Hi,
So Vodafone have promised to fix their error. Does anyone know what the steps are to revert back to their 2.1 update 1 in anticipation of a 2.2 update?
During my froyo update I took a Android backup of my 2.1 system. Does anyone know if restoring this will include the radio?
If not can anyone post a live link to the correct radio files and some instructions?
Many thanks,
All the best,
Sam
Hopeful bump...
What ROM are you running at present? Best thing is to get the official Vodafone RUU and set yourself back to stock then get the OTA updates and then wait for 2.2
You want this one:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126338_signed.exe
To use it, connect your Desire and make sure HTC Sync is connected and then run the file. It will revert you back to stock 1.19.161.5 with the radio (assuming you're still on the original HBOOT)
***ALL I SAID ABOVE IS IF YOU'RE NOT ON THE 1.24 VF ROM AT PRESENT***

Hi Guys,
I recently rooted and put a custom froyo 2.2 rom onto my HTC Desire. In the process i must of lost the backup of the original rom that shipped with the phone. The phone was bought with Vodafone Ireland and the baseband is 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04 . Im not sure but the guide i used to update my phone advised updating the radio (which i think is the same as the baseband). What i want to do is to download an original 2.1 (or 2.2) Rom so i can update to froyo the offical way. Basically the rom i currently have is buggy and i wanted to upgrade/downgrade to 2.1. I dont know what i need to do with my radio version or what difference it makes.
So my questions are:
1. Can someone link me a place i can download original HTC Desire Rom 2.1 so i can restore my phone to normal and upgrade to 2.2 through offical OTA?
2. What difference does the radio make? Why do i need to update that when i install a rom?
Thanks
oh and also if i put the original rom on it does that undo the rooting? Basically i want a stable version of 2.2 that i will be able to recieve updates in the future through offical methods (OTA)
i need this too
Look in the development section, there you can find RUU's those are original roms.
If u get an original ruu and follow instructions to install Froyo will be available for its system update. This includes an updated radio.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Thanks, Does this get rid of rooting? and do i need to pick a RUU that has the same radio as mine?
this "Updates" your desire, making completely stock like, from what i know you have to choose what fits you phone, if it's Hboot .80 or that other one...
it will lock your recovery too...
hey sorry about all my noob questions but i tried the following page before
"HTC Desire > Desire Android Development > [ROM] Official HTC Desire RUU ROMS and OTA Update URL"
and any of the ones i tried dont seem to work. Is it someting to do with the fact that none of them are the same radio as mine?
Im guessing i should be trying the gsm ones. i tried to install some of the zips through rom manager from GSM HTC OTA Update URLs but they failed.
by "lock" do you mean that i will never be able to recover again and ya my hboot is .80
guys,
Can someone please help with this, im really stuck.
Thanks
hello,
after having some reception issues with cm6 i decided to go back to stock. i ruud my htc desire (unbranded, AMOLED, CID 102, HBOOT 0.80) and used this one: PB99IMG_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed
now i am wondering why i don't get the ota update to 2.2? my phone says there are no updates available..
did i miss something? do i need a goldcard?
Why don't you instead just run the latest released RUU http://www.shipped-roms.com/downloa...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.exe
I don't think there is any reason to flash an old version and then wait for OTAs
thanks for your answer!
basically you are right. i just want everything to work properly. i was just wondering, why the update wouldn't work..
moreover, i want to send the phone back to htc for repair, so i wanted to make sure everything is in its original state.
By applying 2.29.405.2 it will be in the original state as this version is the latest official one for your phone.
You bought the phone with 2.1 but you would not stay with an old firmware, would you .
i guess, you win
the thing is, that way the feeling remains something's broken.. but i guess it'll be fine!
Long story short;
Bought a used Incredible to replace my rooted D1.
Ended up being rooted and still on 2.1 update-1.
I unrooted/wiped hoping it would update to 2.2 but no luck.
I don't have a problem rooting this phone but I would like to get the official 2.2 update on the phone first.
I searched around and found a couple links;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737400
Now, according to this first link you either need to be rooted with a 2.x radio or root and flash a 2.x radio. (My device does not have a 2.x radio, for the record I have 1.00.03.04.06)
Here's another link;
http://free-pc-guides.com/news/how-to-manually-install-latest-ota-for-htc-droid-incredible-06428
Does this method appear legit? Does this update.zip provide the neccessary radio?
Usually this would be a no-brainer for me but Im confused why the first link requires you to manually flash a newer radio before FroYo...
I would re-root and flash the OTA deodexed ROM thats rooted. PM me for link. or run the most recent RUU to get to most recent release.
I have an O2 Desire that's been unbranded and can't process this OTA update. I've downloaded a version from another thread and tried going via the Recovery Mode process, but this fails... also, I note that the version in the thread posted on 27th Jan is only 5Mb, whereas the OTA is 29Mb.
Does anyone have a solution to this, or a source for the OTA download? I've seen numerous threads with the same problem, but no resolution.
Thanks!
What does it say when it fails? My first guess is that it is failing because of the CID? I am still confused with debranded and unbranded phones.
Debranded phones can't update to 2.29.405.5, even with a gold card, using the OTA. Seems Google have changed something in the update. The only way is to use the RUU
Thanks... I just didn't want to have to go through the hassle of backing up and restoring everything again
If I'm going to do this - and I guess this is a different thread - is there a way to flash the Desire to vanilla Android - no sense, no HTC add-ons etc?
You need to root first and then flash a stock Android ROM
Hey,
Did a quick search on this but I cant seem to find a thread which matches this issue.
My phone has developed an overheating issue and constantly reboots when using GPS or 3G
I had my Desire S-OFF and also with Cyanogen 7.
When I originally rooted my phone I used the goldcard method. I had since then wiped my goldcard but created another when I tried to unroot it.
When run the RRU I get the message ERROR [140] BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR
I assume this is due to being on 2.3 but how can I downgrade?
Thanks
Update :
I have used the downgrade to restore to 2.1
When I try to flash RUU_Brav2_UK_1.20.207.1_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06 .00.02_2_release_124865.exe
I still get the same issue as the 2.1 build is 1.12 and the O2 OTA is 1.20
Here's the FroYo o2 UK RUU:
http://www.multiupload.com/7YMY6RLCKY
Issue resolved, thanks Eddy
What I did :
Re made goldcard
Downgraded with the 2.2 to 2.1 tool.
Reflashed RUU_Bravo_Froy2_UK_2.14.207.1_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_144166_signed
That solved it as the build was 2.14 (greater than the stock 2.1 rom)
Hope this helps anyone else with this issue
Was gonna tell you to do that but assumed you were already downgraded
Glad you're sorted
