[Q] E8 already unlocked? - HTC One E8

Hi,
I just swap my G3 with this E8 (which I really like), and I want to install a custom recovery on it. When I'm going to bootloader mode it says:
TAMPERED
UNLOCKED
MEC_DUGL PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT - 3.18.0.0000
RADIO - 1.18.30306251.05G
OPENDSP - v38.2.2-00542-M8974-0311
OS-
eMMC-boot 2048 MB
Jun 10 2014, 19:11:41.27805
What do I have to be aware of this info to make the right steps for unlocking and installing custom rom and also if I want to revert to stock (is it enough if I'm doing a full backup with custom recovery then to restore it whenever I want? )

you have already unlocked your bootloader, now you can flash any recovery (CWM is recomended) so there is nothing to worry about if your planing to flash custom ROM's. Reverting to stock, you need a stock recovery and a suitable RUU, that's it I think

thanks for your answer. Do you know where can I find a proper RUU for my device?
Also, can you help me out with a link for CWM?
P.S. I bought the E8 as new, so it came already unlocked.

This is RUU thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-e8/help/htc-one-e8-mid-cid-ruu-ota-twrp-t2903210 )
and here you can find your recovery ( https://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager )
your welcome

I can't find any M8 or E8 CWM. and btw, do you have any clue if the M8 CWM is compatible with E8?

I think this is the right place to go: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...u-ota-twrp-t2903210/post55979635#post55979635

Hi all,
I just got a new Desire S curtisy of O2 in the uk and noticed the HBOOT of 2.00.0002 which is not listed by the Revolutionary 0.4Pre4.
I was just wondering if there was another way or unless im missing somehing obvious.
Thanks in advance
You need to downgrade and then use revolutionary.

Cheers mate, Just found it :/
Man, these capcha's are SO annoying. WHy the hell on every post someone does? It's just annoying!
ANyways, Back on topic, I'm trying download HTCDEV for 'all other supported phones' from here:
http://htcdev.com/bootloader/
The problem is, It doesnt download. ANd when i change it to another option it still does sweet FA.
Is there anywhere else download this, Specificully, the all other phones option?
THanks for help and heres to the next annoying captcha
EDIT: A reboot sorted that problem out. Weird, but fixed
Well, I followed this guide:

Its gone from locked to unlocked but isnt it meant to say S-OFF, not S-ON?
THe main problem though is i've loaded REAPER 2.2 Mod with the 2.21 upgrade but it seems to get stuck on a boot loop while booting up
Any idea's?
SOrry for noob questions, I've never done this myself as i got a friend to do it before. ANd thanks for the help
Dude, you have just unlocked the boot loader.
HTC dev unlock process will not give you S-off, also can cause some warranty issues (don't be disheartened)
Now you need to download a custom recovery and flash it via fastboot.
I would recommend 4ext touch.
Then flash any custom ROM. The guide should have all the details.

I've done that, i used 4EXT_Recovery_v2.2.7_RC5.zip and thats ok. I cleared caches, Changed from 3EXT to 4EXT and then installed REAPER 2.2 then used update 2.2.1 over the top.
So i have 4EXT Recovery installed! I installed the ROM (off SDCARD) with this program and when i reboot it goes into a Boot Loop graphic and stays there.
4EXT Recovery Touch is just a touchscreen version of the one i used no?

Thank you.With that guide I downgraded my hboot by installing RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.47.401.4_Radio_20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M_release_199410_signed and revolutionary S-OFF.Flashed recorvery 4ext touch 1.0.0.6 RC1 and flashed Unofficial "Nightly" CM11.0 [20140228] by devil-kin and everything works.No FC com.android.phone.I can select 2G or 3G without problem.I will try tomorrow to change hboot to 7.00.1002 and radio to 20.76.30.0835U_3831.19.00.110 but for now CM11 works without problems.
Update: After reboot got FC com.android.phone.Switched to 3G and reboot and works good.Tomorrow will try new hboot and radio.
Success in flashing new hboot and radio.Having some issues with CM11 so I restored CM10.2.

Hi, in your signature not details, please tell me how i can downgrade HBOOT
I tried htcdev but my rom version is 2.10.401.8 and not listed on there
Is it now possible to S-OFF a Desire S since the revolutionary site is no longer active ? I can unlock the bootloader via HTCDEV but I'd like to get S-OFF if possible ?

Maybe a slightly naive question......but I obviously need to downgrade my HBOOT to achieve S-OFF on the phone via the Rev method.
Can I restore my HBOOT version back to 2.00.0002 without running another RUU through it or is there another method.
My MIUI ROM works OK under 2.00.0002 should expect problems if it it runs under an earlier version ?

