I was trying to update to the new firmware on my HTC One located on this thread and can't get out of RUU New firmware/radios/boot.img for s-off. I am S-off and rooted, Thanks in advance for any help. John
You're saying you're stuck in RUU mode? To get out just use the command fastboot reboot and it should reboot your device

This morning i pushed firmware 3.24 on to my Vodafone UK Sensation But even though i checked and the CIDNUM was correct i still got the CID Incorrect Update Fail message and now stuck in infinite bootloop, how do i now push my old firmware (3.12) through fastboot as i have tried but still get the same message no option for installing the new firmware? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Guys!
Did you SuperCID?
If not, you should still be able to do it through Fastboot. (That command isn't locked out)
Then Mike1986's firmwares should flash easily.
its still not letting me do it what would be the best firmware to flash back to? Links would help immensely only intending on rolling back to ARHD 3.6.13 2.3.4
Like SkipJacks said, verify that your CID is correct. Do you have the android sdk installed on your computer? Is so, type at the command line:
Code:
fastboot getvar cid
This will tell you your CID. If it's not all 1s then you didn't write Super CID correctly.
This thread has the guide for getting everything going: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
The reason that you're getting a bootloop is probably because your current ROM isn't supported by the new firmware. So get Super CID, put the new firmware and the new rom on your sd card, flash the firmware, reboot into recovery and flash the new rom, then delete the firmware zip, and you'll be good to go.
To boot directly into recovery and avoid the bootloop that your bootloader is causing, type (I think):
Code:
fastboot reboot recovery
If you can tell me what step you're at or where your stuck, I'll help you further. Good luck!
This is what im getting when booting into the bootloader and going into fastboot usb mode to write superCID :/
What happens if you run
Code:
adb devices
at the command line?
when i run adb devices it says nothing but i had to put it into manual fastboot cos i cant get into the rom to reboot it in the first place!
Take a look at this thread. It has instructions for carrier specific firmware updates. Maybe you could flash the firmware that has your cid.
The reason your stuck in an infinite loop is because the PG58IMG.zip from the failed firmware update is still on your card. If you replace it with one from the thread below and reboot maybe you can get the new firmware installed successfully.

I think your problem is that you are S-On. Follow the instructions in the dev forum to s-off your device.

Thanks For The Advice
But i cant S-OFF my devices Because only works on HBOOT 1.8.000 and below! im HBOOT 1.9.000
Update your H-Boot, Then S-Off.
You can't flash roms without S-OFF'ing
Good luck!
Yeah, you basically need to start from the beginning using those guides for s-off before you can start messing around with the custom ROMS. It's important to follow the steps exactly (no guessing), because once you have everything setup, it's smooth sailing from then on.
Hello Everyone,
I need to send my Sensation in for dust removal. I was running CM9, changed my CID back to BM___01 or something for bell mobility, where the phone came from. I then did the
Code:
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
and got a brick. I unbricked successfully with the unbricking project. Kudos to the devs of that.
I now have a problem. My CID is for bell, so can't flash anything else, error in the ruu.
My hboot is 1.27 and my radio 11.22.3504.07_M, so I can't flash any of the bell ruu because of error 140 wrong bootloader. The only RUUs for bell are gingerbread with really old hboot.
I think I need to s-off and change CID to get a newer ICS RUU on here.
3 questions:
1. can I s-off without any firmware (no recovery, no rom) on the device, so no adb
2. Is there any other way to get a booting rom on here?
3. can I revert back to the gingerbread RUU using some sort of hboot downgrade, once I have something installed? (rom)
Thanks for your help.

Hmm that's a rough situation you are in.. If you can't find the ruu that would be a problem..
First try contacting football.. For ics ruu of bell.. (football provides most of the ruu's.. He is the OP of pyramid shipped rom collections thread present in sensation development section)
Try changing Cid to a well know one
Like this.. What you do is
First reboot to bootloader
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001 (supercid won't work.. So stick with this for now)
Then remove battery..
Then reinsert it. Power on to bootloader
And check Cid
fastboot getvar cid
If this worked.. Great. Find a Europe ruu and flash it
Last .. Try htc-dev unlock.. If luckily you..got unlocked bootloader..
Flash custom rom..Then SOFF..Then change back Cid..Then flash the old ruu of your Cid..Then SON
To get a working rom
Sent from my pyramid.. Through blazing fast sonic waves
For future reference; S-ON is the last thing you do when sending the phone back. RUU needs to happen before that.
The situation you're in, you're going to have to HTC Dev unlock your bootloader, and fastboot flash system and boot, possibly install a firmware PG58IMG as well... hopefully that will be enough to get the phone booting. Then you'll want to S-OFF and flash the RUU (this will also set you back to ***LOCKED***), then you can S-ON.
You guys are so helpful. I will try this.
My utmost thanks,

Is HTC dev unlock reversible, and does it void my warranty even if I reverse it? does it leave any trace/can they tell?
Getting S-OFF removes all trace of it.

