Why didn't you just leave it rooted and install one of the many FroYo updates from here or MoDaCo?
This was the suggestion i received... Any ideas what can I do to get the official release of froyo??
What HBOOT version do you currently have?
If its 0.80 or below you could re-root using unrevoked and install one of these (http://android.modaco.com/content/h...-froyo-pre-rooted-no-hboot-with-radio-deodex/)
unroot yor phone,or better
upgrate your radio,first to 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20
but you will lose root than ,you now that?!!
Wasn't installing RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4. 06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe is not enough to unroot the phone?

[Q] Anyone help: Cannot install OTA ROM after root

I have rooted my Desire in 2.1. In fact, I wanna to unroot it and install the OTA 2.2. However, I can't find the RUU of CHT HK version of 2.1 but I found the CHT HK version of zip ROM. So, I can only flash the zip file of CHT HK version, and then apply the OTA 2.2 update in the phone by wifi. After downloading the OTA 2.2 ROM and reboot, the phone can't update due to invalid signature of the file. Then, I tried to install the downloaded zip file in the sdcard:/download directory of the OTA 2.2. The error assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko") is prompted, and the installation is aborted.
Anyone can help.

Wipe everything before installing
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Already wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition. any missing?
Seems that OTA update cannot be installed if the desire is rooted by "unrEVOked". Anybody have similiar experience, and any solution?
Getting this problem too…
Im using desire from uk orange
I rooted it using unrEVOked
Then flashed a rom, which is the same as the one wvillas used, for my desire
Hoping that i can get the update from ota
But facing the same problem instead-_-
Any solutions?

[Q] How to install the leaked Gingerbread /.

I got an Orange branded phone. Unlocked, de-branded and with a gold card now. Currently running android 2.2 with software version: 2.29.405.2
I came to know about this official android 2.3 leak from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1035402
I downloaded Bravo_Gingerbread_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.06.707.0_Radio_32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08_test_183945 .zip
I do not wish to root my phone. I would prefer the HTC ROM only.
How do I install on my phone the update i downloaded on my PC ?
You have to ROOT to install that version.
Root or wait for proper Official version.
Your must root your phone to install the HTC Gingerbread Asia Rom. You should really root your phone :
- Root it with Unrevoked
- Put the zip of the rom on your memory card
- Install Rom Manager
- Flash the clockwork recovery with Rom Manager
- Install the zip
- Enjoy
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Signature Verification error
I get Signature Verification Failed.
I rooted with unrevoked.
What do i do now '?
Download a custom version based on that ROM as that is the untouched test ROM. Try mine if you wanna taster

[Q] Script fails to copy and can't upgrade HBOOT?

Hi,
I've just downloaded Juwe11's RAM script and I've been trying to copy to the system>etc>init.d but it always says Copy Fail? My Wildfire is currently running CM7-RC1
Also, I'm trying to S-Off my Wildfire which currently has the HBOOT 0.80 but when I try to download the official RUU with HBOOT 1.01 I get an error and it won't install.
Could anyone point me to the right direction please? Thanks in advance.
Copy pasting using a GUI based app like that (Atleast on a permanent basis) will need S-OFF. What is the error you are getting when you are trying to install an RUU?
Try flashing this ROM first:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877977
Once done, then try installing the RUU (WWE 2.22.405.1 EXE File from Shipped ROMs)
If it still fails, then try extracting the ROM.zip from the RUU, rename it to PC49IMG.zip and place it on your SDCard, then reboot in the bootloader mode.
Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply. Which do I flash the ROOTED or UNROOTED one? Do I just use CWM to flash those ROM's you've mentioned? My CWM version is 2.5 would that be fine?
Thanks in advance.
Try the unrooted one, and yes, it will work fine with CWM 2.5
Thanks, will do it as soon as I get home.
Sure, if it still doesn't work, let me know the specific error the RUU gives when trying to install.
Hi,
I just flashed the UNROOTED version of 2.2.1 ROM that you have recommended. I've now been trying to flash the official RUU WWE 2.22.405.1 with the radio however I keep getting an error ID 171 which says that there is a problem with the USB Connection between my phone and my PC.
This is the RUU Version I've downloaded from ShippedROMS
RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_Radio_13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_s
igned.exe
I'm pretty sure it's working fine as I can access my phone as a storage device.
Any advice on what I should do?
Thanks in advance.
Flashing RUU's seems to have lots of problems.
Try extracting the ROM.zip file from the RUU, there's a Youtube video for the same:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZe8HAFm3eU
Once you get the ROM.zip file, rename it to PC49IMG.zip, place on the root of your SDCard (i.e. not in any folders / subfolders), and then restart your phone in the Bootloader (HBoot) mode. It will automatically detect the file and start the install.

[Q] Error 140 when flashing RUU file

I am trying to install RUU_Marvel_HTC_Europe_1.30.401.0_Radio_47.10.35.30 29H_7.46.35.08_release_183799_signed.exe and am getting error140 something about wrong bootloader version.
Can anyone help?
My Current version is ARA_1.47.415.1 + HBOOT 0.90.0.0
Try checking this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835777
and let's know if it helps !!!!
I am a little confused. Do need to have s-off to be able to do this? i mean to install the Europe RUU.
Note that my phone is not locked (not branded) but has s-on
just run it but don't continue or anything then find rom.zip somewhere in windows temp files then rename to PG76IMG.zip then copy to root of memory card then flash by holding Vol down + power when completely off fast boot uncheck.
Also you have to make a goldcard for this to work if you are s-on
Thanks. Ill try that
