Hi all,
I want to know how to upgrade HBOOT version for my phone. My phone was S-OFF and HBOOT version is so old. I want upgrade it to install BlackRose HBOOT because BlackRose HBOOT need HBOOT version from 1.13.xxx up to can install it.
Any suggestion are very welcome
Thanks in advance!
P/s: Sorry for my bad English!

What version is your hboot an the moment
Not a fancy android word lol
And there is not much point upgrading your hboot, we do not know of any performance improvements
Many (including me) are still on revolutionary, like you

Thank you
My HBOOT version is: 0.96.2000. So how to upgrade it?
Thanks in advance

If you want blackrose, please refer to the blackrose related threads

Dude! I know it is the latest one cause I've been searching about it for a whole day. but, what is the benefit of it. I mean I know what is Rom, Kernel, etc. I just still don't know what an hboot really represents! Can you tell me a short guide?:good:

Its basically just compatibility
Many roms need blackrose to flash, (dont ask why)
Its better to have latest to be on the safe side.

If you go back to S-ON you may not be able to get S-OFF again.

Yeah I am aware but my question is if I can go from S-OFF to S-ON on 4.2.2, not the oposite.

Updating to 4.2.2 will change your hboot so probably not until a new exploit is found

Yes. Once you have s-off you keep it. So only go back to s-on if you're returning for warranty purposes, or you may not get it back again.

So there are kernels only for S-OFF ?

Custom roms no problem
Custom kernels maybe some require S-OFF to flash so read the OP to be sure
Also you will need a custom recovery

Not that I'm aware of. I meant you need to have a kernel that's compatible with your ROM or you'll end up stuck on bootup.

You're s-off or s-on?
You can't restore the phone as stock if you don't have the S-OFF, maybe you will be Relocked and the warranty can't accept your phone

Wait, when you boot in bootloader you can read s-on or s-off?
However, you can't push the 4.2.2 because there isn't any ruu atm.
So, you can restore your phone only if you're s-off...
And wait, is unlocked from HTCDev?

If you do not know what s-off or on is bro I would suggest you do some major reading before you attempt it

There is no RUU for that firmware, unfortunately, and you can't s-off either. I'm afraid you're stuck until a 4.3 RUU is released for WWE.

Hi bro might be a good idea to hit the thanks button for the Bros that are helping out

Bro, you can restore a stock nandroid bro. Then you can flash a stock recovery bro. The tampered will be gone, but it will still show relocked, so HTC will know you did something to it.

S-off

I know this question is directed more towards the T-Mobile version but I was hoping to find guidance here as well. I have a One that currently has an unlocked bootloader and is rooted. The hboot is version 1.57. I've been trying to get the s-off for a while now but I'm not having any luck. I tried downgrading to different roms but I don't think that was the answer. I'm guessing it's because of my hboot version. Is there anyway to downgrad my hboot without already having the s-off? I've been doing a lot of research but I can't find anything that applies to the T-Mobile version and in my specific situation. I would appreciate it if someone could help me out with this or let me know that it is totally impossible to do right now. I've been working on this for days but I'm determined haha
