hi everybody,
i am new with android i have HTC desire HD when i got it it was 1 month old so it was installed CM7 but because i dont like devices with non original software so i ask someone expert to instal for me the original rom with HTC sense the one which come from factory with desire HD(i know that CM7 maybe is better version and includes new features but i like HTC sense...)
so now i have in software information
android version 2.3.3
HTC sense version 2.1
is that the right one or no??
and if yes is it the latest version from HTC for desire HD (of course i mean the officiel rom) because if i go to settings/software updates/check now it says: there are no updates for your phone.
do i can upgrade my htc sense to the newer version than the one i have? i know that sense 3.0 is not officiel for DHD so are there earlier versions which can be installed on my device or if the sense 3.0 is good can i installed too??
thanks a lot for your help and thanks a lot for the people working day and night to make this forum helpful for us.

Title of the thread should be relationated with your question..

Mmm well i'm sure about there's some videos for do it and also guides... Now i'm not in my house i cant provide link...maybe later ,
But i'm deducing,because u have cm 7,that you have your phone already rooted and with CWM recovery installed true? If not browse for "HOW TO ROOT HTC DESIRE HDX" in the xda browser and read it... Its the firt step
sent from my amstrad cpc powered by LOL (premium app)
thanks for your support and help and fast answers.
sorry but i am completly new with this things so i dont know what that means rooted and how to do all this things so i need help step by step if you dont mind thank you very much really
okay... the first step that u need to learn and do its
1- if your current version of android its upper than 1.32xx u need to do DOWNGRADE
2-then u need to do ROOT for obtain superuser permissions for total acces to your handset (like any Linux OS)
3-install the CLOCKWORK MOD recovery
4-do RADIO S-OFF & ENG S-OFF + SUPERCID (CID 1111111)if u want to flash any baseband, or another rom diferent of your carrier etc... this step it´s needed..
this 4 steps are in this thread... read and familiarizate with the concepts before flashing....

when u did it u can start to select custom roms, kernels etc...

you could try and make a goldcard and flash a generic rom, apart from that there is not much you can do, you cant root the 1.75 roms yet
ok then how do i go with the goldcard thing? btw what is a goldcard exactly ?
use search pls..there are many threads about that in the Developement Thread.
btw, mine is also tmobile branded. there are some apps ok, and the startscreen..who cares
i wouldnt install an official rom..warranty is gone and fota doesnt work as easy as now. (yeah you can flash back the stock one...)
just my 2 cents

I'm in the same position as Leather|Face. I know almost nothing about rooting/flashing a phone or gold cards. I also have a DHD with T-Mobile UK but want to get rid of all the branded stuff (especially the boot screen which makes booting the device take around a minute !!).
I have tried searching these forums for a solution but due to the fact I don't exactly know what I'm looking for it is quite difficult. I see a lot of "ROMs" on here for download, I don't know which one I need or if I need one at all, nor do I know how to install them. There seems to be a LOT of help guides for this kind of thing for the HTC Desire, but not the HTC Desire HD - probably because it's a lot newer, or not? This is the way I understand the process, please correct me if I'm wrong and point me in the right direction to complete these tasks;
1. First step would be to "root" my phone, which I believe gives me admin/superuser priveleges, and that's all it does right? I don't know how to do this.
2. Next I need to find the correct ROM, which would be the stock ROM for HTC Desire HD (don't know where to find this either, tried searching). Does this ROM include the unbranded version of HTC Sense UI etc, or am I on the wrong tracks?
3. Install the stock ROM, which I believe is more commonly referred to as "Flashing a ROM", is this correct? I don't know how to do this either.
As you can see from above, I have limited understanding of the process, and what I think I understand may be completely incorrect anyway! I want to find a guide to get back the stock DHD Android/Sense UI, ideally with explanations for a newbie telling me WHY I am doing specific tasks and how they affect my phone etc.
I'll be thankful for any help

