I have my HTC DESIRE locked to 3 UK, i rooted it the other day, and when i was installing a rom, i was told to update the radio, and i no longer get reception, and when i do it just seems to come and go, stupid me i forgot to check what radio i had installed at first, and now i just want everything to go back to normal and i really dont know what steps to take, i tried using a 3 UK ruu, but it was for hboot 0.80, but i have 0.93.0001 and when i tried it it would just give me an error saying please try again with the correct RUU, well something along them lines.
Could anyone please help me?
Thanks
You've already answered your own question - you need the 3 FroYo RUU or a stock RUU with a gold card to get back to stock. You can, however, just flash another radio and see what happens

Thanks for the advice, but that didnt seem to work as i had to unroot and downgrade my HBOOT first. But i figured it out now, and now have my Desire unrooted properly with the 3 FROYO rom by using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256 and then installing the official 3 rom.
Thanks

Hello guys,
Please help me out. I have an amoled desire and a slcd one also.
I tried to unroot both of them the amoled went good without a problem, however the slcd seems to be impossible to.
The slcd is S-OFF and not branded, and when I try to flash via bootloader the .zip file it keeps me telling me CID wrong (this was the method I used with the amoled desire and worked)
Please any help will be highly appreciate it.
Thanks
What ROM did it come with first of all? Was it branded?
I am not sure which ROM it came with, I am sure it is unbranded but the ROM it came well what I can tell you it was that it came with 2.2 Froyo already installed. Is there a way to know the ROM?
Not if you've since rooted it and run a custom ROM - this is why I always make sure I know what I've got originally so I can always fall back on something if need be...
Having said that, if you wanna go back to stock then follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256
If it doesn't work then it sounds like it might be a branded phone as I'm sure a CID error is due to not using a gold card
So is not way to unroot it?
What happen if I install a custom Froyo ROM, like my other rooted desire that has stock froyo 2.2 rooted? would that help?
Well I have tried with a Goldcard also and nothing. The phone has even the S-OFF and i suppose that with S-OFF the phone should skip the CID error or am I mistaken?
When I run it with a goldcard the phone does not recognize the zip file
Best follow the guide in my other post and go back to stock and start again...

If i follow this method will I be then able to root the desire again?
Thanks a lot for your help I really appreciate it
Yes as it puts you back to stock 2.1
Have to ask, why are you going back to stock just to root again? If you're rooted already then carry on as before
Thanks a lot I just tried that utility and tells me I need a goldcard (even though my desire is unbranded)
Then when putting a goldcard it keeps up telling me the same.
Is there a way to know if the sd card i have is a goldcard??
Quick way is to make it again, then you know it's done
It also means your Desire was branded before you rooted it
Thanks a lot would try again later tonight really thanks a lot for the amazing help highly appreciate it
I purchased my Desire back in June and as soon as i found out about rooting
i used the one click unrevoked 3 method. Due to it being unbranded i didnt need a gold card i simply did so. After which i had problems installing some roms and its become too difficult so ive decided to unroot it and use it as it was meant to be until i gain more knowledge.
My problem is no matter which RUU i use following the unlocker method nothing works. I continue to get the error that none of the RUUs are suitable for my phone.
I have looked through the other posts but couldnt find an answer that worked for me.
my radio is 32.44.00.32u_5.09.05.30_2
Im running AuraxTSense 7.6.1 Froyo FRF91 by NeoPhyTe
Can anyone help me?

Hi,
Is your Hboot 0.93 ?
try this RUU : http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_142828_signed.exe
Enter bootloader (vol.dw+power), then plug the phone to USB and run the RUU it should work...
Have u installed HTC Sync again after using unrevoked?
U need the htc drivers installed
Have u tried LeeDroid?
Running stable and fast in my Desire, I rooted nd unrooted the phone twice, but every time i go back to unroot status i get bored, so root again, i think u should try another ROM first before unroot, try mine : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768703
Download de ROM,
Install thru ROM Manager or directly thru Recovery, but remember to Wipe data before u install make a clean install, if u still experience any issues go back to Stock...
My Hboot is 0.93.0001
Ill try the RUU tomorrow when i have enough time at my disposal
Although ill try leedroid first just in case. Hopefully it works and is good enough
thanks for the help
Just curious, but did it work?

