As the title says I require a Stock branded T-Mobile version ROM, it can either be Android 2.1 or 2.2.
I need this urgently, as I need to flash my phone due to problems. Please Share and not Stingy.
Many Thanks in Advance.

Anyone?
This is the T-Mobile UK 2.1 RUU
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_127570_signed.exe
There isn't a 2.2 RUU available

If that is 2.1, I don't understand why it is listed as '1.21.110.4', If it is 2.1 Thank you so much but could someone explain to me how the version number works out?
Many Thanks.
I used that one and then used the OTA zip file to upgrade.(OTA_Bravo_Froyo_TMO_UK_2.12.110.2-1.21.110.4_release3uop1mw9unpc376h.zip)
Can't seem to find it online ATM but I'll upload it to Shipped Roms for you.
1.21.110.4 was just HTC's build number, 2.1 on an unbranded Desire is 1.21.405.2. The Desire was only ever available on 2.1 onwards
Only the FroYo RUUs start 2.xx.xxx.x

Please do let me know when you have, I appreciate it very much so.
If I was to use '1.21.110.4' and flash it, will I be able to update it to 2.2 OTA and will it be branded?
Sorry for vast amount of questions.
I've uploaded it but it won't appear on the site until it's been checked and verified.
If you need it now, you can download it from Shipped Roms via FTP - it's in the Bravo folder.
If you use the '1.21.110.4' RUU and update it with the '2.12.110.2' zip you can then update to 2.2 OTA.
As they're all T-Mobile files, the phone will be branded.

Could you instruct me on how to apply the update file after I had flashed the ROM to 1.21.110.4. Thanks for your help.
Once you're back running the stock 1.21.110.4 ROM, download the OTA file and rename it update.zip (not update.zip.zip) and copy it to the root of your SD card
Then turn the phone off and turn it back on holding the volume down button. On the HBOOT screen (with the 3 Androids at the bottom) use the volume down button to select 'Recovery' and press power to select.
On the next screen with the red !, hold volume up and press power, use the volume down button to highlight 'apply SD:update.zip' and press power to select
Then follow the instructions
[Edit] EddyOS beat me to it! [/EDIT]
1. Rename the downloaded zip file "update.zip" and copy it to your microSD card via USB
2. Turn off your phone
3. Hold down the "Volume Down" button as you power the phone back on
4. A screen should appear showing your phone’s system searching for various files. Scroll down to "recovery" and press the "Power" button
5. When you see the triangle with an exclamation mark symbol, press the "Power" and "Volume Up" buttons at the same time
6. From the menu that appears, select "Apply sdcard:update.zip"
7. When the screen displays "Install from sdcard complete" select "reboot system now" and wait for the phone to power back up
Thank you. I can't manage to install the ROM I am new to the Clockworkmod recovery and don't know how to flash to the ROM first before update. Yet again I ask for instructions please.
Clockworkmod recovery isn't necessary - just connect your phone to your PC in "Charge only" mode and with "usb debugging enabled" then run the RUU file on your PC.

Actually Clockworkmod is not just "not necessary". You cant patch up a manufacturer version of software via Clockwork.
You've got to run the RUU first as exe (or PB99IMG.zip), then when the RUU wipes out Clockwork, and flashes the Android recovery in its place, you've got to patch the OTA onto it, via Eddy's instructions.
To install the RUU:
Turn off phone
Turn it on again holding the back button
Connect to the PC
Run the RUU
You understand flashing the RUU will wipe the phone and reset it to an 'out of the box' state, don't you?
EDITED: Just saw your message now 'EddyOS', thank you.
Update: Recieved an Error[140] BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR, What shall I do?
Read my last post. If it still doesn't work, try this:
1. Start the RUU and when at the first main screen move the window to the bottom of the screen (otherwise it'll stay on top of everything else)
2. Click 'Start>Run' and type
%temp%
And click 'OK'
3. Browse to the newest folder created in that folder
4. Copy the ZIP file called 'Rom' to your Desktop
5. Rename it PB99IMG (so the full file name is PB99IMG.zip but not PB99IMG.zip.zip)
6. Copy it to the root of your SD card
7. Turn off your phone and turn it on again whilst holding the volume down button
8. The phone should boot into HBOOT and read the ZIP file and ask you to start the update. Assuming it does, follow the instructions and once done you'll be back to 100% stock 2.10.405.2
9. Once back up and running get the 2.29.405.2 OTA using your Wi-Fi connection
Main version is older!
Update Fail!
Do you want to reboot your device?
Can't help you then, phone is ****ed. You'll have to flash a stock WWE ROM (e.g. 2.29.405.2) and go from there...

