Hi all,
I've been trying to unlock my phone so I can use it with another SIM. I got the unlock code by this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1693491&page=51. I was running Dirty Unicorn ROM, so it didn't work. It said in the post that I needed a Sense based ROM. I tried to install Venom S/C2 but I couldn't, I flashed boot boot the boot_onesc2 (because I'm S-ON) and now I can't recover the backup I did before the process. I don't really know how I should flash the Kernel, after or before the ROM. How can I get back my backup? Do you know other Sense based ROM's that I can use?
Thanks in advance for the help, Im kind of new in these stuff

I have unlocked the bootloader of my HTC Sensation and I rooted it, aswell as installed ClockWork Recovery. I was wondering if it is possible to install a custom rom such as CM7 without having to use revolution s-off.
I tried to flash cm7 through clockwork but it sits at the HTC screen when i boot. Any ideas?
Did you wipe before flashing the new ROM?
me too...
Unlocked with official guide, flashed cm, wipe all and flashed custom rom.
Stuck on boot with every rom...don't know why.
The only way TO boot is TO restore my nandroid backup
Hello, I got a brand new HTC Desire S (Android 2.3.5, Sense 3.0, HBOOT 2.00.0002)
I wanted to root my phone, but even with all the tutorials here it was immune to it. I decided to install Reaper v.3.0 ROM on it. After hard times I did it... But I would like to come back to my original ROM. I have problems with it, because I found one prerooted ROM here, but when I install it and run, it loops on the boot screen. Can't do anything with it.
Could anybody help me with it?
I am a complete noob with it...

Did you flash the boot.img separately from fastboot after flashing the ROM? If not, then you need to do that. Do a google search for fastboot flash boot boot.img

OK Here is how to do it..
From Reaper ROM zip file locate boot.img file
now reboot your phone into fastboot
then from command prompt run "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
reboot your phone and then it should work fine.
After that follow the guide here to revert to stock

Sorry guys, i think I wrote it unclearly
I mean Reaper works great. Just I downloaded the ROM from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/private.php?do=showpm&pmid=7191875
and that one loops. I did what you have said about that boot.img with all the ROMs. Doesn't work on that second ROM ;/
OKAY, THE PROBLEM IS OVER I FOUND SOMEWHERE AN ORIGINAL ROM WHICH I INSTALLED. EVERYTHING WORKS FINE!
THANKS EVERYBODY FOR HELP!
Hi my HTC inspire is running ginger bread 2.3.5 , I have unlocked the boot loader and have root actcess. My question here is how to root s-off so I can flash a custom rom?

P.s. if some one could explain shadow childs advanced guide in noon terms that would be awesome

You can flash custom ROMs with an unlocked bootloader. You just need to fastboot flash the ROM zip's boot.img each time. There are also more guides in the Desire HD forums.
thanks

Thanks a million. I totally looked at that guide to and didn't fully understand it till now.
Hey guys, dont know if this is a silly question. I have an HTC one s (S3 model) and I was thinking about to root my phone and install a custom rom. If i am unhappy with the results and wish to go back to my stock rom can i do that?
Also if yes, is there a way to kind of save my current rom and reinstall it again if needed?
Thanks guys !
Once you are rooted and flash a custom recovery you can backup your current rom using the recovery. With that you could go back to using the stock rom if you did not like the new one you flashed. There are many roms out there though so don't get discouraged if the first one you try isn't what you were hoping for. There are always more out there to try including many based on the stock rom.
So, I recently got an HTC Desire S with H-Boot version 2.00.0002 and thus I could not use Revolutionary Tool to root it. The alternative to HTCDev unlock would be to use RUUs to downgrade the H-Boot but I could not figure out which RUU to select in the list at shipped-roms. Thus I HTC Dev unlocked it thinking that the only problem would be having to flash the boot.img of the rom I install separately.
But when I flashed Cyanogen Mod 10 and flashed the file, the rom worked. I had to restart it but i found that no matter what rom i install, the phone always boots to the recovery! I tried it with multiple roms includind the Xperia rom, and roms based on CM. Then I tried the Virtuous rom with the same result. Then I tried the Saga3d rom and it rebooted sucessfully!!!
Thinking the problem was solved, I flashed the CM 10 JB rom I wanted again but it once again booted to recovery when I rebooted it. Seems like the only way I can make them reeboot is to flash the boot.img file again and again! A thread suggested flashing 4ext recovery but the same thing happened. I even tried to reflash the Saga3d rom but it didn't reboot this time!!!
So after careful but failed research, i created this question. Can anyone help me? I think a new RUU with an earlier (0.9*) H-Boot would help but I don't know how to pick one!!! I'll post some pics and hope anyone will suggest me an RUU or other solution.
THANKS IN ADVANCE.
(P.S I'm using a custom rom right now (reaper) cuz I don't know how to find the stock)
Anyone?

Hi,
Thanks for the response but the problem is I don't know which one of these RUUs to select. I can't seem to find where to look for what are their supported cidnums, or build number, or software number. Thats why I hoped a pro would help me select one. My cidnum is HTC_001.
Thanks again. :good:
