[Q] Returning to s-on gone bad!

Hi there guys,
I have tried to s-on my phone using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1187231. The phone was s-off with alpharev before. My Setup is in my sign:
Everything was fine untill I got to the flash RUU part.
The Ruu i want to flash is RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.080 5U_38.03.02.11_M_release
At about 10% or so it stops and says something about a error 170. Then nothing..
Now my phone is stuck in this bootloader:
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL (The good thing is that it is s-on now :Op)
HBOOT-0.98.0000
RADIO-3805.06.02.03_M
eMMC-boot
I cant do anything from here, what ever I do it just reboots and gives me the same bootloader screen.
I have tried to run the RUU.exe like 3 times now, and no luck.
Really hope someone can help me with this one, Im in a bit of a pickle!
Regards,
Safi

hmm... after posting this I tryed to run this RUU:
RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.47.401.4_Radio_20.28I.30.085 AU_3805.06.02.03_M_release_199410_signed
And i think it fixed things.. ill report back..

if "eMMC-boot" thats good sign.

hm... Got the phone running again, but im not able to update to the news sense OTA, so ill see if i can get it in another way..

Mods please move this thread to the Q&A section.

You may know this already, but the MOD's never really read this forum the only was to get an action is to either PM them (smokestack76) or use the report button which is at the top right corner (triangle with exclamation mark) of each post when viewed in thread mode...this will enable you to fill in a report which is always acted on!

I know m8, it was just a reply to Skanob. Was a bit wierd out by his silly post. And I still got some problems with the phone, but the main thing is fixed, and I can use it.

My brand new sensation h-boot says locked but s-off?

Just received a sensation with this as the hboot:-
*** LOCKED ***
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.18.0000
RADIO-10.14.9035.01_M
eMMC-boot
Aug 2 2011,22:35:52
Was just about to go through the noob proof s-off process then discovered i'm already s-off.
I'm just a little perplexed by the *** LOCKED *** bit at the top and wondered if anyone could shed some light on it for me?
Can i just flash the clockworkmod PG58IMG.zip and then flash a custom rom without using the revolutionary.exe?

The locked bit at the top is the official HTC locking/unlocking message. If you go through the HTC website to unlock the boot loader it'll then say 'unlocked'
The S-OFF means 1 of two things:
1. You have a device S-OFF from the factory, or;
2. Someone returned it after unrooting and didn't S-ON the device again

Cheers for the reply
So i guess i'm good to install cwm and flash away?
edit: all sorted now

I have same issue as OP, but my H-BOOT's 1.27.0000
I can't flash **** through Fast boot, says not allowed -_-
I managed to get S-OFF via Rev, worked flawlessly gained root and did the downloading CWM, flashed Virtuous Inquisition and successfully got the on screen buttons working via decompiling-editing recompiling the framework-res.apk.
But I am utterly clueless as to why today, I find the ***Revolutionary*** has been replaced with ***Locked***
Anything I gotta do? Or just leave it?

If your s off, locked means nothing.

It just means that your bootloader is the locked variety so you can't do some extended fastboot commands such as 'fastboot flash splash1 nameofimg.img' to replace the splash screen and a few other less common commands. I wouldn't worry about it. If you want to replace the splash image, check here.

Look in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
You'll find an unlocked version of 1.27.1100 (3.24 Unlocked). It was unlocked by one of the Revolutionary team as far as I know.

Ivwoynd up re-Rev-ing it two days later...followed swiftly by my nearest cell tower falling over -_-
I've got shot of the Sensation now anyway, my kid threw up on it >_< so I joined the trendy crowd (only cause it was the best my jnsuarance would replace it with) and got an SGSII
Hilariously enough, my first impression is, I don't like touchwiz and want to flash a different ROM lol

Whatever I see from ur information I suggest you to get ur bootloader unlocked by HTC devs. Reason is u got second hand mobile so anyway you don't have warranty. Other thing check is it super cid If not get it done then start flashing. You will have less problem and if you stuck will get quick resolution.

I'm not so sure, when I used the HTCDev page to unlock the boot loader on my first Sensation, I followed all the steps to the letter and it hard-bricked the device. Used Revolutionary with the replacement one, worked flawlessly

you should probably update your recovery http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/99
in bootloader run these commands from the pc
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-evita.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then on the phone try to get the phone to go into recovery. older recoveries had a hard time getting into recovery from bootloader.
if that doesn't work boot into your regular rom and run "adb reboot recovery" make sure usb debugging is turned on.

the website says "You must be S-OFF or have taken HTC's unlock to use a recovery on your device!"
I do not have a S-OFF device. Is it impossible to go into recovery? Should I try this method regardless?

You need an unlocked boot loader to install recovery.
You can do it with S-off also.

[Q] bricked droid HTC One XL- boot screen loop

so I bricked my device. it boot loops at the htc screen. several hours later or repair attempts and I still am back to where I started. Initially was able to load elegencia, but when the wifi was not responding I tried to load another ROM and everything has just gone downhill from there.
on my boot screen I see
***UNLOCKED***
HBOOT1.32.0000
CPLD-None
MICROP-None
RADIO-SSD: 1.09.55.17
EMMC-bootmode: disabled
CPU-bootmode: disabled
HW-Secure boot: enabled
modem type : mdm9215m
I dont really want to re-trace all my steps as I have tried many things to get this back up and running. I think I want to put venom on here and leave it be. As of now I can no longer see the oneXL as a removable hard drive when i plug it into my pc. windows reports missing hardware ID once and a while. I have recovery as an option when I boot to hboot, but I cannot figure out how to load a boot able image from there. my backups got deleted. When I check my hardware with adb I cannot see it, but my pc detects a device being plugged in. I can flash to the device. So I think I also deleted my hardware ID trying to put in 11111111 superCID. not sure what else I can add. Any help would be appreciated.

Wait, what model phone do you have? Does it say Evita or Endeavor in the bootloader screen?

sorry. it is an evita. and I am using openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-evitareul for recovery.

That's not making sense, those ROMs and recovery are not for the Evita. It looks like you might have the HTC One X+, yes?

I thought it was a one X+ originally. 64gb version. it was an att phone.
it says EVITARE_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RL at the top of hboot

Ok, it's definitely a One X+ then. You'll have to go ask your questions at that device forum as we can't really help you here.

[Fixed]Can't update to 5.0 Bootloader stuck

Hey guys,
So I have been looking around for about 3 days and can't figure out what to do. I was rooted a while ago and tried to go back to stock for updating to 4.4.4. Now I am trying to get to 5.0 and this is what I am dealing with. The phone keeps booting into Bootloader no matter what I do. If it's plugged into a PC or charger and I try to charge while off, it goes right in. This what I see:
*** Software status: Modified ***
*** RELOCKED ***
*Security Warning ***
MS_WLV PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-3.19.0.0006
RADIO-1.09.20.0926

sept 30 2014,01:16:07.0
If I try to use the recovery it just loops back into boot loader. I am extremely frustrated at this point and am about to just break the darn thing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Do I have to use sunshine to unlock everything again just to lock everyone up?
Thanks in advance,
Cameron

Yes, I was s-off before. I tried following the HTC one m8 all in one toolkit to go back to stock and that's how (I guess) I got to bootloader relocked. I was trying to get my phone to let me go to 5.0 but after the OTA downloaded and would restart for the update it would go into bootloader and sit there.
