but just unlock bootloader.
And since your hboot is 1.20, you can try the zip file attached by this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20681060&postcount=22.
Because my hboot is 1.23 and isn't supported according to the above link, i didn't know whether it will help or not. You can take it into consideration
Hope you can solve your problem
ok find hboot 1.17 PD58IMG.zip, your truly not s-on, format your sdcard, then place the img in sdcard, and boot into bootloader, and you should be able run fastboot commands, you should still have custom recovery right?

I format the sdcard in fat32 format and place img that revert to hboot 1.17 in sdcard. Reboot into bootloader, but it shows "no image or wrong image".
I also try fastboot command but i don't know the command format. Would you give me an example please? Just a fastboot command to install img no matter s-on or s-off. Such as "fastboot flash hboot hboot.img".
My device is now s-on.

[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.

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.

And that brings us to my current problem, I cant seem to install cwm I put the PG58IMG File on the sd card an booted into hboot but The file loads up and then fails telling me "Model Id Incorrect update fail press power to reboot." Also after using juopunutbear. To s-off my phone the bootloader. Now says Locked instead. Of unlocked is this normal?

Hi,

Flash 4 EXT
The "Locked" just restricts the fastboot commands available to you.
If this is a problem ,look HERE

I was unable to flash the hboot i would just get an error. I fixed my problem about 30 seconds ago by supercid the phone which allowed me to flash Juopunutbear Hboot and then recovery took me 8 hours to figure it out but i was determined.

[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.
