i find it hard to restore my one s because there is no official RUU for my one s c2,i failed to s-off aswel to use older RUU that i have so i found out that you can still restore your rom to stock after using custom roms..this method is tested and working (but me reminded to always have nandroid back up and use it at your own risk)
1st step: download a OTA update,in my case i download ASIA WWE 3.17.707.102 (it is in a zip form): you can find yours here http://splanet.info
or you can obtain it form any other source
2nd step: once you have the zip file open it and extract the firmware.zip (put it beside the fastboot.exe or inside the folder where adb and fastboot is)
now before proceeding to next step you need to verify first your CID
To Get the CID of your phone: reboot the phone in bootloader/fastboot mode (adb reboot bootloader), and use fastboot getvar cid. Match this in the android-info.txt file found inside the firmware.zip file. If it doesn’t match, don’t go any further.
**************If you’re still here, I guess your CID matched.*******************
now we will need tools like notepadc++ and 7zip
3rd step: Now, in the OTA zip file, find the file updater-script in the directory META-INF/com/google/android. In this we’ll need to remove some code that doesn’t work with recoveries other than the default HTC ones. (extract the updater-script)
then Open the file with any decent text editor that preserves newlines (for windows, Notepad++ springs to mind, on Linux/Mac just use vi), and look for a textblock like this:
ifelse( is_ship_bootloader(getprop("ro.bootloader")) == "t" ,
assert(check_cid(getprop("ro.cid"), "00000000" , "11111111" ,
"22222222" , "33333333" , "44444444" , "55555555" , "66666666" ,
"77777777" , "88888888" , "99999999" , "HTC__044") == "t");
);
delete that line.. then save it. after that delete the update-script inside the OTA (located in META-INF/com/google/android.) after deleting copy the new updater-script that we have just edited to the same directory where you delete the old updater-script..
4th step: Next, reboot your phone into Clockworkdmod Recovery (or whatever recovery you have installed), make a nandroid backup of your phone, and copy the OTA zip file on the phone. As a safety measure, it’s recommended to make a backup of everything on the SD storage to your computer.
5th step: When the backups are completed, reboot your phone into bootloader/fastboot mode. It’s time to lock the bootloader again, so we can flash the firmware update. This can be done using the command fastboot oem lock. Your phone will reboot.
6th step: Reboot it once again, this time to OEM update mode: adb reboot oem-78
7th step: Flash the firmware update: fastboot flash zip firmware.zip. If this complains without getting you a green progressbar on the screen, try it again – the second time it usually sticks.(even if it fails the the 4th time around just try and try it)
Once this process completes, reboot the phone again in the new bootloader: fastboot reboot-bootloader.
Now you can unlock your bootloader again, using the Unlock_Code.bin file you got from htcdev.com: fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_Code.bin.
At this point, you’d sure as hell wish you’d made a backup, if you didn’t. Because now your phone is wiped, reset to factory default. Don’t say I didn’t warn you upfront.
8th step: After the reboot finishes, you can once again boot in booloader/fastboot mode, and flash your recovery anew. For Clockworkdmod Recovery, the command is fastboot flash recovery <filename.img> Now you can boot the phone in the recovery (select the option from the bootloader menu).
9th step: Once in the recovery, it’s time to restore your nandroid backup. You did make one, did you?
If you finished restoring the backup, or you can now flash the OTA zip on the phone, updating the ROM to the new version or stock version.
After this, you just need to reboot one more time, this time to the ROM itself. Let it finish upgrading all applications, and tadaa, your freshly upgraded phone.
This worked for me, might not work for you. No promises.
this tut i found is for the one x but i made a one s version (villec2) which works.. so have fun and restore your device to stock....
Hope This Helps...
if you like this feel free to like and thanks me

Would it work as an update for phone which doesn't "see" the OTA update and cheating recovery by placing the OTA as update.zip on phone's memory doesn't work either?

hello mate,
ive tried before but it didnt work,you really have to do the stuff,but incase your one s is in different status it will be different..for mine im still s-on
and the ota rom will only work for the firmware .zip that is inside the ota which you will have to manually flash..
Hi xander1993,
I am sorry to bother you but your answer is not clear to me
You say you tried it but didn't work and just after that you write I have to do the stuff
So let's clarify my situation and then I will wait for your answer:
I am currently using TD6 because I could not update to JB using OTA. My HBOOT now is 2.11.
I did go back to stock 4.0.4 (by RUU, my CID is HTC__032) several times, tried OTA, but no result.
Then I tried (also several times) to download the OTA zip file from splanet, place it on phone and reboot to stock recovery - every time it was showing me first a pgone with green arrows shaping to a circle and one arrow inside the circle and after several seconds it was a phone with red triangle with an exclamation mark - at this stage I had to wait few minutes for reboot every time. No effect.
So my question is:
Will your guide help me to get just update from 4.0.4 to JB?

