So I need some help. I'm not new to android or adb or anything, just confused with this. Here's some background info:
HTC One S (Cincinnati Bell)
S4 Variant
Unlocked boot loader
Rooted (on stock ROM)
TWRP installed
Hboot 1.14
SuperCID
Problem: tried installing the latest CM10 and also CM10.1 with no success(endless boot animation, and 10.1 gets stuck on the HTC screen). I read I news to flash a boot.IMG to get it to work since I'm not S-off. Where can I find this boot.IMG that needs to be flashed?
Any help is much appreciated! Couldn't find anything from my searches.
Extract it from the ROM zip

If you are able to access TWRP recovery, you should be able to mount your SD card and transfer a new rom onto your phone via your computer(download it onto your computer and transfer it using your USB cable), or if you made a nandroid backup from a point in time when your phone was working, that should do the trick. If you really want to flash a custom boot.img, I recommend using this to flash it.
He already had the ROM installed, he just needs to fastboot the boot.img to get it to boot.

Yeah, before I went to bed I figured it was was in the ROM. Thank you! I'll have another go at it.
Why is it that the boot.IMG doesn't get flashed properly? Is anyone working on a fix?
Edit: worked perfectly! Thanks guys!
Its because of your hboot. hboot 1.14 and higher dont flash it properly.
Fix for it? Downgrade to a lower hboot, or flash the boot.img from the phone before flashing a new rom with flash image gui, or just live with it.
S-OFF might also remove the need for seperate flash of the boot.img, I havnt bothered looking into it so I dunno...
Right now I'm on CM10, and let's say I want to switch to the 10.1 nightly's. I shouldn't have to flash the boot.IMG for each new nightly since its the same ROM, correct?

It depends on which rom you stay with. If you stay on CM10, then you do not have to flash the boot.img everytime you flash a new nightly. But if you go to 10.1, then you will have to flash that boot.img first. If you have S-Off the boot.img will be flashed from TWRP when the rom is flashed, and you wont have to do it from Fastboot. I don't suggest you try to downgrade you Hboot, especially because we have S-Off now. Although some people are finding that they can no longer connect to any signal above Edge/2g after S-Off.
That's why I didn't want to go s-off just yet. I saw some people having trouble with it, and since I've got a different model (Cincinnati Bell version) than the s-off guide has, I decided not to until it was 100% stable. Thanks for the help though guys! As long as I've got to a way to flash roms without too much headache, I'm happy.

So I've done the procedures correctly from the Facepalm S-Off for HTC One S and I still don't have S-Off.
I got to the last process of getting S-Off, did the:
adb push soffbin3 /data/local/tmp/
adb shell chmod 744 /data/local/tmp/soffbin3
adb shell su -c "/data/local/tmp/soffbin3"
then rebooted to bootloader to see if I have S-Off, but then I still don't.
I read online somewhere that with S-Off, I could install a ROM easily through recovery, is it true?
I also need help installing ROMs on this phone ):
Here's the story:
I hardbricked my old HTC so I got a new one. My old one, one that I bought after graduation around June, it had hboot 1.09 and was able to install ROMs easily in twrp while I was S-On+Unlocked Bootloader ONLY. No SuperCID or S-Off. So, I bought a new HTC One S from someone selling it on Craigslist. It had hboot 1.14, which I did not check yet. I bought it, so happy I got another One S until I realized I was only getting EDGE/2G. I read somewhere online where it was part of T-Mobile's update that messed it up, and a way to fix it was to install a new ROM. Any ROM I tried installing wouldn't go past the boot animation screen. Let's say I installed BB7, it wouldn't go past the boot animation.
If anyone can help, please. I'm on a 4g plan on T-Mobile getting only EDGE/2g and not able to install any other ROMs w/out getting stuck on boot animation. Old phone was faster than this.

Have you tried doing it after? I have seen different instructions that say to do it different ways.
I have heard about the data issue too. I heard you could just go to network settings. change it to GSM only and then reboot. then switch back to Auto and rebooted again and it would come back (not an official solution... just something I read on here somewhere)
I am not have this issue.
regarding flashing a new ROM.... the phone should not be doing this...
I would go through the final steps of S-off again and see if you can get it to work.
I have heard of some issues that people are having... so I have not tried S-off yet... It doesnt bug me... it takes two more seconds to use fastboot.
just keep trying with different process... like hard reset then flash. or recover an old ROM then wipe and flash... IDK... just trying to help.
good luck

