I can provide any information you need as long as it doesn't require me to actually boot up the android interface (I can only use fastboot and that's it) but I'll list my issue so far.
So I rooted my phone a good while back using The Ultimate Guide: S-Off, Recovery, Root, & Jelly Bean on Android Forums dot com I have the boost mobile american variant of the phone, not the k2_ul it's the k2_cl I do believe.
I recently tried to revert it back to stock since I don't really need it rooted anymore.
It ultimately resulted in me just contacting HTC directly because I couldn't find an actual stock rom to flash onto my phone anywhere.
(maybe I just wasn't looking in the right places, but I looked very thoroughly)
After a few messages back and forth with their technical group I ended up flashing an updated hboot they gave me for it, and then the stock rom they gave me always resulted in "INFOshift signature_size for header checking... FAILED (remote: 32 header error) finished. total time: 50.946s"
So at this point the phone was still booting up like normal, but I figured maybe I should just try to update it with the software update.
First update applied, phone still worked, another update prompt.
Second update applied, phone is bricked, and now I think since I flashed that hboot file it's removed cwmrecovery from my phone and I feel like I've played god with my poor phone.
I'm really sorry if this seems really vague, and I'm really sorry if this is the wrong place to put this.
And I'm sorry for not posting links and images but I can't since I'm new apparently.
I just really want to get this fixed, and if possible go back to a stock phone.
I used this to get me back to stock JB 4.1.2 on Boostmobile, I was on JB 4.2.2 the latest update , go to One SV General and look for this post by a guy named Russell it's called [almostRUU][K2_CL]&[How To Update After Moonshine S-Off] , I was unlocked and S-OFF to get it to work, sorry on link for you, read it carefully and download the files and put on PC, and if it don't help then try messaging him.

I'll check it out, appreciate the info.
Okay so I originally had a legit rom from htc themselves, but flashboot kept giving me the error I posted in my original post, after following that guide recommended, I couldn't get twrp to flash over, but I did read ahead and just put the rom the htc people gave me on my sd card, then I boot into bootloader and viola, it updated itself to the latest version, it's now stock as far as I know.
I know it isn't rooted, I relocked bootloader before even updating it, so I'm thinking my problems are over.
Even if it isn't at least the phone is usable again.
Glad your problem is solved....

Hello, first I would like to apologize as I am clearly a noob and have very little idea of what I am talking about.
I'm sure my problem has been asked before and that if I had any idea what the problem was, I could find the exact solution I need here on the forums. Unfortunately I don't even know what to search for. If any one would like to complain go ahead but please..just help me.
So I decided to root my HTC Sensation, which I believe I did without any problem, I followed the guide on this site. Nothing went wrong and as far as I was aware everything was working fine.
I then decided to flash a new ROM onto the phone. I chose the Android Revolution HD as this looked to be the popular choice. I got it from here and I believed I had followed the instructions on how to install it properly.
However, after installing the ROM I came upon a problem, the phone would not start, it would just go to the HTC boot screen and stay there forever. At first I couldn't even get back to the hboot screen, but after inserting a new and better charged battery I was able to get there, but every time I do it attempts to update and says " CID incorrect! Update Fail! Press <POWER> to reboot." and I cant do anything but get stuck in this continuous loop.
If I take the SD card out I can access the HBOOT properly, however trying to do a recovery at this point doesn't seem to work.
I have no idea what to do and would appreciate any help anyone can give me. I would be happy to just have my phone back to the way it was originally.
Thanks
Might wanna try a RUU? not sure but hopefully it should do..

First off your MAJOR issue is that you flashed a rom for the Desire HD section(As soon as I clicked on your link, it said Android Revolution 7.0.2... I was like wtf? There is no 7.0.2 on the sensation forum) ... I think that's the prob... for now! Flash the correct rom and stay in the right section!
Second, I don't see why you can't get into recovery. Remove your sd card, power on the phone by holding vol-down +power to get to bootloader, select recovery and flash the right rom. I would also recommend that you delete the P58IMG.zip off your sd card as well. I'm assuming you have it on there for the ICS firmware but flashed the incorrect rom. You are far from bricking it, but keep this up and it might turn into one!
Thanks, your post is certainly reasuring though I am still not sure how to continue. Also it is possible I gave the wrong link to the rom I used, though it definitely was the same name.
Anyway what Im thinking I have to do now is 1st delete p58img.zip file from my SDcard and put the right rom on there, could you link to one?
So by removing that file I should be able to access the SDcard again and flash the new rom?