Hi,
I was offered the froyo upgrade via the OTA notification during the weekend, but decided to wait to see what issues people would have with the update.
Today I decided to install the update, but I can no longer get it - "Your phone is up to date".
All version numbers are the same as before, ie firmware 2.1-update1, build 1.21.405.2 and so on.
With my old Hero, I held back the 2.1 upgrade for several days, but always could check for the upgrade and see it as available for download.
Has the OTA upgrade been temporarily been held back, or am I missing something here?
./gre0
You can always grab the zip file off HTC servers and update it manually (that's what I did on Sunday, not having WiFi and limited 3G traffic).
ZIP File
Hi I've looked at the HTC site, could u give me a link to the zip file? PLEASE!!!!!!

Oh, well. Now it's available again.
How do you update the zip file manually?
1. Grab : http://liveimage.htc.com/OTA_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8-1.21.405.2_release4dua3bcrut4wrv30.zip
2. Copy the file to your microSD card and name it update.zip (newb warning: not update.zip.zip)
3. Power off your phone.
4. Hold down the VOLUME DOWN button and power it back on.
5. The phone will now search for files like PB00IMG.zip, etc. This is normal. Scroll down to recovery and press the POWER button.
6. When you see the /!\ symbol, press the POWER button and the Volume Up button at the same time. You should be presented with a menu and one of the options should be "Apply sdcard:update.zip".
7. Use the trackball to navigate to "apply sdcard:update.zip" and select it.
8. When you see "Install from sdcard complete", select "reboot system now".

is this method exactly the same as downloading direct from your phone? So will we still continue to recieve ota updates? And does it keep your data?
yes it will.
sweet doing it now. came up with Can't open /cache/recovery/command, but everything else seems to be doing alright
Can anybody help me with a question, I rooted my voda locked desire and flashed it with a rooted official froyo rom from this site, I wanted to unroot so as to get any further ota updates as normal but have since found it is easer said than done with a 0.80 bootloader, so my question is would this do the trick for me ?

OTA Update 2.2 FR
Hi,
On my Desire I cannot get the OTA (version 1.21.405.2 for the moment). It tells me that the phone has the latest update.
When I try to open the french support page on HTC.com and choose the Desire in the list I get the message that this page is not available.
The link to download the file directly from HTC site is broken as well.
Does anyone have a link to get this file from another server?
Thanks

try this
Debranding procedure:
1.Download the generic unbranded software here: http://androidfiledepot.com/Storage/Desire/Stock%20Roms/RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121865.exe
2.Run the software downloaded in step 1.
(Windows may prompt you to reboot when the phone switches to bootloader mode. If so you'll need to reboot and run the software again.)
3.This will flash your Desire with a generic HTC version of the OS.
4.Enjoy!
5.If you used the SD card that came with the phone, you can copy your backup back onto the SD card next time you connect your phone in "disk drive" mode.

