What Hboot do you have? I believe 1.14 will cause your wifi to break. I haven't been on this forum in awhile, but one option was to downgrade your hboot. It's isn't extremely difficult, but you have to have Ubuntu installed.
Trickdroid wifi worked at one point regardless of hboot, however, I'm not sure if that's the case anymore.

You need the Wifi Partitions fix which can be found
Bundled with the radios: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1998270
or Standalone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2064868&highlight=wifi+partitions
But you will need a low hboot version.
If not, then SuperCID and S-OFF your phone and it will work. I just did my SuperCID and S-OFF last night and it was easy as long as you're comfortable with adb, fastboot, and reading instructions.

How do I install a wifi partition? Or a radio for that matter?
Can I use fastboot and do something like
fastboot flash partition <filename> ?
Or simply flash the zip from recovery?
I have hboot version 1.08, so I should be safe to do so, right?
Thanks!

With your hboot you should be able to just flash the wifi partitions on recovery.

People need to forget about the hboot downgrade...s-off is much safer and easier.

I had a similar problem yesterday... I found out its a problem with the kernel I had. I later used the Boot.img kernel from Trickdroid (obtain from their website). I fastboot flashed it and voila my Viper Rom worked well with it! Wifi working great

Fixing helicopter issue

Hi,
I'm running ViperOneS 2.2.0 (Android 4.1.1) and still having the helicopter-glitch. So I contacted HTC support and they told me I should backup all my data and do a hardreset. Will my phone be OK after running the hardreset? Because of custom ROM? I've unlocked via HTCDev and I'm running CWM recovery. Do you think this will fix the issue? Sending it in for repair could end up expensive, because of unlock. Or are there any other ideas for fixing it?
Greets
Sorry I didn't use the helicopter-thread but this does not directly concern the issue itself...

no proper fix till now! we are stuck with it

Seriously HTC!? -.-
Chances for a fix with hardreset? none?

Doubt it. You could try running an ruu, but other than that...???
HTC_One_S | S-OFF | ViperOneS_2.2.0 | Black-Blue_Sense_Theme | ElementalX_4.2

But whats the difference between RUU with Android 4.1.1 and ViperOneS also running 4.1.1? HTC said the fix was added in Jelly Bean?

RUU , will flash new versions of bootloader , radio etc . The rom is just the system partition , I recommend you to RUU the device then restore your ViperROM

Ruu is like a fresh wipe/reset/clean. Wipe everything and re flash all partitions.
HTC_One_S | S-OFF | ViperOneS_2.2.0 | Black-Blue_Sense_Theme | ElementalX_4.2

Ok thanks, I'll give that a try. Can someone please post how I exactly do that? First time to flash RUU... Found this: http://androidforums.com/one-s-all-things-root/691874-guide-how-run-ruu-your-htc-one-s.html Will that work? And where can I get the RUU I need? It says I should go S-OFF to use any one I want... My phone came with german T-Mobile ROM. And using CWM isn't a problem, right?

[Q] Can't obtain Super CID on Hboot 2.15

HBOOT - 2.15.0000
Radio - 1.13.50.05.31
S-ON
JB 4.1.1
Unlocked and rooted with TWRP 2.5 recovery.
TMO
Tried this method for Super CID - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26516911#post26516911
When I try to dump the partition onto the SDcard, I get "Permission Denied"
I can't wipe the stock rom with TWRP or with Superwipe.
I just got a new phone under warranty exchange and realized that it is running 4.1.1. I'm not a noob but definitely feel like one. I tried searching the boards and all I can come up with is that maybe this can't Super CID yet. Is that true or am I missing a step for this newer build? Is there some other way to flash a ROM with S-ON and no Super CID? Any assistance would be appreciated.

You can flash whatever ROM you want without soff...just need to fastboot the boot.img.
For super cid, start on step 2 of that link using terminal emulator right on your phone.
Also, use twrp 2.3.3 or 2.2.2, people have been having issues with higher versions Or you can use cwm.

Attempted, was able to pull the mmcblk0p4 file, changed in HEX editor...instead of appearing as CWS__001 as the line to change, mine says T-MOB010 before my IMEI number. I changed it to 11111111, pushed the file and when I "fastboot oem readcid" it still reads T-MOB010. Tried in on the desktop and terminal emulator a couple of times. I just can't get the CID to stick!!!
Any other recommendations? I changed from TWRP to CWM 6.0.3.1 touch. I doubt the recovery has anything to do with it. Fully rooted...stuck on S-ON until I can figure out why I can't Super CID. MUST FLASH CUSTOM ROM!

i have this same problem. did you ever get it fixed? my Super CID wont stick

And what if we have S-On? I have S-On and can't get s-off because (I think) my hboot is causing USB connectivity problems when booted into the OS. I cannot get SuperCID to stick.

