Grant2k · Dec 10, 2011

HOWTO Upgrad old hboot s-off to new hboot 2.00.0000 s-off (7.00.1000 upgraded to be installed on revolutonary s-off 6.xxxxx)
1. download to your sd-card this file xttp://rghost.ru/34060371
2. Then reboot into bootloader - phone will install PG32IMG.zip by itself
3. Now you can install the stock firmware 3.08.405.3 (RUU or OTA), s-off

for downgrade use old eng s-off xttp://rghost.ru/34168821
or
use adb:

adb devices
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 of=/sdcard/backup.img
dd if=/sdcard/hboot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
reboot bootloader
You can flash any hboot

What will it show after installing this HBOOT? CID will be changed to SuperCID? ENG S-OFF or SHIP S-OFF?

(Sorry about I have many questions to ask. I also want to test but I relocked my boot loader.)

Grant2k · Dec 10, 2011

CID no changed , SHIP S-OFF based on revolutionary

set to revolutionary s-off 6.13 etc or eng-hboot

A little noob question, How do I go back to the S-ON? And how do I flash the CWM?

Yes these are vary obvious noob questions and the answers to both of these can be found in this forum by using the search functionality. Flashing CWM or EXT4 is the whole basis for customizing your IncS, so my suggestion to you is search, read and research to learn how to do.

is there and what is the advantage of updating old HBOOT (S-OFF) to new HBOOT (S-OFF)

keroro430 · Dec 12, 2011

You should flash the hboot back to ENG S-off if you want to go back to S-ON

For me it worked... thanks

I have updated the phone with the last firmware revision.
Now I have android 2.3.5 and sense 3.0.
Of course, hbtoot 2.0x too and the phone is s-on.
Now, what I have to do for Root my phone (set s-off and install clockwork mod)?

You won't be able to gain true S-OFF (as shown on the HBOOT screen), but you can unlock the bootloader by using the procedure at HTCDEV.com and then you can install ClockworkMod recovery and flash su-3.0-efgh-signed.zip to root the ROM.

Grant2k · Dec 15, 2011

FreeWolF80, you can unlock the bootloader, downgrade to old hboot, s-off revolutionary and upgrade to 3.08.405.3

P.S. The clockworkmod for above ^^, must flash through fastboot.

I'm running VIVO PVT SHIP S-OFF RL HBOOT-6.13.1002 (dated 1 april 2011) with rom ARHD 2.1.1, for what reasons should I upgrade to HBOOT-7.00.1000 (dated 1 november 2011)?

Are there advantages, like it will be possible easier to go back S-ON for warranty reasons?

Grant2k · Dec 16, 2011

Inferi0r , this hboot for stock 3.08.405.3

Inferi0r · Dec 17, 2011

So we have only an advantage if we are still on one of the newest stock roms?

tangcla · Dec 20, 2011

I'm curious to know too, following on from Inferi0r's question. If I'm running a custom ROM already, does this mean there's no benefit with a newer HBOOT?

Actually there are not really benefit from newer hboot..just it will be harder to s-off only..if you are running custom rom already,then it is good enough.

Trust me... Makes things worse... I can't even flash splash images now... Says permission denied even after htc's bootloader unlock... Only pg32img.zips work... Gonna flash enghboot again soon

@Knightrocker: let me know if the flash was succesfull. I can´t get rid of the modified hboot. I´ve tried to flash different hboots even via fastboot but did not succeed. Using fastboot it says that hboot flash is bypassed and does nothing. Also PG32IMG.zip tries failed by me.
If you succeed please share the PG32IMG.zip file with me. Thanks

Edit: After playing with ADB I did it. Sorry for bothering you with my trouble
