[Q] [Help] Unrooting HTC Incredible s to stock 2.3.5

Unrooting HTC Incredible s to stock 2.3.5 with sence 3,0
Hi I have been reading this forums and would like to have someone confirm that this is the right way to do it. Reason to I bought a rooted phone and well want stock that takes upgrades and all..
1. you have to look for the original RUU of your phone (you can find it on this site). then follow this thread to find the rom.zip file (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=790022), where you can find several files. you need the android-info.txt and the hboot_xxx.img files.
RUU_VIVO_SENSE30_S_HTC_WWE_3.08.405.3_Radio_20.4802.30.0822U_3822.10.08.28_M_release_227170_signed
WWE means WWEworldwide eng and should have Swedish as well ( Swedish here).
WOULD IT BE ENOUGH TO JUST FLASH THIS AND THEN ALL WILL BE STOCK?!
2.
open the hboot.img file with a text editor; in the first line you can find many strange symbols, and after that there will be a string of numbers (that is the hboot version).
you have to know what version of hboot have you currently on your phone (if you used the revolutionary tool, it will be probably 6.13.1002) and simply change the hboot.img string so that the release number is higher (than the modded hboot; i.e. you can write 7.09.0000).
my phone is rooted with revolutionary and have 6.13.1002.
but where do I find this file And img, can I use vivo_downgrade.img ?
3.
after that you have to make a zip file with the android-info.txt and the hboot_xxx.img file you have just modified, and if you have an incredible s, call it "pg32img.zip".
4.
if you have another device, simply you can turn on your phone in the bootloader mode, and if there's a memory card the device will look for a file, which name appears (it's the code you need).
then put that pg32img.zip file on the root of your sd card, reboot in bootloader mode (volume down+power) and follow the instructions to do the upgrade. after that, if you restart in bootloader, you'll see that the hboot version will be 7.09.0000 (the same you wrote) and will be s-on.
5.
now, search and download the latest version of "superoneclick" (an application that should root and unroot your phone), and start it. link your phone to the pc and start the unroot process.
SuperOneClickv1.8-ShortFuse would this be good for all rooted phones ?
6.
when it is done, simply leave your phone linked to the pc and start the RUU.exe file you downloaded. start the update process and if you have done everything good, at the end you'll have your phone with the stock hboot and the s-on.
Is there a way to test this or check before because after im not sure u can go back in bootloader mode ?
It would be nice if someone could confirm that this is the right way to do it!
I Quoted the lines from jauffre
Or is this a better way?
This procedure is tested only AplhaRevX.
1. Install RUU ROM from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1033922
2. Downgrade HBOOT
2a. download this file: http://alpharev.nl/vivo_downgrade.img
2aa. Connect your phone to the USB
2b.Turn your phone into FastBoot not to HBOOT!!! (VOL DOWN + POWER Button)
2c. Install over fastboot: cmd: "fastboot flash hboot vivo_downgrade.img" (you must install sdk tools)
2d. still fastboot cmd: fastboot reboot-bootloader
3. Start Installation RUU ROM, but DON´T INSTALL !!!!
3a. go tu C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temp and at last folder find rom.zip
3b. open it, and copy tu folder sdk hboot and instal the same as step 2c.
All help is appreciated

Since you are flashing a sense 3 rom ruu it shouldn't be a problem but check this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16684717&postcount=38

Thanks for a fast reply.
i been looking in to this and i say it wont work to flash the rom 2.3.5w 3,0 .
hboot is 2.0.0000 and hboot in the phone 6.13.1002.
so i must downgrade it before installing stock rom or change it to 7.13.1002
right ?
first downgrade hboot and then install rom or edit hboot in rom and then downgrade it ?
some body have an oppinion ?

[Q] HTC Incredible S stuck in limbo :(

Well here's the story, someone gave me their phone to root (i'm the official rooter in my city ) and i accidently skipped over a major step, infact a few of them.
1: I unlocked the phone and flashed clockwork touch recovery
2: Did not backup the original non rooted rom
3: Did not S-off the phone
4: Flashed Android Revolution HD
Now No rom is working, IT gets stuck on the white HTC logo. At least tried 2-3 of them. Cyanogen and ARHD to start with. Tried a few RUU but those aren't going through too. Tried extracting rom.zip from the RUU and flashing manually but they dont work.
Attached is an image with the details of the Firmware on the phone and radio atm
I checked the HTC CID and it's 044 ... Any sort of help would be appreciated.

