If anyone could help that would be great. I rooted and unlocked my phone about 4 months ago so I could get cool droid a custom ics Rom. Then when I found out that the official Rom had come out for my device I decided to get that as I was having trouble with my battery life. So I restored a backup and downloaded the update. When I installed it boots into 4ext and trys to install but comes up with random code and says error in the location of update.
I am running unlocked bootloader, s-on and rooted
Please help

Gonna need to be more specific than "random code and errors" lol. What error does 4ext say when you try to install the ROM?
Also are you restoring a backup, and then trying to install the ROM? If so, don't. Do a full wipe/factory reset and format all partitions (except SD card) in 4ext before installing the ROM.
If you're trying to update via official HTC ota with a custom recovery and unlocked/s off bootloader, you can't. That's why its failing. I would suggest trying a custom Rom based on the official update

Even if you are HTCdev unlocked, because your recovery is not stock and you have unlocked your bootloader, you can't install the update. That's why its failing.
So either re lock it and return to stock to install the ota, or download a custom rom based on the update which will give you a stock experience.

Mark was right, you can't install official updates with an unlocked bootloader. If your looking for a stock experience I suggest flashing this ROM. It's Android revolution HD and it's based off the stock HTC ICS update but optimized for better performance. You'll also have to manually flash the boot.img since your S-ON. Follow the tutorial in this thread to learn how to flash the boot.img with fastboot.

Thanks ill give it a try How is battery life on the rom as this is the reason I wanted stock. My battery is pretty new around 4-5 months.
also found this on the page do i need blackrose and s off?
You need:
HTC Incredible S S-OFF
4EXT Touch Recovery
New hboot from [HBOOT][S-OFF] BlackRose
With 2.00 i haven't found out how to do it
could you help me thanks

No, as of the latest update 1.5, the rom does not need blackrose anymore.
Just flash the rom and flash your boot.img and you're good to go
Please correct me if I'm wrong though, I am just assuming because of the changelog

The ROM should work with revolutionary HBOOT now. Still waiting on confirmation for that though, but there's no risk to your phone the worst that could happen is the ROM won't boot.

If you want ICS AOSP then try Ice Cold Sandwich or Playground ICS

If you are using the ruu or updating ota then you need to relock your boot loader and return to stock gingerbread. Go here:

Look at the second post. Use the ruu for your phone. You should have stock gb. Then find the ruu ics for your phone and run it. Voila! You have ics.

Well I switched because I flashed the latest version but didnt really like it. It wasnt as responsive as before and I couldn't find v1 on my computer (which IMHO was the best). About the bug, yes it is true although it is supposed to be fixed in the latest update (might be touch and go though). As an all rounder daily driver, its probably the better AOSP 4.2.2 out there because 1. AOSP 4.2.2 is virtually down to CyanVivo10.1 and PACman 2. CM10.1 by dla5244 and AOKP have been pretty much stopped and 3. its more stable than PACman (which is pretty much all I need in a ROM). Please keep in mind that battery life will be good to a certain extent. In almost all Android 4.0+ ROMs that i have used, Sense ROMs tend to have the better battery life. I would suggest trying multiple ROMs (Sense or AOSP) to see what you value most in a ROM. From there, you can take a choice to see which u like best. My preference goes to Team Blackout for their Blackout ROM v3.2 (great battery life, stable, and its still got a good number of mods that you can add although it is discontinued for us)

The working roms are the ones that are based on ICS with or without sense.
HTC hasn't released the source code for the driver.
The desire C is retailed with ICS, as far as I know there haven't been android 2.2 Desire C's.
WiFi should be working flawlessly on your device, although you can try posting a logcat maybe some of the devs could point you to the solution.
I'll take a look at it if you are willing to post it here and see if i could figure out the problem.
Just install a custom kernel like the Prometheus in my signature. Then wifi should work with the Revolution Rom !
I'm not sure what happened with ReVolution, but I was getting "Error" in the little wifi widget persistently, and wasn't able to connect. Sorry I didn't get a logcat for it.
I ended up flashing Slim-Sense-v1, which I'm not sure is the best choice, but it seems stable for now.
Is there a good directory of these ROMS that is kept up-to-date? It seems very scattered and sparse over these forums and other sites for this phone.
Just download one click tool ( however) and put kernel in kernel folder then click boot to bootloader and click flash kernel and WiFi should work.

i sould stay with the atrix as its newer only thing the razr has is more internal storage as for the roms you can flash any of them really but i would stick with the newer roms.

