[Q] Bootloader Help HTC Sensation XE

Hi all,
I successfully unlockes, rooted and S-off my Sensation XE and I think I also SIM-unlocked the phone.
To be able to do this, I had to downgrade my bootloader from 1.29.0000 to 1.17.000 to be able to S-Off it.
I also restored the original backup from the SD card. I never had any errors.
The poblem now is that the phones gets into endless cycles of rebooting and I'm not able to switch it on. I can still asily get into the bootloader. I think the problem lies in the Bootloader version and I tried to find my phone's up-to-date hboot version (I guess it has to be 1.29.1111 now). Any help would be highly appreciated. Links and easy explanation as I'm still a noob please.
Many thanks.

Hi, I used the same link in the begining of this post, added by malybru and downloaded the firmware 1.17 initially and flashed it. I then followed this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1864053 (only the S-off section though as I've rooted and unlocked my phone earlier via HTCDev.com). Then I restored the backup.
when it didn't work as decribed in the begining of my post, I downloaded the newest firmware, but my mistake was that I left the old file (1.17) in the download folder on my pc which led to automatic addition of ''(1)'' to the end of the newest firmware file name. this led to the phone not seeing it as a firmware file and hence not using it.
When Malybru posted the same link, I had more confidence in the file and retried the file 1 more time and this time, I noted the change to the firmware name and corrected it. It all work like a charm.
Good luck.

but the OP said, he had to downgrade first before to be able to S-Off it.
so that mean, he was S-ON when downgrading right?

Sorry for the confusion. On careful recounting the steps I took, I did indeed S-off it first, using the link in my last post before being able to downgrade. The reason I downgraded was because when using the file PG58DIAG.nbh, I used to get an error msg about S-OFF, so I S-offed it but I kept getting the same error msg; so when researched online, I noticed that another cause for this error could be the wrong firmware so then I had to downgrade...
So I guess you're right rzr86.

[Resolved] Problems updating X920d Android 4.3 version 3.15.707.4 from 2.33.707.3

Resolved!
Apparently it was due to the fact that I installed Xposed Framework that causes the update process to fail.
I try to manually update the OTA.zip via stock recovery and found out that the process stopped at
"assert failed apply_patch_check( /system/bin/app_process."
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Further checks showed that Xposed replaced the app_process file and causes it to fail checksum. I then copied /system/bin/app_process.orig back to /system/bin/app_process.
After that, the update was a breeze. The recovery used was from 3.15.707.4 (extracted from OTA.zip).
I've also S-OFF and Super-CID during my testing process.
If your update process stops after 25%, usually some checksum error has happened. Use manual update to determine the error message.
________________________________________________________________________
I'm having a problem updating my Butterfly to Android 4.3 from 4.2.2
My current firmware is 2.33.707.3 and the upgrade version is 3.15.707.4.
On my current phone, I have unlock my bootloader, flash recovery to TWRP 2.6.3.0 as well as rooted it. Due to inexperience, I did not backup my original recovery.
As per gleamed from this forum, I've tried to flash recovery from other stock ROM to proceed with the OTA update.
Steps taken:
Clicked Install now on the OTA message
Phone reboots to recovery
Phone icon with Green exclamation mark appears
Bottom part blue progress bar appears
Upon 30 to 40% progress, the screen changes to Red exclamation mark and update is stopped.
Edit: Did a Factory reset, problem remains.
I've tried the following recovery from other stock ROM without success.
Recovery from 3.15.707.4 (extracted OTA zip in phone's Download folder)
Recovery from 1.19.707.1 (extracted from DLXB1_U_JB_45_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.19.707.1_V0.0)
Recovery from 2.28.709.2 (extracted from OTA_DLXB1_U_JB_50_S_hTC_Asia_TW_2.28.709.2-1.18.709.3)
Recovery from 1.12.707.1
Recovery from 2.33 (from @Bassie39's OTA collection)
Recovery from 2.28.709.3
I've searched high and low for stock Recovery from 2.33.707.3 but unable to locate it.
Any tips or suggestion apart from S-OFF and update firmware, PL99img.zip update via bootloader, look in the OTA collection?

@bluheart, How do I go from S-OFF to update my OTA? Is Rumrunner better?

Any help or advice would be very appreciated.

Firewater or Rumrunner are equally effective.
I liked Firewater as its very simple to use.

After supercid flash the TW (Taiwan) firmware not the WWE (World Wide Edition) so that you get faster updates as this is a Taiwanese company. WWE gets updates a lot later (2-4 months later) so think about that.

Yes, This means I have to change the CID to HTC__621? But would this affect my Carrier settings?

Firewater didn't work. Instead I used Rumrunner.

Hope things worked out, and also I hope you took my advice and switched to Taiwan RUU.
You don't have to change CID if you are supercid which is 11111 something like that, you can install any RUU.

Go to the unlock thread page 9, I posted a detailed S-Off procedure. Any further questions regarding TW firmware they can answer.

[Q]

I have HTC One X- AT&T(Evita) With S4 processor. In fastboot, First three Lines are:
Tempered
Locked
S off
I went through complete process, mentioned at HTC devs, but un-successful. the following error occured:
Error 160
MID not allowed
I have to change CID, but for doing this, i must have root access.
Please anybody guide me step by step procedure to root/bootloader unlock?

You don't need root access, because you have s-off. You can simply use fastboot to change the CID to SuperCID.
Code:
fastboot oem writecid 11111111

The at&t CID is blocked at htcdev, so you need to get SuperCID in order to unlock your bootloader. Reading the stickied threads (specifically the Evita FAQ thread) in the section you've just posted in world have uncovered this information. You're gonna want to read all of the threads in my signature so you can familiarise yourself with this device, and so you don't ask a question that's already been asked and answered a million times before.
Please post your hboot version, you'll find that in your bootloader screen.

