[Q] I have S-OFF but locked HBoot 1.27, how do I unlock it without going through htc - HTC Sensation

I have a sensation with S-off via Revolutionary IO, but I took the ICS update and the HBoot was upgraded to 1.27 and was locked. I want to try the Bruce2728 CM10 Kang. What would be the next step for me? Should I just use the Sensation_4G_All-In-One_Kit to flash 4EXT recovery and install the rom? Do I have to unlock the 1.27 Hboot first? What about hacking the CID to make it a superCID? Thanks for your help.

Use the kgs super utility and flash a juopunutbear hboot... Also do supercid.. Then go with flashing 4EXT recovery... Then flash the rom with full wipe all done

[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.

Well what's done is done... Wait for ICS official RUU... Probably it will flash...
Atleast thug can flash a Rom...
For wifi issue, i suggest you reset the router...I have doubts that will solve your issue..

Seems to be the only solution at this point. Based on revolutions history, how long would you say that might be?

HBOOT 1.23.000 S-ON / unlock or relock ( secureflag 3) without firmware
now i have HyperSensation_v1.8_R
4ext recovery touch
Does anyone know how to upgrade or downgrade hboot?
This guide will help

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.

I was in the same situation, used the Juopunutbear S-OFF method and it worked. Don't forget to thank the developer.

You can't downgrade your hboot with s-on. That really is common knowledge and if you weren't aware of that, I would suggest you do a lot more reading before attempting s-off anyway. I'm sorry to be a **** but you aren't ready.
I'm suggest you to wait until revo come out with the support for your HBOOT version
Hi. Try this method. Read first and if you have any further questions aks there.

This method is NOT for 1.27 hboot.
Isn't running a GB RUU enough to have everything back to a "S-OFFable" setting?
I used an "old" RUU to go back to a revolutionary compatible hboot on a friend of mine's Incredible S (hboot 2.0 to 1.13) and it worked... Is there something I don't know as the reason for this not to work on the Sensation (surely there is... )?

[Q] I was stupid again :(

Hey guys,
tonight I tried to unlock my HBoot 1.27 Sensation with T-Mobile Germany branding.
I used the htcdev method successfully. Then I installed 4ext recovery.
Till now everything was fine.
But then I thought, I could wipe the old T-Mobile stuff from NAND, in order to install CM9.
But now I have an empty S-On, htcdev unlocked phone and can not install any ROM, because there are no ICS RUU files availble for TMobile Germany phones.
4ext recovery is working fine.
So, what can I do now to S-OFF my phone, or to get any ROM on it?
I do not own any backups
for your situation see this thread

if you want to S-OFF see this thread

I'm not a pro, but I think you'll need to unlock by HTC DEV and install root access, change the software version with misc_version, relock your phone and flash old RUU with hboot 0.98.0000.
This should enable you to unlock your phone by revolutionary like described in the dev section and get S-OFF...
I'm lucky that i didn't flash my phone with the latest RUU, so i didn't need to unlock by HTC DEV.
Until now, no posibility is known to unlock without HTC DEV...
