Is there a link to the stock radio .16---08 if one wants to flash back

I extracted a couple nandroids and some roms but can't find the radio.img--:o

EDIT: NVM got it from Cyanogen site
[HTC One S] frickinjerms:
will the radio zip work with twrp? just got my one s today :D
[HTC One S] jamesgg:
Anyone find a working solution to applying the OTA zip file. When applying the update thru official software update manager, my phone asks to reboot, but it ends up going to cwm recovery with a update error message.

My phone has an unlocked bootloader with the stock Rom. Want to update w/out relocking.
[HTC One S] :
it should, with twrp you don't need to run commands

you have to relock
[HTC One S] seanyuan62:
Anyone getting a wifi error after they update? I'm not even rooted or anything in fact I just opened the phone up today and installed the update. When it boots up I can't turn my wifi on and it says error next to it....

I hope I'm not the only one haha
[HTC One S] fabiane79:
I found the problem, the reason will not install...

if you did a TMOUS RUU has a build of 1.53.531.16_R2 CL47441 release-keys and the update will not come through and will not install OTA

STOCK ROM for original TMOUS is 1.53.531.16 CL47441 release-keys once I did a Nandroid I was able to download the OTA even if I relock the phone and copy back the recovery.img it will show Tampered...

The update will go halfway and will install

The only way is to install TMOUS RUU of a build of 1.53.531.16 CL47441 release-keys.

My buddy has HTC untouched he is coming tomorrow, I will do the update and install the OTA on his phone once I do that I will unlock his phone install CWM and do a Nandroid backup. I will post on the Dev
[HTC One S] frickinjerms:
thank you sir :D and +1 for the documentation too :D

i come from an OG Evo on sprint and flashing radios was like playing with fire so i appreciate the clarification on this as i dont want a 4 hour old paperweight :P
[HTC One S] :
Nandroid first
[HTC One S] frickinjerms:
nandroids dont back up the radio imgs i dont think though
[HTC One S] :
Always good to Nandroid you never know
[HTC One S] adrien1977:
I am in the exact same boat here.

I tried a couple things like editing the updater-script file, but when i try to flash it is says "installation aborted".

I really dont want to relock. That;s for my wife's phone and she will kill me if i do anything bad.

The only reason i rooted her phone, was to remove carrier IQ and the TMO bloatware that you cannot remove.
[HTC One S] setzer715:
UPDATE: So I flashed stock Nandroid, flashed stock recovery, rebooted, checked for update, it downloaded and installed just fine so if your having issues its NOT the bootloader. Maybe a bad download?

I'm on 1.83 now. Here's the REALLY interesting part. It updated the bootloader (v1.09.0000 now) but left it UNLOCKED TAMPERED. Bootloader has NOTHING to do with flashing the update. Just need stock ROM and RECOVERY.

So you need the "Tampered" gone but the software version of the available Nandroid and not the RUU. Seems like flashing the hboot in the RUU is what would clear "Tampered".

Could you: NOTE: Step 3 is for discussion only. If you try this and F@*k your phone up it's on YOU!

1 - Restore Nandroid

2 - Flash stock Recovery with All-In-One or fastboot flash yourself.

3 - Erased so Noob's don't try and brick their phones

4 - fastboot reboot

That should relock bootloader and clear the "Tampered" at the top?
[HTC One S] fabiane79:
I been trying to change the updater-script and update-binary as both file do a is_ship_bootloader if we can have a dev update the script will be great... I try but not luck
[HTC One S] invensmaster:
Straight forword question

A very simplr straight forword question that i hope to find an answer for. i am sure all the fellows here have been doing alot of tryel and errors

the questions is

has any one was able to go through the update and was still able to keep the root on the stock? will this update make us loose root?

Thanks
[HTC One S] seanyuan62:
Nobody else having these issues?
[HTC One S] Psyclism:
Ok.. I re-locked my bootloader, flashed stock recovery, and re-installed the stock TMOUS RUU.. all successfully. I've also downloaded no fewer than three distinct copies of the update zip from different locations, and every time, without fail, my phones recovery refuses to see the update. I renamed the files "update.zip", put them on the root of my sd card, and every time I attempt to go into recovery, the phone displays an icon of a phone with a green circle around it (with arrows), then eventually displays an icon of a phone with a red exclamation point next to it. It'll eventually reboot and load into the stock OS.

