Hello i have bought new htc desire.. Didnt know that i cant update software.. now my phone is:
Android version 2.2
Baseband version 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2
Kernel version 2.6.32.15
Builld number 2.10.405.2
Software number 2.10.405.2
HBOOT 0.93.0001
Radio 5.09.05.30_2
Can you tell me please, can i have root permisions? was trying to do with teppic74 manual(forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256) but nothing happends..
That guide works fine IF you have an AMOLED screen...if not, which is likely, you'll need to wait for the final release of unrEVOked to be able to root...a quick search (as per forum rules) would've informed you of this
Why do you need to root anyway?
It works on any screen...

Was sure it did but read someone else saying it didn't on Android forums so thought I'd put it on. Seems OP isn't doing it right then
"nothing happends" isn't the best report I've ever had.
The downgrade tool will flash any bootable phone with a 2.1 stock ROM that works on both screens - it doesn't matter if the current ROM is rooted, custom, stock, broken, so long as it is bootable and the sdcard works.
I have the hboot 0.93.0001, can i root it using a goldcard ?
hey guys, i still got the "RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.6_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed" on my computer, isn´t that the easiest way to downgrade a htc desire hd?
At the moment it´s:
2.2.1
Kernel 2.6.32.21
softwarenumber:
1.75.111.2
a few months ago i downgraded my dhd with that firmware and rooted it, does this still work with a that newer firmware?
my aim is to put a custom rom on it
ofc u can downgrade with that ruu, there are only downgrade guides in this forum cause it makes more fun with the hard way
you can't root builds higher than 1.32 base
great news, thanks
mmh, i got an id error? any idea? rom updated aborted...
Erroe 131: User ID Error
only follow the downgrade guide!
and you will have no problems

Do you all know that it is nessecarily to downgrade your device ROM Software to Version 1.32 or 1.72??
You CAN NOT ROOT your device with Gingerbread or Android 2.x the easy way.
Check this and download your ROM 1.2x or 1.3x or 1.7x for your current provider.
Flash it - and after all ROOT it.

he asked for the rom build version not the kernel version. but anyway this kernel version indicates a gingerbread rom version. as he said above you need to downgrade. look up jkojos post.

Please help me Im new on Android...
you cannot root any newer desire hd build, you must downgrade first, to downgrade you must temp-root first.
full guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1152233. It involves adb command, so if you're not familiar with these, get someone who have the knowledge to help you
G'day peeps,
I really didnt want to post this. Ive scoured for hours and hours though and although Ive found lots of downgrade threads from Gingerbread to Froyo the reported Radio version is always different to mine. As is the software version.
So heres my predicament. I (stooopidly) upgraded to Gingerbread but want root access!
The only way I can see me being able to get root access is if a downgrade is possible?
Here's my phone report
HTC Desire (NOT HD)
Android Version 2.3.3
Baseband Version 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23
Build Number 3.14.405.1 CL96875 release-keys
Software Number 3.14.405.1
I believe my Hboot to be 1.06 or something.
Do I have any chance at all? And if so where can I find some destructions?
Thanks guys
http://revolutionary.io
You can root gingerbread, go to revolutionary.io
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Thanks guys. I had actually bookmarked http://revolutionary.io as a possible.
Im very pleased, now I have performed an entire backup and flashed cyanogenmod v7 (stable)
Runs like a dream and vrey customisable too
Now Ive a few more questions?
I am interested in trying out a few more roms to find the "one" I think I could be happy with for a while.
Heres are the roms Im interested in:
Virtuous Unity v2.35.0
Uncommon Sense
Sense-o-Villain
and very interested in TwoPointTwo
However, Warm for example states I need to download radio/wiimax updates.
Other roms have similiar requirements. Like a CM7 Hboot rev2 etc.
I've tried to work our if its safe or not for me to instll any of these and as far as I can tell it isnt.
Thanks again for all the help
Unable to downgrade
I tried all methods of downgrading but there is no success. But I have successfully rooted my HTC Desire running 2.3.3 with revolutionary.io method + CWD + su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.
Is there anyone in this world downgraded Gingerbread to Froyo?? I also have the same radio version 5.17.05.23 , but whenever I try to downgrade it says "main version is older update failed".

what is the ruu that u used?
if u want a froyo rom, just flash a rom from the recovery
if u want go back to stock froyo (why u should do this? u need warranty?) then fastboot flash the bravo downgrader hboot from alpharev.nl then the froyo ruu
Teppic74's downgrader used to downgrade 2.2 to 2.1 regardless of Hboot. The only thing it needed was temp root which it did for you.
Obviously the exploit used to root Froyo no longer works in GB, but if it already has root, it may work.
Heres the thread.
Although there is some question about erase size 40,000 devices so I would keep an eye on this thread for information purposes rather than jum,ping in and breaking things

its reported to work millions of time..the bravo downgrader is a 0.93 hboot..and the last froyo ruu has the same hboot version...
anyway when u have s-off, with fastboot u can flash every hboot u wish (its not like the ruu, there is no check in fastboot flash command)
I tried that myself and it failed due wrong bootloader version.

mean u can't fastboot flash an older hboot over a new one? which were ur hboots?
the bravo downgrader hboot from alpharev doesn't have a downgrade protection, over that u can run every ruu to overwrite it, thats what aplharev say

I had the same problem, the only solution that worked for me was this:
1. do your backups
2. use revolutionary.io to S-OFF and CWM
2. get
Code:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe
3. run it and let it downgrade the Android to 2.2
4. root using unrevoked 3 (not able to use external links yet, google it up)
Hope it will help

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424023
I downgraded to the previous official HTC Desire HD Rom ... rooting worked after that, Now it's happily running ICD 4.0.3. Did that useing the Ace Hack Toolscript.
I tried AAHK, but it didn't like my build number for some reason. Good to hear you got yours working too.
So much faster without all the vodafone bloat on there. Boot time used to be so long that I would fear a reboot. Also running is so much faster.
Tried the newest Ace Hack? Has a newer version number, maybe it helps. It did hack my DHD with 2.3.5.
Hi , I have been having the exact same issue as you, tried most things with no luck, was wondering if you have had any success
Can those failing to root please specify which version of aahk you are using?
You have to downgrade so you'll be able to s-off, because with s-on you can't have perm root. I don't recommend you to use Ace Hack, i think misc_version method is pretty much safer, but remember you have to read everything (radio version!!!, hboot,....) in order to prevent any hard brick.
You don't need perm root you just need temp root (using superoneclick), although
you have to change the misc_version to the Ruu software your are using to downgrade (i.e 1.32.405.6). Do md5check for all downloaded files.
Good Luck.

The only working tool to root and gain S-OFF is the Hack Kit. You won´t find it here but is a matter of search only.
Unlocking the bootloader with HTCDEV is useless and besides, you leave track and therefore you might lose warranty....The hack kit works for your build, but needs to be downgraded first. Just read a bit more in the effen manual....:good:

You could try modacco visionary. I cant say it would work on the DHD, but since you are so desperate in rooting your DHD which has a defective volume rocker.....you give it a try.
I mean it worked on Mytouch 4g running 2.2. And the Mytouch 4g and the Desire HD basically have the same chipset and also share some features. Thats why devs mostly port from the Mytouch 4g and devs from the Mytouch 4g port from the DHD. So as i said you can give it a try.
But i am not responsible for what happens to your DHD.

Before i answer your question, i have a little question for you.
Do you want to just root or you want to flash a custom rom.
