could someone kindly help me out with getting my evo unrooted, s-on, fully stock? I rooted originally with unrevoked. It seems like this method is outdated since the release of revolutionary root method. Never had to unroot before. Hopefully someone can help. Currently on digital karma's v9 rom. Here is a ss of my bootloader with hboot info, s-off info and other info (if needed to help me). Its hboot 2.10.0001 radio 2.15.00.01.15 (pic is hard to see). Looking forward to getting this done. Tia, any and all help appreciated!

Your problem is that you have the wrong radio. The link to the tutorial that was given to you is only going to work if you have a compatible radio if you rooted with unrevoked, and not Revolutionary.
If you insist on turning the phone to S-ON, here are all the files that you would need, in order. They all should be placed on your sdcard. The first one should be ran through your bootloader to give you a custom recovery if you don't already have one. The second and third should be flashed through the custom recovery in order. That should give you S-ON. The last one is just a stock ROM which should be changed to the name PC36IMG if you should need it.

So when I bought my vision I accidentally upgraded it to 2.3 and there came the painful downgrade and root. So I flashed some sense 3.5 roms and everything went nice and smooth. Except the games.

Could it be an issue or something with the downgrade and how the hell to resolve this on Vision?

Do you have a G2 or a DZ?
Sounds like you have a G2 with a DZ hboot, you'd need to flash a G2 hboot.

Irrelevant, any g2 rom will work with the dz hboot. Status 7 error means that when you flashed the rom the updater-script could not correctly identify your device as 'vision'. What this normally means is that you are flashing a rom that is not designed for your device. Can you give us a link to the download please

Im not a complete noob and I know I can change the Glacier one, but the Mytouch what is basicly Glacier is there forever.....?
what rom is that ?
All the info in that screen is defined in build.prop. what it looks like is that you are using a port which has been done half arsed. Which brings me back to my original conclusion that you got the status 7 error because you flashed a rom that was not designed for your device

making a change in the build prop won't mean the from flashes correctly. If he is getting a status 7 error it means the rom he is flashing is not for the Vision. The info in about phone has no play on what goes on in recovery.

I changed all of the fields from glacier to vision, but it still not flashing.
I would like to notice, that when I flash I get weird errors with texts that I saw in the build.prop. Something like ro.device.name==vision.... Basicly it says error getting prop... Or something with the prop... How can the Rom be not for my device if I downloaded it from Official cm page... For VISION.
Something is clearly messed up here...
Sent from my vision using XDA
ok, i would do the following:
1. download cm7 from here (if you havenĀ“t already) and put it on your sdcard:
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=vision
then download superwipe and pu it on your sdcard:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044992
enter recovery (power & volume down) flash the superwipe .zip and afterwards wipe data & cache & dalvik cache through recovery
then do a fresh install (cm7)
good luck and if it worked pls hit the thanks button
This is getting more and more interesting... I can't install superwhipe. I get the exact same error I get on cm...

Ok...your device is rooted right.....So then you can choose by your self witch rom you want....for ICS ..i'm running westcrips Resurrection Remix v1.0....
Works like a charm..try this i think it's the best ics experiance you can get on the sgs2..it's real smooth..and the battery simply amazing.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854
IMPORTANT make a titanium backup of all your apps.
And with safe backup ....backup your data ...like calendar contacts etc.
Before flashin....make a nandroid backup..for that go into custom recovery and run a backup.
Just in case if something goes wrong.

A friend of mine recently purchased a Wildfire through the Hawaiian cell provider Mobi PCS and I offered to flash CM7 for him. However when I checked the hboot version it was 1.30.0000, looking through these forums and through googling I can only find passing mention of this hboot version. Does anyone know if the posted hboot downgrade process works for this hboot, or is he stuck S-on? Can you flash CM7 to the Wildfire without S-off?

hmm. a new wildfire hboot in the wild. this is unexpected at this late stage for this device. but given that it is released so late on it should be htc dev compatible. this will not s-0ff the device, but it will unlock the bootloader and allow you to flash cm7. just unlock the bootloader with the link above. then fastboot flash clockworkmod recovery 3.x.x.x then flash the cm7 rom. rembering to back up!!
this will void your warrenty
also for confirmation can you please post a pic of the hboot for me please

I heard there was a 1.30 software version for the Wildfire S, not the HBOOT, because a new HBOOT at this stage of the Wildfire would be extremely unlikely, unless my April Fool's joke came true and HTC are releasing a late GB for the Wildfire!

I hope you didn't tell him your sea username, otherwise you would have had a big dirty troll trolling you every day...
There was this guy on the One S forums who claimed to have S-OFF on his phone, everyone went crazy and then when someone asked him to post a picture...
Guess what? It said S-ON.

Sorry it took so long
Sorry about the wait but I've managed to get a picture of the hboot on the phone in question, shortly after I took this I unlocked it and flashed CM7, my friend couldn't be happier, thanks heavy_metal_man and all that responded.

Well I didn't realize that there were two different models of phone under the same name, last time I go by the release name... In any case I didn't download the ROM or recovery my friend did, I'll talk to him later and see what we flashed because the phone was working fine when all was said and done.
and in the end it's a cousin... WILLY THE WILDERBEE
sorry you guys on Tapatalk/XDA - won't look so funny there...
This tool will allow you remove the Tampered flag from your bootloader. It will also allow you to easily Lock and Unlock your Bootloader directly from recovery.
No root required since it is run in recovery, however you still must be S-OFF.
Before using this tool you need to be sure you are using the latest version of recovery as the M7 U/UL/Verizon TWRP requires at least version 2.6.3.3 for this package to work. The current downloads for both CWM and TWRP can found below:
The latest M7 Verizon TWRP can be downloaded HERE.
The latest M7 Verizon CWM can be downloaded HERE.
Saying this again in case you missed it: YOU MUST BE S-OFF!
To use the tool simply copy the zip file to your phone and then boot to your custom recovery and choose install. Then browse to where you copied the file and select it. The aroma installer will begin. Follow the steps outlined in the pictures below and choose the options you want to run.

