Guys i really need your help.
My Phone:
HTC Sensation 4G T-Mobile USA
Was running ICS and was rooted
This is what comes up in HBoot:
*** UNLOCKED ***
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.27.0000
Long story short:
I rooted my phone being S-ON
then i tried doing S-OFF using Juopunutbear method
and now the phone doesnt start and goes on loop
tried doin recovery but nothing works on the boot thingy !
Here is the long story if you want to know all the details:
I unlocked the Bootloader of my Sensation using the HTC dev site.
Then I rooted my phone using this method(keeping S-ON):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1632553
After that i used my rooted phone for a while till i decided to S-OFF using this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617
After tht I ran Juopunutbear S-OFF(Step 6) my device restarted and went on the Juopunutbear loop and it stays there(waited fr a long time).
what i really think is that i messed up and kinda skipped step 2(Restore to Stock 3.32 Rooted ROM) and 3(Flash boot.img from Stock 3.32 Rooted ROM in Fastboot) of the guide.
then i pulled out my battery and tried starting it again but still it keeps on showin the Juopunutbear(with a HD) loop type thingy.
then i tried backing up from boot but whatever i press doesnt work and the device just restarts
i tried recovery and everything else but no use, it just restarts
is it possible to start from scratch ?
Can u Please Please help me out !
I really need this phone to get up and start working with everything rooted and S-OFF.
thanks alot in advance

for new HBOOTS (1.27 ) juopunutbear is the only method
now either you can try SOFF using the auggie2k guide
or
if you want to flash custom roms with S-ON
follow this guide

see the soff process takes you to that screen
and you need to do wire trick there ...
if you got unsuccessful in wire trick ...you need to revert back to normal working state (i.e. trouble shoot point 4 i've mentioned)
what you did is ran controlbear until half ...and without reverting back to normal ..you tried to do other stuff which will obviously wont work
next stipe follow the steps

deamon not running ..means adb failed to detect your phone
that is probably you didnt uninstalled HTC-sync or you are using usb hub, or usb 3.0 port
check the prerequisites in the soff guide present in my link ..you need to meet all of them
also check trouble shoot point 3 ...it has wire trick tips and solutions to different problems that might arise due to wire trick

Ok i have been going over every inch of the forums and all over the internet and i really run out of ideas.
i have a HTC Desire S on 2.3.5 with HBoot 2.00.0002, ive used HTCdev to unlock the bootloader and used superoneclick to root my phone (sort of) but my phone is stuck with S-ON.
i have tried everything i have found but the bootloader is stuck on the stock one, i have Rom Manager on my phone and ive tried the 4EXT but because of the phone being stuck on S-ON when it goes to the recovery part it errors out and i have to jack the battery out to get it to restart.....
HELP please :3
First your rom is rooted but system is not. You can install custom recovery , but use fastboot to flash it and all will works fine. For this problem when you go recovery you don't need to pull battery never pull it for this phone. Press volume up+volume down and then press power button and keep all pressed and phone will reboot normal

@RageReaper
Not really sure whats going on, cause you are confused and should do MORE reading.
Root is not the same as s-off, so look into that.
You unlocked your bootloader using HTCdev, thus you are still s-on and stock hboot but now can root your phone, have a custom recovery and flash roms. - NORMAL!!!!
Try flash the recovery in fastboot.
Just to be sure your hboot does say UNLOCKED at the top right?
yes it says its UNLOCKED but im trying to S-off my phone so i can make a copy of my OS so if something goes wrong i can always go back to it
so whats the best way to S-off my desire s?, Thank you in advance and to the people that will help
@RageReaper
You can do that once you install a custom recovery. Nandroid backup..
Ive managed to root my older android phones but this is really starting to bug me I can't get nandroid to work because after I used superoneclick I installed Rom manager to make a back up and it did the clockwork mod but the recovery part of my hboot errors out this is why I'm asking for help because I think I dropped the ball on this one
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
As said before in post 2+3, use fastboot to flash recovery.
Install clockworkmod, see here under section 1, step 2.

Hope someone can point me in the right direction.
Thank you
It doesn't matter if the guides are talking can't s-off phone's and different hboot's, they will work still.
Do the following,
-Turn off fastboot menu/settings/power/
fastboot (on the phone)
-Turn on USB debugging menu/Settings/
Applications/Development/ USB debugging (on
the phone)
Okay, get into fastboot, boot into your hboot (switch phone off and the
press power+vol down)
Plug your phone in,
Now your phone is plugged in and in hboot, press the power button once, it'll say something like fastboot usb.
Follow the link I gave you now.

