Kernel: 2.6.32.21-g66cfb7a
firmware: 1.32.707.5
and now I am using it in Australia, but I found that the wi-fi does not work, it can not get an IP from the modem. so I want to flash a new ROM for my HD, i found a thread about Android Revolution HD . I want to know whether I can flash my phone with Android Revolution HD ?
I believe you can, only 1.72 needs to be downgraded in order to be rooted
thanks very much for your help.

Hi
I recently flashed my DHD with what I believe was the Stock HTC ROM.
However, I got to thinking, how do I know it was the stock ROM? I got it from a link in a forum post (can't find it now) would like to confirm that this is the stock HTC ROM.
I have nothing against custom ROMS, but I specifically want the stock ROM experience for a while.
This is what I have:
Android Version: 2.2.1
Build number: 1.72.405.3 CL296490 release-keys
Software number: 1.72.405.3
Can anyone tell if this is the stock ROM?

If you don't have root and the recovery shows S-ON then you should be on stock ROM.
1st number is the main build 2nd set are for uptates and patches (eg bugfixes and so on) 3rd set are the carried id. 405 is generic htc.

htc has stop the OTA for 2.2.1 with build 1.72 because of several issue.
so your desire HD will stuck on that build, until there is a release version of it.
But there are also some other user get the new build 1.83 update recently, but only a few (maybe from selected region only).
but, it you really want the 2.2.1 (or gingerbread 2.3) , you can flash custom rom available here (at Development thread) e.g: Android Revolution HD, LeeDroid or CM7, better than stock rom.
Hi All,
I have finally after a couple of years decided to move away from the Apple iPhone and buy an Android handset. As such I bought the Desire HD which I absolutely love however I wanted to debrand it using the latest software.
What I did was use the Goldcard technique to Downgrade my phone. I did this succesfully and debranded my phone, however what I realised was that I am now running a older (debranded) software.
Can anyone please assist me by providing with me some steps so that I can flash my phone again with the latest stock HTC Desire HD rom (debranded - is there a link?) or a very stable new ROM? I wouldnt mind version 2.3 if its available... I'm with Vodafone Australia and this is a Vodafone handset.
I have been told that the Goldcard method isn't the best way to do it? Correct me if I'm wrong.
Please excuse my questions as I am very new and not very good with Linux. I am very technically minded so I can pick things up quickly but I need some guidance as I have no idea about half the stuff people talk about here....
If you want stock Desire HD rom, you can flash back the RUU (2.2 Froyo). If you like 2.3 Gingerbread, you can try Cyanogen Mod 7 custom rom.
But for the most stable & battery efficient , you can try android revolution hd rom, leedroid, core droid rom.
You can view the list of rom (and also step-by-step to flash it) at the development thread located here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=765

Hi, Thanks for the reply.
I used this guide to downgrade my Desire HD. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003 - This debranded my phone which is what I wanted however I also realise it is not the latest build. Is this what you are you referring too when you say RUU 2.2 Froyo Rom?
If not, do you have a link to the one you are referring too?
That page you just linked to was for people who had the 1.72blahblah firmware, but wanted to downgrade to 1.32blahblah in order to root their phones.
The official firmware can be found on this page:
http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Ace
...and the latest available firmware is this:
RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.72.405.3_R_Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_release_161342_signed.exe
thanks for that, now how do I flash this? I assume the same way I did it before?
With the stock RUU exes, you don't put them on your phone and flash via Clockwork (or whatever) like you do with custom ROMs. You run the exe from your PC with the phone connected via USB and HTC Sync.
There is a comprehensive guide somewhere on this site.
I have tried doing multiple searches but there are so many different threads, I didn't know which one was the correct one.
I have a T-Mobile UK Branded DHD.
Here is the software information!
Code:
Android Version
2.3.3
HTC Sence Version
2.1
Baseband Version
12.54.60.25U_26.09.04.11_M2
Kernel Version
2.6.35.10-g3bf3222
[email protected] #1
Mon Apr 11 22:46:37 CST 2011
Build Number
2.37.110.5
Browser Version
WebKit/553.1
Please could someone kindly direct me into the right direction to downgrade, root, and install a custom Rom.
Also, is there a post specifying the best ROMs for DHD? (preferably a louder sound ROM)
Thanks
I don' think you can root with 2.3.3 without Radio S off using Gingerbreak so ..........I'd look at following this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003
You will need a goldcard... never tried this with 2.3.3 but the thread suggests that it will work
Stock roms can be found here http://www.iloveabath.co.uk/index.php?dir=RUUs/
Unfortunately at the moment you wont be able to downgrade. Currently build numbers 2.37 and up are not able to downgrade

Have just bought Desire HD but found it has been updated to Ice cold sandwich which appears to be buggy and missing items, so want to return to stock, i have two choices Orange or HTC which i have downloaded from HTC support site, presume HTC should be sim free and without orange bloatware.
I am on orange PAYG anyway so either way feasible and not particullarly interested in rooting at this moment in time.
Installed:
Android Version: 4.0.4
Baseband Version: 12.56.60.25U_26.10.04.03_M
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.14-LorDmodUE-9.4.1-ICS-BFS+

lord.20120418.160618 test-leys
IceColdSandwich-7.3.AOKP
CPU: ARMv7 Processor rev 1 (v70)
Memory: 619MB
Little bit confused by HTC downloads because both downloaded Orange UK and HTC EU version appear to have the same name and size i.e.ace30-gb-mr-2.6.35-931a37e.tar.gz Type: MR Kernal: 2.6.35 V2.3 88.5MB.
This will be my first time to rewrite a rom so any advise from the experienced on here would be very much apreciated.
Well, if it has ice cold sandwhich it is already rooted. Search the thread, see what you like and flash it. Instructions on how to do it are in the first page of each rom/thread.

As said not really interested in being rooted,advise sought on whether to return to HTC stock or orange stock in view of waiting for official stock ICS
Not interested in rooting? you realise thats a custom ROM so your phone is already rooted... Find a nice stable GB ROM, stock is generally terrible imo, I'd recommend Cyanogenmod 7 or MIUI

If you want something that is stock and will get the fastest updates possible (skip the waiting line for OTA, likely will get a leaked late beta of the official ICS OTA), I'd recommend Android Revolution HD 6.3.3.
If stock is what you want then flash an ruu. 3.12.405
