[SOLVED] Go to S-OFF - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello,
it's yet me!!
I'd like to S-OFF my HTC Desire:
it's an A88181 (see here: http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=2251&c=htc_desire_htc_bravo ) so a GSM one
It have HBOOT: 0.75 / S-On
and:
Androïd version: 2.2
ROM Radio: 5.14.05.17
Kernel version: 2.6.32.15
Build number: 2.29.405.5
Software: LeeDroid v2.3d A2SD+
Browser version: Webkit 3.1
is it possible?
what HBOOT take/choose?
what PB99IMG? what is it PB99IMG? what use?
what must I do before? (nandroid is done)
thanks

Follow this guide:
w w w.addictivetips.com/mobile/gain-s-off-on-htc-desire-gsm-with-alpharev-1-8-custom-hboot/
(remove spaces between www)
if you don't know how to boot from a usb drive/cd you just go into BIOS (press either F2, F10, del, or esc while booting, different computers use different keys), navigate to boot order/boot options and move you cd drive/usb port up top.
I did this on my A8181 and it works flawlesly

Just read the S-OFF thread on here - don't need to go to another site

I did it, everything seems OK, but the Phone don't boot: it stays eternally at the first splash screen
did I brick it?
In Bootloader, it displays that:
Alpharev Oxygen
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-OFF

No, boot in recovery and flash a rom. If there is no recovery flash one with fastboot, then flash a rom.

already tested to flash LeeDroid 2.3d ROM: no luck!!
I have Clockworlmod recovery, v.3.0.0.5: it's via it, I flash the ROM
but it seems there is hope! Good news!!

Maybe the HBOOT Oxygen is the problem. I don't think LeeDroid fit into oxygen table. Try to flash another HBOOT

The alternative hboot doesn't change the size of the internal memory, it just changes partition layout. Leedroid will never fit the oxygen hboot. Is you want to keep using leedroid use stock bravo layout or slim the rom down yourself and use bravo sense.

Is there a risk for phone switching from s-on to s-off?

Unfortunately, yes. If you accidentally flash a corrupted HBOOT image, your phone will be bricked. You can read more about the s-off's risks on alpharev site.

Yes, I used Bravo Oxygen: I'll try Bravo Data ++
is it good for LeeDroid 2.3d?
Ok done, no change
- flash Data++
- full wipe
- flash LeeDroid
same thing!

The DATA++ table do not fit the LeeDroid. Maybe you should flash the bravo stock table instead

Blackscreen slcd recovery

Hello everybody,
I just rooted a desire with slcd with one click i put in amonra recovery. Everything went fine. Till i want to go in recovery. I get a black screen but i'm sure there is the recovery. When i do some things with the trackball and i went back en move a couple a times up and press the trackball the foon reboots but then it is stuck and i think it is because of a bad ROM install.
What to do? My uncle will kill me.
How do i get the recovery to see?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
youve rooted it and put on a recovery for pre-slcd device.
theres a fix somewhere deep in here. can you boot into the os and see the screen or is that blank aswell?
also this should be in a different section
I can not boot into the ROM and i just did the unrekoved
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
unrevoked 3.21? or an earlier version?
try booting and leaving it for a bit. if all is well and its just a dead screen then it will be booted, you just cant see as the screen is dead, check device manager in windows and see if it shows adroid device (adb or my htc) in the list
run unrevoked 3.21 again and let it flash clockworkmod and not amonRA
Can u see the device ok adb??
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Moved to Q&A as not development.
Yes the device works in adb. When i run top i can see whats happening.

If you are able to get into bootloader unroot the phone and it will be solved. The best and easy way is via bootloader, just download a stock froyo zip put it into the root of your sd card and go into bootloader, no need of getting into recovery
Getting this error when puting in a PB99IMG
checking: PB99DIAG.zip
no image
checking: PB99DIAG.nbh
no image or wrong image
checking: PB99IMG.zip.
This takes a while and then
Main version is older!

you can only run fastboot img for recovery when you have s-off.
please boot normally and leave it for 5 mins to make sure its loaded( you wont be able to tell cos of black screen)
connect device and when connected run unrevoked 3.21 and allow it to flash clockworkmod recovery

So why my HBOOT says its a BRAVO huh? I know its a desire because the name on the box, hboot and working roms of desire. IS IT POSSIBLE TO RE-ROOT AND S-OFF BY UPGRADING THE HBOOT TO THE GOOD VERSION?
From personal experience on a Desire, messing with the HBoot can have a chance of bricking the device. I got stuck where I could only enter commands through fastboot and adb, then tried everything possible to get it back to no avail.