yeah i can confirm this works i did it using the same way.
Hi i am kinda new to rooting and stuff like that. But on my SII it was way easier to put into a custom rom.
Now i have this XE and want to root it, and i followed the guide wich use the revolutionary[dot]io/ app and i get a message that i have too new hboot or something ? And one other guide that told me i had to use a isolated wire to root??
So is it any possibility to get this XE rooted now, or am i stuck on this stock rom? Stock rom is kinda bloated aswell, every time i reboot the phone i get this android upgrade in progress and it count all the apps etc. what's up with that ?
so if anyone could _read_ before they point me into a direction i've already seen i'd be happy

flashing roms while SON

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1661631
the wire trick is pretty easy to use, and it is for gaining S-OFF.
The android is updatering were bothering me too and I read somewhere that is i kind of lazyness. It is normal when the phone boots but istead of some kind of image it is just telling you some stuff.
Hope this helps
/Chillum
Thnx for quick reply's.
If i choose to use SON, do i have to follow that guide every time i want to change/update a rom ?

no just flash the rom..but before flashing it ..you need to enable smart flash on 4EXT ..thats all
I actually tried the wire trick, was much easier then i first assumed. The only problem i encountered was this
I never got the question about installing the modified hboot, phone rebooted and it says Pyramid pvt ship s-off rl tho?

Ok first check you have Juopunutbear in bootloader.. If it's not
Then get the pyramid ics hboot from http://unlimited.io/hboot-downloads/
Then follow the instructions present in url I've linked above to flash the hboot
Then after flashing it
Use fastboot reboot-bootloader to get back to bootloader

Hi

Clockwork rom manager throws a message saying must root phone superuser not found at "/system/bin su or xbin/su I have super user installed
I have tried fastboot flash recovery recovery.img cant find the file or no such file (i pointed to the correct folder) Using Android SDK (not sure if it is installed correctly but had the required files in the folder with the unlock. bin
Tried HTC One X All-In-One Toolkit it said done but S is still on
Any Help very much appreciated and sorry if I have not done the obvious

with all in one tool kit you won't bring S-OFF
from this thread try to flash this recovery.it is better than cwm
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861 (only step 2)
I used HTC One X toolkit, but it wouldn't S-Off as I had hboot 1.29.0000, therefore couldn't use revolutionary method. In this instance you can s-off using a paperclip, some insulating tape, and running the ControlBear software. To find out how to do this, type the following into YouTube:
JuopunutBear S-Off HTC Sensation.
... That will show you how to achieve S-Off which will unprotected the nand storage to write enabled so you can flash a new ROM.
See JuopunutBear website for instructions. You can find it by typing:
unlimited.io
... Into google.
or you can use the guide from our forum in dev section

because you are S-ON when flashing a rom it doesn't write the boot partition by itself
the only thing you have to do is enable smartflash from 4ext recovery and after flash the rom
or
you can follow extra 1 step in the link i provided you in my first post

now asking for update I ok that phone eventually boots up then says unexpected UI error and screen goes blank. I cant get anything transferred to the phone as the pc isnt seeing it
Is there anyway to get a recovery on the phone so I can load a rom.
Juopunutbear backed up my images but have no idea how to get them back. Before the wire clip trick the phone had Super-Threading-Rom-v1.2.1 4ext recovery it seemed better than my old clockwork recovery
If this isnt bricked what rom would you suggest and how do i flash it

Hello everyone
First of all: YES I have watched the video of terms... over and over again (I just love it ) but I didn't find a thread solving my problem.
I am quite new to all this and I probably made a big mistake while unlocking my Sensation.
I've unlocked it via HTCdev (everything cool... easy to do). After that I wanted to s-off my device with Juopunutbears method failing at wireing the device. After several tries I decided to keep the s-on and try to unlock it another day... but now I was stuck to the Juopunutbear splash-screen. After reading some threads I decided to work over it using a boot.img to get the splash-screen away (BIG MISTAKE - now you can call me a noob 4 sure :silly I was stuck at the white HTC screen. I tried to undo my mistake using the jb_boot.img. Now I've got my JB splash-screen back but that's where it all ends. I tried to s-off again but my device is all bored of me handling the wrong stuff.
Anybody have an idea how to get back to stock or to s-off from my position ?

Hello everyone
First of all: YES I have watched the video of terms... over and over again (I just love it ) but I didn't find a thread solving my problem.
I am quite new to all this and I probably made a big mistake while unlocking my Sensation.
I've unlocked it via HTCdev (everything cool... easy to do). After that I wanted to s-off my device with Juopunutbears method failing at wireing the device. After several tries I decided to keep the s-on and try to unlock it another day... but now I was stuck to the Juopunutbear splash-screen. After reading some threads I decided to work over it using a boot.img to get the splash-screen away (BIG MISTAKE - now you can call me a noob 4 sure :silly I was stuck at the white HTC screen. I tried to undo my mistake using the jb_boot.img. Now I've got my JB splash-screen back but that's where it all ends. I tried to s-off again but my device is all bored of me handling the wrong stuff.
Anybody have an idea how to get back to stock or to s-off from my position ?

You are stuck on JB splash screen right....So if you want to revert back than try this press shift and open command prompt in the controlbear folder than try this command " ControlBear -r " without quotes hope this helps..

