Hello!
Just got my hands on a desire S from someone who said they bricked it, i dont think it is though.
I can access fastboot/HBOOT but it doesnt seem to have a custom recovery installed, shows the stock recovery or download mode logo, the screen goes blank and vibrates 7 times.
Every time i try to flash anything through fastboot it gives me the error in the heading
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
The ROM just doesnt boot and shows T mobile logo indefinitely (must be a bootloop) but the phone doesnt have any Tmo logos on the body.
more details
SAGA PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-0.98.0002
RADIO-3805.06.02.03_M
eMMC-boot
I read about ENG S-off but i dont know what this phone has, maybe its just radio S-OFF cos its Tmo and doesnt have a recovery though i dont understand what the 7 vibrates mean either.
little help please?

7 vibrations most likely mean overheating, and this can't be cured by any means.
The phone is S-OFF, but doesn't have Engineering HBOOT - so you can't use fastboot, it won't allow you (just what it says).
Your best bet is to try a stock RUU and see if it helps.
Download a PG88IMG.zip from an eng hboot, copy it to root of sd (cardreader), boot to bootloader and let it do his job.
Afterwards delete the zip boot to bootloader once more and flash a recovery with fastboot.
I would use a ruu only if those steps fail.
Swyped because PC is under full load or to far away

Hey Tectas I tried your method,
went here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178001
and got the first radio which had the same number as mine ie this one
From the 1.31.832.3 RUU:
20.28d.30.0805U_3805.04.02.01
says cid incorrect.
shall i try all the ones with 3805 in them? cos i really have no clue which one is right for me considering i dunno which RUU is compatible with this phone

No, not radio, leave it untouched yet, the hboot is what you need
Check my signature, I personally would recommend this one

even for this PG88IMG.zip which is the 1mb hboot file it says cid incorrect update fail press power to reboot

Do you know from which regions your phone is?
Try in fastboot : fastboot getvar all, and Google your main version then download the appropriate file from this link

Once you are sure you have the right RUU, you might have to make a goldcard to get rid of the CID error
The whole point of having "right" RUU is to avoid this error - having RUU for his specific region gets rid of CID error message. Otherwise he just needs any RUU and goldcard.

I have what seems to be the right RUU..
now when i try to install it, the RUU installer hangs and the phone also hangs.
I should reiterate that my phone DOES NOT BOOT into the rom, has what may be boot loop error. If i could access android i wouldnt be asking any of these questions as from in there all this is easy peasy!
i'm trying booting into Hboot and fastboot to install this. as far as i remember it doesnt work here so how else can i go about it?
once again, no custom recovery, no eng bootloader, no working android rom
Thanks to all of you who tried to help by the way

3 possibilities:
1. Let the ruu run without attached device till the only option is to close the program, search in your temp folder for the rom.zip, copy it to another folder, close the program, copy it to sd and try to flash it the same way you did before with the hboot (rename the rom.zip to PG88IMG.zip before you flash it)
2. Do the same like at 1. but create a goldcard before
3. Do the same I described before with hboot, but create a goldcard before

If the RUU installer hangs - your chances aren't too good.
If it hangs on "rebooting to bootloader" - boot to FASTBOOT manually and start RUU while in fastboot mode.
If it hangs updating - chances are you're another case of faulty eMMC.
gave the phone to some guy in the market. says he'll take 5£ to open it and check it out and let me know whats wrong.
the RUU rom.zip file when renamed to pg88img.zip or whatever does work as its the only zip file it detects in hboot mode,
it starts the update, heats up like an angry mountain and then sucks its battery off..
thanks you guys for all the help. I'll update you on what was the actual problem when this guy tells me so you know what these symptoms are for in future
Have you tried using the gold card? As it has already been stated that it should get rid of the wrong cid issue.

I've bought a phone which has S-OFF, ***LOCKED***, which I'm trying to root. I've seen many guides, read them but they are all from the point you have S-ON. I've tried manual ADB install of CWM but that fails, permission denied.
Any advice before I brick it ? The phone seems to be in a quasi state...not sure how I progress.

are you sure you are S-OFF? If so, you can try a pre-rooted rom.(Flash a recovery first)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183684
Have the same problem. It says ***Locked*** S-OFF. Don't know what to do. Before made RUU I have rooted my phone succesfully (one click root), but now can't do that in the same way. ;/
I wasn't sure if S-OFF was really off but everything I tried was failing. This was from a Win7 64 bit, I switch to Win7 32bit PC and SuperOneClick worked then!
I've got root, CWM recovery installed and all sorted so thank. Not sure why 64bit Windows 7 was causing a problem, nothing indicated it was but a 32 bit pc everything worked perfectly.
How you switch to windows 32bit?
Generally, when S-OFF, the only thing needed to be able to do just about anything - is to use a special PG88IMG.ZIP that includes latest reengineered bootloader and custom recovery.
I'm not sure if there is one in this forum, but it's easy to create.

