[Q] update to 2.3.5

i am trying to update my wfs to android 2.3.5 from 2.3.3
i have tried all methods on this forum to no avail.
i have searched and read almost all threads
marvel pvt ship s-on rl ( unlocked bootloader)
h boot 1.08.0099
radio 7.53.39.03m
android 2.3.3
htc sense 2.1
kernel 2.6.35 10-g60b2609
build number 1.33.771.5 cl44680 release-keys
do apologies if i am being a complete noob but anyone able to help

ur still on stock rom?
and got 2.3.3? and want to get to 2.3.5???
just do an update in symstemsetting>aboutphone> system update

you have unlocked bootloader. do you also have cwm recovery?
if yes, you need to reinstall stock recovery and re-lock bootloader before installing official 2.3.5.
if FOTA does not work, see marvel stock rom collection in the dev section

I just got notification of an OTA update today.
So I have two problems...
Is there a link to stock recoveries? I'm pretty sure I don't have any sort of backup as I never messed with recovery till I put CWM on my phone lol.
Also, I know I rooted and S-OFF my phone, honestly don't remember if I unlocked the bootloader, pretty sure I did. (I'm assuming if it doesn't say RELOCKED or LOCKED OOW it's unlocked)
Is there a guide I can follow to re-lock and put stock recovery back onto the Wildfire S (specifically A510C/MARVELC)?

thanks for your reply, yes i have cwm.
and i have tried updating via FOTA by relocking bootloader but when it tries to update it stops with a android in a triangle.
any official htc rom try fails .

try this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445867
afterwards you should be able to flash a RUU.

I believe it means "Firmware Over The Air".
And for the record, the work that you have achieved means NO, you are not dumb.
I was always told that there are NO dumb/stupid questions, only sometimes some answers.

I have NO idea with that at all.
I did do a Google Search for "Kang" only the other day. The only things that came up were about Kangaroos. I gave up after that.

Just finished reading it.
It should be very handy for a lot of people.
I'm no Newbie but I'm also no expert.
I've done a lot of work including learning how to build/modify an existing ROM but for Windows Phone. I've had my WFS since July 2011, so I'm still learning. However, I would love to S-OFF my phone and modify a STOCK ROM. This is beyond me at present but maybe one day I can learn. All I would really like to do is delete application I would never use. Basically just customising to my own preferences.
At least this is a start.
Thank you very much.

It should. If it did, just unlock again as I THINK it may relock your bootloader.
If not, good.

Managed to change numbers and reflash following tutorial. But when I went to flash to 2.3.5 it came up with customer cid error.
Any help please.

How do i flash a custom recovery
Sent from my GT540 using xda app-developers app

See 2 post above you. Search for the index thread in the dev section. I think u need to do something with hboot. Search and research.
But how did u root your phone with unrevoke? Because unrevoke cant root the 2 latest firmwares of the wildfire, because of the hboot version.

again: all we do here is just guessing as the info you're giving is almost general - nothing specific - no details.
What software did you use to "root" your wildfire? If you don't know/remember the name - did you download it? from where? how's the file name? did you do it with htcdev?
We even don't know what phone exactly you have - are you sure it's a "wildfire"? not a "bee" or a "wildfire s"?
You said you booted into recovery - how did you do that? By holding "volume down" and "power" button simultanously until boot? What happens then? Does it show the red ! mark when you boot and when you boot into recovery?
If you just rooted your phone it's possible that you either don't have a recovery installed nor a operation system...
We really need a bit more detailed information to help

If u just searched a bit around the forums of wildfire u came across this But i will help a little.
First we need to know if u are s-off. Boot into bootloader (volume down + power button) and see if s-off is stated there or s-on. Report it to us. IF S-ON DONT DO THE NEXT STEPS! (it wont work XD)
1. First read those post here carefully to understand what you are doing and what you can do.
2. than see this guide under the topic "What after s-off" in the index thread.
3. Boot into recovery mode and see what happens.
4. See the index thread for more information

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.
