Update 2: I've removed all the Method 1,2,3,etc. and added one universal method instead. Advanced, risky one kept.
Update: I've improved the thread, added pictures and what not. Hope you all like it now.
I'm not responsible if your phone blows up, bricks, sd card malfunctions or whatever during this tutorial!
Prerequisites:
A Locked Bootloader
RUU of the radio and / or HBOOT you want.
ADB installed
HTC Drivers
Goldcard (Steps at the end of the post)
Alright, then let's begin.
Download the Bootloader Control tool from this thread. (Thanks theq86!)
Put the zip on the root of your SD card.
Reboot into recovery and flash it.
A Menu-type thingy will appear. It will show you 4 options:
Unlock Bootloader
Lock Bootloader (Guarantee Mode)
Lock Bootloader (Relocked State)
Supervision
Now, what you have to do is, choose either the 2nd or 3rd option.
Then say "NO" to reboot. Go back to the main menu of CWM.
Advanced > Reboot Recovery.
It'll reboot the recovery and get you the main menu again.
Again go back to the bltool and this time, choose supervision.
After that, reboot back to the bootloader and into fastboot.
Download and get the latest RUU, that contains the newest radio and hboot: http://www.4shared.com/zip/gsk9viET/RUU_Marvel_S_Vodafone_UK_22616.html
Let the RUU do its job. After everything's done, your phone will reboot. (You will be factory reset, of course.)
And you'll have the latest Radio and HBOOT.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ADVANCED!:
Instead of using the RUU, if you just want the radio and nothing else, follow these steps:
This is not tested by me and I am not responsible if your phone blows up, bricks, etc.
Let the RUU open up till the I agree screen. (Picture above)
Now, open up task manager (Ctr-Shift-Esc / Ctrl-Alt-Delete) and go in "Processes".
Find a process called ARUWizard.exe. Right click and "Go to location".
You'll find a bunch of files and a rom.zip inside. Copy it to wherever you want, rename it to PG76IMG.zip and put it on the root of your SD Card.
Then reboot your phone to bootloader. If all goes well, it will tell you its flashing. It will first flash the HBOOT and radio. Then, it will reboot.
**PULL OUT THE BATTERY WHEN YOU WILL SEE THE RECOVERY SCREEN AGAIN AFTER 1st RESTART (NOT SOONER!) **
And if everything was good, you wouldn't have lost your data, and you would have the latest HBOOT and Radio.
Thanks to Yasounet for this.

HOW TO MAKE A GOLDCARD:
Use this to create one: http://www.mediafire.com/?hdxoe6e5km434tb
If you want to know when the SD card should be in the phone and / or in the reader, do this: (Refer to the Steps when you start the SimpleGoldCard software)
Step 1 of Software - SD should be in an SD card reader OR Set the phone in disk drive mode.
Step 3 of Software - SD should be in the Phone OR disable disk drive.
Good luck and Happy Flashing!

Okay. Typing this out from my phone, so I'll make this quick. Sorry, but I'll elaborate when I'm on the PC.
So here's the steps to upgrading your HBOOT and radio.
1 - Lock your bootloader again by the following cmd: fastboot oem lock.
2 - Download and get the latest RUU, that contains the newest radio and hboot: http://www.filefactory.com/file/7c4...5.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed.exe
3- Start up the RUU till its on the I agree and crap screen. Ctrl-Shift-Esc. Hit the processes tab and search for ARUwizard.exe.
4- Right click and go to location. You'll see a bunch of files and a Rom.zip.
5 - Make a goldcard and just copy the rom.zip leaked from the RUU changing its name into PG76IMG.zip. Reboot to the bootloader.
6 - If everything went well it will detect the .zip, load it and then ask you to install it. First it'll install hboot and radio, then it'll automatically reboot and flash the entire updated system, boot, etc.
7 - If you still have your unlock_code.bin from htcdev, just reboot into bootloader, on fastboot mode, and just type: fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin.
8 - It'll ask you unlock your bootloader, say yes, and then it reboots.
9 - And that's all, now you can reinstall again another recovery and flash then the rom that you want or restore and backup
I'll update this thread with pics for y'all tomorrow. My hands are paining now.

