Hey all.
As you can see I'm pretty new here, and I try to be sure that I do thing as they have to be, so before I start, I asking people that know better than me.
Well, I have non-rooted HTC Sensation XL, with Android 2.3.5 (Gingerbread) software build 1.30.461.1, Radio 20.5102.30.0822U_3822.11.10.30_M, CID HTC__K18, S-ON and re-locked Bootloader.
The goal is to update my device from Android GB to ICS.
So I got to "Runnymede Shipped ROM Collection" post, on "Sensation XL Android Development" forum, and downloaded from there an "RUU_RUNNYMEDE_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_2.31.401.2_Radio_20.70.30.0832U_3831.16.00.16_M_release_258303_signed.exe" ruu.
Now, I want flash this RUU to my device on fastboot.
So, did I do it right? can I flash this RUU when my device S-ON? Have I do a "Wipe" or something else before? I didn't want to break my phone. help please?

Its ok, you can install it as well. After that do a reset factory. REMEMBER THIS OPERATION WILL ERASE YOUR DATA/PHOTO/MOVIES ETC.

Hey.
I try to install this RUU, and I get "ERROR {130}: MODEL ID ERROR"
I sure miss something...
maybe it's because my CID (HTC__K18) that not support the EU RUU.
I'm afraid to mess with сhanging CID, and S-OFF and ect'. afraid to braik my device.

If your device has not been offered the OTA ICS update yet, then perhaps it has not been released yet. What country are you from? Is your phone branded/simlocked or factory unlocked?

I'm unlock the bootloader by myself, so I doesn't receive OTA updates.
I'm from Israel, and the phone is from "Cellcome" (Israeli communication company) so the phone doesn't receive updates from HTC.

I also afraid do this steps.
Just if someone will tell me that it's safety at 100%, and work at 100%, then maybe I'll do it.
update by setting tell that no updates for me...
If you follow the steps perfectly then there is no harm doing anything on these forums, It can be nerve wrecking at first, but once you start learning, you'll become more confident, I've got S-Off, it was easy... Just follow the steps. Have a look here as I'm pretty sure that this is an upgraded version of Fardjad's S-Off... http://unlimited.io/runnymede/

Wait a minute, I have to do this before I do this?? :silly:
(We tallking about "How to install RUUs with different CIDs", not the "Runnymede S-OFF", right?)
To install a RUU with a different CID you need to be S-Off, on Fardjab's you need to edit the CID in the rom.zip, with the http://unlimited.io/runnymede/ one It says that it passes the CID check... I haven't tried flashing a different regions RUU so I can't be 100% sure.

I think I have a problem, big problem.
for S-OFF I have to be rooted, but my software version (1.30.461.1) not rootable.
So I have to flash another RUU version, but the problem is that I can't flash any other RUU, because the CID didn't let me to. I'm stuck.

Depends what you want to do? You need to downgrade to use that. Not sure if that's possible as I no longer have the device and never bothered doing it anyway.

Downgrade what? look, all I want to do it's Install the EU ICS RUU version. but because my CID didn't let me to, I'm looking for some way to install it anyway.

Just to make things a bit clearer, because this thread comes up as the first result on google searching "Stock ICS root Sensation XL"
- DOomLords v4, and v2 do not work. Gingerbread only.
- Shingers method from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1625841 does not appear to work for me, get a black screen when booting to recovery after flash, adb works, minimal system, no way to flash anything from /sdcard/.
