Find out what SPL you have. You can do that in fastboot mode while powering down your phone. And then press Home+End/Power to get it there. Write down the first lines in the application.

it is unlock as i have the same phone. you need to root it first then flash whatever you want. its so easy after rooting......... flash direst from sd card by using home+power button when phone is off as no need for all that adb push stuff. you can actually place the Rav1.1.1G.img straight to sd card without all the messing........ if you look at commands that all you doing anyway.............but using sdk tools. i use an external card reader to copy all files over, pop back in phone and do ma thing

hi every buddy i have a problem with my htc inspire from AT&T i root it and installed a costume rom but now it dosnt want to read any sim card even the AT&T Sim card can someone tell me what I can do
Which rom are you trying to use?
I know this is a stretch, but did you ever put a lock on your SIM card? So if you boot up the phone you need to enter a code? Maybee a friend tried to get in the phone and for security purposes the phone burns out the SIM...
thanks man look the custom rom im using now is CoreDroid_Desire_HD_GB_2.3.3_V6.6_RV, the first one was gingerbread 2.3 and it works good with any sim card so then i put the coredroid hd but i dont know what happen to it and now i restored to original att software and i did the same steps but it cant read any sim card..
When you rooted, did you set S-off? If not, that could be causing the problem; one of the ROMs might have been from another carrier and set to only accept their SIM cards. When you boot into bootloader (volume-down + power) you should see something like this at the top:
ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF
If you don't see that, re-run the hack kit and select S-OFF from the menu.
Hi
Please help me my HTC Desire S stuck on fastboot and bootloader after change the hboot to 0.98.0000 s-on
i cant using adb to change the hboot ;(
i cant install my official rom ruu htc saga ara 1.36.415.1 ;( error 140 i dont know why my current rom 1.47.415.1 and i did that before
i cant install ruu htc saga europe 2.10.401.5 ;( error 131
i cant create goldcard cuz i dont know the sd card cid "i cant using adb on fastboot"
Plz tell me what can i do???
Well, I'm not sure there is a lot to do when you're S-ON. But I would give Android Flasher a try. It worked for me, even if adb couldn't recognize my phone.
Thanx my friend i will try it
Android flasher doesnt work with hboot S-ON.
U can make gold card on other android device. And then, u can run RUU Europe 1.28.
If you can't, you can take to Services or S-OFF by XTC-clip
I had the same problem, but do not dispair you can fix this.
Obviously one point you have missed on the whole goldcard thing is that you dont have to use ADB or your bricked phone to find out the CID, put it into a card reader and use your PC. So onto making yourself a goldcard.
The process of creating one is rather hit and miss, but I eventually got one to work. Make sure you use an MicroSD card that is 2GB or smaller as any larger than this and it's a SDHC card and wont work. I used a old 1GB Sandisk card my girlfriend had spare. Have a look on the forums for a goldcard.exe file to run on windows to simplify the process, I found this worked when the forum described method did not. Keep trying with this as it took me many attempts to get a working goldcard.
From your post it sounds like you want to install the cool new Android 2.3.5 with Sense 3.0. Your problem is your phone will not take the European RUU 2.10.401.5 as your phone is from another region - 1.47.415.1 (india?) and got screwed up in the process. The bold part of the software version number relates to region. Mine was from Thailand and the european update worked when installed with my goldcard.
When you have your goldcard created you need to extract the ROM.zip file from the RUU (just run the exe and look in your PCs temp directory whilst the exe is open, it unpacks itself there) and then rename this to PG88IMG.zip. Put this file onto your goldcard and then power on your Desire S whilst holding the Vol. down button.
If you still get errors like 130 or 140 your goldcard is not made correctly, so try again.
Once you have the new update working take yourself to htcdev.com and unlock the bootloader, then you can flash CWM recovery and root it as well.
Hope this helps
thanxxxxxxxxx all really i miss these solutions because i was very confuse
thanx again for all i will try it and give u my feedback

One tiny correction on this part, I use a 16GB SanDisk Class 6 GoldCard. Means its an SDHC and I haven't had any problems with it.
i just notice that my phone is locked again after using ICS with 3.32 base sometime....
im changing of carrier and i would like to know what is the easiest way to RE-unlock my phone (when i bought it i Used this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16125079) but now i just want to unlock my phone...
can someone help me please?
When you say 'Locked' do you mean in the HBOOT? That's because it over-writes the original HBOOT when the ICS update goes through
Are you still S-OFF? If so, you can still flash CWM/4EXT via HBOOT using a PG58IMG.zip file
With locked I mean I can use only one sim cardx before I could use any some card is want, my phone got sim locked after installing ics and id like to know how to get sim unlocked again, yeah I'm s-off and rooted using insert coin 5.1.6 right now

there are 2 methods to unlock the bootloader described in this forum.

So how do you know your phone is SIM locked ? Does it boot up and display a message? such as invalid SIM or anything like that ??
have you tried this method ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1232107
I didnt know sensations came simlocked just thought they came full of bloatware and locked bootloaders lol
Ive been with vodafone for about 3 years now, they have never given me a simlocked phone.

i read that in that tutorial it works perfectly but the link to download the PG58.. links are broken so i cant use that method atleast someone post that archive :/
i know, many broken links around here. ask trkaaa before trying the official unlocking from htc, http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/ but since u s-off, rooted, super cid'ed, i see no harm there.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233513
EDIT: Ignore that,,,,, Its a link to another link.... which idiot posted that lol
well i already try with htcdev.com and still the same :/
anyone has the PG58DIAG file that could share it to me??
i really need to be unlocked x_X
Call t mobile for the unlock code. Phone locked to carrier has nothing to do with H Boot, HTC unlock, s off, etc. If you never SIM unlocked it to begin with you were lucky it worked on other Networks. There's a thread in development section to SIM unlock your phone.

my phone was sim unlocked when i followed the tutorial, when i bought it it was locked to Tmobile, but after and used the tutorial i could use it with any simcard, i inserted a Telcel simcard, but after i upgrade to ICS the phone is locked again to Telcel, i cannot use any other simcard "just telcel ones" and i cannot call to Tmobile because im from mexico and i bought the phone from ebay
This might be a shot in the dark but have you tried flashing your backup before flashing ICS and tried another Network SIM and see if it works? Was the Telcel SIM in it when you flashed? My thinking is if you go back to GB see if the unlock works again and if it does then you should then try flashing back to ICS without a SIM card in it and see if it is then not locked to a Network. Maybe the flashing with SIM in it caused it. Maybe you could contact the dev who came up with the unlock method and ask him to look into ICS compatibility.
I remember a similar thing happening with a Captivate unlock code not working after flashing FROYO before it's official release.
I found this method and the file link is working. I am going to find my old at&t SIM and see if this works.

Nandroid backup.
Flash an RUU & see if that fixes it. (Make sure you flash a GingerBread RUU)
If it works, then flash 3.32 unlocked fw, flash recovery & restore & see if it works.
Otherwise, go to HTC.
