Hi,
unfortunately again the same kind of question but did not find a straight answer to it.
Can you help me ?
Many thanks in advance
What I want
I want to upgrade using the OTA ICS upgrade I just received on my phone.
But, it does not work. Starting the installation, the phone reboot then stay stuck on a picture with warning sign !
I want to upgrade from the OTA file as I don't want to re-install and configure all the phone again !
How-to ??
Shall I try to un-root and uninstall CWM ? How?
Or, simply install the received OTA upgrade file from CWM option update from SD file ?
Or, something different ? Which steps to follow
Or, the only solution is to reinstall full stock rom ?? worst case !
Situation:
unbranded Sensation XE
stock rom 2.3.4, Sense 3.0. Software version 1.73.401.4

Unroot using the Gingerbread RUU. Then flash the original HBOOT through ADB. At this point, on your phone, check for updates or install the ICS RUU. If that doesn't work , extract the ROM.zip from the RUU.

Hi usaff22,
thanks for the fast and straight answer...
Correct my if I'm wrong, but applying the Gingerbread RUU will reinstall the complete ROM.
Doing this, the telephone will be completely refreshed. All config/apps/data will be gone isn't it ?
This was precisely what I was trying to avoid.
If there is no other solution, then that's life. Cryinggggg....
Hello. So I have an HTC One S on the Telus network. My bootloader is tampered / unlocked. My carrier came out with an update OTA_Ville_U_TELUS_WWE_1.84.661.9-1.70.661.1_release_265425nbzfb5rjuc5cfhg0 that I was able to download but it will not install.

I relocked the bootloader but it just kept restarting into the bootloader, no recovery. I might be missing something but it just won't load into the OS now with it locked. I am using the ville-superboot hack atm...maybe i broke it...
Unfortunately i Cant help you with that issue. But can i ask when you downloaded that file. From I have desperately been looking for a stock os for my telus one s.
NVM: Found your post, Now all i need is an RUU for telus. This might be your issue too. is your rom stock? This is only an update so You probably need to be running the RUU rom.
I have a nandroid backup of the stock rom in a .zip file. I don't know how to make it into an RUU or else I would. I am on a stock rom also. I have it rooted and a custom recovery but I didn't load a custom rom on it. Just use the super.boot method to load the OS. Kinda works like a tethered jailbreak.
did you restore cwm recovery to stock recovery?

See first post
OK so for you TELUS subscribers out there, this is for you. I have a nandroid backup of a stock Telus system. This system is on the lasted update from Telus OTA_Ville_U_TELUS_WWE_1.84.661.9-1.70.661.1. The only thing I have done is obviously unlocked the bootloader and flashed custom recovery to make the backup. I have also included a stock boot.img and a stock recovery.img as well as the actual OTA update (don't think it's needed but it's there).
So, if you can get into the bootloader, you can revert back to a stock rom on TELUS with this backup.
I have tested it so I know that it works.
If you have any questions let me know

If you already have rooted your phone why didn't you make the root permanent? There is no excuse for for not being able to reboot without a PC.
Also, I would suggest not updating by OTA or RUU as it will update the HBoot and you won't be able to flash whatever you want after that.

That was a different issue with the boot.img I was using. That is not the case with this one.
We are you interested in updating via the ota or just making sure your phone is current with everything? You can do either, your best move is to avoid the OTA and do everything manually.
Is there a way to go back to the HBOOT-1.08.0000 if you did do the OTA?

So because I updated I was told that I can't get root access any longer. Well I was bored so I went to htcdev.com and reunlocked my bootloader, flashed recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.3.1-ville, and flashed TrickDroid_v7.1.0. Let the rom boot into the OS and updated my binarys in SU and they installed fine.
So if you also updated your device OTA and your on TELUS, you are fine...you can still flash custom roms with the new hboot without any issues.
I have added some screenshots
Cheers!
I don't think they showed up in the last post
ota update
Relock bootloader
Reflash stock recovery
Do ota update
Than unlock back
Your done enjoy
no, its the same as you said but before doing OTA run RUU
ota update
Flash back stock recovery
Than relock bootloader
Last remake ota process to install or
Supose to work
So this is my situation,
after using MaximusHD 10.0.0, I would like to go back to my stock rom. The problem is that I lost my nandroid back-up because of flashing another update version of twrp. I'm a little bit new to all this android flashing stuff, so I was wondering if anybody could help me?
I was planning of using a guild for this, which i can't post because i'm a new user, who says just to relock bootloader and use a RUU. But instead of using the T-mobile version, I wanted to use a RUU file for Europe.
Before I was going to start with this, I wanted to make a nandroid back-up, but CWM can't mount my SD-card.
So, how do I start going back to the stock rom from MaximusHD 10.0.0 on my HTC One S C4?
Ask for more info if needed!
[Update]: I found a solution for my can't mount SD Problem. So can somebody help me finding a right RUU? (I live in Belgium)
Try to flash TWRP, then you can backup.
And then flash an RUU

