Download one of the latest OTA zip files, ex. OTA_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3-2.14.401.1_release_261810uuzn2yxubjlshdle.zip
There is a file called firmware.zip inside. Change the name to PG76IMG.zip and copy it to the root of your SD card and enter hboot and wait... Don't forget to lock the bootloader before.
Firmware.zip is a file with the recovery,radio,hboot,etc. partitions. There is no system part.
After all, unlock your bootloader, flash CWM recovery, etc.. You have the new radio and the old system.
I'm not sure if that operation makes a factory reset so don't forget about the nandroid backup.

Well for an ruu to work, bootloader must be locked, try using theq86 bl controller tool to lock it, check the development section.

That's exactly how i want to upgrade my hboot 1.08.0099 to hboot 1.09.0099. The problem is that i can't find the boot.img and the system.img for the hboot1.09.0099. Thats my problem from the begining. So the botom of the line is i just need those two files.

Hi,
i have S-ON, bootloader unlocked, root, 2.13.401.3
after this update 2.26.401.3 stay still bootloader unlocked?
EDIT: maybe i need S-OFF, not possibly update my mobile...
you need to relock the bl in order to install any ruu.
i had a hard time updating my phone to 2.26
if you take a look at the first thread for this update, the ota update, there are details for how to update to this version and still keep bl-nlocked and easily root

Can anyone send me this file not via filefactory? There are no free slots in there at all

try the process in this thread, if you can't get it to work straight away, try using the method i used (thanks to rezo).
1 - install the ruu for 2.14.401.1
(http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?o6ox43q3taa33iu)
1.5 - if you can't do this because you already have the rom from 2.26 (but old radio etc), follow this tutorial so that you can go back to ruu 2.14.401.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1540952&highlight=downgrade
2 - use htcdev process (without ruu step) to unlock bootloader
3 - install cwm recovery by flashing this file (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?1rdxmtpx26201or) via "fastboot flash recovery recovery(custom).img"
4 - put update.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?vycb7415nn9boct) on the root of your sd card and install from cwm recovery.
4.5 - if the update doesn't work (i.e. if you still get "triangle !" logo flash this file (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?bqni648c46r5e44) via cwm and choose the option "supervision", then try the update again.
5 - after installation and first boot (take a while) boot back to cwm and flash this root.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?dumbffr3n8igau4)
you should now have the latest stock rom, latest hboot, latest radio, and be root.

I have problem with install RUU, why?

what is the error code?
things to remember when you flash an ruu :-
you should not have modified system files (except for root)
you should have stock recovery to start with
you may need to create gold card
you should be relocked bootoader
if you are already on a software number which is higher than the ruu you are trying to install, you may need to downgrade first, using the guide posted above.
Is there anyway without S-OFF to update the radio? I would rather not loose any data too. I've manage to update everything but the radio.

if you're s-off already, can't you just flash the radio.img?
don't quote me on that, i'm not s-off myself, so i'm not reallu 'up' on all the thigns you can do and how you do them. but i was under the impression that with s-off you can flash it same as you flash recovery.img or system.img?
Do I need to flash radio? Because my girlfriends WFS has been t-mobile branded so I think I'm not able to flash RUU without gold crad?
Is it possible to flash system.img and boot.img only? Or will there be conflicts with radio/ramdisk etc...
BL is unlocked and device is rooted atm!
I installed this RUU to my Wildfire S by this tutorial
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1540952
My phone had unlocked bootloader (via htcdev.com), Root, S-On and my Hboot version was 1.09.0099. When I was trying to install RUU I got ERROR 140(bad hboot version). So I used mentioned tutorial to downgrade hboot and then I install new RUU.
I downloaded RUU 2.26.401.3 from this site because on Football's FileFactory link are allways full slots.
Code:

And there is a ZIP version if someone want

Sorry for poor english.
Can anyone please upload the RUU to another server?
FileFactory is always overloaded. And the russian site is too slow to download from America. 3kbps gg.
Any issues unlocking BL and rooting this update? Any compelling reason to stay with 2.13.401.2/3?

The only way to remove the locked relocked is to downgrade the hboot. In hboot 1.08.0099 and 1.09.0099, Locked, relocked, etc will be there no matter what.
You will have to try and flash an hboot like 0.90.0000, 1.03.0000, or 1.08.0000 to get rid of the locked indicator.

Always better to be up-to-date IMO, at least if you use the new RUU now you only have to run the OTA once JB is released so you only have to set things up again now
But to answer your question, it's not advisable to try and flash just the HBOOT as you need other FW parts to go with it and the RUU is designed to run together
Ok...
so i flash the recovery from H3G_UK_1.29.771.11 relock bootloder
run H3G_UK_2.17.771.3 RUU DONE?
and after i can unlock bootloader and root like before?
Absolutely! Although you won't be able to get the JB OTA if you're rooted (well, you can be it's more hassle then it's worth IMO)

Why wouldn't you just want to relock the bootloader and then run RUU??? can't you unlock bootloader like before and then flash CWM and the whole rooting process again after updating to 2.17 and hboot 1.12... anyway whats the point of updating to hboot1.12??? its still has ICS
Hello,
I've a problem. I want to my DHD was unblocked. So, I Did S-off by AAHK 13-01-12 and when my DHD is reboot on hboot mode this doesnt found PD98IMG.zip . OFC. I write to sd card few other zip. but this not help.
I download older version AAHK - 29-10-11 and when DHD reboot I see bootloop. In CMD i found flashing radio.. - This is reason to bootloop.
If I've S-on I can't flash radio by fastboot, yes?
If this true how I Fix it? On the recovery mode? I dont know how...
Please help me Fix It and make s-off
I think you can flash it if you are unlocking your device via htvdev or maybe aahk2 will fix it

With S-ON you can't flash a radio as your nand partition security is still on even with an unlocked bootloader. Try flashing a ruu to get to normal state and then re try what you were trying to do. Besides, do not use the Hack Kit but the new version AAHK2 to be found in the general section of the forum.

If you want to make it rooted, but s-on, flash clockworkmod recovery into your device by fastboot, then put your downloaded ROM.zip into main directory of sd card, and go to recovery do full wipe, dont forget to go advanced and wipe dalvik and battery status, then install from zip. Reboot after complete again into fastboot open cmd and dive to directory where you extracted boot.img from ROM.zip and type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and "fastboot reboot". If you need more help pm
I've software number 3.12.405.2 - btw. this number is very rare..
so I must flash RUU on the hboot?
maybe i must flash into the recovery? - what software i need?
How do I download ruu ?
Lol uncle google doesn't help or I don't know how to find it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okey, I fix it..
I turn on fastboot mode and aah 2 I flash radio for eeu - this fix radio.
Next I lounched normal aahk and all is ok.
I've s-off , custom recovery and custom rom.
Thanks Guys!
