Hey,
As the title says above my Htc desire z , became g2 t-mobile.
This happened because my camera gives weird rainbow colors so i wanted to send it back to HTC but in order to have my warranty i'll have to unroot it.
So what i did is , follow a unrooting guide from google. which said unrooting for desire z/g2 t-mobile but it turned out that it made me install a G2 t-mobile stock rom , while i need to get sense stock on my phone.
Can anyone help me to return back to stock sense?
The stock i have now atm is the G2 t-mobile 1.19 version
other extra information:
VISION PVT SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-0.82.0000
MICROP-0425
RADIO-26.02.01.15_M2

And after wiping i need to use the PC10IMG.zip of the 1.34 stock sense?
or do i only have to install superuser? since i got S-off
i dont even know how that happened to be honest wouldnt installing another rom through the RUU brick it?

ehm what i did is , i wanted to unroot my desire z , but it seems the guide wasn't the right one , it made me flash a stock G2 rom , and now i'm stuck on it , it's a RUU 1.19 indeed. i dont think my phone is bricked because i can go into bootloader anytime , you guys got any possibility to get back to sense stock?
thanks!

Can you exactly tell me which method i need to root it? , i rooted it before with the rage method PC10IMG.zip 1.34 , and isn't gfree included in it?
btw once i rooted this phone back then i couldn't load PC10IMG.zip files because he wont find them , so i turned it back again to G2 , so probably the bootloader is G2 now or something because he wont recognise PC10IMG.zip files anymore the htc sense stock ones.

Install the Engineering HBOOT and do HTC Sense RUU like normal.
It sounds to me like the ruu you installed was the stock tmobile rom.
I'd listen to pfac (right above this post)

Surely this is a signed image though ? I am guessing the problem is that the previous posted needs to go through the "de-branding" procedure for his Bell Desire Z, so that he can flash a non-Bell DZ official ROM. Though of course turning s-off is an alternative.
Yes, but you need a gold card. A gold card will allow you to flash this to a Bell Z
If I run this zip file from the recovery, will it make my desire z go back to stock again??
I'm now running the stock rom Rooted and S-OFF.
And will I lose my root after this RUU rom?

Run this RUU ONLY if this was your original firmare (generic european)
IF that's your phone, this is official, You don't need root or S-OFF
This will restore absolutely everything to pristine, NEW condition (S-OFF and root will be gone too)

I guess the 1.4GHz works for you after flashing this RUU ?
Or did you do anything else to get it going ?

STOCK?
Hi, is this with sense? Is there a stock RUU for Desire Z with Sense at all?
(the Htc website shows this phone with sense)
I need help on reverting my Desire HD back to stock.
For this I understand I need to flash stock ROM (RUU). In this case I need to flash RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.720.5 which is the Indian version for DHD.
However, I am unable to find this RUU.
When installing a custom rom after having rooted my phone I did take a backup using rom manager. So I do have a backup of Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.720.5 which I can restore ... but I will still have root.
Question: Is there a way to remove root after I restore the backup and also remove ClockworkMod's recovery?
If the above is possible I can then update my phone to the latest firmware from HTC which I guess is 1.84.720.3.
Please help..

Shouldn't do, I once tried something similar and everything was okay? The OTA's installed as they should. The problem is the RRU you require hasn't actually been released which is a shame as I would expect Shipped-Roms to have a copy.

This is not the first time... I had a similar problem with HTC Hero, the Indian(Airtel base) rom was never released for download and when rooting the first time I did not take a backup of the original rom coz of which I was unable to update using the OTA.
So you saying I should go ahead with the unroot process and the OTA can then be applied? I really want to do this since I am flashing my phone every alternate day with a new rom released at XDA.. either 2.2.1 or 2.3.. need to stop doing that .. atleast for a few months till HTC releases a stable 2.3 sense rom for DHD.

vickyclewis.. thanks for the direct file download... will check it out once out of office.
Also the steps mentioned for flashing this.... I found the below in one of your post:
=====================================================
PD98IMG's cannot be flashed via CWM Recovery. Rename the zip to "PD98IMG.zip" and place in the root of your SD card (not in any folder).
Turn off your phone, disable HTC Fastboot if it's enabled, and power on holding Volume Down. This should start the Bootloader and it should read the PD98IMG.zip and flash it for you.
=====================================================
I guess you need to mention that the user has to get to the bootloader to install this...
Thanks once again..

I had tried to root wildfire who was updated to 2.2. Now I had tried to root the phone. And near to the end there writes
Error:failed to get root. Is your firmware too new?
Does that mean that is impossible to root wildfire while hi is on 2.2 version and I must downgrade it to 2.1 version to root phone?
And how will I downgrade it?
And can I upgrade it again after downgrading.
Sorry for my bed grammar,and please help me.
Did you use the unrevoked method to root your phone? Cause it is a method rooting only 2.1 devices. Check out revolutionary.io where you should find all the guide to root your 2.2.1 phone.

I have rooted my phone,can I update phone to 2.2 again?
Did you use revolutionary method? It gives you s-off, and the ability to flash a custom recovery. It does not upgrade-downgrade your ansroid version. Go to settings, about phone, and there you can see your android version. Hypothetically, without flashing a new rom, like cm7, you are still on sense, so nothing has changed except the fact you have root access, which you can find out installing titanium backup from the market.
Have a happy new year with your new rooted phone.

Hi guys,
I have a question about : Official Rom & Root.
Firstly, I have downgraded my HTC Desire HD with Advanced Ace Hack Kit and rooted my phone with this same software. (ROM 2.3.3 w Sense 2.5)
All is perfect.
But now, i would like to upgrade my phone with this official ROM (2.3.5 w Sense 3.0) :
RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_225512_signed.exe
Is it going to run ?
I presume that i will lost my ROOT, S-OFF, and data, but...Could I keep my Sim Card unlocked ?
Thank you very much
Is the ROM rooted?
If you flash the ruu, you will lose root and data. Soff and simunlock wont be touched.

To go back to stock... You need to flash an RUU which you can get here http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Buzz. Download whichever suits your region, whatever... You can flash easily using FASTBOOT. But bear in mind... Since you are S-ON, it will be hard if not impossible to flash a ROM lower than the one you had before rooting. I'd recommend this RUU RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_Radio_13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_signed (if you were on Eclair or have HBOOT 0.80) incase you need S-OFF. Good luck!
download ruu that suits your region, extract rom.zip from it, rename the rom,zip to PC49IMG.zip, put it on root of your sdcard, reboot the phonein hboot, wait for it to scan for pc49img, when it scans it follow the onscreen instructions on how to install it, and voila, youre back on stock rom.