Hi guys, got my Orange-branded uk desire a couple of days ago and have been reading up on rooting etc ever since.
In homage to my username, i'm following this to remove the carrier software:
(rootmydroid.cx.ux/) guides/general/howto-root-your-htc-desire-wildfire-evo-incredible-with-unrevoked/
I'm at step 3. My question is where can i find the most up-to-date official htc rom to flash onto my desire? I know a google search will give me loads of choices, but a lot are now months old and I'm keen not to flash an old version - im running 2.2 at the moment, but i basically just want an unbranded phone without the hassle of making a goldcard.
Is there one single file out there that i need? or will it consist of seperate rom and a radio files? Will the rom come as a .zip or .exe?
I know its a basic question, and once i've got the answer i'll leave you alone and follow the guide myself....just didnt want to flash with unrevoked, and not have a rom to reflash!
if it helps, these are my details:
bravo pvt4 ship s-on
hboot 0.93.0001
micro 051d
touch panel synt0101
radio 5.10.5.30
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
You will need a Goldcard if you're moving off an Orange rom even if you're going to stock HTC.
This is the first thing to do before going any further.
As for an upto date stock unbranded rom, see http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.exe
You will need to run this RUU on your PC while your phone is connected in fastboot mode.
Please be aware tho, that there isn't an Orange RUU available at the moment so going back to an Orange stock rom could be an issue.
Oh, and do a nand backup as soon as you have rooted.

Ah right, ok
I was under the impression that loading a rom via unevoked would effectively overwrite the rom i have now, meaning the carrier's applications would be removed in the process?
I guess a complete debrand isn't what I'm after - I don't mind if i still have the Orange logo on start-up (I don't want to unlock it from the Orange network either), as long as there are none of their applications like Orange Maps and Orange Photos when I'm actually using the phone.
Would i still need a goldcard for that? Or would i be able to follow the guide in the link in my first post, flashing the rom you suggested at stage 3?
Thanks in advance!
If you're going to go to a stock, unrooted, unbranded ROM then you won't be able to restore a nandroid backup as you need root!!
First thing, as said, is to make a gold card. Then use it to flash the 2.29.405.2 RUU. Then see how you get on as it is. If you still don't think it's doing what you need it to then root and go for a custom ROM
Right, ive created a goldcard using a guide on the unlockr.com
The website provides links to desire rooting tools 0.75 or 0.80 bootloaders, however mine is 0.93.0001. Can anyone offer any guidance please?
Thanks in advance!

can i use that with a goldcard to just debrand then? thought that was only for rooting?

The stock rom (or pretty near to stock) you posted a while back eddy was good enough for his needs do you think?
I think Frankdroid did a variation in your thread of it with root and a2sd+. I was using it for a while and battery was good and the rom smooth enough.

Right...
If you just wanna debrand, as is get rid of the Orange crap, and not be rooted then all you need is a gold card and the RUU from my signature. This will give you a stock, unbranded HTC ROM
If you wanna root and go for a custom ROM, use unrEVOked
yea, i just wanna get rid of the Orange crap. I've made my goldcard, following a guide on theunlockr .com, but have come unstuck when it lists some downloads for certain bootloaders that would allow me to run the RUU, however my bootloader is a lot newer so i wasnt sure where i go from here, now that i've made my goldcard
I've downloaded the RUU, but when i run the .exe, is says its not a valid win32 application....?
Basically i've got a goldcard and the ruu. How do i now get it loaded on my phone?
Which RUU did you download? Latest unbranded one is the one in my signature. Ignore guides online as they've not been updated for months
ive got the ruu from your sig. Goldcard was made following an old guide on the web. Will this be ok?
just not sure where to go next in terms of actually getting the ruu on my phone with the goldcard
Gold card guide is fine. That RUU is also fine as it's my upload and is the one I use myself (using Windows 7 Ultimate x64). Don't know why your version of Windows won't run it - unless it's a corrupt download
yeah, weird. Using Win xp. I'll redownload the ruu in your sig. Once i've got it, what do i do? Turn on phone with power/vol down? Then what do i need to select? I'm guessing once im in the right section, i just connect phone to pc, and just run the ruu .exe?
Sorry, loads of basic q's, appreciate your help!
Turn phone on holding the back button and you'll be in FASTBOOT. Connect to the PC and once your Desire says FASTBOOT USB run the RUU
An error (-5001 : 0x80070002) has occured while running the setup.
Please make sure you have finished any previous setup and closed other applications. If the error still occures, please contact your vendor
Bugger! Any ideas?
It worked! Thanks a lot for your help EddyOS
np
Remember, though...you'll need your gold card for ALL future OTA updates if you're staying stock. You may as well make your day to day card your gold card to cut out the faffing about!

