[SOLVED] Unable to Unroot Error 140

I'm getting the 140 Error when trying to flash
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe.
Also tried some other RUUs, without success.
Need to unroot my phone, since it Restarts randomly and needs the board replaced.
Please someone help!
Having a generic (not branded) Desire, ROOT, latest LeeDroid ROM,
BRAVO PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT 0.80
AMOLED
5.09.05.30_2 Radio
SD Card Working
Access to SD via USB working.
One day I was trying to S-OFF this phone, but all I got was the ugly Joker splash screen, can this be the problem?
This phone has been rooted-unrooted-rerooted before without problems!
Thanks!!

Why not get the 2.10.405.2 or 2.29.405.2 RUUs? If they don't work either it might be because you have a branded handset

where are these RUUs hosted? Didn't find any direct links here on xda. EDIT:Found your thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=828519
And why aren't they in this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667
will try out and report.
the phone is for sure not branded, was preordere on amazon.de back in the good ol' days and is running Lee's ROM.

Check your build number, from there you can see if your phone is branded or not.
BTW: have you wiped everything during rom flashing?
for example,
I have (originally) : 1.19.161.5, and that is a vodafone UK branding.
I have to use : RUU_Bravo_Vodafone_UK_1.19.161.5_Radio_32.36.00.28 U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126338_signed.exe

Why not use the 2.33.161.2 RUU in ROM Development?

Thanks a lot Guys, that was easyier as I thought and saved me a lot of nerves.
I simply flashed 2.29.405.2 RUU and everything was fine!
I just dont unterstand why the stiky thread in the Development section is not being updated with these RUUs. It would have saved me many hours!

Because everyone goes to shipped-roms.com for their stock RUUs

No problem with that one.
If I am not mistaken :
It is just that the one you posted will update to Android 2.2 and H-Boot 0.93, while my post ís still 2.1 and H-Boot 0.80.
For comfort reason during rooting, I choose the 0.80.

But seeing as rooting on HBOOT 0.93 has NO issues at all it makes sense to use it

[Q] post s-off H-Boot issues

I have this strange problem.
I did the s-off using the alpharev. Once that was done, I experienced random reboots and phone lockups.
So, I decided to revert back and used the 2.29.405.2 ruu to get back to stock htc image.
Now, I am unable to root my desire using un-revoked. The phone freezes after doing the hboot and pre-boot sequence. I tried downgrading my hboot and I continue to experience the same problem.
Is there a way to get the phone to factory conditions ? I use a MAC. Can I use the RUU exe instead of the PB99IMG.zip ?
Has anyone faced a similar problem before ?
Any leads/pointers would be appreciated.
And yes, I am not a newbie and can find me way out through the adb forests !
Thanks
Shyam

bootloader should not change things about rooting.
have u checked hboot what does it tell now?

Thread moved to Q&A.

0.93.0001 S-ON is the hboot version that I get.

RUUs are Windows applications. You could just get the 2.29.405.5 PB99IMG and flash that to go back to the latest stock ROM

I am unable to root the stock 2.29.405.2 using unrevoked too !! The phone freezes after doing the pre-boot sequence.
Shyam

Are you using the current version of unrevoked or just some old version you found on your harddisk? Older versions could not root froyo based roms.
€: Perhaps they also patched something in 2.29.405.2 that prevents this rooting method.

I've had no issues with 2.29.405.2 using unrEVOked 3.22 - not tried since going back to 2.29.405.5

Help getting my desire back to unrooted state

Hello
I am about to sell my desire and would like to get it back to a non modified unrooted state (ill just leave alone my S-OFF if possible), so that when i sell it, it will be able to install OTA updates and such.
Also i would like to get the original recovery back.
Before i modded it it was unbranded, so no rebranding needed.
Thanks in advance

This tutorial should help:
http://theunlockr.com/2010/06/07/how-to-unroot-the-htc-desire/
And as far as I know (never tried it tough) it will revert back also to S-ON.

okay i tried doing this, but the installer throw a error 140 says BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR.
My bootloader says BRAVO UNKNOWN SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.75.0000
The updater says from
Version:
1.21.405.2
To
Version
1.15.405.3
so prob i need a newer installer but where do i find that?

Use this, those are very old Android 2.1 versions...

It's 2.29.405.5 - the latest unbranded WWE RUU

Unroot with RUU

Hi, I am from India. I have rooted my DHD(unlocked) using AAHK. my DHD is now Ship-OFF, Eng-OFF... currently i am running ER3BUS Final (Sense3.5) rom.
I want to return to Stock due to some reason. I have downloaded RUU " RUU_ACE_SENSE30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_225512_signed.exe ".
My first question is...will this RUU work in India (though its WWE edition..still i am confused).
My second question...running RUU will update - Ship-ON / Eng-ON ??
I want official HTC update after unrooting it...
Please help me guys ...............................

You need to downgrade to what you had running before you rooted. AAHK can do that too. After that, use AAHK again to flash the RUU which will bring the phone back to stock, S-ON.
