Hello folks,
I asked this already in an other thread (topic was similar the same) but with no reply. I guess this forum is more suitable as I just need a straight answer.
I got:
- Android 2.3.5 & Sense 3.0
- Build 2.10.401.8 CL156318
- HBOOT 2.00.0002
- Rooted with SuperOneClick
- Done Unlock with HTCdev
Is there a way to install a Custom ROMs without downgrading HBOOT?
Yes, flash a custom recovery, 4ext or cwm, once installed use recovery to install the roms.
You can only truly s-off by downgrading currently.
Is there anything I will miss if I don't S-OFF but just flash a custom recovery?
@RobaL4
For you no, you just wont be able to flash radios and I think (not 100% sure) hboots.
With HTC unlock you can't change kernel nor radio images so some custom roms will not work at all and some others will lack some kernel specific support/tweaks
I have same problem but at this moment no way for do S-off.

Not entirely true. You can flash a kernel/boot.img in fastboot mode, so there is an extra step involved.
1. Flash the custom ROM in recovery mode.
2. Extract the boot.img from the custom ROM's zip file and place it in the same directory where you have adb.exe and fastboot.exe and then flash it in fastboot mode using the command:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Latest 4eXT Recovery Touch as PG88IMG incase anyone wants/needs to use it For s-off devices. Download the PG88IMG.zip file, put it on the root of your sdcard (Not in a folder) then boot in to bootloader, bootloader will find the zip and ask to update recovery, press volume UP for yes and your done. Just reboot.
Edit: has been confirmed to work with s-on with unlocked bootloader (htcdev)

I don't think it would work for S-On users. It's like when u trying to update your radio with an image.

yh was thinking that but u can flash "recovery.img" with s-on unlocked bootloader so maybe it could work. i would try but downgraded then s-off me phone.
Updated to latest recovery
I'm S-on and it works. I needed a recovery capable of flashing CM11, and this version works!

I didn't try with this file, but when I was on CM10.1 I tried the method you described, but it didn't work. The only way to install a custom rec if you're S-ON is via fastboot. This is my experience.
Cheers
On S-OFF the method with the file on sd-card and the bootloader to find it - it works.
Works with S-ON

Hi there,
I'm new to HTC DS. Tonight i unlocked trough htcdev.com, but still have S-ON with HBOOT 2.00.0002
After unlocking i installed 4ext.
But for cm11.0 i needed an newer 4ext.
So i installed it with your guidance. And it worked flawlessly!
Only thing is, that after a reboot it again finds the p88 file and it wants to update again.
I don't know how I overcame this, but after three times i got into touch recovery.
Flashed cm11 and all went fine.
Yh u must delete it off ur sdcard r it will ask to update everytime
Or just rename it

I would urgently need 4ext in the newest Version for my HTC Sensation.
Sadly your zip isn`t working.
Also not if I rename the File that my Sensation Bootloader detects this as Update.
Can you help me?
I wiped the ROM - so right now I don`t have a chance to install 4ext via a File .apk

Sorry for late reply, it doesnt detect or work coz this file is for the Desire S
Anyway download the one below, PG58IMG.zip, i just made it for you, its for the sensation and is latest 4ext recovery v1.0.0.6 RC2
Everyone else, file attached (PG58IMG) is for the sensation only!!!
Thank you very much jmcclue!
Maybe it would help if you could write a short Tutorial how you can generate this zip file for a specific Mobile Phone
I am very interested in it.

It depends really, u need to be s-off to use it and each htc phone has different file name,
htc desire - PB99IMG
htc desire s - PG88IMG
htc sensation\XE - PG58IMG
so if u extract that file ul see "android-info.txt + "recovery.img" and thats all u need. Take the recovery.img from the device u want to use it on and then get the android-info.txt file and use 7zip to zip the 2 files together and name it, for example PG58IMG and ur done. Simple really. Just make sure that the recovery is named recovery.img for it to work.
sounds great - thank you for your help

i have s-on and didnt even copy the file to phone, just extracted recovery.img to android sdk/platform tools and flashed it via fastboot, no problem.... just installing the cm11 rom to try it, and we'll see what happens.... =) gonna report if any problems with recovey...

