[Q] XE bootloop after installing RUU, cannot downgrade or unlock bootloader or S-OFF

Hello!
This is a little complicated. I have an XE and I wanted to upgrade from 2.3 (HBOOT 1.18). I tried to S-OFF first with revolutionary, but it didn't work (not even with tacoroot). Then I wanted to unlock the bootloader with the HTCDev method, I have the Unlock_code, uploaded it with fastboot and then selected yes. The phone reboots but it's still LOCKED. I repeated a few times, but no success.
I thought, OK the stock ROM by HTC is enough. I installed 4.0 with the newest RUU (HBOOT 1.29). This is where the bad things started. The installer worked well, but I couldn't start my phone anymore. It is stucked in bootloop. I tried to downgrade (with RUU and flashing zip with fastboot), no success.
So: S-ON, locked bootloader, bootloop... what could I do? Oh and when I plug in the USB cable, the phone turns on by itself.
Please help! Thank you!

I tried this many times with multiple versions. I can't downgrade and with v3.33 I have the described problem

[Q] What is wrong with the main version?

Hy guys. It's my first post so I would like to say Hello to the community!
Anyway. I have a question about my One S main version.
When I hit the getvar all command here's what I get:

As you see, the "(bootloader) version-main:" is empty!!! This is a problem cause I can't even flash the official TIM RUU because it gives me error 155 (after locking the bootloader of course). Besides, when I start the installation it won't recognize the main version.
Somy question is. What do I have to do to get the main version up in there? Got to flash a new firmware or what? Help me out. Thanks a lot!!

Nobody has an idea?!?

I don't think it matters, look at mine, same thing. I have run RUU.exe a bunch of times.
The difference is I have run the correct RUU for my CID #. Maybe the official TIM Cid you mentioned is for the older Hboot. You have the newer 2.15 Hboot and you cannot go backwards unless you S-off your device.

Thanks a lot! Now I know how to proceed!

[Q] Trouble flashing any CM Roms

Hello Ladies & Gents,
I've had the MaximusHD ROM for a while but am wanting to try CM to run lean & mean like I like it. The problem is I keep getting an error on "updating partition details..." when trying to install from TWRP.
I've tried a couple different ROM zips.
I've tried with HBOOT 2.15 and 2.16
I've tried TWRP 2.7.1.0 and also an earlier version (I don't recall)
...and every time I get "FAILED" !
ALSO, maybe this is related, but I can't get ADB to work, only fastboot. Any idea what I'm doing wrong????

After playing around with roms a while back i cannot get the phone back to stock.

Still can't find stock rom
I also cannot get the phone into S-off to flash any RUU because when i try to SuperCID, it says "/sbin/sh su not found"
When trying to flash roms:
Warning: No file_contexts
could not detect filesystem
FIXED:
Flashed stock recovery
Factory reset
Installed TWRP
Install viper
Wiped cache