Clicking on the OTA update check button on my phone doesn't do anything either.

This is getting very frustrating! Any idea what might be going on?

Thanks in advance!
[HTC One S] fabiane79:
did you read the forum... I posted something about that earlier... the TMOUS RUU is a R2
[HTC One S] setzer715:
This is because of what fabiane79 said in a previous post. That RUU changes the software version (adds "_R2") so when your phone checks in it is checking in with the wrong version number therefore htc servers don't think there is an update for it.

Nandroid restore to stock, flash stock recovery, reboot and check for update. This worked for me.

---------- Post added at 07:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:49 AM ----------

You don't need to do that. You don't even have to mess with your hboot or even unroot. You only have to have stock recovery and then Check In for the update. Flash custom recovery back when update is finished.

EDIT: I also had to reflash super user, it was broke after update but now works fine.

---------- Post added at 08:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:51 AM ----------

WiFi working fine here. Maybe try wiping?
[HTC One S] fabiane79:
I try few recoveris could you upload the recovery.img you used. I already flash Nandroid
[HTC One S] setzer715:
I don't have the stock recovery. I used this tool. Just boot into bootloader, fastboot mode, launch app and in the box top right select stock then click Flash Recovery.

Forgot to link tool. It's here.
[HTC One S] ydizzle:
Same here :)
[HTC One S] setzer715:
Did you use the Tmobile US Patch along with the new radio?
[HTC One S] fabiane79:
do I need to go back to the old radio as I have the new Radio running but have the Stock Nandroid
[HTC One S] setzer715:
I'm not sure. I didn't flash the radio before hand. I was 100% 1.53 accept rooted and unlocked/tampered boot loader.

---------- Post added at 09:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 AM ----------

My wifi is broke on LeeDroid. Yours working?
[HTC One S] Closed Source Project:
Yes, everything is working perfectly for me. I also got that new kernel called LowKernel.
[HTC One S] adrien1977:
I understand that there is the basic way to push the OTA.

However i find it really cumbersome.

I don't mind doing it to my phone but on my wife's phone, i only rooted it to remove all the crap like TMO apps or Carrier IQ.

I really dont want to have to go back to stock recovery, apply update, the reinstall all the apps and change the state the way it was before.

There's gotta be a better way for people that only rooted the phone.

As for me i use TrickDroid so i have to wait until a new release containing the update:(

I am sure out there, there is someone that has the answer
[HTC One S] strker45:
Why don't you just use titanium back up and back up all her data and apps then restore after wards or use root explorer to copy the /data/app folder, which contains all user apps, to the SD card and restore from there?
[HTC One S] setzer715:
That method does not wipe the phone. It just applies the update like you never messed with the phone. It's not cumbersome. Extremely easy.

Flash stock Recovery with this tool.

Boot and update.

Flash custom recovery with same tool.

Install this superuser zip.

Done.

Credit goes to the dev's that provided this software.
[HTC One S] adrien1977:
Hold on.

I think i am missing something here. And first, i have to say thanks for your help and patience with "idiots" ;) like me.

So, the whole issue here is because of the recovery itself???

Hmmm interesting.

I will definitely try that then, and if it works, I will give you tons of kudos.

adrien
[HTC One S] setzer715:
I know what I did wrong on LeeDroid. It was late and I was tired but I forgot to fastboot flash the boot image. All is well now.
[HTC One S] ydizzle:
When i installed the rom i did install it with the US Tmo Patch. Yesterday I flashed the new radio.

But now my data is not working while im on a phone call.

Is it because of the patch?
[HTC One S] setzer715:
I did not install the patch but I haven't been out to test yet. Will report back later after doing some testing.
[HTC One S] dizzy21:
I'm not sure if this is what your talking about. The only data that will work when your on a call is WiFi. 3g and 4g will until the call is ended.
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
This is the way all of my TMO phones have worked, but there should be no reason that you can't have 3G/4G data simultaneous with voice. TMO must be taking some shortcut with the way their network works that makes it work this way in the US.
[HTC One S] setzer715:
No, they are not doing this. Something else is going on.

