Try Nik's new rom, I'm downloading now, According to nik post and users experience, this rom works on any hboot with any condition
Sent from my Incredible S using Tapatalk 2

somehow, the code will look into your device root folder /data/local/tmp/ and trying to create new folder and copy the hb file into it and flash it through the bootloader. the reason why the .exe is fail due to the blackrose can't access to the folder to paste the file and you see the cmd stuck and force exits.
i get mine done by:
1. 4ext touch recovery
2. IceColdSandwich 7.2.0 FAREWELL edition
make sure you get this done before you use the blackrose:
1. android SDK + platform tools and htc sync (drivers only) installed on your computer
2. your phone needs to be switched on normally.
3. connected via USB and in charge only mode with usb debugging switched on
if still not working, flash other rom and try again.
hope the developer will solve this problem for everyone.

Please elaborate. It was not as simple as just flashing a RUU, was it?
There were other steps involved, but at least there is a method for the IncS to undo the AlphaRevX S-OFF.
How to undo the AlphaRevX S-OFF?
S-ON
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.
Hi,
i tried your method..
but until writing hboot... INFOimage update is bypassed!!
so i mean i failed to flash it rite? anyway to solve this?
Thanks mate it worked!
I just installed the RUU and running stock I think. But reading the above I may missed some steps... Am I on the wrong h-boot now or how can I check this?

Boot into the bootloader. Power your phone off. Then hold the Volume Down Key and press the Power button. On the HBOOT screen it will show S-OFF/S-ON and your HBOOT version.
Thanks. It shows s-on and hboot 1.13. I assume this is stock. But then I don't see the purpose of the extra steps instead of just running the RUU. Can someone explain?

The S-Off feature of Revolutionary was implemented in their patched version of HBoot and it also prevented a RUU from writing and replacing their HBoot with a standard one, thus removing your S-Off status. The extra steps involved setting up the Revolutionary HBoot so it could be overwritten and replaced by a RUU, thus turning S-On and returning you to stock.

Easy Guide to revert back to S-ON for warranty!

Hi guys, Once again this guide thread comes from the mixture of everyone suggestions and ideas to make your phone S-ON with shipped ROM for warranty!
Collected the following info from the thread, Not my own idea!
First install the ADB and SDK tools and folders, mainly install the Fastboot!
If u dont have fastboot enabled see this http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Fastboot and this http://dottech.org/tipsntricks/21534/how-to-install-adb-and-fastboot-on-your-windows-computer-for-use-with-your-android-phone/
First Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033922 and install the shipped ROM which u had before .
Use this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18079795&postcount=1 to install the ROM, But this alone wont get you s-on when you do the process from the above link, Your phone will be Physically S-On but in the bootloader it will still show you s-off!
To change the bootloader to s-on then you need to follow the steps below,
1 . Now download this file from http://alpharev.nl/vivo_downgrade.img
2 . You should enable USB debugging mode, Turn your phone into FastBoot by unchecking the fastboot option in power settings
3 . Now your device will be switched off Remove your battery and insert it again.
4 . Now press (VOL DOWN + POWER Button) You will go into bootloader menu.
5 . When you boot into HBOOT, The first option is FASTBOOT. You select the menu options using the Volume Up/Down key. Once you select FASTBOOT menu, press the Power Button and it will take you to the FASTBOOT menu.
6 . Plug your USB cable in and the screen should change to FASTBOOT USB. Then on your PC, open a CMD window and change to the directory where you have installed the Android SDK tools, such adb.exe, fastboot.exe, etc. In the CMD window you would type the command:
fastboot flash hboot vivo_downgrade.img
7 . Wait for sometime, Then you would type the next command:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
8 . Now this is a tricky step, You should Select and open the ROM package you downloaded (But dont install) go to C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temp and at last folder find rom.zip
9 . You need to open the ROM.zip file and extract the file HBOOT.img from it and copy it to the same directory as the vivo_downgrade.img. Then you would type the command
fastboot flash hboot HBOOT.img
10 . Now again, wait for sometime type the next command:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
That's it you are back to s-on with stock !!!
You may check this by booting your device into BOOTLOADER , If it shows S-on, that's all You Performed the steps correctly!
If you are stuck at SECURITY WARNING BOOTLOADER because of missing some steps, Go to this following thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18706124&postcount=6
If you have a faulty USB port shake the usb cable it should definitely work at some angel, worked for me!

hI SATISH
if u revert back to s-on to update the latest OTA you cannot s-off ur device again because it comes with a newer bootloader.. To know which RUU you should install, then check with fastboot getvar all to know your mainver
Read my full thread and also this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16684717&postcount=38
Everything is inside those two threads .. just sit and read .. You will figure it out!

Hi Santosh,
Thank you for the update, I had infact done the S-on ( dont know how i managed to do it, i was having the OTA update somewhere, and i run it as PG32IMG.zip and then flashed the HBOOT image file as you have mentioned and voila the S_ON is back. ).
I know there is no option for S_off again, but i have my bet on you dev's.
Is the update for 2.3.5 is released for indian IS user's or any expected date.?
Waiting to see how the performance.

