You currently can't do this, the team that brought you alpharevx ares working on this
EDIT: Although, it would seem from the posts below that people have achieved this already!

You can use this method via adb:
1. Put the hboot.img you want to flash in the root of the sdcard.
2. In cmd run the following commands (after each command press enter):
adb devices
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 of=/sdcard/backup.img
dd if=/sdcard/hboot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
reboot bootloader

How do i get any hboot official 0.98.000
and how do i flash it.
thanks
first flash ENG Hboot from this thread ENG HBOOT
then flash any official rom from the bootloader (the rom file should be in zip format with name PG88IMG.zip placed in the root of tour SD card)
Thanks for the guide, maybe it can posting to sticky how to gain back s-on after alphareX
already done and success. Back to original hboot 0.98.0000
Please can you tell me which guide (adb or ENG boot) did you use?

I'll be honest (I'm not 100%) but I'm thinking that he intended the while lot to be typed through a command prompt in windows from your PC using ADB, rather than a terminal on the device itself.
Anyone know if this would work with other HTC phones (Incredible or Incredible 2)?

Check my previous post. Added hboot I used. 0.98.0000 as that is supported by Alpharev. Now I am back on S-Off again
so we no need to flash old rom with 0.98.0000 hboot just use image and instruction above?
1. You will need to have a room with root, to be able to follow actions described above.
2. If you have none stock rom and recovery you will have security issue, while booting up.
So you have only option of:
1. Running these actions
2. Then running RUU
Worked for me perfectly. P.s. I do not take any responsibility of issues faced Just explained my expierience.

If you are returned to stock can write a step-by-step guide?
Hello, Today I tried to downgrade my hboot 2.00.002 to 0.98.00000 and my phone is s-on and it was unlocked with htcdev. I tried to lock it again to downgrade hboot but it says "relocked" and " Security Warning" i used command" fastboot oem lock" and now phone is stucked in bootloader. Can anyone help me how to fix my problem ??? I tried to restard it and it start in bootloader. Recovery don't work too. Please help me I am a little noob in android development
Which guide did you follow?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399331
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1443636
I used this guide :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399331
but when i tried to push zergRush, it said : device not found
I don't think your supposed to lock your bootloader until you flash the RUU. You can't access ADB without booting into the ROM or recovery. The only thing i can suggest at this point is using a RUU to bring your phone back to stock and then starting again from scratch.
I found something and re-unlocked it again with htcdev. Now it is unlocked, I flashed recovery again , I wiped data , restore backup image and flashed kernel. Now it works but I can't install Ruu. My rom is BlindIce but I dont know how to come to stock rom.
I tried with "RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.9_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_234765_signed " but it said update can't be applied.
Glad you managed to fix that.
What error did you get from the RUU? And also have you already completed steps 1-5 and relocked the bootloader?
Make sure the RUU matches your network and region. Also make sure it has an old H-BOOT, not the newer ones.
This is a very good post from amidabuddha and i don't think i could have put it any better
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20536400&postcount=28
Also you could create a goldcard which would probably be easier. Use this method to make a goldcard which will remove any CID errors.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18748766&postcount=6
So first I do goldcard thing and than flash RUU with that exe or i need a stock rom from forum ?
Yeah first goldcard then RUU.
Have you got ZergRush working? Because you're going to need that. So i would do the exact same steps as the guide but after gaining temp root from ZergRush you create the goldcard. Then you change the misc version and then flash the RUU.
zergRush don't work. I get this error:
c:\>cd c:\ics
c:\ics>adb push zergRush /data/local/tmp

Make sure USB Debugging is enabled in settings and try reconnecting your USB. ADB does that for me sometimes as well. Try a different USB port as well.
I fixed that, but i followed all steps in downgrade tutorial than i did goldcard but i get unknown error at RUU installing.
I get error at signature and if i disconnect cable phone say: "Ruu security failed! Update fail!"
this is my cmd:

that means you have used zerg rush properly all u need to do now is get the ruu relock your bootloader then run the ruu then youll have downgraded your hboot successfully
And since the wrong info was already posted in this thread, I'll correct: you can run the RUU from bootloader too, you just need to be in FASTBOOT mode and have the drivers installed (which is a given if you used HTCDev).

...If your bootloader is unlocked, just flash recovery and flash su. You don't need to go through all that again. That was all to get an unlocked bootloader, which you already have.
Does your bootloader say locked, relocked, or unlocked?