In order to flash ViperS 311 on HTC Sensation you have to flash kernel
311 which is included in the downloads section for vipers 311 (link
provided above).
Unfortunately, this "kernel updater" is making changes which are
preventing some programs to work. I want to remove ViperS and flash
other rom,
Unfortunately x2 this kernel updater made changes which are preventing
flashing other roms. In fact - I am struggling to boot 4ext
Therefore I want it out and revert to the software which I had on my
sensation before installing kernel updater.

actually you didn't flash kernel updater
kernel updater is being using to flash the boot.img of the rom so you can boot the rom after installation(if you are facing bootloops)
what to do now
flash another rom as you know
after that put the boot.img of the rom in your adb and fastboot folder and flash it via fastboot command(i assume you know how to do that)
if you need anything else report

Well, now I'm totally confused so let's start from the beginning:
1. I had some customised rom and decided to flash ViperS 3.1.1.
Flashing 3.1.1. is impossible unless you use this "kernel flasher" which
is included in downloads on the official ViperS311 thread. After
running this kernel flasher I managed to install ViperS311 but for
example LBE Privacy isn't working, my SatNav program isn't wokring,
other software isn't working as well.
2. Yesterday I got a message on my phone that there is an update from
ViperS 3.1.1 to ViperS 3.1.2 which I installed. Unfortunately, after
updating to 3.1.2 the wifi isn't working. I want to remove ViperS and
revert to other Rom like Asianic or any other. Now this is impossible
because of the changes that kernel flasher from ViperS made to my
device.
3. I want it out and get my phone back as I need it.
4. I have just flashed stock kernel and managed to install Asianic, but
after booting into the system and installing ES File Manager, it went
into a boot loop. Is starts and reboots non-stop.
5. I did used ADB but really long time ago so I don't remember all. I
also use mainly linux so I will prefer to revert it to the previous
version without the need for Windows use.

ok
can you boot now in the asianic rom?
if not then follow these steps
1)boot the device to the bootloader
2)connect it to pc via usb(in the hboot screen must say fastboot usb)
3)now extract the boot.img from the asianic rom and place it in the folder where you have adb and fastboot files
4)open in that folder a cmd window and do fastboot flash boot boot.img
5)then do fastboot reboot
see then if it boots to the rom
Is superwipe recommended while coming from stock ICS or I should format all partition except SD Card? I am S-Off and 3.33 firmware.

Thanks for that rzr86, I'm starting to understand that now. It seems
that Kernel Flasher from ViperS 311 is a boot.img file with simple
program made by ViperS group that does what you mentioned, but without
the need for using adb and command line.
- However, I still don't understand what changes they made to that
boot.img to cause such complications... ?
Asianic installed correctly but than started crashing and booting in
loop so I replaced it with "Sense-o-Maniac" and this seems to be
working fine.
It doesn’t have any previous problems that I was experiencing on other
rom's.
I will report if any problems arise. So for so good.
I got bit shaky when I couldn't boot into 4EXT but it was just temprary

All kernel flasher does is "fastboot flash boot boot.img" NOTHING ELSE, and u can use it to actually flash any other kernel you want on ANY device!

Hi ! I just joined this forum and might be this is my first question
I am quite interesting to install this ROM (viper) and would like to take a shot. But, I worry about this "kernel flasher" issue.
Here is my sensation status :
-HBOOT 1.29
-Firmware 3.33.707.151
-Radio 1176A.3504.OOU_1124A.3504.31_M
-S-ON
-Bootloader unlocked
-Rooted
I would to confirm some questions :
1. If I want to install this ROM can't I just simply install it to the latest version of ViperS 3.1.2?
2. Which one will come first flashing kernel (using kernel flasher) or installing ROM?
3. Will it be working using my current firmware?
Sorry for this noob question. Really appreciate your help, guys.

