Is there a way to downgrade or restore to Froyo again after installing the GB OTA? Is there a RUU of the original Froyo ROM available? If so would it then be possible for one to S-OFF using AlphaRevX after downgrading? I made the mistake of installing the OTA yesterday -__-
Thanks in advance.
Read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1164789
In there is a link to a list of ROM's (another thread on XDA). Theoretically, the third one down (vivo_w) should be the stock RUU. I've not tried it, I take no responsibility if you try it, but it'd likely be the only way at the moment.
If you are S-OFF by Alpharev dont try , if you're S-OFF using XTC-clip , have a try , is the main condition .

OTAs wont work. You need to flash a RUU to get official HTC firmware.
Ok thnx ... if I ever do decide I want to get rid of root & S-off ... is flasing RUU the most simplest way to achieve this ?

Your question has been answered in the many "back to stock" threads. Also in the one click Eng S-OFF thread. Please read these first.
Hi there
i have Hboot 0.80 And I want to S-OFF my phone!
alpharevx for HBOOT 1.01
what do i do?
Thanks all
It took me ages but probably because I took the long way round.
I think I formatted my SD card and made as gold card, then used the RUU tool in the Arabic RUU thread below this one.
That worked for me after a day of trial and error. I guess there is a quicker way. Search the forums I know alot of rooting guides have popped up since Alpha-Rev release.

Just go to Unrevoked.com, download their app and S-OFF+ROOT+Recovery install on your phone. HBOOT 0.80 is rootable, because it's the old version. You don't need Alpharev X.

It will not give S-OFF. Just a Custom Recovery and root. If you want S-OFF, you will have to go for AlphaRev X.

I did it by flashing RUU with Froyo (this update HBOOT) and next, I used alpharevx.
Thanks a lot
I'll download the froyo RUU and then write my result here.

try that it works for me...just select the applicable RUU to your region then your S-OFF!!!
I got HBOOT 1.02 after running RUU but when I run alpharevx it still got s-off.
Don't forget to install and uninstall HTC Sync so you won't encounter driver issues.
Then when your already s-off follow the instructions on the link below then that's it you got full control!!!

Hi , I have htc desire hd with leedroid hd v3.2.1 (sense removed) , i want to get radio s-off.
i have tried the easy radio tool , but it always give me unknow error probably connection. (usb debuggin is on and i have tried the trouble shooting section , turned to wi fi on , using adb shell and then su and keep window open and then click do it button on the tool)
how i got leedroid
i used visionary tool to root the phone
then i installed clockmod recovery
then i flashed leedroid
i have eng s-off , but CID is not 1111111 in system info.
how can i get radio s-off?
Thanks
I had a similar problem and was told to use ENG S-OFF tool. I have attached the file.
nope its not working , still having connection error.
but i dont need s-offf , i already have ENG S-OFF , i only need Radio S-OFF.
Read the radio S-OFF tool's requirements. You cannot use LeeDroid 3.2.1..
Try this method.

in rooted using Visionary tool in the begining , and also did the the hboot s-off , then i installed leeDroid 3.2.1. when i boot into bootloader now i can see that i have ENG S-OFF.
i need a little help for the tutorial you posted.
1. do i now need to downgrade because i installed leeDroid ?
2. the tutorial says i need to remove visionary tool , but i cant find it on the leeDroid now , how can i remove it.
If Visionary doesn't show up in 'Manage applications', it should in Titanium backup.
If you ENG S-OFF, you should be fully rooted.
Failing that you need to be looking for the Gold Card method. I didn't have to take that route, so I can't really help you with that.
Lol, if S-OFF tools do not work with LeeDroid (those don't, except ENG S-OFF tool when you already have Radio S-OFF), that manual method does not work either.
And it is totally useless to try to root a custom ROM. Just saying..

is it possible that i flash to stock rom , then try your tool and once i get radio s-off , i flash the leedroid back again ?
the stock rom i have is
stock_r1-1.32.405.6-update-ace-sense-stock
the main objective is actually to flash the leedroid recommended radio , i know i can still flash it with the eng-off , but if i go ahead without radio s-off , then i wont be able to flash any other radio ? is that true ? and also can i get the radio s-off later some time by flash the stock rom and starting over again with rooting and other stuff ?
Flash Raidroid 1.32.405.6, that is the easiest method. Then you can just flash LeeDroid again in ClockworkMod.
thanks for the solution . will the following workflow work
1.i backup my leedroid via clockmod.
2. i flash radroid
3. i use your tool to radio s-off
4. i restore from the leedroid backup with clockmodrecovery.
will this work , i m just trying to save my data.
EDIT : the above method worked like a charm , thanks jokoljo for the one click easy radio s-off tool.
thanks for this thread.
in the evening, i will try the same method as you described in the last post.
I did exactly the same as you did.
Let's hope that it will work with mine, too
regards
P.S. : I will tell you if it worked
Confirmed
worked on my phone (like a charm), too
Thank you
Hi guys, just a few questions.
1) Requirements for warranty is it just unroot it? or do i need S-On for my device?
2) Is it possible for me to use the stock rom i backed up to revert back to stock? and does that means its free to go for warranty after flashing back? Do i really need to use the RUU version stock rom?
Just these questions for the moment.
Any kind souls to help? Thanks alot!

If your device is not bricked, you need both S-On and Unroot.
If you have done Radio S-Off and Root, it is easy, just run an official RUU and you will be back to stock
If you did Eng S-Off... well that complicates things a bit and you have to use Jkoljo tool if you used to achieve Eng S-Off (I don't know about any reversing any other method), just hope you kept your Hboot backup (the one that the tool made) on the root of your SD card.
Hope that helps.
Yup, so i have an eng s-off, radio s-off and rooted device.
Does that means i need to use that Jkoljo tool you mentioned to remove eng s-off and then run an official RUU to get back to stock?
and the hBoot filename is something like this?
"hboot_original.bin"
Thanks alot for the reply here =)

The steps you should do are like this.
1. Run the 1.32 RUU and then Re-root + Radio S-Off
2. Run Jkoljo tool and reverse Eng S-Off
3. Re-Run the 1.32 RUU and you should be back to Stock with Eng S-on and Radio S-On.
PS. if you are using a branded handset you should set back the CID to the correct number (Cannot remember exactly how, but Jkoljo thread should have some info)
Ok. I get it now! Thanks alot! =)
One last question. Branded handset means?

Like carrier branded (aka locked handset). You know like Orange/Vodafone locked DHDs where they have custom RUUs and CIDs.
I want to update my HTC Desire (AMOLED) with the current hboot of 0.75.
For revolutionary I need a hboot of 0.93. So, what's the best way to do it? I can't find a good tutorial. Can I simply download the hboot image from anywhere and flash it via CWM 2.x?
Is the current ROM safe or have I to reinstall it?
Thanks!

Use alpharev and follow the instructions there.
It is recommended that you return to rooted stock ROM before you S-OFF but it is not essential (I didn't).

Most roms wont work. Its certainly safest and best practice.
Thanks for reply!
Today I installed a prerooted stock froyo rom, but Alpharev won't work. Here's the error.
Is there another simple way to update the hboot to 0.93 so I can use revolutionary?
I believe you can flash the official Gingerbread rom found on HTCdev site. This will upgrade your rom to Gingerbread as well as your hboot. Then use revolutionary to s-off.

I'm still paranoid about that piece of crap. Please don't, just use a stock 2.2 RUU, anyone you want if you have a goldcard (preferably 2.2)
you can try alpharev