[Q] [HELP] Installed CWM, factory reset, now can't flash Custom ROMs or Restore

I used One_X_All-In-One_Kit_v1.0 to install CWM then stupidly (I admit) and
drunkenly (I'm ashamed to admit) wiped data without creating a restore
point and when I flash custom ROMs and reboot my device freezes on the HTC
boot screen.
I've managed to locate my CID & MID (cid: ORANG001 & mid: PG5813000) and
have added them to the android-info.txt located in PG58IMG.zip but when I
boot into bootloader and select fastboot the update is found but parsed
rather than flashed.
Some additional information:

Bit of a mess really. Any ideas?
If you've installed CWM for a different phone and wiped, then you're lucky it still works at all.
Install the right version of CWM right now.

It appears that you are HTC Dev unlocked. Because of that you will have to flash the boot.img via fastboot commands. Go to this guide to learn
how to do it.
But your Hboot version is supported by Revolutionary so I suggest you re lock your bootloader and then use Revolutionary to S-off your device before flashing the 3.32 firmware you will have to flash for any ICS ROM. Cause without you being S-off you will not be able to revert your firmware version. Plus if you are S-off your recovery can flash everything and you will not have to use fastboot to or Smart flash option in 4EXT.
I'm surprised your phone still works after using the One X method to root; considering the One X is a different phone.
Here the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 for reference to S-Off and stuff. I recommend you change you change your CID to 11111111 as well.
Change your recovery to 4EXT. Better in my perspective.
Firstly, thank you Rusty!, T-Macgnolia and You_got_owned123.
So, I've downloaded 4EXT recovery and will flash it and I understand that I need to be S-OFF before I can flash new firmware and if I change to Super CID I can flash any carriers firmware. But.... I need to be able to boot the phone to enable HTC Sync to run Revolution. Or is there a way to run it in Fastboot usb?
As soon as I achieved S-OFF I can change to SuperCID.
BOOM!
Okay... so, I flashed 4EXT recovery (which is much better that ClockworkMod) then flashed a Gingerbread ROM (Android_Revolution_HD-Sensation_3.6.13) as it was compatible with my existing firmware and flashed the boot.img for the 1.56 kernel then used Revolutionary tool to achieve S-OFF so I could flash an ICS ROM (Sensation_3.32.401.5_odexed), GAPPS and update the firmware. I didn't SuperCID as I knew the firmware was compatible but may do that later while it's fresh in my mind.
That wasn't so hard, phew!!!

Haha, good job. Just make sure you use the approperiate firmware when flashing ICS ROMS. ICS require a different firmware than GB does.

[Q] How to reset phone to stock COMPLETLEY?

Hello, I've had an HTC Sensation for about 1 year now, and I would like to sell it (on ebay) with everything stock.
Currently the phone is running an early build of CyanogenMod 10 pyramid (Android version 4.1.2.)
I have also made the phone S-Off with the JuopunutBear method.
Info about bootloader:
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT - 1.27.1111
RADIO - 11.23.3504.07_M2
OpenADSP - v02.6.0.2226.00.0131
eMMC - boot
One more note, I have also installed a custom recovery, ClockworkMod Recovery v5.8.0.9 and it is a touch recovery.
Again, I would like to S-Off the phone, install the original recovery (if possible) and the latest stock ROM.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

[Q] How can I update to JB my unlocked and rooted ICS?

I have original rom on my One-S (S4) and I'd like to do the update to the original JB.
But I have unlocked the bootloader, rooted the phone and installed a custom recovery.
Is there a tutorial to guide me to the upgrade?
I know that there are already custom roms out there with JB, but I'd like to do a full original update, so that aslo the drivers will be updated.
On boot screen I see:
tampered
unlocked
vle pvt ship s-on rl
hboot-1.14.0002
radio-1.06es.50.02.31
openDSP-v29.1.0.45.0622
eMMC-boot
and as recovery I have ClockworkMod recovery v5.8.1.5
How can I do? It is better to upgrade to official rom (with official radio and kernel) or to install a custom rom? (I want to do this upgrade, so the point is not to upgrade or not, but only how).
I really need a guide to do all the steps.
Thanks
I wouldnt use the stock update, but thats just me, Im not a big fan of stock stuff.
But to get the stock junk, you need to flash the original recovery, then you can just install the OTA... Or should be able to at least.
Ok, so, how to reinstall original rom? and maybe relock bootloader and reinstall original recovery.... so, how to reverto everything to its original state?

Hi!!
Look,
So your phone is not bricked and you have the original bootloader, right?
Then you must re-lock your phone!
HTC's RUUs only work when locked
Also, your phone's CID must be the same than the RUU's CID you are trying to install...
This file: RUU_K2_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.17.401.3_Radio_0.12.4 0.00.14_2_10.49.40.11L_release_302178_signed
is only for the 3g version (HTC one sv model C520e) and is not compatible with the 4g LTE version (HTC ones sv model C525e)
better still get superCID.....then you can flash an One SV RUU you want