It is possible, though, that your phone is handing down to 2G (if your signal goes week) while your on a call and you cannot use data and voice at the same time on 2G. NOTE: Your phone will not hand back up to 3G while in a call.
[HTC One S] calming:
Alright, which of the devs is going to be first to update their custom ROM to 1.84?

Any bets?

HTC One S OTA update

I downloaded the OTA yesterday, booted to recovery and the update failed. I tried again today but the update is no longer available. I restored to stock using a the 1.53 Stock RUU flashed back to stock recovery and re-locked the bootloader.

The OTA still doesn't appear. I've not had this much trouble updating before. Any assistance would be very much appreciated.
[HTC One S] setzer715:
The RUU has been covered a few times. It instals and R2 (whatever that is) version of the software. So if you look at your software version it will have R2 in there. That is not stock. So the HTC servers think your on a different firmware and will not update your phone.

You need to follow the steps I provided above or use the Nandroid I posted in a different thread.
[HTC One S] BSAKSOUK:
Same here issue. No idea what's causing it.
[HTC One S] eminembdg:
Same here. First noticed this on my vibrant and still happens on this HTC One S also.

[HTC One S] ricky176bx:
Just to let you know that when I restore to normal stock I wouldn't get the update it just won't download so it have to be something else
[HTC One S] likingandroid:
Thank You for the advice. Is there a link of your Nandroid 1.83. I tried the link in the previous post but I don't see a way to download the backup unless you join 4shared?
[HTC One S] setzer715:
Sorry, I had dropbox up but they suspended me for too many downloads. You'll have to join 4shared or ask someone to link from a different place. Joining 4shared is free, just use a crap email you don't care about.

---------- Post added at 08:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 AM ----------

I've seen in a few threads that people cannot update lately. I'm wondering if TMO pulled the update due to so many people complaining about loss of data and WiFi. My phone, fortunately, seems to be functioning fine but there are a bunch who are having issues.
[HTC One S] fabiane79:
Here is what you need to do To get a working TMOUS OTA, make sure you have CWM, wipe cache-partition-dalvik-battery...

Install the Radio from OTA_Ville_U_TMOUS_1.84.531.2 from here...

http://ville.giev.de/?page_id=42

then install the new Nandroid of Stock TMOUS 1.84 Rooted from here...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1698861

that should do it and fixed data connection and speed on my HTC ONE S below is a prove...
[HTC One S] adrien1977:
Looks like i waited too long to try it.

When i check for updates, it says that there are none available.

May be it's because it thinks it already downloadded it before it changed the recovery.
[HTC One S] Orical:
Worked like a charm, I'm thinking about starting a db of full roms with each update so others have a list of changes to work with. Thanks for the info and links, very helpful.
[HTC One S] jntdroid:
Forgive me if I've missed something, but I've read through this thread twice now and I'm still confused on a couple of points.

I have a fully stock, untouched, never unlocked One S (Tmo US). Never run an RUU (well I assume not - bought it from a buddy... not sure why an RUU would've been needed on a phone that's never been rooted!) I've had it for a couple of days now and still no OTA when I check.

So a couple of questions... First, the file in the first two posts - that's the official .zip that was pushed by T-Mobile, right? Secondly, should it be renamed to "update.zip" or the "P***IMG.zip" titling (not sure what the asterisks represent on the One S, but the Rezound, for example, is PH98IMG.zip)? Unless I'm remembering wrong, most HTC devices look for that P**IMG.zip format if it's flashed via hboot.

Love the phone, but have experienced a few of the bugs that this patch supposedly fixes, so I'm anxious to get it running. I've hacked my phones to death historically and I'm trying to avoid being sucked into that world again, and just want my plain jane, "boring" stock phone running as good as it can. ;)

Thanks in advance...
[HTC One S] Orical:
That's how I have it as well, I rooted it by token HTC unlock, Installed cwm and flashed the radio then the nandoid listed above. This is by far the easiest method of doing what you need to have a rooted device updated.
[HTC One S] jntdroid:
gotcha - so using the official .zip and updating without root isn't possible then?
[HTC One S] x1tyme:
Correct. Root or no flash

