My phone is unbranded , unrooted & stock using ROM 1.47.401.4.
I have downloaded the latest ota 2.10.401.4 and in that zip there was a firmware zip in it.
i renamed the firmware zip to pg88img.zip and put it in my phone's sd root.
After the reboot of the phone has updated the firmware BUT thats all.
If i reboot the phone stucks on the HTC logo but also i can go to the bootloader options if on the reboot i hold down the volume button.
Is there any way to restore the phone?
I try to flash the stock rom but nothing.
Can anybody help please??
Resolution:
If anyone has the same problem and has hboot-2.00.0002 & S-ON you have to unlock the bootloader via htcdev.com site following all the steps and flash the EXT4 Recovery via FASTBOOT and NOT ADB.!!
Then go to recovery and flash any custom rom.

It says locked but nothin is locked. Try to flash 4ext recovery over adb. Should work I think. Instructions in general forum .

Thanks.
i'll try and see whats going to happen.
Which update did you download? There are a couple available - odexed & deodexed.
Maybe worth trying which ever one you didn't download the first time?
Also are you giving it plenty of time to load? First boot from a fresh install always takes a long time.
Don't worry, you don't have a brick

HOW???
My hboot is HBOOT-2.00.0002 and the revolution to s-off is only for hboots 0.98.0000 & 0.98.0002.
Can you be more specific?
The only way that i can communicate to my DS is only via fastboot.
Can anybody help or the phone goes to the trash?? What should i do??
Waiting for stock RUU 2.10.401.4
I believe that the only way to restore the phone is to wait till the stock RUU 2.10.401.4 leak someday..
If anybody else can help me please do.

That would be a choice, but I would say you'll be better of to use xtc-clip to gain s-off, after this everything is possible or just give it back for warranty and let them repair it,
because it's still s-on, but just to know, what else where in the zip?
Could it be that you forgot something, have you tried a factory reset?

What did you download originally?
Was it an official ota update, or from this forum?
If you tried to flash the odexed version, many users have problems with this. Can you try the deodexed version?
Sent from my HTC Desire S
I was with the original shipped rom 1.47.401.4 S-ON & UNROOTED.
I downloaded via my computer http://liveimage.htc.com/OTA_Saga_S...1.47.401.4_release_217301kjfuq12qqm0wuhg7.zip
In that zip file there was another zip file called Firmware.zip.
I renamed the firmware.zip to pg88img.zip and i put it in the root of my sd card.
I rebooted holding the volume down button and the phone went to bootloader mode found the pg88img.zip and flashed it.
After that the phone goes only to bootloader showing

Is there any way to flash the OTA via fastboot since over adb i get the message device not found..???
Do you have a "recovery" option in the fastboot menu? If so try to go to this menu and see if adb recognises it then. But you have probably tried this already, right.
With adb, when you type 'adb devices', your phone is not shown, correct?
I'm not sure about getting S-off with the new hboot, I did mine with the old hboot.
You could try to download the deodexed rom on this page and flash that, but you need to get into recovery first.
Sorry, not much help I'm afraid.
Did you try to install these fastboot drivers?
Unfortunately i have tried everything so far but didn't work.
The xtc clip maybe is the only way.. Or if the s-off solution of revolution will support in future my hboot and do it that way.
I also noticed that when i tried to flash the stock rom i had 1.47.401.4 and was stuck on the HTC logo the update software said that i had rom 11.10.401.4.!!!!!
Since i flashed the original fota why the version said 11.10.401.4 and not 2.10.401.4??
WTF IS GOING ON.??
Well, I still don't think you have a brick - you can get into the bootloader, you just need your pc to recognise it via USB.
Have you tried flashing the previous hboot version you had? To enable revolutionary s-off?
Also have a look around the general Android forums, there are some very experienced peeps there who may be able to help.

You should ask this question on the XTC phone tools forum to raskal to be 100% sure that this new version is covered (see link on the XTC in my sig)
and as @tectas has said, there is still a possibility that you are still able to return under warranty and allow them to resolve it for you..
sorry unable to assist with confidence.
EDIT: see this thread that I created a while back that contains another link within it to lots of XTC owners around the world within it, but I'd confirm that the new HBOOT is covered before you run XTC http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1076937&highlight=xtc
I ask them. Thanks anyway.
The 3 things left.
1. to ask xtc forum if my hboot-2.00.0002 is supported.
2. to wait till revolution s-off supports in the future my hboot.
3. to wait till someone leakes the stock signed ruu 2.10.401.4
That's all unfortunately..
Hi all,
I just got a new Desire S curtisy of O2 in the uk and noticed the HBOOT of 2.00.0002 which is not listed by the Revolutionary 0.4Pre4.
I was just wondering if there was another way or unless im missing somehing obvious.
Thanks in advance
You need to downgrade and then use revolutionary.

Dude, you have just unlocked the boot loader.
HTC dev unlock process will not give you S-off, also can cause some warranty issues (don't be disheartened)
Now you need to download a custom recovery and flash it via fastboot.
I would recommend 4ext touch.
Then flash any custom ROM. The guide should have all the details.

