i have no experience in the matter, but from what i've learned from reading other posts in the forum over the last few weeks...
if you used revolutionary to s-off, you can't update to the official ruu without reverting back to s-on. there are numerous guides in the forum for that so just do a search.
if you upgrade to the official ruu, however, your bootloader will be upgraded to 2.0 as well (someone reported this after upgrading to the official ruu) and i don't know if you will be able to downgrade. so, if you are looking to upgrade, please know that there's a possibility that you won't be able to s-off your phone again (at least until someone figures out a way to downgrade from 2.0 bootloader).
ps just a friendly advice, try not to ask the same question in multiple threads just be patient and someone will answer your question (assuming that there's an answer available).

Why don't you just flash ARHD? Its the same OTA 2.3.5 Sense 3.0 plus rooted and you won't loose s-off. Check development area for ARHD Rom. Just taking my advice you gonna be fine.

I agree. if you want to keep your phone s-off, then arhd is a better option.

you need to flash hboot to original.
First, go to fastboot and install shipped rom version 2.3.3
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033922
and than go to first process to flash hboot. After that you can update your software to 2.3.5.
Hi guys. Im really having a problem with my phone now. I can't update my phone or do a hard reset as I will be directly brought to the fastboot menu with a security warning on the top. When i go back to the hboot menu and try to do recovery or factory reset, the same thing happens.
I really want to know what is going on and how do I solve this problem..

Don't be angry... If you entered recovery and got security warning, try to flash the recovery again.

Hey, thanks for the advice. but what recovery should I flash again ?
Try the Clockworkmod first. If it is bootable, flash a rom and install 4EXTrecovery via 4EXT Updater.

Alright guys. Im so sorry. I've actually managed to unlock the bootloader again, and flashed CWM. As gingerbread 2.3.5 was just pushed out to my country several days ago. I've brought my phone to the HTC service centre today. and they are also unable to run the RUU update. So they took in my phone for servicing and they will update my phone when the repair is done. Thanks for your help guys.. still needs to be sent in though.. 4th time im sending this phone in already...
What's version of ROM? Root? S-off?
Need more details...

If you were as quick replying to your thread as you were in taking the phone to HTC we could have got you fixed up. You needed stock recovery flashed, I believe. Hope HTC don't charge you for this "repair".

What are you trying to do?
And what are you doing with the source?
Ruu or source code?
Kernel source code is for devs to compile their own kernel and use things from it, not for regular users like us

What is your Hboot version too?
If you want to root, now would probably be a good time if you Hboot is compatible with revolutionary
Unless you can find a ruu or ota that is compatible, which I don't know
If you don't want to root you need to find an ruu or ota that works with your phone (I have no experience in doing this)
Another thing you could do is make a goldcard and flash any ruu (I did this)

You should probably start by installing CID Getter from the market to determine what region your phone is made for. After that, it will be easier to determine which RUU you need to get you up and running. Post your CID here and maybe we can find the correct RUU for you.

i already hav an OTA file for the indian version but from one of the threads but dint know hw to use the file to update my phone....
The problem with OTA files is that they are incremental and are only meant for going from specific versions of software so the fact that you are on such on old version, it is highly unlikely that any OTAs are available, hence you need to flash a full RUU of either the most up to date or at least a much newer release.
As an example, I flashed the Virgin AU RUU that's available on here but it's too old to receive OTA updates. I then used a backup of the software that was on my phone when I bought it and that received an update within seconds of turning on.
So you will need to determine what your CID is and then you will be able to get a newer RUU that will allow you to start receiving OTA updates.

Once again, please put the phone in FASTBOOT USB mode and then run the command:
fastboot getvar all
and post the results. This will give us all of the information to help guide you in the right direction.
The problem with an OTA is that it is upgrades you from one specific version to another, so if you don't have the right version to start with, an OTA will not help you.
Hi All,
I need help for the following issue,
today i got notified by my incredible S that a software update is available,
I accepted and downloads starts, finished, choose install and the system checked the downloaded package, then phone rebooted to start the installation, then a blue android logo appear on the screen along with "!" inside a triangle, and phone was stuck on this for more then an hour before i took out the battery and restarted it and it is now back normal but on 2.3.5
anyone faced this matter and found a solution???
the phone is rooted, unlocked bootloader via HTCDEV website, and all the crappy HTC application uninstalled including htc sense and everything.
any help will be very appreciated,
thanks.
Problem solved:
-relock the bootloader:fastboot oem lock
-create a gold card: http://androidforums.com/desire-s-all-things-root/500543-guide-how-create-goldcard.html

OK, so if you have modded the stock ROM by removing HTC applications and Sense, then that is why the OTA update failed.
To accept and install the OTA you must have all the stock components in place, HBOOT, recovery and all the apps.
Download the stock ice ruu exe from the thread listing in the dev section.
Make a goldcard and then install.
Remember this method I think will work with a compleatly stock phone meaning s-on locked bootloader, no root and no custom recovery. Do this at your own risk. I have a inc s with cid 38, It worked for me.

As the previous poster suggested, just relock the bootloader and then run the official ICS RUU using a goldcard.
Then since you have unlocked your bootloader before, you can simply use the same unlock_code.bin to unlock the ICS bootloader and then you can add a custom recovery and root the system.

The downgrade script you are using will create a goldcard for you. Did you use that method? If so, then what size was your SD card? Do you have another SD card that you could try. It needs to be at least 2GB and 8GB seems to work the best.
