I need help S-off my device - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

I know how to do it just don't know how to do it from my current state. I am on S-on right now used Hansoon took kit to perm root it, currently not on stock rom. I am on Virtuous Inquisition Rom w/ 007 faux kernel.
I know hansoon has a s-off tool kit,but it saying that i should be on stock rom. Do I have to really go back to stock rom in order for me to s-off my device?
I tried to find every information here on the forum but can't seem to find anything too much information and I have someone who wants to buy my phone today who has T-Mobile. Trying to get a white HTC vivid.
I wanna able to s-off my device on my current root and rom. So I can unlock the sim

What I would do is back up what you have with recovery and the just relock and run the ruu just in case its really not hard , s off the phone then flash the recovery you had them do a back up and you should be right where you was just now have s off.

hey
Can you show me step by step? I'm really knew to this whole thing. When you say terms like relock and ruu I get lost.forgive me for my noobiness
I know how to backup from the recovery just terminology wise i get lost lol. Maybe I have an idea of what your talking about.

Ok i get it so just back up everything, flash the stock rom which is RUU and S-Off tool kit then flash my previous rom before the ruu one right?

I backed up everything through recovery. Relocked the bootloader, installed the RUU. I used Hasoon took kit to perm root my device again, flashed recovery and SuperSU. Then used Hasoon s-off tool kit, clicked on Juopuntbear S-OFF (ICS) connected succesfully then I keep getting this message something about wire several times and my screen is just stuck at the juopuntbear logo with a green arrow pointing down on a phone. Which keeps staying on that same screen everytime I boot after the HTC boot up screen.
2nd attempt to do it but now from Hboot. I keep getting this message

Glad you got it, enjoy

Good job man ,

Wow - I did the S-OFF process this morning... I couldn't for the life of me get it to work for a good 20 minutes. First it said it couldn't find the "daemon", then it froze, then it kept coming up sober (like a dozen times)...
... and then finally it worked!
That wire trick - nerve-wracking! But so worth it!

Seriously the most useful aspect of rooting. Fastboot flashing isn't that much of a pain, but if you're flashing left and right it certainly saves some time.

How to update to the new HBOOT for S-OFF Users

Ive beaten the system!
back you entire image with backup in cwm4, you can restore the image straight after all this and nothing will be out of place.
firstly you need to create a folder on c: called Android so it looks like this.
C:\Android
in there you need these files
adb
adbwinapi.dll
fastboot
download this >these 3 files, unzip into c:/android
secondly, you need to add one of these this image files to your sd.
>O2 UK
>HTC Europe
>Asia WEE
>Asia India
>Voda-Hutch AU
>Hutch AUS
it holds the newest hboot version for your area or ruu that your running, allowing you access to the unlock code.
reboot into hboot and update it. ( when there it looks for pm11img and it'll say update press up).
reboot again in to hboot.
it'll go through first process again, but don't panic, just press down.
now it should show up with a pink bar at the top of hboot saying *****locked*****
good, now your in! leave your phone in its current state and goto the htc dev site, follow instructions to get code....5mins tops!
unlocked it via the instructions.
you loose everything and go back to your original ruu you flashed with. hence the backup
ok, now goto cmd prompt ( little dos window) and follow the guides shown with cmds for fastboot etc...posts everywhere here and htc tell you on there site.
ok. your bootloaders unlocked...it will say in the top in pink. *****Unlocked*****
now......you need to flash cwm 5.
follow kandeds post to the letter.
there cwm installed.
reflash your backup img to restore everything as it was....jobs done!
and the added benefit that its still s-off lol
now you can hopefully enjoy all the benefits of htc freedom instead of xtc lol.
2 other files as listed elsewhere in this thread are these. (Not tested)
http://www.htcdev.com/ruu/PH1111000_Icon_G_hboot_1.08.0000_R.exe

great job, mate. so now the data2sd script works for you ? let me know.
hey hey hey where my credit lolz....?
after our breakthrough of replacing xtc with htcdev bootloader hopefully u guys will get some optimized rom... waiting for bigbear to test few roms for me & i'll also get my hands on a salsa tomorrow...
So if I'm reading correctly.....no need for the xtc clip now?...just seems to good 2 b true lol

Yes I , BigBear and a veryfew others were the ones to S-OFF our devices even before the HTC Dev came up with a unlocked Bootloader for HTC Salsa and other devices
So even if you have S-ON no need for the xtc clip anymore...just follow the unlocking thread (in general section ) or HTCdev.com n than u can Root ur phone ...
xtc clip is only and only required to S-OFF the device but now as HTC has themselves given out the unlocks dont bother to s-off

Pleaee note.....sometimes it will not update automatically via the HTC hboot update...hence my little files in first post.
If you are trying tto auto update via HTC.....stop, try one of mine, add it to your SD,
Boot into hboot and try and update that way. Let me know your progress...get some pics of above mentioned too....

Hi Bear,
The phone is not able to find the PH11IMG file. I have tried downloading all. It can see the file but it never ask for update. When I run the adb for token, it either stays waiting for device or I will get n error. Any help?
Thanks.
What hboot version have you got? Check your version on the first bootup menu, also have you got s-off or on?

