Run ruu of your chioce http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Bravo
The one to use if you desire isn't branded is:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe
Install HTC Sync on your computer (you don't need to run it). Enable USB debugging. Connect the desire with usb (charge only) and run the ruu-file.

are you sure about you did s-off and eng-off?
go into your bootloader and make sure it says "eng s-off" at the top..
Yeah eng s is off. I managed to flash the ROM just not the radio with that error.

you tried with FASTBOOT COMMANDER tool?
While you solve the problem with the sdk it can help you
edit::::::but IF YOU DONĀ“T HAVE (like Mr_JMM & me said to you) THE S-OFF AND ENG OFF THE PROBLEM IS NOT SDK, IS YOUR DEVICE
I've double checked and it is off. The thing is when I open ask manager the command prompt dialog flashes and nothing happens again. I downloaded the bootloader interface driver. Where can I get the fastboot commander from?
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
Sorry to labour this point, but what method did you check you have radio s-off?
Also, and again, I apologise for the simplistic question but sometimes it's easy to miss something, have you got the phone in Fastboot screen or HBOOT (Bootloader)?
Hi guys I'm terribly sorry. I didn't realise that eng s and radio s are two different things. My bootloader just says ace pvt s off. I tried the eng s off tool I successfully flashed the radio. I had radio s off due to rooting previously. Thanks for your help guys. And I would like to apologise for the inconvenience. Mods please close this thread.

When you run the RUU, it will not overwrite the hboot so you will still be s-off. Then just flash recovery and the revolutionary root zip.
Although why would you do all that? Why not just flash an existing rooted 2.3 Rom?
It appears to me that you don't know what you want
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
Then Go with a custom ROM - Official is a piece of sh*t.
But if you want to go with the official, then flash the HBOOT Downgrader form alpharev.nl then flash official RUU, then use Revolutionary.io to get ROOT and S-OFF - but very soon you will flash a custom ROM
Why bother downgrade to RUU then s-off again when simply flashing the RUU will remain s-off? Pointless

Hanging at Zerging root line..

So now I have a new problem , now instead of an error it hangs on the "Zerging root... This might take a while' and won't move... Any ideas? HTC Sync uninstalled , firewall off antivirus too. Drives installed , debug mode on. Hboot 0.93 or something like this.. Help?

That is what it says when I try to s off my dads desire using revolutionery..
Can itbe because my dads desire has an update but he won't install because it fails to download S or keeps saying it is damaged/corrupted?
Can I even s off using it or its different from the desire S?

Your situation is not that clear to me.........be more specific as much as you can giving out details that would also help the reader of your issue.
For the meantime go to this link and make sure you followed all instructions carefully then you can go back in this thread for further clarifications if your issue still persists.
Sorry , wrote the OP from my phone..
Anyways the situation is : When I try to root the phone with revolutenary , once it gets to Zerging root after some time it says Root failed or something with a sad smiley.. What could be the cause for this? The phone also has a official update through built-in update feature but as soon as it's done downloading it it says that the downloaded file ( AKA update ) is corrupted/damaged and asks me if I want to redownload and it won't help either.
Hope I was clear enough.
Is it a desire or desire S?
Root and s-off 2 different things. Zerging (which I have never heard of) is nothing to do with root or s-off on the desire.

Did you select the correct phone when you obtain the beta key? Try doing it again. Including downloading the application.

Yeah, but then you said it would be easier to give yes or no answers, thus, expressing no wish to read his most useful guide and learn something in the process.
Even if I was willing to help, which I'm usually not when someone refuses to help themselves, I wouldn't be able to see what exactly you want as you can't tell the difference between ram and storage memory.

The dev of that rom states requirements A2SD+ version = stock hboot. or the data++ version = Bravo Hboot: CM7 R2/DATA++/BRAVO SENSE/N1 TABLE. so what ever version you flashed you must also flash the hboot for it

For One V no S-OFF exploit has been made till now, so if you haven't got one s-off by factory default phone (which is quite unlikeley) you cannot do that.
