Does this rom uses the stock TouchWiz launcher? If so, I think this one is better, it doesn't need the tw-framework, you can install as a normal app, looks good and the file size is small.

Install the i5800-based update B02, it fits better the screen.

I don't think it uses that launcher but slaid will tell it :P once he came back :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Android Development] FMAranda:
I think he uses, because inside the ROM there's the tw-framework file.

[HTC Desire S] fulbert:
Hi,

I can't turn on my phone which still on fastboot usb mode.

Phone is S-ON and not rooted, has hboot 0.98.0002.

I can't use RUU to flash my phone because the misc version is 12.10.401.5. I'm trying to change it but i cannot. Also, I can't use recovery because I've done a full wipe.

When I use commands "adb devices", there is no device. But, When I used FastbootCommanderV.1.51, I can see my device.

I can see now on phone:

***Security warning***

Please, help me.

Use RUU 2.10.401.8
[HTC Desire S] fulbert:
I tried RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.8 but I've Error 140 about bootloader.
[HTC Desire S] fulbert:
Problems come from bootloader which is locked. I've not recovery mode and can't do anything because phone is S-ON and not rooted.

If only I could change my misc_version ...
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
To change it use this procedure

Give some info how did you came to this situation. It is strange to have this version with the old booltoader.
[HTC Desire S] fulbert:
Yes, I want to give you more details but I'm not fluent in english. So I try to tell you better I can.

Phone had Endymion v3.1 rom. I noticed today that I couldn't take pictures. So I try to install another rom. After format all partition (without sdcard) and a full wipe, I flash hboot with original hboot 0.98.002. The phone has rebooted by mistake (poor handling). Unfortunately, phone become S-ON and can't do anything.
[HTC Desire S] fulbert:
I look the procedure but don't understand:

1. I downloaded only zergRush.zip and copy file into zip into c:\downgrade. Is it correct?

2. I can't connect phone in debug mode. How can I do?

Thanks.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Wow. Anyway there is no undo here :)

1) Try to S-OFF with Revolutionary

2) Flash this hboot

3) Download a RUU for your region from here and run it on your PC

For step 3 is best to be sure that the RUU is the proper one. Connect your phone to PC (you need fastboot configured - see in my signature). Then type in command prompt:

fastboot getvar all

paste the output here
[HTC Desire S] fulbert:
Hi, the output of command:

As I told you, I can't use revolutionary. When I try, I've this message:

"Waiting for device...".

When I try to flash the hboot, I have this message: "error: device not found"

For RUU, I've tried with these RUU:

RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.11_M_release_177977_signed.exe

Tnx.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
You cannot flash hboot with S-ON. DO not try to flash European RUU either. Yours is RUU_Saga_Bouygues_FR_1.31.1020.2_Radio_20.28c.30.0805U_38.03.02.16_M_release_179953_signed.exe

Since you deleted everything and no adb your last resort is a goldcard. Find someone with the same software version as you to give you a cid number. Make a Goldcard put it in your phone, run the RUU on the PC and hope for the best
[HTC Desire S] fulbert:

same problem buy a xtc clip

hi fullbert

i had the same problem as you are having now,i also did everything the same way as you did ,i even went to http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=revolutionary but no one even took the time to answer/help me, think there are only bots in there. so the last thing i could do was buy me a xtc clip and i managed to get my phone S-OFF again.

problem with the RUU roms is that you cant install because of the INFOversion-main: 12.10.401.5,it always says main version is older.
[HTC Desire S] fulbert:
So there is no solution other than xtc-clip?

People know that it's a problem with INFOversion-main,so our developpers have perphaps something about it to solve my problem, isn't it?
[HTC Desire S] bad-wimpie:
well no solution i tried worked and i have done a lot of flashing and couldnt use adb commands as fastboot did work but got security problem or remote not allowed main version is older and i was S-ON but i hoop the devs can help you .
[HTC Desire S] fulbert:
I hope and wait because it's will be difficult for me to get ou use xtc-clip before july 2012. So, I wait another solution.
[HTC Desire S] fulbert:
always nothing ...
[HTC Desire S] fulbert:
is there any way to activate degub mode by fastboot?
[HTC Desire S] jneapan:
I had almost the exact same problem after trying to flash a RUU to get back to stock. I had previously flashed a radio from an OTA update, which changed my mainver to 11.xxxx, which is obviously a higher version number than any RUU available and couldn't flash any. I was stuck on hboot/fastboot, with no recovery and S-ON. So here's how I solved it.

First you need to flash something with a main version greater than yours, luckily you can find this in the files from the OTA updates (Here's one with version > 13, should be good for you: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=1GIKWTWJ ).

Next, extract firmware.zip and place it in the same folder as your fastboot.exe file (in the android sdk platform-tools usually, if it's not there look for a version of it on google).

Then in fastboot usb mode type the following commands into a command window:

fastboot erase cache

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip recovery.zip

You might get an error when doing this (something about "flush image"). It's ok, just run the last command again until it works (it did on the second try for me).

After this, if the flash was successful you should now have a fully functional hboot (it should be the new 2.00.something hboot which a purple title that says "LOCKED") (still S-ON and no recovery or rom, but the hboot is important).

After this, go to http://htcdev.com and follow all the steps to unlock your bootloader. After the process is done your bootloader is unlocked (similar to S-OFF but with some restrictions). Now you can flash a custom recovery (attached is the lastest 4ext touch img, just put it in the same folder as the fastboot). In fastboot usb mode type:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Now you should have a working recovery, and flash a custom ROM (I recommend Endymion or Hyperion at first, since they have a kernel that can work with the new hboot you just installed.)