Like which instructions? I've tried to flash through TWRP, but I've seen other people have problems with flashing through TWRP with hboot 1.14, which includes me. So, I've tried that method and using CMD to fastboot it. Both didn't go so well. I also haven't tried testing other ROMs cos I've tried to flash 2 different ROMs (BB7, Liquid Smooth, JellyBam 4.1.0), but all 3 of them stayed on the boot animation screen and I never got to use my phone. My solution to those not working since I'm not able to flash any ROMs was to Go into Bootloader> Relock Bootloader > Go to Fastboot > & Ran RUU_Ville_U_ICS_40_S_TMOUS_2.35.531.7_Radio_1.08ts.50.02.16_10.08e.50.04L_release_279577_signed.exe

I'll try changing my network settings and get back to you on that.
How long would you wait on the Boot Animation screen? Cos I waited for about 5 minutes for it to load and it never loaded all the way.
I've tried the final step +3 times. The last few times I've tried it, it looked successful when I saw that my CMD sent the file and it said "OKAY", so I rebooted into my Bootloader like the very last step Facepalm's S-Off guide had said, but I didn't see what I was looking for ):
I've tried hard reset and flash, no luck. I'll try the old ROM thing.
It's such a hassle to get back to a working ROM, which you all know is phone's stock ROM I've been using, with the RUU exe.

The very first time i get 92 an then failed in the second part of "pushing soffbin", when i tried again, i get error 99, but then i read some post about powering off the device, and it worked i get again error 92 and worked fine.
I had the same error and situation, first time error 92 but not after that,keept getting error 99 keept trying with diffrent Roms until I got the 92. I was on the 1.09 hboot the funny part is since I have s off I upgraded to the latest hboot 2.15( thanks to the flashable zips in the theam section) to my surpprize I could not flash viperon that hboot, so I went back to my 1.09 hboot and everything worked really good like always, so my poqint is were still having problems on higher hboots even with s off why?????, the only good thing about s off I have found is thanks to the flashable zips we can upgrade or downgrade the hboot just by flashing it, now its back to the 1.09 hboot

P.S. when I flashed the boot images for the rom it honestly wiped my internal SD and I lost my nandroid... wishing I had copied it to my computer.

Use 2.3.3.0 instead...
Thanks guys, I have actually tried 2.3.3.0 due to reading that in another thread. What I see is I can get various aroma installers to start, but at the actual install they seem to fail gaining access to areas on the phone. It's worth mentioning that I have reflashed stock boot img and stock recovery, relocked and attempted various RUU's but I understand that the hboot at 2.15 is most likely why that method fails.
I'm unlocked again but I think I'm going to try reflash stock recovery relock clear and reset all storage etc. then unlock use twrp and re-attempt a flash.
Any suggestions on a rom that should'nt have issues with hboot 2.15?
To flash RUUs you need to be on stock recovery, not custom.
2.15 came with JB. Trickdroid or ViperOneS would be sense roms, else you could flash CM 10.1 or derivates (AOSP/AOKP).
As long as you flash the according kernels in fastboot mode you can also use ICS roms. That doesn't matter.
--- edit
as with 2.15 you could only flash the 3.16 RUU which still isn't available (the one here is for ONE S SE and exits with errors. To flash earlier RUUs you will need an earlier bootloader version. There are two ways: To downgrade bootloader or s-off. As downgrading is a pain you should think about s-off.
Thank You
Yes I was on stock recovery and stock boot img and relocked during that attempt.
does the hboot version matter?
(based upon what I have read it won't flash if my hboot is newer)
Ok, just answered this as edit while you posted. lol
Thank You again!
I have looked into downgrading and a pain might be an understatement I'm looking into the One S toolkit to see what i can do for me... Here's hoping the RUU with hboot 2.15 gets leaked soon.
Let me pm you with a few useful links for a s-off device this evening (Germany, UTC +1) as it's 5:45 in the morning here and I've got to go to work now... :laugh:

Holy crap that was painful...
I once again have a rom running! I did so many things but in the end I pushed Energy Rom to the device and it's boot.img after wiping multiple times reformating. Energy Rom is the only one that would complete install without write errors. Very strange stuff but for now i am happy.
Thanks again man!
Damn, I searched this thread for 20 minutes... :cyclops:
Which recovery are you using?
Anyway you should better use TWRP <= 2.3.3.0 for flashing roms.
(gonna write your pm now, will take some time and sorry for the delay!)
I'm all good now. Running Venom and very happy. I appreciate your efforts.
The recovery question tho I had to swap back and forth between twrp 2.3.3.0 and the most recent cwm. Mainly because of I could only send adb via twrp and I could only use adb shell with cwm, the nightmare is over!