First of all - THANK YOU for your support. I appreciate that.
Ether way - It didn't work. I tried several boot.img and the -r command... Useless.
But now I FINALY GOT MY PHONE BACK... :victory:
This is how I made it: I don't know.... !!!!!!
I've worked myself throung different guides about 100 times.
The ROM that rescued me was the "HTC Revolution HD" (It was the ONLY ROM my phone wanted to flash).
After flashing that ROM I was able to get my phone back, s-off, overwrite the cid and do anything else I wanted to.
After all that I used the newest RUU and rooted it. Now it's runing perfect.
Thanks to all the Guides posted here - they ALL helped a bit. :good:
My phone, HTC Sensation XE, is S-ON, on default ROM, and has HBOOT 1.29.000. Needless to say, my phone is not rooted.
The phone is on a boot loop ever since I last took off the battery and placed it back. I sometimes get a message that my Android system is getting upgraded, terminating with an error "System UI has stopped working" before the phone restarts itself again.
I don't know if this is a hardware issue or software.
How do I get my phone to a normal state? I don't mind rooting the phone if I need to for the purpose of installing default/custom ROM. But I don't know if this would be possible because I only have access to boot screen at present.
Please suggest me suitable solutions. Thank you

if you are completely stock then i think you only option is to use a ruu.exe
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672425
find the one which corresponds with your region and cid

Thanks rzr86
I looked into the thread you suggested. For my region and CID, I was not able to get the RUU from the thread. What I could get was this - an OTA zip file that matches my software version exactly (3.33.720.106) from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764025
How do I proceed further with this zip file, since I don't have an executable RUU file?
I am hoping you can be of help -)
(The zip file contains -- META-INF, patch, system, firmware.zip, fotaBoot, version.txt)

I was of the same opinion itsakash, but I am not sure if I can SOFF from the bootloader screen because I have only that option available with me. Can you please refer to me a good guide on this forum where I can SOFF from bootloader?

Yes u can s off from bootloader
Use KGS utility or ganeshp one click root. ,s off method Check general section in sensation forum
Connect mobile to pc on bootloader screen( mobile should say fastboot USB )
And follow instruction carefully

When I try and do SOFF using KGS utility, it restarts my phone because my phone is not HTC dev unlocked. (My phone's motherboard was replaced some time ago, and so I cannot unlock my phone.)
ganeshp's one click root requires SOFF. I can't SOFF using his technique because temp_root.bat doesn't work in bootloader screen.
I am in trouble, and don't look like getting out of it

@ganeshp's one click root doesn't require htc dev unlock (meaning no prequisite permanent root; the guide has steps for temproot).
You just need one boot.
Do this: get the boot.img of your current (stock rom) and type fastboot boot boot.img.

I know its a long shot, but you should try doing a factory-reset from the bootloader, just in case it works.
Otherwise run an RUU from the bootloader.
firstly Itsakash he can't S-OFF because the device must be booted to the OS
secondly Far_SighT the command is fastboot flash boot boot.img
thirdly as raz0rf1sh suggested factory reset is a good idea and
fourthly jiteshgawali can you post your bootloader details?
It really is great to see your input guys.
@Far_SighT: I have tried doing the temp_root method, but it doesn't work for me. I could successfully run temp_root.bat just once (luckily, even in boot loop), but next when I tried doing the Juopunutbear SOFF it missed detecting my phone (again, because of the bootloop)
I don''t know where I can get a boot.img file from; for what it's worth, I could only get an OTA zip file for my region/CID from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1764025
@raz0rf1sh: I have done factory reset several times from bootloader, doesn't help friend. I don't have an RUU for my region/CID, all I have is an OTA zip file for my phone from the link I have specified right above this. Can't seem to get an RUU for firmware base 3.33, and CID HTC__038.

For stock rom go http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923629.
Get the rom and extract boot.img.
Then use the earlier command I posted.
Yes I haven't seen Indian version ruu until now ..so ruu is out of question AFAIK
Now the factory reset over boot loader should help if you have software problems but as per your replies it didn't work it seems
Tried HTC Dev unlock ? Even if the motherboard is replaced its worth a try
If htcdev unlock failed
Then try to go to recovery first ..from boot loader and if you went to recovery properly let me know
The other solution I propose is try to do change the cid ..even on locked bootloader sometimes it works
Try these commands one by one
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
Then
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then check cid using this command
fastboot getvar cid
If cid changed that's a good sign

I said fastboot boot boot.im instead of fastboot flash boot booti.img as the previous one boots the rom with with the new image but doesn't attempt to write that to the boot partition. Hence it might get him a much needed boot to s-off.

Thanks for responding Ganesh. HTC Dev Unlock never worked for me post change of motherboard, but thanks for the suggestion.
I am able to browse the recovery option from bootloader properly.
And it gives me a little satisfaction to let you know that I was able to change the CID to HTC__001 following your steps. Can you suggest what I should be doing next?
