Can someone please tell me how to turn S ON on my HTC Desire? I ran the RUU for my phone (US Cellular desire) and it put me back to stock, I just still have S OFF Alpharev. I've searched for a while and can't find anything. Any help will be appreciated.
What is your current HBOOT version?
I think you need to flash the hboot downgraded from the alpharev site. I would search first as I've seen this question asked before buy I'm not 100% on the outcome

Is it possible to go S-OFF without loosing anything on the desire ?

Not sure on that as this is the CDMA desire. unrevoked S-offs this on the older Hboots. Not sure how it works on 1.02 with Alpharevx but the standard hboots dont work I believe

Flash Downgrader first to unlock the hboot protection, then use corresponding RUU.

Yes, but you need a Rooted ROM with no a2sd/d2ext scripts.

i agree, we need to know how u root/s-offed ur cdma desire (bravoc), as the apharev hboots are only for desire gsm (bravo)..so u can't use the alpharev downgrader i think
post here ur bootloader hboot infos
Yeah exactly.
The S-on security flag is in Radio's NVRAM. Obviously the radio is different between GSM and CDMA devices.
Historically on GSM, Alpharev S-off (1.8 and lower) flashed a special hboot which ignored this flag.
On CDMA Unrevoked forever did something different and didnt change the hboot
Thanks for the replies everyone. My HBOOT version is 6.06.1002 ... hope this helps...

It is a start, so looks like you definitely used revolutionary to s-off your desire. Is it CDMA?

unfortunally, i think there is no way to go back to s-on with that hboot 6.x on the desire cdma
that hboot have a downgrade protection, so the ruu can't overwrite it
maybe you can try to change it manually, doing a "fastboot flash hboot hboot.img" using the hboot img file that you can extract from your ruu exe on your pc
Doesn't work needless to say. With unrevoked we could flash the h-boot and stay s-off with alpha-rev you can't. I was just trying this as I was bored using the uscc eclair ruu.
Fastboot doesn't work either gives error can not flash h-boot on the phone. Hopefully that helps you out.
Edit: By the way qb what you doing with a uscc desire anyway? You venturing away from the photon or something I seen you over there but at this time there is no way to flash it I have found. Making img files does nothing and neither does fastboot. I am tempted to try the downgrader for the bravo for the heck of it as I don't care to brick it. Cept the woman would shoot me.
Hello everyone, my Incredible 2 is stuck on the white screen with htc logo and try to recover it booloader PG32IMG but get this error can not roll back HBOOT version please help
Note: I have the HBOOT 6.13.1002
No you don't. 6.13.1002 isn't an hboot number, it's your radio number
Plus we need more info such as if you are rooted, s-off, htcdev unlock, etc.

That's what I thought. I bought the phone used and I honestly don't remember if it was 0.97 when I got it. I know it wasn't 0.98.
I used Revolutionary the day I got it,with no problems, and have been flashing ever since.
All I know is I happened to be in bootloader for something when I noticed it was 6.13.1002.

I would suggest going into recovery, doing a wipe, flash a backup, wiping again and then rebooting.

Hmm well I thought I saw a bonestock ROM somewhere. You might try searching for it then flashing that ROM and see if that does it for you.
Or just wipe and see if it loads.

So exactly did you do before you got the white screen? And by exactly what I mean just that. Give us details. Were you flashing a ROM? If so what ROM and what method were you using to flash it? Did you sneeze, did you stand on one foot?

Why would you try a method to S-OFF intended for other devices with this one? It would be a nice starting point to screw up the device though :good:

You should try firewater. If it doesn't work for you then you are out of luck. Either pay the $25 once and then flash whatever you like, or you will just wait for the official OTA
the $25 is worth it :good:

you didnt do anything wrong. right now theres no public way to get s-off. the guy above bought a very expensive java card to achieve s-off. a app called sunshine should be able to get us s-off in January with its version 3.0

its a extra security measure HTC phones have. the biggest issue with s-on is flashing kernels. with s-on you have to manually flash them using fastboot commands. With s-off you can do other things like flash firmware from other regions or run RRU's from other countrys as well, it would help with sim unlock and changing your model id.
