How to downgrade HTC Sensation 4g from stock ICS to stock GB

I have HTC Sensation 4G and it was running stock GB but I have updated the software to stock ICS from "software updates".
I wish to downgrade ICS to stock GB as the phone was much faster on GB. I have GB RUU file but of course it won't work as it's not so easy to downgrade from higher to lower version of android os.
My phone has the follwoing:
----------------------------------------
Hboot 1.27.0000
Image firmware 3.32.841.15
Android 4.0.3
CID: Telst001
(I have found that the highest ics version for sensation 4g is 3.32.401.5) so I don't know how Telstra managed to make it 3.32.841.15. Maybe to make it harder for users to update via RUU files. Telstra is the phone carrier who sold the phone to me.
What I want is just to go back to stock GB, I don't want to root my phone and I don't want to S-OFF.
Everyone on net is only talking about rooting and S-OFF the phone but no clear answer or guide on how to Downgrade HTC Sensation 4g from Stock ICS to Stock GB.
Hope you can help me with that.
Thanks
Notes:
PS: I have tried to install almost every RUU_Pyramid version by normal windows installer (RUU.exe) and always stop with error (130) or via fast usb (PG58IMG.zip) with error "Model ID incorrect"!
I also would like someone to give 1 simple answer about this question:
If I S-OFF the phone, will i be able to install any compatible stock RUU version. I mean, i'm now on ICS and if I S-OFF the phone can i downgrade to GB without worrying about change Hboot version, rooting or messing too much with phone. Just run the RUU file and it will work without troubles?

S-Off isn't what will give you the ability to run any RUU.
Changing to the universal CID of 11111111 is what will let you do it.
Of course if you S-Off you can just install a custom recovery and flash any stock GB ROM you want and get to the same end result.

So if I change the universal CID I will be able to downgrade from stock ICS to stock GB without rooting and without S-OFF? if so, how can i change the universal CID?

As I mentioned in my first posting that I want to use stock GB NOT custom rom. I do already have the correct RUU rom for my phone.
So, if you are saying that I have to S-OFF. Then are you are to able to give simple direction 1,2,3....
I can S-OFF the phone with revolutionary but Once I have S-OFF can I just run GB RUU file without rooting and without doing any extra work on the phone???

Revolutionary won't work on ics firmware u jb method for s off , including wire trick
After s off u have two options
1 - change cid to super cid and flash any RUU
2 - find matching RUU for your cid and install
For installing RUU ,
Connect device to pc in fastboot mode and double click RUU , it will install
Check kgs RUU thread in General section for all details information

Here is the guide for getting S-Off: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614617
and here is the thread with all the firmwares: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767&highlight=firmware
In order to run GB again you'll need to install the 1.17 Universal firmware (after having SuperCID and S-Off) using the instructions provided in that thread. However, I have no idea if it is possible to install an older firmware when you're on a newer one; you'll have to ask that in that thread. Finally, be careful and read all the instructions when you do these because gaining S-Off and (especially) installing different Hboots are very dangerous and can easily brick your phone if you do something wrong.

I did follow everything on the link you gave me.
* Phone now is rooted ( Not what I want )
* Revolutionary Utility didn't work with my phone because it doesn't support my Hboot version 1.27.0000 (So I can not get S-OFF with revolutionary).
* As per the guide, I can not have S-OFF with revolutionary, so I won't be able to get SuperCID, because to be able to run cmd command "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" I must have S-OFF first. But even if I have SuperCID, that alone won't allow me to install GB
All what I need now is two things:
1- Changing misc version to lower version than what I have to be able to install older RUU
2- Having SuperCID to be able to install other region Radio or RUU version
Can anyone tell me how to change the misc version on HTC Senation and have Supercid?

in ics android there is only way to gain S-OFF and then supercid and it is with juopunutbear method which involves wire trick
see here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1661631
after that you can flash the GB RUU

Done
Yes, you were all right about using juopunutbear method. I can confirm it's the only way to get S-OFF on ICS 4.0.3. So I have followed juopunutbear method and I got S-OFF so easy without a problem, then I run "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" to get SuperCID.
After that I was able to downgrade from ICS to GB by running RUU.exe
Thanks to you all for your help.

threat to warranty?

flash the stock recovery to your phone and relock your bootloader to install the ruu.
stock recovery:

