[Q] T-mobile got bootloop after s-off

NewbieFound · Jun 4, 2014

Greetings all. Please help.

S4, T-mobile (TMOUS)
What i have done:
+ debranding PJ4011000->PJ4010000
+ SuperCID 11111111
+ S-OFF by facepalm, moonshine, rumrunner

I try every kind of s-off and as a result: Bootlooping phone (black desktop, and in a minute - system restart)

Checked on RUU 2.31,2.35, 3.14, ViperOneS, CM10.

If i get S-ON, RUU firmware works fine

Please help, how can i get everything works?

Lock your boot loader and RUU to RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_TMOUS_3.14.531.11_Radio_1.13.5 0.05.31_10.30.50.08L_release_309489_signed_ICS_2

I know it's a TMOUS ruu, but it is reliable and you won't be keeping it.

After that, you should still be s-off, so unlock bootloader again, fastboot TWRP 7.0.0.8, root and then press forward with whatever ROM you want to use.

Thank you for help.
I've installed RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_TMOUS_3.14 - still black desktop and reboot after 30 seconds

Should RUU work fine on S-OFF?

I can install any RUU (tmous/europe) or custom (viperones) - no errors. But nothing phone doesn't work after install.

So with s-on, your phone works normally, right?

How are you achieving s-off?

Some phones can't seem to s-off. Maybe you're in that group.

Okay, if my phone can't be s-off, can i install viperones, then retrun S-ON, and if i don't like viper install RUU again? (in other words, can i install RUU on custom roms while S-ON?)

You're welcome, feel free to hit the thanks button.

As for flashing ruu's while s-on, the short answer is yes. However, you don't need to flash a RUU every time you want to change Roms. You can just wipe between and flash away.

Lastly, be sure to update your radio before going back to s-on. It makes it much easier.

Could you be so kind and share a link. I found only guides/how to, but couldn''t find thread where there is comparison between 1.20 and 1.35 radio

nicknc · Jun 5, 2014

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2709164 is the link for the 1.35 radio. This supposedly only works for non-us markets

For 1.20, which works for all, search the android development forum. I believe it is in there.
