Installing stock HTC ROM while rooted

If I downgrade my HBOOT from 0.92 to 0.80 and root it and install Clockmodrecovery.
Can I download the original HTC Froyo ROM from the sticky thread with official RUU ROM's and flash it?

No. You don't root a bootloader. If you install the official ROM, it will remove root.

Okay thanks.

I see you're looking after the same as me, take a look in this thread. It's the official 2.2 rom with root access

That is a custom ROM, not the official/stock ROM (it's just very similar).

[Q] Fully rooted & RUU

I've fully rooted my Desire with RUU. But I have a question now...
If I still can use RUU including higher firmware version to flash my device or not? If so if I need completely root my Desire again after using RUU?
Very appreciate any information you can give me
Thanks

An RUU is used to unroot your phone, and it's best to get the latest one to do this as otherwise it might not run

Thanks for your information.
So if I still want to keep my device fully rooted, how to upgrade to new firmware with offical ROM and where can I grab the offical ROM?

No, running an RUU will unroot you. If you're rooted you can't get official updates so you'd need to use a custom ROM based on the update

Thanks for your information

Why you want rooted phone if you don't want custom rom?
With custom rom you can get exelent performans and visualisation.
I use HD rom and it is exelent.

[Q] How to install the leaked Gingerbread /.

I got an Orange branded phone. Unlocked, de-branded and with a gold card now. Currently running android 2.2 with software version: 2.29.405.2
I came to know about this official android 2.3 leak from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1035402
I downloaded Bravo_Gingerbread_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.06.707.0_Radio_32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08_test_183945 .zip
I do not wish to root my phone. I would prefer the HTC ROM only.
How do I install on my phone the update i downloaded on my PC ?

You have to ROOT to install that version.

Root or wait for proper Official version.

Your must root your phone to install the HTC Gingerbread Asia Rom. You should really root your phone :
- Root it with Unrevoked
- Put the zip of the rom on your memory card
- Install Rom Manager
- Flash the clockwork recovery with Rom Manager
- Install the zip
- Enjoy

Download a custom version based on that ROM as that is the untouched test ROM. Try mine if you wanna taster

[Q] Stock un-root

I've rooted with revolutionary and used 4ext revovery. if i want to unroot and go back to stock, delete custom revovery and s-on again, can i just use official 2.3 RUU and overwrite all ? or its not that simple?
thanks

ruu wipes all root etc it should also remove your custom recovery as ruu reverts phone back to stock settings and software , so yes you can use 2.3 htc dev ruu to to retore you back to stock however you are much better using a 2.2 ruu as 2.3 feels more half baked then 2.2 roms .
if you want to remove su you can try gingerunroot from the market which i think just wipes su and the applicalbe binaries from your phone

[Q] Downgrading And Upgrading all over again

Hey Guys I just did the Froyo Downgrade onto my Desire Z and some of the apps I use just can't run on Froyo... I have the system update to Gingerbread android 2.3.3 with HTC Sense 2.1 and I want to go back to Gingerbread....
Is it okay to install the Gingerbread update?

well if you want to forget about obtaining root access and s-off that is possible only from froyo then you may update to gingerbread.
Else you can go and follow the rooting guide to obtain root, s-off after which you can flash custom roms of your choice i.e, Froyo/ Gingerbread / ICS