So, do I need to first Relock my bootloader before I run the RUU? Or is it not needed because I'm S-OFF?
im also S-Off and on Hboot 2.16, now to get back to 2.15 is this the right way ?
flash my backup of stock 3.16 Jelly Bean in TWRP
relock the bootloader
Flash 3.16 RUU.exe
Thanks
So, last little question!
What happens if the RUU gives an error?
Does your ROM is still the way it was before if you cancel the RUU after error?
Or is your ROM deleted?

It's really easy, you just have to reflash the modded version of TWRP for MaximusHD 10.0.0. All the other versions of TWRP or cwm won't work.

Yes I know its modded version , I tried to push it but it cant be done, Since I have CWM recovery, i cant put this TWRP one from maximus, it says failed: remote not allowed. I think it is because I relocked my bootloader, If I have to unlock it again, i wont be able to do it since cant use sd properly, so its doomed circle i think, need really big help guys . thanks in advance !
This is what i did.
1.oem relock
2. install org RUU, i downloaded one of the exe's and just let it do it's thing.
3. done.
4. rooted
5. flashed twrp
Okay,
So I just want to be sure about this.
Are these the ONLY steps I have to take?
1) Put device in Fastboot USB
2) Run RUU -> in this case http://www.androidruu.com/getdownload.php?file=Ville/RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.16.401.8_Radio_1.11.50.05.28_10.27.50.08L_release_301814_signed_2_4.exe

Relock the phone first, i don't know why, but i read on the forums that you have too when returning to stock.
1. in cmd "fastboot oem lock" phone now says "relocked"
2. from fastboot run RUU exe and wait.
3. done
In my case the RUU flashed me back to hboot 1.13, so install all updates from htc, then it updated to hboot 2.15.
So now you need to re-unlock the phone, and flash a new recovery.
If you want CM11 hboot 2.15 you need to flash modded recovery from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2528113
If you don't CM11 flash will fail.
Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427&highlight=tutorial and follow STEP 1.
That should re-unlock the phone.
STEP 2 flashes new recovery. Skip STEP 3.
After recovery has been flashed, boot into recovery, then press "reboot" and reboot to bootloader, if you flashed twrp it will ask to install superSU.
Now you are ready to flash anything again.
Is it necessary to re unlock?
Because i'm not planning on changing rom soon.
Thanks for the help!
You don't need to flash new rom, if you want to stay on stock you can, stock will still boot fine afterwards.

Which RUU i have to download for my phone?
So I recently purchased the T-Mobile version of the HTC-Sensation... since then I've been trying to flash a custom JellyBean ROM onto my device. I've rooted and flashed custom roms on previous phones but the process for this one has been extremely confusing. I've been mainly following this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1864053 I have the bootloader unlocked and I think I have S-Off, now I'm trying to flash a recovery image with the KSG utility but gives me a bunch of error messages that say FILE NOT FOUND - FASTBOOT.LOG and ACCESS DENIED and FILE NOT FOUND - ABD.LOG. I'm sorry if this is in the forum somewhere, but I've been working on this for hours and I can't figure this out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I was wondering if anyone had the original version that came on the SD card or if there is a way to gain S-off without using HTC sync? Or can I get Jellybean without gaining S-off? Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm pretty new this and feeling way in over my head here.

