[Q] T-mobile got bootloop after s-off - HTC One S

Greetings all. Please help.
S4, T-mobile (TMOUS)
What i have done:
+ debranding PJ4011000->PJ4010000
+ SuperCID 11111111
+ S-OFF by facepalm, moonshine, rumrunner
I try every kind of s-off and as a result: Bootlooping phone (black desktop, and in a minute - system restart)
Checked on RUU 2.31,2.35, 3.14, ViperOneS, CM10.
If i get S-ON, RUU firmware works fine
Please help, how can i get everything works?

Lock your boot loader and RUU to RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_TMOUS_3.14.531.11_Radio_1.13.5 0.05.31_10.30.50.08L_release_309489_signed_ICS_2
I know it's a TMOUS ruu, but it is reliable and you won't be keeping it.
After that, you should still be s-off, so unlock bootloader again, fastboot TWRP 7.0.0.8, root and then press forward with whatever ROM you want to use.

I've installed RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_TMOUS_3.14 - still black desktop and reboot after 30 seconds Should RUU work fine on S-OFF?

Okay, if my phone can't be s-off, can i install viperones, then retrun S-ON, and if i don't like viper install RUU again? (in other words, can i install RUU on custom roms while S-ON?)

You're welcome, feel free to hit the thanks button.
As for flashing ruu's while s-on, the short answer is yes. However, you don't need to flash a RUU every time you want to change Roms. You can just wipe between and flash away.
Lastly, be sure to update your radio before going back to s-on. It makes it much easier.

Could you be so kind and share a link. I found only guides/how to, but couldn''t find thread where there is comparison between 1.20 and 1.35 radio

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2709164 is the link for the 1.35 radio. This supposedly only works for non-us markets
For 1.20, which works for all, search the android development forum. I believe it is in there.

I got the S=OFF OTA 2.15

I am happy to announce that I got the S=OFF on OTA 2.15. I use moonshine http://www.moonshine.io method in Linux. I try in windows, but was unable to to remove the HTC Sync. It work in Linux. I use Linux Mint in KDE 14.
Can anyone else confirm this works? I have to wait until tomorrow to test.

I can confirm. I just finished it. I had a Soft Brick with error mounting SD Card. After returning to S-On I was able to return to stock with a RUU. After that was complete up and running, I used Moonshine and now S-Off again.
I just need to work on the signal issue created with the updated TMOUS Firmware.

Hey I'm in the same boat as you. Do you still have the signal issue? How are you fixing it?
I have phone from TMO_DE with OTA 2.15 and just passed the moonshine without any problems (previously, I couldn't make S-off becouse I can't do SuperCID)
One S Multi-Tool is a timesaver and so much easier. After I was able to S-Off again with moonshine I was still having issues with custom roms and the signal on stock. With the stock the signal disconnected constantly and with custom it had errors and would not load. I returned to S-On but was able to keep my SuperCID so I could flash another RUU. I ran a lower RUU which downgraded my HBoot. Then I was able to flash a custom Rom. I am keeping the S-on for now because it kept breaking the connection to the sdcard. The signal was still choppy but with the lower HBoot I was able to flash a different radio. I had the newest but when I flashed a lower version, works perfect.

This is the RUU. Will put you down to ICS and hboot 1.08

This is the radio. V6 is for S-Off Devices or those with HBoot lovver then 1.13. After your HBoot is set I flash the 0.16 radio, which is the same that is included with the RUU but it is an Aroma installer and gives the ability to adjust for T-Mobile and fix wifi partition. Works great.
V4 is for Hboots that are S-On and higher then 1.13. Resets after a ROM flash.

No and yes. It depend on your hboot version. For OTA with 2.15, there was no way to get the s=off as we could not do the supercid. With moonshine script, you do not need the supercid. I still have tmous cid. Different way to get the s=off and works.

You should be able to. With S-OFF, just use fastboot oem writecid 11111111

Moonshine is awesome. I used it to s-off over the most recent OTA, and applied SuperCID using the hex editor "1111111" method. Going to switch over to Verizon when my contract is up, and wont have to give up my ville_u :good: :laugh:

So has anyone gained S-Off with Hboot 2.15 using moonshine on a windows machine?
I did install latest JB OTA. but do have Super CID.