Why don't you root and get with s-off unrevoked (root) and alpharev 1.8 (s-off)? Alpharev 1.8 supports the hboot version of your desire:

I know. It should be rooted because i've installed a custom ROM. But for some reason i cant flash an alpharev HBOTT. The fastboot says that singature gets rejected.

That was not my question. My question was, why you don't use alpharev live cd to get s-off? You wrote you could not go s-off with revolutionary. So you must be still s-on. And with s-on you cannot use fastboot.

So you burned the iso with magiciso on a cd and the computer does not boot from it? Is that right?
If not, could you explain this sentence "Evertime i try to make that live cd with MagicIso my dvd rom opens up" a little more (what exactly do you do?), please? Because I do not understand it.
I found you had to have a stock rooted rom installed to use alpharev 1.8 i followed the instructions from here and all worked first time

Cool3D Aces v7 stuck in bootloop

I'm trying to flash Cool3D Aces v7. Here's some info on my phone
BravoC DVT2SHIP S-OFF (achieved by Revolutionary)
HBoot 6.06.1002
Radio 2.15.00.02.17
I've wiped everything except my SD. I've created an ext-4 partition using 4ext. I've checked the alignment with 4ext and it was perfect.
I flashed v6. I then flashed hboot_stock. Then I flashed v7, and then the hboot_stock again for good measure.
I continue to get stuck in bootloop.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

v7 is the GSM-CDMA converter. I've done everything to the letter. Would changing to the cm7/r2 bootloader have any impact?
What you mean changing to cm7? did you or not?
all alpharev hboot are DESIGNED for DESIRE GSM
where did you find V7?

First of all, thank you for responding.
I have not changed. I'm using the stock bootloader, as far as I can tell. I am, however, currently running a cm7 nightly(which I know has no impact on this conversation).
V7 is the gsm to cdma script I found on www(dot)cooldevs(dot)com/archives/394
I miss HTC sense in some regards, and really liked the looks of this rom. That is why I wanted to give it a go.
thank god you did not...
1. do back up with recovery
2. wipe all partitions + dalvik
3 flash in this order: Rom.zip > GSM_to_CDMA.zip > weather_pack.zip > stock_hboot.zip
4 reboot
btw one guy posted is not working properly on cdma... Could be your case too?
just have a go... fingers crossed for you...
if not try to pm coolexe for any advice
Still didn't work. I guess I'll have to msg cool exe.

Not unless you're trying to flash from fastboot.
Also, don't expect wonders if you do this procedure. You're not using the most battery friendly rom there is and fiddling with rils will rarely bring more benefit than trouble.

I can't comment on that as I wouldn't touch anything >Sense 1.9 with a poke. What I'm saying you might get marginal improvement at a risk of getting more trouble than needed. When you get random dropouts or data connection issues, changing radios might help, but battery life was never drastically improved in my case.

Which camera do u use??? The sense 3.0 cam or the amaze cam....
U must have selected one of them in the aroma installer while installing the Rom....
If u selected sense 3.0 cam then any sense 3.5 or 3.0rom can give u that... Eg. Aurora( sense 3.0 ROM)

What you can do is search for the 2.3 Android update (which is not carrier locked) and download it. Then take the battery out of your desire and hold the down volume button and turn it on. Use the volume button to select 'fastboot' and then press there power button to select. After this start the 2.3 update on your computer and then you should be fine.

Of course it fails at radio, you have a new one and you need a newer RUU. Go to HTC dev site, kernel source code part, configure filter to DEVICE (Desire) and choose OTHER below it, click FIND FILES and the first one to download will be RUU upgrade android version 2.3.
Download the upgrade, reboot phone to bootloader and run it.
