I'm in the same situation, trying to figure out if I can install it on my Bell IS (I'm unlocked on AT&T). Anybody tried it yet?
Can we install this OTA ROM on indian IS s-on?
How can I install this one?
I've got a S-ON Incredible S, tried to rename to PG32IMG.zip and put it at the root of my sd card but no luck.
So I've extracted firmware.zip inside the file and renamed to PG32IMG.zip. Incredible S upgraded my hboot and radio but no the os version and now I can't get my wifi working anymore (got error as soon as I turn on wifi).
If I were you, I would use the official RUU instead.

It will wipe your phone, but I think you will not be stuck in between 2 versions.
Just my 2 cents though
<EDIT>
That is, if you have a european IS, by the way.
</EDIT>
I'm trying right now, but if I launch the updater from booted os it gives me error 155 which readme says is an incorrect rom image for my phone.
If I try to upgrade from the HBOOT, the updater says I've got not enough battery (30% min) but my battery is full of charge.
Is your phone branded? I think this RUU is for unbranded phones only.. but I am not sure.
I'm trying with the goldcard method, it's flashing at the moment, I'll post my results as soon as it's finished
As a quick FYI, I spent a lot of time yesterday trying to get the stock RUU update to flash my HTC Raider. I played around with a custom ROM and wasn't too happy with it, but stupidly I didn't backup my stock rom with CWM... Lesson learned!
Anyways, if you are trying to go back to stock and are hitting Error 155 during the RUU Update, try re-locking the bootload with "fastboot eom lock". I tried this today and the stock firmware flashed on first try and I'm back to the good old Bell bloat!
Hope this helps anyone!
Hi I was trying to make a rom and ended up in a bootloop, so i made a mistake and flashed the boot.img from the android sdk folder to my raider and now I can't get into hboot, but with adb can get into cwm. i did have a backup and can restore the backup.
now when the restore is complete i try to restart and the phone hangs at the htc logo, then the screen turns black. phone never boots.
any ideas on what might fix this?
Thanks

Can you get back into HBOOT now that you did the restore?
I'm by far no expert but I'm curious if you can get back to HBOOT if you can put it into fastboot, re-lock the bootloader (fastboot oem lock) and then use the RUU to restore back to stock. That should fix the boot image and I you then can start the process over again by unlocking and playing.
That's what I did and I'm back to a non-bricked phone. You can get the Holiday (aka Raider) RUUs by searching these forums. Just download the one for your carrier.
Good luck

Many thanks once again.
Thank you so much!
I cannot find an answer to my problem as hard as i look. today, i decided to root my phone (HTC vivid). I rooted it successfully, i went to the Superuser and it said it needed to be updated and to flash a kernel or something like that. (i was using this program http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498003) I went to the program that i meantioned above and i clicked flash stock vivid kernel, thinking that this was the kernel i had to update or flash or whatever then my phone reboots and its all like Hurr duur im stuck on the HTC screen watcha gonna do about it. I tried many things:
One thing i tried was to do the .zip thingy, with the boot loader relocked, and it wont boot to anything else but the boot loader
i tried also to do the ruu thing, but it kept giving me errors about my phone model or something like that
Can someone please tell me what i did wrong and how to fix it?
i would really appreciate it big time!
Edit: i have an micro sd, if that info helps
I would try to restore it back to stock.
Relock to bootloader if it isn't still locked.
Then run the stock ruu for your phone from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1338919
I had my vivid stuck on the HTC screen and this worked for mine.
Also, If you rooted to ICS you are most likely stuck until the official RUU from HTC is out...

You need to install HTC sync or the htcdrivers before running the ruu otherwise it won't see your phone and will just error out.

1. You obviously didn't know what you were doing. Lessons for next time.
2. If the .zip thingy made the bootloader update and it seems like it managed to flash everything alright, then you need to make sure the zip isn't on any storage connected to the phone, then go from bootloader to fastboot, unlock the bootloader using the HTCDev bootloader unlock procedure (I hope you kept your unlock_code.bin!), then fastboot flash a recovery.img, then boot to recovery from the bootloader, and flash an ICS ROM, then go back to fastboot and flash the boot.img to get the kernel flashed.
I'm guessing that you may have flashed the ICS bootloaders, but you aren't specific enough. What ruu did you try to run, exactly what zip did you try to install?
You didn't do anything wrong, you just didn't complete the procedure.

Well I hope that was a given. BUt I guess I should have listed it. Good point!
If you have an AT&T Vivid, then you should be okay, run the latest ICS RUU and hope for the best. If not, you'll have to do it the old fashioned way through lots of fastboot commands.
thank you everyone!

Before you guys jump on me, I would like to apologize for just being dumb. Even though that is the truth, may I have some help?
I didn't read the guide on turning the S-Off on my Vivid, I thought all I had to do was run the hason s-off and it would automatically do everything for me. Yeah, I didn't even know about a wire trick (I've already admitted the obvious). My Vivid just boots to the JoupunutBear screen and reboots after about 3 minutes to the same screen. I guess I've bricked my device!:crying:
Is it possible for HTC to remotely restore my Vivid, or do I have to take it to an authorized dealer that repair phones? If so, how much am I looking at? I wished I had left my phone alone, but doing some of the crazy wild and exciting stuff for phones is so cool! I wish I had read that I needed to pin mod something, or else I would not have tried to do S-Off! I just got my phone a few days ago in a trade for my HTC Shift.
I guess this will be an expensive lesson and hopefully I'll read and not think every procedure for different phones are the same.
I miss my Vivid!:crying:

I thought as long as I had reovery image on my device, I had nothing to worry about. Boy was I wrong!
Any tips on which recovery I should use? Preferably with guide, my nerves are a bit tweaked right now.
OK, I just relocked...now what?
Downloaded AT&T stock ROM, downloaded AT&T PH39img. I guess now I'm suppose to place both files on SD card and use HBOOT?
Follow the guide in my signature titled "back to stock" (I think its step 6). Then if you want to re root or whatever follow the guide in my signature steps 1-4.

