[Q] What is possibility to s-off after JB ota update? - HTC One S

Hello! I need some answer from the experienced ones.
I would be very happy , to s-off my HoS device.
This is my hboot:
*** TEMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
VLE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.15.0000
RADIO-1.11.50.05.28
OpenDSP-v31.1.0.45.0815
eMM-boot
Dec 14 2012,17:10:57:-1
My cid is Tim--401 so not Moonshine s-off compatibile.
My problem is that I'm s-on,and it's seems that I can't do the supercid what is the first step for Facepalm process.
I red a lot about this topic, everything what I have found.
It appears that I got the hboot 2.15 version with Jb ota Update ,whereby the phone became write protected (the mmcblk0p4 file ),so the cid overwriting cant be done.
I tried it on ViperOneS 1.2.1 - 2.2.0,on Tricktroid 7-9.1 and on Jb Stock also.The drivers ,sdk ,the termal emulaton on phone ,hex editing works well.Already tried with adb commands on pc and on phone (with emulator).
Is it any solution instead of Facepalm and Moonshine methods or the only solution is riff/jtag?

Here is what worked for me to get supercid 22222222 then facepalm to S-Off. Easy as Pie! But that was for me, hboot 2.15. I take no responsibility! Lol

how you did that?
Have you done the supercid process with hex editing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26516911#post26516911
and than pust the command or just connected the phone then adb shell and su + echo -ne "22222222" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=1 seek=20 the command?
I tried the last option and I got this :

[Q] Sensation - Super CID - adb shell shows no change

I Have a HTC Sensation which I super cid and today I was using adb shell to find my sim unlock code using the following
adb shell
strings -n 8 /dev/block/mmcblk0p6
and under my IMEI I can see the orignal CID which is a Vodafone UK ID "VODAP001"
When using "fastboot getvar cid" it returns 11111111
So my question is, have I successfully super cid and if so why has it not be updated in mmcblk0p6

You can also obtain CID from fastboot mode:
- fastboot getvar cidnum
- fastboot oem boot
(bootloader) Device CID is super CID
(bootloader) CID is super CID
(bootloader) Backup CID is empty
(bootloader) setting->cid::11111111
- adb shell cat /proc/cmdline
Not sure which one is the most accurate one, maybe majority wins?

Hi,
I can half help you here.
I know that if you super cid, you will get the 8 ones (11111111)
So that bit is good.
I have no idea about the mmc thing.
Seeing that I was getting the correct response using getvar, I continued to flash a couple of different firmwares and ROMs without an issue. Would just be intersting to know if anyone else with super cid gets the same results.
Cheers chaps
I think this is related to this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21233579.
Anyhow, I'd say fastboot is correct.

[Q][Solved] Downgrade from 2.00.0002 and root HTC Desire S, install recovery

Hello,
I have HTC Desire S. I did HTCDev.com unlock, but again and again there are problems to root this device. I can't flash recovery via fastboot, hangs on sending files etc. Went through many guides and nothing:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194488
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318919

Always there is something like adb shell /data/local/tmp/zergRush > Cannot copy boomsh: Permission diened etc. problems.
I am totally lost. can you give me few hints how to or downgrade to 0.98.00000 or whatever to install custom recovery. Please! :s
Can you please help me root this device, install clockwork recovery and rom to MIUI? I have rooted another, my old HTC Desire before, but there anything went fine.

Guys, really need your help, please! Will pay dollars for help.
This is such a huge pain in the ass! Sorry for 2xpost.
I have followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399331

5. now type
adb shell /data/local/tmp/misc_version -s 1.27.405.6
--> this will change your version information

and problem starts on:
6. now you can doubleclick on the privous downloaded RUU and follow the steps. it may tell you from going down from version 2.xx to 1.xx but it is possible.
7. phone reboots and when it is up again you should have android 2.3.3 hboot 0.98.0000 S-ON
8. now just download revolutionary from http://revolutionary.io and create a beta key and start programm