Use twrp 2.3.3.1 nothing higher
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium
You need to install the super user zip file or flash a rom in recovery. (31Ken31 is right about the version)
Download recovery and be sure to check the MD5 before flashing. You could have a bad download causing you issues.
If it STILL freezes while loading recovery after flashing recovery that you've verified the MD5 for,
RUU again and then try again. (I've seen that problem before) If you are S-OFF, you don't need to lock your bootloader to RUU.

Flashing superuser is done in recovery like a rom. You need to flash recovery properly before you can do anything. Make sure your download of TWRP is not corrupt. As I said if your download of TWRP is not corrupt(md5 matches) and it's still not booting into recovery, RUU again and then try flashing recovery again. use 2.3.3.1 so you don't need to downgrade your touchscreen firmware to use it.

when tryed to go recovery after install twrp flashed by fastboot

Nevermind, pulled links from properties and checked them. Do what I suggested in my last post.
Remember, if the MD5 of the TWRP you downloaded matches and still doesn't flash, Run the RUU again and then try flashing twrp again. And don't forget to do fastboot erase cache after flashing twrp.
You do not need to relock your bootloader to RUU since you are S-OFF.

If you cannot manage to get TWRP to install you should not even be rooting. That's the most basic part of the entire rooting/flashing process. I already told you RUU and then flash twrp and then fastboot erase cache. Did you RUU?
You really seem to have very little idea what you're doing and if you can't get TWRP to install, you should not even be attempting to root. I am not trying to be mean. I am simply warning you.
No, you cannot flash a rom with fastboot.

I have also created an automated Tool for S-Off . Those who find this guide difficult to understand and download and use the tool from the thread
HERE
After the advanced ace hack kit (AAHK) was taken down, it was a bit tough to get an S-Off on our devices. The existing guides never explained anything much.
So , I will be explaining and trying to simplify the S-Off method for HTC Desire HD.
Please note: I take absolutely no CREDIT for this. All I have done is simplified it.
The following goes unsaid.
Code:
#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about directions in this method
* before following it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/
Please donot ask me what fastboot mode is or how to boot into it or the advantages of an "S-OFF". I have only made this guide a bit simplified , but not noob friendly. This is still for advanced users and in addition for intermediate users.
Requirements
Your device must be rooted and the bootloader must be unlocked
Android sdk tools must be installed
Please make sure you have the Unlock_code.bin that you used to unlock the bootloaders since you will need it.
Most Important : Please follow the instructions exactly, Don't exit from shell unless I ask you to. I will not entertain any PMs or posts if you don't follow them.
Directions
I would prefer using a linux machine for this, but the choice is upto you.
1 . Download and extract this and cd into the directory in your terminal / CMD window and push the following files
Code:
#~adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp
#~adb push goldcard /data/local/tmp
#~adb push gfree /tmp/
2 . Make sure you have the original "boot.img" of your ROM on you PC HDD.
3 . Make a Goldcard in the following way
Code:
#~adb shell
$~su
#~chmod 775 /data/local/tmp/goldcard
#~cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:*/cid
This will generate the CID. Copy the generated CID
Code:
#~/data/local/tmp/goldcard -c <YOUR_CID_HERE> -o /data/local/tmp/goldcard.img
#~dd if=/data/local/tmp/goldcard.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk1
This should create the Goldcard.
4. Next to lower the main version
Code:
#~chmod 775 /data/local/tmp/misc_version
#~/data/local/tmp/misc_version -s 1.11.111.1
#~reboot bootloader
5. Next relock the bootloader
Code:
#~fastboot oem lock
6. Flash the firmware.zip in RUU
Code:
#~fastboot oem rebootRUU
#~fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
#~fastboot reboot-bootloader
7. Unlock bootloader with the Unlock_code.bin got from HTC's Developer site
Code:
#~fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
8. Next flash your ROM's boot.img
Code:
#~fastboot flash boot boot.img
9. Next flash the recovery.img
Code:
#~fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
#~fastboot boot recovery.img
Don't worry : The screen will stay blank. ADB will work.
10. Now to S-OFF...
Code:
#~adb shell
#~chmod 775 /tmp/gfree
#~/tmp/gfree -f
#~reboot bootloader
Now the device will reboot to bootloader. And you will see that your device as been S-Offed.
11. Next step is to enter fastboot mode on the device. (Please keep the device connected to the PC)
Choose the appropriate Hboot_xxxx.zip file for your phone
Code:
#~fastboot oem rebootRUU
#~fastbbot flash zip hboot_xxxxx.zip
#~fastboot reboot
12. Now flash CWM recovery
Download file from here
Pull battery out and reinsert. Boot phone to fastboot mode.
Connect to PC.
Code:
#~fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.1.5-ace.img
That's it!! Now flash your favourite ROM and reboot.