Here's the right link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849
This is an ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich) Rom
So you need:
1) SuperCID (so that you can flash any firmware)
Instructions
2) Flash the ICS firmware (otherwise you can't use the ICS roms)
http://goo.gl/RcbMy (and make SURE that there aren't any errors - errors such as not doing the SuperCID process correctly, therefore it can't flash - I say this because it seems like many users think the firmware is flashed and then find out their rom won't start, so don't be stupid and check whether or not an error has occurred just incase!)
3) Pick a rom
Revolution
Elegancia
Insert Coin
4) Flash the 4EXT recovery, I'm sure you already have clockwork mod on there but I think that's a bit buggier... so if I were you, I'd go for the 4EXT touch recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377759
5) If you wish, you can also flash for example: tweaks and addons by awsm devs which make our phone much better if you wish!
6) you're good to go! It's that easy.
Yeah, all you have to do is remove that P58IMG.zip from your sd card and your bootloader won't force you to update or w/e. You'll be fine.
And don't forget to md5 check for roms you download !

Thank you very much. It seems I hadn't performed the SuperCID part. Once I had done that I installed Elegancia and it is working perfectly.
Thanks again for your help, I really appreciate you taking the time to explain that to me.
Hi,
i recently got an HTC One S phone (used, no warranty). The phone seems to have been "played with" as it had Super User installed. However it was acting wierd so i did a factory recovery using the boot menu. This meant Super User was gone.
I am totally new to the updating an HTC phone, i found doing firmware changes to Sony and Samsung phones to be pretty much more easier!
My needs are pretty basic ! which is i want to achieve the following
I want to change my phone to have a normal CID without depending on carrier delays for updates (my CID is ORANG1)
I do not want to install a custom ROM, i want OTA updates to happen
I want to have my phone get the OTA update for Jelly Bean
When i boot into the phone (volume - + restart), i see the following,
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
VLE PVT SHP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.06.0000
RADIO-0.15.3150S.19_2
OpenDSP-v21.1.0.32.0314
eMMC-boot
Mar 15 2012, 23:37:23
Other facts
My CID - ORANG1 (using CID getter app)
Phone model - S4 Z520e
I hear the Jelly Bean update sorts the helicopter issue with the HOME button, though i am not sure if the restart issue when browsing with the stock browser has been resolved. The helicopter HOME issue is driving me nuts.
Appreciate if someone can provide me the steps about how i can go about getting my phone CID changed and the OTA udpates working for the new CID, as searching the forums have not really helped me nail the way i can go about doing this.
Before we get started I'd like to know your home country (sorry I don't know your flag) and whether you're on stock or custom recovery.
As I'm on this device from the very beginning and know almost any corner in this forum I'll point you out where to find the things and information you'll need and some advantages as well as some disadvantages of what you want. Also I'll point out an alternative.

