i wiped everything from my phone by mistake and now i've no OS Installed and s-on. I don't even have a backup. I tried to search on net for solution about 8 hours but still not get the right one. please help. :crying:
is this possible to restore backup from someone's HTC ONE S phone's backup to mine?
how can i turn s-off if i don't have OS in my phone.
i can access bootloader/fastboot and recovery .
i can mount Storage with PC but the storage is totally empty.
i can't find the right ROM for my phone.
most of the stock rom links are expired, but maybe you will find. search for it
for now, check if your device is ville or villeC2, then put a costume rom in storage and flash it and its kernel
for s-off read the tutorial

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum, basically I bought my desire s a few weeks ago and managed to root it, then added a Rom. However I believe I need to put back a stock Rom as it needs returning owing to a faulty speaker where I can't hear it ring, the output is getting worse each day. So basically I need to know which Rom and how to do it. I have tried searching but come to a dead end, lots of help for the desire but not my desire s. Many thanks in advance.
I'm sure I saw a thread knocking about in this forum where someone described the process of returning the phone completely back to s-on stock state, but I can't seem to find it myself now either.
Iirc though, restoring back to a stock rom and kernel may be enough to override the hboot and make it s-on and without root. There's something somewhere about flashing a stock hboot I'm sure.
Sorry I can't be more help than that.

You need to look here

This will over ride your alpharev hboot with an Eng S off hboot flash it via bootloader or Android flasher 1.8
Once you have done this you can flash an official ruu which remove your s-off and root status

When I try this method, bootloader says bypassed?
Any ideas.
chill...............
Ok this is how I did it I download this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15493125&postcount=1
On my lap top I extracted the zip file
Then put your phone in fastboot making sure it says fastboot usb then run Android flasher 1.8 chose hboot and browse for the .img file you extracted from the zip file earlier if all goes well you will be eng s- off then you can reflash an ruu

Hello everybody
I have HTC Sensation with original(no custom rom) ICS 4.0.3 and Hboot 1.27 version, i want to delete stock programs, which i don't need. I tried with revolutionary.io to root but it says that Hboot version is incompatible. So what can i do now? Is there any solution?
By the way, root and S-off is the same thing?

no root and soff are different
check for soff at hboot
deleting stock programs are difficult but with titanium backup you can freeze the system apps at least afaik
So what i must do to be able to delete stock programs? S-off or root?
You need s-off to delete apps as you are editing /system. However you can flash a custom rom which will install without all the junk apps. You need to unlock with HTC.dev then root. Be aware this has limitations, you cannot flash firmwares or use advanced fastboot commands. S-off is superior.
If you decide the flash, I recommend sharpy strpt cm9 - 8 apps when flashed!

You can't use titanium backup because u r not rooted. You need change ur hbooot to 1.17 or 1.18 to get soff. U need to revert back to gingerbread get ur soff first them u can upgrade to ics and ur hboot.

Can someone help me to instal new more stable rom, or just give me useful link with explanation. And how to check that some phone is rooted. Thanks.

You are already rooted. All the custom roms are rooted also supersu is the app which manage the root privilages so you are rooted.also I guess you have complete unlocked bootloader and soff
Which are required for custom Rom installation.
(Verify these on bootloader you'll have revolutionary in pink and soff when you boot into bpootloader)
For stable Rom I reccomend ARHD
Here is the link for rom

Unfortunately you cant S-off your phone right now, only with HTCDev, but this will not give you a proper S-off. You will have to wait untill Juopunutbear is released, this will give you proper S-off and allow you to do everything with your phone.
1. Need to Unlock Bootloader at http://htcdev.com/
2. After the download is complete Unlock Bootloader Recoverymanager file on the new computer to run on the DC Recover
Note: The above must be on the phone setting -> application -> On the next Unkown Sources and Development -> USB Debugging pop up
After the download is complete Recoverymanager file to extract, open up the program, press start, select download recovery, select HTC Sensation, select CWM 5.0.2.0 (pyramid) and click download and flash
After the show flash inflate a screen that asks Yes, No, cancel. Make sure you select No, the phone will reboot into recovery. If you choose the other 2 will not install.
After running Recovery may be normal in nhe1 thats alright.
3. After installation is complete you use CWM file attached to root su: in recovery, select the file and select install from zip file Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip.
Is this method also valid for S-ON ?
Guys I made a s-off using ControlBear and it crashed!!! so now I can not turn on my phone. Only what can I do is Bootloader and recovery modes. what is the reason of it and is there any solution???
I have requested that a mod move your thread to the Sensation Q&A forum for better device specific assistance.
Did s-off work?
When you say you can get into recovery mode do you mean 4ext or clockworkmod? Or do you mean something else?
If you can get into 4ext or cwm download a new rom and flash it. You should boot right up.
If you can only get to bootloader you can probably update your firmware with a modded version that has a custom recovery included, then proceed to the previous step.
If you need to do the firmware thing you can find all you need in the firmware thread in the development forum.
But....s-off has to have worked in order flash new firmware.
If all else fails you can run an ruu to restore the phone completely to stock and start over.

Hey dude I also failed with JB method and still my sensation is S-ON. You can follow troubleshooting guide at http://unlimited.io/juopunutbear-public-beta-0-1/troubleshooting/
and it really saved my day. Anyways to flash a rom with s-on, simply instal 4EXT recovery and enable SMART-FLASH before installing any rom. It has worked for me

If you're comming back from a different base,
( cyanogenmod-> sense or the other way around- for example)
You may try to fully wipe your device, before restoring backup
and flashing boot.img
That is anyway what i do in case of troubles
Edit: Nowadays, custom roms- as they mature- are/may be using different bases...
very often even updates of that same rom differ so much,
that full wipe before update becomes our good habit,
and- in many cases- strongly advised practise
Try that all I have 3 HTC sensation , desire s and explorer and only desire make my day hard I find stock ruu try to flash tough fastboot system boot and recovery and than lock bootloader and factory reset or ruu setup and nothing I am so angry maybe I will only destroy this phone and walk away

Well, just calm down and start from skratch:
1.lock bootloader
2. Run RUU
A) check pc drivers
B) check if they ( phone and pc) see each other-when phone in fastboot mode
Running RUU is a procedure given to us for granted by manufacturer,
when all else fails- RUU must not, and ussualy does not....
If you- in th mean time- have upgraded bootloader- should find appropriate stock ruu
Belive me it's not my first time to use RUU and adb/fastboot commands but no help
I find only 3 ruu for Europe hboot is 2.00.0002 on this link if you have more pls give me link for other RUU
CID : HTC__032
I use RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.5_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_219480_signed

If you please, go to the help thread (you'll find it in Q&A)
Desire s HELP THREAD ask any question....
and ask about it there...
My b****y tab stopped pasting links- sorry,...
Anyway just go there and ask
Now the method of flashing is the same with all desire s phone. Not one of this device has another 'special' way of flashing.
There might be a small chance that u did the flash wrongly. I would suggest that u be specific(right down to the adb command) in the process when flashing the nandroid.
Any chance that u change the hboot since ur last nandroid?
If stock rom is all u wanted, we have many sense rom, even modded stock rom that has been clean(those require specific hboot though).
Now being being led to run a ruu. Are u s-off or unlock? if u are not sure check bootloader.
If you are unlock, check this out. Step 4 shows the the method of flash rom and boot.img from the fastboot.
I will try again I'm unlocked son 4ext classic recovery
