Downgrade H-BOOT after S-OFF - any takers so far? - HTC One S

Has anyone tried to downgrade the H-BOOT ofter S-OFFing?
I mean, did anyone with say H-BOOT 2.15 try to do someting like this for example:
Code:
fastboot flash hboot hboot_1.13.0000_signedbyaa.nb0
Is that possible or am I going to brick my One S?

I downgraded by flashing an hboot zip through my recovery. It doesn't really make a difference since we are s-off though.

Is there anyway to flash a new hboot in recovery? Say 2.15? And if so is there a tut on how to? I'm currently on 1.14.0003

Look in boot splash thread in themes. Its has different hboot zips.

If you have new hboot (2.00.002) and you are S-OFF, it means your phone has hardware S-OFF, using XTC clip. You don't have to unlock it. You can do right about everything with your phone without unlocking it.
So why is this

Try 'fastboot oem unlock'
Some first gen phone's were s-off to start with. Don't quote me on that, I'm guessing.

Because s-off/s-on and locked/unlocked are 2 different things. Trust me being s-off'ed by xtc clip is more then enough, you can install anything you want. I have a phone like that. Don't unlock, there is no need for that. You can flash any RUU if you want so and still stay s-off and then flash any custom rom, and then RUU again... I've done that all more then once.

Since your phone already is s-off,
You can root it now using a tool like superoneclick or something else.

Agree with the above.
What I personaly did is installed latest RUU 2.10.401.9 just to have the latest hboot and radio (since I have xtc clip s-off, I stayed s-off). Then rooted it with one click tool, flashed latest 4ext recovery and installed my favorite custom rom.

Are you kidding?? Already told you.
If it's already s-off, root it with superoneclick, install recovery like 4ext or cwm, backup everything and flash roms like it's going crazy.
Search the forums, it's written a hundret times everywhere!#!

Dude, you know, I'm not gonna do the simple search work for you. I tried to help you but I have other things to do aswell. If you're not able to find the mentioned stuff by yourself, you should probably not play around with your device...

Maybe you will not lost S-off, but even if you lost it, you can repeat s-off steps as u did before.
But what I'm sure about you have to root it again and lost OTA update

yeah that's the same setup as mine and no go as of right now.. just bootloop city with not logcats available..
I need some newer hboots
I have 2.15 but I'm not S-Off or SuperCID yet (although that will probably have changed by tomorrow). If you post a download link I may get round to giving it a shot once I've S-Offed and SuperCID'd tomorrow.

I have stock rom. But its rooted.Supercid is 11111111 and S-OFF.I unrooted it using the unroot option in the superuser.But i need the stock recovery so that i can get the ota update.
All you need to do is run the appropriate RUU for your phone. Look in the resource thread that is a sticky in the Android Development section, you'll find links there.

While it's easier just to RUU, it is also possible to extract the recovery image from an OTA zip file.

He wants the stock recovery so he can update via the ota. I figured less work to just run the ruu.

I agree. I just like throwing in alternative solutions for learning purposes. Ruuing is certainly the easiest
