so i unlocked my device via HTCDev.com thinking since its htc device and all they said was i had to unlock bootloader to flash custon OS's i already knew about S-OFF but being the site didn't talk about it(why would it) i went and flash virtouous ROM and got stuck at the HTC screen. i wasnt thinking so i never backed up the stock HTC Rom!!
now i tried 2 of those RUU's in the shipped rom thread the tmous ones with 29 and 50 both saying wrong version.
my question here is there anyway to get at least one RUU to work or get s-off from HBOOT?
my reason of doing this after going back to completely stock is i cant wait any longer for HTC/Tmobile to get us ICS so i tried the custom way and failed lol
I am sure unless you super SID you will have to find ROMs specific for the country the phone came from.
Eg my phone was from Asia region and I could not flash Euro ROMs
ok from the Shipped rom thread in the dev section for the sensation i was trying to go back to stock to gain s-off but the tmous(USA) which is where i am from said wrong version.

What h boot version do you have?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G with Beats Audio using xda premium
Hboot: 1.18.0000
Check your CID using fastboot getvar cid to see if these still match the ROM you were trying to flash.
says for cid is t-mob010
i guess out of the 2 stock ruu"s from the post doesnt match that?
edit: ok from what i learned in another post i opened up the rom.zip file and looked at android-info.txt both the cid and mid matched my phones from the RUU file "RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.50.531.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_223976_signed" buuuuttttt it tried to update it but fails saying i need to correct version :\

Are you on t mous us?
Also you can s off and super cid and flash any ruu.

Yes i am. the 2 Ruu's i am using seem to have matching info to my phone when i went to get the rom.zip it uses to send to my phone and looked in the android-info.txt but tell me to get the correct RUU and try again. i got the from here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559 under the tmous RUU one with 29 and the other 50.
so i am just stuck at the white screen with the word HTC. if i could get s-off and SuperCID through fastboot that would be awesome but googling it shows up that i cant s-off via fastboot ughhh
still no luck cant seem to flash anything without s-off or supercid
so looks like i am jumping the boat going to sprint this thursday and geting the iphone 4s...byebye android
If you can get into fastboot you should be able to flash RUU from there. Just download the RUU.exe and run it as administrator. Follow the prompts in the exe program while your phone is in fastboot mode.

Maybe iCrap is better for you. When you use Android phones and want to complete unlock them for flashing customroms aso you shoud realy learn to read before you do something. I hate it when people are not able to read about the stuff they want to do and when something goes wrong they blaim Android for it.
To get s-off, super CID and root on a HTC Android device is realy easy if you read the how-to threads and normaly takes about 15 minutes.
Have fun with your iCrap 4S and please don't try to jailbreak it before you read some stuff.

first off let me say i have rooted and flashed roms on my sensation before just fine. i was unlocking via htcdev.com and figured their method didnt require s-off since it didnt say anything about it. it just talked about unlocking it to put customs os's on it. 2nd i always had a love hate thing for IOS since i had the 3G and ipod touch.
far as using the RUU'ss it tells me i need the correct Ruu version or something like that. maybe because i didnt run as admin but i have all that stuff turned off due to the theme i used for windows 7 required it off.
If I were you I would Super CID your device. That is what I had to do. A great guide that I used was http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1472298
i tried and i get this error
vreg_set: request is duplicated id 14

and my cid remains the same as t-mb010
how can i fix it? would love to get mt device back up and running
You can recover this. Firstly read this guide, regarding downgrading hboot and getting s-off.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23222794
The problems are due to HTC.dev not unlocking all parts of the boot loader - you can't flash radio.img or boot.img so nothing is working.

Hello everyday android fans just got this great phone from my uncle and would love to flash a rom on it (not a fan of sense ui) , Rooting. the best thing about android, we all want to root it, flash a rom or other goodies. But the one thing we android fans hate? Bricking. Im tired of bricking my phones because of someone elses stupid mistake, weather its a broken link when your half way into the process, wrong file or broken file, im tired of it, i have bricked so many great phones, so i have googled and searched this thread and i dont know where to start i cant find any root tuts, i know that htc dosent like it when people root their phones (dont know if this is true correct me if im wrong) because of the unlock thing and S-On. Now can someone please direct me to a root thread and maby even a rom, i would like a non sense rom but ics 4.0.4 or jb 4.1.1 sorry for how dumb i am.

They're the same phone. I recommend you read the guide. Root, S-Off and Unlock are all explained in great detail in the guide.
There have to be other small differences too, no? Screens or something, right?
First thing OP needs to do is check the build version. That will determine if you can run the aahk straight or if you need to unlock with htcdev first, flash insecure boot, downgrade, then root...

