Hi guys,
I tried to look through the forum regarding my query but I was unable to get an answer regarding my query.
I have a HTC Desire HD with Build Number - 1.84.720.3 CL33521 release-keys
I want to downgrade and using the steps mentioned in a couple of threads on XDA i was able to secure a link to this -
PD98IMG_Ace_hTC_Asia_India_1.84.720.3_Radio_12.28g .60.140f_26.05.05.27_M3_release_175158_signed.zip
Now my query revolves around the release keys - my build number has different release key and the Stock Rom is 175158, what happens when I use this RUU (175158).
Will the release keys change, will I have to make changes to RUU or whatever.
I am newbie here and I have no idea whether my question makes any sense or not .
Reason for my query -
I have HTC Legend, I first used the XDA forums to root and install custom rom on my legend. When later on I downgraded and used official RUU from HTC, I was unable to get the FROYO Update and the error that would be displayed was something related to release keys.
Thanks a lot in advance

Hey guys,
Just getting acquainted with my new Desire.
Looking on the HTC site, there is an official Telstra ROM update available for me (in Australia).
Just wondering if anyone knows how to obtain information on the changes HTC have made from one ROM to another...
http://www.htc.com/au/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=312&cat=2&dl_id=1048
... is the updated ROM.
and...
http://www.htc.com/au/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=312&cat=2&dl_id=1027
... is the version im running at the moment.
is this an Android 2.2 (Froyo) update?
any help is greatly appreciated.
thanks dudes.
Maybe I've been overlooking but I've never seen change logs on the HTC website.
As I look at the release date it should be Froyo 2.2 because 2.1 is pretty old now.
If you really want to be sure you can check the version by yourself by opening the RUU update executable installer you've downloaded. Monitor/scan it while for a rom.zip file which will be inside a temp folder and extract that, then extract a small user image file with 'unyaffs' to see the 'build.prop' file which includes information about the build etc..

Hey guys,
I finally got around to upgrading to the latest Official Telstra ROM.
I ended up performing the upgrade OTA (Over The Air), which was an absolute breeze. I didn’t have to do any backups prior to the upgrade, and it maintained all my settings/apps/data with no loss… of anything..
It ended up being the Froyo update (popup on device explained, though nothing mentioned on HTC site), and also included an updated version of sense.
So OTA updates for official ROMs are the way to go.
Cheers.
Hi all,
Owner of an HD2 i recently switch to the Desire HD, unfortunatly i've installed the HTC update, here is my system actually
Android version : 2.2.1
BaseBand : 12.28e.60.140fU_26.04.02.17_M2
Kernel : 2.6.32.21-g1e30168
[email protected] #1
Build Number : 1.75.163.2 CL301245 release keys
Software Number : 1.75.163.2
Browser version : Webkit 3.1
I would like to :
- Disable the simlock (lock to my provider actually)
- Get rid of these provider's apps
- Be able to flash every rom that i want
I've read a lot in the forum but was not able to found a solution, for what i've undertood there is no way to S-OFF post 1.72 version of the software because of security issues...
Is it possible to do this
- Downgrade to 1.32.405.6
- Root and S-OFF the phone
- Upgrade to the fully rooted WWE 1.72.405.3 (or 1.75 rooted if there is one)
Thanks for your lights ..
Ps : Hoo yes, is there any way to backup my actual rom (1.75) ..? Throught adb or something else..
Hi,
Unless your DHD had Radio S-OFF prior to the update there is no way back present. Give it a few weeks and a solution will have been found.

Might work normally, but needs a temp root that you can't get, catch 22.
Hi there folks!
I've been searching and reading post for two days and i've found some interesting posts, an one that almost fits my case but i still need some advises or opinions
I've bought a HTC Desire branded on Orange (but i already unlocked to any network). Now what i want is to debrand. In many posts i see that some rooms need to root the phone, some note, some may cause wireless, radio or camera problems .. I would like to have an official rom that i can update always when htc launches updates and do not causes issues ot the phone like radio issues(or other), it is possible? I've seen official releases like in thread id 7559576 but it seems it cant receive updates and has some problems :S I've also seen and leedroid and oxygene seem nice roms...
If not possible to have an official rom that can update i would like one stable rom that causes no problems to phone (like radio,wireless,gps or camera issues..) that let enjoy to the max your phone and gives autonomy
Last question: The language of the phone can be installed independently of the ROM or the ROM has to be in that language?
Technical data (that i've seen there and looks important when updating rom):
hboot: 0.93.001
s-on
radio 5.10 05.30
hi guy's
thanks for your effort here, i have 2 questions:
1-i would like to install new HTC GB RUU, but the problem is arabic language is not supported this time from HTC, when i contact htc they give me some advices to download some app from market (which can help me in some app like browser, sms,) but Facebook and email service cant be replaced..?? so my question is there any way to include arabic language to the last GB upgrade..??
2- in case i can't add arabic to HTC update, can someone advice me which ROM can be simmler to HTC ROM (GB) i mean classic ROM without tweaks,additional app, i just want something basic...
my device is not rooted..
Before you rush off and update to gingerbread with the new RUU you should do some research. The new update comes with an updated bootloader, meaning it cannot yet be rooted or S-OFF'd. There have been many complaints about phones being soft-bricked after the update also (stuck in HTC screen, phone not booting, no recovery, not able to use fastboot as they are S-ON [you'll learn about what all that means in due time] ), as as of yet, there was no way to fix them.
If you want something similar to the new GB, there I believe is a ROM which is based on the actual official GB that has been released, for sense 2.1, I would try RCMix, it gave decent performance and had very little or no bugs that I can remember.
Hi!
Got a new desire hd A9191 after I smashed the screen on my old one
I know its now an old phone model but decided on another dhd as theyre more than good enough for me
I got the first one 3-4 years ago, upgraded to a Samsung galaxy s3 when my contract ran out 18 months later but really didnt like the s3 compared to my dhd (believe it or not!) so sold the s3 and stuck with my dhd
Anyways...
What id like to do is to get rid of the bloatware that comes with a new phone
Ive looked through a load of threads but they are either outdated, not supported anymore, have dead links (probably due to the age of the phone (and my question!)) or are more about flashing a custom rom
Also some of what ive read is well beyond my understanding and I don't want to be starting yet another "help me ive messed my phone up" thread!
What I do understand is that to delete stock apps I need root access to my dhd
There are apps on the app store that easily delete stock apps but you need root access for them to work
So could someone please tell me either an up to date tool to use or an up to date thread to follow that will get my dhd rooted
Am looking at the VISIONary tool at the mo due to the software version im running (see below) as per
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841076
Was just going to do step one and use the VISIONary tool to root my dhd and not worry about step 2 and 3 Is this any good?!?
Some details...
android version 2.2

Many thanks for reading!!

Hi bananagranola
Thank you for your reply
This is one of the tools I looked at but support has been stopped and didnt think it would work for my dhd after reading this (im on froyo 2.2)
glevitan:
First Line in the warning...this Is just for stock devices. Will only work in gb because froyo will not allow to unlock the bootloader....
Do I need to update to gb before using the easy ace tool?!?
Many thanks
Matt
Yes, you will need to run a RUU.
Ive connected my dhd to my broadband and had the 2.3.5 update pop up so will run that and then go through the ace root tool
Thanks for taking the time to reply again!