[Q] Revert back to stock

I am looking for a Stock T-Mobile Jelly Bean image that won't brick my phone. I tried searching for one, but I couldn't find anything or I found RUUs for outdated versions of HBoot. I am trying to revert back to stock, but I am sorta scared to do so with an outdated RUU. I have HBoot version 2.15 and Radio version 1.13.50.05.31. Thanks in advance.
Would this be the RUU I have to download? http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/1...531-10305008l-release-309489-signed-ics-2exe/
I would just prefer a nandroid backup of the stock image that I can just flash with CWM.
I downloaded the RUU, I just need to know if that is the correct one for my phone before I use it. I really don't want a bricked phone. I checked the MD5sum already and it matches, that is the only thing holding me back.
Sent from my One S using xda premium
I have ran that RUU with the same hboot and radio as you. Why do you think it would brick your phone? you haven't supercid and have locked your bootloader right?
(didn't download from that site though)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094414
Okay, thank you for the reassurance. I just am pretty paranoid about bricking my phone. I have been looking up how to use RUUs for the last day or so, I just couldn't find anything on how to select the right one. Thanks again.
I just checked out your link and I am downloading now. I do not have SuperCID and I will be looking my boot loader.

If you are on TMOB US then it's for you. Furthermore, you can match thr CID of your phone to that in the RUU.exe --> Firmware.zip --> android-info.txt.
You'll have to extract firmware.zip from temporary files when you run RUU without connecting phone.

I ended up using that RUU that was linked earlier in this thread and everything went fine. I just don't have the stock recovery. I guess that isn't that much of a problem though.

The RUU installs the Stock Recovery automatically. You don't have to do anything extra.
You can find stock recovery (if you want to keep it for any purpose) inside the RUU (extraction would require you to run the RUU and then extract the recovery from Temporary Files)
OR
you can find it in the forums.
Hmmm, that's strange. Oh well I guess. When I tried to go into the recovery it just showed a red exclamation mark with a phone under it. I don't really need a recovery right now. Thanks for letting me know where I can find it.

I believe that is the stock recovery. The red exclamation mark is telling you that you don't have access to it. Perfectly normal.

Yes, I think it will give you an error with that cid. Someone could correct me, but with s-off you can run whatever ruu you want.

So I should be able to run the RUU with lower boot like mine and it will upgrade the boot to 2.15 -
Is it true that with 2.15 hboot, modifying the CID is not allowed ?
Any reason why I should stay with 1.13 HBOOT and not go to 2.15 Hboot? Meaning any disadvantages of upgrading to HBOOT 2.15 ?
Well, say you updated your phone via ota & your cid is European or something. And all of the ruus for that CID are lower hboots. If u are s-on and and needed to ruu you wouldn't be able to.
But there is a guide to run a ota.zip for those people, so it isn't hopeless.
So not too many disadvantages.
In fact I just installed the newest Rom and firmware today. So my hboot is 2.16.
And the gossip is that update will be officially put out by HTC in a few weeks.

Remember this.
if you want to go stock again in future (warranty purpose)
some providers have only provided an ota (only ruu with lower hboots) when upgrading to jb. So downgrading gets hard
It's not that easy to flash an ota as is a ruu.
If your s-off downgrading is no issue.

[HELP] s-off with locked bootloader

hi everyone. my sensation is getting me angry for a few week. i can't flash roms or others using fastboot commands cause my device is s-off, but i still have the bootloaader locked. from the command prompt i always obtain the same message "writing boot...failed(remote: not allowed)". first at all, i unlocked my device using HTCdev, after i flashed my first rom i found the bootloader locked. second, i tried to turn my device s-off, but controlbaer crashed, so i didn't complete it, but hovewere i'm s-off. how can it be ??? at now, can i flash roms or other .zip just by recovery (4ext) ?? or how can i unlock again the bootloader ??? hope somebody give me an answer. :good:
If you are S-Off and even that the boot loader is locked there should be no problem to install ROM - via 4ext

Hi,
Look HERE

Try flashing this:
HBoot 1.27.1100 Patch (Go from Hboot 1.29.0000 to 1.27.1100)
This should give you an unlocked bootloader.

