Some questions, is your phone a standard DESIRE S, S-ON, with standard HBOOT etc?
I'd wait for someone with more Android experience than myself to confirm this, but, I believe that you should attempt to re-flash your original ROM (RUU). Which you should hopefully find somewhere in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1002506

Thanks for the reply.
It's S-ON, this is untouched so I guess standard HBOOT?
Is flash(ing) ROM can be done even phone is not rooted?
Also, been searching around and found this (almost) same problem encountered, regarding "No image...", but I'm hesitant coz now I have to start from scratch again after that(?). :/

You should be able to flash an official HTC ROM, without ROOT. Although if you are operator locked ie T-Mobile/Vodafone etc you may have to install one of their ROMS. Although I'm a little out of my depth/comfort zone with all this...
I may be well off the mark here, but, have you tried it, without your SD card inserted? give it a go?
What you found is related to something different. and related to image files stored on your SD card used for updating....which is what made me make the above suggestion.
After a factory reset you will have to start a fresh anyway.
Ohh. So it's not related.
My phone looks like this :
SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0. 98. 0000
RADIO-38. 03. 02. 15_M
e-MMC-boot
Mar 10 2011, 14:58: 38
HBOOT
vol <up>......
vol <down>......
POWER
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
FACTORY RESET
SIMLOCK
IMAGE CRC
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
FASTBOOT goes to BOOTLOADER menu which shows me the "No image..."
RECOVERY works but then after the process it turns off, and vibrate several times.
FACTORY RESET if selected, nothing happens, like it froze or something.
Did you try it without an SD as suggested?
The IMAGE errors I think (but could be wrong) are as a result of FASTBOOT auto checking for the existence of update files on your SD and simply not finding any!
Does it say Checking.....
If you select FASTBOOT then REBOOT what happens? Phone hangs? with what screen?
Hopefully someone else will add some advice soon?

Yes, I did. It's same.
If I put the SD in it, when chosing FASTBOOT the errors looks like the attachment in this topic : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=703761
Yes it say Checking...
Doing FASTBOOT then REBOOT shuts down the phone then restarts it and hangs at the green HTC logo.
I really wish someone can help me.
BTW, regarding the ROM's you provided above, what do you suggest is the one for me? I really don;t have any idea. I'm from Asia (Philippines) and phone is not locked by a mobile carrier.

I've found a very similar sounding problem experienced by another user in this thread
I'm afraid that I don't know which of those ROMS would be best for you, I imagine one of the HTC ones, sorry....
Ensure that you continue to keep charging your device. Now, I'm grasping at straws now, but have you tried the above without a SIM inserted?
Same problem
I had the same problem much times!
I had to Factory Reset my phone every time it freezes!
When i did a factory reset, it was all ok until it appeared again
The only solution i found was to factory reset the phone..

Yes, I also did that. Unfortunate, nothing happens, if it does not froze it boots to that green HTC logo and stops there.
I guess the only solution is to bring this to the store where I purchased it.

I've seen another user @Skanob also from the Phillipines, if you look at the details within his signature in the following post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14748687&postcount=4 you should see details of the RUU ROM that you can/should try to flash.
I am actually downloading it now.
Hope this will fix it.
This will not void the warranty, right? Coz I'm gonna bring the phone to the service center later (it's 12.30AM here atm).

I'll be perfectly honest, I don't know if this voids warranty....sorry..
Ultimately, you're only putting back the same ROM as the phone has on it originally, but, bear in mind that in the other thread I posted above, re-flashing the original ROM didn't resolve the issue, so if there's any doubt that this might void the warranty - don't do it!

Flashing RUU won't void the warranty. How long are you waiting on the htc logo screen? It can take a while after factory reset...
It might be that some files were corrupted so flashing RUU should help. If not, connect your device to computer and see what logcat is showing

The longest was 25 minutes, then had it reboot again coz nothing happened. Also, when doing the Factory Reset it just hangs/do nothing, can't choose any option from the menu, have to remove the battery to turn the device off.
I'm gonna bring the phone to the service center in a while.
hi friends,
i have just f*cked up my desire S!! pls help me out!!
i have done S-OFF with XTC - Clip and also ENG HBOOT,
i tested some coustom roms on my new device till now.
now i tell you what i did:
i had this rom on my device:
[ROM] 06-13-2011 SAGA LBC MOD v0.5.1 link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048203
then i wiped all data and cache over costum recovery (vers. 3.2.0.0)
after wiping i flashed this rom:
[ROM][Jun 14] Virtuous Unity 1.24.0 Sense 3.0 based on Pyramid link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122797
and rebooted my phone!
i also read that the recomanded radio for this rom is:
Recommended radio: 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2
but i downloaded the wrong radioimage - file and i flashed instead this one:
http://files.virtuousrom.com/vision/radio/Vision_RADIO_12.52.60.25_26.08.04.30_M3.img
i flashed the radiorom with fastboot ober adb - everything was OK but i took the wrong radio ROM so after reboot the device does NOT boot!!!!
AND i cant get to BOOTLOADER or recovery!!! USB is also bricked!!! my PC can not find my device ( ADB)
so i NEEED help pls help me out devs!!!
i don't think the desire s has JTAG. i could be mistaken though.
does the phone register as a usb device at all when you connect to usb and push the power button?
PUSH
@ all devs in here!!!
pls help me out if possible,
NO bootloader, no USB (ADB), no recovery, NOT booting --> is my device DEAD?!?
is there any chance to get back to life without any further hardware (JTEG - BOX)?!
nothing happens when i conect my desire s to my pc!
well to 99,9999% except if you are hardware developer and know how to write to the chip directly - yes it is dead
So, this means if you flash the wrong radioimage, it can kill your phone?

