Hi, I am trying to S-ON my HTC Sensation again.
I have run a stock ruu.exe, and changed the hboot to 1.27.0000
The device is unrooted by that if I am right.
If I follow step 5 from this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 ) via the fastboot oem writesecureflag 3 way, when the bootloader reloads, it stays S-OFF
I have tried a lot, and I hope somebody knows whats wrong.
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
... OKAY
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>fastboot reboot-bootloader
rebooting into bootloader... OKAY
It says Locked
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
I have now tried another RUU.exe and tried another way by getting rom.zip and making this PG58IMG.zip, but it still won't S-ON
HBOOT- 1.17.0008
RADIO- 10.11.9007.15_M

Check the cid.. If it is supercid then SON command might not work
So change back to original cid of the phone
Then try SON
Another thing is.. The locked/unlocked status is available from 1.18 hboot only so it normal that 1.17 hboot doesn't show anything

is the phone locked to vodafone netherlands ? then the cid you mentioned is fine
but the RUU cid is saying its HTC_E11 so try that ...
also after changing the cid
do a fastboot reboot-bootloader then verify the cid ..it should change
EDIT: earlier cid change worked fine (check it now it will change )..btw make sure that RUU cid and the cid you are giving is fine and proper one ..then only do SON

there is a work around ..but for that you need to root your device again ..install busybox (ginger bread or ics both will do )
then give me the outputs of these terminal commands

[Q][SOLVED] S-OFF questions and help, please!

OK, so, I really didn't want to ask, because I feel like this has probably already been covered, but I have searched and haven't found anything, and now I am stuck, so ask I shall. Anyway, I have a Rogers One X, and I want to get S-OFF. Now, in the S-OFF thread, it says I need supercid. So, I checked the cid on my phone, and it is ROGER001, not the 11111111 that I want, right? So, my question now is, how do I get supercid? I have tried the X-Factor exploit, but that didn't help, it failed on the 'adb shell "/data/local/tmp/pwn"' line. I don't want to try flashing the S-OFF without supercid first because it specifically says not to do that in the S-OFF thread. So, that is my problem, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Oh, not sure if it matters, but according to my bootloader, I have HBOOT 1.11.0000.
PS: Side question: What exactly will S-OFF do for me? According to other stuff I have read, I will be able to flash stuff like radios, splash screens and boot.img without using fastboot, but I can already do all that without fastboot, so what is the point of S-OFF?
Thanks in advance!
Re: [Q] S-OFF questions and help, please!

To your other question. You answered it for yourself.

Thanks for the quick reply. I just tried what you said, using "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" but it fails with this message:
Code:
(bootloader) elite_init_sd, SD card already power on
(bootloader) sdhw_7xxx_open: id=0

(bootloader) 902910 902E20
FAILED (status read failed (No such file or directory))
finished. total time: 1.261s
and then the phone freezes up and I have to hard reboot it. When I check the cid again it is still ROGER001. I am doing this all from the bootloader, I am assuming that is correct?
Re: [Q] S-OFF questions and help, please!
Do steps 1-11 here to get supercid. I did this on a rogers and a telus one x no problem.

Oh and the only benefit to s-off for you is to remove the red text from the splash screen and possible future benefits such as dual booting or free SIM unlock.

[Q] HBOOT 2.14 and CM10.1

I've just had my Telstra phone replaced due to the screen smashing on the first one.
I rooted through HTC Dev, installed TWRP on it, and flashed CM. Then to my horror realised the touchscreen didn't work.
read back through and found out that the touchscreen doesn't work with CM on 2.14.
I've installed another sense ROM on it, but want to go back to a stock CM.
This is the point I'm reaching confusion, I realise I need to downgrade my hboot - but how do I go about that?
I tried somewhere to gain SuperCID, so that I can get S-OFF ... but I can't seem to get SuperCID to work...
Any suggestions on where to start - or for that matter if there is anything I can do at all even?
You need supercid to s-off. You don't need to downgrade hboot, just your touchscreen firmware.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159863
You may have to hex-edit your CID after unlocking.
And I need both SuperCID and S-OFF to downgrade the touchscreen firmware though?
Is there another thread with procedures to get SuperCID?

2) follow soff instructions in that thread.
3) follow touchscreen downgrade instructions from sticky in original development.
Or simply:
1) research on xda and find all the above yourself
I stupidly took the stock jb update from HTC, so could only use aosp recently after all the above was released.

Ok Tim... So what do I do to get 2.20 on the phone, stock...
If you're wanting to run the at&t RUU you'll also need the at&t CID. Otherwise you need to run the RUU that corresponds with the HTC__621 CID. Why is it the 2.20 in particular that you want?
Sent from my Evita
Im not stuck on 2.20. I just want the phone back to stock.
Ok, so then you need to run an RUU that's compatible with the CID you have, and it can't be a backyard update.

Well, that is my question... What RUU is compatible with my CID? And can I change the CID to work for an AT&T RUU, because it seems like 621 is a tawian RUU. If I can, what do I need to change the CID too?
Did you change the CID to HTC__621? It doesn't look like an Evita CID.