Hello,
I recently rooted my one s (s4) using a noob friendly guide from another forum. It was excellently written and got me to root and superuser access in a short amount of time.
Unfortunately in my haste (and stupidity) when it came to flashing a rom on my phone i just choose the top link from the same tutorial, assuming it would be the most popular/recommended one. However unfortunately it was [ROM] CyanogenMod 10 - Official Nightlies. Which i think has screwed my phone, i am stuck in a boot loop with no apparent means to get out. So i tried to do a factory reset and recovery and have also tried to flash another rom onto it but with no success.
So i need to get back to stock, but im struggling to find the RUU file i need, (to be honest i don't really know what i'm looking for) and i was looking for some help and guidance in getting my phone back
thanking you in advance
Zapp
Hi, unless you are S-OFF none of the older T-Mob UK RUUs will work for you as you cannot flash an older RUU than your current version. And unless you have changed your CID from T-MOB005, there are no RUUs with the same version. So you will need to flash CM10 in recovery again, and flash the boot.img as well (in FASTBOOT USB mode straight after it) using the command
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Of course, the boot.img is in the CM10 zip file.
And I would recommend S-OFF'ing, or changing your CID. If a ROM really does get stuck, there will be no RUU for you and that is not a good thing.

Yes, if you didn't flash the boot.img separately then that's most definitely the problem.
MD5 isn't an issue. After you flash it, just make sure you flash the boot.img.

Hmm. It shouldn't do that.
You may want to wipe cache, dalvik cache and data in recovery. Then flash CM. Then flash the latest gapps for whichever Android version your CM is. E.g use a different gapps if you were flashing Android 4.2 than if you were flashing 4.1.
Then flash the boot.img in FASTBOOT USB.

I want to relock bootloader, flash ruu

I think this should work without messing up the phone and I should still have s-off right?

I've ran an RUU a couple times and still had S-off when it was done. It should not impact that at all.
Or you can skip all that and just flash the t mobile ROM in the dev section.
But, yeah, you will keep soff through the ruu

No need to relock bootloader if s-off. You should flash stock recovery so and use a CID according to your RUU file.
Stock recovery not needed.
Just ruu away
Verstuurd van mijn HTC One S met Tapatalk
Oooh
I also thought too you needed to re lock to flash a ruu.
I guess that is only if not s off then.
Just need to match cid though still.
SCID will work with any RUU. But you shouldn't use it if you insist to upgrade by OTA... Some people reported a brick this way.
Updating EU RUU from 2.31.401.5 to 3.16.401.8 (going from a CM10.1 version)
Well here is what I've done if it can help some. No warranty that it'll work for everyone, but let's go:
First thing : I've started with CM10.1, S-OFF, SuperCID (11111111) and TWRP 2.5.0.0
I DID NOT relock the bootloader and NOT put back the original Recovery
1) I've put back my original CID (EU Bouygues eg. HTC__203. You should put your original one). Fortunately, I had the original mmcblk0p4 file backup (just copy back the original file to /dev/block. See here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26516911#post26516911).
2) once my original CID has been put back (still S-OFF and TWRP and not relock), I've started in bootloader mode the RUU_Ville_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.31.401.5 and let things run
3) after the installation and reboot, I went to Parameters/Update/Check to force the JB update 3.16.401.8 download.
4) I've let the JB update to be performed (several reboot): all went fine. Going into fastboot, I'm still Unlocked / S-OFF / HTC__203 (original) / Radio 1.11.50 and HBOOT 2.15.000. Sounds good !
5) I went back into fastboot to re-flash the TWRP 2.5.0.0 (fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-ville.img)
6) I then reboot into Recovery : now TWRP is back ! In TWRP, try to reboot into bootloader. TWRP will warn you that you're not ROOT and suggest to install root on your phone. Hit YES.
7) Reboot normally your phone : you should have now a Super SU Installer icon in your apps. Open it, choose install via TWRP, and you're good to go! You've now the latest HTC JB sense version with root.
Optional :
-You can perform a full TWRP backup (with Sense/original CID) in case of further HTC update (?)
-You can put back your SuperCID if wanted
Now if you want to test the CM10.1-3.4 kernel here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2302248, it's booting fine (after full wipe)
VoilĂ !
Hope this helps
yeah
with the tmo model I can get the JB ruu right from HTC
I have just been having issues that I want to get stock and maybe root.
Will double check CID and just flash then.
I think hboot and radio on jb equivlent already but will try that.
Thank you
I wanted to post a little warning here, and relate what happened with my RUU update. First, I'm unlocked, s-off, Hboot 1.13.0000, superCID (11111111), running TWRP 2.5.0.0.
So I read somewhere that the latest RUU may not install correctly if on an older Hboot so I fastboot flashed the latest 2.15, no problems. Then I found a decrypted ROM that Hasoon2000 had posted thinking that this would give me the firmware I wanted, I believe this was based off of RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.16.401.8_Radio_1. 11.50.05.28_10.27.50.08L_release. I then Fastboot flashed: (I didn't relocking bootloader or changing CID but I did first flash stock recovery because I wasn't sure it I needed to or not)
1. fastboot erase cache
3. fastboot oem rebootRUU
4. fastboot flash zip "name of ROM".zip
The script ran and everything flashed successfully, so I reflashed TWRP 2.3.3.0 and the phone booted just like stock ROM. At this point I checked the Hboot and it was 2.04 something! with a 1.11?? radio. (So this told me I likely wouldn't have needed to first flash the 2.15 Hboot not sure about this tho) I then tried to restore my backed up SDcard and here is where I ran into problems. My SDcard/internal storage only had 48.6MB of space! Nothing I did would change it I worked with this for several hours last night before giving up and this morning I thought to try running a different Tmobile RUU. Found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250573 and downloaded this Firmware package: http://www.filedropper.com/firmware_1 and ran the same fastboot commands (changed recovery back to stock which I probably wouldn't have needed to do...??) and everything flashed perfectly (I needed to run the "fastboot flash zip firmware.zip" the second time, which is normal). I now have my SDcard back with Hboot 2.15, radio 1.13, superCID and s-off yet, "hopefully" am ready to flash the new 3.4 updated stuff!
I suspect the reason for my problems lay in my flashing a euro ROM/RUU, but I really don't know that for sure. This is just what happened to me. Hope this helps a bit!
i believe i have an issue that is too challenging for me. i flashed the lates trickdroid and for some reason i couldnt get my radio to show. my baseband version was unknown. i tried to flash a new radio tto no avail. finally i flashed the jb ruu and now the rom will work for a couple of minutes and then reboot still with unknow baseband radio version. im s off with super cid. any thing to help woul be appreciated.
Did you run the ruu exe or how did you flash it?

