Hi guys,
my mate had MIUI installed on his desire and asked me to flash stock rom on his phone.
I tried restoring the backup from clockworkmod, but ended up overwriting the backup with a new one. (i think). I deleted the files related to backup, formatted the SD, DATA and CACHE.
I also installed a new radio from 4 to 5. It has the following details on its HBOOT
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.80.0000
MICROP-031d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.14.05.17
Mar 29 2010, 21:34:33
whenever I power on the phone, it boots into HBOOT and does nothing. I tried roms found on MoDaCo (update.zip) it wont flash because the signature doesnt match or returns this error
e:can't symlink /system/bin/dumpcrash
e:failure at line 5
what do I do?
any help would be much appreciated as Im completely stuck at HBoot screen.
nvm, i installed cyanogenmod and it works now.. time to downgrade to stock RUU
hey guys, the device is locked to Orange UK and I cannot install custom roms. but since I am stuck here, is there anyone who can help me out by giving me a link to original Orange RUU or OTA update.zip?
any help would be much appreciated.
thanks!

If you search on Orange RUU you'll understand why

Why not just get the HTC WWE RUU? Or would that make your sim not able to work?
I've tried installing WWE, it gives me some CID error.
cant find the orange RUU or orange update.zip anywhere
You wont find an Orange RUU anywhere, they have never been leaked.
To run the RUU, you need a Goldcard. There's a number of tutorials/threads on how to do this on here or modaco.

Hey all,
Here is the situation:
I recently purchased a German (Im not German) Tmobile htc desire. Its not locked, as I tried and used my own carrier without a problem.
I was able to load leeDroid 2.2e on it and it works, but I still have that rotating pink circle at boot and I really want to try the stock ROM.
I tried the goldcard (the Goldcard software and also the HEX) method with stock RUU, but got the Error 131 and it didnt work.
Is there any way to load the Stock Rom, to get rid of this branding and to try the stock ROM for a change?
Thx.
Device HBOOT info:
Bravo Unknown Ship S-ON

RADIO-4.08.00.09
Before anyone asks, I read about 80 sites with different similar and different methods and couldnt get it to work, so, I did the search but still no go
You just need a T-Mobile RUU file, and you don't need to use your gold card either
EDIT: If you want to go back to stock but UNBRANDED then you'd need the latest WWE RUU and a working gold card - if you're getting errors about the CID then your gold card isn't working
I tried every Goldcard method that I can find but, like I said, Im willing to try again.
Is there any recoomendations to the best description of making a Goldcard, any links?
Thx.
Hey Guys,
I've got an HTC Desire, from 3 - it came with all the Three UK stuff on it (like the boot screen etc), but I rooted it, and flashed it with OXYGEN MOD, the latest one...but I'm now sending my phone in for a small repair job, and need to reflash it to stock.
I've made the goldcard etc, and am trying to flash it with an RUU H3G_UK rom, which I downloaded (RUU_Bravo_H3G_UK_1.22.771.1_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_127568_signed.exe). However, when I try to update it using PB99IMG.zip method, it says:
Code:
'Main Version is older!'
'Update Fail!'
'Do you want to reboot device?'
'<VOL UP> Yes'
'<VOL DOWN> No'
Any ideas as to what I should do?
Cheers. Phil.
Oh, and I thought I should post this too:

Yep this happens because you will not be able to downgrade the hboot with this official update, and because it is an old 3 rom, it contains an old bootloader.
You will either have to find a newer 3 rom with something like 0.93 bootloader or a newer wwe rom(3/htc won't care).
You might also be able to somehow flash an older bootloader using an s-off bootloader and fastboot, and then run the update afterwards, but that is way too complicated.
Which part of this?:
Code:
RUU_Bravo_H3G_UK_1.22.771.1_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_127568_signed.exe
...contains the HBOOT version?
It doesn't, but the branded official roms are always that old, and as the rom version is 1.xx i know it is an android 2.1 rom, which means hboot 0.75 or 0.80.
Also your error message state the problem quite clearly.
And to clarify my last answer.. No you will not be able to find a 3 branded rom with a 0.93 hboot, so go for a wwe instead.
What about this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256
Don't use that - your Desire didn't come on that 3 UK RUU so no idea how it'll behave as you have a PVT4 Desire
There isn't a newer RUU and those old ones are for AMOLED Desire's only - you're kinda stuck
That might and might not work. It depends on the hboot included. The topic you link to uses a hboot version 0.83, because it works with all slcd phones as well. So if the 3 ruu contains 0.83 as well, this should work, and if it doesn't, you wont be able to install it anyway.
Now for gods sake please listen to me when i tell you that neither 3 nor htc will care whether your phone contains a branded rom.. They might not even care if it is rooted. So please just flash the damn wwe 2.2 rom...
My last post in here i think you get what i think you should do and i cant/wont help you risking doing something stupid.
Good news fellows
I flashed it using this:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed
and it worked no problem, I'm now back running Froyo 2.2 woop. cheers!
I had Oxygen hboot installed but wanted to switch back to original ROM. I Ran RUU but forgot to replace hboot with original one.
Now i have gray HTC in middle and /!\ in corners.
I can run RUU again and it recognizes the phone, but gives ERROR[152]:IMAGE UPDATE ERROR and recovery option doesn't help either, ends up with same error while retrying.
I can't boot into bootloader with power+vol. down
Any suggestions what to do next ? Is there any solutions ?
Nevermind, Fastboot worked. Flashed correct hboot, ran RUU again and it's working now.
please help
Can you be more specific for a noob?! I have the exact same problem and i'm desperate. What exactly did you do?
You need to fastboot flash (using commands or android flasher) the Alpharev downgrader image like it says on the alpharev site. Basically the same way you flashed your current hboot.
done
thanks guys, mine is working too now
Hi guyz!
I just bought a second hand Desire from a guy i dont know, and it seems it has some issues. I know it is not bricked as i can enter the bootloader and the fastboot mode. But that's all. I cannot access any recovery i flash, or boot any rom.
I flashed several RUU's via bootloader, one of them is booting but it reboots as soon as it settles down. Others dont even boot.
I am familiar with flashing, with fastboot and all that, i just have no experience in HTC Desire.
Bootloader details:
---AlphaRev----

