Hi Guys, long time lurker.
I have an Orange UK Desire which I just recently sent back to HTC unbranded. It has been sent back to me with the Orange version of software on.
Before I unbrand I was thinking - as people are often lookign for the original Orange UK RUU to rebrand etc, is there any way of me ripping this to help out the community before I unbrand and root?
Phone is BRAVO PVT1
Software:
2.2
2.17.61.3 CL274424 release-keys
let me know if I can help!
Fraid not i have done this with my old desire. It worked for a while but doesn't anymore :/

Hi
My desire has firmware : 1.20.207.3 CL171460 release-keys
I'm debating debranding it and putting the latest generic rom on it.
The reason for this is I'm moving from the UK to NZ, but would like to get the 2.2 firmware upgrade.
From what I've read, debranding will allow me to upgrade when I'm out of the UK.
Is this safe to do ? I don't want to brick my new phone !!
Can you advise how I would do this or if there is any other option for me !!
Many Thanks
Hi sorry to pick this one up as not answered but I am in exactly this position.
Bought a Desire from o2 in UK and moved to New Zealand.
VF NZ sim works straight out the box,
but will I be able to 2.2 this phone? My sw is 1.20.207.3.
Obviously dont need any o2 features on this phone as I wont be using their network?
Cheers from both.
Debrand using a ROM and guide, both can be found on this forum. I used a WWE ROM and it worked for me without any issues. You should then get any OTA updates as soon as they're released in your region.
Hope this helps.
Rik.

Hello everyone!
I've been for hours and hours searching this forum for a solution to my problem and i've found lot's of information but now I don't really know what's the best way to do it. I'm very newbie on this. Here is my situation:
I have just bough and A8181 HTC Desire Asian Version with this Specs:
-In the box it doesn't say AMOLED, so I think my desire has a SLCD screen
-The HBOOT version is 0.83
-Android 2.1 update1
-My Software number is 1.19.707.7
-My keyboard always have an annoying buttom to insert asian letters (Obviously that's because the Desire is an Asian Version)
What I want to know is just the best (and easiest) way to have an Official European FroYo 2.2 ROM instead of this asian 2.1.
So, how do I do this? UnrEVOked? Goldcard? What's the best ROM for my case?
Thank you all very much!
I have normal desire and unbranded software version is x.xx.405.x if I'm correct.
Here us the question what software number should be on unbranded dhd.
Please don't mention anything about rooting as I'm not planning to do this
Thanks in advance

Hi there XDA,
I recently sent my phone off to Orange as it stopped working. They sent a new HTC Desire HD out, however it has the Orange logo on the back, and my previous one from them didn't, as it was one of the first from them and they didn't put their software on it. I would like to do a few quick checks to see if my new phone is Branded, or running the latest HTC software. This is what I am seeing in my Software Information Screen.
Android Version
2.2
Baseband Version
12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_M

It seems to be non-branded, and it is running the latest HTC software. There should be an OTA soon, but that will disable rooting. If you want to root & S-OFF, do it now. Radio S-OFF will survive the OTA, so if you want to give yourself a free ticket back to the world of rooting, I suggest you get it.

Thanks, that's good news then, would you be able to hook me up with a link directing me to a tutorial on how to do these things? I swapped phones with my Dad, and this is the second day i've had the Desire HD, if it was on the Desire it'd be no problem, but im not too good with the HD, once again thanks man.
Hi jaaystott.
The person who replied you just now (jkoljo) creates this Radio S-OFF tool. follow his guide and you will be fine.

But the build and baseband do not match. Would it be compatible with the phone.
I do not have much knowledge am a noob.
You won't know until you try. If it fail, it would say some CID errors (your phone won't brich, don't worry) and you will need a goldcard to RUU
You are HTC Asia India. It's the .720. That tells us that. To use any other RUU (i.e not .720.) You need a gold card.
Although if the 2.3.3 HTC dev gingerbread installs, this is still under warranty anyway