Where could I get this? Or how it is called? Because I have no clue what I need to enter in google.
To begin with, search for PG88IMG.ZIP to understand, what it is and what it does.
You need to unlock the bootloader, the ***locked*** indicates its still locked. Use HTCDev or some other tool to unlock your bootloader. Not sure how S-off works for this phone, it might have just been re-locked, so try "fastboot oem unlock" i think is the command and it should unlock
Then you can flash a recovery image and then flash a zip file containing the su binary and app via recovery

Just flash a ROM from the INDEX
Do you have a custom recovery?

Please, do not give suggestions when you don't know how things work - see the bold part of your own post. You wouldn't want someone that doesn't know exactly how motor works to fix your car, would you?
If he has S-OFF, there is no need to unlock bootloader and void warranty. Moreover, having S-OFF is better and more powerful than having unlocked bootloader. All the info is in the stickies, and you should go read them too.

Dont talk to me like i dont know what im talking about. Ive rooted and messed with plenty of phones. I based my advice off of my experience. Just because i dont know all of the specifics of a particular device doesnt really matter, all of HTCs devices operate basically the same. So maybe you shouldnt be worried about me and more worried about helping this guy like everyone else is. Its not up to you to decide if he wants to take my advice or not, thats for him to decide.

You basically wrote that you don't know what you're talking about, and by suggesting to unlock bootloader on S-OFF phone you made it obvious beyond any doubt. Indeed, all of HTC devices operate the same, all of HTC devices have bootloader security, all of them more or less since eMMC introduction block write access to /system in bootloader, all of them can be unblocked by turning S-OFF or unlocking the bootloader.
Unlocking the bootloader voids the warranty and prevents /boot from being flashed from recovery, subjecting the user to constant kernel flashing through FASTBOOT for any ROM he wants to flash, while S-OFF allows full and undisturbed recovery functionality. Thus, bootloader unlock is inferior solution that should be avoided if possible, and suggesting it for a phone that already has S-OFF is BAD/not smart/pick whatever negative adjective you want.
Of course, all that is written in stickies, as I said, but I guess that you can't be bothered reading before writing, and when suggested to do so, prefer going all defensive. Yes, you don't know what you're talking about. I'm glad you rooted zillion devices, if you think it makes you know everything - read the info above again.
I already did my part to help the guy, and I don't have enough time for people that want everything laid out for them. If he's willing to use some Google and read - he'll get to his solution using my pointer, or somebody will point him to the relevant guide (and there is one in INDEX thread, AFAIK). The old debate of giving someone a fish vs teaching him fishing. I picked my side a long time ago.
Guys, don't be angry at each other
Thank you, you both helped me a lot. Big thanks )

Lucky!
Looks like you're S-OFF'd and have SuperCID, which means you should be able to install any rom you like.
If I'm guessing correctly you have ENG hboot 2.00?
Just ignore the ***Locked***, as you're S-OFF'd you should do anything. How did you try to flash cwm?
Fastboot flash recovery?

VLE: Ville: HTC One S
S-ON: security on
Radio: your radio Version
You have to lock your bootloader.
Download the all in one toolkit which you can find in the development section. There are all necessary files.
Be sure you have installed the HTC sync driver.
1. Connect your mobile To your pc when your are in the screen where you can see hboot version etc.
2. There should be "hboot USB" in blue.
3. Navigate to hboot and press power.
4. It should change to "fastboot USB" in red.
5. Then open the all in one toolkit on your PC.
6. Open the folder where ADB and fastboot exe are located.
7. Press shift and right click somewhere in the folder and open the command line.
8. Then type in "fastboot oem lock"
9. If you take a look to your phone you should see that the "unlock" changed To "relocked"
That was the first step.
10. Go To the development section in this forum and look for the wwe europe ville ics ruu 2.31 or sth like that.
11. Download the file
12. Doubleklick the file
13. Follow the instructions
14. Let the ruu install everything
15. If everything works fine you should be on official ICS 4.0.4 with Sense 4.1 now
Good luck!
I hope I wrote an easy understandable instruction.
If u experience any problems feel free to post it here.
I'm sure I or someone else can help you.

