[Q] Default Ruu ROM for Singapore Incredible S Users? - HTC Incredible S

Hey guys I'm trying to S-on my phone and I'm facing some confusion as to which RUU to flash over. My location is in Singapore and my latest update by official is Android 2.3.3.
Which RUU should I download from http://www.filefactory.com/f/254b6504d382ba60/?
Appreciate if someone can answer me and solve my doubt. I need to S-on to send it for servicing as my InCs power button is kinda screw up, as in it off my screen and turn it back on again automatically when I press a single time.
I'm sure it's hardware problem as I also experience the same problem when trying to flash a trinity 2.5 rom over . my button just gets annoying and automatically selects sometimes

Creating a Gold Card should solve your problem...
I am from Singapore too... and previously I have been moving between 405 and 707 just for fun, and recently just downgraded from 707 (HBOOT 1.16) to 405 (HBOOT 1.13) to get root
good luck

Asian Incredible S S-OFF but I can't flash ROM (OTA/CWM) -> assert failed

Hey Guys,
i have quite a serious issue with my HTC Incredible S i bought in Thailand.
As it was S-On, I first went for a XTC-Clip. The mobile had hboot 1.13.***
As XTC Clip offered only hboot 1.09, i simply chose that one and my phone was S-OFF a few minutes later. Everything ok.
As a second step, i installed CWM 4.0.0.4 to make a snapshot of my current system.
Since the mobile is still running stock 2.2, i tried to do an OTA upgrade from HTC.
Much to my suprise this upgrade failed (wrong model id). I then downloaded a custom ROM from XDA (Virtuous Unity 1.27.0 Sense 3.0) and tried to flash it via CWM. The installer stopped then with a cryptic error message (pls. see enclosed picture).
I suspect XTC Clip changed/replaced parts of my hboot and thus the phone has a wrong ID which prevents me from installing any new ROM or upgrades.
So i did some research and thought, that Alpharev-X could solve the problem
I ran the tool (beta2) and everything went smooth. But the problem with the model ID still persists
I checked my hboot, which gives me the following details:
AlphaRev
VIVO PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-6.13.1002
RADIO-38.02.01.11_M
eMMC-boot
Does anyone of you has an idea how to "unlock" my phone so that i can flash the ROMs of this great community?
Thank you very much in advance for any help!
Best regards,
H.

Rest assured, your phone is unlocked and has security turned off so that you can flash custom ROMs. I can only assume that you must have a IncS model 710d. At some point during the IncS international releases, the internal model switched from "incs" to "vivo". The ROM you are trying to install is looking for "incs", not "vivo". I would suggest you try another one of the custom ROMs and see if they will install.

ok, i will give it a try. but does this also explain why i cannot install the official 2.3.3 over the air upgrade of HTC? my phone tells me that the upgrade is available but fails to install the downloaded package

No, the OTA update is failing because you have ClockworkMod recovery installed. OTA updates require that the original HTC recovery be in place.
hello,
i could finally install the MIU ROM for the IncS and from there successfully upgrade to the Virtuous ROM v1.29.
Again many thanks for your help!

Bricked again?

So got the Incredible S in the beginning of July and was very happy with it, beat the hell out of my old HD2 who got bricked Desided not to root this one cause it was already android and i didnt want to break the warranty. But then the 2.3.3 update came and i didnt recieve text and calls was dismissed. (it is an own thread about this issue on the forums) so i desided to try a rom from XDA to see if this could help solve the issue. It did not but i rooted the phone (S-off right?) and used it with GSM only.. today i talked with HTC support and got a hold of the RUU_Vivo_HTC_WWE_1.36.405.1_Radio_Radio_20.23.30.0 802U_38.02.01.11_M_release_172670_signed.. the cusomter support guy uploaded it and i installed it with the USB cable.. the installer said everything went fine.. the phone reebots.. boots to the HTC logo screen and turns off again.. and keeps on going in the same cycle..
I can get into bootloader, but when i press "power" to choose recovery it goes straight to the white htc screen again and reebots.. what to do now? Is this one dead also?
Tried rename RUU to PG32IMG and put it on the memory card.. still no luck it says "Bootloader - Bypasses"
"TP - Bypassed"
"TP - Bypassed"
Why? And still no luck tried with two signed RUU's now.. The bootloader says
Vivo PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT 6.13.1002
At least i want all the Revolutionary stuff gone.. Any idea? Im out of ideas right now.. Oh geez, it booted the 2.1.3 RUU.. nice.
But why would not the other room work? This is the one i have to get workin.. Any ideas?
Does the RUU got a radio in it? Please share this RUU cause I believe this is not avaible anywhere. I would give it a try then and report if I have issues.