The Hack Kit can always be used, he has to find what kinda preparation needs to be done for it to work.
Desire HD and Inspire and similar, DHD is the European version, and therefore the different frequencies, the rest are just the same. Even radios can be shared.

Root and S-OFF are different things. Root means that you have administrator permissions at the rom level, so you can set different permissions in the rom. But, you can not flash all kinda stuff such as radios.
Unlocking the bootloader will allow you to flash CWM recovery and custom roms, but again not radios or boot images in recovery (you have to do it manually). As long as there is no other tool to gain S-OFF, unlocking the bootloader is the best choice.

I obtained AAHK literally the day before he retired it. I read everything thoroughly and it went off great with no problems. I think I might have been one of the last people to get S-OFF on this phone before he retired it. The only thing I can tell you is you might be able to google for ace advanced hack kit. I know you can find the blog this way, and you may be able to find the kit somewhere else to download. If you do happen to find the download somewhere, read EVERYTHING on the blog. If you read for comprehension and follow directions carefully, you can root and s-off without bricking. I did it first try no problems. Now I'm running Energy ROM for Sense 3.5 and love it.

I do not recommend trying to download AAHK and run it. You will probably get stuck in the middle. AAHK downloaded files from its servers during the process. That server is now down.

Now, you need to unlock the bootloader with HTCDEV, flash a recovery like CWM, and either: flash a rooted ROM, or a su binary and a superuser app.
In the past when AAHK was around it was a much better option (gave S-Off) than bootloader unlock, which is probably why you see people saying not to use bootloader unlock. Now that AAHK is gone, unless/until glevitan makes his S-Off tool, bootloader unlock is the only option.

In post #7 of the thread linked in my signature, glevitan has a beginner's guide that includes instructions on bootloader unlock and root. There are also many threads strewn around the HTC Desire HD forums detailing how to do it step by step. (Note: DHD is essentially the same phone as the Inspire 4G; you can use their ROMs and their instructions, though I would be careful about their radios.)
EDIT: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2169515 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2168500
If you were a bit silly like me, perhaps you flashed the JB OTA on your Telus HOX before you rooted, unlocked, got SuperCID and S-Off. I didn't have much luck searching the forum for exact steps on how to get that stuff after taking the OTA. All the info is here, but I was confused what applied to my Telus phone and what would work even after the JB OTA. So I figured I'd detail my steps here in case someone else wants a detailed guide. Obviously the credit for everything below goes to the original authors of the techniques. I'm just linking stuff.
Unlock
1.Register at HTCDev and follow the directions to unlock your bootloader. Its pretty straightforward. You don't need to download the whole huge 300+ Android SDK. You can just get the adb-fastboot package from this thread.
Flash Recovery
I flashed TWRP with one-click via this AIO toolkit. There is probably tons of other ways to do it.
Root
Not sure its possible to root the stock JB unless you install a different ROM. So I did a system reset in TWRP and the flashed the Viper XL ROM. Its pre-rooted.
SuperCID
Its quite easy - just follow this guide exactly.
S-Off
Follow this guide and you shouldn't have a problem.
Once you have all that, you can downgrade your touch firmware. The reason to do this is if you want to install AOSP-based ROMs like CyanogenMod or AOKP. I haven't done that yet because I'm pretty happy with ViperXL. If you want to stick with Sense-based ROMs it isn't necessary to downgrade.
As a final note, once you've got ViperXL and S-Off I'd highly recommend trying the ElementalX Kernel.

Yup, if you managed to unlock the bootloader then you're clear to go all the way to s-off (and you should).
I have a htc one S , but this SuperCID doesn't work on my device.
Does it work after the JB OTA with the One X ?
I'm unable to use my Phone without using custom ROMs, 'cause I can't flash any RUU (CID is T-MOB101).
(I had battery problems after JB OTA-Update)
This isn't the One S forum. I'd advise asking in the appropriate forum.
Ok i can bearly find any info i'm sorry if im in the wrong place but the one x plus from [email protected] just got an ota is it still posible to root after this update? I tryed hysoon200's tool kit but the htc dev website claims my unlock key is too short i coppied it perfectly several times infact the last time i almost bricked it the screen was black for a half hour and after 2-5 mins holding the power button it booted back up can someone please point my retarted a$$ to the rite direction?
Hey, the One X+ is a totally different phone so I can' t really say what's the best direction. You are best off posting in the One X+ forum.