Module returned an unknown code (No such file or directory).
Hmm, i tried this, but at the last few steps (tmp/gfree -f) i get this error,
Code:
Attempting to power cycle eMMC... Failed. Module returned an unknown code (No such file or directory).
i rebooted into the bootloader and the status was still:
"***** AAHK *****
ACE PVT ENG S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.85.2425
etc, etc
my device was fully s-off before this, I'm not a noob either lol

I ran the process in recovery, I didn't think I'd have to use su to complete the process, I'll try it again with root access

Edit: followed it step by step on linux as well, while doing "adb push gfree /tmp/" i got the error "failed to copy 'gfree' to '/tmp/': Is a directory"
atleast when you explain the guide you need to explain that you need a STOCK rom, not anything else.you must have 2.3.5 with the stock kernel and gfree will work then.Any other ROM/Kernel combo and it will give the same error.

go ahead try it on stock, you'll see it will work right off the bat.
backup your current rom, it's easy to restore afterwards.why go through all the trouble when the solution is nitr00's rooted stock rom.

Yeah I'm just going to do a nandroid, flash the ROM, and get it over with, at the start I had the official eng boot loader, the 0.85.***7 one, I saw the aahk one and wanted that because it was newer (generally I go for the latest version on everything ) I flashed it over fastboot and ended up having s-on, it was pretty annoying to find that the tool I used to get the other eng boot loader quit working too (Easy one click s-off)

Annoyingly enough, every gingerbread sense rom that i flash gets stuck at a black screen just after the splash screen, adb will not pick it up either.
Hold the phone! I forgot to flash the boot.img seperately
Yet another edit: i'm still getting the error "Failed to copy 'gfree' to '/tmp/': Is a directory" I'm running the stock rooted rom too.
I found the problem, it was indeed a typo on your part, '/tmp/' isn't a directory when it has the slash at the end too, its supposed to be "/tmp"
Completed the whole process using the guide on the aahk website instead
Hey Guys, after a long time with a normal one mini i prepared it for the next phase.
I unlocked my bootloader
Installed the latest twrp-2.7.1.1
Have copied InsertCoin_m4-3.0.3 into my Htc
Copied out the boot image and typing this for the flash!
fastboot erase cache:
fastboot flash boot boot.img:
fastboot erase cache
Got 3 times the message for fnished!
Then i have gone in the recovery and installed InscertCoin...at the end i am getting the message that all was fine!!
After a short Reboot the HTC logo pop ups and it is like nothing happend.Just as a Factory Reset
What is wrong?

Why erase cache twice"
I moved from stock the other day,without problems (did spend almost a week reading all the threads on here)
I unlocked via htc dev
Installed twrp
Manged to soff my mini
Got the supercid
I had to updated the hboot to 2.22
I then had to update my twrp to 2.7.1.1 as old twrp couldn't find anything
Then flashed my rom
This worked for me but you may be different,hope this kinda helps
i See...
You have S-Off and supercid
But it is rly needed to update Hboot?

I am so confused...i have 3 instructions:
The first one is using also temproot :
adb reboot <–important!!!!
adb wait-for-device push firewater /data/local/tmp
adb push temproot /data/local/tmp
adb shell
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/temproot
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/firewater
/data/local/tmp/temproot <---- this can take like 10-15 minutes to run
>>>ERROR:
Failed to get prepare_kernel_cred adress.
Failed to get commit_creds adress.
Failed to get ptmx.fops adress.
Failed to setup varialbes.
/data/local/tmp/firewater
The second one tell me smth that i have to flash my rom and kernel ?!?!?!?!
JmzM4StockRootedOdex-WWE-1.22.401.1 & Jmz M4 Kernel
Dont tested, cause i have to flash my rom and Kernel!The main goal is to flash InsertCoin as a Rom
Third one is the normal
adb reboot <–important!!!!
adb wait-for-device push firewater /data/local/tmp
adb shell
su
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/firewater
/data/local/tmp/firewater
But in this instruction, i was one step away to get my s-off til i got the message
Error: kernel contains HTC anti-firewater patch!
-----Try again with a different kernel---
And ramrunner i read that you need a special Hboot version 1.56 or 1.57
I have 2.21
So rly...i dont know how you s-off your Mini
Might have been a bad download.

Juhuu...i used rumrunner universial and got to the end a message
1 flash an unsecure kernel thats compatible with your Rom and retry
2. Flash a d different rom
To Point 1: How this could be?
2: I am on Stock Rom, never do smth with my HTC one Mini and sometimes i read that u need STOCK ROM! SO why to change it?
