Hello, I have now after when I flashing new official ROM on my HTC Desire S. When I put GiffGaffSIM card my phone say: Your SIM card does not allow a connection to this network" I trying input APN settings,useWi-Fi from PlayMarket download GiffGaff APN,but no chance.I take another sim card Virgin mobile...now I have acces to internet,but I can't make a call.And sometimes when I changesim card my phone says: No sim card.After I Restart my phone or switch OFF and ON again he see the SIM card . Maybe I need flashing again ROM? ButI don'tknow.
Did you do a clean flash? If not use this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1257731
I think so NO, because i did it first time in my life , when and why i did this, been problem with touch screen,i think after that my screen start working,but no resolve this. I replace him a new display with digitizer. Now all is fine,but only i have problems with SIM card how i write above,i looking answers on another HTC forum and somebody adviced me flash again with this ROM: RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_219480_signed
i have this ROM in my phone now,and the boot menu looks:
***LOCKED***
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT -2.00.0002
RADIO-3822.10.08.04_M
eMMC-boot
I can with this current condition flash again with official ROM?
if i flash with custom ROM i must to do some changes in my phone?
To be able to flash custom roms you now have an option of either:
1. Unlocking your bootloader via HTCDev and installing a custom recovery
2. Downgrade HBoot using one of these guides http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318919 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399331 and then going s-off using Revolutionary
I would advise the second option because it's easier and more reliable.
Next time search or check the development index and stickied threads before asking basic questions. Guides to rooting and rom flashing is easily accessible in the forum :good:

Hello. First of all i am sorry if my questions are answered somewhere in this forum, but i have read a lot of threads and your wiki page, but i am still pretty much confused.
I'm trying to explain to myself the boot process of an Android device and the most important thing i want to ask is: are all these so called "roms" (the OS rom, the ExtROM, radio/gsm rom) on the read only memory (ROM) of the phone?
I know that the boot rom is hardwired in the CPU of the phone and when the phone is turned on this hardwired boot rom points to the first stage of the boot loader (which is a program like grub or syslinux?).
I'm going to buy a HTC Wildfire probably from Vodafone UK and as far as i know it's gonna be with their own version of Android. So i assume that the phone will be CID locked and SIM locked. Can i flash the phone using RUU WWE rom from shipped-roms.com ( is this a trusted site? ) without trying to CID unlock it? I haven't read much about CID unlocking so forgive me.
If i flash it with new RUU WWE froyo + radio rom from the web site mentioned will i have to SIM unlock it after?
If i make my phone s-off and then flash it with shipped rom which updates the radio as well will it become s-on again since i've read somewhere that the security modules like this s-on/off reside in the radio rom?
Will i need Gold Card and what is it for?
Hello forum, this is my first post. I'm no pro and this is my 2nd android. my uncle brought it from UK to Bangladesh. may be it was in contract with Vodafone because I see a Vodafone splash screen and some Vodafone apps in application manager. I don't like them as because I'm not using Vodafone here. now can anyone please give some links where I can find way to install fresh OS without Vodafone (may be you call it unbranded RUU). I prefer Indian RUU to get local font support. I'll be very glad if someone answers. my "Volume down+Power button"
menu shows following:

If you're not worried about warranty, I would strongly recommend a custom ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1146601
Use this to help you, it contains many guides and ask any questions if you need to.
However, if you do want to flash a RUU, here are a list of RUU's. I can see one for HTC India there.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1002506
Also I believe you would need to create a goldcard to flash an unbranded RUU for HTC India. Here is a good guide from Paul O Brien

thank you.
about the 1st link:I'll install custom Rom after a few days because I'm still enjoying the shiny sense 3.0.
about the 2nd link:I've seen that sticky post but couldn't download Asia_India so I downloaded Asia_WWE. but the thing is what is the process. do I have to revolutionary s-off or root my phone? and most importantly will I get the official OTA updates after flashing the stock Rom? I'm more interested about flashing stock Rom. so if you please give the procedure.
about the 3rd link:I'll creat a goldcard ASAP.
With the goldcard use mmc2 not mmc1 as the guide suggested. I.e. change the 1 to a 2 in the adb command.
If you want to get ota's you have to be stock, if you attempted down the line to install an ota on a rooted/altered phone its your own stupidity to blame, and many have done it.
Good stuff on making the goldcard, can't stress it enough how important it can be especially for novices.

You don't need S-OFF or root to flash a RUU. However, it doesn't matter if you do either.
The RUU is an .exe file so run it on your computer and it becomes pretty self explanatory. Also thanks to fox2delta for clarifying that.

as per dan-fish's post I don't need rooting for installing stock ROM. will i get the OTAs if I do it without rooting? I know I'm being too much conservative,but as I'm out of warranty so I want to be sure before taking the step.

thanks for confirming that I don't need s-off and rooting.my boot menu shows ***LOCKED***. do I need to make it UNLOCKED? if yes then which method? I've seen some alternative way other than HTCDev. as I'm not in warranty,will you suggest to do it from HTCDev?
and btw,same question to you too,if I install stock ROM without rooting then will I get OTA?

If you're using the RUU then you should get OTA's and you'll want to keep your bootloader locked.
You can also go down the custom ROM road but i'm not sure about functionality with indian font.
Hi all,
I have tired to flash the new Rom yesterday and during checking the signature device reboot and installer said that it can not proceed.
After reboot phone goes directly into fastboot and gives ***Locked*** with Security Warning massage. I have tried different RUU but it is exactly the same.
Installation is failing on the checking signature.
I have tried Unrevoked3 but it is not able to find the device. Could you please let me know how to do it?

