Legend s-on
hboot 0.43.0001

Seems quite obvious, but did you do a wipe data/factory reset before installing this ROM?

As far as I know the ROM you're using is unimportant when gaining S-OFF, as long as the H-BOOT isn't 1.00 or above.
You have a H-BOOT of 0.43, so you can be S-OFF as long as you follow the instructions carefully. However, S-ON users should be able to use beta 4 anyway?

They should yes and if s-on users search the thread for s-on they will see how to do it without a bootloop

[Q] Stock S-OFF...what now?

Hey Everyone,
So I just got S-OFF via JuopunutBear 0.4 on my Rezound and was wondering if you could give me some advice. I currently have a stock Rooted, S-OFF GB Rezound. I would like to flash ICS Ivysaur's ROM or the CleanRom however I am not quite sure what to do about my firmware. Right now when I boot into hboot I see:
Vigor PVT ENG S-OFF RL
HBOOT-2.11.2005 (PH9810000)
Radio 0.95.00.1118r/0.95.00.1223r
Open DSP-v10.6.0.7611.00.0919
I would like to put the lastest firmware on instead of flashing a patch. However I am not sure which one install. Can I install the lastest?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631830
And if I install the lastest hboot do I have to unlock from HTCDEV again or Root from Amon recovery? I am thinking now I am S-OFF I dont have to do any of that.
In the end, I guess I am looking for some better guidence on how to get to the lastest hboot for ICS ROMs.
Thanks for any help!
Yes your s-off so you can install the leak you are on gb so it's a big update I recommend do the whole update not just radios or hboot as they all work best together.

Hi sknight,
Thanks for the guidance. When I download the ROM from this thread does this include the whole update?

hboot 1.58 s-off locked

hello everyone,
so, before i had hboot 1.58 locked i was actually on hboot 1.5 unlocked and obtained s-off via the "wire trick". i recently flashed the latest version of meanrom and flashed a zip with the rom that updated my hboot to the latest version. even though upgrading to hboot 1.58 kept me s-off the bootloader now says "locked". my question is do i need to be unlocked again to flash successfully?

No. S-Off is the only unlock you need. You're good to go. Just keep in mind the older ROMs not based on the Sprint ICS OTA do not play well with HBoot 1.58. Since you're S-Off you can downgrade and re-upgrade your HBoot whenever you want to flash whatever you want.

[Q] Bootloops when flashing roms with hboot 1.4 s-off

I've been trying to flash some of these new roms such as Cool ICS and SolidRom MyUI, both to no avail. I am on h-boot 1.4 with s-off. The last successful rom I had running on the phone was ICS MIUI. I had tried flash these roms on ext4 initially, then I tried twrp and both without success. Any tips/suggestions to get one of these roms to work?
Do I need a newer h-boot in order to flash these newer roms with newer kernels? If so, then how/what do I flash without losing s-off?
Well here goes nothing...going to try jbear's 1.58 hboot.
I still get bootloop after installing Cool ICS...
Getting bootloop with SolidRom MyUI as well. Could use some help please.

Yup, did a full wipe for prior to flashing every new rom. I have actually gotten SolidRom to work after installing the ICS firmware update img, but I still can't get Cool ICS to work.

If you are s-off then this should be easy to fix.
Some HBOOTs can only work for certain firmwares.
So if you want to run a ICS rom, you need to upgrade your hboot to either stock hboot 1.58, or Jbear's 1.58.5858
To upgrade your hboot, download the correct hboot from ramjet73's post here then rename the file to PG86IMG with the files extension as .ZIP
Place that on the root of your SDcard and boot into your bootloader. Accept the update, then restart your phone.
***EDIT***
I wasn't correct on some of the hboots and got some mixed up with the gsm EVO, for more info on hboots go to the link which ramjet73 has posted below.
I HOPED THIS HELPS!
MY PHONE
HTC EVO 3D
S-OFF and UNLOCKED
ROM: Team D.I.R.T. Unofficial AOKP v3.3
KERNEL: ButteredToasT-RLS v13.6
HBOOT: 1.40.0000
RECOVERY: 4EXT Touch Recovery

Then there are the newer firmwares that everyone has been having a fit over, 1.50, 1.58.0000, 1.53, 1.58.5858 (this is the Juopunutbear's custom hboot)
Those are the hboots that run only SPRINT/VM ICS roms.

You might want to read through this thread to get the correct information on CDMA hboots. Most of those you mentioned are Sprint bootloaders (the only VM bootloaders are 1.57 and JBear 1.57.5757) but 1.53 is for GSM phones only.

[Q] Is this safe? ICS to JB

Hello!
Is flashing a JB ROM on :
- S-ON
- 1.53.0007 HBOOT

I guess that after flashing I gonna have a different hboot (correct me if I'm wrong).
And how about flashing from JB to ICS?
Thanks for advices, I'm really new into android roms and can't afford a new phone if this one would be bricked.

You need to read the OP for the ROM. Usually they say what HBOOT is needed.
I can tell you that in order to go to JB you will need to S-Off first.

Sadly dev haven't mentioned Hboot nor s-off or s-on. That's why I'm asking
Btw. Isn't only difference between S-ON and S-OFF that you have to flash boot.img via fastboot usb if you're S-ON?

No. Look here for an explantion of s-on versus s-off.
At quick search in the thread you linked yieled people saying you need 1.39.
If your phone is the gsm version, you will have to downgrade your hboot to 1.49. Now in order to downgrade, you're going to need to be s-off

You're most likely going to end up bootlooping and confused. Go ahead and stay on stock rooted, and get S-Off, it's almost no risk, as failing to do the procedure right just means you have to keep trying.
you need non-ics bootloader so you need s-off first (wiretrick) then downgrade BL and then update radio.

[Q] Need Compatible ROM

Hi, I'm looking for compatible roms for my htc evo 3d hboot 1.53.007 that is s-on.
Most of the customs roms that I'm looking for requires hboot 1.49 and I don't know how to downgrade my hboot to suit them.
Can anyone give me a list or link to these roms that doesn't require me to downgrade but just use 4ext?

Any ICS Sense ROM will be fine. Just be sure to enable smartflash in recovery before you flash
