[Q] S-OFF Problem

Hello,
I've look through many threads and also googled the problem.
So perhaps, someone can help me.
I've rooted my desire with Unrevoked3. I got SU right on my desire.
But I can not get S-OFF.
In the bootloader I see S-ON.
So i can't flash an new HBOOT image on my phone.
So what's wrong?
Can someone help?
Greetings
First have a read on http://alpharev.nl
Here is the video tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016084 (step four)
Just remember when S-OFF'ing you need a stock rooted froyo ROM, no 'data2ext' ROM's or it wont work.
What do you try to get s-off? With unrevoked you cannot set your phone to s-off, you have to use alpharev:

Ahh...
So, i have to use a rooted stock ROM like the one from MoDaCo.
And then I ccan flash the hboot image.
Is that right?
I am new as well. But I think the safest way would be to flash your RUU and start from scratch. Here is a video showing you how to flash your RUU. After you have flashed the RUU, read this guide. Follow everything step by step without skipping.
Dont forget to:
- Tick "Install unknown sources"
- USB debugging on
I followed that guide above and rooted my HTC desire, S-OFFed it, flashed the ROM perfectly. I got no issues at all. And it was easy to accomplish.

No, you have to set your phone s-off first. Instructions are given on alpharevs page. You can also follow instructions in the linked video.
After your phone s-off, you can flash a different hboot.
But remember, it's very easy to brick your phone with flashing a hboot if you do not care/know what you are doing!!
Hey guys, I did it..
Thanks for help.
For everyone with same starting problems here a short description.
1. Make a goldcard with the GoldCardToll
2. Make a downgrad with the downgrad23 tools
3. Unroot with unrevoked3
4. S-OFF with the iso from AlphaRev
5. Install the hboot you want.
That's it..

i need steps to follow
1 - root
2 - S-Off
3 - Official RUU
Etc , just the steps to follow and then i will read it's topics...cuz i don't what should i do first
1st of all to root ur phone u need to downgrade to 1.32 follow this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003
then to root i personally prefer a command line approach as u have more control vs an automated tool on what its actually doing, so try this guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#VERIFY_.28using_.22gfree_verify.22.29
all the links to files u will need are in the guide.
after that u will be downgraded , rooted , S-OFF , super cid and clockworkmod installed.
for the clockworkmod step id flash Version 3.2.0.0 from the forums, instead of the 3.0.2.5, in the guide, as its the most recent official version.
link to CWM 3.2.0.0 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1003723
do a Nandroid backup and install a ROM , dunno bout the official RUU roms as i dont use them myself, and if ur going to all this trouble to Root ur device, u might as well try some of the excellent custom ROMS, alot of the Sense roms r very close to stock and support arabic.. Ive used Leedroid & ARHD which are sense based and try'd Miui roms and currently back using Cyanogenmod7-Nightly

[Q] Need help installing ARHD

Ok so I have a s-off hox
It has hboot version 1.36
Android version 4.1.1
Software number 3.14.720.24
I want to install ARHD on my device
I want to know how to root or install ARHD
I have done a lot of research for hours and now I am all confused
Thus asking for help
1: unlock the bootloader
2: flash a custom recovery
3: make a nandroid backup (not mandatory because you have s-off)
4: copy the rom.zip to the phone
5: flash the boot.img with fastboot commands
6: make a full wipe in recovery
7: install the rom.zip via the custom recovery
Enjoy
Thanks for your help
I want to know why is it not important to make a backup because I have s-off?
Also I want to know what is Firmware package
On ARHD thread it says that I need Firmware package
And Will I be able to revert back to ics once I install ARHD?
You have a supported hboot so no need for firmware stuff
You have s-off so you can downgrade to all hboots and software.

Hi, please try to follow the below steps:
1- Download the rooted GB rom from the below links:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/75c4qkci2cl4jbt/DHD_WWE_3.12.405.1_STOCK_rooted_by_nitr00.7z.001
http://www.mediafire.com/download/82gaj5rfosp9p6c/DHD_WWE_3.12.405.1_STOCK_rooted_by_nitr00.7z.002
2- Follow the guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2221039
That should take you less than 5 mins to get s-off.
Hey,
If you want to root your DHD you need to follow these steps :
1. Update your HBOOT to 2.00.0029 using this guide : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40744357
2. Then unlock your phone using HTCDev.
(From step 3 and after it's better that you follow the guide here under)
3. Flash CWM or 4ext recovery.
4. Flash SuperUser
5. Reboot and your done.
(This is not for S-OFF, S-OFF has became kinda hard because AAHK retired)

[Q] I have TWRP recovery..... Want to flash philz recovery.....

Can someone who is experienced please give byte step by step instructions on how to go about this? I did it before, but somehow forgot how to do it. I have the AT&T variant to be specific..... And also in order to flash the skydragon gpe Rom, I need to be s-off correct? If I'm wrong please let me know.....
Thanks in advance!!!!!
1: there are toolkits or just by fastboot commands. refresh your memory by reading some fastboot tutorials.
2: no you do not need s-off to install skydragon. you need to be on the latest firmware/hboot (3.19) but i think thats described in the opening post of the ROM so read up in there too
