Downgrade needed. How-to? - HTC ChaCha

Hi, I made that account especially to ask that question. The problem is that I wanted to unlock my phone via HTC Dev's unlocking soft but unfortunately i have higher RUU than the needed one I dunno how the hell could it happen but if you have any ideas how I can return to the stock RUU I would really aprecciate it. Thanks in advance.

Skip the step about RUU Update and continue unlocking via HTC Dev. No need to downgrade.

Thanks I'll try that later !

read all this and u will figure out
Go through the guides on the index thread in the desire s development section.
Also read the tips on how to avoid bricking.
If done correctly, totally safe. Depends on your experience n patience too I guess. U haven't mentioned what version hboot etc you have which is the starting point.
Re your recovery thread, Google it or search xda, there's also a glossary...

Does revolutionary requires administrator to run? Cuz I don't hv the admin rights x( is there any method that I can bypass that? Sorry if this sound stupid
You will be fine with revolutionary,it's. What I used to do mine straight from virgin. it will S-off then drop the file you download from the site on the SD card and flash it to get root

Is it possible to root in the new update?

I had this phone since it came out, and rooted and S-Off and I had tons of issues. Such as Wifi disconnecting and needing to restart the phone in order for it to work, also sometimes Wifi slowed down to a super crawl. Random reboots, etc. But this probably could of been credited to me dropping it all the time and messing up the internals.
I returned it and got a new one, updated to the latest and haven't rooted. Battery life is amazing, but too much bloatware!!!! Can I root and s-off the latest tmobile software? Cause I tried running the older RUU and that failed to install on my phone.

Um... S-off? The One S?
But yeah unlocking and rooting should be no problem, just use htcs unlock method...

You are saying that HTC them selves provided a rooting guide? If so can you provide a link for HTC Unlock method.
Thanks in advance

No HTC does not provide a rooting guide. They simply make it easy for you to unlock the bootloader using http://www.htcdev.com/
Once the bootloader is unlock you can root via a few method. There's plenty of sticky thread in the dev section.
This is just one thread

I recommend you install TWRP recovery so that you will find it simpler to flash roms. No need to fastboot flash boot.img.

Don't suppose u have a link to a guide?
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
I'm in the same boat. Just got the one s (tmobile us version) and rooted/unlocked it right away. Now trying to get the updates with out bricking my device. A how to guide would be very helpful or at least a link to the ruu.
Think I need an 02 ruu but I'm not sure
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
Step 1: Relock.
Step 2: Run the RUU.
Guide: http://www.htconeforum.com/forum/ht...e-your-htc-one-s-back-100-stock-relocked.html
RUU can be found here: http://www.filefactory.com/f/cf061f69b5bf7878/

Anyway to backup a Rom on a locked stock i4g?

My mother in law has an i4g and is having a lot of lag and app fc so I want to backup everything on her phone including the Rom itself. This is due to the only way of unlocking I have found is through the dev unlock on HTC website. Didn't know if I could do an adb backup without having s-off or unlocked bootloader. Any help us appreciated.