okay now i got your question my guide is about s-on devices restoring to jelly bean stockbecause s3 version havent got any RUU,all the RUU i found is ICS so i made this to restore back to stock,so in your situation you are still in ics? are you s-off? or s-on? and do you have the bootloader unlocked?
i can help you to update to jb with the OTA just find your OTA that matches your phones CID and MID,
after that you will need to have custom recovery like twrprecovery
then just follow my post above start 2nd step... i will wait for your reply...
As I mentioned above I am on TD6 now (TrickDroid 6), HOS S3, ICS base, S-ON (there is no S-OFF for S3 ), bootloader unlocked.
Hmm, what is MID? I haven't heard of it before..
I will follow your guide once I get an answer for this simple question

I read the guide and I barely understood how it works, but my question would be this:
Im on CID BSTAR301 (yeah, Latinamerican fked up CID stuck on 4.0.3) and if I change some of the code of a RUU.zip file (with other updated CID), would it work on my device? Is there any way to cheat the RUU to make it work on others CID? I think this could be possible, it's just some editable files, I hope this could work because I don't wanna be stuck on 4.0.3 while others Villec2 are with official JB

no you cant cheat the RUU but can cheat the OTA update,even if you dont have the the correct OTA it will install but first you need to be unlock via HTCDEV and you got to have twrp custom recovery

HTC One S Arabic JB update
Hi,
I bought an HTC One S from Dubai(Arabic Region) and I am using it in India right now. I have not yet received the JB update for the phone.
I was able to find the OTA files for the JB Update to the One S for the Arabic Region here -
splanet.info/
My CID is HTC_J15 as given by the CID Getter app.
I booted into the bootloader and got the following information -
***Locked***
VilleC2 PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.09.0001
RADIO-16.05.20.24_M
OpenDSP-v05.6.0.2226.00.0418
eMMC-boot
May 10 2012, 17:19:49
This was followed by the HBoot, FastBoot, Recovery. Factory Rset, SIMLock, Image CRC and Show BarCode options.
Can you guide me as to how I can install the JB update?
Please bear with me as I am a noob.
Thanks.

Hey guys, before I say something. I have really searched for help on the forum, although I clearly need help.
So I was trying to ROM the new Revelation rom and ended up in a bootloop where phone is restarting at HTC screen. I've flashed ROMs a several times with no problem whatsoever, until now.
I have 4Ext recovery and can access it without problems. Tried installing other ROMs as Cm10 with no luck.
At the time is says in bootloader.

Folks, the surgery went well! I fixed it.
Was looking for every possible solution and found a guide! Finally got my lovely sensation back.
1. Put the firmware PG58IMG file in root (3.33.4 - since my fastboot told me so). Let it "flash".
2. Went inside 4Ext and removed the PG58IMG file.
2. Formated and wiped dalvik and cache.
3. With 4Ext smartflash turned on I flashed CM10.1 ROM.
4. Bootet back to bootloader in 4Ext, connected my device to adb and fastboot.
5. Copied the boot.img from the CM10.1 Rom-file and put it in the same folder as adb and fastboot.
6. Typed "fastboot flash boot boot.img", let it flash.
7. Reboot, phone back and feeling good!
Hope this helps for anyone who's stuck at HTC logo screen and has S-ON. Since the S-ON kind of prevented me from changing CID etc. I tried this, which worked successfully!

Even I had the same problem today.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2349395
In short..the culprit was the boot.img.
It was not being flashed even after enabling smartflash in 4ext recovery.
So basically what I did was exract boot.img from the AndroidRevolution rom and flashed it via fastboot(fastboot flash boot boot.img).
And it worked!!
Try this and report.
@NickenA
You should probably remove your imei and serial number from OP.
Sent from my Ouya
You can still flash Revelation but since you are S-ON you may need to flash the boot.img separately like you posted in your solution. So, extract the boot.img from the ROM, flash the ROM then push boot.img to your phone afterwards, and before you know it you will be enjoying the smoothest Sensation possible!
I've been having the same problem, once again, after trying to flash Revelation (and yeah, I'm also 1.27 with S-ON) so this looks like it's definitely the common denominator. Even with SmartFlash in 4EXT, the boot.img doesn't seem to flash for any ROM after attempting to flash revelation - I even tried 3 others that I know used to work just fine. I was starting to get afraid that I may have softbricked my phone, but I'll go ahead and try flashing boot.img manually. Thanks
EDIT: Worked like a charm - only needed to do fastboot flash boot boot.img
The other method with the PG58IMG is going a little overboard, IMO
Jus flash the proper boot.img