glad to hear that I helped you.
Tampered means that someone already changed something on the phone (unlocked/relocked/custom recovery)
A comparison should be.. if you bought a new pc and if you open the case you have to break the seal. The "Tampered" say that you had break this seal on the phone (e.g. by unlocking the bootloader)
S-ON means that the security flags are on. Its a system protection so nobody can manipulate system data.
S-ON + locked bootloader -> you can do nothing, no root, no custom things
S-ON + unlocked bootloader -> you can flash custom recovery, root, custom rom (you can see an unlocked bootloader as a compromise between S-ON and S-OFF
S-OFF -> you can do everything what you want, change bootloaderGUI, bootanimations, splashscreens.
Unlocked means that you bootloader is unlocked. If its locked you cant install custom recovery, root and custom firmware. It has to be locked when you install a RUU.
You cant find your HBOOT version in your phone settings because its the version of the bootloader.
the bootloader is independed from the rom you are on. Its like the BIOS from your PC and your ROM is Win7 where you either cant find the bios version.
Radio is the module which is responsible for mobile data etc.
no/wrong/corrupt radio = no network/no signal
openDSP .. i don't know
eMMC boot, I guess that this is the partition where the bootloader is located.. but I'm not sure.
Mar 21, 2012, 16:01:09 is the date when .. difficult to explain .. when the development of the RUU was finished?
if I wrote something wrong please correct me.
Thanks a lot for this very helpful information. Appreciate your help. Kind of person like you are the reason these forums are running successfully and helping novice people like me. Thanks again.

I'm having same problem with getting back on stock firmware...
After trying to flash into CM10, i got stock in CM boot logo.
So trying to get back to original using RUU.
But it just looks like I can not get right one...
I did everything like in posts above, and when I enter "fastboot getvar cid" I got "HTC_Y13"
Any idea which RUU is correct for that?
I'm still trying, so maybe it will be fools luck... Or maybe someone can put me on point?

So everytime I start RUU, in the screen Current information about your Android phone" "Image version" is blank and the one with "Verify that you want to update the ROM version" "From Image Version" is blank...
When I push "Next" it goes "Checking", then "Rebooting Bootloader", "Erasing User Data" and "Sending".
When it comes to "Updating Signature" I'm getting error code...
Phone is bought in Norway, and by checking cid: HTC_Y13, I can see that it's HTC-Nor. So which one of RUU's I have to use?
I also tried to flash zip RUU, using One_S_All-In-One_Kit_v3.5 with same no luck...
Really don't know what to do... Any help would be appreciated...
Thank you in advance!

When I try to install CM10, everything went fine, but when It have to reboot it just stuck in CM booting logo loop...

Firstly, I would recommend removing part of your IMEI and Serial Numbers from your post, it could be used in bad ways by other people.
Ville is the HTC One S with a Snapdragon S4 chipset, clocked at 1.5GHz (dual core) otherwise known as z520e. (You have this phone)
VilleC2 is what became of the HTC One S when HTC ran out of Snapdragon S4 chipsets in many parts of the world due to a shortage. It has a Snapdragon S3, clocked at 1.7GHz (dual core) otherwise known as z560e.
VillePlus is a Special Edition version of the HTC One S, only available in Taiwan. It has the same processor as the Ville, except comes in a white body instead of the normal grey or black options and has 64GBs of internal storage. The other two have 16GBs internal storage. This phone is quite rare.
You should try RUUs only that say ville, and not VillePlus or VilleC2. These won't work and may even irreversibly damage your phone.
OTAs only work when you already have a previous firmware version. Let's say you were on ICS, a Jelly Bean FOTA is released (firmware over the air) and installs ("flashes") on top of your existing ICS installation, keeping your apps and data.
RUUs wipe all data and wipe everything on the phone when installing through a USB connection.
Could you specify what error code you get on the RUUs?
----
The reason why CM10 didn't boot is because you didn't flash the boot.img.
You need to extract the boot.img from the CM10 zip and put that into your "working folder" (the folder with adb and fastboot files in it)
Open up a command prompt / terminal in that folder and type
fastboot flash boot boot.img
when you are in FASTBOOT USB mode in the bootloader.
Go to Fastboot. Plug in your USB with the phone. Now, ctrl and r --> type cmd --> cd to C:/where your adb is --> fastboot read cid
Then type the 8 digit string that you get. It would help us determine your network provider.

