I seem to be having a problem with using Sense Home on my Desire 510 after converting back to Nonsense ROM 1.04. Every time I try to log into Sense Home after installing it from Google Play, it tells me that it failed to connect to the HTC servers. Is there a certain library I need to install to my system? If so, can and how would I go about getting this from RaptorROM?

Why would you want to install sense on a non sense based rom? You're better off going back to stock.

But that's the thing... I don't have a backup of my stock ROM, and I don't have access to the proper tools to reflash my stock recovery and RUU.

You don't need a computer! You can flash a recovery by using Flashify from the play store! And after flashing recovery you can then flash the roms from within the recovery app itself.. No Computer needed AT ALL.. But you do need to make sure you download the correct stuff to flash so you don't make a mistake and end up needing a PC.

I was directed to the HTC website where I can download an exe that will automate the process for me, but other than that, I couldn't seem to find a flashable or restorable zip of the vanilla sense ROM for Cricket Wireless.

I usually used to just hand everyone the URL Addresses to whatever they wanted but at this point I realize that I'm not helping anyone learn to use the search function by doing that so instead I actually look and then confirm or deny whether there's something available or not.

1. I use arhd's super wipe tool, available from his thread in development section, even for other ROMs and it works fine, or u can do it all manually in recovery.
2. Yes
3. Flash through recovery. Download zip to root of sd card using pc, boot into recovery and follow instructions...simples

I think u need to be s-off before u can root, but I may be wrong. U might aswell s-off as u need this to flash custom ROMs and therefore use ROM manager, as this needs superuser rights which u get with s-off and root.

On the topic of both starter questions and installations, why won't ROMs flash with s-off? What's the big difference between that and s-on and why does one void our warranty with HTC?

You mean why can't we flash ROMs with S-ON! Because this means security on. Basically HTC went and locked their bootloader on most earlier devices and therefore they cannot be hacked. The AlphaRev team have successfully managed to develop a tool to achieve this and enable users to gain root access, install ClockWorkMod recovery (a way of installing custom ROMs and also taking a snap shot of ur current ROM is you mess up and need something to go back to) custom themes etc, etc.
HTC have apparently learnt the error of their ways and promised not to lock the bootloaders in their newer shipped models, however they don't particularly like us messing around with it hence voiding the warranty if you do this...but it is possible to go back to S-ON like nothing ever happened using AlphaRev.
Hope this answers your question, now stick to the topic....
Ha, only joking
Of course I know I need to e-off my device be4 roo/flash rom. What I want to know is : do I need to s-off before using rom manager.

ROM Manger needs root access, so yes you need S-OFF so you can root and install ROM Manager

Is there any way you could help me understand why Moonshine isn't working for me? I'm on 1.08, unlocked bootloader, rooted, and I have CWM (not sure if the custom recovery matters). I plug it in with the OEM Cable and USB Debugging on as instructed. However, when I run Moonshine, it goes as far as Test 3 and then it starts running through several rows of dots.
Edit: Scratch that. I figured out that all I needed to do was turn off my Firewall. So, now that I have S-Off, how do I go about flashing it back to the Stock ROM/Recovery?

Since you have s-off I don't know why you want a stock ROM/recovery. Either the v1.08 or v1.04 zips will install with CWM (not TRWP last I tried). http://www.androidruu.com/?developer=Myst

Hey guys im new to the forum, i got this phone from ebay, its just what i need, btw i like dev so maybe thats why i picked a htc, well the thing is i installed jmz's kernel amazing stuff but i wanted to go back to stock kernel to try differents roms, im s-off with ub and using cwm, i tried to compile the kernel source (i use ubuntu 13.04) with no luck at all, it looks like its about the toolchains, but well is there a kernel that i can just install it with cwm as a zip?
pd: sorry bout my english im from Chile :highfive:

Hi Im having the same issue, my phone has an unlocked bootloader. I tried to install 2 different kind of 4.4 GPe roms and both times its restarting at the setup screen, where it ask for the language to use. Is S-Off different from unlocked bootloader and did the s-off with rumrunner fixed the issue? Thanks
I have s-off and have been but I couldn't install any of the 4.4 Roms and it caused crazy bootloop where recovery wasn't even an option thru fastboot or anything. Had to ruu out. Miserable day yesterday with a g2x lol. Think I might try to run the ruu for GE 4.4 tonight if I find an easy how to so I can play with 4.4 too.
I'm thinking it has to do with the software date too since I was s-off and got a fail also. I was on the original 1.xx T-Mobile software.

Hey! Yes, unlocked bootloader and s-off are different, here's a link to the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2487888
First, if you can sideload a ROM, do that and enable USB debugging on it before you run the tool.
Then, all you have to do is click the download link, download the 0.5.0 zip, extract it, then run the .exc file with admin permissions on your windows 7 computer. Be patient, it WILL take a while.

Hey guys i just rooted my HTC Vivid and when i go to install a custom rom which was the CM10 Nightly rom it would get stuck on the cynagen boot logo. Also im using TWRP 2.6 just to let you know. I rooted with superuser 1.25. Thanks please if you can give me a step by step tutorial i would really appreciate it! If you can give me a custom rom link as well! Thanks!
Did you do a full wipe? Data, cache, dalvik all need to be wiped. Did you unzip the ROM and make a copy of the boot.img file and flash it in fastboot? Are you s-off or s-on?

Alright rignfool. If you can still help me I would gladly appreciate it. I recently flashed the kitkat 4.4 rom and whenever I'm for example listening to music on this app called rocketplayer and I go to the homescreen it switches the music input from the headphones to the internal phone speaker. I also tried out a different app but it was the same problem. Furthermore, whenever I used the built in app which is apollo it says dsp manager has stopped working and then says you can blame the split screen. Ofcourse, the split screen isnt designed for the Htc Vivid that I have but how do i stop the problem that im having?

You don't need s-off to flash kernels and roms all you need to do is root the phone... Busybox will not work on a stock kernel ever because the stock kernel is write protected. Where are you from so I can give you instructions on rooting the phone... I need to know if you're 32 or 64 bit.

Nope no s-off required. Just flash that kernel with an app called flashify from the play store since you're already rooted and Busybox will work.
So pretty much any kernel then :
