[Q] 2nd Desire/BravoC not rooting?

I had to get a new HTC Desire/BravoC (camera/LED Flash board was damaged) tried to root using EVERYTHING. Unrevoked, z4root, alpharev, I can go on....
seems when the new phone came there is a new HBOOT out (1.06.0000)
can not gain Root with anything, very frustrating.
GRRRR
any suggestible ideas to try.

I've had this exact problem since USCC released their Froyo update that went out as S-On and Hboot 1.06. I've had zero luck. CM 1.6 is running stable but with stock recovery and uncracked bootloader there hasn't been anyway to load the custom rom.
Swyped using USCC Mesmerize

Right now there is no way to root with hboot 1.06, unless you had it previously rooted in 2.1 and got S-Off. Since you got it with 2.2, you won't be able to until they find another exploit for it. I use visionary+ to get temp root, but that's all you can do right now.

I had it rooted before but I didn't go through the s-off ordeal. Is it possible to go back? I mean I'd probably have to find a stock 2.1 RUU.

[Q] Ginger to Froyo downgrade, Desire neverlocked

Hi guys,
I upgraded my stock non-rooted Froyo to Gingerbread (I know... stupid). Phone is neverlocked; I know want to donwgrade back to FroYo, for several reasons, the most important one was that everything worked .
Bellow are my software details. Can you tell me if downgrade is possible, and which stock rom should I choose? Thanks a million!

no it doesn't, you can't roll back software versions using RUUs... you probably had a freak stroke of luck where the bootloader wasn't for some reason updated.
To downgrade, you need to S-OFF with revolutionary, then flash the downgrader from alpharev, then run a WWE RUU. That will do it for you.

2.3.4 S-ON - Will AlphaRev revolution work?

anyone know if AlphaRev revolution will work on incredible to turn S-OFF? (run it as incredible S or incredible 2)
I broke my phone so insurance got me a new incredible with 2.3.4 and S-ON.
Need to root!!! lol
Thanks

Not that im aware of. You can try this though http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306400, it is the only successfulk way i have seen to root 2.3.4

[Q] Bad repairman + bad ROM = what next?

So after getting frustrated trying to fix things myself, I decided to just hand the phone over to a repairman. I chose the worst possible one.
So now I have a Desire with Android Freedom by MONI69 installed with all its Sense and bloatware. And 64MB free internal memory. And doing a factory-reset does nothing (so this ROM is essentially as-new-factory-condition).
Should I...
a) just flash Oxygen as one normally might?
b) use revolutionary first?
c) something else, for which there is an easy-to-follow guide online?
I'll be upgrading in about 5 months, so I don't need to be pushing it to be all it can be. Just functional with Oxygen.

Well you can flash Oxygen but it will not really fix your internal memory issues since you are on Stock HBoot. I'd S-off first change Hboot or Oxygenr2 then flash Oxygen.

Thanks. According to revolutionary.io, that tool only supports
HTC Desire (bravo) 0.93.0001, 1.02.0001
While I'm on 0.80.000
Is that a recipe for disaster? I can probably coast on what little memory I'll get back with Oxygen for 4-5 months.

Check unrevoked.com and see if it covers your hboot.. I bet someone here can verify this.
Or you can upgrade to the Official HTC Gingerbread RUU then use revolutionary.

Unless I missed something, unrevoked just roots but leaves S-ON. Unrevoked forever doesn't work with GSM Desires.
So upgrading to official HTC Gingerbread RUU will alter the HBOOT to something revolutionary-friendly?

My bad. Sorry. http://alpharev.nl/ should get you s-off and the correct hboot to flash.
