Hi there
I have had S-OFF via XTC-Clip for a long time but always wanted the alpharev hboot
so with help IEF on their IRCchannel I got it done
AGAIN this only gives you the Alpharev hboot, it will not provide initial S-OFF, this has to be achieved via XTC-Clip or other methods (there are none I know of) and will also NOT work on S-ON devices
first things first
THIS MAY SURELY BRICK YOUR DEVICE IF YOU DO IT WRONG OR SOMETHING GOES WRONG
you need fastboot, adb, on win the drivers, and the attached LEGEIMG.zip
boot into bootloader
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
then do
Code:
fastboot getvar modelid
it should state
Code:
modelid: PB76*****
then
Code:
fastboot getvar cid
should return
Code:
cidnum: 11111111
and finaly
Code:
fastboot getvar mainver
which should be
Code:
mainver: 1.02.666.3
but could also differ
IF IT DOES DIFFER and is not smaller or equal, you will need to change the mainver in the android-info.txt in the attached LEGEIMG.zip to your numbers, and rezip it
if everything is alright on that side, do
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
and then
Code:
fastboot flash zip LEGEIMG.zip
where as the LEGEIMG.zip must be in your current folder
you should now type in
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
and be presented with the alpharev hboot
hf and I am certainly not responsible for any bricks AND THIS MAY SURELY BRICK YOUR DEVICE IF YOU DO IT WRONG OR SOMETHING GOES WRONG
So, it can S-OFF legend with Hboot 1.00.0000 and 1.01.0000, right? Are you sure?
No it doesnt, it's just for XTC Clip Users to change their HBOOT as far as I understand now
<FabianJ> Hey - I've just read this thread over there @xda http://bit.ly/pyvRnP, it says that S-OFF works from Legend's with HBOOT 1.0 and newer. But the Author of the topic already has S-OFF with XTC-Clip. So does it also work with normal Legends?
<attn1> no
<attn1> oh that
<attn1> yes
<attn1> but not hboot 1.0
[...]
<FabianJ> attn1, so there is still no possible way except the XTC Clip to get S-OFF on Legends with HBOOT 1.X
<attn1> XTC clip is one way.
<FabianJ> and the other way?
<attn1> but software, none that I know of
<attn1> xtc clip clones
<attn1> might work

Thank you.
Ok so, Just so I am clear, I have a Legend, it is S-OFF with an XTC Clip, it is also at HBOOT 1.01, will this file replace the current HBOOT with Alpharev's and what will be the version number after the replacement?
Why is alpha rev hboot with S-Off better than S-Ogg gained with XTC-clip? What are the diferences?
As far as I do understand it's better cause Alpharev HBOOT has the new Partition Layout (see BlaYo's HowTo Upgrade to HBOOT 1.0...).
The XTC Clip HBOOT is the >0.X HBOOT and this one could make troubles with some newer Android OS'es (I'm unsure if it's only Gingerbread or even FroYo)

One more question. IF I understand correct (I've searched for XTC Clip on interent), we can gain S-OFF on any hboot version (even 1.01) with this tool?

My Legend has HBOOT 1.01 and I used an XTC clip to get S-OFF.
Ok so, it worked, I now have the Pink AlphaRev logo and the HBoot version is 1.00.1000 SHIP S-OFF. I went from HBoot 1.01, and the phone seems to be working normally, awesome, thanks!
i unlocked my bootloader using htcdev.com but security on radio is still on so is there any way to get radio s-off
Revolutionary or xtc clip
u cant use revolutionary on hboot 2.0 and i dont have xtc clip
You could have mentioned that in your original post,would have saved us both some time.
your best bet : xtc clip.

