How to root my DESIRE which i installed 2.2 stock - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Desire has 2.1 as original stock ROM. I downloaded Official Froyo 2.2 and installed manually (not by OTA). Now i want to root my Desire to install more apps with Cook ROM. How can i do that? Do i need to downgrade to the 2.1 original?
Thanks alot
Here is my 2.2 info:
Baseband version: 32.46.00.32U
Kernel version: 2.6.32.15
Builder number: 2.12.911.1
Software number: 2.12.911.1

Same problem, with no solution
(maporcapupazza, se penso a tutte le rom che ho cambiato sull'hd... )

I've updated to froyo 2.2 by OTA and used unrEVOked 3.21 to root. Didn't get any issue at all. Just one click and then sit back until it finishes. Maybe you can also try out Universal Androot
btw, I'm still using stock ROM....as for now

Are you using the latest version of unrevoked v3.21? Should fix that kind of error i think..Redownload the last version from the unrevoked web site..

Doubt
Hi,
I'm using stock rom with my Desire.
If I make this operation with Unrevoked all the data will be lost or all the applications will stay installed in the phone?
I saw that HTC Sync must be uninstalled in PC, it's necessary another drivers?
Thanks

Offering Money to Fix Phone 2.2

Hello,
I am willing to offer someone 20USD if they can tell me how to fix my HTC desire. I was running on a Asia ROM which was upgraded to a Euro one so i could update. Upon updating to 2.2 I have no wifi, or SD and "process system" keeps crashing
The details of the phone are:
Model A8181
OS: 2.2 (from OTA)
Baseband: 32.36.00.28U_406.00.02_2
Kernel: 2.6.29-0cb9f166
Build is 2.09.405.8
Please Help Me.
You need to flash the newest radio, should fix all your problems.
You're using a radio from eclair (2.1).

With the 2.2 ota, im not sure if there is a way to downgrade, as I read one of the devs accidentally upgraded to an OTA release. This is due to the bootloader being updated to one that hasnt been hacked yet.
My 2 cents is hold tight and hope one of the devs figures a way to downgrade, that way you could install a custom 2.2 which doesnt have these issues.
Good luck, sorry i couldnt be of much use :/
EDIT- i completely missed that flakz0r lol, can it still be flashed through recovery if he used a 2.2 OTA update? if so http://android.adamg.co.uk/bravo/radio/32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20.zip
you still have the older 2.6.29 kernel too
flash the radio to the latest and flash one of the 101 roms people are releasing based on the new ota 2.2 as that should update your kernel

Did you download the ota update, or have you got root and installed one of roms on this forum? If it's ota I dont see how your radio can be the one you've stated. If it's a rom from the forum flash the new radio 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20.zip
I dont know, but it should be possible. Also, the official OTA update comes with the new radio, so i dont understand how he was able to update the rom but not the radio. That is assuming he isnt rooted, of course.

I just fixed something like this today. It's a bit of an involved process though. Send me a pm so we can talk via IM.

I flashed one of the stock roms from here to get it to be a euro one instead of asia.

Yeah, you just need the radio. Put it on your sdcard and flash it like you flashed the rom. Dont touch your phone, let it work, takes a while.
so....who got the 20 dollars?
lol i think it should be falkz0r he was the first to provide a solution...
btw...he managed to go from asian to european version through goldcard and the RUU file. Done that to my previous Hero too.

I got him through the entire process using teamviewer and MSN. Still haven't got the $20 though....
And flashing a radio isn't a solution

Think you need to watch the Noob Video Guide in my sig
revolutionary
We know, that with revolutionary we can gain s-off and root
But how do downgrade to 2.2 ?
I tried with hboot downgrader from alparev and then
flash RUU with 2.2
Procedure completed with erors - hboot changed to 0.93,
but system didn't boot up.
Latest gingerbread RUU worked out instead.
But point is to downgrade to 2.2
Any ideas?
You could try and s-off then glasgow the alpharev downgrader hboot. Then flash a 2.2 rom

[Q] Mode ID incorrect, update Fail!

Hi,
My phone is routed to IceColdSandwitch with Android 4.0.4, but I do not like it and I want to go back to Android 2.3.
I am using ACE PVT END S-OFF for the flashing process. I downloaded 2 ROMs
but both of them do not work:
RUU_Bravo_TMO_UK_1.21.110.4_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.0 6.00.02_2_release_127570_signed.exe
(Thought this should be for the HTC Desire HD on T-mobile UK but did not work)
and I also downloaded from the official HTC Desire HD page the ROM-Upgrade HTC Media Link ROM Update for HTC Desire HD (1.11.0.0)
Here I got the following error message: MOdel ID incorrect, Update Fail!
Anyone an idea what is going wrong? Could anyone point me out which is the right ROM to use for this phone?
Many thanks!

Whatever is easier, I am sure this is the unrooted version, so I would be happy
with this one. I am on T-Mobile in the UK if this makes any difference.
Thanks!
I was looking on htcdev[DOT]com, as apparantely there should be the
official Android 2.3 gingerbread ROM for the HTC Desires to download, but
I can't located it there anymore.
Anyone an idea where they have shifted this stuff in the meantime?

Buddy, the BRAVO is the HTC Desire not the Desire HD...that is why the update is failing....you have to find a RUU for your phone...the code version for your device is ACE as is for the Inspire 4G. If you are S-OFF, then find a custom rom u like, flash it and once your phone is working, then look for a RUU suitable for your phone...

You can't root without unlocking the boot loader. And check the sticky thread in the general thread by ckpv5 for rooting.