Hello all,
I have an unbranded desire (GSM), rooted with the latest unrevoked, and an official ROM.Today I have received a new update OTA… something with Android Market in size of 28.87 MB. I’ve tried to install but I have not succeeded. For more info about my phone see the attached pictures.
Now the details: I saw that the update was not working , so I decided to “force “ the install process using the install update.zip from clockwork mode (2.5.0.7) and toggle signature option (it was a message about some signature error). Everything looked fine, all the process and then a message tells me to restart. Since then a loop started: white screen with green letters for HTC logo and after that a restart. And again, and again…
I have a backup on sd card. But when I try to access, the recovery menu shows me a dark screen with a phone and a red triangle with “!” sign in it. I have also the official RUU but my computer refuses now to see my phone despite of a very good link between them. Two days ago I have installed the official RUU and the connection was ok. Maybe it is because my phone is not loading all of the starting process.
Help me please with some ideas, advices. Thank you.
You can't apply an OTA to a rooted Desire without issues - how many more poeple are going to do this before reading threads and realising this!!!
You'll have to hard reset and if that doesn't work flash a stock RUU and root again
PLease tell me how to hard reset or how to flash a stock RUU. please remember i can't connect to the computer because it's not loading all the starting process
You can either:
1. Download the 2.29.405.2 RUU from shipped-roms.com and flash it via FASTBOOT
or
2. Download the 2.29.405.2 PB99IMG from shipped-roms.com and flash it via HBOOT after renaming it PB99IMG.zip instead of the long file name I used, copying it to the root of your SD card and booting into HBOOT and following the instructions
Thank you very much for your quick answer.
But please be more specific
1. How to flash it via FASTBOOT?
2.Please give me step by step instructions on how to boot the zip file.
Sorry for being annoying. And sorry for my english
For RUU:
1. Download RUU from this link
http://www.multiupload.com/UOWLL86GVB
2. Turn off your phone
3. Turn it on again whilst holding the back button
4. Once the white screen with the 3 Androids at the bottom says FASTBOOT connect to PC with USB cable and it will change to say FASTBOOT USB
5. Run the RUU
6. All being good you'll be on stock 2.29.405.2
To flash the PB99IMG.zip:
1. Download the ZIP file from here:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.zip
2. Turn off phone
3. Remove SD card from phone and connect to PC using a card reader and a micro to normal adapter
4. Rename the ZIP file to PB99IMG.zip (not PB99IMG.zip.zip) and copy it to the root of your SD card (root = not in any folders)
5. Put SD card back in your phone
6. Turn it on whilst holding volume down
7. Follow instructions on the phone
8. Once done you should be on stock 2.29.405.2
BOTH OF THESE WILL NEED YOUR GOLD CARD TO COMPLETE
thanks. Starting now...
JOB DONE... SMOOTHLY
You do it by RUU OR PB99IMG btw - NOT both
JOB DONE SMOOTHLY. Thanks a lot.
No probs, keep the RUU or PB99IMG to hand in case you need them in future
Right now I'm running Hboot version 0.77.0000 and im just wondering what the most recent version of hboot is because virtous 3.2.0 is saying i need 0.92 to use it
thanks
.92 I'm pretty sure is the newest
I'm searching everywhere. if you can find a link please let us know so I can go download that damn thing...
Found it: http://dougpiston.com/files/Hboot/PB...-0.92.0000.zip
Now I just need the md5 before I try to use this file. remember to rename it and watch the extension.
Can someone please confirm the MD5 sum? this is what I get from the download, but I cant confirm that this is even the right file:
54A82417C62C8B3DDACA785EBDCE6BFB *PB31IMG.zip (IS THIS .92?)
6B665D591D8A02D3165C0F0A67E521D0 *PB31IMG-hboot-0.92.0000.zip (IS THIS .92?)
the difference between these two files is 2MB in size. one of these two files is not correct... need help identifying the correct .92 HBOOT please.
Thanks for the info. Do I just have to name it pmg......
Zip or something like that and just flash it. And can anyone confirm that link?

it should be a .zip file. the name of the file should be PB31IMG.ZIP
Also, you will have to restore the nandroid backup you make prior to flashing hboot as your phone will not boot (boot to recovery, restore from backup) the HBOOT will erase the kernel requiring a restore.
But lets confirm that the link I'm providing is the actual .92 hash before applying, else we can be bricking our phones today.

Hboot Upgrade Instructions
As of Virtuous 3.2.0, hboot 0.92 is now required. This hboot shipped with the original Froyo OTA for the Incredible.
1. Download this file and place it at root of your sdcard.
2. Boot into the bootloader. There are several ways to do this. If you are already booted into Android, use Quickboot and select the Bootloader option. You can also use adb by typing "adb reboot bootloader". Or, simply power down the device. Once it is off, hold the volume down button and then press power.
3. Once in the bootloader, select the first option from the menu "bootloader". You should see a progress bar on the right side of the screen. If you do not, you did not perform step #1 correctly or your sdcard is not formatted FAT32.
4. You will then be prompted to confirm flashing boot, bootloader and recovery. Hit volume up to confirm and then reboot.
5. At this point hboot is upgraded. I recommend reinstalling Virtuous (either via ROM Manager or manually) just to be safe.

THANK YOU!
I've spent the last 4 hours trying to accomplish this.
Update- I may have spoke to soon. After reboot I now find that my touchscreen isn't working at all. I can boot into hboot, recovery, and all that jazz. Get to the unlock screen, and in some spots there are tiny black lines running through the display. I am wondering if this is because I may have an SLCD screen or vice versa that is incompatible? I am not sure what screen I have, would there be a way to tell?
- I tried wiping dalvik cache and factory resetting, this was said on another forum. Now I am stuck at the HTC splash screen. Any help???
- Never mind. Forgot to use recovery, did a restore, and everything is just snazzy, 0.92 and all. Thanks again! =)
Does anyone know what is the stock ROM (RUU) for Vip (Vodafone) branded phones bought in Croatia?
Since i can't get HTC sync to recognize my phone (tried dozen of solutions: different USB drivers, installing PDAnet, older/newer versions of Sync, Android SDK... none worked), is there a way to return it to stock ROM using SD card? I have read that i just need to run the RUU, take out *.zip out of the temp folder in Window and put it on phones SD card.
I want to return my HTC Desire to stock ROM so i can receive official OTA updates.
Phone details:
SLCD screen
PVT 4 SHIP S-ON
Erasesize 20000
HBOOT 0.93.0001
model number A8181
Currently it is rooted (by unrEVOked 3.22) and has ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7 installed.
Thank you! / Hvala!
Have you checked shipped-roms.com?
Note: You will need a to find an RUU greater than version 2.0 as you have an SLCD screen. If you flash an RUU lower than this version, you will end up with an SLCD brick.
Thank you for the heads up. I did a lot of google-ing and searching the XDA forum and i am aware of SLCD screen "problems", so that's why i stated it in the phone specs
The latest Vodafone RUU i can see is: "RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed.exe" but i am not sure if Vip Croatia is using those Vodafone UK ROMs or some other ones?

