Hboot and S-Off problems

Hey Guys,
I've a problem that I want to download a room with sense UI and I've a desire GSM with Hboot 0.93 and the room needs stock Hboot, Also I found that I've a S-ON and tried a lot with a lot of solutions to make it off and I failed. I've tried alpharev.nl and revolutionary.io but with no outcome. So If you please tell me what should I do to make S-Off again as I was already made it Off and back to stock Hboot.
Thanks

Phone won't load

Hi guys, good morning.
I have a rooted HTC One X which was running good.
Today I installed an app for changing the font style. Then I arrived in a japanese/chinese characters, which I couldn't go back to the backup set by the own app.
I searched for the original font and I found this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1770479
I downloaded it and flashed it but now the phone won't load.
It sucks at the second screen of the booting process, with HTC One TM and beatsaudio logo underneath.
Then I went trying for a factory reset but still not working.
How should I proceed?
Thanks.

Flash any custom rom you want.
You are already rooted so no point in sticking with stock.

Also you should do it fast.. As your phone may ran out of battery.

I found a ViperX 2.6.0. But I'm wandering if I can flash it, because my HBOOT is 1.12, and I supposedly can't use Jelly Bean.
I also can't mount my sdcard through ClockworkMod v.5.8.2.7.
What do you mean by doing it fast? Can't I charge it anymore?

You need to flash latest cwm. Check the thread in development section.
Viper is ics based so yes you can flash that rom.
---------- Post added at 11:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 AM ----------
Cwm version5.8.4.0 i guess.. It supports mounting of sd card from recovery.
Also you can flash twrp..anything you comfortable with.

I am on my way to update the Cwm. But installing Viper doesn't have anything to do with HBOOT version?!

Yes, unfortunately it's true. I didn't think about it before coz I hadn't needed/wanted to my Rom.
But I really would like to upgrade to JB, but I really don't know how to upgrade the HBOOT. I've seen quite a few of posts about it but still don't know exactly the steps.
The cause of this topic and my problem was a few apps for changing the font style. So, I'd like to show it to future users to be extremely careful with these apps: "Fontomizer SP(Font for Galaxy)" and "Font Installer ★ Root ★".

Do:
fastboot oem readcid
And
fastboot getvar version-main
And post the results.
If you upgrade hboot, non Sense (AOSP) based JB ROMs will have some limitations like no GPS, but JB Sense ROMs will be able to work.
Also, after JB hboot, USB Mass Storage turns into MTP, which is a fair bit less convenient.

Blocking OTA update/wondering if i can update.

So I have an HTC one with stock software, but I am rooted by rumrunner but am also only s-on. The recent ota update has been bothering me and I was wondering how to block the update prompt from showing. But I was also wondering if I could update without any problems. Any help would be appreciated.

Literally the only correct answer is: soff and flash a custom rom either sense based or not. There are ZERO reasons to be on a pure stock rom.

There is a button, top-center, that says mount R/W. click it.
Also, there are no issues with installing the OTA. I am s-off, but i don't see how that it would change things (On vs off) when you are taking the .15 update

Make sure you mount system as r/w(read and write).
If Root Explorer doesn't get it done, use ES File Explorer.
I know it works with the root setting enabled and system mounted as r/w.

Niece- thanks for the reply- I just finished doing rumrunner and flashing his mod hboot and do not want to lose s-off. Just so I am tracking with you, I can take the .15 from .10 and it will not erase s-off? Thanks again!

S-off remains. Root is not broken, either.

if s-on, I don't think it sticks after reboot, but s-off I've had no problems deleting apk's with titanium backup and having it stick after reboot.

I disagree with your opinion about there being zero reasons to but on stock rooted. Only reason I want root is to block ads remove blinkfeed and run a few apps that need root....other than that I don't see the need to be on a custom ROM (no disrespect to devs and their hard work)

dhd help.cant find answers

hello,
First of all I want to mention I am throughly confused because there are tons of threads out here.
I have a H3G Uk DHD and unlocked the boot loader.
I have been trying to follow this gude in vain.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2168500
I am stuck at step 7 where it says Go to recovery advanced options and reboot recovery... I cant understand what it means.
So i figured it was to do something with htc fast boot. got the fast boot files and try to do a fastbook flash boot boot.img
But it just sits there saying waiting for device though it is connected.
I even tried putting pd98img.zip in the memory card and rebooting in recovery but it says cant find or wrong image.
Can someone please help? i am so tired of this

What do you mean step 7?
This one? "Reboot into bootloader again and plug the phone to the PC."
If so, try universal adb driver if you are in fastboot mode and your phone isn't recognized.
How to get into the fastboot menu is not your problem right? If it is, then switch off the phone,
hold vol down and press and hold power, release power and you should see the bootloader in hboot, where you can choose the fastboot mode.
Hope it helps.

Thanks for the reply. There is a pdf guide in that thread.
When I reboot, all I see is HBOOT, RECOVERY, FACTORY RESET AND SIMLOCK I think. If
I cant seem to find fastboot mode.
Are there other ways to install pd98img? Whats this gold card thing? I created a gold card and placed pd98img.zip in the root of the card. It still wont install. Any pointers?

Hi,
I'm in need of updating my HBOOT version from 2.00.0027 to 2.00.0029 in order to unlock my bootloader. Could you please refer me to the download link to get the respective file?

Haha! I actually did some research for a week and officially found the word from developers that 0027 has a bootloader that cannot be unlocked. One has to upgrade it to 0029.i exactly did that and it worked! I'm on CM11 now.
I just thought that maybe you know some other alternative solution that i might not be aware of at the moment.

Um..mine was 0027 and it worked just fine

ROM for K430Y?

I was wondering if there's any custom ROM for this model, I was seeing that there's from other models and I don't think they are going to work with this model.
Any help is highly appreciated.

Hi there @WinterSoldier , Developers are busy working on a Custom ROM. But first the bootloader needs to be unlocked and currently LG K10 K430Y can't be unlocked.
The following link just shows you the supported devices:
