ok - i got the s-off patch now.

Where do I get the hboot version that supports

fastboot boot?htcdev.com. in its unlocked state,the htcdev hboot 1.02.0000 will allow the additional fastboot commands

I have hboot 0.92 on Inc1.

I'll redo the downgrade to 2.2 again and attempt

the standalone s-off.zip patch. I'm concerned about

my current state (hboot locked + s-on) and the

restore from CWM recovery 5.0.2.0 that reflash

put there, may not have properly restored the

restricted partitions. The 2.3.4 os boots fine and

seems to be running, but from what I read, it

shouldn't have restored boot, system and recovery

partitions.

I was left with a rooted but s-on/locked system

The 0.92 hboot doesn't appear to support the

new fastboot commands or adb commands related

to htcdev.com lock / unlock functions.

no,the .92 does not support any eng hboot commands. and it is not locked or unlocked. it is either s-on,or s-off. it has no htcdev compatibility,and no ability to be unlocked other than tuening off the radio secure flag.

I think I'm supposed to run

zergRush to root 2.3.4

then push the flash_image

to /data/local (the /sdcard files are already there)

cd /data/local

chmod 0755 flash_image

./flash_image misc /sdcard/mtd0.img

reboot bootloader to run the 2.2 PB31IMG.zip

that should be 2.2 stock

(rerun zergRush to temp root)

adb shell rm /sdcard/PB31IMG.zip

adb reboot bootloader

get fastboot USB

fastboot flash recovery 5.0.2.0-cwm-recovery.img

adb reboot recovery

then flash the s-off.zip from recovery?

after reboot to bootloader I should have s-off, right?

umm... no.

you seem to be making this overly complicated,and im not sure where your finding the info about not restoring the system/boot/recovery. htcdev unlocked will not alow restoring of boot form recovery,but thats apples and oranges to the .92 hboot. again,your not s-on and locked,your simply s-on. at any rate it would be easy enuff to test. make a nandroid,take note of the kernel,then flash something else. make sure the kernel changes. restore your backup. make sure the kernel changes again.

im confused now on what youve done to this point. i thot you had downgraded and run unrevoked 3.32 on froyo. but now youre saying youre on GB,and im not sure how how you got there. i think youve just restored a backup,and as such are still on the froyo baseband. if this is the case,all you need to do is flash the forever patch in recovery. the OS doesnt really matter. whats important is that you are 1)rooted 2)have recovery to flash the patch,and 3)are on the compatible froyo baseband.

if you have run an RUU to get back to GB and re-rooted,then you will need to downgrade again to get back to froyo,and compatible radios. however ive no idea how you came up with those directions :p if youre rooted,you just need to run the adb commands to rewrite the misc image and run the froyo RUU again,and then youll need to run unrevoked again on froyo. the fastboot commands will not work with the .92 hboot,and the s-on will not let you install any unsigned files anyway.

after youve run unrevoked again,just flash the patch in recovery if unrevoked fails to turn s-off by default.

edit:

here is the htcdev hboot for inc 1:
