Try booting in fastboot (back + power) and flash stock RUU.

This will remove root access. But you can run unrevoked again and so you will get root access again. I don't see why this shouldn't work.

HBOOT 1.76.0007 will only boot HTC signed images.
If you can get into normal OS of the phone there is a way.
You can use flashrec to get a custom recovery image on it.
Follow these instrcutions from the Unlockr:
http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/27/how-to-root-your-htc-hero-in-one-click/
Follow it closely, once you have the new recovery flashed you can update HBOOT.
WARNING: Flashing your HBOOT is risky and you may brick your phone. I'm not responsible
I've got a HBOOT 1.76.0004 signed zip you can use to flash your HBOOT.
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?wzlznwcmeln
Hope this helps. If you got any more questions, it's better to ask them before flashing
I will give it a try. Thanks for your help.
Can you please upload the HBOOT 1.76.0004 to another hoster. On mediafire thers is a javascript error try it with tow different browsers on two computer.

With some custom ROM like Modaco 3.0, Hero 2.1 (v1.5), I do have root access with su and I can use some apps like AppsToSD, QuickBoot....
I tried to go back to the stock ROM Hero 1.5 to root but I couldn't get root access on this ROM, anyone knows how to deal with this?

[SOLVED] Semi Bricked HTC Desire - Need help

Hello guys, I have a major problem on my HTC Desire. Most of it is my fault but please try to help out here and not judge me... :/
I use Miuimod. I had the 1.8.1 version and I went to install 2.1. The thing is that (for the first time!!!) I didn't check the last page of thread to find out that Miuimod 2.1 for Desire a major bug that forces an endless reboot.
And that's not all... Don't ask me why but.. I didn't make a NANDroid backup... :/ I was in a hurry and I didn't check the button from ROM Manager menu.
Also for a reason, I cannot boot into ClockworkMod Recovery. I only have hboot. Hboot lets you install a ROM only with the name update.zip. But even though I have renamed the last OpenDesire ROM as update.zip, it won't install it cause it doesn't have the proper signature.
So I'm kinda stuck with a semi bricked HTC Desire. Any suggestions?
(And just for the record, yeah, lesson learned... )
Are you s-off? If so, just flash a new recovery image through fastboot.
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
Wrong forum, Q/A should be right...
Try flashing clockwork over fastboot:
"fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.img"
Put your SD in your computer and copy a ROM.zip on it, than flash as usual ?
Why why why??
What have you learnt from this mistake? Yes, ALWAYS install a custom recovery. Saves you this kind of trouble.
Okay I'm of no help, but I just wanted to tell.
@markuz85 No I'm s-on. In order to change to s-off I need to boot into device (right?).
@westernmg I'm trying to but adb shows no devices and I'm kinda stuck there.
Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance...
Try to pull out the battery and wait a few seconds then power on the phone again and press power+vol- and select recovery.If this don't work try to reflash an official htc desire rom renamed in update.zip from hboot.
Thanks for the answer. Can't find an official rom though. Can you point me at one?
@9600pro87 I did what you said but still nothing...

Fortunately I solved the problem. This is what I did:
I basicaly rerooted my phone using Modaco's method. So when finished I had the default ROM again. Thank you all for your help!
Good that you solved the issue. But just so you know, that method of rooting is outdated. Rooting does not need downgrading, as of current hboots

Depends. What did the tool say when you tried to run it? If you need a RUU and can't find a compatible one, make a goldcard and flash any RUU that supports hboot unlock.

[Q] Unable to use Unrevocked on my HTC Desire !

Hello,
I wanted to post in dedicated post in development section but I don't have enough message posted for that !
I'm trying to install a custom ROM on my Desire (non operator version, stock rom). So I rooted it with VISIONary+ and it looks to have succeeded. Then I installed RomManager to install Clockworkmod ! When I select Flash Clockworkmod in RomManager it states after few seconds that it downloaded it but not that it flashed it When I reboot with recovery mode I get the default android menu and not the one of Clockworkmod. What's wrong ?
I tried also with latest version of unrevocked but it hungs up at end stating "Root failed: perhaps your firmware is too recent !"
Here are all infos of my phone in Boot:

Hey I was facing similar issues few days back, use the RUU for your device to restore it to factory settings and then try unRevoked again.
also this is my post -http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970566 hope this helps
To confirm, the 2.29.405.5 software is what was on your phone when you got it? If so, use unrEVOked 3.21 as this seems to work for most people (although I had no issues using 3.32 with the same version as you)