Wonderful to hear a quick response.
I live in Sri Lanka (small Island nation located at the bottom part of India, last colonized by the British!). The situation is that i think i am in stock, as i got this phone used and though everything is functional the helicopter home button issue, phone freezing when i use the stock browser for over a few minutes, connection looses (all reported errors with 4.0.3 and even 0.4) means i need to get this to Jelly Bean to make the phone more usable as i love the size and speed of the phone.
To start of is there any way i can see if my phone is in stock or custom recovery? I just searched and found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2124349, does the instructions "Fastboot getvar version-main" work?
Another twist is that i have the much loved Windows 8 running on my PC, i am not sure if that will have any effect on any command executions.
Wait you got 1.06 Hboot I would not flash RUU or OTA if you got that because you can update what is needed or if needed for roms plus you don't have to piss about when flashing roms so if I was you don't do it.
Thank you and welcome to this forum!
Your bootloader is still at version 1.06. Which is very good, as yours and version 1.09 allow you to flash nearly everything (kernels, radios, etc.) from within your device. Bootloader versions higher than 1.09 don't allow this anymore. For flashing kernels and radios you then will need to get into the phones fastboot mode and use the Android SDK on your pc, typing things like 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'.
Let's get started with recovery. To root your phone you usually need to flash a custom recovery. TWRP is the only one working bugfree atm. You can download it here.
To flash it and doing other usefull things try to get comfortable with the HTC One S All-in-one-toolkit.
So why do I mention this, also you wrote that the only thing you want to do is udating straightly to JB?
After the OTA update you'll be on bootloader version 2.15. It's just one more thing from htc to lock their devices even more, as at this time they don't behave very friendly to the dev community. Downgrading the bootloader is kind of pain and not easy so, unless you're familiar with linux (I did it succesfully several times).
Also stock JB from htc has one more surprise: Your system folder will be kind of write protected, which means, also you seem to have full root, after a reboot your formerly deleted (you thought so) files wil be back. Also added files in that folder won't be present any more. That crap is hardcoded into htc's JB kernel and sources are not available atm. But this problem was solved by flar2, who wrote a kernel module to bypass this.
So your hardware issues are left. As I'm not concerned by this I can only summarize what I read about these in the forum. They are obviously hardware related and therefore independant from software. Somebody wrote, a new radio had helped, others write different. In summary you'll have to check this out for your device.
Let's resume at this point:
Your device is unlocked and at 1.06. It needs to be relocked for the JB update and it will have a less comfortable bootloader version afterwards and it will be hard to get rid of the crapware in your system folder, as you'll have to unlock and root again for doing so. And it's questionable the JB OTA update will fix your hardware issues.
So I'd recommend the following procedure (you could still do the OTA update at any time, I'll help you then):
- use the all-in-one-toolkit, flash latest TWRP
- Flash latest EU radio 1.11 from here with twrp
- restore JB from my nandroid backup (download 3.16)
- if you experience troubles with your wifi connection, flash these wifi partitions
- check if your hardware troubles have been resolved
- to get root use all-in-one-toolkit again and flash elemental kernel (by flar2)
It seems a lot of work, but it's worth it. PM me, if you need additional help or decide to do the OTA update.
wow, thanks so much for all the info. I will give this a try tonight as i have the phone @ home, using my One X as the regular phone until i get the One S sorted. Then i will hope push out the One X and keep the One S as my regular phone. I prefer the One S size which is more ideal for one handed operation, shame that HTC opted for a pentile display that took out the sharpness.
Also based on your suggestions would it be better for me to opt for a custom ROM than HTC standard to resolve my issues?
I received a new replacement 1S a week ago. Three days ago—after I rooted it (though no SuperCID or S=off yet)—I got the notification for the 2.35 update. I searched here about this update and it seems overall that it it helpful. However, some people were concerned about an upgrade to hboot.
Since it seems that we have the ability to get s=off, a worry over an upgraded hboot would now be irrelevant, correct? I would rather not go through the whole process of unrooting, flashing stock recovery, etc. then dissembling the update, changing updating script, signing & rezipping, etc., etc. and instead just install the update and if it unroots, just re-flash TWRP and flash SuperSU.
Is it OK just to install the update and re-root?
Thank you...