I recommend you to s-off your device, it makes everything easier for you.
I also recommend you to do a factory reset after flashing the ruu.
so:
1. flash stock recovery
2. relock your bootloader (fastboot oem lock)
3. run the ruu
4. factory reset
5. be happy to have the stock rom back

thanks

what do you mean be unbranded ?
and is it better to just install a custom rom and if i relock the bootloader can i just unlock it later

unbranded = you can use every carrier
branded = you can only use e.g. vodafone
it depends on your needs which custom rom you want to use.
if you only want a stable phone the stock rom should be enough.
trickdroid and viper one s are good too.
if you like to experiment a little and can life with bugs cm 10.1 and the other aosp (pure android) based roms should be good too.
and there is a thanks button for giving me a thanks hope I could help you
and yes if you are relocked you can unlock again, just follow the same steps again (flash unlock.bin etc.)
ruu only will run if the bootloader is unlocked (if you have s-off it doesnt matter)

uhm... as far as I know we only got the branding free JB ruu.
the other will not work because you alreade have the new hboot.
I think the best would be to follow the S-off guide and change your CID to a brandingfree one (HTC__001)
this also has the advantage that you will get updates sooner than the branded one and you can use every sim now.
if you follow the guide carefully and step by step it shouldnt be that difficult
the s-off procedure itself only takes ~5-10min

I have HBOOT 2.13 ( T-Mobile UK branded) and was able to S-OFF the phone without any issues. You can search for 3 UK branded RUUs on http://androidfiles.org/ruu. If the RUU is for a lower software version, S-OFF will allow you to downgrade.

The 3 UK files are the RUUs which are labelled H3G.
Once you have S-OFF you can just run a lower RUU than your current software version and it will downgrade.
Without S-OFF it won't work though.

so can i find one for my phone ? or can someone tell me how to flash a custom rom which works as it always fails to boot up ? and do i need to flash boot.img

Yes, you need to fastboot the boot.img from the ROM zip you are flashing.
Also, don't use twrp 2.4 or higher. Use lower or cwm.

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

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

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 got the S=OFF OTA 2.15

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.

Can anyone else confirm this works? I have to wait until tomorrow to test.

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 RUU. Will put you down to ICS and hboot 1.08
RUU_Ville_U_TMOUS_1.84.531.2_R2_Radio_0.16.31501S.16_2_10.22.31501S.10L_release_263233_signed.exe
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.
[S4][01.05][V6][V4]Radio Collection for Sense ROM's and AOSP ROM's + Build.prop fix
None of this is my work, just what I have done some research on and found they worked for me.

Thanks for the reply! I've been trying for so long to fix this problem and it's great to finally see someone who has had positive results. I'll give it a try tonight and hopefully I'll have the same result.

Thank you so much!! This worked perfectly for me. These fixes should be posted in a thread somewhere because a lot of people seem to be having the same problem.

Is this the same as superCID S-OFF?

I facepalmed s-off a very long time ago, I wouldn't want a custom hboot can be a disaster sometimes lol
Doesn't soff let u do everything anyway? Why's the eng hboot needed

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.

You should be able to. With S-OFF, just use fastboot oem writecid 11111111
HTC_One_S | S-OFF | ViperOneS_2.2.0 | Black&Blue_Inverted_Sense | Bulletproof_1.4
Inverted Sense _4+_and_5_click me

Moonshine is awesome. I used it to s-off over the most recent OTA, and applied SuperCID using the hex editor "1111111" method. Going to switch over to Verizon when my contract is up, and wont have to give up my ville_u :good: :laugh:

o yeah I totally did that, just seemingly pointless if I am s-off already, right?

So has anyone gained S-Off with Hboot 2.15 using moonshine on a windows machine?
I did install latest JB OTA. but do have Super CID.
Cheers

(RUU_EVITA_UL_JB_45_S_Cingular_US_3.18.502.6_Radio_0.24p.32.09.06_10.130.32.34_release_signed_With_Partial)
The Filename mentioned ... want to know is it correct RUU for my At&t HOX?
My Current Info is
Software Number "1.85.502.3" | Radio 0.17.32.09.12 | Hboot 1.09.0000

That is the right RUU for the AT&T version.
Is your phone stock or modded?

If you have Super CID, do not run the RUU. It will brick your phone.
If you're not sure, type the following command into your command line:
fastboot oem
readcid

If the phone is s-on, yes that is right.

First of All Thanksss
yeahhhh its S-on
and please let me know why super cid will brick?? I thought super cid means any ruu will work..lol :silly:
and no mine is not super cid ... so I will upgrade it. :highfive:

SuperCID just means that at&t phones were able to unlock via htcdev because the at&t CID was blocked. SuperCID + s-on + jb RUU = brick. This is because a CID check that occurs halfway through the RUU update doesn't allow the RUU to finish, therefore ending up with a partially completed RUU, which means a bricked phone.

What timmaaa mentioned is basically a bug. The RUU shoudn't run halfway like that, but for some reason on JB RUUs, it does (past RUUs were fine with SuperCID).
But also, what you said above is not true. SuperCID will not allow "any" RUU to work. It only bypasses CID check. Trying to run a RUU for an older hboot will fail version check. You need s-off to run "any" RUU.

thanksssss ALL Update Successful.....
