just wondering if any one has heard on any developments on how to root the desire on 2.3.3 , i pray someone is doing something, im pretty dam fed up of this update -.-
Heres an idea. Instead of spamming the q&a section about the gingerbread update again, I suggest you go find the other 7 or so threads on gingerbread and find out for yourself.

sorry :/ i just really want this peice of **** software off my phone, quick question is there any way to fake a bootloader ( eg make the boot loader in the 2.2 ruu seem like the 1.xx boot loader you get with the 2.3.3 update but its actually the 0.94 bootlader ? if you get what i mean, maby that way the ruu would flash propperly and i would be back on 2.2 )

Research before doing anything is always the best policy.

just look in the android development section, rather that looking at the first few pages make your way to page 20+ you will find plenty.......
Why do you want to go back to 2.1? If you want to get the Orange OTA update you can't as they're no stock RUUs available so you'd have to wait.
Otherwise, follow thie guide:

I really want to root my deisre, but I dont know where to start.
My system information on desire is
Android version 2.2
Baseband 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2
Kernel 2.6.32.15-gd966f2c0
Build 2.14.207.1 CL233777
All I want to do is be able to install apps2SD, I read somewhere with app2sd+ it lets you fool the phone in thinking you have more internal memory is this true?
I am a complete NooB at this so I just dont want to jump right in, I would like to somehow backup my stock ios so if anythink does go wrong and can reinstall back to default. All help welcome
shanks
look at the stickies, theres ghuides for everything!
if anything does go wrong, then just get the same RUU you've got now, and flash..
hope this helps!
Seems my ruu is.nt there?

You can indeed but if you read the guides carefully and be thorough you can't really go wrong
Thanks I'll have ago on Saturday off work then, if I do all this and 2.3 comes out can I still update or have I got to install a 2.3 Rom.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
A 2.3 official update to a branded desire is not going to come soon, anyhow you'll be rooted soon and a custom rom version of 2.3 will be released months before the official, so you might as well just stick with a custom 2.3 ROM.
But if you decide you want the official 2.3, then you apply the RUU, and then the update.
Ok thanks witch Rom is the best out there for app2SD?

Anything that supports EXT4
EXT3 is enough for A2SD+
Am going to try leedroid that seems the best out there from what I read
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
It's not, just a lot of people seem to recommend it...
What would you say is better?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
It's not really fair on the dev's to state a 'best' rom, i would suggest you try a few different roms out as it will be down to your own personal preference. The most popular ones are listed on the first page of the Android Development section of the forum. Have fun flashing
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
That's about as good a reply as you'll get
Yes your probably right, I'll try leedroid out first. If it dose what it say I don't think ill try anymore. Just want 1gb of internal memory lol

Hi forum...
In the Sonyericsson X10 section, we have a flash util, so we can flash whatever firmware version we want...
Do something like that not exist for the desireHD ?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
It's called radio S-OFF.

Thanks for your answer..
So there is no flashtool to use, in order to revert back to an older Rom like them we have available to our X10 phones ?
The x10 can be flashed with all kind of stock roms using a simple flashtool, and without any changes like Root and s-off things...
The tool probably act like Sonyericssons update service SEUS..
But to understand this correct, there is no way back at all for us who didn't think about it, and just updated to the latest firmware ?
I'm sorry for the questions, but many things is called something else, and looks completely different here at desire hd section, when I am used to the x10 terms...
So it is all a little confusing...

Take a look in the Android Development section of the DHD Forum and you will find all you need. You do need to get root and then RADIO S-OFF but there are two simple tools to achieve that. See HERE for the guide.
If u accepted the latest OTA and did not have radio S-OFF then there is no way back................at the moment.

these are the things need to allow your phone to accept any roms by flashing
those are like locks/obstacles for your phone u have to unlock all of it to be able to flash those roms but you will need to downgrade your firmware version if its any higher than 1.32 then root the phone using visionary and use the easy desire hd radio tool to do the s-off,radio-off,etc.
Check this thread, should explain it all.
I just put the tmobile leaked unrooted version of 2.3.3 and want to root with clockwork and all that so can anyone help?
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
You should fo rooted first then put the rmk or xboarder versions.. now you are stuck until root is available. You can't even downgrade, I believe..
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using Tapatalk
Always, alwayssss search before you do something. Because now I don't believe there is a way to downgrade. Check the Dev thread to see if there is an option to downgrade.
And of course this belongs in the Q&A thread.

Little late to ask questions now, hope you enjoy the Tmo G2 Gingerbread, cause you are stuck........why don't people read threads first before they act is beyond me, it clearly states you will be unrooted, stuck with no root and s_on if you flash that leak rom. But since your posting your Q in the dev section and not the Q & A section kinda shows you don't read much of anything. FYI there is a rule that you don't post Q - questions in the dev section, only roms,kernels,radios,guides, and the alike, not questions....enjoy.
