There is only one zip for ALL supported phones and hboot versions! I posted the direct link above since you seem to be just a little confused. Here it is again:
http://revolutionary.io/revolutionary-0.4pre3.zip

Yes I understand but I look for someone who has installed the latest update from HTC and then used Revolutionary, so he can make a copy of HBoot 1.18.0000

Here
Download also contains radio and other firmware updates, just extract the hboot and do with it what you will. BTW once you run revolutionary that hboot gets replaced by the hacked revolutionary hboot so getting it from a device that ran revo is pointless!

Thanks but i search the hacked revolutionary hboot not official.

Just run revolutionary then, cause you aren't making sense to me. It seems like you are making this too complicated. I guess I can't help you.

He wants someone who ran the revolutionary exploit on the latest hboot to make a copy for him to flash.
But iirc, the latest revolutionary downgrades you back to 1.17 so trying to get a 1.18 is futile.

It's know that I quoted you, but it wasn't all directed at you. Part of it was telling op what he was asking made no sense in a clearer way since it seems English isn't his/her first language.

whats difference between 1.17 and 1.18?

Actually I've got S-Off and Hboot 1.18 and if someone tells me how to extract it I would do it but I don't know how to do
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA Premium App

You must have flashed the update after you got s-off which is fine but then you'll be missing out because fastboot cmds are not enabled in the stock hboot.

So there's no option to have hacked HBOOT 1.18.0000/1.18.1111 with revoultionary? Only option is downgrade to 1.17.1111?

You can S-Off it on 2.3.3 and update it OTA. I think it's the only way right now

Is this safe? Any info about differences in 1.18 / 1.17?
Btw my phone is sent to HTC because I did some mistake and bricked it.
When it will be back with OTA 2.3.4 then downgrade to 2.3.3 -> S-OFF -> upgrade 2.3.4? It will be safe?

[Q] Update HBOOT to 1.18

I am on InsertCoin ROM and I would like to know if I can update my HBOOT from 1.17 to 1.18.
Is this possible or there is not 1.18 (revolutionary) hacked ?

Revolutionary actually downgrades your from 1.18 to it's hacked 1.17, so upgrading to 1.18 is useless.
Also, why do you want 1.18 since you won't actually benifit/experience anything from it?

Thanx for the immediate answer. I just like flashing and updating.
So in conclusion there is no way of updating to 1.18 HBOOT (hacked of course).

Yeah, if you want fastboot commands, stay on either revolutionary hboot or Eng hboot.

ENG HBOOT is on version 1.18.1111 I think, isn 't it? Is there an .img file that I can place in SD and can autoupdate when I boot into bootloader? I searched the forum but I did not find that.
Thanx again for your answers.

Again, why flash a newer bootloader if there is NOTHING to gain from it, risking the possibility of hard bricking your phone, and with pointless "fixes" that are only to undo what revolutionary did?
Its jot an update in any way, shape, or form, and increases your possibility of a hard brick for zero gain.

Desire S how to S-OFF and Root ?!?

Hello!
I want to root my Desire S with official rom 2.3.5
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.00.0002
Radio - 3822.10.08.04_M
Aug 22 2011
My question - any solution for rooting and S-OFF for my Desire? I tray everething (UnlockRoot, SuperOneClick...), but no results Please help...

i think you must be s-off with revolutionary before root

to use revolutionary, you'll have to downgrade your hboot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318919
But I think you can get around that by using the HTC Dev website to s-off. I've never used HTC dev before so maybe someone else can shed some light on that

Is it possible to get S-OFF without downgrading my HBOOT?

Yes as I mentioned before with htcdev but I'm not sure on how it works. Maybe someone else can help with that
Sent from my Desire S using xda premium

I used manuals from HTC DEV site to unlock bootloader. After successful unlocking I used this instructions
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390496
Now, I have rooted my Desire S!!! But... ALL THINGS from my phone is deleted
My HBOOT is still 2.00.0002
Any solution to change S-ON to S-OFF?

I don't think its necessary to have s-off but when you flash a rom, you'll have to flash the boot.img as well.
I'm not sure why you lost everything though

Htcdev can unlock your bootloader but it won't s off.
To s off you'd need to downgrade hboot n use revolutionary.
Read up on the forum your question has been answered many many times
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium

sadsac is correct, htcdev can only unlock your bootloader, nothing more. But you will need for other steps to get mobile s-off and root.
In my case, I also had got HBOOT 2.00.0002 and revolutionary do not like it, so i had to downgrade:

To S-OFF use Juopunutbear S-OFF method. Read and follow this detailed guide.

Thats not revolutionary...
Atm revolutionary doesnt support this version of hboot.

Sorry about that.. solved my problem, i forgot that @ revolutionary site you can choose the hboot version XD. the supported ones are 1.17 and 1.18, anyway my problem is solved 'cause i've used a RUU to return back to hboot 1.18, anyway thank you!

It is possible i already did it one time when i recovered the phone with the 1.45 RUU starting from a Android 4.0.3 based custom rom, it's a bit twisted process but not that hard

I know its possible with s-off. But with stock, unrooted ICS iT's not..

Best method downgrading hboot

I have read the tut for brick/unbrick and downgrade hboot in dev section. And if I read it good there are 2 methods of downgrade hboot
1) brick/unbrick device and downgrade hboot (first post tutorial)
2) change CID and run RUU with lower hboot (second post tutorial)
If these are the options I think the second is the easiest way to downgrade hboot, but why are most people downgrading there devices by bricking it? Are there advantages or disadvantages for each method?
Edit I have hboot 2.15 and want downgrade to hboot 1.06

Changing cid seems to have caused a few bricks for some people when trying to update to official JB OTA.

So would you advice to use the first method, although I already OTA updated to JB?

I have downgrad by the first method and i have test all the way to hard brick my phone
And I can say that it's impossible to hard brick your phone with this tutorial.

I think the issue happend when the cid was already changed on ICS, and you tried to update to JB. Changing it when you already are on JB shouldnt be any problem.
But I havnt done any downgrading myself, so I dont know... Its just what Ive read.

Just to be clear there is ONLY one way to downgrade hboot and that is with what you call option 1.
For what you describe as option 2 that ONLY applies AFTER you do option 1. If you want to run a RUU AFTER you've completed the downgrade you also have to do what is stated in the second post. Although it's much easier to use the the all in one tool kit reset your main version. This is achieved by and pressing the "Main version fix" button using the all in one toolkit. That will save you trouble of pulling mmcblkp23, hex editing it, then pushing it back to the phone.

Alright I understand it, I will read the tut again and try with my nooby knowledge of linux to downgrade

It's a pretty straight forward method. Try not to panic if you encounter a problem. The good news is that it's almost impossible to truly "brick" this phone. Just take a step back and reread the instructions paying close attention to the details. Post your questions about the process in the main thread, the people that follow it typically have a higher level of understanding then the forum overall.
If you don't have the required 10 posts to be able to post in the development sections go post some BS ones somewhere in XDA so you can get into that thread.

Oke thanks :thumbup:, it sounds doable to downgrade with these instructions

I said that because at the time it would have made your phone up to date before doing the downgrade but he is already on JB so that RUU wont work and only needs to do the downgrade.
