you could try and make a goldcard and flash a generic rom, apart from that there is not much you can do, you cant root the 1.75 roms yet

ok then how do i go with the goldcard thing? btw what is a goldcard exactly ?

use search pls..there are many threads about that in the Developement Thread.
btw, mine is also tmobile branded. there are some apps ok, and the startscreen..who cares
i wouldnt install an official rom..warranty is gone and fota doesnt work as easy as now. (yeah you can flash back the stock one...)
just my 2 cents

I'm in the same position as Leather|Face. I know almost nothing about rooting/flashing a phone or gold cards. I also have a DHD with T-Mobile UK but want to get rid of all the branded stuff (especially the boot screen which makes booting the device take around a minute !!).
I have tried searching these forums for a solution but due to the fact I don't exactly know what I'm looking for it is quite difficult. I see a lot of "ROMs" on here for download, I don't know which one I need or if I need one at all, nor do I know how to install them. There seems to be a LOT of help guides for this kind of thing for the HTC Desire, but not the HTC Desire HD - probably because it's a lot newer, or not? This is the way I understand the process, please correct me if I'm wrong and point me in the right direction to complete these tasks;
1. First step would be to "root" my phone, which I believe gives me admin/superuser priveleges, and that's all it does right? I don't know how to do this.
2. Next I need to find the correct ROM, which would be the stock ROM for HTC Desire HD (don't know where to find this either, tried searching). Does this ROM include the unbranded version of HTC Sense UI etc, or am I on the wrong tracks?
3. Install the stock ROM, which I believe is more commonly referred to as "Flashing a ROM", is this correct? I don't know how to do this either.
As you can see from above, I have limited understanding of the process, and what I think I understand may be completely incorrect anyway! I want to find a guide to get back the stock DHD Android/Sense UI, ideally with explanations for a newbie telling me WHY I am doing specific tasks and how they affect my phone etc.
I'll be thankful for any help

1. No, first step if you *really* want to do this is to look at how you downgrade from 1.7x to 1.32 (I think, check elsewhere).
2. HTC ROMs, the stock version, are just that. Networks add their stuff to customise it and that's what you're stuck with right now. I don't know which you'll need unfortunately, I'm on T-Mobile with the DHD but I got one before they were available on the site to everyone and it has no branding at all. The ROMs are RUU - ROM Update Utility but I don't think you can just flash stock over a T-Mobile branded version.
3. If you don't know how to flash a ROM then you're going to have to learn how by reading lots of threads and asking careful questions.
I can't give you links because I don't know how to go from branded to stock, I only know what I need to for my phone. I was in the middle of typing out what I think you need to do but I got stuck due to the stock ROM. I don't know if the downgrade process will work or not, and if it does work I don't know if that's downgrading to a stock ROM. I'm sorry I've just added more confusion
Suffice to say you'll need at least this information...
How to downgrade from branded to stock HTC firmware
One-click root tool at some point
Possibly / probably an install of the Android SDK to use ADB commands, not sure on this but I have it already from my G1 days.
Information on which is the stock EU or UK ROM version (RUUs remember?)
The search isn't handy when you don't know what you're looking for but hopefully this will give you somewhere to start.

Thats strange, my DHD is from T-Mobile and has no branding on it whatsoever.

right..you cant really call it fastboot on tmobile rom.
dont you think we could claim them for "doing" that? they sell the dhd with the spec "fastboot"..so its limited in its features..

Dunno about colours but battery life and overall speed and performance are way better than stock

I was in the exact same position Dutch vodafone branded 1.75 softwareversion. I somehow managed to create a goldcard, downgrade, root my device and then S-OFF. I used the provided tutorials in the Android development section. Before that I just read alot untill I convinced myself I could do it. After that I used generic 1.72 RUU.exe via pc to flash my DHD. My device is now unbranded. Creating the goldcard was the hardest part, pay attention as you need to write mmc2/mmc2 instead of mmc1/mmc somewhere in the process.

I was just about to start the first process above (downgrading) when I noticed my current Build number = "1.39.110.1 CL278886 release-keys". Now I don't know what most of that means, but in the downgrading forum it says this;
System requirements:
Desire HD with build number 1.72 or higher

Does this mean I don't need to downgrade? Is my current build number 1.39?