Honestly, there really isn't. Each rom has its own little quirky issues.
PAC has no gps and a goofy Hangouts crash, wifi doesn't like to connect after the screen comes on (turn off then back on)
AOSPA works fine for some, not for others, no wifi for some
Slim has no gps, radio signal is bad, random wifi disconnects (fix like PAC usually, sometimes needs reboot)
CM10.1 gps...
All may have occasional lag, wifi issues, gps issues, random bluetooth issues, no camcorder, no HDR camera -- regular and panorama work
Its hit or miss at the moment. One nightly will be fine, next has crap battery, next has better battery but image banding...
None of them suck, but they might not be for you if you dislike development roms that may be incomplete or have a bug or two. Really depends if the bug is a deal breaker or not.
I still go back to clean ROM or the 4.1.2 mex jb ROM everything works and the batt life is a lot better . Also you can install cwm through ROM manager in the play store . Just use the photon q version . I have been able to flash every ROM with it . Make sure you back up b4 you start installing ROMs .

I keep seeing people freak out after flashing the full 3.04.651.2 firmware and then they have no touchscreen. First of all, don't flash anything if you have no idea what it will do. Read people, its not that hard.
Anyways, if you have flashed the latest firmware with the latest touch panel img, then you must have the latest TWRP (2.6.3.0) to have touch in recovery and you must also be on a rom running the latest kernel to have touch while booted into the system.

Very well explained sir thank you!! Been trying to figure out what was going on but its hard to follow while at work LOL
So thats why my viper Rom wouldn't have touchscreen

The only problem I've had so far is after updating TWRP to 2.6.3.0 if im in recovery and don't touch the screen until twrp goes into sleep mode, the screen turns black and I can't get the screen to turn back on. It stays black.
I have to hold the power button until I can reboot.
Don't know if someone else has had this problem but I figured I'd share it. See if someone else can replicate the problem.
I FLASHED FIRMWARE AND ALL THAT! TWRP OK, but my Tranquil ROM touch screen frozen. In order to fix this, I must go 4.3 or RUU 4.1.2 right?

Mine does the same thing. I got it to turn back on the first time, but after I leet it time out again, screen would not turn back on. Simple fix though, just go into settings and disable screen timeout.

You can't run tranquil with the latest touch panel firmware, that is why nothing works. Your only options are to downgrade your touch panel back or flash the new 4.3 stock rooted rom.
I think like the man said. You need to have an updated kernel. Or like you said run a 4.3 ROM or ruu it.

Could you link me to downgrading? I flashed the s-off firmwares in Indirects Threads for 1.31 to no avail. I'm 1.44 s-off... I was successful in flashing the 1.31 radio back thinking it would fix the touch panel

The 1.31 firmware from that thread doesn't contain a touch panel img, you would need to find firmware from 1.29.
I'm on the search for it now... Thanks for the heads up
I'm still on 42one v1.0 rom, I flashed the latest firmware and radios and have no issues, still using twrp 2.5.0.0

Just an FYI, I am in the process of getting the firmware for the 1.29.651.10 and 1.29.651.7 RUUs for who ever needs them.

-I installed OMJs ROM than I tried FLex's because I needed the gallery for work with 4.3.
-I always wait for the Radio's and Firmware to get sorted out after the bugs info starts flowing and then gets ironed out.
-I installed the ROMS using TWRP 2.5 and just installed the latest 2.6 variant of TWRP and i have no major issues with the exceptions of some of the glitches in the new ROMS ATM.
-I really Like what flex did to his ROM and I also really OMJ's amazing work. I hope Trickdroid can be ported over eventually I have been eying that ROM for quite some time
-Anyways happy flashing.

I'm actually not sure about that. Just make sure you do a nandroid backup before flashing the 4.3 rom. Also be sure you are aware of the file structure changes in 4.3:

No, flashing a 4.3 rom won't wipe your internal storage. A problem arises if you flash a 4.3 rom then try to return to a 4.1 rom. If you end up needing to do that, there is some information in that thread I linked earlier than you should read before doing so.