You are already s-off ,if you want to flash custom Rom flash 3.33 universal firmware (be careful when flashing check the md5 sum) after that flash 4ext recovery and flash new rom
Edit here is link for 3.33 firmware. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767.
sent from HTC Sensation 4G
@EmporerD
first you don't need a htc sync..
second your phone is already success s-off..you can see that in your bootloader state..
now i think maybe you already forgot the step to remove temp root from your phone after success s-off process..you can do that by running temp_root_remove.bat from the guide that you follow above..
after you had remove temp root from your phone..then you can continued to flashing a 3.33 firmware.. to do that..
just download firmware file from here....then copied that PG58IMG.zip file to the root directory of your sd card (the root directory mean is don't place it that file in any folder..just place it in your sdcard) you can copied that file with card reader..after that just put in back your sd card to the phone...then boot into bootoader..and wait until bootloader check it that file then ask you to updating it...just confirm it yes with vol up button..then wait until finish and ask you to confirm reboot with press power button..
after that you can continued installing custom recovery..
just download custom recovery.img file from here and extracted that zip file then copied that recovery.img file to your adb/sdk folder (the same place as your adb.exe and fastboot.exe folder)..then you flashing it through FASTBOOT with fastboot command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"..done..now your phone already had a custom recovery..that are can installing any custom rom...
hope this help..
THANKYOU guys. This helps a lot. I'm going to call it a night for a now, but I will try your advice tomorrow and post updates.
@JJeamy
So I tried to remove the temproot by running the temproot-remove batch file, it didn't do anything so I downloaded the PG58IMG.zip and updated it in the bootoader, now phone is stuck in a bootloop...?
Update: I tried to continue with flashing the custom recovery, but the dialog just gets stuck on "waiting for device" ...
Update 2: Installing the older drivers for fixed the problem of flashing the recovery so my recovery works but it's still stuck in bootloop. Unfortunately I will probablyrun out of time before I can get a custom ROM flashed, but thanks everyone for your help I will update my progress later.

You are on the right path my friend you flashed 3.33 firmware so you hboot version is 1.27 that's way you experiance bootloop , because you have gb rom with ics hboot, so next step is to flash custom recovery!
To do that you need to have SDK files downloaded (Fastboot , adb files) and when you have that in the folder you got the files you copy your recovery img and that you open command window from there and you get your phone to fastboot (bootloader that fasboot) , that you write the command in the command window fasboot flash recovery recovery.img and you are done!
EDIT: here is guide how to find fastboot and Adb files you need http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1152148
and for flasing custom recovery follow this guide step 2 flashing recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
after that flash rom
and when you flash your first rom do format everything except sd card before flashing, (and make sure the first rom you flash is not kitkat because you may experiance difficulties when flashing)
So I managed to get recovery going, and I flashed CM 11 with 4.4 with no issue. : D

Hi,
So, I just wanted to root my HTC One SV and now i only have HTC screen.
I followed the tutorial to unlock the bootloader (on HTCDev) It's OK !
I wanted to install CWM, it crashed, so I took TWRP 2.7.0.0 and it works
I installed superuser
I re-boot ....... and then boot loop !!:crying:
I made several manipulation, factory reset, etc ....
and i try to flash boot.img (fastboot)
I have not tried to install a new ROM, I just wanted root access
there is a progress, now I'm stuck on the HTC sight, no other message.
if someone has an idea I'm interested in :fingers-crossed:
I am able to go into recovery. But i don't know how to install Dumlock on SD card, for example.

Sorry, I need some english lesson too.
Your english is fine
I think you only need to flash a stock 4.2.2 rom from TWRP, SuperSu.zip for root and the boot.img of this rom with fastboot.
Use the link in my signature and you will find all what you need, linked in my Index Thread.
"Merci" for my english...and the solution
I'll try this evening - I don't need to change the CID number ? I think my phone is branded with my operator
You can't chage it, as long as you don't have a running OS.
Only then you can get S-Off, which is needed to change CID.
So...
I had some problem
I can't wipe with TWRP 2.7.0.0, it shut down when i do
so i take TWRP 2.6.3.2 - it works

E:Unable to mount 'int_sd'
Checking for MD5 file

I try again, it works, i don't know how
i use fastboot to flash the boot, OK
I reeboot the phone, everythings great
I shut down the phone, reeboot in recovery and flash the SuperSU, UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99
I reeboot the phone, and surprise......... boot loop
I flash the ROM again and that's all for this evening. The phone works now.:good:
Thanks a lot.