It sucks to wait Carrier push OTA to you or play manually check game.
[HTC One S] jntdroid:
It seems crazy to me that if we have the official .zip from the OTA that we can't make it work somehow - like rename it to P**IMG.zip and flash through hboot. But I'm sure these "newer" systems are more locked down than they used to be, so my opinion is coming from ignorance... ;)
[HTC One S] likingandroid:
I joined 4shared downloaded the Nandroid 1.84 backup and installed the new radio and all is well.. Thank you for your assistance.
[HTC One S] Orical:
You would be surprised at how much they let pass now, HTC views s-off as an unlocked hboot only now where's that wasn't the case in the past. They don't Monday development as long as they can protect the user from bricking the device permanently, you can do everything you want basically with s-on without major fear of destroying the device. "As they put it."
[HTC One S] kjacksonmusic:
***Boot the downloaded recovery image with fastboot** taken from here:http://ville.giev.de/?page_id=42

what does this mean? i downloaded the recovery image in cwm it updates successfully, this is just confusing to me to have to flash it via flashboot when I update it via the app and no files are put on the phone (that i am aware of)

Does this mean that if iam up to date i can continue and flash the radio via cwm recovery? also when i try the fastboot command it gives me "cannot load recovery.img" probably because I have no such file.

Thanks for your help.
[HTC One S] kjacksonmusic:
issue resolved i just went ahead and flashed the nandroid first via cwm and then the radio, works fine.
[HTC One S] light_n_roses:
any idea on when this updates will cames out for the euro one S via automatic update ???
[HTC One S] Orical:
I did read somewhere it could be up until the 29th. If your rooted it won't notify you so I would log into your carrier and see if it's out, it might already be.
[HTC One S] fabiane79:
Has anyone try the steps below...

For the ONE S:

Be on STOCK recovery + STOCK TMO firmware (not the one from the leaked RUU).

Steps:

A) Download the OTA from:

B) you must have temp root. or perm root. However you want to do it.

C) adb push OTA_Ville_U_TMOUS_1.84.531.2-1.53.531.16_release_2651973pm4j0bopq68v1g1.zip /mnt/sdcard/

D) adb shell

E) cp OTA_Ville_U_TMOUS_1.84.531.2-1.53.531.16_release_2651973pm4j0bopq68v1g1.zip /cache/update.zip (AS ROOT) / if cp does not work. You need busybox.

F) cd /cache/

G) mkdir recovery

G1) cd recovery

H) echo “–update_package=/cache/update.zip” > command

H2) exit from adb on the phone (just type exit and hit enter)

I) adb reboot recovery
[HTC One S] light_n_roses:
no I'm not rooted cause I haven't unlock my phone..I'm still hoping that a non official unlock comes out so I can avoid using htcdev
[HTC One S] Orical:
Well from what I read of your original question you wanted to know when the ota would be released for the euro version so I replied it could take till the 29th as they posted somewhere. Unless I misunderstood your question I think I was on the same page.
[HTC One S] jntdroid:
^^Got the OTA tonight and did just this (well, manually with fastboot commands, but same thing...) and it appears to have worked perfectly - which makes sense. All I had done was unlock/root with CWM - didn't touch radios, roms, etc.

I'm a "rooted stock" guy 99.9% of the time. So my question is this... how do I go about pulling the stock recovery.img after the 1.84 update? I don't know if 1.84 updated the recovery .img or not, but if it did, I want to make sure I can flash back to it for any future OTA's.
[HTC One S] adrien1977:
Wow, you are lucky because it did not work at all for me.

I tried countless of methods and none worked. I ended up taking the nandroid and reinstalling everything by hand
[HTC One S] jntdroid:
Weird - were you running the factory "out of the box" system or the RUU? B/c evidently the RUU isn't exactly like the factory "out of the box" system - at least not exact enough for the OTA to take.
[HTC One S] frickinjerms:
so will the 0.16.31501S.17_2_10.23.31501S.10L radio which is the EU one from the 1.78 RUU that i got from HEREEE work on the t-mobile one s? i keep getting baseband unknown in MIUI but it showed the 17_2 in my hboot...
[HTC One S] :
yes it will I am running it on LeeDroid, but radios work across roms

just flash correctly with TWRP or if with CWR boot into recovery thru fastboot first
[HTC One S] frickinjerms:
i have twrp 2.1.8 and so i dont think the flash is where the problem was.. im honestly not sure what was because i just did a clean install of leedroid and presto i got my signal back haha well ill reinstall miui and if that works ill do a restore on my nandroid :P

oh the time consuming woes of trial and error :P

however, once again, thank you for the clarification :D (thats twice now)

EDIT: Clean MIUI install worked :D now time to test le nandroid!

