[Q] Revert GB after ICS RUU

My guess is that topic could be of interest for people which wants to go back to GB after testing ICS RUU.
My doubt is shall I first unlock the phone (it is still stock) or go straight to ICS by RUU.
Maybe, I do not have to unlock it at all, since I intend to use RUU for ICS and in case I want to revert back to GB I will use RUU for GB.
Is this right way?
Can I go back to GB with original RUU after ICS?

Will anyone reply?

I guess you cannot unless you are rooted and S-OFF.

Because ICS sucks... Sense, the interface who makes HTC smartphones so beautifull, is very slow on Desire S with ICS..
Maybe some custom ROMs with ICS will be better.
I need GB back but I know that is hard to do.
Just for my curiosity: why is ICS so perfect for you?

it's not slow at all. try to reflash ICS...

Is there possibility to revert back after RUU with ICS?
After ICS can the Desire S be unlocked and S-OFF?

Have you tried a factory reset?
I know you will lose all your data and settings, but I also know that the official update should not be laggy. Have tried it myself, buy at the moment I'm CM 10 and want to keep it a while so I cannot say how it is to use as a daily driver.

After ICS you can still unlock by htcdev.com.
And you can revert back to GB by modifying misc_version

[Q] some places touch screen not working HTC Desire S

Hi everybody,
i have HTC Desire S. I have problems with touchscreen after flashing official ROM,really ROM been flashing twice before,after first you can see just white screen with HTC logo,but after second works good but no long time later showed problems with touch screen,this man in Mobile phone shop said need change digitizer. Ok, i replaced the digitizer yesterday,and he started working a bit better,but anyway some places(usually bottom part) sometimes screen respond,but from maybe after 20-30 touches times. In the center works good, maybe i need make downgrade to previous version ROM?

It's not just the hboot that needs updating the idea other things in the RUU as well. Which RUU did you try running?

Oh psh I'm dumb... You'll need to s-off first and then run the ruu. You should be good after that.

Wrong it needs the 3.17/3.18 firmware files, it is not about hboot.214, just the same as the touch screen driver issue was never hboot 2.14.
RUU your phone. Easiest method is to supercid, s-off and then RUU.
You will likely want access to a Windows machine at some point during that.

Is it possible to just flash the OTA JB update instead of ruu? I already have supercid, s-off and unlocked

Yes.. but you need to extract the recovery.img from the update zip file. Then fastboot flash the stock recovery (after making sure the ota is on your storage) then boot to bootloader. Then recovery. Press volume up and press and release power to access recovery menu. Then pick the ota and flash

Having trouble with stability and features when running some of the newer AOSP roms. e.g. when running Carbon AOSP, having trouble with data connection, torch, and reboots. Devs feel my older hboot is the culprit, as that is the only difference they are seeing in my device.