I feel bad for your city where did you get cwm touch recovery?
Have you flashed the boot.img in fastboot?

If flashing the boot doesn't work. Couldn't you just attempt to s-off through fast boot and flash the RUU etc?
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium

I feel sorry for them too, now that i screwed up, for the first time though
Well my hboot version is 2.01 and it wasn't supported in revolutionary.io 's s-off method. Didnt think it would work any other way. I dont know how to downgrade it to 1.13.
I got my clockwork recovery from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14693680 this post. If only i can find the original rom/RUU which i can flash and just reset it to the original factory rom. :| i tried 3-4 of the RUU in the filefactory folder that's listed in the incredible s shipped rom section but none of them work.
Can i change the CID in teh android_info text file in the rom.zip of the RUU ? would that work ? apparently the zip is claimed to be corrupt when i try adding the same file back.

I'll ask again, have you flashed the boot.img in fastboot? The link you provided has no touch recovery in the OP or am I required to read all 29 pages?
If you're using cwm from the OP, you should update. Here's the newest version I know of http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
To your question about flashing an ruu with a modified android_info on an s-on device: no.
You can find what ruu you need by entering the command
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main
the number returned corresponds to the ruu that you should be looking for.
As you are an experienced rooter you probably already know to wipe cache and usually data when you flash a new Rom.
@vizzy how would you gain s-off in fastboot mode?

HTC Incredible S/Vivo cwm-4.0.1.4-vivo.img
md5 : a556a81054cd8cfe623eed5f4b8e518b
this is hte file i posted from the link i shared before. Which exact boot.img are you talking about ?? Also most of my rootings were done with either unrevoked or alpharev which required minimal tweaking . I'm no pro, just try to give it my best
Also the version that the fasboot command gave me was 3.11.707.1. (thanks for that tip, i'll remember it). Going to search for it
Also how can i S-off in hboot or fasboot atm ??

Because the phone is s-on, the way you need to flash a custom rom is as follows:
Install zip from sdcard in cwm, then extract the boot.img file from the zip file and flash it in fastboot I.e
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
these steps are included in the newbs guide sticky

THANKS !!!

hi, thanks for replying.
can you please give me a step by step instruction on the procedure of flashing back to ics hboot?
and where can i download the ics hboot?
does it involves adb push it into sdcard and use cwm to install it? if yes, i can only 'adb push' to sdcard but can never see it in cwm because i can't mount sdcard
when i upgraded ota, my hboot shows:

i forgot to mention that all data has been wiped from my sxl, so i can't change the setting like you suggested.
thanks

Download an ICS RUU (anyone will do) extract the rom.zip from the RUU and upack it. In the extracted folder you will see the hboot file, change the extention of the file to .img, then copy it to the same folder as fastboot.exe. open a command promp and tap in "fastboot flash hboot xxxxx.img (xxxxx = whatever the file is called)

hi androhero, my questions:
1. how to detect an ics ruu?
2. i currently have BinDroid_RUNMED2.5_V1.6_FINAL, BinDroid Stock ASIAN 1 14 709 2 2 3 5 SXL and BB_P34 (from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1618648.html) but unable to find the file rom.zip you mentioned, where is it located in these ruu?
thanks

