So im annoyed with my phone today nothing seems to want to work, So I am now wanting to use the Stock 2.2, Could someone point me in the right dirrection, Currently using HBOOT 0.92 and Sense 2.2
Perhaps this would help?

What ROM are you using at the moment? If you're on HBOOT 0.92 then chances are you're on stock 2.2 already...
Currently running HTC Sense 2.2 But im looking for Android Stock, So OpenDesire im looking for, Found 2 links to sites for downgrading the boot loader, but there so im at a wall after that I can follow unrevoked instructions for root
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Ahhh right!! OpenDesire is probably your best bet as it's compiled for the Desire as opposed to being ported from the N1...I followed this thread to get back to HBOOT 0.80 and then used unrEVOked to root...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741672
Should the link on that thread not work, download this file and rename it to PB99IMG and then continue
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.zip
So I downloaded that file
Stuck it on the SD card as the name that was menetioned, Booted with volume down pressed, And now it says Update failed! So im errr confussed as to what I did wrong.
Try this one...
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...8U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed_txt.zip
I had the same issue recently but it may have been the wrong file...not tried since as I'm rooted now
That seems to have worked
So now I go about using unrevoked to get root access?
and then I go about changing to the OpenDesire room?
Links to instructions would be nice
EDIT: Trying to use unrevoked 3 and it doesnt seem to want to work
help required -.-

Hey guys well i crashed the software on my old evo due to rooting lol. IM getting a new one shortly. What Im asking is a REALLY GOOD step by step guide, with the links to download the right files, to root the 2.2 stock froyo it comes with BUT ALSO nand-unlocking it while im rooting it. The reason im asking for this was I had a hard time flashing cyanogen mod 6 after i used the root method from djr3Z from the droid demos website (It was downgrading the stock 2.2 to stock 2.1, rooting 2.1 and then finally going to a rooted 2.2 with Amon Ra recovery) Please help me! Im a noob and i would really appreciate it. Thx in advance!
Nand wasn't unlocked fully with the method you used. Many people had that issue. You can either unlock nand and be done, or wait a few days for the latest unrevoked to come out.
Here is how to unlock nand :

If you followed regaw's complete tutorial, including unrevoked-forever, you unlocked your nand and have the ability to flash custom roms. I know because I did it and am currently running Fresh 3.2. I also made nandroid backups and boot between them.
You can't jump right in to Cyanogen because you're on the wrong hboot. Cyanogen requires hboot 76, and you're probably on 93 or similar from regaw's method. Boot phone holding volume down and check it out.
I can't post links, but you can search the forums for "ENG hboot 76" and probably get the right post on how to get hboot back. Also, I believe it may be easier to find the link in the actual Cyanogen forums.
Keep in mind this downgrades your PRI to 1.3 instead of 1.40. Find the fix for that in a different thread.
Good luck.

Ok thx for that. The only question is when i get my evo and its on stock 2.2 should i do the nand-unlock, will that also root the phone in the process?
By the time you get your phone unrevoked will be out, with unrevoked, you just do a couple of mouse clicks and your done.
Also, unlocking nand is different than rooting. You must be rooted first in order to unlock nand. Just wait for your phone first, unrevoked will make it easy and painless for you.

Unrevoked is a great tool that truly makes it easy. When i rooted without it, I lost everything. But unrevoked doesn't delete anything at all. Will the new one unlock and or will you still need forever and .76 boot img?

Not sure, still no details on their site. I recommend getting the .76 hboot because roms like cyanogenmod wont flash on other versions.

yea i got my evo back that i broke. They fixed it and brought it back to 2.1. I turned it off to charge it. Whne it was done and i turned it on instead of it booting up the sprint music with the 4g symbol, it went into htc with the cursive letters popping up quietly brilliant. Anyone has had this issue? I mean after that it goes smooth im on the interface and all goes well any advice?

Sounds like you have the oldest version of 2.1 like they did a factory reset. No issue. Your phone is primed and ready for rooting. If you are going to run CM6, then I would suggest using Toast's method to root and nand unlock. This will give you the necessary eng hboot 0.76.2000 to run that ROM. Although you may want to do search through the forums for a means of unlocking nand without downgrading your PRI to 1.34_003 (current is 1.40_003). The eng-PC36IMG.zip in Toast's part 2 "How to unlock nand" will downgrade your PRI.

You are ready to rock n roll now.
First Step - Root
http://theunlockr.com/2010/07/20/how-to-root-the-htc-evo-4g-unrevoked-method/
Second Step - Unlock Nand with Toastcfh .76 Eng Bootloader
http://theunlockr.com/2010/07/20/how-to-unlock-nand-on-the-htc-evo-4g/
Third Step - Get ROM Manager
Go to the android market and download ROM Manager. Once installed, open the app and have it flash a custom recovery for you, either clockworkmod or RA.
Have Fun.
First of all i wan't to apologise because there's probably a thread about this somewhere, but ill be honest i searched and googled a lot and only got more confused. I am really lost in the terminology and everything that is availbale on this forum so i'm just going to ask here and hope for a simple answer.
I have an unbranded unlocked HTC Desire, which i rooted to the Nexus One 2.2 froyo. Now i want to go back to stock 2.1 htc sense so i can update it to 2.2. I can't use the stock roms because htc sync doesn't recognize my phone. so im kinda lost and don't know what to do.
Is it possible to do it? and if it is possible, then can some one please explain in a simple step-by-step form how to do it.
Thank you in advance!
Im pretty sure you can just extract the rom.zip from an ruu and flash it from recovery