Just to add, you will still receive OTA updates.
After you download the RUU, do the following to carry out the PB99IMG method:
(1) In order to extract the rom.zip from the RUU, run the RUU to the Welcome screen (do not connect the phone at all). While the RUU is running, go to Start > Run, and type in %Temp%.
(2) Look for the rom.zip, copy it to the Desktop, and then rename it to "PB99IMG.zip" (and not PB99IM.zip.zip, the .zip is the extension and is not part of the actual filename itself)
(3) Mount your SD card and then place the PB99IMG.zip to the root of the SD card.
(4) Unmount the SD card and turn off the phone.
(5) Hold down the volume down key, and press the power button once, release the vol down key when in the Bootloader screen.
(6) You will then be asked to apply the PB99IMG.zip.
As a result, this will erase all your phone data, just like performing a hard/factory reset.
Thank you for the tips and guide MasDroid! I will use the ROM you suggested.
*i've created goldcard before i started to mess with the phone, so i can have it for "worst case" scenarios - better safe than sorry
samo da pozdravim sunarodnjaka
Takodjer
Nadam se da si uspio.
Hope it works.
I have tried this but when It reboots it just loads zip file and I get options:
fastboot
recovery
clear storage
simlock
And When I try to update for exe file I get CID error?
Can you help me to unroot my Desire?
Thanks

Best thing would be to get the latest Generic WWE RUU - RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27_release
EDIT: You will also need to create a Gold Card, use the tool in my sig below to do so.

Still haveing the same problem. What do i need to do to get back to stock rom?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
unrooting friend's phone, downloaded a stock froyo RUU, have s-on...
when I double click the RUU in windows it says it's changing from fresh rom to this, I hit next, it says rebooting into boot loader, then it says error [155] The ROM update utility cannot update your android phone. Please get the correct rom update utility and try again
so I'm giving up on trying to use an RUU, what I need is the most current stock unrooted rom that I can flash in clockworkmod that will remove clockwork when flashed. any help would be HUGELY appreciated
Like everything else on this site I am not responsible for anything that may, or may not, happen to your phone by following the instructions below. I am simply informing you as to what worked for me.
1. Download the following zip file http://www.filesonic.com/file/1893573824
2. Rename to PC36IMG.zip
3. Place in root of SD Card (Make sure this is the ONLY PC36IMG.zip file on your SD card)
4. Boot into HBOOT (press & hold the volume down button while pressing the power button)
5. Once in Hboot highlight and select the "Bootloader" option. Allow bootloader to detect the PC36IMG.zip
6. apply the update by pressing the up volume button when prompted. (will take several minutes for update to apply)
7. Check your Hboot to make sure you have S-on. If not, then **CLICK HERE** and follow Captain Throwback's method for getting S-on.
8. Enjoy newly unrooted phone
Zip file will replace EVERYTHING. Stock splash screen, boot animation, up to date OTA release, recovery, S-ON, and HBOOT.
I used this method last night when unrooting my phone because I thought I would have to take my phone into Sprint today. However, running this zip happened to resolve the issue I was having so I turned around and rooted again.
I would give credit to whomever it was I saw this unroot process from but unfortunately it was late and I was sleep deprived so I do not remember. Either way, I do not take credit for it whatsoever. If I come across the one who suggested it I will edit this post and give the credit that user is due.

Will this RUU work for me?
H-Boot 2.10.0001
Radio-2.15.00.05.02
MICROP-041f
TOUCH PANEL-ATMELC03_16ac
The PC36IMG file will unroot your phone and return it back to stock, but if your bootloader reads S-OFF, it will still read S-OFF afterwards.
To return the phone to S-ON, you would first need to flash the radio that I linked through recovery,

then the unrevoked-forever-S-ON file I attached before running the PC36IMG file.
