There is currently no way to s-off the HTC One S. Best you can do is bootloader unlock.

My phone is boot load unlocked but I tryed installing vemon ROM but when I install it and reboot it gets stuck on load up for some reason. But on install it says something about being (s-off) I don't understand what its asking for then :/

Luckily you probably misnoticed that, no One S ROM needs S-Off to install AFAIK.

OK so why does it not boot up when I install the vemon rom? It shows blank black screen...

You need to flash the boot.img in fast boot.

Did what? Anyways this is a symptom of not flashing the boot.img properly. Do it using fastboot, there is a whole guide on doing this stickied in the development section.

Do like others have said, fastboot boot.img or try using TWRP recovery.

One of the rom threads has a boot.img script. Just replace the boot image on that script folder with yours and run the script.

Maybe it isn't the boot.img..maybe he chose full wipe in AROMA and it didn't flash. Try flashing by manually full wiping and then not full wiping in AROMA, then it should boot after you fastboot the boot.img.

Can't get trickdroid 9.1.0 to work please help

I've tried multiple times to flash trickdroid on my HTC one s(tmo) hboot 1.14.004, using twrp 2.3.3.0 and it just bootloops for a sec and goes back to recovery. I followed instructions to the T. I'm thinking its a kernel issue. Plus twrp won't finish flashing the Rom, get stuck at flashing kernel...

did you flash 9.0 first? 9.1 was a small update to 9.0.

What exactly do you think stock recovery is going to be able to do for you?
Stock is only worthwhile if you want to complete a OTA upgrade.
But by the sounds of it you are long past booting in to a stock ROM?
Flash a RUU?

The stock recovery might fix the problem that custom recovery is currently havin with updating partition details+another user elsewhere had fixed similar problem by flashing backnstock recovery then flashing custom recovery again. And yes i currently have cm10

Cant load any Rom but Venom.

As of right now I can't load any Rom except for venom. I don't know what is stopping my phone from working.
Background, dropped phone in the toilet, dried it out and everything worked. Went to change roms and something got messed up during the install which cause the phone to have no Os and no usb support. Got all of that straight, reloaded the phone back to stock, rooted it again, unlocked it, and loaded venom.
I have tried to load other roms but it will install in recovery but after reboot it will stay on the loading screen for the rom.
Any help will be great. Thanks!

You have to flash the boot.img

Hate to sound like I haven't been doing this for a while but where do I get the boot.img?

*facepalm* all roms have there own boot.img. if you open your Rom you'll see what says boot. That is it and you go into fastboot and flash it or use the flash gui app

Thanks. I only ask because I have never had this issue before.

Venom has a way of flashing the boot.img for you...but otherwise since you're on hboot 1=14 you have to manually flash the boot img....dont worry that's why were here to help!

Unfortunately it sounds like when you reflashed to stock you upgraded the hboot, which in turn makes it so you have to flash the boot.img through fastboot. It's unfortunate, but there is a JET tool if you're experienced in Linux to downgrade your hboot. but, like I said, don't do it unless you're confident.

Thanks guy. I got it to work with the flash GUI. Back to clean Rom!