Hello everyone,
my phone statement is;
1.54 hboot, S-ON, HTC Unlocked, 2.24.401.x FW.
I just found local service in my city for s-off on 1.54 hboot via javacard. I will use that service. And i have questions:
after getting s-off on 1.54;
- How can i downgrade hboot to 1.44? RUU is enough for this?
- Is there a any other method?
- Is Nandroid backups contain hboot part?
- Can i write super CID on 1.54 S-OFF?
- Can i delete "Tempered" flag when i gain s-off on hboot 1.54?
Thank you,

So you're going to pay for S-Off and then intentionally get rid of S-Off, and then upgrade, preventing you from gaining S-Off without paying again?
You know, it's probably best to leave it S-Off.
The OTA doesn't remove S-OFF, I went from 1.44 to 1.54 with no issues

Hi,
A couple of questions, here is my current situation:
ROM: Vipper 2.6
Cid:vodap001
S-on
Device : PN0710000
Boot loader 1.54.0000
Bootloader is unlocked and has the messaged TAMPERED. I need to send the phone back to HTC for repair as I have a display issue.
How do I get rid of the TAMPERED message, guessing reloocking the bootloader can be done via adb\fastboot ?
If the steps I need to do requires me to be S-OFF, I can send the phone to fonefunshop to get that completed.
I just need to know the steps I should take to achieve the above.
Also need a nandroid backup for CID: VODAP001 (anyone?)
If I manage to remove the TAMPERED message and get the bootloader to show as locked, do I need to change the CID number back to VODAP001 and do I need to go back to S-ON ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618
A good read for you :fingers-crossed:
The search option would have given you Mikes thread :highfive:
I should add there is no RUU for my CID. Also, instead of RELOCKED, can you get it to show LOCKED ?
Or does that not matter if sending the phone back for repair ?

You can only get it to show LOCKED if you're on hboot 1.44 and use revone to S-Off, then remove TAMPERED and change to LOCKED.

Yes, once you're S-Off you can downgrade using any RUU. But you can't S-Off 1.54 at the moment (unless you know someone with a JavaCard)

You might want to read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541082
If you read, then you will understand that the RUU you want to execute need to be compatible with both your CID, MID and hboot version.
So yes its possible, but you need to be s-off to change CID/MID and to downgrade hboot if required.
and please don't start 2 different threads for relatively the same questions.
Hope it help

yes, use revone tool for hboot 1.44 or use rumrunner tool for hboot 1.54 and 1.55
This is the first thing listed in the thread I linked above.....
First you need to be S-Off, this will NOT work with S-On!!!
A) If you’re on hboot 1.44 use revone to get S-Off: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2314582
B) If you’re on hboot 1.54/1.55 use rumrunner to get S-Off: http://rumrunner.us/ and http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2487888

I can't answer that cause I'm not familiar with rumrunner since I s-off'd my One when it was on 1.44 hboot with revone. In theory rumrunner 0.5.0 should work on all international variant with hboot 1.54 and up except verizon model that need a different version of rumrunner. Maybe you should ask help directly on rumrunner thread for that step or search the forum for similar issue with s-off on 1.55. Hope you will find out.

I went back and forth with rumrunner and moonshine while using a rom 4.3 GPE ROM with twrp and it kept failing. ultimately installed a 4.1.2 stock then used revone and it worked wonderfully. I was able to remove the tampered flag, unlock the stock bootloader and flash the GPE 4.3 and receive the updates. I also only have a mac so i was limited in not being able to run .exe's.

Tampered flag is just that, a flag. It doesnt hinder anything, just a pop up for "Warranty" purposes. The flag pops up when you unlock the bootloader but when you get S-Off you can remove the flag.
Since you have access to windows i would go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428276 and find the .exe RUU for your area. Just get into your bootloader, select fastboot usb and run the .exe. Pick the lowest firmware available so you can ensure that you get the 1.44 hboot.

The zip can only be used with S-Off where as the exe is designed to be used to return a phone to stock with S-On.
Just get into fastboot and run the exe, it should do the rest for you. It will wipe the entire phone, but as far as I'm concerned, a blank phone is better than an unusable one.
I'm not sure if the hboot makes a difference, but mine downgraded when I flashed an older RUU.
Once you get the older hboot and firmware, you may have to unlock your bootloader again through HTC Dev, then S-Off. Once your S-Off unlocking your bootloader is much easier.

If you want to run a GPE RUU.exe your phone MUST have CID compatible (BS_US0001) with GPE and MID: PN0712000
you can check that with this command:
Code:
fastboot oem readcid
fastboot oem readmid
if they doesn't match, you MUST be S-OFF to change them
If your device is currently a DEV edition, you should already have PN0712000 as MID so the only concern is that CID need to match GPE RUU
You should post your
Code:
fastboot getvar-all
and remove imei and sn so it will be easier to see what options you have.