Have you tried the fastboot flash zip firmware.zip method? It's working great at updating firmware for all the AOSP ROMs.

is that the new method posten in the development section? i will try
ok, tried it and it didnt work. still shows no signal with an x ans reboots after a couple minutes
You can try the tmous jb one.
That might be better as not a downgrade.
Not sure about the eu one but that could be why the ics one is not working.

Interesting thought... Try a cm based ROM. They use a radio in a different system folder. If it still doesn't work, sounds more like a hardware failure.
Ok, so i got a problem. I wanted to return my phone to its stock, unrooted state so i could update to 4.1. Through the process, i installed a zip in recovery that installed but now my phone wont start. this was a stock JB rom title "JB_Crkt 2.04.1050.3_stock_odexed" but i didn't have JB installed i was till on stock 4.0.3 but rooted. I can get into fastboot and work from there but i cant boot into android, i just get a black screen after the 'HTC quietly brilliant' logo. I tried to install I am rooted and unlocked but with S-On. I hope that I just need to flash the stock ICS rom so i can get back to square one. do i need to turn s-off? if so, how do i do that without booting into android?
edit: i forgot to mention that my backup wont work ether. i think it became corrupt when i copied it to my compy.
I tried to install each of the zips below but none of them installed:
-JmzStockCricketSVDeodex.zip
-OTA_K2PLC_CL_ICS_40_Cricket_US_1.03.1050.7-1.03.1050.5_release_308166hdmxobmuj18gunis
-JmzStockK2UL_Deodex.zip
EDIT: SOLVED!!!!! Just needed to flash boot.img But now i have no service!!!

As you are S-On you have to flash the boot.img (from inside the rom.zip) over fastboot, after flashing the rom.
Did you do that?

Thanks so much for the reply!
I cant seem to find a rom.zip that works. Would you happen to know a link? Do i install rom.zip from recovery or do i flash it in fastboot.
EDit. Awesome I did as u said and it workded great. Now im running JB thanks a bunch
Ok so its up and working now but i dont get any service. I installed k2ul_JB_2.14.401.6_stock_odexed_03_06_13 and then flashed the boot.img inside.......should i revert back to ICS??
I think you need to grab the radio.img for your device and flash it via fastboot.

The ONLY Rom you should install is JB_Crkt 2.04.1050.3_stock_odexed.zip, because this is made from stock cricket files.
I'm not sure if it helps to install this or ICS.
Maybe radio.img helps but you need to be S-off to flash this.
Oops my eyes tricked me, I thought I read soff
