Hi all,
I did the update to the new 2.3 gingerbread version today but how to root this version?
Unrevoked doesn't work for me and downgrading to 2.2 rom doesn't work too.
Any ideas?
Why downgrading to 2.2 ROM doesnt work?
Tried to flash RUU? You have gold card? (if branded)

Because I just wanted to try the Ruu 2.3 and would like to install a custom rom again
Then downgrade to 2.2 and root with unrevoked!?

On my thread Tx Redneck posted this, maybe u guys can try it out? I wanna make sure it works (by people who know how to do it) before i do my first root.
Also in the comments on that page it says it does not require a goldcard, is that true?
Thx, and hope it works for you guys!
My hboot is 6.93.100 and other ppl on the forum says that alpha rev protects the hboot from being overridden by the ruus hboot

You must find out the correct RUU for your Desire, you need to know if it was a branded phone or not and if it is AMOLED or SLCD. Cannot think on any other specification right now that would keep you from finding the right RUU...

I have a Desire that was originally Vodafone branded, Romania. I messed up something and I decided to use a RUU. Of course I couldn't find one from VDF RO, so I decided to use a WWE, the latest and it worked. You can also try it, but you still need to figure out if it's an AMOLED or a SLCD, I think.

How do you check your hboot version?
HTC Desire
hroot
boot via recovery:
turn off, hold vol down and power.
not sure but there may be a beta unrevoked 3.2 maybe. if it works, post!
I searched for a beta for unrevoked but didn't find one. Where would I have to look?
HTC Desire
perhaps was meant 3.32 link
and check your hboot version
we are working on getting the new HBOOT rooted. its not easy unfortunately and all of the easier methods have been ehausted and not alot of people want to risk their shiny new desires in an effort to get root.
I have hboot 1.06. Is it able to be rooted?
HTC Desire
hboot 1.06, No.
Not at this time. It is being worked on and I'm sure a lot of people are interested so keep posted.
Apparently it can't be rooted full stop, going by a post I saw on Android Forums (Phandroid)
I guess I will just wait for unrevoked 3.33 to be released.
HTC Desire
Or maybe Alpha Rev?
Seen this link?
http://alpharev.nl/x/
Very interesting.
Can someone please tell me how to turn S ON on my HTC Desire? I ran the RUU for my phone (US Cellular desire) and it put me back to stock, I just still have S OFF Alpharev. I've searched for a while and can't find anything. Any help will be appreciated.
What is your current HBOOT version?
I think you need to flash the hboot downgraded from the alpharev site. I would search first as I've seen this question asked before buy I'm not 100% on the outcome

Not sure on that as this is the CDMA desire. unrevoked S-offs this on the older Hboots. Not sure how it works on 1.02 with Alpharevx but the standard hboots dont work I believe

Flash Downgrader first to unlock the hboot protection, then use corresponding RUU.

Yes, but you need a Rooted ROM with no a2sd/d2ext scripts.

i agree, we need to know how u root/s-offed ur cdma desire (bravoc), as the apharev hboots are only for desire gsm (bravo)..so u can't use the alpharev downgrader i think
post here ur bootloader hboot infos
Yeah exactly.
The S-on security flag is in Radio's NVRAM. Obviously the radio is different between GSM and CDMA devices.
Historically on GSM, Alpharev S-off (1.8 and lower) flashed a special hboot which ignored this flag.
On CDMA Unrevoked forever did something different and didnt change the hboot

unfortunally, i think there is no way to go back to s-on with that hboot 6.x on the desire cdma
that hboot have a downgrade protection, so the ruu can't overwrite it
maybe you can try to change it manually, doing a "fastboot flash hboot hboot.img" using the hboot img file that you can extract from your ruu exe on your pc
Doesn't work needless to say. With unrevoked we could flash the h-boot and stay s-off with alpha-rev you can't. I was just trying this as I was bored using the uscc eclair ruu.
Fastboot doesn't work either gives error can not flash h-boot on the phone. Hopefully that helps you out.
Edit: By the way qb what you doing with a uscc desire anyway? You venturing away from the photon or something I seen you over there but at this time there is no way to flash it I have found. Making img files does nothing and neither does fastboot. I am tempted to try the downgrader for the bravo for the heck of it as I don't care to brick it. Cept the woman would shoot me.

I think is interesting for the bad_boys question, first is a all-in-one procedure to SOFF, Recovery acquisition and Root, after becouse to root a Desire already on GB require a more complicate procedure respect a froyo based one.
Revolutionary does not root your phone a jmclue said. It uses temp root (I believe) to gain s-off and flash a custom recovery.
The easiest way to obtain root after using revolutionary is to flash an already rooted custom rom.
If you want to root your current rom I think there is a zip file you can flash to do this.
I personally rooted my desire and flashed recovery using an older version of unrevoked (I think it was 3.21). I s-off'ed using alpharev some months later. It is not necessary to be s-off to flash custom roms. If you can get it to work I personally think it is easier to use unrevoked as it is a one click solution. Read all the guides before attempting this however.

I also used unrevoked 3.21 .. but I'm not sure that it works on 2.3.3 (as - it seems - Revolutionary does) .. naturally another way is to come back on froyo.
Yes revolutionary is for 0.93.0001 & 1.02.0001 hboots and is very very simple and straight foward to use

S-off has nothing to do with android version on your phone or with root. Everything depends on your hboot version.
Revolutionary does the job with 0.93 and 1.02 hboot, for older versions of hboots Alpharev Reflash Utility should be used.
The problem with Unrevoked is that it cannot bypass never hboots to flash superuser to system.

which way should i go plz help me for easiest way thank u
imo jmcclue has given the right advice and dont do anything else. You can find detailed instructions in the guide he has referred to but the overall picture is like this:-
- Use revolutionary from revolutionary.io to get SOFF. As part of this process you will also get a custom recovery.
- Flash root package from revolutionary.io if you want to get root on current rom else choose a custom rom and flash from recovery.
Thats all
Hello all,
I have put the S-OFF and the Hboot 6.93.1002 using the revolutionary.io tool.
Right now, I want to put my phone with the stock hbook and S-ON.
I looked for it and I saw a lot of people saying to install old RUUs.
I tried these ones:
RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.1_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121684.exe
RUU_HTC Desire Android 2.3 Upgrade (Gingerbread).exe
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_122704.exe
RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121865.exe
And all of them failed, they do not restore hboot.
Could you help me? My phone is GSM version.