No need to wipe/flash anything.. Most boot-loops with S-ON occur with wrong boot.img. Just use fastboot flash boot boot.img and you should be good to go.
I have the same problem... :/ (Not sure if I have to start a new thread)
I have flashed the Revelation ROM and after rebooting I'm stuck at HTC splash screen. Now after restoring my backup of my previously used CM10.1 ROM I'm stuck on splash screen too. I even tried to flash a clean CM10.1 ROM, but same problem
I'm S-OFF using hboot 1.29 and latest firmware.

with locked bootloader you are restricted to fastboot commands
what to do is flash 3.33 universal from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
it will give you also a patched hboot which is unlocked
follow the instructions carefully
and before flashing check md5 sums(important)
after that try with the command again

I think it could be solved without RUU.
It seems (because of your hboot), you had already the update to Android 4.2.2? Can you tell us which software you were running? Or if you are using an european k2ul? Or any other information could be important.
Please try to use/flash this recovery for flashing a rom:

You have to flash with fastboot. It is made to work also on your hboot.

After i flash this recovery image? what do i do next? i mean i want to revert the phone to stock but like i said the Recovery menu dosn't load is there any way to flash the recovery image and then install a stock rom through flasboot commands? i have found this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277112 and it sais that it's possible but i didn't have the recovery image, now i do but i'm still missing a stock rom that would work with my device.
You had an older recovery, which don't work with your hboot.
Flash the recovery i have linked for you with fastboot, then you should be able to enter recovery.
From recovery you can flash the k2ul_4.2.2_3.11.401.1_stock_odexed_v3.zip from here. It's a stock rom, with the same software number as you have had.

From recovery you can flash the k2ul_4.2.2_3.11.401.1_stock_odexed_v3.zip from here. It's a stock rom, with the same software number as you have had.

Hi,
The phone now boots into recovery so i'm on the right track thanks to you, but i don't know how to flash the stock rom? what do i need to do? i put the stock on a sd card and plug it in through an external cable and a card reader but i don't seem to find where is the file? Do i need to flash the boot.img from the zip file too? or rename the zip file somehow in the sd card?
You have to flash it from recovery.
First go (in recovery) to "Wipe"-> "Advanced Wipe" and wipe everything but sd card and internal sd card.
Put the rom on your sd card, choose "Install" and navigate to the k2ul_4.2.2_3.11.401.1_stock_odexed_v3.zip.
Choose it and confirm with"Swipe to flash".
As you are S-off, you usually don't need to flash boot.img afterwards.
When flashing is done, Reboot.
Wait some minutes, first boot takes some time.

It fails to wipe with this error: E:Unable to mount internal storage. do i need to place the sd card inside the phone?
Hmmm, strange. Yes, put your sd card into your phone. If the rom is there, you can't find it, if its not in the phone.
Go on and try to flash.

I found my rom on the sd card but after a few seconds the installing fails because of the same error "unable to mount internal storage" is there a way to flash this rom through fastboot?
No.
Seems, something got corrupted on your device.
Connect your phone with fastboot and type into the cmd:
Code:
fastboot getvar all
Put the output here (except your IMEI & Serial number)

Ok, i see what i wanted to see.
Because the rom will not flash, you should really try to flash the RUU.
To do that, you need to downgrade your hboot.
Please read and follow this guide, to downgrade hboot and flash the RUU afterwards.

So I recently purchased the T-Mobile version of the HTC-Sensation... since then I've been trying to flash a custom JellyBean ROM onto my device. I've rooted and flashed custom roms on previous phones but the process for this one has been extremely confusing. I've been mainly following this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1864053 I have the bootloader unlocked and I think I have S-Off, now I'm trying to flash a recovery image with the KSG utility but gives me a bunch of error messages that say FILE NOT FOUND - FASTBOOT.LOG and ACCESS DENIED and FILE NOT FOUND - ABD.LOG. I'm sorry if this is in the forum somewhere, but I've been working on this for hours and I can't figure this out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Additional Details: I'm running Android 2.3.4
When I boot into the bootloader it says

I unlocked the bootloader but got stuck trying to S-off. Everything was going fine until the part where I run the temp_root.bat because I cannot get HTC sync to recognize my phone no matter what I try. I was wondering if anyone had the original version that came on the SD card or if there is a way to gain S-off without using HTC sync? Or can I get Jellybean without gaining S-off? Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm pretty new this and feeling way in over my head here.