If you're talking about the One S, you're in the wrong forum.
My apologies... Where did that get posted originally...? Oh well.
Edit: Apparently I was looking at the HTC One forum and forgot I was still there when I posted the above question.
But if anyone thinks I should have no problem flashing that update and re-rooting, let me know. It appears some improvements to WiFi were made, and I would like to install it without stressing about it.
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda premium
OK... well I figured out that I cannot install the update with TWRP as my current recovery. I didn't know that. I figured the update would just install its own recovery.
So.... I am reflashing stock recovery. I have it on my SD card... I did adb fasboot. The phone is in fastboot mode and fastboot devices shows my device.
So...(and this is driving me nuts), what is the path to the sdcard??? It always was /sdcard/. When did this change?????
In a fit of research I again tried other paths found around the web: /mnt/sdcard, /storage/sdcard/, /mnt/sdcard0/, /storage/sdcard0/ and just /sdcard0/, but adb tells me it cannot find my recovery .img.
I know that the name of the file is correct.... Can someone please tell me how I can do a listing of the filesystem through adb???
Thank you,
irritated but grateful for any help
Here are some commands in fastboot just to assure myself that everything is correct...
C:\HTCOne>fastboot devices
FA2CKW400117 fastboot
C:\HTCOne>fastboot getvar version-main
version-main: <-------------------- I don't know why I didn't get a version here...But I am guessing it is because I have TWRP as recovery.
finished. total time: 0.003s
C:\HTCOne>fastboot oem readcid
...
(bootloader) cid: T-MOB010
OKAY [ 0.010s]
finished. total time: 0.011s
C:\HTCOne>
[EDIT]I downloaded another copy and installed it from my laptop... I guess this has all been a waste since I was going to go to S=off next and I guess I didn't realize you could flash partitions independently (or that the update was in that format). But anyway... I still am wondering if there is a way to use ADB to list the partitions... so I can determine the path to my SDCard..
I am running stock...it is still rooted, but that shouldn't matter. I might have disabled some bloatware but I never got around to uninstalling it before I decided to back up and quickly install this update.
I will try to look for a stock recovery and download it to my PC...I know that is a solution, but I don't really like not being able to access my SDcard from ADB. This has never been a problem in the past. Also... I see people talking about needing a "jellybean recovery"... Is this true??? Has the recovery changed (I presume this is an international 1S upgrade since stock is still ICS in the US). But does it matter???
Did you ever get this working? I have an issue with 2.35 that is driving me nuts, and like you, people are reading my post but not replying for some reason. 2.35 makes fixing the App Associations idiocy much more difficult, if not impossible.
I had a ATT inspire 4G running on android 2.2
I rooted and installed CWS with easy ace root. worked perfectly
then following another guide I found, I tried to flash update-aospX-1.0.0-AR26-DesireHD-signed using recovery.
But my phone was stuck on the white HTC screen and didn't go anywhere. Trying to solve this issue I wiped everything with recovery and flashed this: GizRoot_v_2 (1) which I found on this forum as a rom made similar to the stock rom. this worked and now phone was good but the guide did say to change the radio.
I tried to update my radio via hboot with sd card, but it always got stuck on the installing part and never finished. After researching it the problem was that I am still S-ON and you cant change radios while S-on?
I have spent 4+ hours googling and researching I have about 12 tabs open with different guides. I am very frustrated at this point
I Have a inspire 4g phone that works but the radio doesn't work. 1st it would connect to the movil network of the carrier but the wifi did work. I changed the simcard to another provider and it did work calls were made and internet data worked. but now wifi doesn't work!
I would like to have the phone back to factory setting and stock att rom. how can I do this, I used a RUU exe, but it always said error connecting to the phone. the RUU is RUU_Ace_Cingular_US_1.80.502.3_Radio_12.39.60.19_26.06.04.06_M_release_166557_signed
or maybe I am doing it wrong?
help please
edit: I booted phone to fastrecovery usb and ran the RUU.exe again, this time it went all the way to wiping and sending then it said an unknown error occurred right after updating signature and sent me to error recovery step 0, followed prompts but nothing worked
Flash boot.img from fastboot. Read the Ace Think Tank in Desire HD General for details.
steps
Ok
So.
I booted into recovery, wiped data and factory reset, wiped cache partition, wiped dalvik cache
installed from sd card update-aospX-1.0.0-AR30-DesireHD-signed. rebooted device into fastboot, connected usb cable.
downloaded android-win-tools and extracted into one folder. I also extracted the boot.img from update-aospX-1.0.0-AR30-DesireHD-signed into the same folder.
I opened a cmd window, went to said directory. typed fastboot.exe then fastboot devices. my device is there, then I did fastboot flash boot boot.img sending boot, writing boot ok.. did fastboot reboot...
and HOLY **** IT WORKS...
I still have to test wifi gps calls etc
EDIT: WIFI WORKS, GPS WORKS BLUETOOTH TOOK A WHILE TO TURN ON BUT WORKS, and calls work! camera works yey!
MIUI on Inspire 4G
Hi,
I need something like that too.
I bought my phone from USA in 2011, Android 2,2, i think, and with MIUI on it, locked on AT&T and I use it in Europe.
I unlocked it here in Europe and everything was fine.
So, the phone started work slow and after 2 years of use it I didn't receive any system update. My husband bought one same model, no MIUI on it, but HTC Sense I think, AT&T locked, unlocked here, but he received the system update and worked fine.
Now, in my silly thinking, I started to look for update on Internet and I saw that the Android is already 4.2. and I have 2.2. And I said,man, that's why is not working so well.
So, I upgraded my phone to Android 4.2.2 JDQ39E - the most stupid thing I could do. Starting that day, my phone is freezing non-stop, it restarted itself while I am talking on the phone. The apps are not working well, are freezing often. I read on AT&T website that for my model, the last Android is not 4.2.2 at all, but it was too late.
I found out how to upgrade the MIUI and I did it. This is ok, but this MIUI it makes me cray. I don't like it at all.
I WANT TO GET RID OF MIUI AND PUT SOMETHING ELSE INSTEAD OF IT. And put the normal Android system that my phone support it well.
HOW I CAN DO THAT?
Please help me with some advices before I will creat a new model: HTC Inspire 4G smashed.
Thank you so much.

