I just bought desire 1 weeks ago, My desire hboot is 0.93.0001, scld
I rooted my phone by unrevoked with recovery-RA-desire-v1.7.0.1-R5.1-0.93, and have flash a new rom.
But still s-on, i saw many treads about how to get s-off for 0.93 from chiese htcplayer forum, general methods are to downgrade 0.93 to 0.8x,
here i want to know if there is a simple method just like root with unrevoked, to get s off.
ps. i wanna clear that if root completely must include s -off

Hey there,
I'm planning to root my Desire.
It is Vodafone Germany Branded (vodafone scene included) and I
updated to 2.2 with the official Vodafone Update (OTA, some weeks ago)
Now I found a tutorial here with unrevoked to root every Desire with any HBOOT.
My HBOOT version is 0.93.0001 !
But i read something like "i need a goldcard to root when my desire is branded"
Is this goldcard needed to root with unrevoked because my desire is branded by vodafone?
When I'm in the Bootloader (Vol. Down + Power ) i get this information:
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-031d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.09.05.30_2
HBOOT
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
CLEAR STORAGE
SIMLOCK
My Desire has got an AMOLED Display.
What do I Have to do? Do i have to root with Goldcard+unrevoked or just with unrevoked?
After rooting i want to flash the "AuraxTSense V.7.8.1" Rom.
This won't be a problem right?
Thanks
I have a Softbank branded desire and unrevoked worked fine for me.
Same here with Dutch Vodafone image. I just did the root with Unrevoked using a Linux live CD (SLAX). It reboots a couple of times and now is successfully rooted!!
Use unrevoked , i think it goes fine with 0.93 hboot.
Search the threat that explains how to use unrevoked.
Good luck.
Moved to Q&A. Please don't post question threads in Development.
You need a gold card to use the hboot downgrade utility that will flash an official HTC WWE ROM with the older hboot 0.80..
This can then be rooted by Unrevoked, if you were still on 2.1 Eclair then the gold card wouldn't have been needed

I just rooted succesfully WITHOUT a gold card. So you don't need it, even if you accepted an official update (OTA)
Thanks to all replies
Ok so I have just upgraded the ROM on my HTC Desire from LeeDrOiD 2.3 to 2.4 and I have noticed on a few places mention that its possible to upgrade the HBOOT on the phone?
Is this correct or something that is not really relevant and should not be touched?
stock HBOOT got S-ON (NAND Protection by HTC).
As long as you get no problems flashing / booting new CustomROMs on your phone,
or if you dont need APPs whitch requires S-OFF, then there is no need of updating HBOOT.
Which HBOOT version do you have ? 0.93.0001 ?
It is possible to root my Desire Hboot 0.93 PVT1 without Unrevoked, because I want to save the original Android recovery because if I need the Clockwork mod Recovery I like to use it with the fake flash, and because this is my third Desire motherboard I don't like to send it to warranty with the clockwork recovery if I need to send it again.
If a method exist, can you link it or explain it to me, please? Thanks to all, for your work and your passion in this work.

This one is 1 year old, but should be some recent guides over the net.
It is secure to do this procedure with a hboot 0.93?, because the tutorial don't talk about it.
You could also downgrade your hboot.
Hi,
Just got my first ever htc phone the htc desire locked on 3 (UK)
I was looking around and I am preparing to root the phone using this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016084
It says however that your device must be hboot 0.93 or lower. I checked and it says my phone is 0.93.0001 is it still okay to use this guide to root it?
Also will rooting my phone unlock it or must the phone be unlocked to root it?
Thanks in advanced and sorry if this is a noob question.
Unrevoked 3 will work.
I have the exact same Hboot version, and I got a custom rom on it.(rooted, s-off, alpharev Hboot)
Hello,
I had an hardware problem with my Desire (problem with volume "-" key), so I made an echange.
On the new one, I'm already on orange rom with android 2.2 and hboot 0.93.000001.
Before I were in hboot 0.75, I was sure that I have an Amolex Desire and not an SLCD so it happened that after making him reflash orange rom (but at this moment, I didn't exchange my phone finally), I re downgrade the hboot to re put the 0.75 for re rooting it, because I was sure that it was to 0.75 by the past.
But I read that if I have an SLCD, i've to be careful and I'm afroid of SLCD Brick as described in aanother thread?
Do you advise me to root it with the last version of unrevocked without investigate to know with downgrade to 0.75 and knowing if it's an Amolex version?
Thanks
There is NO need to downgrade.. 0.93 is rootable from unrevoked use 3.21
And I think S-LCD brick is not due to root.. but it is due to wrong RUU flash.
Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Can Hboot 0.93 be replaced with alpharev Hboots and s-off like the previous Hboots?
Matt
Yes, it can.