I've done that, i used 4EXT_Recovery_v2.2.7_RC5.zip and thats ok. I cleared caches, Changed from 3EXT to 4EXT and then installed REAPER 2.2 then used update 2.2.1 over the top.
So i have 4EXT Recovery installed! I installed the ROM (off SDCARD) with this program and when i reboot it goes into a Boot Loop graphic and stays there.
4EXT Recovery Touch is just a touchscreen version of the one i used no?

Maybe a slightly naive question......but I obviously need to downgrade my HBOOT to achieve S-OFF on the phone via the Rev method.
Can I restore my HBOOT version back to 2.00.0002 without running another RUU through it or is there another method.
My MIUI ROM works OK under 2.00.0002 should expect problems if it it runs under an earlier version ?

Just reflash your unlock code from HTC dev install twrp then flash away
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Don't panic, this should be an easy fix.
Once you relock, you have to run a ruu or unlock again. But you're trying to run a ruu for older firmware, which is why it's failing.
Just push the unlock token again, and you should be able to boot to recovery. If not, push the recovery image again. I don't recommend CWM, even though it's been ported to this phone. That version of TWRP should work, just confirm that you've got the Evita version.
OK i have unlocked again and re pushed recovery TWRP 2.4.1.0
But I still cant boot into the recovery option..

did you verify you are unlocked now, or did you just assume since you pushed the token again?
Also, are you certain you're using the right version of TWRP and not one for another phone (like the endeavour/Tegra One X)?

Why are you relocked?
Unlock again and update TWRP, then try to flash a ROM again. What ROM(s) are you trying to flash.
Be aware that since you are s-off, you will need to extract boot.img from the ROM you are trying to flash, and manually flash with fastboot. You will need to do this every time you flash a ROM, unless you get s-off.
Also, I don't know why you posted to this old thread. Aside from the OP also having the Rogers version, it has nothing to do with your issue. Should have started your own thread.
I'll just clarify that when Redpoint said you need to update TWRP you should update it to TWRP 2.6, your current version (2.5) is very buggy. Also, he means since you are s-on you need to flash the boot.img, when you get s-off this will no longer be required.

Thanks in advance
You can't install older RUU if you don't do misc_version or GOLDCARD.For me that worked.
You have to unlock bootloader(HTCDev) and flash recovery.img (I use 4ext).

From what I can see you want to install new rom or repair old.You can unlock your phone and flash any rom but install RUU you need newer RUU that match your CID.Check this guide.Be careful bc installing RUU you install new hboot radio and everything else.Not just system.
For you it's better to flash new rom when you unlock bootloader.Don't forget to flash boot.img via fastboot after you flash rom and gapps.
Ok, guys, i think that i made a big mistake, i was helping to restore to stock the HTC evita of a friend. We download the latest RUU from att, relocked and run. the problem was, that we didnt check it if there was super cid. and it have it. BUT, usually if there is a brick i cant enter to bootloader right? I can enter in bootloader, and show

The phone has supecid: (bootloader) cid: 11111111
I know that usually is a brick, but i can enter the bootloader (i did a clearstorage but still bootloop) I dont want to make it worse. so any advice to fix it? I was thinking about unlocking again bootloader but probably it cause a brick? I read that the brick is unlocked bootloader + supercid +s-on, but the bootloader was relocket so maybe that save the device?. Any advice would be great

I think you need to unlock your bootloader and get S-off to proceed with RUU because you have superCid.

yes, the problem is that i cant load a rom, I mean, its bootloop. If i unlock bootloader and flash a recovery will be ok? I mean, i fear that unlocking bootloader brick my phone because I ran RUU with supercid
Unlock the bootloader again, flash TWRP recovery again, flash a custom ROM, get s-off, then you can run any RUU you want.

ok, i unlock the bootloader, I'm trying to enter hboot again because the volumebutton ihave little damage. thanks If something happen i will report back.
PD: S-off can i do it with an aosp rom? Or need a sense rom?
It shouldn't really matter, I've done it on both.
Facepalm S-off

Doesn't the Evita need to be s off to run a ruu, and with a locked bootloader?

No, but running any jb+ RUU with s-on and SuperCID causes a brick. Plus, if you have SuperCID, you need s-off to bypass the CID check that stops the RUU from running.

Uff, finally, but TWPR is weird, flash a lot in splash screen :/ but after a while works. I was thinking that i had a brick because i was s-on and supercid. I had a aosp rom, so right now I will do s off. Thanks so much
PD: Right know is in the boot screen of PAC ROM. The hboot doesnt matter for an aosp rom right?
You probably need to read the Evita FAQ thread in my signature.

yes i did, is not the first time that i install a custom rom in a htc, i flash the boot.img and everything, but had some weird problems, I will try philz recovery now (TWPR sometimes flash a lot in the splash screen, or freeze or just works normal). and i will download another rom just to be sure.
Ok, its finnish, thanks so much. First the RUU close with an error, but i tried in another account of my pc and works (the same error was before when everything start, is funny, maybe thats save my phone from a brick because I was s-on with supercid :/ )
Thanks so much again for the help