Uh mate, It's best to go back to Stock Roms for that. And Everytime you guys go upgrading and degrading Roms, It's best to make a backup image with Nandroid.
Easiest way to go back to stock is find the proper RUU's for your phone.

Pick one of these, Download the RUU, Plug in your phone and Let the App do it's magic.
And take note, It's going back to the STOCK.
After that, Use the AAHK tool or search around the forums to unlock and S-Off.

Just uninstall whichever root app is present on the ROM (Superuser or SuperSU), voila, you're 100% stock.

thankx
thanks for your help but I guess I won't be able to installed ota anymore? though I don't think there be any coming to the phone anymore
Why do you think that? If the phone has an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery (which you'd need to flash a nand) you shouldn't take an OTA anyway. If you want to go completely back to stock you need to get s-off so you can run the last Telstra RUU (1.89 I think), lock your bootloader, and take every OTA to get back up to date.

my mobile data wont work
Hi,
so after weeks and days of suffering and trying to install any rom on my HTC One XL only telestra works, even CM wont boot I get into boot looping...
So after I installed telestra my mobile data wont work, I tried on my own find out what is the problem, even I tried to downgrade my phone to froyo so I can install RUU and I couldn't downgrade because adb wont push file to my device one file go through and the other won't... It's says permission denied.
I am here asking for you help please I am so desperate, I am trying to do this all by own so I don't need to pay 20 euros to some services.

Hang on...
Firstly, you tried to downgrade the phone to Froyo? This device has never had Froyo on it, the earliest version of Android that it came with was Ice Cream Sandwich. So what on earth did you try to flash to your device??
Secondly, the other thread that you link to isn't for this phone, it's for the HTC Droid Incredible.
Mate, it seems as if you've been attempting to flash firmwares and exploits from other devices onto this phone, it's a wonder you haven't bricked the thing! ROMs, kernels, radios, firmwares, exploits, etc, are only compatible for the device that they were developed for, they're not interchangeable. This is our device section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-x-att
Do not, under any circumstances, wander outside of that section and its sub-forums for anything or it's only a matter of time before you have an expensive paperweight.
Now, what recovery do you have on the phone?
PS. You should edit that image asap, it shows your IMEI, that's something you should never post publicly.
Ty for help and your time first.
I edited photo in paint but you need to edit your post too because picture is still there.
My phone is HTC One XL, xda wont accept this when I enter my device.
Well it's a wonder I didn't throw my phone into the wall.
So everything was fine on this phone until battery started to dry out fast, it's started to lag and everything was slow, clean master, battery doctor didn't help, factory reset few times didn't help.
Then I tried to install CM with this instructions ( I can't link it but when you enter in Google how to install CM on HTC One XL it will pop out wiki ) but my phone wouldn't boot any CM for my phone known as "evita", it would stuck at boot looping.
I have access to recovery. bootloader, fastboot and everything so still it isn't a brick.
I have this recovery img TWRP 2.7.0.8. but if needed I can change it into ClockworkMod 6.0.4.8.
I don't have many experiences in rooting android but I learned some basic commands in cmd with fastboot and adb.