RUU installer simply freezes on "Sending" data to phone. I am stuck there, sometimes it gives error [171], sometime shows that ''battery less than 30% remaining''. What the heck is going on? (I have locked bootloader before RUU install, because I have read that it should be like that.) (HTC Sync installed before RUU install)
You need to relock the bootloader with the command "fastboot oem lock"
So boot the phone into fastboot, then in cmd run above command, then re try the RUU.
Already did that, but with no success. Still the same problem. RUU installer freezes on "Sending".
---
As I enter bootloader ***Unlocked*** on the top is changed to ***Relocked***, so command "fastboot oem lock" did the job.
Try extracting the rom.zip file from the RUU, then renaming it to PG88IMG.zip then place that file on your SDcard root then apply the update in hboot.
I have dowloaded RUU file which is .exe, is there any RUU what you would recommend for me? (phone is not branded, Europe: Latvia) Maybe I am using wrong RUU also?
And as I will put PG88IMG.zip in to SD card, how should I apply the update in hboot, by running some command in cmd?
@Forwox
To get the ROM.zip from the RUU and to install via PG88IMG.zip
Start the RUU and once at the main page go to Start>Run and type in %temp%
Next find the newest folder and in there will be file called rom.zip. Copy this file to the desktop and rename it to PG88IMG.zip
Now copy this file to your SD card and start the phone in HBOOT (turn it on whilst holding volume down). It will find the file and start the update.
If that fails please run this fastboot command "fastboot getvar all" and post its results and the RUU you are trying to install.
Well, I got that rom.zip from %temp%, newest folder found rom.zip (rom.zip date modified is 2011.03.15) , put it into SD card, then entered HBOOT and it gave me:
SD Checking...

EDIT!!!
I have managed to flash RUU by copying it to SD card (writing .zip was the problem), flashed via HBOOT, but nothing have changed!)
(see attachement 2. when flashing 3., 4. when RUU is flashed)
Try to install the 1.47... (dont remember the exact number) using the installer... I've downgraded it with that version following the same tut as u did. Dont know if it makes a difference but give it a try... or maybe there's someone else who could help u (im not really a pro ^^)

i hope this help u..
YESSSS, FINALLY DID IT!!!
What were my problems? RUU was the incorrect versions, few problems with PC drivers, that's why fastboot recovery flashing didn't worked and the only way to go was Revolutionary, but it does not work on 2.00.xxxx HBOOT version, that's why downgrade was needed.

What have I done:
*HTCDev.com Unlock and then Relock, downgrade from HBOOT-2.00.0002 to HBOOT- 0.98.0002 is done, RUU installed, S-OFF made via revolutionary, MIUI ROM installed.*
Here is a little walkthrough from *pain in the ass* to total success how it was in my case :
------------
1. Installed all necessary android related drivers to PC.
2. In Desire S phone turned off "fastboot" option in Settings/power/fastboot. Turned on USB debugging Settings/Applications/Development/USB debugging
3. Switched on and connected phone to PC (Charge only).
3.1 If your HTC Desire S in HBOOT shows pink ***LOCKED*** go to HTCDev.com and unlock it.
4. Downloaded files from this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399331 (zergRush and misc_version ONLY!!!)
Unziped the downloaded files in a folder (e.g. c:/Users/yourName/Downloads)
5. In Windows went to Start>Run and typed cmd. Now you needed to relock the bootloader with the, so typeed command "fastboot oem lock" in terminal just just I opened. "I recommend to restart the phone and after that connect to Charge only again as before."
3. Run the Terminal again and changed into the folder where I unzipped files before (change folder with 'cd')
4. Now typed to the terminal (every line is one command!)
adb push zergRush /data/local/tmp
adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/zergRush
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version
adb shell
(IF THERE IS ANY PROBLEM WITH zergRush or BOOMSH, and only $ shows up, type this):
4.1 rm /data/local/tmp/boomsh
4.2 rm /data/local/tmp/sh
4.3 cd /data/local/tmp/
IF NO PROBLEM EXPLAINED ABOVE, THEN KEEP TYPING AFTER PREVIOUS adb shell THIS:
cd /data/local/tmp/
./zergRush
5. Then typed
adb shell /data/local/tmp/misc_version -s 1.27.405.6
"This will change your version information, but you need the same RUU version!"(don't type this in cmd, of course)
6. Now found appropriate RUU for device. I used RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.47.401.4_Radio_20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M_release_199410_signed and it worked like a charm!!! I have tried two other with no success on downgrade. My Desire S is non-branded!
7. Run that downloaded RUU .exe file, went to Start>Run and typed in %temp% Now clicked "Date modified" and found the newest folder and in there will be file called rom.zip. Copied this file to the desktop and renamed it to PG88IMG (adding .zip extension was the trouble maker for me! But you can try)
8. Copied this file to my SD card and start the phone in HBOOT (turn it on whilst holding volume down). The phone found the file and started the update.
9. Phone restarted and you I saw HBOOT- 0.98.0002 instead of HBOOT-2.00.0002 as it was before. If it is like that, then you have successfully downgraded your HTC Desire!
8. Now just download revolutionary from http://revolutionary.io and create a beta key and start programm. It will do S-OFF on your device.
DONE!
Now you can install any ROM by your choice.
Good luck and don't give up! It took me 3 days, but I didn't gave up.
I hope this report somehow helps users like me, who faces the same problems and storyline.
Many thanks to foX2delta and SuperKid who helped, and topics in this forum.
Glad it worked out, never heard of a RUU not working in this way (want main version, wasnt CID related). Only thing I can think of is maybe the RUU's (v1.28/1.47) each respond differently to the later versions (v2.10) or luck of the gods or a bad download of the RUU.
As foX2delta said

