bymistake i have removed the ROM from my mobile.. and now i have nothing on phone..

what next should i do ? i can't find a stock ROM / OS ..

i am only getting bootloader menu nothing else..

Kindly anyone guide me.. :(
[HTC One S] skinzy98:
What do you mean you have removed it. It should be easy just to flash a new ROM. I know the Samsung vibrant has Odin and you can return it to stock I'm not sure about one s
[HTC One S] diabolusmiles:
We currently do not have S-off for the one S
[HTC One S] icode919:
means the tool has an option for removing ROM that i clicked by mistake.. and it removed the stock ROM or OS ...

also, should i flash it with new ROM and it will work ?

---------- Post added at 03:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 PM ----------

while i have removed the ROM so how to put file on my mobile HTC One S ? when there is no ROM and no OS ?

---------- Post added at 04:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 PM ----------

after putting file on sdcard i am now getting error as:

unable to mount "/data" (tw_mount)

rest all i can mount.. please help !
[HTC One S] skinzy98:
I'm not sure what the recovery is but when I have that on my vibrant I have to go into recovery and go to mounts and storage and force data to mount by clicking on it
[HTC One S] sharik21:
after i got to cmd and put on the commend for fast boot and it says waiting for device for unlocking
[HTC One S] icode919:
have u connected USB to PC and device ?

Also, remember you are in Bootloader -> Fastboot

Good luck !
[HTC One S] AndroidAutobot:
thank you kindly good sir (OP). This worked like a charm and was a piece of cake aside from the horrendous servers at htcdev (damn them!! it took me four effing hours =L). Now I'm finally able to move forward ha ha =)
[HTC One S] Eddy130306:
I need help. I flashed the recovery and now when i want to reboot my phone it always goes to recovery. what happened? :(
[HTC One S] gazknight:
start again

I suggest that you relock the bootloader and flash a ruu and then begin again. The chances are that you cant mount the sd card. if i hit problems then i begin with a clean ruu .

And use this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1789812
[HTC One S] Eddy130306:
How do I relock the bootloader and flash a RUU? I'm new to this as this is my first time rooting an htc phone with a locked bootloader. Thank you for the fast reply.

I can not get into the bootloader. I have tried manually and through ADB. No luck.

Just downloaded an RUU

EDIT: Did a hard reset and it eventually booted back up again. I think the problem was that my phone kept thinking it was charging. When I turned it on it would show the amber light. The other problem was CWM. The phone always goes CWM if it is charging. Right now I'm too scared to reflash another recovery. Maybe in the future. I suggest not using CWM. Have always had problems with it on all my phones. Thanks.

Once I root and unlock, can I use One S's micro USB for on ps3 controller or to hook up with OTG USB to microSD (have it's own power source) for extra storage?
[HTC One S] Orical:
No it won't work that way, the powersource will work as long as the PS3 is on. You can transfer files back and forth between them as long as it's music and movies, pics but apps won't save.

I'm new with One S. My brother bought one.

After doing all levels I unlocked my phone then I had installed Clockwork mod. And then reoot it.

But I want to ask you is there any possibility to install stock rom? Or I can update my phone? Cause when I try to update original update by HTC it gives "can't mount internalsdcard" error.

How can I update it normaly? thnx...!!!
[HTC One S] :
You can't do HTC updates with unlocked bootloader. You would need to relock and install the appropriate RUU. Then update and relock. May have to flash stock recovery also. Check out the Developer section here. There should be guides. And Hassoon's toolkit there may help too. Never did it so not experienced at the RUU process. However, since you are rooted, make a nandroid of phone and copy your sdcard content to PC before trying anything. Also, the custom roms here get updated faster than HTC will. As Jelly Bean is already on some roms with some JB 4.2 features. None of which is available for the One S from HTC yet.
[HTC One S] ravenchad:

can't unlock bootloader

hi guys, back to HTC again (what a mistake!!!)...

Tried unlock bootloader via HTCDEV but no joy (see attachment) and also can't add widget on home screen. Phone is only 2 days old... Should I try hard reset to solve the widget issue?