I've edited the image out of my post. Your phone probably boot looped after installing CM because you didn't flash the boot.img via fastboot afterwards, am I right? Because you're s-on and have firmware equal to or higher than 1.14 your phone can't flash the boot.img during a ROM flash in recovery, this means you need to do it manually with fastboot after flashing the ROM. I have detailed instructions in my guide thread (link in my signature).
You need to run an RUU which will take the device back to stock and hopefully clear up the issues you've been facing. In order to run an RUU you first need to get s-off (and SuperCID if you don't already have it). In order to get s-off you need to first flash the Kickdroid 5.0 ROM (Rumrunner s-off has the highest success rate on this ROM).
1. Flash Kickdroid (don't forget to flag the boot.img afterwards too).
2. Go to the Rumrunner site and get s-off.
3. Check your CID:
Code:
fastboot oem readcid
3b. If it's anything other than 11111111 you need to change it:
Code:
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
4. You can now run whatever Evita RUU you want, and leave the device stock for a couple of days to see if your problems persist. What variant is the phone? At&t? Rogers? Telstra? Hong Kong?

I did everything what it's says on rumrunner s-off page before I tried to install CM
well I would link to you what steps I was following but I am junior member so I can't, as I said write in google how to install cm on htc one xl and you will get wiki page and there will be steps which I followed.
How could I install then telestra if I didn't was s-off?
I am very tired now but I will answer to you some basic question you asked.
I am on vodafone variant or in my country (Croatia) it's vip, so when I get some sleep I need to install Kickdroid (well in the morning I guess I would figure out what flag the boot.img mean), and after Kickdroid I can install any RUU I want but need one for vodafone am I right? something like this? RUU_EVITA_UL_ICS_40_S_Vodafone_CH-DE_2.41.166.1_Radio_0.20os.32.09.10_2_10.113.32.28L_release_280222_signed
I found that on this page AndroidRUU, and when I bought my phone it was on German lang.
And if I manage to install Kickdroid and then RUU I will try to give a chance and see if it work normally but if not I can install again Kickdroid and have that rom? And I can install some kernel but for now I don't know what kernel is and I don't understand do I need to install kernel or not? Oh man ty for your time and explanation I need to take some time and to figure all of this and to install properly .
Forget about whatever you did or didn't do in the past, it didn't work and there's no point wondering why right now because I've laid out a plan for you to move forward. Install Kickdroid, get s-off with Rumrunner, and run an RUU. You don't necessarily have to run a Vodafone RUU, you can run any Evita RUU, but yes the one you mentioned is compatible. You absolutely must get s-off before running any RUU though or you will brick the phone. Follow the steps I mentioned before exactly and you should be ok.
Just realised I missed some of your questions. If you want use Kickdroid as your ROM you definitely can, it's a very good ROM. It's a bit hard to describe what a kernel is briefly, but put simply it's a separate level of firmware that controls how the software or OS (and you) interacts with with hardware. You don't need to flash a kernel, every ROM zip contains a kernel already, otherwise the phone wouldn't operate, it wouldn't even boot up. There are custom kernels available that allow a bit of extra tweaking, like overclocking (or underclocking) the CPU, undervolting, sound tweaks, and various other much more complicated tweaks.

Language
Hello how to add the Russian language in the system??? Maybe they cut. If there is a rom with a full range of languages and the last update, I need a rom without mods!