Hello,
first of all, before doing something wrong
screen AMOLED or SLCD?
HBoot ? to check the Hboot vol.down+power
U can downgrade to 2.1 (HBoot 0.80) using a SAPPIMG there´s a thread in the forum explaining how to do it, but first check your screen type first...
If it´s AMOLED like mine i can post the RUU i used to unroot the phone and get the Froyo2.2
it's AMOLED
hboot version 0.80.0000
Ok so was mine, so i runned this RUU:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...3.00.32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed.exe
then did the OTA update
i have froyo 2.2 already on it.
will this take me back to the 2.1 htc sense?
just tried it, getting an error that the phone is not connected to the usb. and it obviously is

Why is it precisely that you wish to revert back to HTC 2.1 then to HTC 2.2 again?
You can currently flash HTC 2.2 ROMs directly, which have HTC sync working. They are different to the Google/AOSP FroYo ROMs on many accounts, most paramount with the addition of HTC Sense.

Thank you everyone for your help and use full comments. I ended up using the guide from the desire development forum, its under "[TUT]Complete upgrading guide(root, unroot, flashing ROM & updates)" sorry i cant post links yet. . It is very easy and noobie friendly.
I downgraded to the stock htc desire 2.1 and updated with the official 2.2.
Now i have 2 issues with it:
car mode enables itself every 10 mins or so even if i switch it off.
and some websites reload themselves in 10 or so seconds after loading them.
any ideas?
Thanks
Enter recovery, and do a wipe data, or factory reset, settings>sd and storage...

I purchased my Desire back in June and as soon as i found out about rooting
i used the one click unrevoked 3 method. Due to it being unbranded i didnt need a gold card i simply did so. After which i had problems installing some roms and its become too difficult so ive decided to unroot it and use it as it was meant to be until i gain more knowledge.
My problem is no matter which RUU i use following the unlocker method nothing works. I continue to get the error that none of the RUUs are suitable for my phone.
I have looked through the other posts but couldnt find an answer that worked for me.
my radio is 32.44.00.32u_5.09.05.30_2
Im running AuraxTSense 7.6.1 Froyo FRF91 by NeoPhyTe

Hi,
Is your Hboot 0.93 ?
try this RUU : http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_142828_signed.exe
Enter bootloader (vol.dw+power), then plug the phone to USB and run the RUU it should work...
Have u installed HTC Sync again after using unrevoked?
U need the htc drivers installed
Have u tried LeeDroid?
Running stable and fast in my Desire, I rooted nd unrooted the phone twice, but every time i go back to unroot status i get bored, so root again, i think u should try another ROM first before unroot, try mine : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768703
Download de ROM,
Install thru ROM Manager or directly thru Recovery, but remember to Wipe data before u install make a clean install, if u still experience any issues go back to Stock...
My Hboot is 0.93.0001
Ill try the RUU tomorrow when i have enough time at my disposal
Although ill try leedroid first just in case. Hopefully it works and is good enough
thanks for the help
Just curious, but did it work?

Hi, everyone i am new to android hope to get into it a bit though and learn some new stuff
Before i begin i hope i have posted this thread in the right place.
First of all i had a locked htc desire to orange i have now debranded it using the froyo 2.2 generic rom and unlocked it but i cant seem to root it with unrEVOked 3.3.2.
When i run unrEVOked it says "firmware is too new" although i thought it worked with android 2.2 ?
I am currenlty running this rom "RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed" and my HBOOT version is 0.93 and i also have the S-LCD screen.
Could anybody try explain why this isnt working for me ?
Thanks.
What version of unrEVOked are you using? I rooted that version with no issues using 3.31

Hey!
I have problems downgrading to 2.2, since I dont like the new update at all. Alot of bugs and etc.
So I've tried installing the RUU from the computer, also renaming the file to PB99IMG.zip and putting it into the memory card.
Ive done this a thousand times when unrooting but now I get the error that my bootloader is up to date or something like that, I don't really remember.
Anyone who can help me ?
Thanks
EDIT: I get the error 140 bootloader error
Edit: It appears you can now unlock the bootloader and gain root access

Is it possibly to root my phone and flash in a rom, and then unroot the phone to 2.2 froyo like I've always used to?
Understand that the hboot is locked with it locked you cannot do anything untill someone or team alpha and unrevoked come up with something that can..
Damnit, the damn 2.3 update sucks. Well then I have to wait then, I regret updating. I should have stayed on the 2.2.
2.3 update has just been unlocked using revolutionary!
yeah but i dont know the meaning of that.. im not used to s-off and i dont wanna brick my phone..
But if someone could do a quick guide for me for this s-off thing, and how to go back to the standard 2.2 froyo without s-off and root. By that I mean, that the phone is back to it's standard after doing this revolutionary.
Thanks
