[Q] Downgrade to GB - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

Hello guys,
first of all: i'm totally new to this, so please have patience with me
My device is a HTC Flyer with UMTS and WLAN, Android 3.2.1 and HBOOT - 1.11.0011. I want to downgrade it to GB, but I dont' have neither a stock rom nor do I know how exactly to do that. The Flyer is S-OFF at the moment.
Where can I get a stock rom and what do I need to do: S-OFF it first, install CWM and flash the ROM?
Thank you for your help!

[Q] Revolutionary?

Hi there,
I currently have my phone rooted and running Clockwork mod. It is S-on as I rooted this mid-late last year.
I want to install CM7 (stable) and so I'm thinking maybe I should start fresh, get S-off and then install CM7.
How do I do this? Do I have to un-root and install a stock rom, and then root with Revolutionary?
EDIT: I have an old version of H-Boot too so I need to update that
Thanks

Yes before you can run Revolutionary you need to install the AT&T official 2.2.2 update to update the HBOOT if you have an AT&T branded Aria. If you have an unbranded Gratia, then there is a thread that documents how to upgrade the HBOOT so that you can then you can run Revolutionary.
Edit: Just noticed that you are in Austrailia. I don't know if the Gratia upgrade instructions will work or not.

You can try it or the next suggestion would be to visit the LiberatedAria IRC (link is at the bottom of attn1's signature in the Gratia upgrade post) and maybe they can assist you:
Do NOT run the Gratia tool on the phone. Since you don't have a Sense 2.2 boot partition, it will soft brick the device if you use it.
Instead I'd suggest using the AT&T RUU on your phone. However you can't just run the RUU application like you can with an American Aria. Follow the directions in this post instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14953134&postcount=28. There was another user (the person who I was responding to in that thead) who was able to use this method successfully with his Australian Aria (although it was on another carrier I believe).
Thanks guys, I'm in New Zealand not Australia btw.
I used the AT&T ROM and did all the steps and am now running a nand unlocked CM7 phone
This should help, I followed it and successfully rooted my phone & installed CM7 http:// wiki. cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Aria:_Full_Update_Guide

[Q] I badly need help - Please give thread a read - HBOOT, S-OFF question

Hi guys
Sorry if this has been already answered. I tried to search for solution many times and asked in threads of ROM but people give very vague answer. I don't want to risk losing my device and want to stick with easy rooting.
I followed this guide to root my phone: http://androidforums.com/evo-3d-all-things-root/494212-complete-newbies-guide-rooting-flashing-evo-3d-roms-kernels-using-fastboot.html. I installed everything but didn't do S-OFF. One thing I'd like to share is that I did unlocking through HTCdev and also that I run Rogers phone. Currently I'm using kingcobra 2.4 ROM.
So now I wanted to install ICS but I need to install new firmware. I tried to revert back to stock ROM and do ICS update but it'd stop at HTC screen and same thing happened when I tried to install ICS rom.
So I need to install this new firmware for sure, but I have S-ON I think. Now things I need to know and perform I believe are:
S-Off
Install new firmware
-------
Now do I have to do RUU update as well? If so, where do I do that and how do I know what RUU I am running? Also I'm running HBOOT 1.49.0008 because I did unlocking through HTCdev
-------
If I wanted to simply use the Rogers ICS update, how can I get it? Do I still need to S-Off? I did full back up. Please explain very clearly.
you want to go back to stock so you can install the OTA / official ICS rom?
You can dl the RUU from the htc website. Rename it to PC86IMG.zip and let it install in bootloader
Whats the link for it please? I am on Rogers evo 3d
Also I think i have the base RUU?
The only rom I installed had this:
"
Base: Rogers RUU 1.20.631.2 HTC EVO 3D (Shooter U GSM)
Android Version: 2.3.4
HTC Sense: 3.0
Kernel: Your choice:
"
I chose original kernel, meaning not installing any. I don't think I need stock ruu now do I?
If someone can find me an easy S-off tutorial, I would be more happy to do that and stick with rooting.
I have spent too much time trying to find a way to update to ICS and I am regretting to root my phone now =[ I can't get ICS either way...
go to htcdev, enter your info and they'll let you dl the ruu for your phone.
i used s-off wire trick , try that for hboot 1.5

[Q] HTC One X+ downgrade

Dear all,
I have a HTC One X+ which has been updated to 4.2.2 via OTA and got software 2.18.707.5. After that, I have unlocked bootloader, rooted, got recovery and flashed cook roms with a nandroid backup. Since I would like to get back to stock ROM but I have tried many RUU with 1.17 but it's failed certainly. I wonder whether I could downgrade my HOX+ or not to flash a RUU with 1.17. I have tried google it out but cannot find an answer. If anyone know how to downgrade a HOX+ from 4.2.2 to 4.1, please guide me. My HOX+ has s-off already. Many thanks!
Please help me!!!!
Is there any help?

You don't need s-off to install a custom rom in many cases. It just has to be unlocked via HTC dev. Look around and you should find the post with instructions for returning to stock 4.3.

[Q] Didn't know it was an AT&T!!! Phone bricked

Hello everybody
I desperately need help to fix my htc one AT&T
I wanted to update and root it but I followed the instructions for the standard version
After unlocking and rooting,I flashed maximum HD lollipop rom.
Now the phone does not boot but I can still enter the recovery
I understood I first have to get S-off, then convert it to international version, then reflash
However I'm stuck with a non working lollipop rom (originally was a 4.2.2) and hboot 1.56 and don't know what to do.
Cannot get s-off without jelly bean and root according to some posts, but at the same time I cannot find a rooted stock 4.2.2 rom to reflash and I'm not sure this would help
Any help is greatly appreciated
