I rooted my Desire with unrevoked and use Pays-Rom-Desire, but i forgot backing up the original rom before installing.
Now i want to restore my phone to original ROM, i bought my device in Thailand with Froyo default, on Nov 2010.
I tried to use RUU RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe downloaded from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=869048 but it said that customer ID incorrect.
Any people have the original ROm for this?
Many thank.
Without knowing the build number of the original ROM on your handset it's a guessing game, that one you tried is the generic WWE version not the Asian one
Yes, i know that. Thank you.
Do you know anywhere to get the original ROM for my phone. I found the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667 but the ASIA version is too old for my phone.
What version are you looking at? Best go here and see if there's a newer one:
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Bravo
EDIT: This might do the job:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.13.707.1_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_143921_signed.exe
Or here if that link fails:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.13.707.1_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_143921_signed.exe
Oh, thank you so much Eddy.
It might be my version. I visited the site but follow the Desire model so cannot find out this.
Let me try it now.
Thank you, thank you.
Wow, i completed backing up my phone. Now i'm trying to root the original ROM and customize it myself.
Thank you so much, Eddy.

I tried downloading the newest HTC ROM update---says my device is not supported for this update. ???????
I downloaded the file using a provided serial in another thread for the WWE version.
Can I use this file to flash my rom????
My diamond is an UNBRANDED and UNLOCKED version. I assume its a UK or US version. I use it with my ATT&T sim card.
It's a 1.93.422.4 WWE currently...
Any reason this 2.03 rom WONT work for me?
Can I use it?
I started the flash process just to see if it would give me an error or incompatible message and it did not. It was ready to install.
Any thoughts?
thanks
Man,
You really need to read the wiki and this thread.
Not meaning to sound rude - but your questions are answered thoroughly, providing the information you need to understand before flashing your device.
wow man, that was SO INSIGHTFUL.... thanks
I have flashed MANY phones, many times. I am very aware of how to do it and Yes I have read that page.
I am just trying to see IF ANYONE KNEW offhand if that new WWE ROM would work over my existing ROM without bricking it.
but thanks
If you got it off the Diamond page and know it's a Diamond ROM for sure, then you can flash it. If you don't know where you go it or have no idea for which device it came for, it has to be ported.
Thread closed.
I bought a Htc Diamond on a market, it was installed with something called HardSpl and a ShineRom, i would like to use the official ROM on HTC webpage, contacted them, and they just told me since it was a 3th party rom they could not help.
Can one of you please tell me how to roll the official rom back on the phone?
I have tried searching this forum, but i could not find a simple explanation, i have never updated a phone before, and im pretty sure i will break it if i try without help..
So please, could someone guide me though this.
THanks..
Dan
Just flash any Original ROM back
See the HTC site, give ur IMEI and download a ROM. or search here in the Forum
Just Follow the Instructions on the Update tool.

But i read somewhere, that this is not possible to just download the rom update utility from their website, because of the hardSPL installed on my Phone?
Then installing their rom will brake the phone..
Or am i wrong?
Thanks yet again, for answering my stupid questions.
Behinf your battery is a serial number, just enter tyhat on the HTC site and you can download the latest original rom.
Hey guys,
I have Flash my Rom to upgrade version which i downloaded here. but currently i would like to flash back to my Originl ROM which from the factory.. but i did not backup my ROM.. may i know the followings:
1) where can i find original ROM ( any chances?)
2) may i know how to backup the Original ROM? ( for future)
thanks in advances for your help!
Unbranded, original HTC ROMs can be found on the HTC homepage. Otherwise you have to check with your provider for the branded version.
So, it depends on which version of the Diamond you've got.
Actually, you might find some original shipped ROMs at the wiki as well:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Diamond_Upgrades
For "backup" the ROM look for "dumping the ROM" - if this is what you want, but I guess you won't need it once you got the ROM file from above sources and save it.
Good luck!
Thanks for your information.. will try and let you know. yes.. i mean shipped original HTC Diamond ROM.... Thanks again!
Hi there!
I am all new to the android world and a proud owner of a HTC Desire.
I have a branded (vodafone) version with bootloader 0.93.0001, SLCD and android 2.2 with all Updates installed.
I would like to unbrand, root and install the MIUI Rom on my Desire.
I read through guides and stuff and they unsettled me.
There often are hints which say things like: not with new HTC OTA, bootloader xx, SLCD Screen and so on.
So... above I already stated what I would like to do with my Desire.
First of all is it possible? ^^
Seconded, would someone tell me what guides (and pls in what order!!) I have to follow?
I would be very thankful in advance.
Have a nice christmas everyone.
regards

Before rooting, it's a good idea to save the stock ROM you are running right now, so in case of emergency, you can revert to it and send it to the repair service.
From what you say, I assume you are running 2.33.161.2 Vodafone rom, here is the RUU.exe for that version.
You cannot unbrand your phone, but can get rid of the vodafone adware (debrand) by installing a WWE ROM or a MIUI custom rom, as you said you would like.
To install a custom rom you'll have too use unrevoked in order to get root (SU) and a custom recovery, from the latter you can flash custom ROMs.
The most newbie friendly guide in my view is turkey's one.
You must not forget that we, also wish you a Merry Christmass.
Hi again!
Thanks for that Link, it is really helpful.
I have just one Question left:
Won't I need a goldcard?
Because in this guide there is nothing said about a goldcard, but in other tutorials I read that it is needed it to flash, root etc.
So according to the tut you posted above, I guess I dont need a goldcard, right?
regards
You will need a gold card to flash an official WWE ROM, but you do not need a goldcard to flash the RUU I have linked or the MIUI (because it's a custom, not an official rom by a carrier or htc).
Unrevoked doesn't require a goldcard neither.
Thanks again for your help.
I managed to successfully install the gMIUI ROM I found in this Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=885844
But now my light sensor doesn't work! As well as torchlight.
How can I fix this?
+ I think that ROM is really unstable it already rebooted itself 2 times?
Sometimes it just reboots when starting an application?
EDIT: this really sucks. is MIUI really that bad?
Is MIUI in general rather unstable? Or did I do simething wrong/is there a more stable version of it?
(BTW: I choose Pays gMIUI because I wanted to have german language)
regards
Haven't tried Pay's MIUI, but the english version is solid.
You can download it from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9932492&postcount=4070
And then download a german language pack from here http://forums.miui-dev.com/showthre...UI-0.12.18-%28N1-Desire%29-Pack-3-verf%FCgbar
Can't tell you info or instructions on that because it's in ... german .
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