Hi,
I am not sure what to suggest.
People who flash this are normally locked and hboot 1.29
It works for them,so it should work for you
I do not think it would do any harm.
Or perhaps you could flash the 1.27 > 1.29 version first.
Then, go 1.29 > 1.27
How did your bootloader become locked?

You could try unlocking your bootloader (i am not sure, but this may cause brick).
JAM THAT THANKS BUTTON.
Happy to help.
I have 1.29 after flashing new radio and s-off and there is no problem using 4ext for flashing any zip so far

Or perhaps you could flash the 1.27 > 1.29 version first.
Then, go 1.29 > 1.27
How did your bootloader become locked?

Flashing a rom via recovery shouldn't change bootloader status. Either you flashed a new firmware, or did an ruu.
Besides, a patched hboot should enable fastboot commands.

Hi,
It is all explained on the thread.

SuperCID + S-Off. for unlocked bootloader Evita

Hi Guys
I am trying to get SuperCID, S-Off, then --> 3.18RUU and TWRP2.6.0.0 --> CM10.1 or 10.2
I have a phone that i Unlocked bootloader on HTCDev a long time ago. Rooted, TWRP2.6.0.0 running CM10.1 but because newer kernels require newer HBOOT so i am trying to get it.
I have TELST001 as CID
the phone in bootloader shows

This should work too:
Code:
adb shell
su
echo -ne "11111111" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=1 seek=20
Once you get Super CID, you can get S-Off using the method found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155071
which worked wonderfully for me just this morning.
Then, once you've verified that you have S-Off, you can update your HBoot using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2156686
I used the third zip listed, worked just fine.
If you do not have S-Off and you attempt this, the chance of bricking your phone is incredibly high.
When you get to green bar, as mentioned in the instructions, let it sit for a few seconds, and then move on to the next step without waiting for it to go away (because it won't...).
Once you're done with that, I would clear the cache using <fastboot erase cache>, flash your recovery software using <fastboot flash recovery "recovery software name here"> and then boot to that to flash your rom.
As I said, I just did this all this morning, and I'm happily running a rom that requires the updated HBoot. So best of luck!:good:
That's not entirely correct. It's not just the hboot you're meant to update. You really should run an RUU.

but when i go into recovery it gives me a big exclamation mark
so presumably the TWRP is gone
So i used goomanager to install. that didn't work.
there's no root (after RUU) presumably normal
what is the best way to get TWRP on, then flash latest CM10.1
Many thanks for your help!

Yeah just boot into TWRP, do a full wipe (cache/dalvik cache/system/factory reset), and flash your ROM (and gapps if it's an aosp ROM).

I accidentally flashed a ruu you while my phone was super CID. Now it won't boot. Is there a way that I could force my phone into fastboot? That is without having to do a j tag on it

[Q] cant ruu 3.18 or s-off my phone

first thing, sorry for my bad english
I have my att hox from an order version from 1.17 or something like that. i tried to upgrade my hboot by ruu but i got an error 158 image error right at the process of updating signature (relocked my bootloader). Then i tried to s-off by using the facepalm method but no luck.
I'm trying to install android revolution hd 31.0 but i got stuck at 30% or the older 22.0 at 30% as well and viperxl 3.8.0 final so im using 3.28 viperxl and cyn 10.1

You mentioned trying to install Android Revolution, don't do that, it's not for our phone. You need to stay in this device forum that you're posting in or you'll flash something that'll brick your phone.

Is HTC sync running? If so make sure it isn't. I remember I had this issue too once.. I can't remember how I fixed it now...
I think I just changed usb ports rebooted the pic and phone etc.

Hi !
Your wifi fix (Tesco ION 3.2.0) in the first page doesn't work with my phone because it's S-ON.
How can I flash this fix with my S-ON (its difficult to flash kernel with S-ON) ?

Why don't you just get s-off? And what fix are you talking about? Are you posting in the right thread?