Once you're inside your newly installed ROM you should have access to adb commands and be able to downgrade hboot so you can S-OFF again or even install a new RUU. Check this thread out for more useful info on how to downgrade. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1318919

Please let us know if this worked for you.
[HTC Desire S] fulbert:
Hi,

jneapan, you give me hope. I hope ... I hope. 7 days that I can't use my phone. You give me hope.

But, I don't know how to do this:

I put OTA file on memory card and renamed it as PG88IMG.zip. But, nothing. Phone cannot flash with.

So I can I execute this instruction?

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] jneapan:
The instructions on how to do that were in the following sentences. The file you downloaded from the link has a firmware.zip file inside it. Extract that to your platform-tools folder inside the folder where you have the android sdk(or where you have your fastboot binary). Then reboot into fastboot mode (take out battery carefully and then insert it back and turn on the device with volume down + power key).

Then open a command window and go to the folder where you have your fastboot binary and type the commands I gave you in my previous post and continue the instructions.

Yes ... yes ... yes ... all it's ok now. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I renamed firmware.zip to PG88IMG.zip and flashed my phone.

After, I try your instructions but got this errors:

So, I try to unlock bootloader and I was finally able to do.

I then installed recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-saga and now I'm restoring my phone.

Thank you jneapan.

Thank you all. You are the best!

Happy New Year ... no problems with our phones ... Moreover, many more good things :)

Hi there,

I ran into the same problem as fulbert and just found this thread. Seems, not all hope is lost. I am only missing a working link to the file jneapan mentioned here. Could you find another place to upload that, please? Or explain, where to get it or what else could fulfill that special purpose.

Alas, this OTA contains an image.zip which does not has a higher main version than 12, so this does not help.

This a now a cry for help to jneapan to reupload your special version with main version 13.

I am still totally stuck, so any help greatly appreciated.

That actually worked. I took the firmware.zip from that OTA and flashed it as PG88IMG.zip. Thanks a bunch, bad-wimpie.

However, now I seem to be stuck with the htcdev unlock process just like chargetw.

All went well with that procedure up to step 13. I can flash my unlock token and get this screen

.

I can move between yes and no with the volume rocker, but unfortunately, nothing happens when I choose yes. I can press the power button in any way I like, nothing. The button itself works, because I can choose no and get a nice reboot.

After booting I see this screen:

*** LOCKED ***

*** Security Warning ***

Hi Patrick,

I have successfully repaired, you can try this file.

[HTC Desire S] Patrick-Mav:
Cool, got the file. What is the correct way of using it?

Thanks

Patrick
[HTC Desire S] tpbklake:
Extract the firmware.zip file from it and copy it to your SD card and rename it PG88IMG.zip.

Reboot into bootloader and it should get flashed.

You then should be able to proceed with the unlock_code.bin step.
[HTC Desire S] Patrick-Mav:
Yeah, I'm back

Thanks tpbklake,

since I did this already with the other OTA, I wasn't sure if I just need to do it again or something else. Anyhow, it worked. With this OTA extracted image.zip flashed, I was finally able to pull through the htcdev unlock process.

Now I am stuck within the hboot downgrading process, but I haven't read all the available threads about that so far. I will continue there.

Make a GOLDCARD
[HTC Desire S] x24:
Hi, I'm also stuck in this situation. I've reverted back to stock RUU for several times without problem. This time I flashed radio, and didn't aware that it change my misc version, thus I'm stuck in fastboot mode with S-ON when trying to flash back to original RUU to downgrade radio...

I want to ask if I could use a goldcard created from other desire s, because in its current state I couldn't check the cid. If it is possible, what are the requirements that have to be met on both my desire s and the other desire s that would be used to create the goldcard?

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] dmatik:
You can do Goldcard on any Android device, even if it is not HTC. It still will work on yours.

However it will not help you with the wrong misc_version, for this you have to use a method described in one of the posts in index thread.
[HTC Desire S] foX2delta:
It will help him, cause he can't flash the Europe RUU with a misc version higher than 12, but he needs a gold card to do that.
[HTC Desire S] x24:
Hi, thx for the responds. I've manage to create the goldcard. I'm now downloading the latest europe RUU i can find, and will flash it.

EDIT : I tried RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.8_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_225161_signed, but it has 2.10.xxxx main version. Downloading RUU​_Saga​_S_HTC​_Europe​_2.10​.401​.9 right now.

Which RUU is having main version higher than 12? I cannot download the ota file from previous pages because the link won't open.

EDIT : I cannot find anything with version greater than 12. I've googled like crazy, and cannot find the OTA zip file for 2.10.401.5 from 1.47 (I red somewhere that it have 12.10.401.5 main version). I can only find OTA for 2.10.401.4 which has 11.10.401.4 as main version. If anyone have the file I need or the file from previous pages, would you please re upload it? I need it desperately to unbrick my phone...

Thank you so very much.

EDIT : Finally got my desire s running again. The link from chargetw just work, yesterday it didn't work, maybe problems with my ISP or something else. A very valuable lesson. Now I keep a goldcard in a safe place, and I will always check my misc version every time I'm going to do something related to RUU, OTA, or S-ON.

Hi,

first thanks a lot for your help bad-wimpie, is very much appreciated.

But I think I'm stuck.

- With both files you attached i got the cid problem.

- have created a goldcard but that did not help

- have tried the HtcDev unlock but "fastboot oem get_identifier_token" is not supported by HBOOT 0.98.0002

This are the interesting lines in the output of fastboot getvar :
