Thanks.
Try to update firmware, I had that problem previously and firmware updating helped me. I can't find it now, but I found it in this forum and flashed it with recovery.

from what I've read the firmware upgrade needs s-off. were you s-off?
Ur s-on so before flashing ull hve to enable smartflash in 4ext recovrey
Boot into recovery then go into tools scroll down n enable smartflash on ..... Thn install rom from zip
hit thanks if I hve hlped you

The problem is he is s-on and can't just flash firmware
He needs to be s-off
But in his current state he can optain s-off easily cause you have hboot 1.17 using revolutionary .io
But in order to do that you need stock Rom I think
It's easy just search for it
But in my state with hboot 1.27 it's difficult -.- I don't want to risk and break my phone with junpunitbear

And this is the second solution for you
1. Relock your bootloader and flash ruu over it , it's easy (flash the latest ruu with ics and your firmware will update automatically)
2. After finishing installing ruu unlock you bootloader and flash 4ext recovery
3. Flash you custom Rom over 4ext with smartflash enabled and all is done
But keep in mind using this method is difficult to gain s-off again

Hi all,
I just got a new Desire S curtisy of O2 in the uk and noticed the HBOOT of 2.00.0002 which is not listed by the Revolutionary 0.4Pre4.
I was just wondering if there was another way or unless im missing somehing obvious.
Thanks in advance
You need to downgrade and then use revolutionary.

Cheers mate, Just found it :/
Man, these capcha's are SO annoying. WHy the hell on every post someone does? It's just annoying!
ANyways, Back on topic, I'm trying download HTCDEV for 'all other supported phones' from here:
http://htcdev.com/bootloader/
The problem is, It doesnt download. ANd when i change it to another option it still does sweet FA.
Is there anywhere else download this, Specificully, the all other phones option?
THanks for help and heres to the next annoying captcha
EDIT: A reboot sorted that problem out. Weird, but fixed
Well, I followed this guide:

Its gone from locked to unlocked but isnt it meant to say S-OFF, not S-ON?
THe main problem though is i've loaded REAPER 2.2 Mod with the 2.21 upgrade but it seems to get stuck on a boot loop while booting up
Any idea's?
SOrry for noob questions, I've never done this myself as i got a friend to do it before. ANd thanks for the help
Dude, you have just unlocked the boot loader.
HTC dev unlock process will not give you S-off, also can cause some warranty issues (don't be disheartened)
Now you need to download a custom recovery and flash it via fastboot.
I would recommend 4ext touch.
Then flash any custom ROM. The guide should have all the details.

I've done that, i used 4EXT_Recovery_v2.2.7_RC5.zip and thats ok. I cleared caches, Changed from 3EXT to 4EXT and then installed REAPER 2.2 then used update 2.2.1 over the top.
So i have 4EXT Recovery installed! I installed the ROM (off SDCARD) with this program and when i reboot it goes into a Boot Loop graphic and stays there.
4EXT Recovery Touch is just a touchscreen version of the one i used no?

I tried htcdev but my rom version is 2.10.401.8 and not listed on there
Is it now possible to S-OFF a Desire S since the revolutionary site is no longer active ? I can unlock the bootloader via HTCDEV but I'd like to get S-OFF if possible ?

Maybe a slightly naive question......but I obviously need to downgrade my HBOOT to achieve S-OFF on the phone via the Rev method.
Can I restore my HBOOT version back to 2.00.0002 without running another RUU through it or is there another method.
My MIUI ROM works OK under 2.00.0002 should expect problems if it it runs under an earlier version ?
Yesterday i have s-offed my phone and after s-offing i have installed clockworkmod recovery,after that i have updated its h-boot but i think i have flashed wrong h-boot image my phone is bootlooping again and again on white htc screen.

Have you tried reset to the default factory, or just RUU with the right version it will overwrite all. [ROM]Shipped Pyramid ROM Collection
Try removing the memcard so that it won't try to load up the new firmware again.

So you haven't yet flashed a rom - you have s-off, stock rom? If so you just need to flash the correct firmware for the rom.

Your help is most appreciated!
If you have superwiped but have not yet flashed a ROM then of course your phone won't boot up since there is nothing to boot. Your phone is already S-OFF. Which ROM are you trying to flash? Depending on the ROM you may need to update your firmware.
Based on your radio and hboot we can say that your firmware is bit old gb firmware .as Hboot is old but you are soff and unlocked by revolutionary so thats fine.
First of all get your cid
Fastboot getvar cid
If it is supercid 11111111 then you can flash any stock Rom otherwise you need to get the corrsponding Rom for your device.
So if you want ics
update the firmware from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
Then you can flash any custom Rom.
I advise you to supercid just in case to prevent bootloops

The ROM I'm looking forward to having is OpenSensation/Cyanogenmod 9/ICS.
Do I need to update the firmware? If so, how and to which one?

Ok, I have Supercid 11111111 on the phone now.
For my Rom, I want OpenSensation/Cyanogenmod 9/ICS.
Per your link, I should update my firmware to -

Yes that is correct. Flash your new firmware then go back and flash your new rom. Should work peachy keen. Would also recommend using 4ext recovery instead of CWM. More of the custom ROM's for the Sensation require it because of it's interactive installer.

hi
i have a sensation xe.
i s off"d it with revolutionary tool before ics update.
now i am thinking of flashing ordroid 9.0.0
i just want to ask whether it is okay to proceed with flashing a custom recovery and then the rom or are there any extra steps i must take??
S off is security off if you do not s off you will have to flash rooms differently and you will not have as much freedom. Its best to s off in my onion if possible. Do search read guide about how to s off. I am rooted and s off and it makes flashing really easy in my opnion.
So go ahead and s off. Before you flash rom make sure and have correct firmware for the rom. Ics takes 3.32 firmware. Gingerbread roms take a different firmware. I use mostly ics or 4.0.3 roms so I use 3.32 firmware. This is the one you will need also for the ics rom. You can find the firmware in Android development. So s off get your firmware then you should be able to flash your rom. Best of luck and hope this helps
Sent from my Sensation using xda premium
well, if you're already S-OFF and all is good, go ahead and flash a custom recovery of course, either CWM or 4EXT...then as realsis mentioned, you'll need a 3.32 firmware for ICS. if you're already SuperCID, go to the relative thread and download the first one you find. follow the flashing instructions and all will be good.
also, you will need to super wipe before flashing a new sense 4 ROM.
that said, please backup your original ROM before flashing a custom ROM.

Hi,
Since you are s-off via Revolutionary,you should be fine to flash custom recovery and custom ROM.
Does it still say "Revolutionary" in your hboot ,after your OTA update?
Don't forget your firmware! Very important OK. 3.32 for ICS roms. Best wishes happy flashing!

since you have 1.18 hboot version(gingerbread firmware) you should have done revolutionay.io method to S-OFF
http://revolutionary.io/
S-OFF in your situation is very easy
but you must have a working device
so flash this gb rom from recovery
http://d-h.st/bqL
i suggest to use 4ext recovery since you are on S-ON
before flashing the rom enable smartflash from 4ext

it doesn't matter what was you stock rom
you can flash any rom in sensation/xe/4G devices
by the way unfortunately there in no orange uk ruu with your firmware
exists only one with a lower firmware than yours but you can't use it because you are on S-ON(S-ON devices can't downgrade)
so your options are limited
