Having too many problems trying to root my inspire! Wishing it was as easy as rooting my G1!
1. I have been trying to root all day! Endless googling and xda-ing.. Gah! Using attn1 hack kit v11a.
2. Made my gold card, but downgrading is the problem! Keeps showing me "Failed to set prot mask (Inappropriate ioctl for device)." then "Error opening input file." and then /dev/block/mmcblk1: cannot open for write: Permission denied.
3. Was able to downgrade once to the 2.37 downgrade. Seems like an upgrade since I have Android 2.3.3 but I still have S-on and for some reason it registers under Japan with this =softbank so no HSPA Data or 3G. Downgrading leads to error message "Main Version is older! Update Fail!"
4. Hope someone can help me asap! I just want to be able to root! If not, at least return to stock.. Please help!
PS Sorry if this a violation in a rule or something.. first time asking for help!
I'd suggest that you jump into ATTN1's IRC channel where you can get some real-time help with this:
http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#liberatedAria
Would you know what =soft bank is? That's what pops up when I try to boot, then Android logo. Seems like my phone is japanese or something.
According to the hack kit instructions, the "main version is older-update fail" error is a downgrade failure and the recommedation is to check setup. Make sure you have good usb drivers with HTC Sync and any antivirus and malware programs unistalled or fully disabled. Also, make sure your Microsoft .NET and Java is up to date, assumming you are using Windows.

I tried talking to attn1 and others to help, but apparently I flashed the Japanese version of gingerbread. Attn1 said I was screwed unless I used some sort of device to manually to flash the downgrade. But I did some searching to see if I could downgrade it myself and found a thread that worked! Running Coredroid and its amazing!

Good. Unfortunate choice of a first ROM to flash, but can see how it could happen. Awesome that you were able to recover.

That's awesome. Great work on your part. Excellent example of solving a problem. Heck, if you managed to prove Attn1 wrong, that's an achievement, he's the man as far as this stuff, so take that as a compliment, because it is.

Wtf?
Then u select "y" what's the problem?
aren't i supposed to install cwm manually?
Ummmm, u can after, the newer version...
i followed the noob guide found in the dev section (its stickied) and it says to install cwm manually. reason is because revolutionary installs an older version of cwm which has problems charging the phone when the phone is turnned off which might be a problem if you let the battery die and cant charge it. just search for the latest version of cwm and install that
Let it flash the old version then manually flash the new one. Makes no difference
No problem at all.... I had this problem where it always showed the communication error but still it did the S OFF thing for me...
I had exactly the same secnario, I did it three times and it still showed the communication error but s-off showed up so i manually installed CWM, all was fine. Must say I shat my pants though when it said communication error, I thought I was about to brick it

well i only mentioned to install it manually cause i think its kinda redundant to instal an old version of cwm than install a newer version of cwm right after. why not just skip that step entirely and manually instal cwm. its just my two cents. either way both of us are right
Suppose it's all down to personal preference at the end of the day
Hi there,
First post here, so: hello! Nice to be here....
I will try to tell you the problem in as little words as possible and sum it up ;-)
I rooted my Incredible S (Europe (Netherlands), Provider: Telfort) with 'Revolutionary' to make my Japanese sim work. All ok, except I couldn't use internet. Useless for me...
Now I wanted to unroot my phone again via a manual on 'theunlockr. But I got stuck when trying to flash the stock bootloader. Got this message in the cmd:
C:\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb shell /data/local/psneuter
Failed to set prot mask (Inappropriate ioctl for device)
Searched for an answer a long time and tried several things.. Nothing worked and some things were just beyond my knowledge.
Now I installed a new ROM on my phone, because I didn't knew in what state my phone was, after trying all kind of things.. I used this one:
RUU_VIVO_SENSE30_S_HTC_WWE_3.08.405.3_Radio_20.4802.30.0822U_3822.10.08.28_M_release_227170_signed
Problem: My phone doesn't start anymore. It is stuck on the white screen with HTC logo. I searched and viewed all the treads on this problem, but with no result. I went into Hboot and tried 'Recovery' and 'factory reset' with no succes. And I cannot access the phone via cmd to run a recovery file. SDK is intalled on my computer with the 'Goolgle usb driver package' installed.
Can someone please help me? I'm obvious a noob in this! And all the information on the internet about this subject is overwelming me. I just want to reset my whole phone!
Many thanks!!