1)simply install viperS ROM 3.1.2.use 4ext recovery and before flashing enable smartflash from 4ext
2)just flash the rom and do as i said in first answer.if you have bootloops after installation then use the kernel flasher or
do it manually by extracting the boot.img of the rom,place it your adb and fastboot folder and type the command to cmd window
fastboot flash boot boot.img
note: connect the device to pc into fastboot mode(in the hboot screen should say fastboot usb)

The hboot downgrade is only for european phones. There is no RUU for your asia model. You have another radio.img.

I think the problem is that my hboot cannot be downgraded, since the RUU issue can be solved using @russellvone 's method.
Anyway, thanks a lot!
You can update with a special firmware.zip. You need to backup your radio.img first, and replace it with the one inside the firmware.zip. Then you need to edit the model id in the android-info.txt of firmware.zip.
This must be flashed and then you can restore a european backup/rom.
Maybe @renanski still has his radio.img and can share it with us. He has also asia k2ul.

This way is only for a model with existing RUU!
Lets try another way:
Download this firmware.zip: http://d-h.st/69V
Make sure, the android-info.txt is correct for your model id. Replace the radio.img inside, with the one from russel, the rename the firmware.zip to PL80IMG.zip and put it on your sdcard. Boot into bootloader, confirm to flash. After that, install twrp recovery and flash my stock odexed rom.

If you are S-On, then:
flash Rom via custom recovery after you have conducted a factory reset wipe from within your custom recovery, to include the system partition which can be found in the advance options if using TWRP.
Then, wipe dalvik cache and cache after it finishes
Then, reboot your bootloader, and via fastboot, flash the boot.img which would require you to extract it from the Rom and placing it where your proper adb/fastboot files are on your PC. Use this command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
If you are S-Off, then just flash the Rom via custom recovery as explained above. You will not need to flash the boot.img via fastboot. Just wipe dalvik cache and cache after it finishes, and reboot your device.
I am a newbie,
I have read from many websites which include this website, after that i decided to Unlock bootloader -> S-off -> Root -> Up Room Venom 1.63

extract the boot.img from vipers rom and place it in your adb/fastboot folder on your pc
boot the device into bootloader, select fastboot and connect it to the pc
from adb/fastboot folder open a cmd window and type
fastboot flash boot boot.img

Sr, but i want to ask something.
Firstly, i have the zip of rom ViperS_1.6.3.
And when i extract it i just found the file boot.img (4,78MB). this file can not extract any more.
Secondly, "adb/fastboot", Will i create new folder with this name? or this folder existed?
if i must create a new one, Window does not permit to name the folder which the name has /.
Finally, you said that from adb/fastboot folder opened a cmd window and type
fastboot flash boot boot.img
i do not know how to do that.
Please show me the specific steps to follow.
Thank you so much, my experts.

yeah i mean take the boot.img and place it in the folder
you already have that folder in :c
just search the folder where you have adb and fastboot files and put there the boot.img
then from that folder press shift + right click
you will see an option open a command window here
then type the command

After following your steps:
C:\adb>fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (4904 KB)... OKAY
writing 'boot'... OKAY
I succeeded.
THANK YOU SO MUCH, MY EXPERTS.
I also have one question HOW CAN I UP TO THE HIGHER ROM FROM VIPER 1.6.3?
Wifi problem

i suggest to make a full wipe from recovery
then reflash the rom again and the boot.img
if you want another rom from viper team check viperS 5.2.1 rom
link in my signature
the procedure is the same as you did with 1.6.3
by the way since you are on S-ON i suggest to change your recovery to 4ext
it has a feature which is called smartflash
this feature is doing exactly the job what you did with the boot.img
so you don't have to do it by yourself:good:

the backup is located in the clockworkmod folder in your sdcard
from 4ext go to backup/restore->restore if you want to restore it