If I do this, will I lose my SIM unlock? I am using an unlocked Telus One X with Fido. Thanks.
You can s-off. You just need to change yiur cid to 11111111 first. Aosp roms are all in the original android development section of this forum.
I believe carrier unlock is done at the bootloader layer so it should not affect your sim unlock

After finally managing to work around Windows 8 and its BS, I rooted and unlocked the bootloader on my AT&T One X.
I'm now at the point of trying to update HBoot so that I can use the JB Roms. The phone is currently still running ICS. I followed the tutorial on YouTube from"onexroot" using JBWFlasher. My HBOOT versin is 1.14 currently, Originally my phone was S-ON with a CID of "11111111". I S-OFF'ed the phone and changed the CID to HTC__001 and all the way down the list because I keep getting the error "FAILED (remote: 41 model id check fail)". No matter which CID I give the phone or if I attempt to update for a device with S-ON or S-OFF.
Not really sure what else to try at this point as I've searched here and all over Google. I didn't want to bother you guys with it but I don't know where else to go.
Thanks for any help in advance.

Unless I'm missing something, you don't need to update hboot to use JB ROMs. I never did and I've been using Sense and AOSP jellybean ROMs for the past 7 months or so.

Yeah there's no need to update anything, just flash a jb rom from recovery. Once you have s-off hboot version kinda becomes moot

That model Id check fail is because your trying to flash a rom for the wrong phone.
Your lucky that's happening because usually it just bricks.
I should probably add that some people cannot boot newer JB Roms without updating hboot but that is not always the case and I still have no idea why it is so for some.

i've unlocked my att one x got supercid.. and then i decided to change it to htc_405... so... it was the wrong choice! and now i can't get back to supercid, i've tryied all guides on forum but no one works..
from adb shell.. command writes.. device not found.
also installed newest htc drivers but nothing changes.. the hasoon allin1 tool doesnt work and i dont know what to do..hellppp :crying:

i know but i changed it to recieve eu update.. didn't know that he has other cpu.. so now i cant change it to supercid or the original one..
You're kinda stuck then. To change CID more than once you need s-off, but to get s-off you need SuperCID. You probably should have done some research before you did that.

Maybe you can hex edit your mmcblk0p4 and change the cid back to super cid or the AT&T cid. DO MORE RESEARCH ABOUT THIS. I cannot help you step by step because I have not attempted this myself. THIS IS JUST AN IDEA AND MAY BRICK YOUR PHONE. I am not responsible for what will happen of you attempt this.
In the sticky-roll up, there is a thread called "AT&T: Unlocking the bootloader through HTCdev." The title looks irrelevant to your issue, but it has information about hex editing the mmcblk0p4 file

Ensure that USB debugging is turned on.
Verify that HTC Sync is not running.
Try other cables, USB ports and even other computers.

Are you on a Jellybean Sense ROM currently? Does fastboot detect the device? I had a heck of a time getting adb to see the device (but fastboot was working fine), back when the s-off method first came out, while on a Jellybean Sense ROM. I tried any number of the usual fixes, such as different drivers, different USB cords, and a different PC. The only thing that worked is using an old nandroid to go back to ICS, and adb picked up the phone right away. All I can think is that the change to MTP storage somehow messed with the adb connectivity for me (but not for others, I don't know).
BTW, reported to mods to move this thread, as it should be in Q&A.

If you want to get back to ICS to see if adb works: Make a nandroid of your current setup. Then just flash any stock rooted of custom ICS ROM. This is assuming you are still bootloader unlocked.
Of course, I'm not necessarily saying this will work (get adb to work). But it worked for me, and if you are out of options, then its certainly worth a try. If it doesn't work, just restore your nandroid, and you are no worse off.
What is your hboot version?
Also, RUU will not run if the CID is incorrect. So you' ve screwed yourself from running any correct RUU.

That post is really confusing, your sentence structure and punctuation is all over the place. Can you clear it up a bit and ask again?

Yeah, not sure what was being said there. Did going back to ICS fix the adb issue, or did you find another way? So you have SuperCID now? If so, do the facepalm method to get s-off.
If you are still trying to get SuperCID, I don't think hasoon's all-in-one tool will work. Believe its looking for the AT&T CID (cws__001), so any other CID, it will fail. You'll have to use the hex edit method.
Problem is solved thanks I did s-off but I would like to ask you another question.. I installed clear rom sense 5 but the device has very low signal the radio firmware is 0.24p are there new updates to increase the quality?

I'm not sure which which radio you're referring to there. Have you updated the firmware as suggested in the CR thread?
