[Q] HTC Desire problem - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I post this message for my friend whose account isn't yet verified.
Hello,
few months ago I tried to root my Desire with my friend, but it didn't seem to go according to plan and we thought that this isn't working and decided to leave the rooting process.
However, now I'm not able to update it to Android 2.2 OTA, and not even by manual update.
So if you guys could tell me what's the problem because i don't have a clue.
I'll write down the software information if it helps, could this Desire be rooted now anyway? And if it is, what should i do?
Firmware version:
2.1-update1
Baseband version:
32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2
Kernel version:
2.6.29-82821fb5
[email protected]#1
Build number
1.21.405.1 CL172503 test-keys
Software number:
1.21.405.1
Browser version:
WebKit 3.1
Thank you for your help!

It may be solved now, titanium backup is working when i installed busybox. So my phone is rooted and thats why i can't get OTA updates

Issue 2207: Net access fails after leaving WiFi

Hi
Can anyone confirm this has been sorted in any custom roms ? It's a real pain, I have HTC desire.

Thanks

I actually posted there, but at least for me, this issue has been fixed by an update. Hooray.
However I don't know whether the update itself fixed the problem, or the process of updating (reconfiguring APN as some people suggested, bla bla). So: "It works on my machine."

Nothing there on screen while swithcing on desire

Hi,
I downgraded my HTS desire to ROM version 1.21.405.2 with the help of:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256
I successfully downgraded to 1.21.405.2 but then i want to come back on INDIA_ASIA rom. For this i flashed rom:
RUU_Bravo_hTC_Asia_India_1.21.720.4_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_127705_signed
This is it... it first locked on the HTC screen and then i pulled out the battery. When i tried to restart the device i was having nothing on my screen. Only a black screen is there now, when i switch it on i feel the vibration but nothing on screen.
Help me out of this i was just looking to get on my custom ROM but now i am without my desire.... :-(
most definetily you have an SLCD screen. search the forum how to unbrick slcd Desire.
Hi mariosraptor ,
Thanx for your reply.. but i again did the same procedure of downgrading to 2.1 and now my desire is running fine Can u please guide me that which will be the best official ROM that i can use on my desire so that i am not bricked again and can use it for warranty too... I purchased it from India and also when the updates were available for my new phone it was coming with HTC_ASIA_INDIA...
Current ROM:
Firmware version: 2.1-update1
Baseband version: 32.41.00.32U_4.08.00.09
Kernel version: 2.6.29-0cb9f166 [email protected] #1
build number: 1.21.405.2 CL174215 release-keys
software number: 1.21.405.2
browser version: Webkit 3.1
Thanx in advance..
There isn't one
Can u explain???
Explain what?? The RUU you're after doesn't exist so the only way you'll get it working is to:
1. Flash the older AMOLED-only RUU
2. Find the thread on here telling you what to do when you can't see the screen to flash the OTA update manually and hope it works
Otherwise you'll have to stay on the WWE ROM until an RUU for your region is released

[Q] Advice please on phone software information

This will sound daft, and I apologise, I feel like I'm halfway competent in this, but not 100% sure!
My current phone settings are as follows:
Android Version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: 12.28e.60.140ffU_26.04.02.17_M2
Kernel version: 2.6.32.21-g3d0aaff
Build number: 1.72.405.3
Software number: Android Revolution HD 2.0.4 by mike1986
Browser version: Webkit 3.1
So is there anything that I'm missing mainly? I am unsure of the 1.72 OTA ROM has been installed - I assume so, cos I have a build number which is the same - or is that just a coincidence?!
Am I missing anything in any of these areas that would improve my user experience? Apologies for such an open ended question, and I hope I don't get open ended replies
Thanks
Everything seems to be fine. You're running Android 2.2.1 with software build 1.72.405.3. The OTA has been applied successfully.
Thank you
It's just reassuring to know I'm there or there abouts.
I've "thanked" you for being so kind to reply to me

[Q] Have I CID unlocked my phone? Will I get OTAs?

Hello all,
I recently purchased a T-Mobile Desire HD. I got it SIM unlocked and then managed to create a goldcard and used it to flash a HTC stock ROM, which is working fine. What I'd like to know is whether the phone is now CID unlocked or whether I'll need to use the goldcard again to update the firmware? I'm aware that I could simply try confirm this by flashing a stock ROM again, but I've already entrenched myself into the phone. Also, will I be able to get OTA updates?
According to the Software Information screen, I have the following:
Android version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: 12.28e.60.140fU_26.04.02.17_M2
Kernel version: 2.6.32.21-g3d0aaff, [email protected] #1, Wed Dec 1 17:09:51 CST 2010
Build number: 1.72.405.3 CL296490 release-keys
Software number: 1.72.405.3
Browser version: WebKit 3.1
Thanks

yes if you s-off with the radio s-off and super CID .... but if your rooted with a custom recovery you can't flash ota updates ..... they fail

Rooting from 2.3.3

Gave up on my HTC Desire HD a while ago and went to the Optimus Black. Anyway coming back I have no idea how to root my phone from 2.3.3 Branded on Vodafone Australia. Previously before I left the DHD I tried Visionary and failed since it wasn't running Froyo. Any solutions? (Preferably without Downgrading first)
Android Version: 2.3.3
