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.

It won't remove your recovery, actually it will ask you if you want to install CWM.

[Q] My phone just reebots after I installed a new rom. please help

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.

Eng s-off tool used on 2.3.5 custom LeeDroid ROM DHD - hboot corrupt - please help

Oh what have I done...
Basically, after installing LeeDroid latest version 5.1.1 Gingerbread 2.3 (only have Radio s-off) a while ago, signal issues caused my to try and update the radio today to recommended version via GetRIL.
It wouldn't work correctly and I assumed that it was because I don't have Eng s-off for the radio install.
So, I tried to use the ENG s-off tool and got the message "HBOOT corrupt, do not reboot, go to XDA" and here I am...
I haven't tried to reboot the phone and it is still on as normal.
Have I buggered up the Hboot? what will happen if I try to reboot the phone and what should I do now? I'm worried.
Appreciate any help on this thanks.
(I have clockwordMod installed etc)

Anyone?
Please?

Was your phone shipped with gingerbread or froyo?

Im sure some were on the forum you will find the information to this and its about the fact that that is a normal message after using the tool and your Hboot is not corrupt.

Well, I'm not 100% but i think possibly froyo.
Why?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda app-developers app

I have never used this tool but I know that if you flash a froyo bootloader on a gingerbread shipped device there will be problems.

Thanks for that. I'm pretty sure my first Gingerbread was when the GB LeeDroid came out.
I'm kinda in limbo at the moment. I don't normally reboot my phone for long periods of time unless it locks up or reboots itself. And I'm scared to reboot it now in case I have issues.
However, Is there something I should do to my device in preparation for the reboot? Or is there a way of checking to see if it was a froyo shipped device?

UPDATE:
If I open GetRIL now (after trying to flash the ENG s-off tool) it says "No permission, Features that requires a rooted device, Superuser and Busybox has been disabled"
Looks like something has happened
I still haven't rebooted. I just want to know:
If I reboot and I have a problem, should I do something before I reboot the phone? i.e.
Put a RUU on the SD card
OR a PD98IMG.zip stock ROM or something?
Is there no way I can check the condition of the Boot Loader without rebooting the phone or booting into recovery?

No sim??

Hi guys. I jus flashed aokp nightlies Yesterday in my HOV PrimoU. But it jus doesnt detect d sim. It keeps showing "no sim" on the lockscreen. I have faced this problem on cm10 too. It seems all cyanogen based roms create this issue for me somehow . Please help.

did you do a full wipe from recovery and flash the correct kernel in fastboot?
Remove the sim for some time and turn off the phone and see...
Sent from my HTC One V using xda app-developers app

i think you have a greater baseband radio than everyone else and you keep getting 'no sim' because of this. wiping and reinstalling the rom/kernel again MIGHT not work but you can always try!

I did a full wipe and tried both the roms twice or thrice including d entire procedure of flashing kernel. The problem persists.

Desire stuck at HTC logo..

Hello everyone.. My friend's desire stuck at HTC logo, nd it doesn't go any further.. It's un rooted, and s - on..can u please guide me how to solve it. Or any useful links are welcome... Thanks in advance..
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda app-developers app

Try flashing the 2.3 ruu in my sig. All your data will be lost, but at least the phone will be working.
Put the zip on the root of your sd-card, boot in bootloader (vol down+power button) then select yes when prompted.

Silly question may be.. So no need to connect to computer or need to be rooted? I'll try it today.. Thanks

No need.

I did as u said, but it shows radio_v2 failed=PU, AND nd lastly update failed..others like splash etc shows ok.. My hboot changed from 0.93 to 1.02.0001and still problem persist.. Now radio is 5.11.05.27, what happened? Now it's boot looping with HTC logo and 5vibrations every time.. Plz tell me how to solve it..
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda app-developers app

Ok...now we know why it was bootlooping in the first place. You have a radio brick. A radio brick is a kind a brick that we can't do anything about. Somehow, your radio got corrupted.
You will need to send it to a service.

But it's not boot looping before flashing that ruu.. I can't send it to service as it's bought in USA, he is using it in India.. Is there any alternative?
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda app-developers app

The only thing you could do is trying to flash the ruu a lot of times, hoping that it will eventually work.

Same ruu or anything else?? Does that ruu work for any radio or is it selective for my radio??
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda app-developers app

You could try other ruu's, but you'll need a goldcard if your phone is branded. Check out bortaks guide for other ruu's.
The 2.3 ruu is the only one that doesn't need a goldcard, cause it's not branded.

I saw a ruu with same radio number as mine.. And it's in wwe format.. Can I download it and get its ruu? I'll try ur ruu some more times..

You could try the wwe.