You are already s-off ,if you want to flash custom Rom flash 3.33 universal firmware (be careful when flashing check the md5 sum) after that flash 4ext recovery and flash new rom
Edit here is link for 3.33 firmware. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767.
sent from HTC Sensation 4G
@EmporerD
first you don't need a htc sync..
second your phone is already success s-off..you can see that in your bootloader state..
now i think maybe you already forgot the step to remove temp root from your phone after success s-off process..you can do that by running temp_root_remove.bat from the guide that you follow above..
after you had remove temp root from your phone..then you can continued to flashing a 3.33 firmware.. to do that..
just download firmware file from here....then copied that PG58IMG.zip file to the root directory of your sd card (the root directory mean is don't place it that file in any folder..just place it in your sdcard) you can copied that file with card reader..after that just put in back your sd card to the phone...then boot into bootoader..and wait until bootloader check it that file then ask you to updating it...just confirm it yes with vol up button..then wait until finish and ask you to confirm reboot with press power button..
after that you can continued installing custom recovery..
just download custom recovery.img file from here and extracted that zip file then copied that recovery.img file to your adb/sdk folder (the same place as your adb.exe and fastboot.exe folder)..then you flashing it through FASTBOOT with fastboot command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"..done..now your phone already had a custom recovery..that are can installing any custom rom...
hope this help..
THANKYOU guys. This helps a lot. I'm going to call it a night for a now, but I will try your advice tomorrow and post updates.
@JJeamy
So I tried to remove the temproot by running the temproot-remove batch file, it didn't do anything so I downloaded the PG58IMG.zip and updated it in the bootoader, now phone is stuck in a bootloop...?
Update: I tried to continue with flashing the custom recovery, but the dialog just gets stuck on "waiting for device" ...
Update 2: Installing the older drivers for fixed the problem of flashing the recovery so my recovery works but it's still stuck in bootloop. Unfortunately I will probablyrun out of time before I can get a custom ROM flashed, but thanks everyone for your help I will update my progress later.

You are on the right path my friend you flashed 3.33 firmware so you hboot version is 1.27 that's way you experiance bootloop , because you have gb rom with ics hboot, so next step is to flash custom recovery!
To do that you need to have SDK files downloaded (Fastboot , adb files) and when you have that in the folder you got the files you copy your recovery img and that you open command window from there and you get your phone to fastboot (bootloader that fasboot) , that you write the command in the command window fasboot flash recovery recovery.img and you are done!
EDIT: here is guide how to find fastboot and Adb files you need http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1152148
and for flasing custom recovery follow this guide step 2 flashing recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
after that flash rom
and when you flash your first rom do format everything except sd card before flashing, (and make sure the first rom you flash is not kitkat because you may experiance difficulties when flashing)
So I managed to get recovery going, and I flashed CM 11 with 4.4 with no issue. : D

THANKYOU so much. You guys are awesome/
Hello Everyone, pretty new to this community.
I have been fixing and flashing stuffs for pretty long time and found XDA brings out alot of help for me reading comments and guides.
I'm having problems with mounting the SD-Card, i remember i had in the past CWM recovery that i could actually mount successfully without having any drivers issues (Windows 7 Home Premium) when trying to Mount the SD-Card.
Now even the latest CWM or TWRP recoveries, i can't mount the SD-Card.
Why i want Mount it via Recovery?
Because i deleted the OS and i'm trying to put on my SD-Card a Stock Nanroid Backup for it since there is no RUU.exe out there for the HTC One X International with CID : T-MOB101 that i can flash via fastboot.
What i tried to do is, from fastboot flashing a random ROM that hopefully i will be able to mount SD-Card on that ROM.
I tried this :
fastboot flash boot boot.img (that i took out from that ROM.zip)
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip ROM.zip
Don't really know if its possible doing it that way, but i gave it a try that i head in my head.
I know i'm supposed to do it via Recovery Mode, but i can't even insert files there since the HTC One X has a build memory which makes lifes harder.
That's my phone details :
Code:
ENDEAVORU PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.72.0000
CPLD-None
MICROP-None
RADIO-5.1204.163U2.31
eMMC-bootmode: disabled
CPU-bootmode : disabled
HW Secure boot : enabled
MODEM PATCH : OFF
Jun 21 2014,18:24:41
CID : T-MOB101
Its a Germany Phone version if you wondering.
So i'm wondering if there is a way that i could push the files of the Nanroid backup to my phone?(Reminding again, i have no Software running. can't mount SD-Card via Recovery Mode, and SD-Card is clean.)
Or if anyone here somehow have a good old recovery CWM version that can mount the SD-Card that i could give it a shot.
I can replace the USB port though, but it won't help.
Thanks in advance.