That doesn't really make sense. The recovery screen isn't white, are you talking about the bootloader? And can you please be more specific about what's happening? I can't help you if you're giving vague two sentence posts like that.

Why did you flash 2.7 if it didn't download completely? That's a surefire way to brick your phone. The md5 wouldn't have matched either. You'll find downloads here:

I actually meant do you want a Sense ROM or an aosp ROM? Asking which ROM is best/most stable/fastest/prettiest, or asking for a suggestion isn't allowed so I can't answer that, here's why. To say one ROM is better is to infer that the others are inferior in some way. This is disrespectful to the devs who spend their spare time bringing us these awesome ROMs free of charge. Each user has different tastes anyway, the best way to see which ROM suits you is to flash a few and find out for yourself.
Our dev sections are as follows:
One XL Android Development (mainly Sense ROMs)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1541
One XL Original Android Development (aosp ROMs)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1726
Have a look through the available ROMs and pick one you think will suit you.

Is that the exact command you're giving? It looks like you're missing the ".zip" on the end of the filename. For example, if the filename is "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0.zip" then the command should look like this:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0.zip
If you have filename extensions (.exe, .doc, .zip) turned off in Windows, this could be the reason why you're missing the extension from the command.

Recovery has nothing to do with getting s-off. You need to get your phone booting first to do the s-off process. Flash a Sense ROM, and make sure you turn on usb debugging in Settings/Developer Options.

Flash a Sense ROM? and I can not activate debugging sd bootloop that I am I can only enter the recovery and fastboot

Once you flash a Sense ROM, you will be able to turn on usb debugging. Sense ROMs do not perform bootloader checks so you will not have any problems flashing one of those.

Once you flash a Sense ROM, you will be able to turn on usb debugging. Sense ROMs do not perform bootloader checks so you will not have any problems flashing one of those.

You can't run an RUU or you'll brick your phone, s-on + SuperCID + jb RUU = brick. What ROM did you flash?

I understand that .. you recommend I do to revive it if I'm not managing to do s-off

Why aren't you answering my questions? I need to know which ROM you flashed. I don't like having to repeat myself, it's a waste of time. Have you even flashed a Sense ROM yet?

Help - Nearly Bricked phone

My Old One S (Formerly running one of the ViperOneS Rom's until I buggered something up trying to do a factory reset/wipe) is in dire need of some serious upgrades and I could really use a little guidance on getting started. It's been a few phones and probably ~2 years or so since I've really done anything with this device so I'm pretty rusty as far as HTC processes, etc. go, so please bear with me. I want to make sure that I do this right and save myself from tearing my hair out
Some pertinent info:
I use a linux (Ubuntu 14.04) system with my primary box and prefer to do all work with it, though I do have an old laptop with XP on it if I absolutely HAVE to use Windows for something.
Carrier: T-mobile US
Phone info from Bootloader:
VLE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
hboot: 1.14.0004
Radio: 1.08ts.50.02.16
Fastboot devices: HT2xxx407xxx
Right now I can access the bootloader, fastboot, and recovery (TWRP v2.3.3.0).
Please help me with:
I want to upgrade this to a 4.4.4 ROM such as the CM11s port from the OnePlus One or possibly the latest Venom ROM for the OneS (4.3.1) since I had a great experience with the last version I used I know to do this I'll need to RUU to 2.15 or 2.16, but from what I've been reading/researching here on the forums I'm starting to feel a little overwhelmed and want to make sure that I execute the proper sequence of steps to do this correctly.
Where do I start? Should I work to get S-off first, then try to RUU to the latest hboot? Knowing which ROM I would want to use, which RUU should I download? What do I need to do about the radio? At what point should I try to flash a new recovery?
Much thanks, I really appreciate it!

Try that tool

I appreciate the recommended tool Bad.Fish, but that's for the M7 (not the OneS) so I'm not sure that'll work, especially since it says I need to be S-Off and I'm pretty sure I'm still locked so...
Also, a development...
I just tried pushing the previous Viper rom I was running (2.1 I think) over adb to the sdcard and when I try to flash it I get a bunch of errors that it's unable to mount /cache or /sdcard. What could possibly cause this? After rebooting the recovery, the .zip file I pushed using adb doesn't even appear as available anymore...

So, I have the dreaded "can't mound sdcard" issue that requires installing a stock recovery before re-installing a custom recovery. Knowing my CID is T-MOB010 I see 3 different recovery options from THIS THREAD being 4.19.531.10, 3.24.531.3, and 1.27.531.11. How can I tell which of these I should use?

shoot, I'm just really frickin lost at this point guys, I don't know what to do anymore

I would guess the 3.24 (just based on age) but it probably doesn't matter, as I doubt the recoveries are different.
Also, in reply to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55885509&postcount=523....
You can not 'upgrade' from 2.15 to 2.16 by just flashing a hboot. You have to update all firmware. If I remember correctly, there is a RUU-mode zip for that somewhere. (I no longer use this device, and I never went past 2.15.)
-Jobo

Any help/advice you can give me on how to fix this/get back to a working device would be SO appreciated! Right now, about the only thing that I can get it to do is boot to recovery or into the bootloader, so I know that there's hope! I tried running an RUU yesterday but that failed partway through (I'm not sure why, maybe cause I didn't have the right recovery image?). I know I might need a little bit of hand holding, but I will be so grateful to whomever helps me figure this out.

Ok, I might have FINALLY gotten something going here... running an RUU right now that appears to be working, so with any luck, I'll finally have a working device again
This is really good news because now I won't have to spend upwards of $250 on a new phone! lol

Great success! Phone just booted up and we're back on stock! Woohoo!!!!! Now to start the rooting/rom'ing process
