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 ?

i was using my phone since 4 months wht s-off and root and there are no problems. just 2 days before i rooted one of the ics roms and got an error message and phone went ofline so i made a restorewhit cwm and phone came back online. after this steps i did supercid and s-on to my phone. now telephone works correctly but i cant get any updates or even i cant make my phone s-off again because of it says hboot version is older than 1.20.xxxxxx
short for long about phone
- its working
-no problem whit general usage
-i cant do s-off
- cant get any updates
- sometimes when i open close actions it opens whit bootloader.
question how can i get my hboot to 1.17xxxx or 1.18.xxx again please help me
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

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.

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

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

appreciate it! I am sure that the code that unlocks it is unique but the dialcode to enter said password is probably the same on each device.
So the answer is there is no dial code. They handle it all on their end. The only thing I had to do after calling them was restart my phone.
I just got all my details since Sprint was a huge douche about it and they refused to unlock it.
So I paid $13 htcsimunlockcode at gmail / HTCunlockingService and they sent me all the code info to do it but i get nothing that pops up to enter the code. It asks new sim then i select AT&T and that's it.... doesn't change a thing... still Sprint service not AT&T

You do not need to buy unlock code.
there is sim unlock method posted on xda which works great on 4.3 and below not sure about kitkat thou. but if your device is s-off you can always install 1.29 RUU and sim unlock your phone.

4. started to do a reseach, but i'm stuck. my phone proreties are :

5. did managed to Unlock Bootloader , get root (SU) , and recovry util TWRP.
6. can a just flash a new rom (say ViperOne) and the sim unlock will be OPEN ????
7. some people told me - that a new rom wo'nt open the sprint phone to other-than-sprint SIMcards , so i tried ways to "unlock".
8. i tried the Sieempi, is generating for frre the config.dat , i boot the phone with OTG usb cable , didn't worked - got errors "failed ...."

Hello BD619.
Thanks for your advise, I just want to make sure i understand it.
You advise me to falsh a http://sprint_one_stock_rooted_odex_4.06.651.4.zip/ ROM ,
Fisrt - will it OVERRIDE the sprint sim check ? meaning i could put inside the phone a GSM sim (not a sprint one)?
Second - I have HBOOT 1.57, S-on , rooted phone , etc (as i stated in first post), so now i only flash the 4.06 rom file ?
no need for firmware RUU ? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658910) ?
Better if you can direct me to a full guide for flashing that rom (when actually downgrading from 4.4.2)
Thnak you again for your time and efforts

Use that rom to get s-off with firewater.
Once s-off you can do whatever else you nee to do.

I got error meaage from firewater

so will flashing the 4.0.1 rom will also change my kernel ? (i understand that the kernel is a linux code duffernrt from the rom - which is 'android' code)
so - to sum it up :
1. flash the 4.0.1 rom
2. run firewater to get s-off
3. ??? now will my phone become sim free /unlock ? i.e. supporting GSM sim cards not from the US ?

Hey bro. Thanks for your promt reply. I am so rookie on this stuff and so i am finding your words hard to understand. I think if i can show you some screenshots to my htcs bootloader menu and software version then you might help me with proper guidance and where to find the proper rom for my device. Thanks. If we can connect via facebook or skype then i can show you the images and you help me finally. Thanks a lot. Please let me know what you think.
FYI: I have no idea if my device is harman kardon rom or not. Also if my device is rooted or not.

As U haven't wipe ur radio/firmware, so we can hope it will work.may be some one tweaked ur device to make it carier unlocked by using super CID. It's most common now a days.which results in poor 3G connectivity/lack of 4G connectivity specialy in sprint devices. Plz try to update using this process and if u r not officialy carier unlocked (getting sprint's official permission which costs some money though) after updating ur phone will be again carier locked.though this chance is less than 10% but as my duty,I am just informing u the reality.

Unlocking r of two method/official and bypassing official (which disiables OTA and other advantages. As htc one m8 gets update from carrier rather than htc itself,so after officialy unlocking htc one m8, u won't get OTA for updating.u have to manualy flash it but it won't relock ur phone,but if it's unlocked by any tweak (by using a sim or something like that) it will again lock ur phone with carrier after updating
