Hey guys,
Nearly everybody knows that it sucks to be S-ON, you can't flash custom roms, delete system apps which just take space on your device. An the only way out is to buy a XTC clip. But for what? The Wildfire S isn't a high end device, it costs about 200 euros. And the XTC clip about 80 euros. Thats to much.
Alphax, tried it, without any success. HTC won't tell us anything and HTC Dev.. hmmm, htcdev, who can ask them? NOBODY, I searched for the email adress but no way man.
But now we got a new chance!!
The HBOOT 1.08 is here. With the update to 2.3.5 comes the hboot 1.08. Alphax tried to unlock the hboot 1.03, but now they can try it on the new hboot 1.08. Maybe its easier, may harder. But there's even a new 50% chance for us User.
SO:
Stop trying to hack (unlock) the old bootloader! Start developing with the new. We can get it. I know it!
Good Luck!
Matteo
maybe a chance

Why should they make it more secure? Nobody can unlock it instand of XTC.

Ufff, your title is a bit misleading. I thought that solution is here.
This is just another " let's discuss " thread. Hope we find the solution fast.

I like that phrase: when one door closes, another opens.
I'm glad that you renamed the thread title because we're already too tired of misleading information going around.
Maybe there is a vulnerability waiting for an exploit in the new bootlooder...
WFS is the first and the last phone that I bought from HTC. I really hate htc Samsung at least it is not difficult to crack
I would have been in your group.....but my bootloader didn't get upgraded by the RUU(like some others)....anyway you might be right anything new is not always improved........there might be a chance that an exploit is found in the new HBOOT
Yea, but no one from here is qualified enough to that unfortunately.

You updated the firmware to 2.3.5 but your hboot is still 1.03? Am I right?
Mine is still 0.90 after flashing 2.3.5 RUU..
i think he has the same too...
Maybe HBOOT version depends on how one updated to 2.3.5 ?
I dit FOTA update from HTC and got new HBOOT 1.08. Maybe it's different if you flash the files uploaded in the ROM section.
I also did it with the ruu Rom update. If You want it to flash again I can give you the link. Just write me a message.

DO I just use a goldcard and download this:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Buz...45.55.24_3.35.15.31_release_130814_signed.exe
I'm slightly concerned that it says "HTC Buzz" rather than "HTC Wildfire". Is this normal? am I changing he phone in any way that may prevent it getting updates in the future?
I just need reassurance that HTC Buzz is the same phone as the Wildfire. Was it originally called the Buzz or something, before the marketing men got involved and rebranded it.
The reason I want to debrand is the Froyo update will arrive long before the T-Mobile one arives.
Thanks.
HTC-Buzz and HTC Wildfire are the same. Buzz is the Working-Title and Wildfire the one for sale.
Its typical for HTC-Devices.

What he said. I'm on T-Mobile too and debranded my phone in the same way, although I must say the phone doesn't boot any faster!
i shouldent update the rom to 2.2 when it comes.
wait for the rooted ver, HTC will proberly install a later harder hboot to crack on 2.2 roms.
Can I debrand my H3G UK Wildfire? Do I just have to prepare a goldcard (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572683), place it into the phone and then I will be able to downgrade a rom? Thanks in advance for reply.
Hello, it's me again. I've just tried to debrand my phone (H3G UK). I've made a gold card and downloaded that rom: RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.2_R_Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35.15.31_release_130814_signed.exe. I run the exe, everything was ok, and suddenly I got an error. It was error 140, something about bootloader version.
I checked bootloader version - HBOOT-0.80.0003
Is there any way to debrand my phone?
Guys, please help me.
Its the Same 140 at 1&1 wildfire. I dont can downgrade. Can any One help Me?