EDIT AGAIN: Nandroid of MIUI worked, it popped up with the Optimizing Applications screen which it hadnt done before and then all was good

Lower Score OTA update

Is it Just me. My bro had the update unrooted htc one s. Cleared all apps running

in task manager and ran Quadrant. Scored less than HOX 4550.

Apparently ,my one s is rooted didn't update through ota but flash the newer radio.

Scored 5080. While the previous radio and stock scored 5180.

Can anyone confirm this?
[HTC One S] jntdroid:
I didn't run quadrant before the OTA, but after I'm consistently getting 4400 to 4500. I'm rooted, but haven't frozen anything. I did it after a reboot as well.
[HTC One S] SkipSkip24:
Now if feel so reluctant to update. If someone could put a shine upon this. I need to know what is slowing down our phone. Could it be more system apps applied running in the background. Or could it be some propaganda from htc to say hey htc one x is hella faster to boost sales. This is BS!!:mad:
[HTC One S] jntdroid:
A 500 point quadrant difference isn't that big of a deal honestly. Heck, quadrant itself isn't the greatest gauge of real life usage anyway. I get where you're coming from if it's the fault of the update, but I don't know if we'll ever really be able to know that, so I wouldn't waste too much anger on it. :)
[HTC One S] seanyuan62:
Bump this question up. I tried doing a factory reset, but no help
[HTC One S] jntdroid:
No WiFi problems here, before or after update.
[HTC One S] Orical:
Same here I didn't have a problem before hand and I don't see that much of a difference after the fact either but if people are having wifi issues there are a few things they can do to see if it's on the device side of it or on the router side.

Check to see that your running your network on 2.4ghz as it's a well known problem for a lot of the S4 devices to be running on 5ghz due to the fact they pick up interference on that frequency for some reason. Try knocking down the protection to about WPA or even WEP and see if the router is able to handle it if it's old.

There have been a lot of people complaining about wifi everything and after talking to a few people in pm about their problems with it we found that either the router was old and needed upgrading or the network they were on was DSL and it caused the device to lag while using wifi or they had just missed something that cause it to drop all of the time.

The one last thing though is the problem that this is one forum for many devices from many different countries and it's all boiling into one forum so people are trying to do updates from ENG on a FR device and noticing problems, there has to be some way to separate the versions. They are all HTC One S devices but the regions all work a little differently and what works in the UK might be totally different for the US.
[HTC One S] mteezey:
Just got my one s yesterday and haven't rooted yet. I was notified of ota accidentally downloaded but didn't install(knowing the risks since I do plan on rooting). I have read all 15 or whatever pages of this thread(and some others) and there has been no definitive answer to whether or not this will affect anything root wise when I do. The thread was kinda chaotic :D:eek: never seen so many people trying to update with a custom recovery and unlocked bootloader. Rule #1 read the OP then read some more :p hope someone can shed some light on this for me. Tia

There's an OTA Base .84 rom out already. If you are going to root, you can do that and just flash rom. Does seem like a lot of OTA install issues--many, as you mentioned, people not reading--

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1709379
[HTC One S] Orical:
Sounds like the modules are bad, maybe they are the wrong one's or they were't added but if you send him a PM he'll fix it for everyone that's using it. Part of it is when you flash a different rom they usually set it up so the new one over writes the old modules but you can set it up to leave the previous modules but like I said before maybe the one's in the ROM are different or didn't over write them properly.

The other thing you can try is wiping the dalvik and cache and reboot and see if that cleans it up (Fix Permissions too it takes a little bit but it helps).

Also for those whom are having SU problems and know what your doing when installing apps there is a work around for the loosing root issue, go to SuperSU app and go to settings and change the access permission to GRANT instead of prompt and this will grant everything you install that requests permission to root (I moved the app from data/app to system/app and I stopped having problems) but be warned if you install something your not use too using it will have full root to your device so be smart on what you install.
[HTC One S] eminembdg:
I've done the fix permissions and clearing of cache. Even went into fast boot and flashed just the boot image. Still nothing
