[Q] Brick? - HTC One S

I am trying to restore my device to stock but i am unable to. Im trying to use the ruu. but i keep getting the 155 error. I relocked my bootloader but its not working. im using a telus htc one. My hboot is: 2.15.000 and radio 1.13.50.05.31. No os btw
But i can get to the bootloader

I might be wrong, but as far as I'm aware, it can't work on a locked bootloader, so you'll need to unlock it again.
Make sure you're using the correct ruu, double read the instructions for flashing it...
That's the most I can say, I don't really have that much experience in this.
Also, another option will be to send the stock ROM.zip to the phone using adb, flash a custom recovery, and boot into recovery and flash the ROM.

i could have swore that it needed to be locked. and to do adb,i need a os

still doesnt work

If you already have a custom recovery, you can use adb there without an os

The suggestion to relock the bootloader seems to be confirmed by this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1655832
If you didn't do it, you also need to restore the stock recovery.
Do you still have error 155?

I relocked the bootloader. I installed the stock recovery,from another post. i am pretty sure its the right one. yes i keep getting that error

If you want to be sure of the recovery you can find the good one in the RUU. You'll find guides to get the firmware.zip from the RUU on XDA.

Same problem here. Anyone have a android backup I can try?

I have the same issue but it says my phone says it is tapered. I want to go back to stock at least. What instructions did you follow for that?

not sure how to remove the "tampered" status but i got it back to stock using RRU method and load a stock Rogers Rom. you need to re-lock it before using RRU. my status now is Tampered and Relock.

Did you use the 1.94 RUU or did you try to Flash the 1.73 original?
You must root on 1.85. Scripts don't work on any other version.

Best way to root at this moment would be to unlock your bootloader using HTCDEV and flash TWRP recovery and then flash CleanRom 4.5 which will give you root as long as you kepp that rom on your phone. There could be other roms out there that will give you root access but I've flashed a few and CleanRom 4.5 was the only one that got me rooted. Until they come up with a way to perm root on 1.94 I suggest using this method.

If your bootloader is unlocked, you can root with any ROM.
If you unlock and flash a recovery-
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
and you cant get it to boot the custom recovery heres the trick, after you flash the recovery type
fastboot boot nameofrecovery.img

[Q] Fastboot - "remote: not allowed" problem

Hi.After search all one s forum .i couldnt find any solution. After facepalm s-off method. i installed engineered hboot 2.05 via twrp .
Now i cant run any fastboot command.There is no problem with using phone and i can flash aosp roms.but cant flash sense roms .it stucks.
i thing its a twrp recovery problem. and i want revert back an older version but i am getting error with fastboot.i flashed old hboot with twrp.Problem still exist .Any solution?
Im not sure about the hboot you flashed. 2.05? Where did you get it?
The other thing. You can flash recovery with app called Flash image GUI. Just download recovery.img and flash it by using that app.

From my experience, you must be unlocked to fastboot... doesn't matter if you are SOFF or not.

Yes you can. You don't need to achieve S-OFF to install custom ROM. I don't recommend you to install Official RUU ICS because it has been reported many times to be buggy and laggy. If you want a better feeling of that, you should install IceDS or IceCreamSaga ROMs.
I have another problem. I wanted put RUU-ICS, but always get message ERROR 155. Every time, I dont know why. I am from Serbia, and people from HTC send me a link for RUU - ICS, and when I start with proces- eject ERROR 155-every time, after I tried another RUU-ICS again error 155, I tried 4 RUU- ics, and always error 155.
Why I get always this message, and what I do?. S-ON, bootloader-relocked, rooted phone.
i tried this and i flashed a custom rom with s-on and it just keeps booting into recovery mode

Is your phone branded to any mobile carrier- by any chance?
Because if it was, to override the branded version by WWE 4.0.4

you should use < gold card >
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248095
If i remember correctly, error 155 refers to CID mismatch- wrong RUU version
But in your best interest is to double check what others say
Edit: unles something has changed,
there was only one ics ruu version for desire s
to be found on htcdev website..
How come you found four of them?