1. No, first step if you *really* want to do this is to look at how you downgrade from 1.7x to 1.32 (I think, check elsewhere).
2. HTC ROMs, the stock version, are just that. Networks add their stuff to customise it and that's what you're stuck with right now. I don't know which you'll need unfortunately, I'm on T-Mobile with the DHD but I got one before they were available on the site to everyone and it has no branding at all. The ROMs are RUU - ROM Update Utility but I don't think you can just flash stock over a T-Mobile branded version.
3. If you don't know how to flash a ROM then you're going to have to learn how by reading lots of threads and asking careful questions.
I can't give you links because I don't know how to go from branded to stock, I only know what I need to for my phone. I was in the middle of typing out what I think you need to do but I got stuck due to the stock ROM. I don't know if the downgrade process will work or not, and if it does work I don't know if that's downgrading to a stock ROM. I'm sorry I've just added more confusion
Suffice to say you'll need at least this information...
How to downgrade from branded to stock HTC firmware
One-click root tool at some point
Possibly / probably an install of the Android SDK to use ADB commands, not sure on this but I have it already from my G1 days.
Information on which is the stock EU or UK ROM version (RUUs remember?)
The search isn't handy when you don't know what you're looking for but hopefully this will give you somewhere to start.
Thats strange, my DHD is from T-Mobile and has no branding on it whatsoever.
right..you cant really call it fastboot on tmobile rom.
dont you think we could claim them for "doing" that? they sell the dhd with the spec "fastboot"..so its limited in its features..

Dunno about colours but battery life and overall speed and performance are way better than stock
I was in the exact same position Dutch vodafone branded 1.75 softwareversion. I somehow managed to create a goldcard, downgrade, root my device and then S-OFF. I used the provided tutorials in the Android development section. Before that I just read alot untill I convinced myself I could do it. After that I used generic 1.72 RUU.exe via pc to flash my DHD. My device is now unbranded. Creating the goldcard was the hardest part, pay attention as you need to write mmc2/mmc2 instead of mmc1/mmc somewhere in the process.

I was just about to start the first process above (downgrading) when I noticed my current Build number = "1.39.110.1 CL278886 release-keys". Now I don't know what most of that means, but in the downgrading forum it says this;
System requirements:
Desire HD with build number 1.72 or higher

Does this mean I don't need to downgrade? Is my current build number 1.39?

Yeah man
EDIT: This was a reponse to LeatherFace's question Android Revolution having Sense UI. My forum view must have tripped out

Hi.
As a noob that I am, I didn't backup my ROM, and now would like to restore it.
I've tried several, and tired several option but none work.
Can anyone help me restore the original ROM?

You have to provide some info! Which network, country, SLCD or Amoled?
Download an ruu then run it.

I tried going back to stock RUU (waranty return) and the program would never run till I removed the windows hboot driver.
After that I was back to stock in a matter of minutes.

Hey, I´ve used the search tool, but couldn´t find anything.
I would like to Root my HTC Desire HD, so I can Install the new Android Revolution 6.x (Android 2.3.5 with Sense 3.0 )
My Phone is currently running:
Android 2.3.3
Sense 2.1
Baseband Version 12.54.60.25U_26.09.04.11_M2
Kernel Version 2.6.35.10
Build Number 2.50.405.2
Software Number 2.50.405.2
My Phone has no branding!
Is rooting possible for me?
Can Someone please help me?
I am totaly new to rooting, so I would appreciate a step by step tutorial.
That makes two of looking for the same information, any help out there please
YES rooting is possible.
I rooted my Dhd about two weeks ago and all went well.
I spent about a week reading lots of different sites. All using different methods in the end I used a guide on driphter.com
Forum > Everything Android > HTC Desire HD/Inspire 4G > General Discussion > [GUIDE] Downgrade, Root, Radio & Eng S-OFF DHD/Inspire 4G in 9 Steps
if your unbranded you can skip the goldcard step.
i also had to download the PD98IMG using my phone and move it to the root (not in any folder) of the sd card using astro
the only other step i changed was to install visionary+ from blackmart alpha (google it. Its a blackmarket market) the install from the toolkit didn't work for me.
JSL is very good/quick to answer questions on that fourm.
Hope this helps.

First, please don't post the same thing in 3 different forums. And especially please don't ask questions in the Development section. It just irritates people; we all look at all 3 forums, and they are separated for a reason. Mods will delete the duplicates.
Second, I'm not 100% certain of what you're asking. But in any case, here is a list of RUUs. In the first post, scroll to the section labeled "RUU and Stock." There's a lot of RUUs offered there including a link to the Ace Shipped ROM Collection, which includes a ton of RUUs.

I have no more information than you do. The only way I will know what each RUU contains is to read its filename or to download it and run it, just like you. None of us are RUU databases, where you simply give us the search terms "french" and "without any problem" and we can pop out a download link.
Being a noob is not a suffiicient excuse to demand a specific download link without any research of your own. We were all noobs at some point, and we did some research and figured it out.
