First I used this method to root
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=837315
After trying it out i must of missed a step or something cause it would not go past the HTC screen.. at that point i went into HBoot and saw that I did have root but no image on the phone
The phone wouldn't allow me to install a recovery manually..I tried this methods
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=834731 I couldn't connect to computer with usb drivers..i installed pdanet and still wouldn't connect so I tried manually and the phone wouldn't allow me to install it.
I then used the same manual method and was able to install the default recovery that comes with the phone. I can't find the link at the moment to that recovery.
I attempted to install the rom before OTA and the rom after OTA..and neither would install using the update.zip method or the hboot pc10img.zip method
I then followed this method suggested

After using that method I lost root as it no longer said S-OFF it now says S-ON
I posted some pics to help see what I see and to show what happens when I go into the recovery
http://rey.posterous.com/private/wwtdGtjFbr
After trying the latest guide that managed to help others I noticed that I now lost root as my phone now reads S-ON

Just tried it and it tells me that "file is wrong image" after I press bootloader from hboot
I basically need a rom that i can rename to update.zip and have it installed through the phone's original recovery..I have tried an old rom before OTA I found and wouldn't allow me to update that cause its too old..i also tried installing a custom ROM with no luck..

You didn't rename the file you downloaded did you? It must be named PC10IMG.zip for it to work. Alternatively, you can try flashing back the originally shipping rom located in the dev section (since the one from that linked thread was modified to remove the radio and such).
Edit: Link for original shipping ROM (assuming you have a G2).

Strange with S-off you should be able to flash the customized PC10IMG that hot_hands made, may be you had a bad download try to redownload it and flash it again. If not I copied it the day hot_hands made it and have a drop box link for it.

What did you get the original recovery to do exactly?
Anyway,.... if you have the eng-hboot you will be able to use the fastboot commands posted in the other thread to flash the custom recovery.
If no eng-hboot then you will need to use the pc10img method. Have you applied any ota updates? Do you know what ROM was on there before you tried all this? 1St try pc10img method with the rom version prior to 1.72 (1.19 maybe?), if fail again due to older version then use 1.72. Infact as all are now rootable it shouldn't make a difference now.

The 1.72 rom was for the Desire Z not the Tmobile G2, so do not use 1.72 rom on the Tmobile G2.
Heres a link for the shipped rom's from Tmobile its only the top 2 on the list the other 2 are for the Desire Z:
Edit this is for the rom 1.12

I'm not sure what your goals were by flashing the PC36IMG you chose too, that is a stock build. Before you do things with your phone, make sure you do aloooooooooooot of reading/forum surfing to make sure you are doing what you want.
Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715915 and download this PC36IMG.zip and then flash that...it will leave you with a a rooted (albeit w/out superuser which you can download separately) 1.47 build (upgrade to current radio/wimax/rom from there)

Is it not loading the PC36IMG.zip at all? Your memory card needs to be an SDHC or it wont load the PC36IMG.zip.

Flashing the file you did will not upgrade your PRI. This is noted in the thread where it is available for download. Flash the PC36IMG from the thread I showed you that should work.

Looks like ur stuck with the new locked Hboot. Hold off until an exploit is found or unrEVOked is updated.

go to recovery and tell us what hboot you have? If you have the new one
you kind off doomed (for now)

1st: Wrong topic, you should post it in Q&A.
2nd: Have you flashed any custom ROM??? If so, thats why you cannot S-OFF it, try any near-to-stock, froyo rooted rom and then try again, this will do the trick

Oops, wrong subforum, didn't realise.
Yes I'm running a custom ROM I'll try a Froyo-based ROM and see if that helps.
It's a shame that Revolutionary doesn't support this version of HBOOT, is there any way of 'tricking' Revolutionary to S-OFF the 0.75 HBOOT?