Since your device is still s-on you need flash the boot.img manually.
Extract the boot.img from the rom, boot your device into fastboot and enter
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

[Q] ROm Flashing issue

Hello,
I am trying to flash CleanRom 7.0 or any JB rom on my HTC One X (AT&T) but always gets stuck in bootloop (phone does not go past boot screen after flashing). This is what i have done.
The phone is on AT&T 1.82 stock room (rooted, SuperCID, S-Off). The phone was on some older HBoot version so I upgraded it to 2.15. Radio is 0.17.32.09.12. And I have TWRP recovery.
So I made a nadroid backup in recovery and than tried to install AT&T 3.82 rooted (downloaded from XDA, may be without radio and all). After successful flashing when I tried to reboot the system it got stuck on AT&T boot screen. So I rebooted in recovery and wiped everything. After that I tried to install CleanROM 7.0 R2 and same thing happened and even I tried latest elemental kernel but same thing is keep happening.
Can you please help me with this?
Thanks
At&t 3.82 rooted ROM? Where did you download that? It doesn't look familiar. What are your bootloader details? Which version of TWRP? How did you upgrade your hboot?

Hey,
Thanks for reply. Sorry I think I mis-wrote it. It's AT&T 3.18 ROM from following link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2181891
I will check and let you know TWRP version when I get back home. I am not sure about the bootloader details either, what you need to know about the boot loader to help me?
I upgraded hboot by upgrading firmware to 2.15 by using instructions at one of the threads at xda (using adb and fastboot commands and pushing a 2.15 zip to device when it is in bootloader).
Note that I was never able to install any custom ROM on HTC One X. I rooted it before a year or so tried to install CleanROM 5.1 (I guess) but it din't work. I also tried few other ROMs but nothing worked and I gave up. Recently I read that I may need to update Hboot to flash the ROMs. So I did it (had a hard time installing drivers on windows 8 and ultimately have to try winXP!). Still after all this it is not working.
Let me know if you can suggest something based on this.
Thanks

Ok so you need to give us more info
Are you s-off
What version of twrp do you have
These things matter when you flash a rom. If you are s-on you need to flash boot.img after flashing. Just do

One more thing, I am using TWRP to flash the ROM. Is it a correct way? or I need to flash it using fastboot commands (like you suggested for boot.img)?
I am not much fammilier with TWRP and HTC One X so.
Thanks
K so if you are s-off then you can just flash it. If you wernt then you would need to flash boot.img. now you can try to flash the boot.img. it might not fix it but start small and work up.

TWRP is the correct way to install ROMs, but I have a feeling that your current version of TWRP is your problem. Some (2.4.x, 2.5.x) are buggy and have major problems. If your TWRP version is either of those that I've just mentioned you can update it to a known bug-free version like this:
Download the modified version of TWRP*2.6 from here. Put the file in your fastboot folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode, open command prompt from within fastboot folder, issue the following commands:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"
(the exact filename, minus the talking marks)
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader

I get the same error... the Phone with a red exclamation mark with a triangle around it.. Is it because I'm rooted. I just searched and it might be it..
Should I follow the guide on theunlockr.com / 2014 / 03 / 18 / unroot-htc-one-mini /
So.. Should I only lock the bootloader or completely unroot it?
I'll try with only locking the bootloader in a sec..
Ok, here's what happens when I use fastboot oem lock : snag.gy / CnD59.jpg .. The bootloader shows as "RELOCKED", which is good.. but I still fail to install the update.. But regarding the un-rooting process, on theunlockr what is posted the .exe is US.. I'm from Bulgaria, which is Europe.. and if I download a UK version of the .exe will it still work ?
Edit.. will a tool like Revolutionary work? I saw it just sets the phone to S-OFF