Look here

well, i am giving up trying to recover my sxl.
i have done extracting and flashing hboot but it gave me:
failed <remote: signature verify fail>
also i have downloaded several ruu and try installing but most gave an error of wrong version, error 131, error 155 or fails after sending signature stage.
btw, i can see most of the ruu posted here are mostly in file hosting website that are no longer accessible. in the process of looking for a cure for my sxl, i found 2 website that has lots of roms for download but unable to post here due to spam prevention. if anyone wants it, pls msg me.
thank you all for trying to help.
-----------------------------------------update 13june2012--------------------------------
i have finally managed to repair my htc myself but with lots of trial and error.
first off, i wish to thank all from unlimited.io :good::good::good: for their great s-off hboot that enable any ruu to be installed.
here's what i did before i soft bricked it:
unlocked bootloader via htcdev, flashed to fardjadb's hboot, applied zergrush's superuser, finally played with vm heap tool..... soft bricked.
sent to 3 party repairer after my above post, it came back with an xl_cn... rom that has some minor problem with google play (fixed) and re-bricked when i fooled around with faceniff that had my htc running slow and some icons in brown color square.
sent to malaysia sole distributor, sis (m) s/b, that told me i have to change my motherboard as i have damaged it with custom rom. (please do not follow this advise)
all these while i encountered the main problem with 'unable to mount sdcard' (i can see a lot of post here asking how to solve it). i found out that flashing the correct recovery file will have your data, cache,system folder seen in recovery mode but still no sdcard. i flashed the recovery for 1.28.
took back my htc and below is how i managed to make my htc boot up again:
1. flashed unlimited.io's protected hboot for 1.25 following androidhero's advise
3) Boot into fastboot, connect device to PC and flash recovery image.
"fastboot flash recovery recovery_for_1.28.img"
4) Reboot into recovery, connect device to PC again, Fire up adb and check device is connected. "adb devices"
5) Download unlimited.io "hboot_7230ddr2_Runnymede_6.25.4444.nb0" and copy it to the same folder as adb.exe
6) In adb command prompt type in "adb push hboot_7230ddr2_Runnymede_6.25.4444.nb0 /tmp" then "adb shell" and finally "dd if=/tmp/hboot_7230ddr2_Runnymede_6.25.4444.nb0 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18"

2. run the ics ruu (i did this while in fastboot unlocked mode and i think any ruu will work this time without errors like 140, 155, etc.) RUU_RUNNYMEDE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_2.31.401.2_Radio_20.70.30.0832U_3831.16.00.16_M_release_258303_signed and it starts to run till finished.
i am a happy man! :victory:

[Q] i think that im ****ed

ok i have a problem, my htc incredible s was rooted but i wanted to unroot so i downloaded a RUU and installed it, everything worked fine but when he rebooted my phone stuck on the HTC logo doing nothing, so i pressed volume down and power and this is wat my phone says:

If i go into recovery he gives a red triangle with ( ! ) in it.
I realy hope that you guys can help me, because i want to go back to stock or just install a rom so i can use my phone again.

You're not f***ed, dude You can get your recovery back by flashing a new one trough a PG32IMG.zip. To unroot your phone properly it's not enough to just flash a RUU. I once found a great guide on the internet but it's in German. But it worked for me, so it's definitely possible

plz tell me how , because i already downloaded a pg321img from somewhere but that failed, and i`m now downloaden PG32IMG_VIVO_ICS_35_S_HTCCN_CHS_4.08.1400.2_Radio_20.72.30.0833U_3831.17.00.24_M_release_264218_signed.zip is this the good one?

The red triangle with the exclamation mark is the 'fail' indication in stock recovery, it seems that your ruu has written the recovery but has not written hBoot which is why your hBoot reads 6.xx (revolutionary). My advice is to get a goldcard micro sd card and re flash the ruu using a pc (provided that your inc s can go to hBoot USB). Then you will be unrooted to stock.
Edit.
Downgrade from pc using goldcard and USB mode. Use a gingerbread ROM, preferably from your region, or English WWE and not the ICS Chinese ruu, unless you're from China.

how do i do that if i cant get in my phone?

Run the ruu.exe file from pc. Don't use pg132.IMG method.

ok dude, i realy dont know how to make a goldcard or so ever, i tried to do it with some tutorials but that failed.

How'd you get s-off using revolutionary? Didn't you make a goldcard for it? There's an excellent tutorial in the sticky section on how to make a goldcard. If I remember right, it takes just the 15 min including the time it takes for the revskills site to email you the IMG file. Best of luck.