Now i've been running cyanogenmod 10 stable since I started rooting etc...
And it's been amazing, but now since there has been a release candidate for 10.1, I was looking into updating it.
I ran into an issue where my boot-loader was not accepted , therefor i would run into an error on Clockwork mod stopping me from flashing 10.1
The bad thing was that I erased my previous installation without backing up the stock and CM10.
So now i'm left with no system. Though I can get into Fastboot and ADB via recovery.I
For some reason if I try to flash CM10 (The rom and the boot file) the cyanogenmod logo will continue spinning.
I tried to fiddle around with my RUU afterwards because I currently have S-On. But i later learned that i need superCID.
^(Which i learned that you need your phone on to alter it to the 8 "1"s) Which i cant do because i have no system.
I might have already altered some files guessing that my boot-loader is named "dirty-d92cc658" and im afraid that I messed up something internally.
So anyways. Im here with my Ville S4 plugged in on fastboot not knowing what to do.
Any Help would be amazing , thank you
Did you try a RUU for Rogers? Not sure if there is one but try to find a RUU that matches your cid

If you have a RUU for your specific phone, no, you just need to lock the bootloader.
Have USB debugging turned on (unless running ruu when your phone is in fastboot usb mode)
If you can't find one for Rogers, then yes you have to be super cid to run another RUU.exe (after that change your cid back so an OTA update doesn't brick your phone)
If your phone is on Jellybean, you need to run a JB ruu, if it's Ice Cream Sandwich it won't run. Unless you are supercid I guess.

How can I superCID my phone if I cant boot into the rom?
I've never superCid, can't help you there.
Good news is you can get into bootloader still.
You could fastboot flash a boot.img and flash a rom in recovery.
Just need to mount usb storage in recovery to put the rom.zip on your phone.
Edit: reread that you tried that but rom didn't boot. Hopefully you waited 5-10 min for first load.
try wipedata/factory reset from CWM like 3 times then flashing?
Good luck to ya.
Edit 2: kind of wondering if you can run the Rogers RUU with that low of a bootloader (version-bootloader: 1.13.0000)
Maybe someone can chime in, because that would be nice not having to SuperCid.
Alright so I seemed to get it running on CM 10 by switching recoveries and flashing it's boot.
Then I was able to superCID the phone, which then lead my into S-off'ing it.
Then I was able to update the hboot firmware to 2.15
Cleared the cache and installed the new kernel and flashed cyanogenmod 10.1 rc
Everything went well after that. I did run into a laggy issue, which I then fixed by switching the CPU governor to ondemand instead of interactive.
Thanks for the post guys
My phone has been having audio issues and I've ruled out everything on the software side.
Going to send it to HTC but I need to get back to stock obviously. Is there a specific order I should do these in? How does one get back to s-on? I assume removing super cid would be just like getting it only change the cid to HTC_001 or whatever, right?
How do I unroot?
And then of course I need to relock the bootloader, which if I'm not mistaken is as simple as running fastboot oem lock, right?
I basically need a step by step guide. I've searched around but haven't found everything exactly as I need it. Perhaps this could become a useful thread for others, with everything in one place.
Any help would be great, thanks in advance.

IIRC the RUU for your device reverts all of that. Not 100% sure about the S-ON though.
I've read somewhere in another guild that it's necessary to first Relock your bootloader (using the oem lock command) and afterwards use the right RUU for your device...
I thought this could be helpful
Thanks for the tips.
Since I'm super cid, I can flash any RUU at this point. Any idea if locking my bootloader first will cause this to not be the case?

I think to get S-OFF you have to use for example the All-in-one toolkit, I don't think relocking your bootloader will cause a S-on... But I think others may have more info about that. Planning on running an RUU for the first time myself

Yeah, I'm assuming I'd have to do some more then just run the RUU.
I'd gladly give it a go but like I posted earlier, I'd like to know if there is a certain order to do this in. If I run the RUU before removing s-off, will that make things easier? Harder? No different?
Anyone?
Personally, I think it's easier to first run the RUU and then go back to S-ON, because while you're S-OFF you won't have problems with the RUU for your CID, and the All-in-one kit says that you need to run stock Rom and stock recovery before you can S-OFF. So actually, I don't think it's recommended first going S-ON and then running an RUU.

Hmmm, all right. I've never used the all-in-one kit but I've noticed it has a "back to s-on" function so I'll give it a try. I'm on Linux so I need to run it in Wine (Windows emulator) so hopefully there's no hiccups.

1)If you have put on a modified HBoot (such as to remove tampered or red warning) return to stock.
(only added this because if you S-on with modified HBoot it will brick your phone)
2)Run RUU.exe
3)Reset lock status flag
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155955
4)S-ON your phone

Edited that, If anyone notices a problem please post.
So, little question for myself.
Do I need to first Relock my bootloader?
Or can I just go and run an RUU? (I'm S-OFF)

No, it doesn't need to be locked when S-OFF.
The most important is running the RUU that matches your CID. (since you are s-off it is easy to change the CID to whatever you want, and thus run whatever RUU you want)
i have bought a used htc one s and it had sense 5.5 based JB4.2.2 rom but i want to downgrade to stock firmware. kindly tell me which RUU i should use and how should i procede.
