Hi huys, i need to turn back to gingerbread, and then get ota ics, now i have last firmware and hboot. How i can do it? The ruu gb don't work cause hboot version. Thanks.
Are you s-on or s-off? If s-off, flash a lower hboot then try the ruu. If you are s-on, get s-off.

If i have bootloader unlocked i can't use pgm86img.zip
If you are s-off you can, s-on you can't. Which is why I recommended s-off (actually it might be required to downgrade your hboot).

Okay guys ... I know the rules ... do a search and some reading before you ask a stupid question.
Well, I've been searching and reading for the last two hours and I have not found an answer to this, so here goes:
I am on HC (came that way), I am S-On and I've unlocked on htcdev.com (and can easily re-lock if needed). What I'd like is to get S-OFF, but Revolutionary doesn't support hboot 1.14.xx SO ...
Can I downgrade hboot WITHOUT running the GB RUU? My preference would be S-OFF and rooted (with CWM & SU) but keep HC for now.
If not, would I be correct in running Globatron's HC->GB downgrade, rooting then running his GB->HC upgrade?
Thanks!
JB
EVO 4G
Rooted Revolutionary
TWRP Recovery 2.0
MIUI 1.12.9
Tiamat 4.1.0-sbc+
EVO View 4G
Stock HC
hboot 1.14.0005
HTC Sense 1.1
Honeycomb requires it's own Hboot, GB hboots are not compatible.
No you can't downgrade without an RUU or my light downgrade methods. Hboot is only part of the story.
I'm wondering if you had any luck Rooting it? I have a same problem, mine is also HC and with 1.14.0005 HBoot, how did you Root it?

I think you need to downgrade to GB, root and S-Off with Revolutionary, then you can upgrade back to HC with globatron's method.

Does anybody have a mirror for the HTC view downgrade RUU
I have used Unknownforce method to downgrade hboot to 1.4 and revolutionary to root and s-off. I have been on 1.13.651.7 stock rom till official ics. Can i update ota to ics with new hboot. Will i stay s-off(even though I know i will lose root), and if so can i then through fastboot (pc86img thing) install back to eng hboot. I want s-off but want to use stock unrooted sprint ics. THANKS
This has been answered in multiple threads. Next time please take the time to look.

i think you have to relock with "fastboot writesecureflag 3" and flash the OTA file

No, don't ever do this. There is absolutely no need to ever set that flag and you only risk soft bricking by doing so

I was 1.4 S-OFF with VM firmware and took the OTA. You'll keep the S-OFF. You'll still be able to downgrade and use custom PG86IMG.zip files because I did it to revert back to Sprint firmware and took the OTA again and can confirm once more that the S-OFF does stay.

ok I was on hboot 1.5 s-off via juopunutbear wire trick, updated my firmware to 2.89.651.2 and hboot to 1.58 and any aosp rom I flash bootloops. Has anyone found a way around this?
Yes. Flash the 1.4 hboot. You can find it on this site and flash it in bootloader.

Gonna look for the info... thanks:good:
I've looked for weeks and I'm still unsure about this. I can run a custom ROM being unlocked. However, can I flash a radio? or do I need to be S-off? My old EVO allowed me to do an "all in one" zip that would include ROM, radio, PRI, PRL etc. When I got my Sprint EVO LTE a couple of weeks ago, and after reading XDA forums for hours, I was pleased to know my Hboot is 1.12. It seems you can do more with this version than any other.
Thanks for this clarification.
It's easy enough to get s-off if u follow instructions. Be easier if u did, and there are people who would love to be in your shoes to have s-off on this phone.
I'm not sure about radios. I think u need to be s-off to flash just a radio. And if u stay S-ON upgrading thru RUU's will put u on perma-S-ON hboot. Or permanent until someone can come up with an exploit. And that isn't looking too promising atm.
I know 1.12 is more slack than 1.15&1.19, when S-ON, but might as well s-off while u can. Right?

what he said ^^^^^^
You are correct. You cannot flash radios if you are s-on.

You can flash radios only in recovery with s-on.
Look in this tread by Captaintrowback.

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