If you really want to install stock ICS RUU, you'll have to downgrade your hboot first (only possible after S-OFF). Easier would be to install an ICS custom ROM and kernel without changing the bootloader.
Is there any tutorial for downgrading and s-off procedure?
Please give me a link if u know of any.
Take a look here... Shouldn't have been hard to find with search...

hi guys...
basically i had once bootlooped my evo3d and to solve that, i relocked the hboot and reflash using ICS RUU which upgraded my hboot to 1.53.0007... (i just realized it now when i want to downgrade my hboot...)
now my htc is unlocked, rooted, using 4ext recovery, run on mwakious v11.5 with 3.28.707.1 and still s-on...
i have read some tutorials for downgrading 1.53 hboot, however all tutorials tells me to flash the leedroid custom rom first...
is it possible to downgrade my htc with current condition (mwakious ICS rom) following the wiretrick method???
must i flash the gingerbread rom???
thanks before for the answer...

If you have a gsm phone, u can update via ota to get the latest hboot and firmware, unlock it via htcdev method if required, and then flash a custom rom for example Cool-ICS. It is okay to remain s-on even this way. It is not necessary to update ota as you can also get the zip files for the updates and install it according to a custom rom's requirement.
Cheers.

As someone has asked, are you GSM or CDMA?
You state you have not updated firmware, but are running infected rom, so I am guessing you are referring to having not updated the kernel.
Do you have a recovery like TWRP or EXT4 loaded?
If so are you comfortable with how to flash a rom from the recovery console?
Help us help you.
Hi
I have a t-mobile amaze (Energy ICS ROM) with unlocked,rooted, s-off, 4Ext installed
I read the amaze bible, if i want to go back GB, all I need to do is to flash stock t-mobile GB RUU.
My question is can I just download custom GB ROM and directly flash it with 4Ext ?
Thanks

Nope, the radio and hboot will need to be downgraded to correspond or you'll end up with a soft brick/bootloop.
Hey guys I rooted this phone almost a year ago and installed a custom rom. I remember the procedure being very different from other phones I have done and very complicated. At the moment I am still "S-on" and running Android Revolution HD 1.1.0 (android 2.3.4)
My goal is to install the newest version of Android Revolution ( looking for a very stable rom, so I'm open to suggestions)
The thread mentions extra steps if you are coming from a non-ics rom.
Also Im considering the Energy rom. (this one does not specify any extra complicated steps)
In the current state that I'm in should I run the all in one s-off tool? do I even need that for these roms? what recovery should I flash? (Im currently on a CW based recovery)
Thanks in advance for all the help.
you should first flash back to stock.... then update to ICS... after that you should once again unlock your bootloader and flash 4ext recovery this time.. but you id really suggest updating to ICS before trying to flash any ICS roms..., specially since your still "S-ON"

To my understanding, flashing back to stock requires the stock recovery and a stock image.
I found the stock image here http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Amaze_4G/ROMs#Stock_ROMs
but can somebody help me find a stock recovery?

Relock bootloader. Flash RUU for your carrier in bootloader. There are plenty of threads, and 2 stickies describing this

Ok, Now that I'm S-Off, i want a Gingerbread rom. Currently ICS Stock Rooted, with unlocked bootloader.... My question is..... Since i'm S-Off, can i just find a Gingerbread Rom and flash it, or do i need to flash Stock GB Rom first, then Root, then flash Rom??? What would be my steps?

Not sure for 100% if that would perfectly work for the downgrade - but you might want to backup first and then to give it a try:

Have fun!
You don't wanna go back to Unrooted Stock Rom,no?Then all you have to do is,flash ROMs whatever you want to..Does't matter GB or IC.
Iirc to flash ruu you must lock bootloader
why for goodness sake would you want to go back to gb?
Sig:
What do you mean I can't say that??!!.. It's the fkin Internet!
ICS pains?....since you are s-off you can do whatever. Backup, download GB Rom, Speedrom 1.4, Quicksense or Bulletproof 2.5 (if you could find it) or Kumar's simple Roms. Do a complete wipe and then flash through recovery. I recommend 4Ext. Good luck.