And then getting S-ON again will be like stock configuration?
No, going S-OFF changes ***UNLOCKED*** back to ***LOCKED***

yep...
if you use juopunutbear soff after HTC-dev unlock ..you will get locked/juopunutbear bootloader (instead of relocked )
then RUU (to make everything stock..and to prevent wrong SON brick) and SON again ..will be complete stock
Again, I am amazed by your helpfulness.
Thanks guys! you run the general section

I can't flash firmware because it says "parsing package" and then does nothing
I can't push a system.img because it says "too large"
I've tried ARHD, CM9, and stock zippified roms, and none of them boot. Probably firmware issue, but see first problem...
any tips?

ohk for firmware flash you can use this
copy the firmware zip (PG58IMG.zip) to the adb/fastboot folder
open command prompt from adb/fastboot
then these commands one by one
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU (black screen with silver HTC)
fastboot flash zip PG58IMG.zip (if failed while flashing in the middle ..be careful)
fastboot reboot-bootloader
that would flash the firmware
Hi guys!
I have some problem with HTC Sensation. It boots only till HTC logo. And nothing more! On this device isn't OS.
Some guys said that I need to install RUU exe file through computer. I did it but received error 130 (need other version of RUU, I think).
So can you recommend something?
S-ON, hboot 1.18.000, radio 10.14.9035.02_02
Thank you!

What exactly do you mean by "On this device isn't OS".Do you mean you haven't install some custom OS on your device or it has no OS at all.If you have erase the OS the bootloop is something natural.
I did a google search for your radio version and according to this I found answers only on some german forums.So your cid (as long as you are s-on) should be possibly a German or a European one.
You can download the latest Europe version from here and give it a try.
You can find your cid number using fastboot.Just get into fastboot mode of your hboot and give the command fastboot getvar cid.
If your bootloader is HTCDEV unlocked give the commands:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
After that your hboot should say Relocked instead of Unlocked.Then install the RUU.
You could also give it S-OFF using this guide (Does not require HTCDEV unlock method):
[GUIDE] Juopunutbear S-OFF NO HTCDEV UNLOCK | ROOT (1.2x HBOOTS)
If you are S-ON you can use a RUU only with hboot 1.18 in your case

Why exactly he should use an RUU with hboot 1.18?!
I know that the version of hboot can be upgraded normally but cannot be downgraded as long as you are S-ON.If you are S-OFF you can downgrade everything.Also if you want to install an older RUU and you are S-ON you have to use a gold card and you patch the version of the misc partition to an equal or lower one for the RUU you are going to use.

Hi,
Try THIS ONE
Did you unlock your phone with HTC DEV?
If not, then , DO NOT.
As the title says my phone is stuck on the "initiating swagger" bootscreen from my last ROM. So initially I was trying to try out a new 4.3 based rom, but eventually figured out it wasn't working because my HBOOT is too old (1.14.002). From what I gather in order to upgrade my HBOOT safely, I need S-OFF. I had unlocked bootloader and SUPERCID but never got S-OFF. So I tried to restore to the backup I mad in TWRP, but that wouldn't make it past the bootloader, so I downloaded another 4.1.2 ROM instead, which got me to the previously mentioned bootscreen and thats as far as I go. What can I do from here? I gone through countless times, wiping cache,data, factory reset then installing rom, the loading boot.img, but I'm stuck. Any help would be appreciated.
At&T htc one x
hboot 1.14.002
If you're s-on you need to flash the boot.img from the ROM zip via fastboot.
And yes you must have s-off to safely run the 3.18 RUU to meet the requirements for the 4.2.2 ROMs.

I have been flashing the boot.img through the bootloader via fastboot. No luck.
Which version of TWRP are you using?

TWRP 2.5
That's good problem, 2.5 is full of bugs. You need to upgrade to at least the 2.6 version. Here's how:
Download TWRP 2.6 from here. Put the file in your fastboot folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode, open command prompt from within fastboot folder, issue the following commands:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"
(the exact filename, minus the talking marks)
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you can enter recovery on your phone and try again.

Awesome, that worked. Now in order to flash a 4.3 mod I need to get S-off and then upgrade the hboot, right? How to I upgrade the hboot?
Thanks a lot.
Actually nevermind, I put hboot 2.14 on there and am now running PACman rom. Thanks again.