You can always update bootloader... if you have a goldcard then put the attached file in the root of your sd-card, and then boot into bootloader and wait for it do do it's thing.. when it prompts you select yes. This will update your bootloader to version 0.93.1002
You shouldn't lose any data, but do make a backup of the ROM in recovery in case you get a bootloop.
Then run Revolutionary.

I downloaded the file and put it on the root sdcard... Bootloader seemed to just skip over the file though.
Do I need to change the text file in the zip to my CID or anything else? It doesn't like it
you need a goldcard, so it ignores the CID.. or actually.. what network are you on?
EDIT: Just noticed lol
Wait I'm downloading a Telstra RUU and I'll give you a new PB99IMG
try this. If not, then you can always use the RUU to do a full update, and then S-OFF and flash a custom ROM.
Thanks I'll give it a try.
I have four microSD cards at home and I've tried gold carding all of them... I don't know how successful I was cos I couldn't do what I wanted on the Desire HD

try the goldcard tutorial I posted.
Okay, well I'm gonna get to sleep now but I'll give you some advice before you go.
If you can't update the bootloader with that, I'd suggest backing up your ROM (if you havent done so already), flashing the RUU to bring it up to the latest bootloader version, and then using revolutionary.
Once you've S-OFF'd with revo. Use android flasher to flash recovery (Note: your backup will not work if you do not flash the same version of recovery) and then do a full wipe and flash a ROM of your choice.
Would you happen to know where I can get the original Telstra RUU from? I think that might be my best bet.
Thanks for your help!

Thanks - this looks like it worked now HBOOT 0.93.0001, running revolutionary now.
Is there any benefit in upgrading HBOOT at all? What does 1.02.0001 offer?
Hboot 1.xxxx is the stock hboot for gingerbread. So it offers you nothing. By flashing a hboot like cm7 (most roms fit in this hboot), you get much more space for installing apps, because its /data partition is much bigger.

My Dhd was the same as yours and didn't have any problems. Did you ask for some help on the irc channel or did you just not read the manual
Was about to try the ace-hack until i read this post. Total noob at this been looking for months to do this. If i run the hack can i just put say leedroid on a new sdcard and install through CWM. I just need to know if it all goes wrong can i get back to stock rom with the PD98IMG...
Never mind the phone i'll be brickin' myself....
Thanks in advance.
for stock devices, the HACK kit is probably the easiest and fastest one-step process to S-OFF, ROOT, install CWM for flashing custom ROM's , downgrading etc
i tried it yesterday and it worked flawless for me, just read the manual and follow it step by step..

I had the exact same problem 2 nights ago!
What I did: Downloaded a stock 1.32 rom, named PD98IMG.zip and put it onto the root of my SDcard, then entered bootloader (holding volume down and the powerbutton) and then you just wait for it to scan the SDcard. Once it finds the PD98IMG it asks you if you want to install. Follow the screen intructions and you'll be fine.
After I got the stock rom up and running (1.32) I downloaded visionary from the android market place, and rootet id through that. There are good guides on how to do this on the web. Just search for "How to root Desire HD", and skip the downgrade step, cause if you installed the 1.32 edition, you just did
Good luck, hope this helps!

Please help me find the zip file to flash to get back to 2.3.3 so I can run revolutionary and get S-off
Thank you in advance

Out of thoroughness, why do you want to have s-off?

That's a lot of work (downgrading to get s-off) just to change the rom You just need to unlock for that, not S-off FWIW

the guide was really easy to follow. the step by step on tacoroot. just make sure your sdk is up to date and add the path in advanced system settings "environment variables" for platform tools. make sure miniadb_inc2 is on root of C drive. follow steps. I think the little details can really throw some one off. It happened to me
But yeah I got S-off flashed the ICS firmware for the new radio 0320
Running Viper ROM 1.3.1
Well when ur flashing custom kernels or firmware its a lot better to be s-off that way you dont wind up turning your phone into a paperweight. Besides a lot more customization can be of use with s-off vs unlocked boot loader. Hope this helps.