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.

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

[Q] HTC Incredible S Stuck on HTC Logo

Hey guys, so this is my first post here on XDA, and being totally honest I am a complete noob who has no idea what technical terms mean. Terms like S-Off and H-Boot are all Greek to me. :/
Ok so I have an Incredible S which came with a custom ICS Rom. But since there's an official rom from HTC Dev I downloaded that, connected my phone to HTC Sync and ran the exe file. Everything went fine, the progress bar went on, but after the setup on my pc said that it was completed the phone just seems to be stuck on the HTC white screen. It was that was for over an hour and I knew something had gone wrong.
The rom that I downloaded was the NAM one.
I know how to get into the bootloader screen (power and volume down) and these are what I see there:
VIVO PVT **** S-OFF RL
HBOOT-6.13.1002
RADIO-3831.19.00.19_M
eMMC-boot
Apr 1 2011,18:34:39
I thought I got a corrupted rom or something so I downloaded the WWE rom from HTC Dev as well, but when I extracted the rar file it's a whole load of folders and files I don't even know how to use, unlike the earlier NAM file which was a simple exe. What worries me more is that I have no idea how to even connect the phone to my USB and get a rom inside the SD card so I could flash it through the bootloader.
I went through so many threads on this forum but like I said, I don't really understand all the techy terms. :/
Many apologies, but I'd really appreciate a walkthrough on how I can get my phone to work again.
Present status with the phone is that it won't get past the HTC logo screen and won't connect to the computer.
Please help!
Thank you!

Your phone has the Revolutionary S-OFF HBOOT which is preventing the WWE RUU from running successfully. At this point, you have the new ROM installed, but it requires the stock HTC ICS HBOOT be in place to boot and run, thus the reason the phone gets hung at the HTC screen.
I suggest you reinstall a custom recovery such as 4EXT and then install mike1986's ARHD ROM. This is based on the latest HTC ICS ROM that you have attempted to install, but has a number of performance tweaks.

Hi tpbklake,
So I am new to this as well so bare with me. I have the exact same problem (WWE RUU not running because of Revolutionary S-OFF HBOOT) however I'm not sure how to go about implementing your solution. You see, I can open the bootloader however I can't get past it. Fastboot doesn't do anything for me. What can I do to get past this problem?

Do you have HTC Sync and the associated drivers installed on your PC? What OS are you running? It sounds like a driver issue to me.

I do have HTC Sync and I do have the HTC drivers installed. I'm running Windows 7. The problem is that HTC Sync nor my computer cant locate the device because the phone doesn't go past the bootloader screen. If I try to start the phone normally or in recovery mode it just freezes at the white htc screen.

OK, remove HTC Sync, but leave the HTC drivers installed.
Boot the phone into bootloader and then then select FASTBOOT from the HBOOT menu.
Then connect your phone with the USB cable and the phone menu should change to FASTBOOT USB.
Once you get that far, you should be able to flash a custom recovery using the command
fastboot flash recovery [name of the recovery.img file]
You should download the recovery.img file to your PC and put it in the same directory where you have the adb.exe and fastboot.exe.

Once you get that far, you should be able to flash a custom recovery using the command
fastboot flash recovery [name of the recovery.img file]
You should download the recovery.img file to your PC and put it in the same directory where you have the adb.exe and fastboot.exe.

x.xx.709.x is in your list it should work
My recommendation is to install rumrunner using 32 bit ubuntu. Not 64. No worries about drivers.. you don't have to install ubuntu, just put it on a disk or usb, boot into it and select try instead of install. After days of tryng different methods, computers and versions of windows, ubuntu worked the first time . Rumrunner has a version for ubuntu and instructions on their site
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
can we post outside links? >.> i hope we can here try this http://rumrunner.us/downloads-2/

For sure? if it wont , the phone can brick or something?
im on 3.63 and i was able to S-OFF my phone.
So..
I tried to do that and its says after the dots:
ERROR: run rumrunner again and READ (no adb connection to device. Debugging on
Drivers?)
Press ENTER to exit
Drivers installed.
There is ADB Connection.
Debugging on.
1) are you on windows or linux
2) if your on windows make sure you reboot to fastboot first and connect cable so it can install the second driver
3) also watch the phone when its running at one point you have to allow the computer to connect in a higher mode or it will fail and still might but after you allow/accept this mode it should be good to go
I was able to set S-OFF on my ATT HTC One. I would suggest to make sure the drivers you have is the latest.
1. Android SDK - http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
2. Search the xda forums for latest compatible driver for your PC. Here's a thread with a collection of windows drivers - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2089508
3. Make sure to see your phone appear in Device Manager when connected (if using Windows OS).
4. You can also use the following command after the Android SDK "platform-tools" is installed & phone connected: adb devices
Hope this help.
