How to root hboot 2.00.0002

Hey guys, normally I would just lurk and avoid posting threads but I need help.
I want to root my Desire S.

When I click recovery on the bootloader screen I get taken to "Android system recovery <3e>", but when I try to apply an update through USB I get the following error message:
"Invalid operation:
reason: oem-00"
And then the phone just reboots.
If anyone can help I'd be very grateful.
Thanks.

Since you are unlocked via HTCDEV you can do...
If all you need is root then just run superoneclick, easy as that.
If you have your heart set on using recovery.... You need to flash a custom one (the stock one won't do), download clockworkmod .img and flash it in recovery.
Also if you ever choose to flash roms etc you will need a custom recovery.
If you choose to to go the custom recovery path here is a how to.
______________________________________
-Download attached file titled "android-tools.zip", it has the adb and fastboot files needed to proceed
-Extract the file to "c:\" so that the path looks like this C:\android-tools
-Install HTCDriver (Fastboot drivers) here's
-Open cmd and type "cd/"
-then type "cd android-tools"
*To test whether you have set up all the files correctly and your phone is connected correctly you can do the following;
*Plug your phone in (when plugging in select CHARGE ONLY (i.e. leave on the home screen)
*In cmd type "adb" and press enter, it should show a list of commands, then type "fastboot"and press enter, it should also show a list of commands)
*If both these commands work you have extracted the files to the right place and have setup cmd right.
*then type "adb devices"
*Should show connected phone serial if not then try get the latest HTCdrivers
-Download clockworkmod (here) for your phone and place .img in C:\android-tools folder (i.e. where the files adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll, AdbWinUsbApi.dll and fastboot.exe are)
*To make life easier rename the file to recovery.img
-start fastboot (boot Hboot, plug phone in "HBoot USB plug" shows once phone is plugged in and press the power button (fastboot is highlighted by default) then it says "Fastboot USB")
*(As a test to ensure you have put your phone into fastboot type "fastboot devices" in cmd, it will show your phones serial, if it shows nothing you have not put your phone into fastboot yet)
-run command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" in cmd
-then run "fastboot reboot"
NEXT - to get root
-Copy su-3.0.5-efgh-signed.zip to sdcard root (get latest from clockworkmod site if you wish)
-Start clockworkmod recovery (Hboot/recovery)
-Select install zip from sdcard"
-select Choose zip from sdcard
-Select copied file
-select Yes - install su-3.0.5-efgh-signed.zip to confirm
-Go back
-Then reboot.
All Done.

I would like to do the same thing, but mine says

Does that mean that I'm f**ked ?

@kryddan
Since you are locked and hboot 2.00.0002 you can either downgrade to an older hboot or unlock your bootloader with HTCdev (may void warranty).
Both are very well discussed here.

Downgrade sounds like going backwards. Think I'll search for HTCdev instead
It worked fine with HTCdev to unlock Ok, so it wiped the phone clean from personal data and apps, but who cares. It worked.
Thank you for your help. but go from S-ON to S-OFF seems a bit harder, without downgrade?
p.s. Have already voided my warranty. Got a new mainboard last week. d.s.

the hboot is your bootloader and manages things like partitioning your volume for system, data etc.
downgrading it will never mean going backwards.
what you could have done was downgrading hboot, s-off with revolutionary and get root with superoneklick. thats what i did (but hboot was already fine for me ) then you could install new recovery and done.
its not that hard
but since you have unlocked with htcdev anything you do with your phone will be (at least a bit) harder than with s-off.

[Q] How to flash Endymion, S-ON, HBOOT 2.00.0002

Hi guys, I decided to flash Endymion ROM to my Desire S, but I've never flashed a rom before, so I want to be sure I'll do it right. So my phone is Desire S, this is the info I see in the BOOTLOADER:
*** UNLOCKED ***

I have unlocked the bootloader using HTCDEV, I have installed Revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4 and ROM Manager from the market. I have downloaded the V3.5 base rom to my SD Card.
What I intend to do next is:
1) Activate USB Debugging
2) from ROM Manager to flash the Endymion rom
3) Reboot to BOOTLOADER and use the command fastboot flash boot $pathToBootIMG\boot.img to make it start correctly
Questions:
1) Is this all I need to do?
2) Do I have to downgrade the bootloader?
Thanks so much for your replies

3. flash the rom you want
4. power off
5. enter fastboot by pressing vol down and power button
6. flash the boot.img in fastboot,
(do extract the boot.img in every rom you flash)
(you need adb for this, run cmd and navigate where the adb and boot.img)
(code is "fastboot flash boot boot.img")
7. reboot

Thanks man, this is exactly what I did yesterday and now it works perfectly OK.
I found also this tutorial, originally for CM7, but it is 100% applicable for Endymion too.

by the way it's my fifth day on using CM7.2 but i like to try miui to see the difference.
thanks in advance.
Sent from my HTC Desire S

Yes, your Desire S is ready to get CustomRom's like a MIUI or CM.
1. You just must install or go to recovery (if you have). (power button + vol down, check "recovery" with vol buttons and press power button)
2. put zip with ROM on your SD card.
3. full wipe in recovery.
4. Install zip from SD (in recovery)
5. Copy boot.img from zip to folder with ADB & fastboot files.
6. Connect phone to PC, go to fastboot and type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
7. done
If you don't understand write here we can help you

@Mayex.. thanks bro..:good:
So i chose the ICE DS v8.0 FINAL and successfully flashed my CM7 rom. I just don't like the geeky UI of CM so I have to go back to HTC sense. :victory:
I might try the MIUI in time.

[Q] Bricked HTC, Can't Access Recovery

** PLEASE CLOSE THIS THREAD **
Hey, noob with many regrets here.
My device is a HTC One Mini (M7), yesterday I tried to change the ROM. I installed the Sense 6 Framework and now my phone is bricked. I have TWRP working but when I attempt to push the old working ROM it loads for a while, then gives me 'protocol error' in cmd. I viewed the files through the TWRP file manager and saw that the /sdcard is completely empty. When I boot the phone up and try to use it normally it gets stuck on the HTC screen, at the bottom 'powered by ANDROID' with the development purposes notes in red writing over it.
edit: Managed to re-unlock the bootloader and install TWRP, can now access recovery.
edit 2: Had LOTS of problems with ADB, after lots and lots of re-tries I was able to finally push a ROM.zip over to the phone and install.
Some figures you may find helpful:

Hey AjanD i hope i can help u with your problem.
The first thing after unlocking your bootloader (which makes your phone S-On) is to flash a recovery.
I would suggest TWRP recovery . The think u do is go to fastboot with volume down key+power button
After u download the TWRP recovery for your Htc One you enter the following command to flash recovery
" fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (where recovery.img the name of the twrp recovery.img) .Then you should be able
to access recovery menu. Hope I helped you
