Need to unroot and s-on.

My phone's flex cable is damaged some how and I need to unroot it and turn s-on, anyone able to give me some helpful links? I searched and not sure if anything I found was still viable to use.
I am running 2.3 and have updated radio.

Just run the ruu. You can get the 2.2 ruu from the hboot downgrade thread or the 2.3 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335068

Thanks, to add to it, my screen now won't come on at all, any one can give me a bit of step by step?

Will the screen come on while in bootloader or it doesn't work at all? Either way, as long as your pc will recognize the phone you should be able to run the RUU exe. Just plug in your phone with it powered on and run the RUU on your pc.

Will that turn my s-off to s-on also?

Yup, the RUU will bring you completely back to stock with s-on.

Bricked HTC ONE X AT&T

I checked all the other bricked threads and none have the same problem as me.
My HTC ONE X will not boot and or charge. I cannot get access to the bootloader or recovery.
My HTC ONE X had it's bootloader unlocked via the rogers htc-dev method. I also installed clockwork recovery. It is rooted also but you prob figured that already...
I pulled a bonehead move by flashing the MIUI rom the international one x by changing the update script to flash onto my phone. After it flashed it looked like it worked. When I left recovery and shut the phone off it would not turn back on.
I called AT&T they said they will switch it for me when they get a shipment but I want to keep this phone because the boatloader is unlocked and they might patch the rogers method.
Thanks in advanced.
P.S. I know how to use adb and other tools such as RUU and they did not work.

Have you tried holding the power button for 10 seconds to reset it? You should see the 3 lights below flashing.

Ouch.... Another loss for htc sales

you cant get to hboot? 0.o

First of all, you should be able to get to H-Boot by holding volume down when turning it on.
Second of all, this is why they lock the bootloader in the first place.

H-Boot key combo is not working.
I have been flashing roms since the samsung moment, I built and modified roms on my EVO and ported roms from other phones to the EVO. I always had recovery to fall back onto to get my phone booting again. Even when I had the Xperia Play that required a PC to boot recovery I was still able to get the phone to work. This phone is strange that is will not even turn onto H-boot/Bootloader.

Im glad I have my iPhone to fall back on but it is really annoying that I cannot even get the bootloader to load. I only had it 3 days and already broke it.
Thank God the dude at AT&T cannot get into the bootloader also to see that is was tampered with so they are giving me a replacement.

And people wonder why at&t locks their phones down. I'm guessing you just told them "my phone broke...I have no idea what happened". Just lovely.

Honestly, not trying to call you stupid or something, but did you really think it was going to run on this phone when it was meant for another one? The GPU and CPU are completely different...
Anyway, I'm glad AT&T is replacing it for you. Hopefully if someone else bricks the same way then they will be able to get a replacement as well.

so you are smart enough to use adb, an RUU, unlock your bootloader, root, flash roms.......but you aren't smart enough to see the hundreds of posts saying that the international roms don't work on our phones??

lol

Coming from a phone that is virtually unbrickable (Captivate), I'm quite curious about how you managed to get it into this state. What exactly did you flash? Did the package contain both the system image and bootloaders for the tegra3 one x?

Just pull the batte..... oh

My EVO was unbrickable too, I flashed a rom that was designed for the international version. It only contained system and other basic rom stuff, nothing that was crazy.

No idea why you wouldn't be able to boot into recovery then. I hope all HTC handsets aren't like this..

Omg no!!! Phone is self updating!!!

It is 1.85 I woke up and is updating?! it wont stop no matter what I try.
HELP!! STOP THESE MADNESS!!!
IT's at 50% now!!!

I had to Hard reset at 91% and restore factory settings.
It saved it at least... but have to redo all the phone again...
Now I'm not sure why my phone hour is not right and I can't fix this.
Anyways I had no choice, I didn't had my phone rooted yet.

yeah thats the reason i just rooted and unlocked the bootloader, i got sick of that and understood that it would just update if i didnt do anything. Spend a couple of hours and do it and load Viper and never worry again. If you already have to set up your phone again, do it on a nice rom

Totally different things .... Sim unlock and bl unlock are different...with 1.85 go find one of the 1.85 root methods follow instructions root it and than look the bl unlock thread in our development section and get your bootloader unlocked .. than download goo manager and flash twrp

Again NO need to get a new similar actually it will do nothing bbut waste your earned money

Ok I'll admit it...
I snuck behind enemy lines today and pushed the big red update button today.
I was jealous of those of you with 1.85. I'm sorry

But 1.85 can be rooted, or did that get patched up as well. Thought only 2.20 was not root-able.