So this is what i get. Is there a method to get some working ROM on this one, other than flashing RUU's that doesnt seem to work? Or flashing with recovery?
I have flashed clockwork recovery via fastboot, it still doesnt work. It vibrates 7 times than the screen stays at the htc logo.
Maybe there is a fastboot method to inject all the stock stuff into the phone? And maybe somebody have those img's?
Many thanks, guys!
Yesterday when trying to update the original vodafone rom to 2.3.5, it downloaded normally, installed it rebooted and got stuck on the HTC logo and its been like this ever since.

I dont have any clockwork or other recovery installed. Factory reset doesn't do anything either
What do i do to get it working?
Maybe try to flash recovery like the radio. Put my file to /sdcard and flash how you know, volume'-' + power button to get bootloader, etc...
If recovery flashed successful, change the name of image file in sdcard, again turn on to bootloader and choose recovery boot.

As you are S-ON, you won't be able to flash a RUU that is not signed for your phone. That means, that you won't be able to flash a ruu that is not exactly for your phone / carrier. Don't try to install a CWM recovery not as PD98IMG nor in fastboot...you won't succeed as u are S-ON. You have just to flash a RUU for your correct model. What carrier and CID is your phone??
To find the CID you can get it by adb shell getprop in cmd. If you need help to do that just let me know.
so how do you chek the cid with adb? i tried it and no idea
cid: VODAP021
carrier vodafone australia

Just let me see if I can get a RUU that can work for u. Then try to update again....
If you have never rooted voda UK have a policy to replace the device if it dies in a software update, it will be a reconditioned one but may be worth calling them. Voda au may be the same, worth a try to see before you try anything more, I had another phone within 24 hours. Hope this helps.

Thank you everybody for your help, I had to send it to vodafone and now it works finally.
Hi All,
Returning missus Desire back to stock and have searched and found many guides..
following through, I'm basically installing the following RUU from .EXE file:
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_122704.exe
The phone was previously on Orange and I understand there is no RUU for this.
Upon installing this EXE...it gets to the area about checking the phone and intialising and all I get everytime is an Error 170 USB Connection Error. It can't seem to see the phone.
I am on XP and have tried the phone booted in to its current ROM (ICS) and also under FASTBOOT USB but neither makes any difference...
Any ideas?
Many thanks...
Rich
You're missing proper drivers on your PC. Try to download and install htc sync or driver package from htc dev site and then to reconnect phone.

That's not recovery, that's bootloader. Below that you have meny loking smth like this:
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
ERASE STORAGE...
You can use volume up and down buttons to navigate, highlight recovery and then press power to enter recovery.
If you wanna install stock, reboot your phone and let RUU running. My recomendation is to use 2.3 RUU since it's made for all versions of desire no matter of carrier. You can find it on htc dev site.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA
Well I have put back the stock HBOOT....
installed a RUU which now just gives me a white HTC screen and goes no further....
I downloaded the 2.3.3 correct RUU but it won't see my device and HTC sync won't install the drivers.
Any ideas folks?

Oh my BOOTLOADER now says this:
ALPHAREV
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT 6.93.1002
MICROP-031d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
Radio 4.05.00.11
And also...within Device Manager my phone is being picked up as Android Bootloader Interface
Ok, this is the trick, your hboot has write protection and ruu can't overwrite radio. From your bootloader I can see you have old radio which won't work with 2.3 RUU. Of course RUU should overwrite the radio during install but it's not posible because of protected hboot...
You have to download downgrade hboot from alpharev site, flash it and you will have unlocked hboot. After that run RUU from PC and it will overwrite both radio and hboot.
But, you will lose s-off and root, so revolutionary again :-D
And don't worry about what's written in device manager, it's normal.

|I have already flashed Bravo Stock off the Alpharev site .... you can see in my post a change in the HBOOT information from Revolutionary to ALPHArev.....

You actually don't want to read carefully, not stock bravo but DOWNGRADE that's the right one. After flashing you'll have this on top in bootloader:
ALPHAREV UNLOCK
not just alpharev.
Then after flashing reboot to bootloader not fastboot and then run RUU.
If RUU won't work you can try with rom.zip on sd card but that's a different story.