Following your guide now, I'll let you know how it goes.
I have to download the RUU and not use the AT&Tzip I've already have downloaded. Seems straight forward, I'll reply back, thanks!
Since I have some time before the RUU finishes downloading, I tried to reflash factory rom using the second method. When I reboot into recovery, it does load the PG file, but it doesn't give me an option to flash anything?
Just a heads up...for me ruu never worked with a unlocked bootloader so if it doesn't work relock your bootloader with the super tool thing in he dev section...just boot into fastboot from hboot and click relock bootloader, then boot back to fastboot and run the ruu

The beginning of step 6 requires you to relock the bootloader. Otherwise, the RUU or PH zip will not work.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium
Man this download is taking long, I still have 15 percent to go (6 minutes)!
I guess I have to have the RUU for any of this to work, so I'll stop playing around with it before I render the device useless. So I'll be patient since I have 5 minutes to go, then I should be able to perform any of the two methods found in the guide. I'm so glad there are so many here to help me, I love you guys! Don't be too flattered, I love my Vivid more! Once this is done, I'll thank each and every one of you!
OK all, I have to leave for right now. I started the RRU utility, but it stops at checking signatures.
ERROR (155) Unknown error
The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone. Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.
I have an AT&T Vivid, I thought the one for Holiday Cingular was the correct one? On the phone it says RUU update failed. So I'll look into it when I get back and try then. For some reason I can't update the HBOOT?
Bye for now!
I bet you can't update the bootloader while it is locked, LOL!
As said...I'll look into it when I get back.

It should work if you re-locked your bootloader... So that isn't the problem. Maybe somewhere during you trying to S-OFF you still managed to change the HBOOT to the unofficial one. If so, then the RUU or PH zip will both probably not work. Somehow you need to get back to the stock HBOOT. You might need to ask in the Juoponut bear thread or contact them directly.

Phone is back up and running and everyone is thanked!
Big thank you for all who stood by me during my time of sorrow.
really sorry for starting a new thread but i've been searching like crazy and i have not found anything like what i have to deal with.
So the phone WAS a stock rogers Raider, sim unlocked when i bought it. Everything was okay until i started messing around with it.
What has happened to the phone:
I used hasoon's kit to unlock the bootloader and gain root access, along with rom manager and cwm because i wanted to download an ics rom for my phone. well the VERY NEXT DAY the stock ota update for ics came out for my phone, and when i tried to update it the official way it would get stuck on the htc screen until my battery completely died beyond repair, so 2 weeks later when the new battery came in the mail, i was still rooted and on 2.3. I learned after that the ota updates do not work on my rooted phone for some reason, so i tried to install an ics rom through clockworkmod recovery, and now when i try to boot my phone it gets stuck at the htc screen and doesnt do anything more, but using power and vol. UP i can still access hboot, which says "unlocked with s-on" ive tried to hit "factory reset" but it still wont boot.
If possible, what i would like to do to the phone:
Completely restore the phone to stock, locked bootloader, unrooted, and to a stock gingerbread so i can install the ota ice cream sandwich update.
I know i'm asking for a ton of help but please hear me out, im honestly getting depressed because of this darn phone.
Also, please use words as simple as you can because im really not the type of person who shouldve even started with all this stuff!

Use the guide in my signature. It's step 6. Basically what it entails is relocking the bootloader (an OTA, RUU, PH zip all won't work with an unlocked bootloader), then running the Rogers ICS RUU for your device (the link for that is in the guide). The RUU does the same thing as the OTA. That's the easiest way to do it. No need to mess around with going back to stock GB and all that. You can go straight to stock ICS if you re-lock your bootloader and run the ICS RUU.

You need to read before you jump the gun and mess around
First of all you can't be rooted and you can't have an unlocked bootloader for official updates/ruus
Second you can't flash ics unless you are s off and get an ics hboot
Here's the fix,
1) download the ruu from HTC website...I can try and find a link later
2) boot into hboot then fastboot
3) run the tool kit and use the relock bootloader option
4) if your phone reboots just go back to fastboot
5) if your bootloader now says relocked then just run the ruu

Thank you both for your replies, i absolutely agree i really regret doing this, a link would be greatly appreciated too. and i just relocked my bootloader and it says "relocked security warning" so i guess its relocked, and finally how would i run the ruu? Im really sorry for being so clueless
The ICS Rogers RUU is here. Just boot into hboot and run it on your computer.

okay thanks so much, it always says "All free download slots are in use" which is strange because it only says that when i try to download the rogers ruu. i guess i just have to wait.
*update*
okay one more annoying question i promise. if i download gingerbread ruu from hotfile, i cant post the link but from another thread it works, and by doing what you said, hboot, plugin to computer and run the .exe, can i then upgrade to 4.0 by using the ota?
When i re-locked my bootloader, to confirm i went into h-boot, and it should say "Re locked bootloader".
But follow slapshot guide to the tee and you'll be good.
