Hi,
I have used Alpharev X on my HTC Wildfire but is it possible to use revolutionary ver Alpharev'ed phonet because I want to try revolutionary and I don't want to brick my phone?
Someone please help me.
But why? There's no difference, with the exception that Revolutionary allows to to flash a Custom Recovery in 1 go after S-OFF, while in AlphaRev X, you had to get it separately.
Yes I can tell you that there is no difference. I have done that because I thought that it will fix alpharev's problems with htc sense roms. But it didn't.
I just wanted to test Revolutionary on an Alpharev'ed HTC Wildfire.

Stock hboot ---> alpharev hboot ---> revert back to stock hboot ---> revolutionary. This makes no difference.
Stock hboot ---> alpharev hboot ---> revolutionary hboot. Here the 2nd process (revolutionary) mostly shouldn't succeed AFAIK. Because the exploit is for the stock hboot 1.01.0001. (corrections welcome)

Hello everybody
I want to update my 0.80 HBOOT for S-OFF, now my question is what is the right? I live in Austria & bought my Wildfire with the provider T-Mobile Austria.
Thank you.
Since your Wildfire is already debranded I assume, use any Froyo RUU. Personally, I used WWE 2.22.405.1, since that has HBoot 1.01.0001, which has no issues with AlphaRev X.

If I remember correctly, you can get S-OFF with unrevoked if you have HBOOT < 1.01.0001
Also I don't think you can change the HBOOT with a RUU, because before alpharevx it was possible to downgrade the RUU, but not the HBOOT.
Since I'm new here, I cannot give you the link to unrevoked, but you will find it easyly with google.
Good luck!

First Thanks for the reply
Yes it's debranded, but now I have another question: the WWE 2.22.405.1 is a .zip file, how do i update the hboot with it?

There's an EXE file as well on the Shipped ROM's site for WWE 2.22.405.1. It's a little bit lower in the table.
Anyway, if you want to try with the ZIP file (I tried the Zip first - didn't work for me), then download it, rename it to PC49IMG.zip, place it on the root of your SDCard, and reboot in HBoot mode. It will automatically detect the file and attempt to install it.

Nope.
Unrevoked S-OFF tool (called unrevoked forever) is not present for wildfire. But instead present for some other htc phones.

What do you mean by "present "?
All I know is that there is an unrevoked version that works with WF before HBOOT 1.01.001.
This can't be used for S-OFF?

All it does for hboot 0.80 is pushing of custom recovery through a nand exploit. The phone still stays s-on.
But such kind of tool is available for some other htc devices.

Okay thanks for clearing that up. I wasn't aware of that.
Has the HTC Desire CDMA with hboot 1.06 been rooted yet ?
Sent from my HTC Desire
alpharev X (still in beta so be careful) does work with 1.06 hboots, making device S-OFFed.
then you can either flash a custom recovery with fastboot and then with the recovery some custom ROMs
or after S-OFFing just run unrEVOked and it will root your current ROM
I thought Alpharev only worked on the GSM Desire.

Yes, the old alpharev (r18) only works for gsm desires.. The new alpharev (alpharev x) works for both desires.
But the thing is, in order to gain S-OFF, don't you need root? In some other places I read, to gain root you need S-OFF....
Please correct me if I'm wrong...

Hi guys,
I have a Desire with HBOOT 0.75 and CM7 but want to use the Revolutionary tool to get S-OFF now. So I need to upgrade my HBOOT to 0.93.0001...
I tried to install:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed
because I read it contains HBOOT 0.93, is that right? But I got Error 131, that means I have to use a goldcard, right? Is there another way to upgrade to HBOOT 0.93?
Thanks for your help!

CM7? Then you be S-OFF by now. Unless you are talking about something else

Im running CM7 = CyanogenMod 7.1.0RC1.
This one is S-OFF? How? I wanted to get S-OFF using the Revolutionary tool before updating to 7.1stable...
There is actually a CM7 Hboot and that's what I was talking about. Check http://alpharev.nl and maybe this can get you s-off.

Thx, used AlphaRev 1.8 with no problem!
Upgraded from HBOOT 0.75 TO 0.93
[hi,
1. Downgrade to YOUR original STOCK rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667
2. Once installed go to settings, about phone and firmware update. you may need to repeat the step a few time.
3. HBOOT 0.93 installed.
Hello, i have unlocked my phone with htc official tool, and it have installed a 1.03.0003 hboot. Now I want to flash a custom rom. But it is possible to "undo" all and go back to a 0.93 hboot for flashing (example) cm7 based roms?
Thanks
NO...i think....
Apparently it is possible to gain root access, but about changing hboot I'm not so sure if revolutionary team would bother with it. In summary - fail.
SwiftKeyed from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk.
in fact, i am now able only to install stock hboot custom roms, like ics beta.. revolutionary tool works only with 1.02 hboot, at the moment.. I have tried goldcard, flash old hboot with fastboot, but nothing.. Hope someone will be able to "delete" this hboot...
During AlphaRev 1.8 HBOOT reflash utility, my phone freezed at stage 3 of 3 for about an hour... Pulled out the battery, turn back on & stuck at Fastboot.. (see image) managed to switch between fasboot & hboot.. it'll hang when i switch to Android System Recovery mode...
cant even do the Goldcard
I need help...

Use your other android phone for the goldcard. Then flash the 2.2 WWE RUU. If that fails, use the 2.3 one.
Thanx bortak, i'll try..
Bortak, why adb still cant find my device? for Fastboot it's ok...
I'm preety sure you won't be able to do what you're up to with Alpharev cause you have 0.93 hboot, you need revolutionary for that.
But, if you use 2.2 RUU it can happen to downgrade hboot to 0.88 so then you can try with Alpharev.

Alpharev is ok with 0.93(mine was 0.93 and 2.29.405.5) but it is obsolete and requires stock rooted ROM (unrevoked root must be done prior s-off procedure), revolutionary can do everything in one go I prefer Revolutionary

1. S-Off
2. Upgrade my Desire to Cyanogenmod 7 or Cyanogenmod 9 (which is stable...)

Like kotag said revolutionary. But before flashing of rom I suggest you to upgrade recovery, because revolutionary installs some old version. My recommendation is 4ext, install 4ext recovery updater and then flash recovery from it.