For the 2nd question:
The RUU doesn't go ahead if you have an unlocked bootloader. Since these are supposed to be used on official roms, they require a locked bootloader. At least that's what I think.

Thought I would post rom.zip from inside the RUU Release:
Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.13.401.2_Radio_47.23a.35.3035H_7.53.39.03M_release_225747
It's downloadable as a PG76IMG.zip file for those who are able to/want to flash it from Hboot instead of RUU connected to computer method.
I flashed my upgrade this way and it fully upgraded Radio, Hboot, Microp, etc.
I was XTC Clip S-OFF of course. It did not S-ON the phone.
Directions:
1/ Download the file.
2/ Place it on the root of your SD Card.
3/ Power down and remove and replace battery.
4/ Hold Volume Down and Power On buttons at the same time.
5/ Follow the directions on screen.
6/ Replace file with your custom recovery and flash it if need be.
Enjoy.

This is simply the stock rom extracted from the RUU installer. Nothing more. Nothing less.
This File is signed by HTC.
So you dont need S-off to flash this Rom.
This is not for the A510e ?
Or?
I think,the title clearly say [WILDFIRE S A510e].

Your phone is branded so use a goldcard or a ruu with the correct cid.
theq86 posted in another thread that it's possible to install this with an unlocked bootloader without a gold card.
Here's his instructions:
theq86 said:
extract the zip.
Copy:
boot.img
system.img
to your Android directory (where you have fastboot and adb)
boot into hboot, mark fastboot, hit power button and attach usb cable
now open a command shell:
fastboot flash boot boot.ini <-- will flash kernel and boot
fastboot flash system system.img <-- will flash stock rom
now go to hboot, factory reset and restart

Can you post the complete information you have about your hboot? You can't be S-Off after you updated to the official Gingerbread file from HTC... unless you did something else afterwards.
Try s-off again...

Reboot the phone into recovery (battery pull, hold volume up + power). Then mount the sd card from CWM & copy a ROM over. Do a full wipe (data, cache, Dalvik) and install the ROM, you should be able to get it working again

That is why u are stuck...you are still S-ON...now you know that it is always better to check before doing something.
Anyway, you are not bricked, half bricked, soft bricked or anything bricked at all..you are just stuck.
You have two choices:
If you didn't factory reset the phone (that will erase the usb drivers from it) you can just plug the phone from the splash screen and run the hack kit to have the job done
Find a RUU for your phone, flash it and when the device is fully functional then re run the Hack Kit
Both will let you with a fully working phone. I would choose the second one just to make sure that everything is working...hope it helps.
i wasn't the one that used the tool so no drivers are installed on my computer...it was also factory reset.
Where can i find a RUU for the dhd?

Downgrading and gold cards are for AAHK (or for manual S-Off). AAHK is retired, so unless you want to S-Off manually, you should unlock your bootloader instead. What error messages did you get with the Easy Ace Root Tool (which is an unlock tool, not an S-Off tool)? What does your hboot say? Also, please use more understandable punctuation and capitalization. It makes it easier for us to understand, and therefore help, you.

2.0 is not an hboot version...it might be 2.00.0029 or 2.00.0027 but not 2.0. If your Build version is not supported at the moment, then you should create a goldcard and flash a ruu which build version is supported as stated in the OP of the tool.
Im on 2.0.0.0.27 so just a gold card and latest ruu?

Before you can get token, you must update the bootloader first.

I'm yet to read this method in dhd forums....
Here's a little trick I learned over in legend forum (thanks to blay0), from the downloaded exe file, run it, then find the Rom.zip file extracted to temp folder.
Rename Rom.zip to PD98IMG.ZIP put it in root of sd card, reboot to bootloader, should then want to update system just say yes.
This is the method I updated my dhd hboot. No need to go through all the nonsense that ruu does

Did you create a goldcard and update your bootloader like glevitan said? You can't unlock until you have a bootloader that supports unlocking.
i dont even no wich stock rom to use for the upgrade i no about goldcard but wich stock rom please help

Just use the latest unbranded one. If you have a goldcard you don't need to find your phone's specific one.
