I am trying to downgrade to a lower version from Gingerbread for the past hour and each and every time, I am stuck at the screen given below, I have taken out the sdcard formatted it to FAT32, made a goldcard all the steps go fine, even no problem makin a goldcard, but I get stuck at this screen!!!! and it keeps sitting there. I have done all the above steps at least 3 times. I am following the guide by jkoljo .... How do I downgrade???? Anyone
By the way my desire HD is from India and the s/w no is: 2.37.720.3
***Bump***
please be patient waiting at least 24 hours, weekend and there are fewer people
I think HTC have patched the root exploit in build 2.37. This hasn't been confirmed yet but it's my opinion.
Thank you so much andyharney, your's is the first friendly human post so far ... other than the

(no offense to you Sir SERGI.3210).
Back to you sir andyharney, if HTC has patched it, then I guess the only option is to twiddle my thumbs and wait for the patch.
andy can I download and update my DHD with the UK Gingerbread RUU..will that help anyways? or maybe can I downgrade to my previous stock rom, I have a PD98IMG.zip file for my previous stock rom (PD98IMG_Ace_hTC_Asia_India_1.84.720.3_Radio_12.28g.60.140f_26.05.05.27_M3_release_175158_signed)
Sadly not, as your current firmware is newer (2.37) than the WWE (2.36) RUU.

It is presumed that the Gingerbreak exploit has been patched up as of 2.37 and we all are waiting for a new exploit, in the meanwhile others have also been reporting the same issue using 2.37, have a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003&page=149
And to fully knock yourself out, with the exploit thing go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1100183 and read post #5
Ok, I`ll just waiting. I wish luck to devs.
Thank God!
I am using RCMIX HD Kingdom v 1.2 with Sense 3.0 on my DHD and when I saw I downgrade guide from Gingerbread to get root access, I decided to upgrade to the official 2.3.3 in India. I saw the initial posts in that thread say that the method worked really well.
I had almost made up my mind to try the official update knowing that I can downgrade using the guide, but just before doing that I thought I'd read the more recent posts and guess what I realized the Indian software number 2.37.720.3 cannot be downgraded! Which means no root access and no custom ROMs (at least for now). I immediately changed my mind and didn't upgrade.
Thank God!
Is it possible to root an official rom by HTC (2.3.3) developed as RUU?
After upgrade I used UnRevoked 3.2.2 and it doesn't work. I think that the problem is with HBOOT 1.02.0001. Downgrading to official ROM 2.2 (RUU) doesn't work, so it's impossible to root my phone in the same way as i did it before (on Froyo).
You are the 10th user asking this.
If you flashed the RUU - then NO, not yet.
I see than im not the only one with this problem.
To Administrators - please remove this thread
Yo mods, can we please get a merge of all topics related to this one and then sticky it please.
It should be stick 'cause a lot of people have been ”afected” by this hboot update.
Including me T_T
Stop posting these threads........
I repeat myself -_-

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.
What do I need S-Off for?
What does it do?
Thanks for the Help, Ill try it out...
(I hope I dont brick my phone)

You need s-off to flash new roms its an added security HTC add.
I think it stands for security off but i'm not 100% sure if anyone wants to correct me/let mr know please do.
I can´t download the ToolKit
Something seems to be wrong with the .zip file...
Any other way?

Could it be your Antivirus is killing the download? check to see if it is being held in Quarantine.
Take Care

i had the same problem, solved it a bit complicated:
i first made the official update to gingerbread (from carrier) and then made the downgrade to 1.34...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178912
for perm root i used the wiki guide
Thank you for the information.
It worked.
First upgrade to 2.3.5 and then use the tut to downgrade to 2.2 build 1.34.
Second used the tutorial to root compleet and putting superuser on mob.
Third i flashed clockmod on the mob.
Guide

I also read many guides and took parts from many and posted everything on my blog so that it'll be easy for ppl new to rooting..(i had a hardtime looking through different sites..phew..) you check my blog at www.desirez.strawmetal.com
