do you have a security warning??

if your s-off,the 3.14 ruu will work fine. if your s-on,your SOL,looks from the android info text document in the fimrware like the main version is up-ed to 4.03 to match the build update.

if yours s-on,you cannot go backwards in firmware,only the same or upwards.

if youre s-on,youll have to either:
1)wait for 4.03.605.1 ruu
or
2)re-unlock with your original token. you can then restore a backup,or flash a new rom.

what were you trying to do,exactly? as i keep saying,be very careful what leaks and updates you run on as s-on device,as you cannot go backwards in firmware if you decide you dont like the update.

edit:
if youre s-off and wanting the ph98img of 3.14,its available on the shipped roms link,and is likely a much faster download

 

from the other thread,i thot you had updated completely to the world phone 4.03.605.1. can you verify this? do you have a backup of it?

in a nutshell:
1)remove any PH98IMG files with an sd card reader
2)boot to hboot. select FASTBOOT from the hboot menu. plug in the phone
3)open your cmd window,cd to the adb folder(cd c:\mini-adb_vigor if you used my guide)
4)fastboot devices (to make sure your connected. should get seril number back)
5)fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin to re-unlock. chose yes,push power. phone will reboot,and if you were on a working rom,it will boot to a factory fresh reset of whatever that was.
6) if it doesnt boot,thats ok. let get as far as it will,then pull the battery.
7)repeat step 2
8)fastboot devices
9)fastboot boot recoveryname.img
10)restore backup,or flash rom. if the backup youre restoring is gingerbread,then youll need to flash the new firmware patch immediately after the restore. you should be able to restore any ICS bckup with no issue.
11) collect underpants
12)???
13)profits!

and if youre not a southpark fan,ignore steps 11-13 and just reboot

hope that helps

 

awsome! glad you are up and running. what sort of workaround are you looking for? are you having trouble with the 4.03.605.1 update? ive been running it for some time and had no issues with it... while battery life sucks,it actually is better than the other stock roms ive run

 

yup,it was either the rom,or the install process. ive been on 4.03.605.1 for several days now and havent had any issues... the battery,while still crappy,is actually better than most stock roms. i get better than i did on the old ICS builds,and GB.

my solution to crappy battery life is an external cahrger and more batteries. i just go till the phone dies then pop in a new one 2 usually get me thru the day

i personally think s-off is the best scenario for any phone what folks want to mod. s-on htcdev is a pain,but does have one big advantage:

its next to impossible to brick an htcdev unlocked,s-on phone with software flashed beyond recovering.

s-off has many more advantges,but with much greater responsability. you need to always understand wha your flashing and use caution. always use md5s to check the integrity of downloaded files. dont use a file the poster wont provide an md5 for. a bad hboot or radio flash can,and will,brick your phone beyond recovery,so you have a much greater sense of responsability.

for the above reasons,and the fact that the procedure is a lil scary to some,i try and not push my s-off beliefs on to others. despite the fact that its much,much better IMO.

my advice if you want to try it:
-first and foremost,use a small spare sd card. the process wipes your card,and its possible the backup the program makes wont get properly restored. all you need i s a cheap 1gb card to keep your good sd and all its info safe.
-the wire isnt really that important. i used a piece of thin wire i had on a roll i the shop,im not sure what the gauge is,or what its intended use is. the biggest issue with the wire,is make sure when you stick it in the hole(pin 1) that it goes straight down and makes contact with the little dot underneath. its easy to get the wire crooked,so its not making a contact. no matter how many times you do the wire trick,it wont work if one of the points isnt making contact i would also personally avoid anything thats hard,or sharp,to avoid scratching up the board underneath.
-the count is supposed to be 1 3//4 seconds "one onethousand" sounds about right,tho i believe i did it a lil quicker

after becoming s-off,i strongely recomend,to avoid issue:
-run an ruu containing whatever firmware you want to run.(make a backup if youre on something you want to return to)
-with the stock recovery on the phone, chose "clear storage" in hboot
-give the phone a few minutes after boot
-reboot

once yovue rebooted a second time,you can reinstall recovery and install root files,or restore your backup,or flash a rom,or whatever. but doing those things,along with not using your normal sd will help ensure that
1)your sd doesnt disapear in recovery
2)your sd and internal storage dont disapear from the booted OS
3)you dont experience flaky,unstable data

just rermember that if your backup was of a rom that was using the "old firmware patch" it will no longer work as is. after restoring the backup,simply reflash the rom without wiping data,so it will work with the newer firmware.

holler if you have further questions
