Problem trying to unlock bootloader

My Wildfire S is:

I've followed the instructions at http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/ruu-downloads which, for my network (O2UK), instructs me to "update" my ROM to 2.13.206.1. So I've updated OTA and find I have 2.26.401.3.
The problem is that the RUU from the above website won't recognise this 2.26.401.3 ROM as 2.13.206.1 and insists I "update" to 2.13.206.1 which I do not know how to do.
Is there any other way I can unlock the bootloader? Or can I get the 2.13.206.1 ROM from somewhere else and install that?

Just proceed to step 1..............If your version is higher than specified,you can unlock your phone's bootloader

You cannot install other ROM into your phone without bootloader unlocked.root permissions and CWM recovery.
If i helped you,click the "Thanks" button.Sorry for my English and have a nice night !

I think you're already have HBOOT unlockable (xxxx99)
Go to steps unlock bootloader without download ruu from htcdev.

You really don't need to update the boot loader and search for RUU when the HBoot ver is 1.08.xxx or later.
Just go thru this guide, will help you

Hi
I have the exact same Phone values and I got threw the prozess(the one behind the link above) and i got my wfs to ***UNLOCKED*** and i'm able to install new ROM's
buuuuuuuut
every Rom i installed is not capable to make or receive phone calls. Every time i try to do a call, the wfs says:
android.phone.prozess is shutting down
Did i forget anything or did anything wrong?
Got any help?

@clusternate, if your phone is MarvelC (cdma) then you have to flash ROM that suits your model.

I've got the europe (germany) version. so i think i need the GSM version.
I'm quiet new to rooting this devices. Are there different versions of every ROM?
I tried about 6-7 ROM's and not one of them worked. (MIUI, CM7, CM9, everyone from the wfs section of this forum)
A co-worker told me something about updating the modem of my wfs.
Is this true and is there a way to do it?
PS. Which ROM should work on my device?
PPS. There is another prozess that is failing.
Prozess.android.acore is also crashing.

Please help? :) Stuck on BOOT LOGO after aahk :'(

Hello guys!
Please help me out! This is my first thread here
Well, Mine's, obviously, an HTC Desire HD
Well, this is my first time with an htc, before this it was motorola(i.e EASY)
So I used aahk to downgrade to froyo, which btw, was a total success!
And then I used option 1 to S-off and root, and then I'm stuck with the htc logo..
However I'm able to get to H-Boot and CWM, although I think there must have been some error while it happened...
Now, I can't say I haven't been messing around or anything, but one for sure, I've been doing things like factory reset and wiping dalvik, things like that
Please I hope you guys are still out there, with this device...
Even trying to return to s-on and all that seems to fail..
Please put me in the light over here
I'd be grateful
Also, If you're kind enough to help me out personally, email me @ashindnile (gmail.com)
I live in Argentina, so if you're around, I'll owe you a beer
Ciao!!!
Thank you,
Ashton

You have not downgraded to froyo. The Kit does not do that, or you would be asking for help to fix your bootloader.
Anyway, if you are S-OFF and have CWM, you can do what guy tells you or do what the effen manual and re run the hack kit from the white screen.

I need the whole session to see what is going on. That only does not help at all. Anyway, you can try using a different sdcard as your seems to be corrupted to work as a goldcard.

You are S-OFF with no recovery. I remember that there's a section in glevitan's guide, bottom of page 8 or 9, that is labeled S-OFF with no recovery. I would recommend starting there.

[Q] Speaking the language of the HTC Wildfire S ??? :(

Greetings,
First humble apologies to those out there who have all the knowledge in the world, and to whom this seems like a question too simple to ask; alas I have very little technical knowledge on this subject and must seek help
OK ... I have a Wildfire S which I believe is UNLOCKED and S-ON:
***UNLOCKED***
MARVEL PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT - 1.09.0099
MICROP - 0451
RADIO - 7.57.39.10M
RUU 2.26.401.3
I have had the phone 'debranded' so it doesn't have any of the service providers nonsense on it ... but, I'm only running one or two apps on the phone and the darn Facebook built-in app is always trying to update and keeps popping up in the background as a running apps no matter how many times I 'kill' it.
I was told that there is a way of getting access to the root of the phone to delete/kill these pieces of pre-installed junk so that I can actually run the apps I want without the phone constantly reporting that it 'can't do this or that' because of low memory ... so perhaps one of you kind souls 'could spell it out', so to speak in simple terms so that I can try and find someone local who can doe these things ??
All I want is to have my phone unbranded, running a couple of apps of my choice without any interference from Junk like the Facebook app and other stuff that's been pre-installed before I got the phone ???
Many thanks

