Can anyone say me if with this rom i can have the official updates of HTC ?

Once you download a ROM , you have a " new Operating system " ... EG: if you buy a cakes from Tescos then take it back to ASDA.. asda will tell you to bog off... same with the ROM's ...
Each ROM works with the updates from who ever created it ... (via rom manager is best )
if you try and update a " rom " that was not on your phone originally .. you could end in loop... HTC hell...
but once you do ... like a famous crisp manufacturer said .. you just cant stop !!!

Sorry but what a load of ****. If you root and end up in a boot loop, just bloody go back to the recovery, wipe and flash. If your phone really buggers up, you can use an ruu to get it back to stock and hopefully working again.
Also, rom manager is ****. It is buggy and doesn't work well with the desire. Your best off manually downloading the rom, putting it on your SD card and then flashing it in recovery.

Hi. I've just managed to root and install oxygen on my orange 0.93 desire. Still simlocked though?
As far as I know, rooting had nothing to do with sim lock. Bit you can find a sim unlock utility for desire here.

Can you really brick when just flashing a generic ROM? I thought it was just when rooting.
I did actually find my battery life seems to have improved since flashing generic from Orange, but really that could be cos the battery has had a few good charges now and is reaching max capacity, or just cos I spend less time on the phone than I did in the first couple of days.

Hi, can anyone confirm that this method works for them? And that you can do it on an unrooted phone? I want to get rid of the Orange rom on my desire but as I run windows xp64 i cant get it to work as htcsync does not support xp64 and on a windows 7 machine i have i keep getting error 171. Cheers
Could someone please clarify something...
a) would flashing the generic HTC rom require me to root my phone?
b) If i donot have to root it...would i still be able to receive over the air updates of the OS? or that doesnt matter if your phone is rooted or not?
A little confused here....

If you don't touch the radio (which you can't without rooting) then it doesn't make any difference that it's simlocked.
Hey,
I've already read through similar threads.
But as my situation differs from the other threads, I've decided to open my own thread.
Situation
- My brothers Desire isn't rooted
- He alwaysupgraded OTA (Android 2.2 hbot 0.93)
- Today my brother asked me rooting his phone too
What we've done:
We followed that guide until step 13. In other words: Basically we've done nothing except installing a driver
However:
Since then my brothers Desire stucks on boot. It's even impossible to enter the recovery mode, he can only access his bootloader menue
He already tried to put it into the freezer - without success
Suggestions?
thx

Can you get into fastboot ? Back button (not volume down) + power button.
Hi Paul,
thx for your quick answer! Yes, I can get into fastboot
Cool. First of all we need to know if you phone was branded (it had a ROM made for a provider. Was you phone network locked or it had any logos ? Do you have any idea ?
You have to download one of these RUUs. After downloading start in fastboot and run the exe file.
Here is a tried solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14137822&postcount=9
Cool! So far the solution sounds pretty easy
As he bought the Desire with a contract, it's likely branded.

So you have ClockWorkMod recovery. Now, Cyanogenmod is a ROM. It's the thing that replaces your current operating system. To install it, you put it on your sd-card, you boot in clockworkmod recovery, you backup your current ROM, you do a factory data reset+wipe cache+ wipe dalvik cache, then you select "Install zip from sd-card", then select the Cyanogenmod zip.
I usually don't respond to PM's because posting in a thread gives other people the opportunity to help, or learn from your mistakes.
Next time, post in a thread.
Thanks you.