LE: hope it works now, if not search the forum, the link reffers to the search results.
You will certainly get the answer there.
Link does not work:
Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.
I have tried to find an answer but no luck so far, I am quite new to this. Is there anyone who can point me in the right direction?
Another solution is to try the RUU 2.10.401.8
I had some problems with the same Ruu, but not with the signature, and the previous version worked flawlesly.
What's your CID?
Sent from my HTC Desire S
I have tried few others RUU and every single of them is falling during the installation.
ok I manage to unlock the device finally
But again it is falling during the installation of a new ROM. Do I have to revert back Hboot to 0.98 before installation? if so how to do it?
So the RUU that I recommended completed successfully?
What do you want to do next?
Now you are S-ON, if you want to install custom roms you have to unlock your bootloader with the htcdev method(you will lose your warranty and need to flag manually the boot file) or to downgrade.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Tab
I want to downgrade the phone to orginal ROM T-mobile uk. So I could take off the simlock, I have put the unlocking code yesterday but nothing happens. I was advised to downgrade the rom and should be ok.
Could some help me out with my problem please when ever I am trying to upload new rom it is stuck on signature verification.
I will quote Enigmaamit as he said it better than me:

SIM unlock and bootloader unlock are two completely different things.

The only way to SIM-unlock your phone yourself is a XTC clip... better ask your phone operator.
I know the diffrance between those two, I have ordered unlocking code. After putting this into device when ever I put into new sim card it stoped nofifing me about it. But it is not able to find a new network. Below what I have receive form operator:
"It said "Successful" but nothing has happened
Darren
posted this on Apr 11 16:22
This has happened to a handful of customers who have all had one thing in common - the phones have been "rooted".
By rooting a handset the owner has removed some of the restrictions on the phone, which allows the owner to install whichever software of the phone that they wish. Unfortunately this has caused some issues when an unlock code has been entered.
It is easily rectified by reinstalling the original operating system that the phone was supplied with, then applying the unlock code and the phone should be unlocked, truly, successfully.
You can then reinstall the software you had on the phone before attempting the unlock and continue using the phone as you wish."
So that is the reason why I am trying to revert any changes.
i for one don't believe this
So their replay is bull**** in that case?
In my opinion yes(i can't say that i am a very experienced user) but i like to think i know some stuff about this.
I can't imagine what custom rom/Ruu version/app will "block" you to sim unlock your phone.
The only restrictions may be made by the phone manufacturer.
So i will try through HTC Clip in that case. But why I can upload any new RUU?
like i said earlier, i had some problems to with the 2.10.401.9 ruu.
Try the 2.10.401.8 it should work, if your phone is branded try a gold card.
Hi Everyone,
knowing it's all out there, just need to read (a lot), please help me finding the correct way to solve my problem. I can not change to other ROM, mostly due to lack of knowledge. Please before you judge and claim I should read and learn, i have kids who don't allow me read things properly, and there are tons of information out there, seems simplier to ask for directions this time, based on the situation of the phone.
This is the first custom rom I tried on my new S4 HTC One S (not brand new, just new to me). It was stock rom, locked. Followed instructions on different threads, I unlocked the phone, flashed TWRP recovery, installed SuperSU, copied Venom Rom zip to SD card and installed from recovery, with the aroma. Success. Before installation I did a backup in TWRP.
I very much like the rom (though have 2 issues: 1. phone reboots randomly without any notification. 2 phone loses carrier randomly, so I see no GSM connection as if SIM was removed. This happens when phone is untouched so no way SIM is loosy or something). When I try to chose carrier manually from settings, it sais no SIM card is installed...
But I would like to try other roms as well, and also wish to compare some stock roms. So I downloaded a generic HTC Europe stock RUU, hoping I can easily flash it. Relocked the phone, ran the RUU.exe with Fastboot USB mode in bootloader, but it all came up with error messages and left me at the HTC logo. All I can do is to re-install Venom 3.0.0 from recovery, that works, otherwise I end up in boot loop.
Also I can not go back to the original state using the backup from TWRP. It installs boots but it basicaly freezes before the phone setup comes. I can see the background image, the clock and the GSM antenna sign, but thats all, nothing else happens, no matter how hard I try to reboot.

When I re-locked the phone it said Tampered + Relocked + Security Warning
As recovery I have TWRP 2.6.0.0 flashed. I did nothing else.
Could someone help me with instructions or at least directions how I could go back to a nice stock RUU? With the one I downloaded i had different error codes 213 (wrong ID) and 255 Unkown error.
I believe as the phone is not S-OFF and/or Super CID, it is relevant which RUU I download. The phone used to boot with a voda logo, so I believe it was one of the UK or AT voda stock roms, but neither works.
Your opinion/feedback is highly appreciated.
Cheers,

To go back to stock u have to flash the right RUU, depends on which CID ur phone got.
u can download it here: http://www.androidruu.com/?developer=Ville
If u downloaded the right RUU, boot ur HOS into fastboot relock the phone and start the RUU.
Let it finish and u r on stock
Hi Homeboy, thanks for the answer. Seems clear. I have only 1 question. How can I make sure which is the right RUU?
I believe I should do a getvar all command, to see the CID id? Then what shall I look at the RUU's filename?
And after the phone having been relocked, shall it be in fatboot USB in bootloader or shall the phone be up and running when I start the RUU.exe from the computer?
thanks