Yes I think it can be a radio conflict too, perhaps you downgraded it.
Here you go Please give a report if it work on your device
I also want to gain S-ON on my Incredible, used AlphaRevX Beta to get the S-OFF but i need it to be S-ON again, and i cant really fint the information on how to do it. These forums are amazing but very hard to navigate true, and find the information you are looking for.
Was thinking... You said you are S-OFF and then installed the 1.36 RUU. Possibly this RUU or ROM needs an older bootloader. Cause the bootloader cannot be overwritten (I assume you used Alpharev), the installation is aborted.
The newer RUU accepts the current bootloader and therefore is being installed.
I think, when you first downgrade your Hboot to the one that can be overwritten, the RUU should work and you can enjoy Froyo again!
So did it work ?

Going back to stock after GE conversion

So today I turned on my phone and I have noticed that there is about an inch in depth line across the screen which isn't picking up touches anymore, so I rung HTC and it's going in for an in warranty repair on Monday. Of course, I need to convert it completely back to stock, but the only problem is I converted it to a Google Edition, changing the CID and, more importantly, the MID. I followed this thread when doing it originally, but I wanted to know if anyone knows if I can flash the same ENG HBOOT onto my GE phone and not have it brick on me? Then I can change my MID and CID back and flash the EU RUU for my phone and send it in on Monday with no issues...hopefully.
Or is there an easier way? Will they check the MID? I changed it to PN0712000 from PN0710000 and CID to GOOGL001 from HTC__001. If I just changed the CID and left the MID, would it matter? Would I still get OTA's on the stock Sense ROM on that MID?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: So of course I've tried flashing an RUU in the meantime, but I can't. I've tried 2 of those .exe ones but they both fail, I'm assuming because of my changed model ID. I can't find an unencrypted one either that I can change the headers of so I can flash it...ugh. This is becoming a massive pain the bumholey.
RUU's fail because of MID? I thought if you have s-off any RUU would work? I need to know this too cause I might have to RUU and send in for warranty.
I don't know. But I've gone back to complete stock now, great! Of course, there's another problem FFS.
WiFi now doesn't work at all, it just says error. Fabulous. This only happened once it did a system update to the 1.29 update. Now it's asking me to update to 2.24, but I don't have enough data left on my usage to download it to see if it'll fix it, so now I don't know what to do. I've tried Googling this issue, and it appears as though some people might have had it, but I can't find a solution or anything. HALP!
EDIT: I reflashed the RUU and the WiFi is working again. I'm going to try the update again and see if it causes WiFi to not work again, if so then...I don't know what I'll do. Flash OTA's through CWM and see if it fixes it...?
EDIT2: And this time the WiFi works fine. Something must have happened the first time...but all's working fine now. Hooray! Apart from the screen, which is why I'm sending it back to HTC...
May I ask You how did You manage to go back to stock ROM? I'm on stock 4.3 GE Now. I've got S-OFF and bootloader locked. When I go to the fastboot mode and start the RUU (exe file) goes fine, but half way through (when It's moving the ROM to the internal memory) error shows up saying there are some (no specific details) problems that I can fix, but when I do all 4 fixing steps it doesn't help.
I've taken the stock Sense RUU from here
http://www.androidruu.com/index.php?developer=M7
M7/RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_Radio_4A.13.3231.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed.exe
I'd love to know how you accomplished this, I've got the same issue going on so I need to revert back to stock using an RUU, but it keeps failing.
can you give us the breakdown of how you did it?

[Q] problem with getting calls & cell internet

Hello ,
For the last 2 months i have a problem receiving calls and going on line on the cell internet (wifi ok) .
At first i thought its because i changed carriers but going back to the old carrier and trying a new one didn't solve the problem ,
Then i thought its because i updated to the ARHD 71.1 rom , but going back to stock didn't solve the problem either .
So now I'm stuck , when i try to call sometimes it takes up to 1 minute until the phone is actually calling , my family and friends says that allot of the times they cant call me its like the phone is closed , even if i have full signal .
I don't know maybe i did something to my Radio or Firmware , i tried reading many guides and doing so much updates to the firmware and nothing helps .
If some one has any idea what should i do , or had this problem and solved it please help .
my htc one m7 is international bought in Germany Unlocked (i don't live in germany it was on vacation)
i don't care if i have to wipe everything and going back to stock , or stay with the ARHD 71.1 , i just want to solve this .
i added 2 attachments with the details of my phone
thanks

your OS version is missing from your pics
you need to find the correct RUU for your phone
look here
http://www.androidruu.com/index.php?developer=M7
and here http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads
look for a 4.xx.xxx.x RUU that matches your CID - HTC__102
This one may work
http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo...10.38r.1157.04L_release_353069_signed_2-1.exe

Thanks for the reply, I noticed that it's missing for a while now, after I tried to update firmware. Maybe it's related to the problem, but after I find the correct ruu, what should I do with it? I mean how to install it and what dose it do?