Hi Bear,
Thanx.. I got it at last. What I did was after a few days, I did another check and update Software, then I am able to run from HTCdev. After posting the token I am able to Unlock Bootloader. I have tried one of the roms. Just to check, if we run again the rom, do we need to rerun the App2sd as well? It seems that the partition is missing.. I am actually doing it for a friend..
Thanx..
Regards,
Huzz107.
It depends but normally yes u do have to redo the data script on each rom

I can enter commands like "reboot" which work
Lol.....can u say it? Read title again...for s-off users!
You have s-on.
For you it requires a proper update via htcdev and then unlocking. It will do it.
You may be able to use fastboot...I could but wasn't able to unlock till I has full update, and being s-off I had to create a work around.....which s-on users cannot use.
Sent from a 3.5 Sensed Salsa
Referring to posts #14 and #16 indicates user huzz107 with S-ON as being able to successfully unlock the boot loader after an update software to the correct version. The phone I have went through a FOTA update recently to the current correct version as indicated on the htcdev website, I was under the impression this is a proper update just like what huzz107 did. I am now unsure as to what a proper update is

[Q] Inc s gets stuck on "htc" bootup screen

Hi guys
I searched everything before trying this and thought i was doing the right thing but no . I was on a rooted froyo with cwm installed. I downloaded the RUU "RUU_VIVO_SENSE30_S_hTC_Asia_HK_3.09.708.2_Radio_20.4802.30.0822U_3822.10.08.28_M_release_227715_signed"
and did the update. It said successful and after the phone rebooted, it is still stuck on the same screen. I cannot do anything except remove the battery to switch it off. Please help
PS: I am from India btw and I used the AsiaHK RUU . Would that be the problem?

The problem is you are S-OFF with Revolutionary and the 3.09 RUU you flashed the Android 2.3.5/Sense 3.0 ROM which needs to have HBOOT 2.00 installed in order to boot and run.
The Revolutionary S-OFF HBOOT is preventing the RUU from installing HBOOT 2.00, thus the reason you are now in this state.
Checkout the FAQ sticky post in this forum on how you should proceed.
I used an exe installer friend. And I am really new here so I am relatively new to the terms u guys use. So whats a sticky in the faq?? Do I still have hope or should I give it to htc. The htc service in India is really bad and if they find out I am s off they wont touch my piece unless I pay them. So I am stuck either way...
Pl help
OK I finally found the sticky!! I got a similar thread there but it says something bout unlocking the hboot. Can u please explain what that means. How do I know if the hboot has been unlocked?

At this point you don't need to worry about unlocking the bootloader because you have the Revolutionary S-OFF bootloader.

OK, let's try to get your phone operational again.
Download this HTC official RUU/ROM:
http://www.filefactory.com/file/c0a...5AU_3805.04.03.27_M_release_189979_signed.exe
You should be able to install this ROM and still have Revolutionary S-OFF bootloader in place. Hopefully this will fix your phone and have it boot normally.

Is the fix for white screen by getting the right version of PG32IMG.ZIP? if so could you please post the link. I have tried updating the radio a couple of times.
Hi again tpbklake. I tried installing the rom u mentioed but it says usb error and rightly so because my phone cannot turn on and hence cannot read the rom. I tried installing the rom when the phone is on the htc screen and also when it is just plugged in without turning it on. Same error. My phone only gets charged when connected to the pc but when I turn it on the charging light goes off. Just putting as much info as possible. Dunno wot to do

Ok then you need to extract the ROM.zip file from that RUUand then copy it to our SDcard and rename it PG32IMG.zip and then reboot into hboot and see if it will flash that way.
How do I extract the zip file from an exe? Is there a zip file of the same RUU?

Vivid will not reboot after flash or Juopunut S-off

I was trying to obtain S-off through Juopunut Bear, but after it finds my device and tries to reboot it into its program, it simply doesn't reboot. The phone then will not start at all unless I pull the battery and boot into Hboot. From there I flashed my backup img through fastboot and I was good. I found this thread that said I need to ICS 3.32 firmware. On my phone I noticed I am on Software number 3.26.502.56, so I tried to flash the provided download of 3.32 using fastboot. And it did the same exact thing! Would not reboot, and had to battery-pull and re-flash my backup to get it to work.
What is my problem here?
I am on a unlocked and rooted HTC Vivid running stock ICS and stock Kernel.
I really hope I am not committing a stupid error and wasting everyone's time, but it is possible. Thanks in advance for any help!

If you can get hboot relock the bootloader and run the stock ruu file seems to work for ant errors I've ever gotten , then just go back and redo every thing but s off it should stay off .

Not sure I'm completely understanding you. I need to relock and run stock ruu, then redo everything except s-off? That kind of defeats the purpose, I am trying to s-off

Yes if you are having problems after any mod to the os just relock the bootloader and run the stock ruu file and it will fix the issue , then go back after you got the phone working right and then unlock the bootloader , flash recovery , root , ect .
But the s-off should stay off and you won't have to redo that step .
So basically you will be on a stock ics with s-off
Then just redo the process to get it where you want it .