OK, here is what you need to do:
1. Boot the phone into FASTBOOT USB mode and then flash ClockworkMod recovery image using the command:
fastboot flash recovery [path to recovery.img]
That will restore ClockworkMod.
From there you can either restore a previous nandroid backup you made or flash a new custom ROM.
Here is the link for ClockworkMod recovery image:

Nope let it remain on your PC.
The command should be fastboot flash recovery C:\Downloads\recovery.img

First thing to try is to do a full system wipe and reflash CM7.

in serious need of help for the phone!!!!

Hi guys,
I'm new to the android world. I was playing around with my mum's HTC(was on ICS) and tried to root it, but im not sure if its rooted now, but i have ****ed the phone up hardcore
The problem is phone stuck on HTC Logo and won't boot. It's possible to get it in bootloader and it looks like this: I have unlocked it HTCdev.com
*UNLOCKED*
S-ON
HBoot: 1.28.0004
RADIO-3831.15.00.20_M
eMMC-boot
I dont get a connection to the PC, but after first time plug-in it installed the drivers.
So now my question is how can I get an new Ruu on this phone. Would it be fixed by me installing the ICS RUU.exe file?
I can't seem to find it i do have the code from the HTCdev, but i do not have ANY clue what to do..... Please help me out

To get the correct drivers that are needed for the phone you either should install htc sync then uninistall it again or you should go download my tool, it has an installer for drivers for windows, just not windows 8.
About the code from htcdev, that part you have used correctly. That is a bin file you used to get bootloader *UNLOCKED* and since its saying unlocked you should be good to go.
After unlocking the bootloader you can go to bootloader and flash a custom recovery. To do that you can simple install my runnymede aio tool and press either twrp or cwm recovery button. It will pop up with a box that says "Press Ok when in bootloader" and since you are already in bootloader you can just skip that part and press ok.
after it has flashed recovery it will try to boot to the system just go to bootloader again
When you are in bootloader you can go into recovery.
After that you can flash any custom rom but if you want to stay on a custom rom i will recommed you to flash to specific roms first, found in the "guide" in my Runnymede AIO Tool. And then after that flash any rom for our phone. I know it sounds a little stupid and is is also not cofirmed giving any diffrence but it looks like the htc sensation xl is much more hard to brick if these two roms have been flashed.
If you just want to go back to stock , then flash a custom rom and boot it up.
Then use the function in my tool from fully booted to s-off just remeber to use the one that says your hboot version.
A note here: Hboot version 1.25 = 6.25 and 1.28 = 6.28
after that is done boot the phone up normally and run a ruu.exe file and you will end up in a stock locked rom after that.

Thanks Anders3408 i have followed your instructions and have downloaded your tool(which works like wonders).
Now i am facing another problem. My current rom is a custom one (1.56.401.2), but it tells me there are no hard disk spaces and i keep getting Contacts Storage stopped message (even after i press send report to HTC or even if i declined it....)

I have a similar problem....i'm S-ON UNLOACKED....hboot 1.28.0006 ....i can only have fastboot connection...i even tryed an RUU (RUU_RUNNYMEDE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_2.31.401.2_Radio_20.70.30.0832U_3831.16.00.16_M_release_258303_signed) but still bootloop! :/ I'm driving crazy!!!
ps: tried to flash a custom recovery but doesn't work!!! (during flash i was on s-on because i couldn't flash hboot s-off )...The phone has no root.

It you have EUROPE CID then flash this
http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.ph...odel=Runnymede
If link doesnt work then here the same
http://hotfile.com/dl/145704399/e91...822.10.10.12_M_release_222101_signed.exe.html
Install that Europe Version of GingerBread.
When finish let it boot and when setup is finish update via OTA to ICS..
If this still doesn´t work then S-off with this. ----->
http://unlimited.io/runnymede.htm
You will change your hboot version. Use that 4445 version in download. Its unsecure hboot.
Follow the ADB steps carefully and when done reboot into bootloader again. Flash custom recovery like TWRP
Wipe cache,dalvik,system
Then reboot into bootloader again
FastbootADB and run the RUU from PC

No need to do everything by yourself. My tool uses the same files and procedure to make the phone s-off. Just boot it up and enable debugging in settings then press the s-off button that fits hour hboot