Yeah man
EDIT: This was a reponse to LeatherFace's question Android Revolution having Sense UI. My forum view must have tripped out

[Q] Some questions regarding DHD/ rooting?

Hello everyone! I own a desire hd and it's stock (soft. ver. 1.72.405.3), I must say I am ok with it that way but still I'm thinking of rooting it..
but I don't know much about that.. though I like it stock I understand there are some things it can do more...
first of all: what do I lose by rooting? the htc sense? the htc themes/ interface? the dolby surround and srs software?? see, I don't really want to return to the basic android and I like the custom htc interface..do I lose it??
second I heard about the official upgrade to 2.3 so I would be better to wait for that first?
by rooting I am mainly looking for overclocking..god, that's so cool!
so if someone can answer me the questions above, it would be great! also, if I decide to root which is the best way to do that, what programs do you recommend, is there a desire hd based ROM, and what should I do for overclocking?
thanks a lot!

First of all, your current software version cannot be rooted, you need to downgrade to an earlier version to root. You can root without installing custom roms, but most of the custom roms come with sence and all the htc additions

Hi,
and welcome to XDA.
The software version of your Desire HD (DHD for short) is not possible to root. In order to overclock you will need to downgrade to an earlier version (1.32).
Once downgraded rooting becomes easy. The process of rooting will not break anything, including the stuff you've mentioned. However, there is an additional layer of protection that HTC employ to prevent you from bricking you DHD. This beast is known as S-ON (Security On). In order to make persistent changes to your DHD, such as custom HTC Sense ROM's you will need to disable this, achieving S-OFF. This will break Over The Air (OTA) Updates from HTC or your network/carrier.
Again this is pretty straight forward.
If you wish to flash a new Radio you will need to have ENG S-OFF & Radio S-OFF.
The guides posted below are not created by me, they are very good and information in them will overlap slightly.
To downgrade, read this guide carefully --> Downgrading to 1.32 - Guide By jkoljo
To root & apply ENG S-OFF, read this guide carefully --> Rooting & Applying ENG S-OFF - Guide By jkoljo
To apply Radio S-OFF, read this guide carefully --> Applying Radio S-OFF - Guide By jkoljo
Once you have done all the basics we can talk you through the rest.
Let us know how you get on.

hey! thank you both
so I want to know, beside this protection that has to be disabled, the phone will act normal, right? no performance loss?
and also, if i block the update, i won't be able to update to gingerbread?
are you satisfied with the phone rooted compared to the stock?
and i'm planning to move to UK, will I be able to use it in other carrier such as o2 since I've got mine from orange RO?
Thank you
Tib!

You are correct, your DHD will not behave any differently than if the protections were enabled.
The Official Gingerbread update from HTC is still quite a while away, and all of the custom ROM Dev's will include any changes into their ROM's. So don't feel like you will miss out if you root & apply S-OFF.
Yes, I am very happy with it rooted. I can over/under clock my CPU when the situation demands, block in-app ads system wide, perform full backups of my entire DHD. These are merely scratching the surface of what root access can enable.
As for you moving to the UK, once you perform Radio S-OFF using the guide and tool described above, your DHD will not be SIM Locked to a particular network/carrier.

sounds great then.. but: it will erase all the data on the phone, right? i will lose everything
secondly, I am concerned about the rest of the process.. i will root it but after that? I'm sure all the cool stuff isn't free but i don't have access to payed apps on market, just for free ones (this is what is available for Romania at the time..) so i'm afraid i will get stuck..
thanks

Downgrading will erase all data on your DHD.
Some, not all the cool stuff are paid app's.
For instance SetCPU, the app nearly everyone uses to overclock their handsets is a paid app. But for XDA members its free. You can find it here on XDA-Devs, its all above board and legit. Other apps such as Titanium Backup have a paid app version on the Market, but also allow you buy a donate key from within the app.
I wouldn't worry about getting stuck, there are hundreds of users here all willing to help if you do.
EDIT: You can find SetCPU --> HERE, obviously if you like it and can afford to, donate to the author.

my friend, I understand there is a lot of work so I don't expect anything for free... of course I will donate (the app to download is at the end of the first thread, right?) but until now, the only access I had was to the free apps on market.
now.. I want to risk and root my phone.. (for me is an important decision) ) can I do this myself?
first I will follow the three steps you told me above and then I will look for help)
thanks