I'm sorry but this just doesn't make sense, the phone is automatically S-On not S-Off, so it won't 'stay s-off'. You understand what I mean?

did you succeed s-off ?
if you did the s-off procedure via " wire trick " was successful the relocking the boot loader will not change the s-off it will stay off ,
Then relock. Run ruu now you are stock ics with the s-off still , and all the errors should be fixed .
Then just re unlock bl , flash recovery , root , flash New custom Rom / kernel, ect.
All I'm saying is if you have s-off then your good ,
To fix all the errors run the ruu , only reason you need to relock bl is the ruu will reject the install if you are unlocked .

Oh, we are talking past each other. I did not succeed s-off, when it reboots my phone via Control Bear it does not boot into the Juopunut program, and I have never had a chance to do the wire trick! Thanks for the help though.

I had trouble on my first S-OFF attempt. I had made a mistake (I missed one of the S-OFF prep steps in section 2 of the SuperGuide, which is at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416836 ).
If you want to try again?
-If you have relocked your bootloader, flash your phone stock using your appropriate RUU while phone is in Fastboot mode.
*** If you haven't relocked bootloader yet, you can do it first via fastboot ("fastboot oem lock")
-Start at section 1 of the superguide (unlocking the bootloader, yeah it sucks to do the process again but thankfully htc makes it easy!)
-And then you can try S-OFF process again (section 2 in superguide)
I know this is for the Vivid but I have the same problem with my EVO 3D. And Can get any help from anyone over there. I just relocked the evo but dont know the next step. Can anybody help me here?

Download the ruu from HTC or you should be able to download it from the EVO 3d forum while in fastboot mode hook you phone up to your computer fastboot should change to fastbootusb then double click on the ruu and let it do its thing do not unplug till it is finished then you will be out of box stock

Screwed Up :(

Hey guys,
I screwed up my Incredible S, I'm stuck in the HTC screen and if I volume down+power, it goes to that hboot screen and if I select recovery, I go to revolutionary (so I can't warranty)...
I tried using A LOT of "stock" roms, tried RUU etc but nothing seems to be working...
Also, it used to be on the optus 2.3.5

What are you trying to accomplish? Are you trying to restore back to stock for warranty?
If so, you need to follow this procdure so that you can overwrite the Revolutionary HBOOT with an RUU.

Well, the phone doesn't work at all at the moment so getting it back to work would be good. If it's getting it back to stock then sure, I'll do that
"1. Install RUU ROM from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1033922"
Link doesn't work =/
I'm assuming it is this one: RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_Optus_AU_2.12.980.2_R_Radio _20.2803.30.085AU_3805.04.03.12_M_release_185028_s igned
My phone was running optus before I stuffed it.
Also, what do I do to install, if I run RUU and follow the steps, it will just and and say it can't do it. Do I copy the rom.zip file and rename it to PG32IMG.zip then put it on a USB and go to bootloader?
I seem to be getting "signature verify fail"...
This thread seems to look exactly like my problem but it seems to be much more confusing...

OK, start the process beginning at Step 2. Don't worry about step 1 for now.
So first you need to prepare the Revolutionary HBOOT to be overwritten by following step 2.
Then you should be able to run the RUU or as you stated, extract the ROM.zip, rename it PG32IMG.zip on your SD card and boot into bootloader.

Here is a link to the optus 2.3.5 ruu http://d-h.st/cGj
You're not s-off if you're getting signature error. Were you ever s-off or just unlocked bootloader? If unlocked bootloader only, you will have to lock it before running the ruu.
How exactly do you "downgrade HBOOT"?
I managed to install virtuous quattro yesterday but then...my WiFi, parts of the touchscreen and the bottom 4 touch buttons don't work.
Strange problem.

Boy you are all over the board on this thread. First you asked how to get back to stock s-on for warranty and now you are asking about downgrading the hboot to go back to s-off.
You have been given links for removing Revolutionary S-Off and flashing the Optus RUU. I suggest you follow those to get your phone straightened out first before going any further.

[HELP] HTC One broken

I heard that android 4.3 came out today so I wanted to convert my HTC One to a Google Play edition. I unlocked the boot loader through HTC dev. I then tried to S-OFF but that didn't work because I got errors. So I factory reset the phone and when I turned it back on the WiFi didn't work. It just says error. I tried dialing *#*#526#*#* but nothing came up. I then tried to go into recover but It just shows up a red triangle with an exclamation point. The boot loader says *** TAMPERED *** *** UNLOCKED ***
I'm shaking right now. I am really scared that I just wasted $500 on this phone. Can anyone please help me. This is serious. :crying:
EDIT: I leave on vacation in 3 days so this is really urgent. There are also some bugs where when I download apps they are invalid or they cant be saved to the sd card.

So do you know if you have to be S-Off to change the RUU? I wanted to follow this tutorial. http://htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-...with-bootloader-recovery-ota-updates-0148068/[1]
EDIT: I have a different model apparently. Mine is PN0713000, it says you're suppose to have PN0712000. To change it it also says you're suppose to have S-OFF but I keep getting errors with both Moonshine and revone.