No, when I got the phone a while ago, I rooted and superCID'ed it. It was changed to 1111111, but now for some reason it has changed to 621, which I dont quite understand and has caused quite an issue for me trying to go back to stock.
The CID can't just change by itself, that doesn't make any sense. Are you certain that you were successful in getting SuperCID when you rooted the phone?

I bought the phone in San Antonio at an AT&T store.... Way back when the phone just came out...
At that point, after XDA had root and SuperCID, I did those... And put CM10 on it... Through many upgrades and tinkering, somehow the phone got the CID 621. An Asian CID, I did NOT do this.
Regardless, it is fixed now. I followed the instructions in this thread to change the CID back to 1111111. It worked, then what I did was push the recovery and boot from 2.20 to the phone, then re-locked it.
At this point, I ran the 2.20 RUU and it took... Then I ran the 3.18 phone and now... QHSUSB_DLOAD

Yep. S-on + SuperCID + jb RUU = brick. So you'll need a jtag repair. It's worth tying the unbrick method but nine times out of ten it doesn't work.

[HELP] Messed up with HBOOT. Fail-PU

UPDATE: Phone is in QHSUSB_DLOAD mode. I've tried HTC Unbricking Project but it didn't detect my phone. Also I've tired the Ultimate Recovery tool Unbrick and it also didn't help.
I guess the only solution is JTAG / New phone.
Hello,
I think I'm in a real big trouble.
background story:
I was on ARHD 7.3, S-off, Firmware 3.33 Uni. Suddenly after about a month of use, phone started to lose signal. I could recover the signal only with a reboot (hidden menu options and airplane mode didn't help).
I thought it was a problem with the ROM so I've installed an Official RUU RUU_PYRAMID_LE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.33.401.153 after installing 3.33.401.x firmware. This didn't solve the problem I had, signal still was going off few times a day and each time I had to reboot. Furthermore, I've lost my IMEI Number, I got a new IMEI number 355195000000017 which I googled and found more people with that number. However the IMEI change didn't interrupt anything.
Realizing that RUU didn't help I've decided to go back to Mike's ROM ARHD 7.3. (after unlocking bootloader again and etc..)
Then the problem started:
com.google.process.gapps and acore.process.android and basically all the phone started to crash. Nothing helped, I've tried to reflash ROM, reflash Google Package, Nothing. Suddenly, the phone was bricked. won't charge, won't boot.
However a very strange thing happened. Suddenly I could boot Into HBOOT (maybe the phone didn't had enough battery power before).
But the HBOOT was getting stuck, I couldn't do anything So I've used the Ultimate Recovery Tool and downgraded my HBOOT. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1653777)
The Problem now:
1. I can go to 4EXT recovery but it won't let me flash any ROM, installing is aborted.
2. HBOOT won't let me flash any recovery, boot, etc saying permission denined.
3. Rebooting bootloader doesn't work, it goes just to a black screen with backlight on.
4. I've tried to change firmware with PG58IMG it won't update saying hboot partition update failed failed-pu
5.I've tried to install the previous RUU @fastboot but it says battery power below 30%. I've checked the voltage it was around 3800~ and in the recovery it had like 50% so I don;t think problem lies here.
Information about HBOOT:
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.49.0007 <--- Bad Bad HBOOT, I know I did a mistake here. This Hboot is for Evo 3D GSM.
RADIO-11.24.3504.31_M
OPENDSP- BLAH BLAH BLAH
eMMC-boot
I don't think I have SuperCID. when I type the command fastboot getvar cid and getvar all I see the CID number is 0418.
However, when I type fastboot oem readcid I get 11111111.
I've tried to change to superCID but again, permission denined.
I'm thinking maybe if I could somehow change the superCID then I could update the firmware and then I could run the RUU?
Or can I somehow via linux box flash a different HBOOT?
Thank everyone who read this long story
I would be truly grateful for anyone who tries to help me.

failed-pu
man is a serious problem AFAIK
did you try to reflash ruu.exe or install 3.33 universal firmware again?
did they show you failed-pu again?
edit: what hboot version is that?
edit 2: why did you use a tool from htc evo 3D forum?
since you are on S-OFF and supercid you could use any ruu.exe you wanted including GB's one
that would take care also of your hboot version(gingerbread ruu->hboot downgrade)
Thanks for your reply,

Yes, Flashing RUU still giving me the below 30% battery (I've charged all night).
And Installing Firmware 3.33 gives me fail-pu

Idk, I saw ultimate Recovery tool, thought it would help since nothing worked..
I do have S-Off but I don't have SuperCID (my CID num is very strange only 4 digits now).

Thanks for trying! My phone doesn't boot or charge at all now. I guess JTAG it is.

I did. My phone's in a QHSUSB_DLOAD mode but it doesn't get detected by the Unbricked project script. I saw other people had the same problem and Dexter advised them to JTAG.