Hi Guy's and Gall's
For some reason I can't get my HTC sensation to S-off, I am not new to android or rooting Android phones ( Huwei pulse , HTC wildfire , Htc disire HD, samsung NC110 on 2.3 duel boot with wifi) But this one has got me stuck
I have searched and searched on the net for other solutions/fix's and just find the same methods and no solution.
This is where it all stops every time! ( straight of the bat basically )

Lucky for you I found this same problem yesterday and figured it out lol.
Hope this works......
1) Get to the part where you have to enter in the beta key but don't hit enter yet.
2) On your phone go to settings/connect to PC/Charge only
3) On your phone again go to settings/applications/development/USB debugging and check the box.
4) Hit enter on your computer and see what happens.

make sure you have all your drivers installed. if needed go to your start tab on your computer, right click on computer, device manager & search for the device and make sure it's installed all drivers completely by right clicking and pressing update driver.
sorry if this is known information already, but Hope this helps

Thank you for your help.
Thanks Guy's for you help so far,
I have tride most of your sugestions and I re-installed the htc driver and ADB/fastboot last night.
Then I thought I would do yet another factory reset..... and have another go, But I got a surprise oem recovery is dead??? and so is the factory reset??? both give me a white HTC screen, and this lasts for 1 hour or forever or till I remove the battery. I had not noticed this before.
After I pull the battery the phone will reboot and work as normal. so not bricked yet
Do I now need to re install recovery or ???
Help is much appreciated as I would like to get the thing S-Off before the ICS OTA update arrives, Tho I will probably not get the update till I fix the recovery issue.
For you followers, I have just ( finally )received the OTA update to ICS It is installing as I type.
My location is the south of Holland, My phone is the sensation and network provider is T-Mobile NL.
Just thought I should let you know.
Now once this is installed I will start reading about getting the phone rooted.
Final Solution
Go for Tacoroot method..it works...dont worry abt bricking and all..
search tacoroot method...(tricky process)it gives temporary root access...
then do Revolutionary S-off...it definitely works...
Install 4ext recovery
install Superuser...
install suitable firmware
insatall rom...
You might go into bootloops but dont panic...installing ROM will take care of that..
Ping me for any doubts...INDIA
Go ahead and ROOT...life becomes Awesome after that...
HTC Sensation XE Beats audio..

if you wnat to enjoy custom roms and all dont do OTA ICS update
as it will update your bootloader to 1.27 with S-ON
and there is currently no solution/tool to S-OFF with H-BOOT 1.27
so i strongly advise you to stay out of it
for your previous HBOOT (i presume its 1.18) there is solution..
you need to use tacoroot to do a temp-root then follow the revolutionary
there is a guide for that
search for it

hi everyone
i havebeen struggling with this for 2 years now. i have HTC sensation with hboot 1.18.xxxx that i bought in 2011. after the first year i have been keen to move to a newer rom. i have tried to look up inf in xda and elsewhere and got no where with this.
i have been worried about bricking so much that i didnt try to many weird procedures. i had even tried to go through with the android revolution installation procedure but failed right on. because revolutionary does not with with my device even though thr hboot is supported.
i badly need to move to a newer jelly bean based rom or later else my device is like a stone-age crap. i sincerely request some straight forward process / guidance of getting through this without weird, wire trick etc.
i really want to keep this device instead of buying a new device for no reason. but i dont know how to start and how to end. kindly help me out.

This is definately not the place to ask for "all inclusive help".
You should at least do some own basic researches or leave your phone as it is,
especially when you're worried about bricking your device.
There are so many excellent descriptions here, that could guide you to flash a custom rom.
2nd
If you are on hboot 1.18 you don't need to do the wire trick for s-off, just have a look at this.
If you searched a little bit, you'd find out yourself.
But even the wire trick is nothing "bad", I did it on 6 devices till now.
I'd like to encourage you to simply read/search a little bit more here in the forums before coming back and asking for help.

Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2751187 to gain S-OFF. Don't worry about the htcdev part.
I did it on a complete stock sensation xe with hboot 1.27 or 1.29 (can't remember exactly).
Just use the temp root and rumrunner.
For any information read the thread first, before asking.
Also this thread should be moved, because it doesn't belong into the development section.

i went through the thread again and again but still find it somewhat confusing. I cant seem to separate the temproot process start and end in there. can someone outline just the temproot procedure and the pre-requisite for it ?
Does temproot require controlbear files ? rumrunner site says it requires a htc dev unlocked device. is that a must ?

I'm not 100% sure about the exact steps anymore, but you don't need Controlbear, you just need the temp root.
When you have temp root, run rumrunner and follow the instructions.
I said read the thread, cause it might be possible that you get the message that it didn't work, while it actually did work.
You'll get everything needed in the thread. Otherwise just ask.

One thing you could do is:
- get your phone updated to ICS (OTA over device settings) to get the latest firmware/hboot on it
- HTC Dev unlock your device (nothing complicated, you need to have fastboot running)
- Install/flash latest 4ext recovery (once more via fastboot) and enable smart flash option
Now in recovery with updated firmware/hboot make a nandroid backup and flash almost every rom you like.
In first place I'd not flash a CM12 rom.

since you update to ics you will be able to flash every ics/jb/kk/lp custom rom you like
so should i go ahead with the official ics update?
It's up to you.
Might be you're just satisfied with your new ICS firmware.
If you want to go further, unlock and custom recovery is an quite easy step.
For custom rom s-off is not necessarily needed.

If you do the update, try again with rumrunner after it has finished.
Thanks. I updated to ICS and did a full factory reset. The device seems to be quiet smooth compared to GB though. The next update i do will be using what you suggested. Without SOFF flashing a custom rom.
When i get there i will message back on this thread. Going to test drive this ICS now for a while.time.
