Steps to flash Gingerbread official WWE on your S-ON IS

Hey guys i was just right now successful in flashing my phone with gingerbread IS and i love the speed and everything !! i saw manyy people asking questions about how to flash and everything and once upon a time even i was in a troublesome state with this problem so made this thread for noobs !!
Step 1 : Download the WWE update i.e.RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.12.405.7_Radio_20 .2804.30.085AU_3805.04.03.22_M_release_187295_sign ed from the thread link given below , as it is supposed to be the latest as mentioned by a lot of members !!
here's the link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033922
Step 2 : A Gold Card, enables you to install official Android ROMs intended for your phone . Note that if you want to flash custom ROMs, you will have to permanently root your phone instead.
Creation of Gold Card :
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-make-gold-card-for-htc-desire-hd/
This link mentions Desire HD but even works for Incredible S ..
Step 3 :
Here you require the previously downloaded WWE file just run it click on " next "
as per the instructions go !!
make sure you have atleast connected your phone once to htc sync software before performing this complete operation !!
One more thing the microSd that you turn into the GoldCard can be reformatted and used again as a regular mmc !!
Enjoy your HTC Incredible S with Gingerbread and HTC Sense 2.1 !!! Special thanks to knightrocker helping me out with flashing my IS !! Click the thanks button if you like this post !!
Addition :
This is a full rom and will erase everything!
If u wish to retain ur apps just do the exact same but download the OTA from the other thread instead of this one ...

will my current apps and settings be wiped or need to reinstall everything again?

yea
your phone will be wiped off

Nope... didn't work on mine. Error 130.
Try it anyway on yours, it's very safe to try and you're not going to break anything by just trying it. Maybe I have a bad SD card or something.

Nope beta tester here ...crap hopefully soon

RUU update was interrupted with an error prompting for a "correct version" of ROM while updating signature.

@telectroguy Even i am ready to do that. Anyone else joining us?

@nikhil007mmus If we flash the gingerbread update through Goldcard...do we receive future updates...and is this official Asia update?

I don't have any place to host the download, plus it has been my experience that once you post a cooked ROM, you get all kinds of requests like if only you would add this or remove this, etc.

[Q] Incredible S OTA update today

I just received an OTA for my Incredible S and I can't see anything about it online: version number 2.30.707.1 and it was about 30MB.
I didn't find any obvious change so far. And the description was something very vague about "update of applications".
Any one knows what this update was about?

Please be sense 3!

No obvious changes meant Android version is still 2.3.3 and Sense still 2.1
Sorry.

Ooh I misread your op..
I thought you said 300mb and didn't realize you already installed it.
Desire s gets sense 3 and we get shafted

Nothing here in the UK, I'm still on 2.30.405.1

Today Desire S in GB got 2.3.5 and sense 3.0
INCS should be next IMHO

That really would make this device one of the best...
Hope to get an updated gb and sense soon.

nothing here in Estonia yet, i wonder if i'll ever get that

If they give desire s sense 3 and not us I'll definitely never buy another HTC phone

If you have ClockworkMod installed, the OTA will fail. You need to flash the HTC stock recovery back in order for the OTA to run and update successfully.

I'm from Australia, and keep checking every half an hour for updates. nothing yet.

Updated Mine and NO SENSE 3.0!
Disappointed with how slow HTC is dealing with updates!!!!!!! Super SLOW!

No way man...
I'd rather a Sensation over a S2 any day...
HTc sense is by far superior to Touch Wiz in my opinion and I have had phones with both so I know what i'm saying.

may i know how to do it
Edit
did it, thanks

Lots of guides in the development section. U need to download the stock HTC ROM, again found in development section, connect ur phone to ur computer via usb and put the downloaded ROM zip file onto ur sd card, then boot into recovery and flash the stock ROM on ur sd card following the on screen instructions. 4ext recovery is best to use. Format and wipe first. This will however put ur phone back to s-on. Or you could just wait for one of the many good developers here to cook a new ROM based on the latest release, undoubtedly better. All the guides take u through it step-by-step though.
Good luck

Cdma desire c root recovery help

It seems after several days searching the net that I am the only person on earth with this phone, who wants to root anyway. Does anyone have custom recovery for this phone so I can root? Or ever the stock recovery because I flashed the gsm cwm by mistake and now can't get into recovery. Thanks

After reviewing all the helpful advice I've received over here at Xda (I'm being a smart ass) and lots of Google searches I've learned what I need is to flash an ruu for my phone. I've seen threads here where someone decided to be helpful and posted ruu downloads for the desire c gsm, but I'm cdma. Where can I get my ruu? I was told htcdev.com but all the is for my device are kernel source, is this what I need to get the ruu? I know everyone here is much better then me, and no doubt way cooler, but please don't let that stop you from just typing a few lines and helping me out. I promise, I will bow down and exalt the new gods of XDA DEV. Thanks.

What are you trying to do? Root the phone or return it to stock?

I was trying to root and flash cm my last two phones couldn't get cm so I've been looking forward to seeing what all the hype is about. That's why I bought this phone, because I read that there was cm for it. but now that I know there is no recovery avaliable I guess I'm going stock until one becomes avaliable or I can make one. I guess if I have a working ruu to restore my phone with if something goes wrong I could still root at least
I've downloaded all the dev tools and am tracking down reading / resources to aid in the learning process. Any suggestions? I'm experienced in HTML but that's it. Thank you for responding I'm glad to be here at XDA and I will have useful things to continue on the future if I'm allowed to learn and others are willing to point me in the right direction at least.

There are 4 custom recoveries. And a stock one in the untouched ROM ( I don't currently have the link to it)
Here are the three i found:
Touch recovery
CWMR
TWRP
If your problem is something else, please clarify as i am really slow xD
As to learning process, as ive said before, start off with just testing stuff. Then move on to what you want to do first, in my case it was a kernel that is neatly organized. For all i know you might want to develop apps or themes, thats your choice :3. Have fun and ask me further questions over skype or facebook in my details.

All of those or for gsm phones. My problem is that my phones cdma. I've already tried that just not even thinking and that's why I now have no recovery. I want to root but I'm not wanting to risk it till there's a recovery. Anyway unless I get a one click to work on this phone, I don't think any do, if have to get into recovery anyway.

[Q] First time rooting

Hi
could someone give me a step by step guide to rooting for the first time on an XL Beats please? Which tools do I need, and what rom to get and so forth. I am a computer geek but never rooted before and would like not to have a paper weight htc after my first try

Tried DoomLord, but it keeps saying my Android is not 2.0, where do I get a version of doomlord that works for 4.0++ ?