It doesn't work. I just got error 140. Can I downgrade or change the bootloader version?
The Problem is the Bootloader Ver.1.19 is newer than RU-Version 1.14, so can NOT downgrade this phone!! You can still wait for Froyo 2.2!
Question don't belong in the Development section <---please click link and read....moved to general...
I had friends alpharev hboot RUU 1.8 r2 CM7 CM7 r2 installed the system has failed to establish when it comes hboot trying to open because of the HTC says the phone will not turn on the four corners bootloadder exclamation comes only allows you to install RUU ondada error occurs when installing the system please help
I'm not joking when I say I answer this question every day. It's not a dig at you in particular but why don't people get this?
The cm7 r2 partition is too small for a stock Rom. Also the hboot has write protection on it. You must flash the downgrade.img from the alpharev website in fastboot mode (from off, back+power) using fastboot commands THEN RUU
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
So, if you have already made the mistake of running the RUU first and gotten the error 110, can you still just go flash the downgrade.img and then RUU again or do you have to take stronger messures in hand to fix your mistake?
Edit: my friend made the mistake, which means i dont have the device on hand so i can see if thats even possible..
Yes you can, due to the fact that you are still S-OFF because the r2 Hboots by alpharev have an overwrite protection against RUU or OTA.
Yes you can. The only thing is the fastboot screen looks like 4 !!!! instead of the text it usually has, but it still functions
Do not have an opportunity to show a way to fix you happy
How about CWM? Would you be able to access that or has it been replaced or broken in some way?
(you might be able to read between the lines, that I dont know much about this stuff)
No, everything has gone except hboot. Fastboot flash downgrade.img then RUU is the ONLY fix
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
Thx m8's, really appreciate it, I've gone ahead and thumbed all your posts up
4 fastboot commands work well with an exclamation point on the screen is by HTC so I can do with downgrade.img and fastboot commands will open the RUU bootloader then yeah
So, my friend claims he got fastboot working and flashed the downgrader.img only to get a bootloader error 140 when running the RUU. Atm im trying to get him to use an RUU reported to work here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857245&highlight=140. Plz let me know if this is not the right approach.
It just means the RUU he has has too old a hboot version. What RUU is it?

I wouldn't use that. That 1 means its android 2.1 (Eclair). Very very old.

Once you have the downgrade.img flast via fastboot, Maybe the htcdev.com android 2.3 RUU will work as it is unbranded. It works for most branded devices, but I dont know for sure if your Carrier in your location is covered.
The RUU is here:
http://www.htcdev.com/process/legal_download/152
Go there, tick the agree box and proceed. Try to flash that (ONLY after flashing downgrade.img) and see what happens.
okay thank you I can not do tomorrow to try and take my phone to technical service to the technical service they said I had 132 USD I can change the motherboard they will send you a message right away thanks in advance

It works fine, also S-OFF doesn't go. Bootloader was unlocked by HTC so that may help you. I'm ready to give you some files if you need because I unlocked the bootloader by HTCDev. Nice to see you back, good thing the stolen stuff wasn't at gunpoint or something. Hope you continue the development on your ROMs.
HTC Wildfire S
Cyanogen(mod) 7.2 port
Bootloader unlocked
Rooted
Because it was my understanding that with old hboot some custom roms can't be flashed.
I'm not sure that's entirely true but at least i eliminate one of the problems in the future.
Hey,
I'm one of the "lucky" guys with the blackscreen problem on the WFS... Thanks to rajanand
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1781105
So now I'm able to flash new roms But it seems to me that only Android 2.3.5 Roms are running.
If I try to flash an ICS Rom i get stuck in the HTC Boot Screen. I tried to flash a new Kernel from a 2.3.5. Rom that was working (.sense Rom, AND YES I know that was a stupid idea ) This took me from the HTC Bootscreen to a blackscreen. This blackscreen is also visible in [email protected]
Trying a CM7.2 Rom with the same procedure written above I am able to see the CM7.2 load animation, but the device gets stuck in this animation.
So I hope that someone has an idea what I can do.
I already tried a superwipe (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1565263). I take a factory-reset/cach wipe/dalvik wipe for granted.
My Hboot version is 1.09.0099. As several Posts said that the bootloader should be updeted, I tryed to find a newer one as the version seen above, but I was not able to find that newer version.
Thanks for your help.
PS:
I hope I did not overlook a Post that could have helped me.....

Thank you for that link. I have downloaded all provided (there are two) europe RUUs but no one worked for me. I allways get the error 155.
If i unplug the Cable (the RUU update tool tells me to do it) HBOOT says:
RUU
Security fail!
update fail.
Takeing the battary out and in again lets the phone reboot again.
What did HTC with the WFS so that nothing works? I am so dissappointed with my device. But thank you so much for helping me

Hello everyone,
I have HBOOT 1.18.0000 and unlocked bootloader. Now I would like to get the S-Off, but every single tutorial I find is not working for me
Why do I want S-Off?
Simply because I want to lock again the bootloader, and I do not want to see ** RE LOCKED **, I want to have the original ** LOCKED **
If anyone knows any other way the get the LOCKED message instead of RELOCKED, without the s-off, I will be glad to give it a try.
Thanks

Finally!
Thanks. I had tried the rumrunner earlier, but it did not work, so I gave up. Later I read somewhere that not all ROM/Kernels are supported, so I installed a new ROM + kernel and it worked.
For who may be interested in the future, I used ROM: "RythmicROM _1.3" & Kernel: "HELLBOY-2013-06-29-4.2"