Being new does not excuse you from using the search engine. That is part of what you agreed when you signed to XDA.
From today, the only way to root the device is to unlock the bootloader with HTCDEV and then flash CWM and SU. Hack Kit was retired 10 minutes ago.
I also tried to free my Desire HD with 2.3.5 last minute, but came too late.
Every thing sat up fine but downgrade ruu download failed naturally.
Can I also use UMT to simplify the process?
Can you give us more detail glevitan on the other method?
I've been trying to get the acekit to work by trying to source a PD98IMG-GB2 ROM but I am hitting a brick wall. I can't seem find the downgrade file anywhere.
Thanks
Look in his signature. There's a guide linked.
If I use HTC Dev/HTC Easy Unlock Tool to unlock (set S-OFF)...
Can I then follow the steps describes under 14 d) S-OFF no custom recovery?
Can I then flash an ROM out of CWM or do I need to get root first?
Sorry if I'm a bit stubborn.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31211732&postcount=396
I think this hits my request, but leaves me with an half locked bootloader, so I have to flash boot.img each time I flash an custom ROM. Meh.
Is that correct?

You can't get S-Off with HTCDEV. You can only unlock the bootloader. Then, you still need to flash a recovery. You don't need to root if you're installing a custom ROM from recovery. You will need to fastboot flash a boot.img if you flash a custom ROM.
more a self-note:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1528925
I think that will do it for me. But I would do a nandroid backup in recovery, then flash the boot.img and then install the rom.zip.
Is it possible to directly flash CWM with touch?

You were supposed to run it twice, once to downgrade and once to S-Off, not try to flash a ROM after just the downgrade...anyway. If your phone still works find just unlock the bootloader, since AAHK is retired.

There is no OFFICIAL ICS UPDATE for HTC Desire HD/Inspire 4G, HTC canceled their plan.
There are UNOFFICIAL Android 4.x build. To ugrade, i can't help, but searching and reading forum rules will help you.

fastboot flash recovery ext4.img
fastboot reboot
if everything its ok you have now 4ext recovery installed
Download the Rom of your choice, put it in the sd, reboot in recovery, full wipe and flash the Rom

Well, you haven't installed a recovery. Placing it on the SD card does not install it. You need to find a recovery.img (not zip) and flash it from fastboot. What you are seeing is the stock recovery.

Quite honestly, if the Easy Ace Root Kit isn't user-friendly enough for you, you are going to have a rough ride. It automates something that is usually done manually (unlock bootloader, flash recovery, flash root), and that procedure is the easier of two (the other being getting S-Off).
As for the splash screen, read my signature.
it didnt helped !!

D:\BackUp\cm-7-20130301-NIGHTLY-ace>fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (2190 KB)... OKAY [ 0.382s]
writing 'boot'... OKAY [ 0.943s]
finished. total time: 1.326s
And you got the image from the zip of the ROM you're trying to flash?
why are you flashing boot.img????you`re s-off.
don´t need that
just full wipe and install Rom´s zip from recovery

@Pasculas and @bananagranola : yes bro I did that many times with AOS roms for HD in this community and got seriously bad luck, or either those roms have problems, before this phone i had WFS and i successfully updated to ICS from a rom available in this community; anyways this morning I found a ATT RUU gingerbread ..... (it was a big big name ) so i just installed it and THanks Fully it returned me back to 2.3.3 .... I wish i could atleast had 2.3.5 but all the Rooting and unlocking bootloader went off ! my phone is again only S-OFF .
In a mixed and sad emotion
I'm so confused. Are you S-Off or is your bootloader unlocked? You can't be both. If you are S-Off with no recovery just flash a recovery.img from fastboot.
@bananagranola : When i purchased this phone it is s-off but wasnt rooted .. so i tried to root it by copying the clockwork rom in sd card and then to boot loader >recovery , didnt resulted in anything .. then after few attempts i found that easy ace root tool kit and went for option 1 .. and Finally got bootlocker unlocked and updated to 2.5**** (something something), cwm recovery and Rooted ... then i went for upgrading for jelly bean rom and after that i was crying what the F**K i did to my phone and TIME !!
but something i noticed that my phone is s-off but after rooting with Easy Ace Root Kit , the phone boot loader showed unlocked highlighted with pink !

Okay. First. ClockworkMod is not a ROM, it is a recovery. Second. You do not install a recovery by putting it on your SD card. Third. You install a recovery by flashing a img file from fastboot. Fourth. What does your hboot say, exactly, right now?
Ahan ...
So thats the story i was missing :!