Yep I tried unRevoked with old version of amon_ra but no better luck, so I'm going to flash it to RUU and try again. Where should I find the RUU ? I just need to copy it at root of sd card and then in boot mode I select that file and that's it, right ?
Update: I found the link in forum with RUU for Desire Considering mine is an official HTC phone, not branded by any carrier, I should use one of these I suppose but which one :
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4. 05.00.11_release_122704.exe
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4. 06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27_release
Update bis: these are all windows update programs so no way to use them for me as I run on Mac, and in Parallels on Mac, Desire doesn't appear as USB peripheral I can attach to Windows when it's in boot mode

I had issues with the latest unrevoked and I was getting a failed message. When i removed my sd card everything goes well.
So give it a try without your sd card, who knows it might work for you too!
P.S I have the same HBOOT and android version with you.
Why are you usung unrevoked anyway? Since you are s-off you can easily flash a new recovery via fastboot.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.
I don't think you can use unrevoked on an already rooted device - but not sure though.

Thanks for all your help,

Did you use Alpharev to S-Off?

no idea, I don't know how or why it's in S-Off mode ! I have no remember to have tweaked it in past !

Did you use Alpharev to S-Off?
When trying unrevoked, did you uncheck "disable security" (or similar) before hitting the button?
EDIT: Sry, I hit reply instead of edit.
It is really strange that you are S-Off. Maybe you are one of the few people having eng-bootloader from stock?
Probably runnung an RUU is your best bet.
Flash the 2.29.405.5 RUU and start again

oky so I reinstalled RUU 2.29.405.5 with success ! and then tried to run Unrevoked and it finishes with same error as previously (Backup CID is missing, I ran it without security Options !).
If I try to run UNrevoked with Amon_Ra 2, I get Failed to get root. Is your firmware too new ?
With Amon_Ra 0.93 same error about CID missing !
With Clockwork mod 2.5.0.7, same error about CID missing !
I'm desperated It looks like my phone can't be upgraded easily Any other ideas ?
Thanks for all,
Vincèn
Which version of unrEVOked are you using?

current one, 3.32 downloaded from unrevoked website few days ago
Vincèn
Last time I ran unrEVOked I had to use 3.21
which I think you can get here: http://downloads.unrevoked.com/recovery/3.21/reflash_package.exe

I had the same problem. The 2nd try it works...

Thanks for link, but same problem, Backup CID is missing whatever I activate the security option or not in Unrevocked ! Should I try with Amon_RA ?
By the way I noticed I'm still S_Off after RUU, normal ?

I would think no?
@m33-snk do you mean to RUU it again, or unrEVOked it again?
googling the error suggests using unrEVOked 3.2 ( http://rootmydroid.co.uk/guides/howto-fix-the-backup-cid-missing-error-on-unrevoked/ http://www.filefactory.com/file/b4171fg/n/unrEVOked-3-2-Windoze.exe - unsure if that works though?)
but also suggests misc.img is missing

Got it with that link I could not use your link for unrevoked 3.2 as I'm on Mac so I went with your link to extract misc.img, edit it with hex editor and replaced it in phone and then run Unrevoked latest release on it and worked straight That's too cool Now I need to download correct Cyanogen rom as it looks that the one for Bravo is not going on Desire I thought it was the correct one ! I'm waiting for Cyanogen website to come back to life as it's down from here for now
Thanks a lot Lothaen for your help

You shouldn't have run the Hack Kit as you were already running a custom rom. Hack Kit is just for stock devices. You should be able to boot in hboot. If you are S-OFF, then re flash recovery and then a custom rom. If you have an unlocked bootloader, then reflash a custom recovery again and then flash the custom rom and the boot.img file from fastboot.
Find more information in the guide in my signature. :good:

What about what it says above all that? Have you rooted your phone with HTCDEV or with AAHK in the past?
EDIT: semantics, but I just realized that I mistyped; it's not "rooting," it's called "unlocking the bootloader."

You are S-OFF, so it was AAHK. You just need to flash a recovery; then, from the recovery, you can flash a ROM. Instructions for doing so are in glevitan's guide linked in his signature, or found on the Ace Think Tank thread (linked in my and his signature) in the PDF in post #7.

On the bottom of page 9. Starting at "S-OFF no custom recovery."

It's ok that nothing happens as you have deleted recovery. Are you S-OFF, what does the bootloader says in the top left corner? (ACE PVT....)
You have to flash recovery from fastboot as stated in the guide in my signature.