You can do it yourself and it's perfectly safe provided you take the time to read the guides and follow the instructions carefully.

by rooting it allows you to change the stock ROM (HTC sense) on your phone to another custom ROM either based on Froyo or Gingerbread

hi everyone,
i've just bought a DHD a month ago and my software version is 1.32.707.5
I have read quite a lot of thread regarding rooting the DHD but somehow i'm afraid that i brick my DHD if i try to root it because it seems that it is not as easy as running android on my HD2. My question is, is there anything i need to check before i start rooting?
Cheers

) well i'm afraid too..

well, have you done rooting your dhd?

as far as I know, the branded ones show the logo of the company (ex Vodafone, T-mobile.. etc)

The whole thing is really confusing to me. I do have ENG S-OFF, and already flashed a Radio and some Roms. Is ENG S-OFF better than Radio S-OFF? Or what is the difference to it?
I read some threads about it and now I am really confused..

New wildfire user needs help!!

Hey everyone...
My friend recently bought this wildfire. Now he wants update to gingerbread. But he doesn't want to root. So can anyone please help me finding a guide to update. An official update would be better...
Thanks....

Not possible, because there isn't any official update out, and, in all probability, there never will be one.

Thanks for the reply...
Then how can I upgrade without rooting? Is there any way?

No there isn't... The latest official update for Wildfire is 2.2 froyo...
However, he can sell the Wildfire and get a Wildfire S
Dun forget to hit "Thanks" coz I know that I helped you

Can you provide me a link for the froyo update?

Check your friend's phone, since he has recently bought it, I am pretty certain it must have Froyo.
But, in any case, it is available here: (Check the one's with the word 'Froyo' in them. The 1 RUU available is WWE 2.22.405.1)

Did you check his phone? Please do that before you flash this, because, if he is already on 2.2.1, then there is absolutely no point in flashing this ROM. (Android version can be checked in Settings > About Phone > Software)
But, to flash an RUU (EXE File), connect the Wildfire to the PC, and simply run the EXE file. It will do the rest. The only prerequisite is that the Sync drivers are installed. This can be found on the SDCard which came bundled with the phone.
Re-iterating it to you again - Check your friends phone. Don't perform this if his phone is already on 2.2.1

Checked it... It's eclair...
Thanks for your help...
Respect !!!
Also I wanted to know if anyone of those roms is gingerbread?
Also should I flash a rom of asian version only?
Thanks...

No, as I stated in my first post in this thread, there is no official version of Gingerbread available. The ones starting with 2.x in the filename is a Froyo ROM, and the ones starting with 1.x in the filename is an Eclair ROM.
It's not necessary to flash Asian version. You can get a WWE version as well. (Like 2.22.405.1).
Just one last thing - Has your friend checked for any OTA (Over-The-Air) updates? It can be found in Settings –> About phone –> System software update . In that way, if available, your friends Wildfire will be flashed with an India specific Froyo ROM. If there doesn't exist one, you can go ahead with flashing an RUU

YES rooting is possible.
I rooted my Dhd about two weeks ago and all went well.
I spent about a week reading lots of different sites. All using different methods in the end I used a guide on driphter.com
Forum > Everything Android > HTC Desire HD/Inspire 4G > General Discussion > [GUIDE] Downgrade, Root, Radio & Eng S-OFF DHD/Inspire 4G in 9 Steps
if your unbranded you can skip the goldcard step.
i also had to download the PD98IMG using my phone and move it to the root (not in any folder) of the sd card using astro
the only other step i changed was to install visionary+ from blackmart alpha (google it. Its a blackmarket market) the install from the toolkit didn't work for me.
JSL is very good/quick to answer questions on that fourm.
Hope this helps.

What do I need S-Off for?
What does it do?
Thanks for the Help, Ill try it out...

You need s-off to flash new roms its an added security HTC add.
I think it stands for security off but i'm not 100% sure if anyone wants to correct me/let mr know please do.

I can´t download the ToolKit
Something seems to be wrong with the .zip file...
Any other way?

Could it be your Antivirus is killing the download? check to see if it is being held in Quarantine.
