I have been seeing posts saying that it is still S-ON after unlocked with HTCDev, is that true? And does the version of HBoot maters?
If it is still S-ON, may I ask, can I
Root the device
Flash recovery
Flash kernel
overclock
and Flash ROM
with S-ON?
I really want to help with my friend's Buzz.
#1 yes it does leave S-on but you are allowed to root your phone and from there you can install clockwork rom managar and flash clockwork recover and then you can install roms etc.
#2 Yes you will need to change the hboot, but they will prvide it in the instructions as the wildfire has an asterik for hboot upgrade via ruu.
Acording to heaps of people are using HTC Supertools to get root. Although i have a Desire HD, when i have used this i have not got root, but thats just seems to be me
It should work fine if done correctly.
Hope this helps.

As far as i know, the only thing you can't flash is the radio. I am not sure about kernel though.

Have you tried to get into recovery through the bootloader? (Press volume down + power).

have you flashed a custom ROM or Recovery?
See ,I tried flashing clockwork mod recovery from Rom manager and rebooted into bootloader to go to recovery ,but I get the error ,and according to my friend ,you cannot flash Rom without any recovery.
The problem with my phone is I cannot boot into recovery

You can't get into recovery when flashed it from rom manager by the bootloader option. You have to reboot into recovery from rom manager after flashing it from there cause it's not permanent.
I tried doing that too ,but it has the same result.
is there any way I can put cm7 without flashing into recovery ?
Or can I delete the recovery and put it again ?
My friend told me that if you have the image file of the Rom (which can be backed up from another wildfire having cm7), you can boot into that image and install cm7 .
can this happen ?

You need to install cwm first, Rom manager just gives you a temporary downgrade to flash some older zips which use a different script to newer ones.
I believe you can use fastboot to install it, guide here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=
If you follow this guide that will get you cwm 4.x.x and allow you to flash cm7 from recovery, the latest version of cwm is 5.0.2.0 however and the img is knocking about in various places on this forum.

After 5 tries , i finally got into the recovery and installed CM7 in minutes
Thanks to all of you for help

Relock and root again.
Follow this video guide and it should help. Root again once its locked, use the same unlockcode.bin file from htc dev

Most likely if you reflash supersu via clockwork recovery it will be sorted.

1.Go to htcdev.com there you will unlock your bootloader
2. Then install CWM recovery. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZL62BUZjmgw
3. Download root file and in CWM recovery choose intal from sd card, choose root file which is in your sd card.
Download cwm from here: http://4pda.ru/forum/dl/post/1533084/CWM_Recovery_5.0.2.8.zip
And root from here: http://4pda.ru/forum/dl/post/1392456/Superuser_3.0.7_efgh_signed.zip

Hi,
I've spent the whole day trying to install a new ROM on my wildfire s.
I'm able to unlock (and relock) the phone, and was using this post as a guide to install the new rom :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1633198
I've put the zip file on the SD card, and in hboot, it's scans for PG76IMG.zip. It checks and parses PG76IMG.zip. But then there is only the usual
options. When I select recovery, I get a black screen with red triagle and exclamation mark.
I've also tried upgrading the ROM with the HTC RUU, described in the HTC website to unlock the phone (step 1).
But my phone doesn't accept the EU ROM. (I need to upgrade the software over wifi first using 'check now'). But there's no update available.
Tried several guides but none worked. Can anybody help?
some details :
- android 2.3.5 (htc 2.1, softwarenr 2.26.401.3)
- unlocked
- hboot 1.09.0099
Thanks!
Thomas.

There's a easy method,just download cwm recovery.img for wfs...
Plug ur wfs with pc
Switch off ur wfs and open fastboot in bootloader mode.
Open command on ur pc and type:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
This would install cwm recovery on ur wfs and then u can flash roms .
Hit the thanks if i helped