or a bad download of the RUU.

This worked for me too. If you've unlocked the bootloader though htcdev though, you HAVE to relock it, otherwise flashing the older RUU will give an error message. This makes me wonder if unlocking it is even needed at all.
You know what??? you're a life saver!
I followed your steps and managed to make it .... phew!!
I used the RUU directly though, it worked fine once the bootloader is locked again
Thanks!

No htcdev needed?
I'm a newbie, but I think you do not need to unlock then relock bootloader via htcdev. Doing this is basically telling HTC you are voiding your warranty. I am trying this method tonight and will report if HTC unlock is needed.
I had unlocked bootloader via htcdev.com and installed a custom rom. now i need to go back to stock rom so i downloaded old RUU
I tried the steps above and iam getting the following message.

Leave the 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 aside. In case you didn't put attention - they're just step numbers, and aren't part of the commands.
You're making an awful mess.

Try rumrunner s-off and when your finished with that reboot to bootloader then go into fastboot, open up a command window and type "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" (without quotes)
Did you edit that file via hex editor?

Unfortunately, I already tried Rumrunner. It didnt' work and mentioned something about the "cap is on too tight" and try a custom kernel or different ROM.
I also tried Firewater and after typing 'Yes' it just exited.
I'm pretty much out of ideas here.

Need security Flag adb shell commands for Unlocked, and Locked

My phone is S-Off but Relocked, I've googled and found there are commands that reset the security flags but not sure if they are exactly the same on the M8 as other devices, need help.
is this the correct command or is the seek number different?

[how to] change your MID without an eng bootloader

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
this thread is for the folks who wish tochage their MID in order to fully convert a device and recieve OTA updates. the method described here is not the only way to skin the cat,but as long as your careful the risk is very minimal, its quick and easy and doesnt require any hboot downgrades,eng hboot install,data loss,or having to run an ruu.
please note that s-off is required!

standard disclaimer: use this information at your own risk. it has been tested,but copying the command incorrectly could have consequences. if you melt your phone into a smoldering little pile of aluminum goo, its not my fault.
secondary disclaimer: please use caution what mids you try and change. some devices may NOT be capable of being covertable to other devices due to available radio bands. in these cases,conversion may result in a bricked,or non-finctional device and may not be recoverable. i dont have the knowledge of E8 to say whats safe and whats not.