Anybody still on 1.73 I recommend updating to 1.85.....had some fixes and its perfectly safe for rooting and unlocking

Thank you so much

Lost my chance... now I have to wait for the 2.20 exploit.
Oh well...
I am dumb doing all these things on my own.
I have no idea how I was able to do it when I had my HTC Tilt.
It kept popping the update add and today it said after 8 hours it will update automatically.

i'm pretty sure the ota doesn't force itself.
why didn't you go ahead and root/unlock? it only takes a few minutes to root,unlock,recovery,rom.

If you can't do one clicks on your own...umm.... I.guess 2.20 is the rom for you

At the moment I started working on this, my connection got terrible bad and lost it.
I was also having trouble with the clock settings and every time I changed it it asked me about the update.
And then it told me that next time I pospone it it will force to update.
So... no internet yet and I was pissed off because the date settings where not correct and trying to fix it... It began to update in a black screen and a harddisk and I couldn't do anything at this point.
I thought about forcing it off somehow but I didn't do it in case it could screw all up badly so I had no other choice.
Anyways... I can wait until 2.20, The programers always find their ways to exploits so I'm sure it will happen soon

Root and unlock the bootloader while you still can. Then you can flash whatever stock or custom ROMs you want. You'll always be ahead of the curve compared to those unrooted/locked, and never be jealous again. There are stock and custom ROMs already based on 2.40 and 2.41 now.

New to Inspire

Hey guys, I just picked up a Inspire as a play toy since my cousin upgraded.. What in looking for is a RUU for the latest update if there is any.. 2.3.5, firmware 3.20 if I'm not mistaken. (Its not in front of me at the moment).. I've tried numerous sites and it seems as though they don't exist anymore..
Quick history, phone worked fine. Bone stock, never rooted or unlocked. So she took the latest update, and ever since then it has problems... Main thing is when the screen goes black, it reboots. EVERY SINGLE TIME. So I decided to unlock via htcdev, fastbooted twrp 2.4.4.0, and flashed a rom to see if it fixed it. Flashed jellytime and respective gapps, no dice. Phone is still rebooting upon locking. Last resort is a ruu... I've tried over clocking, overvolting, etc... No go. I'm not ruling out hardware 100%, but bc it didn't do this before the update makes it last on my list... Any advice?

Hey thanks man. I'll give that a shot .
One more question, if I flash the stock lower firmware zip, would that be enough to run the aahk to s-off? Or is there more to it than that? Last time I tried it said the firmware was not supported up to that version

I wouldn't recommend flashing a lower firmware.... Not sure if anything bad will happen but it does not seem like a good idea. Besides, aahk has been retired. There is no support for it and it is only for advanced users.
You can try glevitans tool in the development section to unlock your bootloader but he two has left these forums due to too many self rightious (or however you spell that) noobs.

Right... I'm already unlocked and rooted.. So there's no way to s-off without jumping through hoops? Lol... I can throw out some fastboot and adb commands... But as far as DD'ing blck partitions I'll just give up on s-offing

Hopefully someone could give a few more opinions before I throw this thing in the trash can... I'm still having the reboot issue... I can use it for hours on end as long as the screen is on. It will stay on if its connected to any power source... But when its not plugged in and the screen locks it reboots about 3 seconds later...
Didn't do this before I took the 2.35 ota.. I've tried 15 different ROMs, different kernels, I tried overclocking and trying to get rid of deep sleep. Don't know what else to do. I'd love to try to raise the voltage but every kernel/ROM I use doesn't give me that option.
Also I'd like to mention when I boot into bootloader it immediately searches for pd98img.zip. is this normal? I never seen another boot loader look for a certain file..
Anyway, any help will be appreciated... I'd hate to get rid of this phone if its fixable...
This is the bootloader

