No, it doesn't remove your recovery.

I didn't lose my recovery when s-offing but also heared that it could happen. Although I believe that since 1.8 AlphaRev installed a new version of CWM any way.
But if you can't get the sdk to work I would think twice about S-offing.

First of i rooted my desire and installed froyo by oxygen.
Then i wanted to unroot it.
Thing is that htc sync couldn`t find the phone, as it didn`t have the option to htc sync in the rom.
So I installed another rom (r3.1-bravo-desire-modacocustomrom-withadditions-signed), but i guess I did something wrong, because when i reboot the phone it just reboots and reboots.
Thanks for any help, and please excuse my bad english.
Stupid is what stupid does -_-
u shud check on modaco instead its their ROM!!
Nah, you should just do a full wipe.

Hey I would really like to flash this ROM but I am a noob at rooting/flashing as I just rooted my phone. So I was wondering if somebody would help me by giving me a step by step on what exactly I am supposed to do to have this ROM on my desire.
Thanks

Thank you very much. I'll try it out and tell you what happens.
I think I will stick to CM 7.1.0 for some time before trying RunnyDroid.

There is NO reason to use ROM Manager, use recovery.

using recovery is way better, it's easy to mess your phone with rom manager when you dont know how to use it

Cool. Personaly i like 4EXT Recovery and you can partition your sdcard with it to, you can get it in market or google 4EXT for thier own page. Some devs recommend that you use a recovery that is best with thier roms. So please read before flashing a rom and read other forums about it for more info. And you get into recovery by powering off your phone then you hold the volume down button + power button. Dont forget research n read

search for the software version at the OS, settings -> phone setting -> software
Given your data (Lebanon) it will be Primo U, but better to be sure.
Sorry, at settings->about->software information. There is the software number which is needed
Sorry, but I will ask, if you are new to android why root? It is not really needed if you just use the phone like average.

The software is for the WWE Asia Primo U so you can go according to the link Lloir gave you.
First a registration at htc-dev, and then there will be steb-by-step walktrough to unlock the bootloader. If you have unlocked it (all data will be erased) then it could be rooted, or you can go easy and use the One V all-in one tool which can remove some work from your soulders, but I don't really think that it will be wise at a beginner level to attain the root.
Also if you watched carefully if you unlock the bootloader (which is needed for root) you have voided your warranty.

Then you must have used adb, so you are accustomed to command line. In HTC because of some limitations for the users, fastboot is needed to flash things, if you have acchieved the unlocked BL.
For root you only need to do basic things with the all-in-one tool, and you will have cwm to install the supersu. it is not that hard.
I told you I'm not a beginner I was just saying that but the things I don't know are flashing roms but the I know the bootloader unlocking process

if you have unlocked and has cwm you are on the go. You can (not must) flash any custom rom that is available. Only difference in htc is that first you go into bootloader, then from there to recovery, not to recovery first. fastboot is basicly a tiny app, that is capable to flash the primo's memory directly with command line syntax when is fastboot mode (you can call it flash mode basicly).
Ok I got you I conclude that the things I should do are
1 unlock the bootloader
2 flash cmw Rom
3 install superuser
Only???
Or is there anything else?

2 flash cmw Rom -> recovery, not rom but correct
3 install superuser-> via the newly flashed recovery
Only???

That is all needed for the root.

Dude, few posts ahead you've told Lloir that you need some help on rooting because you don't know what's a bootloader. After that you've told everyone that you know what a bootloader is and you are not new to android, rooting or any other specifical part of this process.
Now after you rooted your device, you ask "what are the nice apps that I can download??" ?
Are you serious?!
Get your act together.
Yeah so what I don't mean the basic apps I mean other apps that allow you to take more controll of your phone
