[Q] Does anybody think revolutionary will update?

Hello, I am s-on (by accident) and hboot 1.23 and i cant flash any new firmware so no ics for me. The only solution is for revolutionary to support it which it doesn't. Could ANYBODY please tell me if there are any plans whatsoever that revolutionary will be updated? Sorry is this offends the devs of it, i'm not purposefully asking for an ETA, i'm just desperate.

Why don't you use htcdev.com?

Because that doesn't give s-off it only unlocks the bootloader.

I'd like to know this too for when the update comes.

Why don't you just use an official Gingerbread RUU? It downgrades the bootloader to 1.18 on which you can use Revolutionary.

They won't... I am sure of this... They haven't got any reason to upgrade... They have s-offed yet so no more work for them here

I do think they'll add support for the new hboot when they can, especially since alot of sensations will upgrade ota or possibly come with the new hboot out of the box in the future.

We have an S-OFF 1.27.1100 hboot so that sort of proves that they are updating it doesn't it?

For some reason when I updated to the leaked ICS RUU I was still unlocked and S-off, whereas my girlfriends phone went back to being locked, though still S-off. Both with Hboot 1.27.0000. A bit off topic I know, but I can't figure out why...

Just flash any firmware package like mike1986's or baadnewz's ones from the respective threads and it will give you both the unlocked bootloader

Telstra branded Sensation

Tried to s-off my wifes sensation but no good thru revolutionary.io ( Thanks to Telstra ****) so I used the htcdev method and unlocked bootloader with s-on. Using twrp recovery tried to flash a Ics Rom and got stuck in boot loop. Can someone please point me in the right direction, been searching post all night. Wifes not happy, using my old Hd2 today. Please help!!

You can't flash Rom with s-on you need to run ruu from pc to revert back to normal provide some more information about ur phone.

It is h-boot 1.18.000 CID Telstra001. I tried to install the Telstra stock Ruu back on but it said modle id incorrect.

Is there a way to flash Rom similar to My EVO 3d with s-on ie, flash boot.IMG thru fastboot and then flash rom?
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using xda premium

Revolutionary will definitely work with ur hboot you can see I have same hboot I got soff via revolutionary. There r chances u get error msg. Try to boot ur phone and pc reconnect it will work. Best thing I suggest get soff first rather then messing around.

I tried about 4 times with revolutionary do you think I might need to make a gold card to prevent it checking Cid?

U don't need gold card for sensation.

Using a stock RUU will get you back to stock and aslong as you don't root it when its back to stock you should be able to get HTC updates. There should be threads all over the place on how to safely install stock RUU and there is a thread full of RUU's in the development section. Just please please please research the correct procedure and make sure you get the right RUU I would love to be of more assisstance but its getting late here and got to be up early. But I'm sure if you look it up and make sure you research properly you should be fine

Or..... If you made a backup of your stock Rom before you flashed a custom rom. Just make sure you're on the sane firmware as stock and restore it. But if your rooted I don't think youl get official update.

I found cravens thread for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542555 just make sure you read properly, the thread is not aimed at restoring to stock but the RUU is there and instructions.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium

not working HHHEEEEELLLPPppppppp

What's not working? The thread says its a European RUU so if you're not in Europe youl need to find one for your area. Then run it on your computer and follow the instructions. If you can't find one for your area/country and you want the European one use the link in cravens thread to change your CID to HTC__001 then run it on your computer.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium

I believe your phone has to be connected at the hboot screen to the computer when running the RUU

Just to confirm, it does not matter the state of the phone (s-off, bootloader, firmware, rom, etc), as long as supercid or cid matches, ruu will flash fine? Will it be 100% stock? Thinking about buying this phone that the last owner supposedly "screwed up on" but still goes into hboot. Beyond that, don't know anything except it's a TMO phone.
RUU will flash firmware (radio, hboot, bootloader are components?) and rom?
Will it touch s-off / unlocked bootloader / unlocked radio / cid?

Which roms are ok to install??

I have s-on with hboot 1.27 and ICS unlocked thru HTC dev site rooted and 4ext recovery I was just wondering how do I know which roms I can install I think the firmware has to be the same as mine which is 3.32.xx how do I know which ones have this firmware. I'm looking to try a sense 4 or plain aosp Rom any suggestions on which is good thanx for any help

You could just follow: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617
Then you'd have full S-OFF, then any ROM you like )
Here are some RUUs you could try, including 3.33. Depends if your CID is "HTC__001" or SuperCID I guess.

Enable smart flash (4EXT - tools) just before flashing the ROM.. That will mostly do..
If you have wifi issues/not booting.. Then do the extra1 step from asskickers Flashing roms with SON guide.
If the wifi still persists after that too.. Then re flash the rom again.. Without any wipe this time.. But need to enable smart flash this time too before flashing the rom..

All the custom ROMs OP will detail the pre-requisites r.e. firmware. Make sure you read them.
I would still advise you go get full S-OFF if you can, I've recently done it on 1.27.0000 and the paper clip hack was a little bit of a pain to get the timing right but it did work. It makes life much simpler. You could then, for example, downgrade if required
NOTE: currently HBOOT 1.29.0000 cannot be S-OFF'd so do it while you can.

Fair enough, if I'm wrong I'm sorry. I had read somewhere that 1.29.0000 had issues being S-OFF'd and 1.27.0000 was the most recent one that could. Guess the information I based my statement on was wrong.

I think he means that you should downgrade the hboot but it is not possible with an s-on device.
To s-off your device you can use this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617
Root your device with this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1668276

Yes there is a easy way of doing it you could flash a ruu that has the boot 1.17 and then head on over to alpha revolutionary and then s off and then root and then head over to 4ext.net download your new custom recovery and set it up and then upgrade your firmware to 3.32 or 3.33 you will then have hboot 1.27 next flash a Rom