I know that you can't get OTA with unlocked bootloader and rooted, and I don't think you can do it with a re-locked bootloader either.
OTA also failed for me with a "locked" bootloader, where i used revone to set the bootloader to Locked rather than Relocked.
The only way i've gotten OTA to install was to run the Att Ruu.exe to restore to stock. If i run update immediately after that, it works. If i do other things, like unlock, root, etc, the oTA fails, just the same as yours is failing.
If you want sense 6, the easiest way, from where you are now, would be to flash twrp 2.7.1.1 recovery, then install the stock sense 6 rom in the development section. If you're not on the latest firmware (hboot 2.22) then the path is a little longer, as you will have to s-off, then update firmware, then flash sense 6 rom.

Hboot was what i was referring to when i said firmware. Sorry, but i don't have any experience with 2.21 so i don't know what ROMs you can flash with it. If i had to guess, i would think one of the older sense 5.5 roms in the dev section would work on it, but i've never been on 2.21, so i can't tell you which ones with any confidence. I don't think any of the sense 6 Roms will work for you, but, again, i don't know for sure as i've never been on 2.21.
Tampered i think comes up when you use custom recovery. I don't know exactly what triggers it, but i don't think just flashing custom recovery does. I think it might happen when you use custom recovery to flash a ROM. It's just a flag and nothing to worry about. It doesn't prevent you from doing anything.
RUUs are executable files that can restore your device to stock. They are carrier and location specific, so you need to make sure you use the one for your carrier and location, if it is available. I said ATT RUU becuase I'm on ATT in the US. RUU files aren't available for every carrier in every country. If you are in the US on Att, i can help you with this. If you are somewhere else or on a different carrier, i can't.

I've unlocked my bootloader again as I think found a way to make the phone S-OFF.. I just have to root my phone again as it's not rooted -__- I don't want a custom ROM download, I want the stock one with no modifications or anything else.. ;/

Sorry. I missed where you said your location.
To upgrade your firmware, you have to s-off. There's a post somewhere around here that walks you through using revone, which I've done and had success with. I think I linked to it yesterday, so look through my old posts. If you can't find it, I'll send the link later.
But, yes, you have to be rooted to s-off.
I don't know about ruu for Bulgaria. Try looking on the HTC website, or your carrier's website.
The stock roms in the dev section seem to be pretty much 100% stock. I'm not a developer, so I don't know that they are for sure, but I think they are created directly from stock, just modified so you can flash then in recovery.

I tried revone about a hundred times with no success.. I just can't get it to work. I get an error 'Segmentation fault (core dumped)' and that's it -__- I tried googling but with no success.. I'm now trying rumrunner but as I look at the command prompt, it most likely won't succeed as well ;/ Yep.. it failed, said ERROR: looks like device is not rooted AND lacks an unsecure kernel. su or FU!!
!
I'm rooted and with unlocked bootloader, installed CWM as well
Edit:
So I found http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...-official-stock-sense-6-rom-firmware-t2817921 .. I'm gonna try it out now, it's the same as my update, so yeah..

I got both of those errors and they were because i really wasn't rooted even though i thought i was.

Yeah, I understood that the hard way.. Tried so many things, nothing worked.. just threw my phone (on a soft place, but still) and won't deal with anything 'til tomorrow.. I'm just so pissed at the moment. The root that should work and has worked before doesn't work now.. I really don't know what's wrong -__- gonna do everything all over again and try to get S-OFF and attempt to fix OTA updates.. ;/

Sorry. I've been there before. If i have time, i'll re-set my phone back to factory, s-on and see if i can remember what i did to fix that error. One possibility was that i didn't have a ROM installed, but i don't remember for sure. I'll see if I made any notes let you know if I remember what i did to fix.

What's your exact status:
Unlocked or Relocked?
Tampered?
Which recovery?
Version?
Is there an OS installed or did you wipe?