Hey i am getting the same error...how did you resolve it.
Appreciate your help
I have seen some threads about un-rooting for warranty claims, but want a definite answer before doing anything.
My DHD has ENG S-OFF, Radio S-OFF and Clockwork Mod Recovery, and basically I want someone to be able to tell me/ point me in the direction of files and instructions for returning my handset to 1.32 stock with no superuser, custom recovery or s-off's of any kind.
Also, if the engineers where to update my phone like i know their prone to doing, is it still possible to downgrade back to 1.32 and root again to get my beloved MIUI back?

you can download a stock rom from the links on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846248
And It'll take the HTC back to it's factory defaults, as if it was new. It'll probably be best to use the RUU (that's what it's called) for Orange UK (if your phone's locked to that, assuming you updated your operator)
HOWEVER! Running an OTA update to gingerbread from the new system'll leave you with a probably unrootable Desire HD (to check if it's still got the radio S-off at least, go into fastboot and check that the CID is just 1's)

So I would install this like a ROM through Clockwork Mod?
So would this RUU remove all of my custom recovery, and S-OFF's? It's just I wanna make sure it's all gone just in case....
So there is no way that these can be downgraded like 1.72 can be?
Narh, you don't flash it through clockwork mod, it's run from your computer. You'll need the HTC Sync application installed on your computer, and a sense rom to connect the phone via htc sync.
When you run the RUU, it'll tell you what to do. I think it removes a ENG S-OFF but but a radio S-OFF'll stay on the phone (it is more or less permanent). However, I don't think the radio s-off'll show up in fastboot that obviously.
The reason you can't downgrade the firmware on RUUs is because in the process of rooting, the phone's CID changes to 111111111 (or something) so the PD98IMG file for downgrading will refuse to work with the phone because of an "Incorrect CID"

It's been a while since i had to use a RUU, but I believe it should work with any rom.
Hi!
I'm having several issues with my DHD, one of them being that suddenly, for no reason, I can only boot in HBOOT...
That's why I need to send my phone back to warranty, and therefore to get it completely back to stock, and I have a few questions I'd like to ask before I start messing with my phone :
_If I flash an RUU, I assume my phone will be back to stock firmware and radio?
_How do I remove CWM?
_I'm not sure if I'm radio S-OFF, how do I know it and how to set it back to S-ON?
_I currently have SuperCID (1111111 or something like that), how to set it back to normal?
_Most important of all, if I flash an RUU, will I still be able to flash the original HBOOT?
Many thanks in advance!
PS: I know that there are already many threads about how to get back to stock, but I'm pretty sure none of them answer all of the above questions.
All you have to do is install from pc using RUU with exe(not zip from sd card) so that you don't have to worry about anything. Simply connect to pc and run exe..done.
Using the RUU also removes anything custom. ENG-S-OFF CWM etc will be gone. You will have to do the downgrade and root process over.

Not really, He'll still have Radio S-Off, so he'll be able to downgrade with an earlier version RUU without having to temproot.
I've just flashed the 1.32.405.6 RUU and everything is working fine. Thanks for the fast replies !
