I have a weird problem which is,
Whenever I go back to home screen it just says "Loading....". I have noticed this problem after doing s-off using
unlimited.io protected HBOOT (ICS).
I downloaded Smooth Rosie from one of the threads but it faild to install.
My phone is unlocked,rooted, s-off and using stock ICS ROM which was installed previously using OTA update.
Any help much appreciated.
I have managed to sort it out with help from Sensation forum.

So got the Incredible S in the beginning of July and was very happy with it, beat the hell out of my old HD2 who got bricked Desided not to root this one cause it was already android and i didnt want to break the warranty. But then the 2.3.3 update came and i didnt recieve text and calls was dismissed. (it is an own thread about this issue on the forums) so i desided to try a rom from XDA to see if this could help solve the issue. It did not but i rooted the phone (S-off right?) and used it with GSM only.. today i talked with HTC support and got a hold of the RUU_Vivo_HTC_WWE_1.36.405.1_Radio_Radio_20.23.30.0 802U_38.02.01.11_M_release_172670_signed.. the cusomter support guy uploaded it and i installed it with the USB cable.. the installer said everything went fine.. the phone reebots.. boots to the HTC logo screen and turns off again.. and keeps on going in the same cycle..
I can get into bootloader, but when i press "power" to choose recovery it goes straight to the white htc screen again and reebots.. what to do now? Is this one dead also?
Tried rename RUU to PG32IMG and put it on the memory card.. still no luck it says "Bootloader - Bypasses"
"TP - Bypassed"
"TP - Bypassed"
Why? And still no luck tried with two signed RUU's now.. The bootloader says
Vivo PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT 6.13.1002
At least i want all the Revolutionary stuff gone.. Any idea? Im out of ideas right now.. Oh geez, it booted the 2.1.3 RUU.. nice.
But why would not the other room work? This is the one i have to get workin.. Any ideas?
Does the RUU got a radio in it? Please share this RUU cause I believe this is not avaible anywhere. I would give it a try then and report if I have issues.

Yes I think it can be a radio conflict too, perhaps you downgraded it.
Here you go Please give a report if it work on your device
I also want to gain S-ON on my Incredible, used AlphaRevX Beta to get the S-OFF but i need it to be S-ON again, and i cant really fint the information on how to do it. These forums are amazing but very hard to navigate true, and find the information you are looking for.
Was thinking... You said you are S-OFF and then installed the 1.36 RUU. Possibly this RUU or ROM needs an older bootloader. Cause the bootloader cannot be overwritten (I assume you used Alpharev), the installation is aborted.
The newer RUU accepts the current bootloader and therefore is being installed.
I think, when you first downgrade your Hboot to the one that can be overwritten, the RUU should work and you can enjoy Froyo again!
So did it work ?

How to do this? Do i need to S-ON first? Or?
Have got a rooted Incredible S since this morning and have been busy all day trying to get it S-On so i can update it.
That worked so i downloaded the update, then it restarted the phone and it stopped on the fastboot screen, which i guess shouldn't be happening.
Been searching for a while now but can't seem to find the problem, anyone who can help me?
Grtz
hello tigah8
why don't you take a custom rom as e.g. Android Revolution HD
I'm using it since I can't update my rooted sock rom to 2.3.5 and I'm very satisfied.
greetings, Richie

You need to post this on the Downgrade thread and supply some more infomration. What state was your phone in before you started the downgrade? HBOOT version, ROM version, etc.
If you could posts the exact steps you used and how you answered the questions when you ran the script, that would be helpful also.
Not a very helpful OP. Was your bootloader unlocked when you attempted the downgrade? You do know how to enter boot mode (volume down + power)?
well, before i downgrade my device. It was in android 2.3.5 and htc sense 3.0 and also the hboot before downgrade was 2.01.0001. So i need to downgrade the hboot to root my device.
I was using this thread for my downgrade
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1373697
So now my device only stuck in the HTC logo screen and I can't do anything about it. I even use the bootloader which i need to press vol down+power and factory reset it and still its not working. I did wipe all the cache and everything but still wont give me any result.
Now my current hboot version is 1.13.0000 and it is still S-On
So is there anyway for me to recover back everything from where it was before? or possible to make it root and use it normally?

Run the ruu again, the one you downloaded from my thread. Take note of any errors that occur and post the results here.
You should intalled Rom Ship use gold card
Hi XDA, I hate to make a thread about this when there are so many good guides on these forums but I am really stuck. Yesterday I tried to root my phone, which went successfully using revolutionary and CWM. However whenever I try to run a custom ICS ROM the phone will not progress past the ROM's splash screen. I have tried Ice Cold Sandwich and Virtuous Vivo neither which work. After something I did the phone did not advance past the HTC logo after which I reverted to the stock gingerbread RUU. Everything is working fine on rooted gingerbread now but I really want ICS. I updated the radio which I think got reverted when I reinstalled stock gingerbread, I also tried fast-booting the boot.img which also didn't work. I doubt both ROM's are corrupted because I downloaded them on high speed internet. Also tried wiping cache, dalvik cache etc before installing didn't work. Can anyone help me?
phone info:
S-OFF
Revolutionary HBOOT 6.13.1002
Running stock gingerbread RUU
EDIT: Would also like to know if I can install official OTA ICS update on my phone (not out in Australia yet). I have a gold card and s-off but my CID is not htc_001. If someone could link me or tell me how to do that it would be appreciated.

There is now a rooted version of the stock RUU/ROM that can be installed via CWM recovery and preserves your Revolutionary S-OFF. You might want to give that a try to see if you can live with the HTC stock experience.

No, it installs like any custom ROM via custom recovery which doesn't check for those type of things. You may have to manually put in your APN settings for network access if your carrier isn't listed.

Hi all,
I've been trying to get s-off on my One for a a few hours now and I've searched a lot of threads looking for an answer.
I think my problem is that I don't have an option on my One to disable fast boot in the battery settings, so attempting the s-off methods fail. I've tried different roms and even changed my kernel in an attempt to make the option reappear, but nothing worked. Any ideas on how to get the fast boot option to reappear?
Details:
GE-based rom 4.3
kernel based on GE 4.3 kernel
Please let me know what specific details you need.

Doubt if it's the "fastboot" option that's preventing you from obtaining S off. What's your Hboot version? Anything above 1.44, you won't be able to S off. It's advised that you should be rooted and type in the root command (su) in adb shell to get root access, then start the S-off process.

I've actually been able to obtain s-off since this post by doing hard restarts instead of rebooting via adb. I still have no idea why the fast boot option disappeared, but everything is going smooth now for my migration to a GE One.

Noob question
Just got my one on Saturday, I've unlocked it and running a custom Rom. Tried to get s-off and it says successful but when I go into recovery it says s-on and shows up with tampered on screen.
Tried different methods but still failed.
After reading this post I realise that my hboot is 1.54 and can't be done.
My question is that since s-off isn't available what does it mean for me personally? What are the limitations of my device without s-off?
I've just come from an Xperia Z so I didn't have to deal with any of this

With the S on your still able to flash custom roms, kernels, recoveries and flash radios, fine for most users since this gives you plenty of options. Advance users may want to flash different firmware and/or bootloader (Hboot), change the device's region or IDs, remove "Tampered" from the Hboot screen, etc. and that requires S-off. Not really needed to make your device run smoothly but it's cool to have these extra options, even though there's added risk. Maybe someone will find an exploit to enable s-off in the 1.54 Hboot soon.
Thanks for the detailed information much appreciated

True, since GE roms boots faster then Sense roms. Don't know why the OP was not able to reboot via adb command.