Constant Switching from 4g/3g/edge

So I have used TMOUS rom for ALONG time and recently decided to switch to use Cyanogen being a fan of it form other platforms.
While on the TMOUS rom I had 4g connectivity in my area about 90% of the time with the occasional drop into 3g here and there. It always displayed a 4g image in the top.
When I switched to Cyanogen that pretty much stoped. It always says 3g and is slow as hell. every once in awhile it will say H+ but not for long. MOST of the time it is constantly switching between 3g/4g/edge then shutting off.
Now im not sure if its a rom problem or not, but its making me want to switch back to a TMOUS rom.
Any suggestions would be great!
Edit: Just for clairification, I am S-On

I have this problem as well. I even ran the ruu back to stock and it is still happening. Please and thank you!

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be a hardware problem
I have been trolling the net for weeks but have not found a solution yet.
I've posted in threads here but no solution.....
My issues started when I went to CM ROM - I used to have great 4g all the time before I went to custom rom (I was on stock TMO US) .. Now no matter what I do, I am not able to get 4G again.... it's really irritating...
I've tried a bunch of custom ROMS.. I am on 1.13 HBOOT and S-ON .. .. CID = HTC__001 (originally my CID was stock TMO US CID whatever that is but now its not that.. I don't wan to run RUU because I don't have TMO US CID and dont want to brick my phone)

You can set your CID back easily with the All in One ToolKit found here.http://www.hasoon2000.info/getdownload.php?file=One%20S/One_S_All-In-One_Kit_v4.0.rar
That is not the problem, unfortunately. It just doesn't make much sense, whatever the problem is; and especially considering after a full RUU restock. That has always fixed whatever mess I have created in the past.

This rom should fix your problem. Dont forget to clear storage from bootloader. It will erase everything thoug. And follow the steps under show contents link.

I not sure if its a CID problem. The only thing I ever did was upgrade to the newest Hboot and load in the CM rom. even going back to the TMOUS rom does not fix the problem.
Its so bad, and never on 4g that im considering getting a new phone.

I'm in the same boat, friend. I've tried literally everything suggested, I'm just wondering what exactly happened in the flashing of the Maximus rom. The worst part being is that I GET 3g/H and then it drops back to E. It's so strange. The only thing I've not done is contact Tmobile about it, and i highly doubt that they would throttle my bandwidth without contacting me in some form or fashion.

From what I've read, it's doable; even with an unlocked phone. But I'd really like to know what in the dev's source code made this happen... it's a bit ridiculous.

I did this the first time, but i just flashed the rom with a full wipe.
This time what I did was go into TWRP and erased everything....and I mean everything except TWRP.
After that i flashed the rom and boot.img and everything works great. 4g all the time again!

So what I did first was go into TWRP and selected wipe. Inside wipe i selected EVERYTHING, every little box. Then Wiped it.
This left nothing on the phone but the recovery. I then loaded on SuperSU from TWRP. I download the stock TMOUS rom that was posted earlier in this post.
In TWRP I mounted it and hooked it to computer and transfered the rom over.
Once the rom was on I did the install of the rom.
I rebooted the rom into bootloader.
Once in bootloader i put it into fastboot.
I had previous extracted the boot.img from the rom.
I sent the boot.img over via fastboot which restarted the phone.
Once it got all started up. No issues. I am on 4g 99% of the time now.
Im thinking the issue was definatly based in the CM rom.
Since this worked I wanted to test things out since my phone was pretty much stripped of everything.
I tried out Viper rom and a couple of other non CM based roms, and I have had no issues.
IM back on teh TMOUS rom though. Wifi calling will win over when i go overseas.

Thanks, but it did not work for me. It is a hardware issue on mine. Thanks again

Must be.
I did find something out though doing all my research. Did you ever at any point update the radio? TMobile uses some frequencies that some companies dont use.
It is my understanding that some of these roms are packed with radios that are generic and thus ment for multi carriers.
Not sure if thats your issue, but might want to look into.
Its nice being back on 4g though.
