did you have an unlocked boot loader? if so you will have to relock and try again and make sure you also have the stock recovery
i've just have my device s-on and installed RUU ROM and downgrade the boot, I will try updating the system again.
a side question : does this mean I can not have my device s-on if i update it? and i can not root it?
hold on ... are you s-on or s-off right now?
i was on s-off when i updated the device.
now i switched to s-on and downloading the update again.
i have a question! when i was rooted I received and OTA for updating to gingerbread 2.3.5 and htc sense 3.0 but since i was rooted i couldn't install them. now that I am unrooted again when i check for the update, it says that there is no update for your phone and I am still on gingerbread 2.3.3 and htc sense 2.1. what should I do?!

Im qurently testing different ROM's and at the moment im using the stock Gingerbread ROM (2.12.405.7) and the phone is S-OFF and Rooted.
But when i made a check for software update from "Settings -> About phone" there was a update availebel with the version 2.30.405.1.
Does installing this update change S-OFF to S-ON or change anything to the ROOT of my phone?
I havn't been able to find anythng about this update, so does anybody have any info about it?
Sorry...
Just did a search in the Dev forum and found this thread.

With previous HTC models, trying to install an OTA update with a custom recovery installed will fail. You would need to flash the 2.12 recovery image in order to install the OTA, which will wipe out your custom recovery and unroot your phone.
If you achieved S-OFF by using AlphaRevX, then the OTA update could also wipe out your S-OFF HBoot.

Well, it makes sens, but i just wanted to be sure.
I havn't heard about this OTA update before so i was a little surprised it was there.

The RUU was posted this weekend so I downloaded, but the link appears to be broken now. I was trying to decide if this was an 'official' update or a 'leaked' test ROM, but since you got an OTA notification for it, then this must be an official RUU.
The ROM is still Android 2.3.3 with Sense 2.1 (I think people were hoping for 2.3.4 and Sense 3.0) and has the same HBOOT version 1.13 as 2.12 does. There have been some posts about people applying this RUU and then attempting to run AlphaRevX again to gain S-OFF, but it appears that no one has been able to regain S-OFF after running the RUU.
No way to root this RUU (confirmed bu alpharevx devs).
Same HBOOT but the "hole" is closed.
What about the XTC clips, i hope it still can S-OFF.
I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me in my quest to install the OTA update for the Incredible S to 2.3.5, sense 3.0.
I have previously rooted, back in the Summer of this year so think it would have been Alpha or Revoked. Have tried a couple of things to restore S-On in order to run the stock update.
I have tried several methods to flash a new HBOOT, including flashing the OTA from Sense and the bootloader, and have tried to flash a new PG32IMG as well.
Most recently I have extracted a Rom.zip from a working Incredible S/Vivo RUU, and tried to put on the Hboot from this after running the Vivo Downgrade.img - for both of these I keep getting "Can not roll back hboot version" on the bootloader screen after pushing to the device with FASTBOOT.
Since installing the PG32IMG.zip I tried, I have changed to Vivo PVT SHP S-OFF RL on the bootloader. The other details are:
HBOOT - 700.1000
RADIO - 3805.04.03.22_M
eMMC - boot
Other than having S-Off and being rooted, I am running Stock 2.3.3 with Sense 2.1
Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I'm going wrong, or what Hboot I can flash to overcome this please!
Is your Inc s locked to a network or did you get it sim free, that could be a problem you might be having. If you went from a custom rom to stock rom did you use the correct ruu to go to rom which is right for your country.
The phone itself is sim free. I used an RUU that was as similar to the OTA update naming as possible:
RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.30.405.1_Radio_20.2808.30.085AU_3805.06.03.03_M_release_199308_signed

Since you are S-Off using Revolutionary, the Revolutionary HBOOT is preventing you from overwriting it so you won't lose S-Off. If you truly want to return to a stock ROM then you need to follow this procedure:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15732727&postcount=14
I've followed the method on there, but not convinced I have the full SDK suite installed, so might be worth me retrying once I have.
Hi - im a bit of a newb at this so bear with me!
i recently unlocked my bootloader and installed a stock 4.3 JWR66Y.H1 gpe rom and TWRP.
i am now getting the OTA notification but when i try to update it boots in to twrp, flashes the update, reboots and then i end up with a weird green screen. i have restored a backup in twrp back to 4.3, and everytime i try and install the update it does the same thing.
the phone is s-on - i have tried to s-off using rumrunner but it doesnt seem to like the rom and wont work (im on hboot 1.54).
any help would be greatly appreciated in getting the update to flash properly.

Make sure you follow all the instructions for rumrunner. You can't flash any unsigned firmware on s-on. Try manually flashing the update. Download the update and flash in recovery.

so to clarify - the ota update is failing because the phone is s-on?
i have flashed the elemental kernel and will try rumrunner again later if thats the case.
4.4 rom

Having same issue, is there a ROM that can be loaded instead of going through ota update. I can't get s off to work no matter what I try
You MUST get S-OFF before you get 4.4 OTA, as if things go south, you are in big do-do. Read the last 5-6 pages and you will get an idea.
So do NOT install OTA until you have S-OFF and unlocked bootloader..
soff trouble

the .401 ota update was pulled from htc due to incopatibility with some wifi rooters and also some other bugs. The only way to get the update is the flash it manually from stock recovery, it is not avaible ''over the air'' atm.

Bell Canada HTC One, want to flash the stock recovery back so that i can get the Sense 6 update. Phone is rooted and unlocked with HTC dev but does not have S-off. been running into issues with hboot 1.56 in that regard and cant get S-off to work. Anyway. From what I gather the OTA update wont work without the stock recovery. How do I know which one to install
