[Q] How to remove ENG HBOOT? - HTC Sensation

Hey guys,
I want to change my MID. For this reason I have to flash ENG HBOOT.
1.) I cant find a link to download the ENG HBOOT
The link form this thread is no longer available:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193033
EDIT: I found it here:
http://www.share-online.biz/dl/EOEPEAQLFF
2.) After flashing the ENG HBOOT and changing the MID, I want to flash the latest gingerbread RUU for my phone:
RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.50.401.1_Radio_10.56.9035 .00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_223042_signed.exe
Do I have to remove the ENG HBOOT before flashing the RUU or will ENG HBOOT be replaced with the stock HBOOT?
Or how can I remove the ENG HBOOT? (because I read, that ICS will not boot with ENG HBOOT)
Thank you in advance

Ruu will take care of Eng hboot

Yeah, you´re right. After flashing e.g. stock RUU the ENG HBOOT was replaced by stock HBOOT
Btw: changing MID with ENG HBOOT worked fine :good:

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.

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.

Don't bother updating to latest 2.xx.xxxx HBOOT there is no advantage for you to do so at this point.
Although it is worth you upgrading to the official ENG bootloader which is 98.2000 which you'll find here

Copy the file PG88..... File must be Case sensitive to root of your sd card then boot to hboot and confirm when it asks you to update
After boot, ensure that you rename or remove the file from your sd card
Swyped from my Desire S using XDA Premium
I try to flash in Hboot and it abborted
This .bat didn't work for me. So I've opened it in notepad and copy-pasted those commands. So I have 0.98.2000 eng s-off. Sorry for my English

That's correct. You screwed yourself when you updated to ics firmware with s-on (or you set s-on after flashing though i can't figure out why). You are stuck for now until revolutionary supports the new hboot or until a new update that is supported comes out. You can now only upgrade, no downgrading for you, until s-off.

I would advise to flash a jb_hboot because juopunutbear hboot has unlocked extended fastboot commands whereas 1.29 doesnt.
As to what has changed from 1.27.x to 1.29.x well Im afraid htc doesnt release changelog so to be perfectly blunt, we dont know

Back to stock hboot question

Hi. I wanted to go back to stock.
RUU flashed, bootloader status locked, hboot 1.18.
How do I know that hboot is original and it is safe to s-on?

Do you have an HTC sensation or HTC sensation XE? Because HTC sensation/XE does not have hboot of 1.44. Also, there's not really a "stock hboot". Android 2.3 (gingerbread) uses hboot version 1.18 and android 4.0+ uses 1.27 or 1.29 hboot.

Hi,
Look HERE
S-on is fully explained.
I saw that, but after reading this I'm not sure if my hboot is signed one and it is safe to execute "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3"
I was messing with hboot a lot in the past, dunno what is flashed to the phone now.
So the question is: how to make sure that my hboot is stock one to perform s-on command?

A ruu should return you to stock hboot.
And, in case you have any doubts, the HTC unbricking project can solve brick caused by s on with incorrect hboot.