Can't Supercid with HBOOT 2.15.
It's vacation time, so I'm trying again. About to switch to an older recovery and just start messing around and seeing what kind of damage I can do...

FIXED
I wasn't able to flash TWRP to 2.3.3.0 so I just updated to the newest version 2.6.0.0.
I was finally able to wipe the system and data and everything and flash a fresh new rom.
TOOK LONG ENOUGH!!
Thanks to this forum!!!

If you are S=ON then you can not get scid with 2.15. The only (known to this time) way to get the s=off is moonshine script and then you can write the scid.

Yes you can. At least some of us. I am on 2.15 and used facepalm to get s-off, and that requires scid first.

Did you have any issues with moonshine? Tried doing this last night and it hangs on "Test 3" forever. I know it says not to touch your phone but after watching 2 shows on TV had to stop. Thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks!

Solved
So I followed someone else's directions and installed LinuxMint on a USB and was able to successfully run moonshine. I'm not S-OFF!

I am happy to announce that I got the S=OFF on OTA 2.15. I use moonshine http://www.moonshine.io method in Linux. I try in windows, but was unable to to remove the HTC Sync. It work in Linux. I use Linux Mint in KDE 14.

I can confirm. I just finished it. I had a Soft Brick with error mounting SD Card. After returning to S-On I was able to return to stock with a RUU. After that was complete up and running, I used Moonshine and now S-Off again.
I just need to work on the signal issue created with the updated TMOUS Firmware.

Hey I'm in the same boat as you. Do you still have the signal issue? How are you fixing it?

I have phone from TMO_DE with OTA 2.15 and just passed the moonshine without any problems (previously, I couldn't make S-off becouse I can't do SuperCID)

One S Multi-Tool is a timesaver and so much easier. After I was able to S-Off again with moonshine I was still having issues with custom roms and the signal on stock. With the stock the signal disconnected constantly and with custom it had errors and would not load. I returned to S-On but was able to keep my SuperCID so I could flash another RUU. I ran a lower RUU which downgraded my HBoot. Then I was able to flash a custom Rom. I am keeping the S-on for now because it kept breaking the connection to the sdcard. The signal was still choppy but with the lower HBoot I was able to flash a different radio. I had the newest but when I flashed a lower version, works perfect.

This is the radio. V6 is for S-Off Devices or those with HBoot lovver then 1.13. After your HBoot is set I flash the 0.16 radio, which is the same that is included with the RUU but it is an Aroma installer and gives the ability to adjust for T-Mobile and fix wifi partition. Works great.
V4 is for Hboots that are S-On and higher then 1.13. Resets after a ROM flash.

No and yes. It depend on your hboot version. For OTA with 2.15, there was no way to get the s=off as we could not do the supercid. With moonshine script, you do not need the supercid. I still have tmous cid. Different way to get the s=off and works.

[Q] Telus One S, soft bricked

I can't get a valid rom into my phone, and it currently has no ROM, but can get to boot loader, and fastboot. Please help me get it usable again.
I went to obtain S-Off on my One S (older phone, got it before the S-Off was available). aka, I was getting real tired of flashing CM Roms and having to use Fastboot to flash boot.img.
I selected the moonshine S-Off tool, and reviewed the directions.
Directions said you need stock, so I re-locked the boot loader, grabbed the Telus RUU.zip and tried to flash the phone to stock using Hansoon's All-in-one kit v4.0 for the One S. It came back and said: "FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)"
The RUU filename is: OTA_Ville_U_JB_45_S_TELUS_WWE_3.16.661.4_1.13.50.05.31_10.30.50.08L_release_307532nohrvy5j6i2o2i8i.zip
At this point I still had TWRP installed, so I tried to unlock and restore CyanogenMod from a nandroid backup to no avail. It said it couldn't mount several partitions.
Per another thread about that specific error I, flashed the recovery.img from the ruu zip file (it was already unlocked from the last step), relocked and retried. Got the same error.
I've attached a screenshot of the fastboot screen hoping that will provide useful info.
Any help is appreciated, and I'm happy to provide more info as needed as well.

That is not an ruu, it's an OTA.

I think your going about this all wrong. First, you are on a low enough firmware for facepalm s-off. Moonshine cannot even be run with your firmware even if you upgraded it.
What you need to do is super cid, then use facepalm s-off method.

There only is one. It's in the one s dev section titled "Super CID 11111111" and I'm sure they linked to it from the facepalm thread as it is a prerequisite.