-install drivers: if you have htc sync installed,you should allready have drivers. if not,you can install htc sync,or install these modified htc drivers from revolutionary (driver mirror)
-unzip your miniadb_v1031.zip file. this is native funtionality in windows 7. you otherwise may need a utility such as "7-zip" to extract,or unzip it. place the unzipped folder onto the root of your C drive on your PC. root means the top level,not inside any folders. so just copy and paste,or drag and drop the folder onto C with everything else that is there. you may want to rename it to "miniadb_m7" since youll be putting some device specific files in here.
-open a command window. on windows 7,click the start bubble in the lower left and type "command" in the search box. xp i believe is similar or the same. doing this should open a small black command window.
-change to your miniadb_m7 directory. type the following at the prompt in your cmd window:
cd c:\miniadb_m7
your command promt should change to "c:miniadb_m7>" provided you: 1)unzipped the miniadb_v1031 zip file,and 2)put the folder on your c drive,and 3)entered the name of the folder correctly ("miniadb_m7" in this case)
-now make sure usb debugging is checked in developer options(you will need to turn it on first),and plug your phone into your PC with a usb cable
-make sure your phone is being recognized- type:
adb devices
if your drivers are installed correctly,this should return your phones serial number. you should hear the "found device" noises when you plug your phone in. if it starts installing drivers,wait for it to finish before typing the adb devices command.
if you get your serial number back,then enter this command:
adb reboot bootloader
this should take your phone to the "fastboot" screen,wich is white with colored letters. this is one mode of your bootloaders interactive modes. at the top youll see fastboot devices as confirmation youre in fastboot.
now enter:
fastboot devices
again,this should return your phones serial number. you should hear the "found device" noises when you plug your phone in. if it starts installing drivers,wait for it to finish before typing the adb devices command.
if you get your serial number back,you can enter the following to boot back to the phones OS:
fastboot reboot
and now,youve installed adb/fastboot and tested youre phones drivers. if at either spot,you have trouble and dont get your serial number back,there is some sort of connection issue. use these steps to troubleshoot:
troubleshooting connectivity issues:
-try a reboot of the PC
-try different usb cables and ports
-dont use a usb hub
-dont use usb 3.0
-make sure nothing capable of comunicating with the phone is enabled and running. htc sync,pdanet,easy tether,and even itunes have all been known to cause issues.
-windows 8 has been known to have issues. try a windows 7 or older machine
failing the above,
-i use these drivers for fastboot and adb(donwload and run as admin): http://downloads.unrevoked.com/HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe (mirror)
failing that,try manually updating the drivers in the following manner:
-put the phone in fastboot mode(select fastboot from the hboot menu)
-open device manager on the PC
-plug in phone,watch for it to pop up in device manager.
-update drivers with device manager,pointing the wizard to the extracted
driver download folder from above
note that you can check the connectivity of the phone,and make sure drivers are working by in the following manner:
-open cmd window. change to directory containing adb/fastboot utilities
-adb with the phone in the booted OS,usb debug enabled,enter:
adb devices in a cmd window
-fastboot with phone in fastboot,enter:
fastboot devices in cmd window
in either case,a properly connected phone with working drivers installed should report back the phones serial number.

I haven't looked in to that,and for the most part it does not seem to be needed. I've converted m7_u to m7_ul variants without changing the product id and ruus, otas,etc work fine.
However... Just because you can,does not mean that you should. Folks have found that's its not a good idea to try and convert cdma world phones to gsm variants. For example m7_wlv to m7_ul.
So use caution in the conversions that you attempt

Hi DutchDanny,
Would be grateful if you could help me with a query. I would like to change my Indian M8Sd (mec_dwgl, HTC__038, 0PAJ40000) to change into EU M8Sw (mec_dugl, HTC__001, 0PAJ21000) so that I can flash the latest EU OTA. I have done CID/MID mod before and tried chinese RUU (this was not much of a success as the phone kept rebooting).
I am using the phone in the UK and desperately trying to get 4g/LTE. What do you think the prospects of success?
Many thanks.

converting to another variants firmware/software will NOT let you have different radio bands. this is mainly to run different stock software,and recieve stock OTA updates.
radio bands are at a much deeper level within the phone,and not accessible. youll pick up the same bands after a conversion as you do before.
as ive mentioned,be extremely careful what you do. trying to install gsm softare and firmware on a cdma,or cdma/gsm "world phone" or vice versa can cause irreversable damage and even hard bricks in some scenarios.
my advice would be if you cannot use your device as is,sell it and obtain a device intended for the region/carrier that you want to use it in.
