Attempts to produce a rooted, CWM flashable zip from the 2.3.5/Sense 3.0 RUU/ROM have not been successful when flashing to a IncS with the older HBOOT versions.
Hi.
I just recently bought a new Incredible S and have been reading up on how to get a ICS rom.
According to the Guides in order to have root, i need S-OFF, and I can use Revolutionary if the HBOOT ver is 1.13.000.
But according to what i've read "HTC has released a OTA update for Android 2.3.5/Sense 3.0 and has bumped the HBOOT version to 2.01.0001".
And if so, to S-OFF i need to downgrade.
However after i updated my Incredible S to 2.3.5 my HBOOT ver is still 1.13.000.
Is this normal? Can I use the Revolutionary to S-OFF, without having to downgrade and with no problems?
Thanks.
Should be no problem. Do you have a link to the OTA?

Oh. Thanks. I hope not.
If by OTA you mean the 2.3.5 update, I don't think I do, i updated directly from the phone.
If 2.3.5 with sense 3.0 run on IncS, it should not boot because there is a new partition named and stored lib files. I think your phone is s-offed. Can you take a photo?

Lol @ damn. He means it already should not be booting. You're definitely s-on, are you sure you have 2.3.5 sense 3? The thing with gaining s-off is the fact that most faults are if fact recoverable.
If you're worried about not being able to boot I suggest you first download the custom rom of your choice, then run revolutionary. Using their cwm, make a backup of your stock rom then restart and check if it does in fact boot. If it does not, simply press and hold all 3 buttons(volume up + volume down + power) to reset. Never remove the battery while the phone is booting if you can avoid it. Then enter hboot the usual way, to recovery and flash your rom.
I suggest you upgrade revolutionary cwm as soon as you are up and running.

I don't think I fully understood.
So I can still get S-OFF to root?
I checked better and you're right I DO have 2.5.5 but only sense 2.1.
Should I get sense 2.1 update? Or not update and try S-OFF the way it is?
Thanks.

Yes if you truly have HBOOT version 1.13, you should be able to run Revolutionary to gain S-OFF and install ClockworkMod recovery. After that you should do a nandroid backup and then you will be free to install custom, rooted ROMs.
Hi Guys,
I need to know few things.
I have hboot 2.000 and I want to flash some mods and more over NIk's ROM.
So I know to flash mods and Nik's Rom I don't need to S-OFF my phone.
Now what I want to know is that do i need to downgrade my hboot or 2.0 hboot can be unlocked and rooted itself.
So please tell me what can be done all n all what I want is that I want to receive the OTA updates on my phone and don't want to void warranty.
Please help.

If you end up installing Nik's ROM , then you will not get OTA updates. If you are looking to not void your warranty, then downgrading your hboot and using Revolutionary is the safer of your 2 options. If you use HTCDEV.com to unlock your bootloader, HTC will know that you have modded your phone and in fact you must acknowledge to them that you are modding your phone.
With Revolutionary S-OFF as long as your phone is operational and you can get into HBOOT, then you could return to stock for warranty purposes.

Thanks man and If I only want to install CWM then even I have to do S-OFF and downgrade my Hboot.
Just One more thing that If I downgrade my HBoot then I get the ICS OTA update or not?

No on the OTA because during the downgrade process you will be installing an older RUU/ROM and you will end up with a phone that has a custom HBOOT image and a custom Recovery image, so you won't be able to take the ICS OTA.

Hmm, So there is no way to unlock HBoot 2.0 without downgrade.
and even if I downgrade after getting ICS then again I have to downgrade and have to lost the stock ICS ROM right??
Man there is no way that I just get the CWM & Root access without downgrading my HBoot??

Yes, you can unlock your HBOOT using the procedure at HTCDEV.com and then you can install CWM and root the ROM, but it will void your warranty.

Once the update is out we will have full working custom roms (I think we already do, sense 3.5 or 3.6, not too sure??) so no need to stress about the ota
Or wait for update, root phone and make a nandroid backup. You will then have a copy of your ota update.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705913
Hello,
I am from India. We haven't yet received the update for ICS on our devices. Can I just run the RUU with this file for my phone:
RUU_VIVO_ICS_35_S_HTC_WWE_4.10.405.1_Radio_20.74.3 0.0833U_3831.18.00.11_M_release_266013_signed.exe - 378.4 MB
Will the ICS work if I just run this update utility on my phone. Or should I wait for a region specific ICS?
You wont be able to Run the RUU due to CID mismatch im assuming you have dont have a goldcard or S-off.
wait for the OTA update..you know we Indians have a habit of being late....:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

Hey thanks buddy. One question, I am new to HTC but what is goldcard? I understand S-OFF after searching all over the internet.
If you dont mind, do you have stock Gingerbread now on your device or a custom rom?
Goldcard is a modified SDcard that allows you to flash any RUU, inshort it prevents the CID check performed by the RUU.
by the way i am S-Offed with Revolutionary and i have Niks Trinity XL v5.0 installed :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

So can I just proceed with creating a Gold card for myself without S-OFF and run the RUU for ICS update?
or should I be S-OFF as well along with Gold card creation. One last question. Is this the same update that would be rolled out to Indian customers as well or will there be any modifications?
Well there are two thinks that you should consider while going along with the steps
1) if you apply the OTA update to your mobile HTC will update the Hboot to version 2.02.000 something then you will never ever able to get s-off and install any custom roms
2) you can procede with the gold card method and then apply the update,but please proceed with caution any wrong step might brick your phone. i would advice since you are not experienced with rom flashing and rooting to wait for the Official ICS update from India they would be propbably out in a day or 2
3) if you are S-off you can try this ...

I will definitely hit the thanks button but before I let u go, I would want to install the rooted Official update that you mentioned in the third link. So I may have to apply S-OFF. My question is if I do turn the S-OFF and apply the Rooted RUU, will I be able to install custom roms in future as well. And can you post a link on how to proceed with S-OFF. That's what all I need. Nothing more mate.

Yes, once you S-OFF and install a custom recovery, you will be able to install custom ROMs, too.
You should check out the Downgrade Script sticky post in this forum to gain S-OFF.

@esoul
There is no need to flash the ruu just flash the zip file provided in the link mention by me in the first post and you will have a good stock experience of the ics
Sent from my Incredible S using xda app-developers app
Just download the zip Rom from below link...place it in you as card
Boot into recovery
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache and dalvik cache
Wipe battery stats
And install the zip from sd card
Once you are done the Rom will take around 5-10 mins for first boot please have patience

To which method are you referring to? References both the downgrade script to gain Revolutionary S-OFF as well as using the stock, rooted ICS ROM built from the RUU.
If you asking about installing the stock, rooted ICS ROM it does not include the radio.img, so it will not update your radio.