}
Now you can just keep this file on your phone and Lock and Unlock at anytime without a PC and without losing data.

S-trace for originally discovering the location of the lock status flag. See this thread.
scotty1223 for his ADB shell commands. Threads HERE and HERE. Scotty was also very helpful to me in understanding some of the default values.
Just to be clear I did not just copy and paste scotty1223's commands into a aroma installer. The echo command can be problematic in aroma, so I developed original code for all four commands. The end result is the same in that the data in the partitions is changed as needed.

***Troubleshooting***
If the installer stays on this screen fore more than a few seconds, then it means you need to delete/format cache. This can be done within both recoveries. You may need to reboot recovery after clearing cache and begin the installer again. This seems to happen more on CWM than TWRP.
If the installer runs but your bootloader doesn't change, it is proably one of these things:
You are not S-Off
You do not have the latest version of recovery (I recommend TWRP)
I can vouch for this working with the latest TWRP 2.6.3.3.
Thanks for the hard work!

Per the OP, this requires the latest builds of TWRP or CWM, which are touch enabled.

I read in the TWRP forum that 2.6.3.3 has a known bug with charging the phone, and some are recommending not to use it right now.
Have any of you guys that are running the latest version know about this bug, and if so has it been an issue enough to revert back to 2.6.3.0?
Sent from my HTC's darkside.
I flashed 2.6.3.3 Friday night and have not had noticeable changes in battery charging behavior, battery drain or performance issues in general. I seem to remember Tue charging bug brought up by andybones being something to do with charging the phone while powered off, causing the notification led to turn on and not reboot without going to bootloader. I don't turn my phone off so I haven't had the problem yet. Perhaps reading the other forum posts regarding that issue and posting in the original development forum on the TWRP thread would get you more answers.
Edit: I read the thread, and hashcode has recommended not to use that version of TWRP until the charging bug is fixed. I still haven't noticed it so I am not changing back.

It should work on the non touch version of CWM.
I have not noticed any issues with the new TWRP either regarding charging.

No, this tool is for the bootloader only.
You need to modify the hboot in order to remove that.
@santod040 already has one here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2481277
While I could build an option to flash that modified hboot during the install, it is better to to that manually so you are aware of your hboot. If you S-on with a modified hboot you will end up with a bricked device.
Same reason I don't add an option to turn S-on (that was asked for) because I don't want users to brick phones because the mod is too easy and therefor overlooked when returning to stock for some reason.
I may add the option to install the GE hboot with the dark unbranded bootloader, which doesn't have any red text in the future. However that hboot has yet to be tested on Verizon.
Thanks
In what circumstances would one want/need to toggle the lock state of the bootloader?

Possibly to return to stock for warranty claims. This is just a nice graphical interface that doesn't need command line or a computer. Just another great option that our devs provide us!

You need to have an unlocked bootloader in order to flash any recovery, stock or custom.
Also sometimes there are promotions like the latest Google drive 25GB one that requires a locked bootloader. Also some rom.zip and firmware packages require a locked bootloader on the GSM variants, but I am not sure if that is the case for Verizon.
Hi, I recently buyed HTC one with sense 5. Can somebody help me to update my device to sense 6 legally. I mean official update. I'm ok with rooting unlocking bootloader. Etc. My last device was Samsung galaxy custom slimrom But in the end I want HTC with official stock version.
I found one updatepackage.zip and try to update it with recovery. But was unable to get in recovery mode. After selecting recovery in bootloader HTC sign appears and screen turns black for few seconds and it restart the system.
Can anybody guide me? Thankyou in advance

S-off is more dangerous than a regular unlock. When the secure flag is off, you can flash anything to any partition. You can even flash unsigned things like decrypted ruu files... Which is what you would need to attain sense 6 when not on Verizon towers. We do not have an official sense 6 ruu from HTC directly, only the decrypted one which is why you should stay s-off in case you would need to ruu again.
For the ota zip, you would need root anyway to put the file into the correct directory to update. Might as well just s-off and ruu. It would be less of a pain than moving the ota file and setting correct permissions.
Sent from my HTC6500LVW using XDA Free mobile app
S-off means security off this means you will be able to flash any ruu even if it is not encrypted, ill recommend you s-off it as it will be easier to update your phone in future s-off dose not root it's just a security feature to protect phone from modifications
hmm. Got it. And If I update and then s-on it. What will happen. Will it brick my htc?

No, it will not, but I highly suggest starting s-off until an official encrypted ruu is released. If you ever run into an issue and need to ruu while s-on, you would be sol.

S-off will allow you to do anything. Flash custom recoveries, flash firmware, flash roms, flash zip packages(like root).
Use weaksauce to gain temproot then firewater to get s-off. There is a pinned thread on how to do it in the original development section.
Once you do that, you can flash any rom you want, I personally recommend Santod's GPE 4.4.4, or CM11, or Nusense 6 depending on your taste.
Also - there is no reason to EVER go back to s-on. S-on just means you don't have access to the system. Being s-off will not prevent you from doing anything with the phone, and will allow you to load any RUU file in case you f up your bootloader somehow. The ONLY reason to ever go back to s-on, once you attain s-off, is to return for a warranty replacement if you end up with a hardware defect down the line.