yes, i had bricked 1 year ago my htc magic with this
depends on the device, for example my old DHD recovered it's radio after i flashed a raido of the desire z, so it looks liek some devices got a protection against it
anyway, wondering why the desire s didn't has that protection when the dhd has, but can be duo locked down bootloader so they won't need it
i have to say i am surprised that flashing the wrong radio breaks it. the bootloader should remain unaffected by this and therefore still kick in and allow to flash a correct radio rom

I have always been told flashing the wrong radio will cause a brick. This thread seems to explain it for me. But whether this goes for every device I don't know.
Thanks for the link, L0cke.
But the initial question from the OP in that thread never got a precise answer...
"All I'm asking is to know exactly what is the real, down and dirty dynamics behind the radio flashing danger so I can be absolutely sure to avoid it in the future. I have yet to see a truly understandble explanation of this."
Can someone answer this in understandable words?
I actually never flashed a radio with my old Desire, even though I flashed roms like crazy and it always worked for me. I knew that flashing a radio is a critical process, so I thought unless something didn't work at all, I don't need to touch this radio stuff...
Over 600 views but no answer so far. I fear that I really ****ed up my new device.
If any dev knows a solution pls help. Remember I have S-OFF and ENG-hboot also.

if there is absolutley no life in it then its bricked and you cant do a thing anymore besides going to the store and tell them in the morning when you woke up it didnt turn on anymore.
ive done that with a samsung galaxy s 1 and i got a new one under warranty
if there is any sign of life then tell precise what kind of life there is in the phone then there mgiht be a chance of recovering it i think
i mean when you plug it in the ac will the charging light burn?
when you turn it on will there be any message on the screen?
if nothing is seen do you see the backlight of the screen turn on but dont display a thing

Adb doesnt recognize the phone you said.
Any idea about fastboot commands?
As it still turns on it should be able to do something.
Instead of booting bootloader could you try recovery with vol UP and power
What happens when you do that?
Edit: not sure if that whas the combo as it dont work on my dhd. Will try it tonight when i get home on my gf here desire s

Hello,
So i have a new HTC Desire S, i just rooted it with HTC Quick Root, everything was good but when i flashed cwm-4.0.1.4-saga.img it didn't booted again i flashed the recovery via fastboot and in HBOOT, my HTC Desire S was a S-OFF.
Now it wont start even, if i press the power button nothing happens, what could be the possible solution for this?
I think i just corrupted my HBOOT , because i flashed CWM img as HBOOT img, that was a bad way though. But someone here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29400702&postcount=21 said it can be recovered but they are telling the ways for the other HTC models, can this be applied to HTC Desire S as well? As mine condition is same like this OP said.

It should work, but its a big risk. Most HTC phones have basically the same methods for unlocking, rooting etc. So this should not be different. The best action you can take would be to get it serviced. Unless you can't do it. This method could work.
Hey all, my One X won't boot past the splash screen.
I unlocked the bootloader this morning (HTC Dev Official) and the device worked fine. I then went a step further to root the device and the process I was using stalled and canceled out on me. I'm now left with a phone that doesn't get past the splash screen no matter weather I click on factory reset or recovery in the menu.
Not quite sure what to do, tried finding a RUU for my device but I couldn't find one that matched. (Not that I was entirely sure what I was looking for) I've cleared the fastboot cache with no avail.
First post here, thanks for any help or suggestions that you guys have.
You need to provide more information if you want help, it's very hard to help someone who just says "I tried something and it didn't work".
First off, do you have the One X or the One XL / at&t One X? What are your bootloader details? Which root exploit did you try?

Sorry, I realise I've left a few important parts out. It's a a One X International (Tegra 3 I believe), it's got S-on, and the bootloader is unlocked. I used this root kit (I can't post the link here, but here's the youtube vid name 'HTC One X - How To Root (Easy)') and halfway through the rooting process, it said 'Error, can't communicate with device'. Then I'm stuck at the splash screen.
I've successfully flashed TWRP 2.3 onto the device, and have just managed to copy the CM 10.3 onto the sd card, however when trying to install the zip I get an error message.
Thanks again, Hope that I make a little more sense this time.

I see a message about "Development use only for HTC" or whatever when booting into the bootloader (or recovery...or both...I can't remember), but it doesn't affect anything. Is that what you're referring to? Also, remove Weaksauce like the S-Off instructions told you to do.
And what exactly is this "mess" you're in? If a message flashes across your screen and then your phone finishes booting into the ROM, that doesn't exactly sound like a mess to me...

If flashing the superuser zip didn't work correctly for you, that's an issue you should probably look into...
Like I said, I don't see it say "tampered", I just see the "This build is for development purposes only" message when I boot into recovery. You're sure you see it when booting normally into the ROM itself?

Yeah, but unless if he also flashed a custom boot.img (or a ROM that has a custom boot.img included), or is actually booting into recovery when he sees it, he shouldn't be seeing it when he boots into the ROM itself.
Edit: I just misread the OP, apparently he may be using a custom ROM, I didn't notice that before.
