Guys! I unlocked my phone by htcdev.com. I can also use blackrose, or I will brick my phone?
Oh, sorry! I have a 2.01 Hboot version, it's okay for the new ICS Sense ROM?

HBOOT 6.13.1002 - worked for me. Thanks nik

It should be because that is what blackrose is based on. Why does revolutionary hboot not work with ics?

Okay, thanks!

I had installed BlackRose a month ago. And now I tried to flash the new radio, but adb says "no devices found" when in fastboot usb. In recovery it finds it tho.
Ideas ?

Lucky for me I'm already on hboot 6.13.1002.
Thanks anyway.

Hmm, I've never really played around with the bootloader. I got my phone from another XDA member, who had already rooted it. So the only thing I've ever done (on my Inc S anyway) is flash ROMs. Is there a reason I would need to get Blackrose on my phone?
According to the bootloader I have:
VIVO PVT ENG S-OFF RL
HBOOT-0.96.2000 (PG3212000)

You need blackrose if you want to install ICS
You guys can also use this PG32IMG.zip to get blackrose. Just place it on your sd card, boot in bootloader and just wait. Tell me if it works, don't have the device anymore.

who needs / why do we need this??
I've been able to flash both sense ICS roms and AOSP roms before now - does that mean I don't need it??
thanks

It looks like you need the new unlocked bootloader for the new real ICS roms. Everyone need this. No matter what you have done and used before. But you can also wait for the new blackrose, so you're sure to have the right one.

I guess this worked for me
I had HBOOT 6.13.1002 and now it is HBOOT 2.00.0000

[SOLVED] Reversing Incredible S Soft-Brick After Trying to Revert to Stock with RUU

I am literally losing my mind!
About a month ago, I successfully rooted my Incredible S with Revolutionary, which updated my HBoot to 6.13.x, and then flashed Cyanogenmod 7 through ClockworkMod Recovery. For various reasons, I needed to give my phone to someone in stock form, so I tried using the rom.zip file from the stock RUU of my phone I found on these forums. After it seemingly completed successfully, except for the fact that it said it couldn't roll back HBoot, it asked to reboot, and ever since then, it repeatedly turns on and off, only making it as far as the first HTC logo. Bootloader still works, while recovery doesn't. Selecting recovery restarts the on-off problem. What should I do to revert to stock? Thanks in advance for ALL help.
Phone is from Bell Mobility, I think.
***Note: I know I shouldn't post unless going through EVERYTHING similar or related, which I've been literally doing for the past ten hours. Nothing has worked.

You need to flash the vivo_downgrade.img in fastboot mode before running an RUU if you have revolutionary s-off
Code:
fastboot flash hboot vivo_downgrade.img

After you do the fastboot command, you can then run the RUU again and it should then change the HBOOT.

Yeah I did run the RUU after, and after it once again seemingly finished successfully, I rebooted to the same problem, so I just dismissed it. Looking at it now, the Hboot has downgraded. Does this mean that if I run the RUU once more, I"ll be back to stock? Also, S-ON is on as well. Thanks for the help.

I'm not sure, but I think the problem I'm having may be that I've been using an RUU that's not Gingerbread, and my radio version is too high to accept it. Could that be it? Radio is 3805.04.03.X.

The radio version changes when the ruu is completed. The version you posted is quite low already, why not install a GB ruu anyway? Could you provide a link to the one that you did run?

Yes run the gb ruu, its usually a bad idea to run anything froyo anyway as it usually results in a brick.

Yep, it's fixed now. The problem was that I was using the Froyo ROM when I should have been using the GB ROM, as was pointed out, as well as my HBoot needed downgrading to accept the proper ROM as well. Thank you both for all the help, extremely appreciated.

Yes. As long as you have a cid that is relevant to this version (eg HTC__001) you will receive the ota update when it is released (hopefully today)
Don't forget, you also need stock recovery for it to install.

From Sense 5 to stock Google edition...?

Hello everyone.
I have the htc one with sense (with this rom -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183023)
I have it unlocked with htcdev.com (S-ON).
I would like to try the Google edition, and I saw I can download the file from HTCDev.
I was just wondering how can I do it... is it like a normal rom? download file copy to "sd" and flash?
Do I need to do anything else?
after I have the Google edition, will I be able to receive official updates? (OTA)
my HTC one is originaly with sense, will there be any issue if I use the GE instead?
Cheers

You need the s-off and use this guide

thk for the reply...
Im ok flashing a "normal" rom... but this seems to take a lot more work.
So, just to see if I understand correctly:
1 get soff following
2 change my MID to PN0712000
3 change my CID to GOOGL001 (but instead of GOOGL001 i can use 11111111 ? why should I chose one over the other? any benefits?)
4 then reboot and flash Full conversion RUU ZIP (in the end of the guide)
to flash the Full conversion RUU ZIP i have to run the following commands right? not by using recorery "install zip from sd card"
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip RUU-HTC_One_GE-2.14.1700.15.zip
fastboot flash zip RUU-HTC_One_GE-2.14.1700.15.zip
fastboot reboot
Where do I run these commands?
Last thing, will I be able to receive OTA updates from google?
Cheers

You run the commands from a command prompt that is opened from the directory on your PC where fastboot is located.

Yeah. Vomer's guide really is awesome though. Covers you from a-z
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

yes you can use that guide and i recommend you do S-OFF, however you wont need S-OFF to use the ROM, everything should work fine if you wipe data and flash just like you did for ARHD, if you use this Google Edition ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341395
with S-OFF you can change the CID later if you want. i personally havent flashed the Google bootloader because i want to switch between sense and google and everything still works fine
what version is your HBOOT currently?

[SOLVED] Achieve S-OFF with 4.3 GPe Rom

Not first time flasher, I installed a stock GPe 4.3 rom on my One and now I want to fully convert it. Right now, the device is:
- CID = TELUS001 (Telus in Canada)
- Bootloader: Unlocked
- HBoot: 1.44
- S-ON
My attempt to achieve S-OFF with Revone, in order to proceed to the first steps of the conversion, was unsuccessful because of my 4.3 rom. My question is about my next move. As I am unable to recover a non corrupted Telus RUU, I was wondering which option would best suit my needs:
1. I flash any 4.2 rom and then achieve S-OFF using Revone.
2. I get it back to stock using the Easy Stock Reset tool. Although I guess it won't work because of my CID but I probably miss something here.
3. Anything else.
I would like to have an advice/thought/coment on that.
Thanks

then use rumrunner to get S-Off