Oh!!! one important detail : it's from Vodafone and branded...
[HTC One S] :
You didn't highlight the correct length of text. Either too little or too much. Look closer at text and example.

On widgets if on sense rom--go to apps and clear cache and data for htc sense widgets. Am on CM10 so forget exactly the name for it--
[HTC One S] Rexton270:
Hi there, I cut the whole text as on page 9... Might be that space is counting??? or its operator branded and thus unable to unlock??? btw, did hardreset, it helped with the widget but now its very laggy... when coming from idle or press the home button it takes up to 10 seconds when home screen appear...

Just checked the string, it's exactly as it should be from left arrow on the top to right arrow on the bottom...

[HTC One S] disiz:
Hello, I have to send back my phone to HTC for warranty, I think I must relock bootloader and flash a RUU.

If I understand, first I have to flash the last RUU, and next I just have to relock the bootloader with this "fastboot oem lock", and it will show "locked" and not "relocked" ?? And then the phone will look as 100% stock phone ? :)

Thanks.
[HTC One S] Orical:
I think its the opposite you oem lock then format the device and ruu. It's been a while but I think that's the way.

Click on my Nexus 4 sig, post no 2,standalone adb and fastboot. Use it.
[HTC One S] disiz:
Thanks for the answer, I've found some guide to re-stock the phone, and first you have to fastboot with new boot and recovery, then relock bootloader, and next the official RUU :)
[HTC One S] Darknites:
I only had to relock the bootloader for a RUU to work.
[HTC One S] disiz:
If you install a RUU, it will unroot your phone, but I think it will stay unlocked if you don't lock it with fastboot oem lock :)
[HTC One S] :
Appreciate your help here. Can I use your link for me or others if needed? I may have to go with an IMac for awhile and may not install SDK. I have the fastboot files but not the standalone adb--

[HTC One S] Darknites:
Em what, a RUU wont work with an unlocked bootloader.
[HTC One S] :
I think OP is saying once you unlock phone it will stay that way till you relock--of course--;)

But, may be confusing unroot and unlock--not sure

There is an app called Root Keeper--I believe. And folks say it will keep root during ruu. However, if you have figured out how to do an ruu, re-rooting is simple--:)
[HTC One S] disiz:
OK, I didn't know :) You want to re-stock your one S ? As I said, you have to fastboot with new boot and recovery, then relock bootloader, and next the official RUU. If you want, I can explain more :)
[HTC One S] Darknites:
Lol wtf I don't want to run a RUU and again you wrong I have used a RUU and all I did to get it to work was to relock the bootloader, there is no need to flash stock boot.img or recovery.

[HTC One S] Goatshocker:
Hey. Just got my One S yesterday, and today i set out rooting it.

I followed all the steps, and the rooting went fine.

However, I cant get "adb remount" to work, it gives me "operation not permitted".

"adb shell su" works fine, but not adb remount.

What have I missed? I kinda need remount working for my Quick ADB pusher program :P

A custom ROM would probably fix it, but Id rather find out exactly whats preventing adb remount from working on the stock ROM.

None of my other devices have this issue.

The S got the latest OTA updates (updated today), unlocked bootloader, CWM Touch, SuperSU 0.99.

edit: after vacuuming google for a few hours, it seems default.prop needs to be changed - which gets overwritten by boot.img every time you restart... bleh, annoying...

[HTC One S] :
more info needed

Recovery?

Which Rom?

Which hboot?

Did you do full wipe of Data/Both Caches/and System 3X

Maybe just not a complete wipe, or depending on your hboot you may need to fastboot the boot image

TWRP recovery and 2.3.3.0 seems to work the best for me

I gotta run out soon on family stuff. But, if you give us the above info, should be fixable.

Also, if you don't--read the OP pages carefully and the last 20 pages of the thread of the rom you are going to flash. I do that all the time and on occasion, like yesterday, was about to flash a rom that the latest version was no good and not mentioned in OP. Found it several pages back from end of thread.