your phone is s-on so you need to root your phone.
when you bought your phone? if its 2012 model you need to use modded recovery and all.
and as your phone is unlocked you just need to use htcsupertool to add root permissions(if your phone is before 2012)
for rooting and all of 2012 wildfire s model follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1997465
good luck.
after root you can add custom roms,delete junk apps and all what you want.

Cheers

Thanks ... but I've just had a look over at the instructional and I think I'll pass. The 'shorthand' is a bit ... imprecise for those of us who don't have the hands on experience; seems to be written by those who 'know' for those who 'know'.
I need to dig out some more basic stuff I think before I dive in.

I did the bootloader unlock via HTCDev ... or at least I followed the online instructions with the 'token' etc and ended up with what I posted in the first/original post ... UNLOCKED with S-ON etc etc
As far as I remember, the phone was supplied as a replacement for my original phone sometime in 2012 hence the RUU 2.26.401.3 ... but as far as flashing ROMS etc is concerned I am absolutely at a total loss to understand the intricacies and requirements of just what is and what is not needed in order to get my phone to where I want it to be. If you can spell it out for me that would be great, if not, then I understand.

as you just wanted to remove some junk apps.so for it you need to root your device.as you already unlocked your bootloader you just need to add custom recovery and then from custom recovery you need to add root permissions.

Scholar & a Gent !

[Q]Gaining S-OFF again, after flashing a RUU.

Hello,
About a year ago, I rooted and S-OFF’ed my HTC Desire HD. I ran a lot of custom ROMs and was very excited about custom ROMs. About a week ago, my volume button came off. I wanted to return it to HTC, so I downloaded a RUU and installed it. I couldn’t get it to become S-ON again, so I decided to fix the volume button by myself (it’s completely working again, thanks to glue ).
Now I have the stock software version 2.50.405.2 with Android 2.3.3. My bootloader gives the following information:
Code:
ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-0.85.0024
MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.09.04.11_M2
eMMC-boot
Apr 12 2011, 00L55:45
So, in a weird way it seems to be S-OFF, but I can’t flash a custom recovery. I’ve been trying to root my Desire HD for about 6 hours now, and I really can’t get it to do what I want it to do. I tried it with AMT ( forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1037315 ), and SuperOneClick. But everytime I try to use GingerBreak V1.20, it keeps hanging on the screen where it tells me to wait. I let it turned on and running for about an hour, but it doesn’t work. (Before the Desire HD can be downgraded , I have to root it first. As far as I know.)
This is what I think is happening: The bootloader has to be ENG S-OFF, instead of SHIP S-OFF. But to achieve that, I need to downgrade, and before I can downgrade, I need root acces.
Am I doing something wrong?
I searched everything, and I can’t find it. If I missed something, my apologies.
Can someone help me to restore ENG S-OFF (so that I can install a custom recovery and run custom ROMs), after being S-OFF and flashing a RUU?
Thank you very much in advance!
If I didn’t supply enough information, please tell me, and I’ll give it.
I'm getting pretty desperate, as everything I try fails. I hope someone in this awesome comunity can help me.
Kind regards, Tom.

You merely need to fastboot flash a recovery.img. Instructions are part of post #7 in the link in my signature.

Thanks for your reply!
I thought that I posted a reply a couple days ago, but it seems not to be placed. I might failed to press the "post" button.
It's fixed now, I flashed an ENG S-OFF HBOOT (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248608). Now, I can flash as much ROMs as my DHD can!

I have sync installed so that should be the drivers and not sure if carrier locked When I start it up it has the HTC splash screen then a Telus splash screen so maybe carrier locked. I have unlocked it though the HTCdev site and then relocked it

You need to re-unlock, flash a custom recovery from fastboot, and flash the SuperSU.zip from recovery.
