[q] s-off help needed!!!!! - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I try to get my desire S-OFF'ed (it's PV4 and 0.93.0001 hboot). But when i try to flash the hboot via fastboot the singature gets rejected. And revolutinary method is not working too (i get the error that " Your device ace, with hboot 0.93.0001 is not supported at this time").
Any help?
COULD SOME1 GIME THE LINK OF AN OFFICIAL RUU THAT WOULD UPDATE MY HBOOT TO
HTC Desire (bravo) 0.93.0001, 1.02.0001
HTC Desire CDMA (bravoc) 1.06.0000
BTW. HOW TO KNOW WITCH ONE I HAVE?? CMDA or THAT OTHER ONE.

Isn't Ace = Desire HD?

Well, I don't know. I've took this phone from my mom and gave her the wildfire. I think the desire is rooted, because i installed a ROM 3.0 sense and ive got like 200KB of free space.. Im trying to s-off it and that son of an linux doesnt work... :S HELP HELP HELP!

A great place to go is cyanogenmod.com and look at the wiki, they go step by step of how to get s-off, eng-off and everything else you would need, but you do need to know if you are using desire or desire hd

No need to go cyanogenmod.com, xda also provides something like this:

So why my HBOOT says its a BRAVO huh? I know its a desire because the name on the box, hboot and working roms of desire. IS IT POSSIBLE TO RE-ROOT AND S-OFF BY UPGRADING THE HBOOT TO THE GOOD VERSION?

From personal experience on a Desire, messing with the HBoot can have a chance of bricking the device. I got stuck where I could only enter commands through fastboot and adb, then tried everything possible to get it back to no avail.

Why don't you root and get with s-off unrevoked (root) and alpharev 1.8 (s-off)? Alpharev 1.8 supports the hboot version of your desire:

I know. It should be rooted because i've installed a custom ROM. But for some reason i cant flash an alpharev HBOTT. The fastboot says that singature gets rejected.

That was not my question. My question was, why you don't use alpharev live cd to get s-off? You wrote you could not go s-off with revolutionary. So you must be still s-on. And with s-on you cannot use fastboot.

So you burned the iso with magiciso on a cd and the computer does not boot from it? Is that right?
If not, could you explain this sentence "Evertime i try to make that live cd with MagicIso my dvd rom opens up" a little more (what exactly do you do?), please? Because I do not understand it.

I found you had to have a stock rooted rom installed to use alpharev 1.8 i followed the instructions from here and all worked first time

Erm... PVT5? Is this right. If it is then this needs to be cracked. Maybe you were suppose to hit 4 instead of 5. Please check again.

ok i have tried that with Unrevoked 3.3.2. i get a force close on the desire screen when it tried the Root. I am using the AmonRA 2.0 recovey.
Perviously i used Unrevoked to root with out custom Img. i have CWM on there. Would this cause any issues .
Should i flash the stock recovery ?

which guide did u use?
i used this one. i don't remember what version of unrevoked i used, but probably the one linked in that guide. i had no problems rooting my device, which seems to be the same like yours.
i had CWM on my desire before, but switched to amonra, cuz i found partitioning sd-cards more difficult in CWM.

i'm using windows7. i think XP should do it as well.
do you have the usb drivers installed that come with htc sync e.g. (you should remove htc sync if you have it installed. follow the guide i posted above).
Using windows 7 . ok i have faloowed that giude its the same as what i have done in the past . When unrevoked . Still get the Force close on the app trying to Root
let me get this clear, u rooted ur desire with unrevoked, ok?
did u flash any new rom? or u just using the stock htc sense?

[Q] Unrooting help

i've been searching this site and Google for sometime now, i need to unroot my Desire as i'm sending it off to get repaired.
i have found that the way to unroot is to use an RUU, but i don't know which one to use, my phone specs are:
- SLCD screen
- UK T-Mobile branded
should i use:
RUU_Bravo_TMO_UK_1.15.110.11_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4. 05.00.11_release_122755.exe
RUU_Bravo_TMO_UK_1.21.110.4_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.0 6.00.02_2_release_127570_signed.exe
or
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27_release
i also seen a thread about a PB99IMG file and using a gold card?
any help would be great, seen so many threads but none to answer my question fully.
My hboot is 0.93.0001
and radio is 5.10.05.17_2
If this helps, please let me know!
when you rooted your phone, did you make a nandroid backup of the stock HTC 2.2 froyo ROM? if you did it makes finding the right RUU for you A LOT easier.
If you do have it then restore that, go to settings/ about phone/ software and check the Build number, and cross reference it with the RUU.
i didn't nandroid backup stock 2.2
my build number is 2.29.405.5 CL293415 release-keys
would this RUU work? RUU_Bravo_Froyo_TMO_UK_2.12.110.4_R_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157560_signed.zip

When you are not s-off, you do not need this downgrader, because you could not have changed your partition sizes.

AFAIK all you really need to do is find the correct RUU for your phone and run it since you're S-ON.

How to turn S ON with alpharev HBOOT

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

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.

Download PB99IMG_stock from alpharev.nl and flash your phone, then download htc sync from htc.com.
Then, if you want 2.3 rom - download 2.3 ruu from http://www.htcdev.com/process/legal_download/152, extract, connect to htc sync and then click RUU_HTC Desire Android 2.3 Upgrade (Gingerbread).exe. After few minutes you'll get stcok fresh anndroid 2.3 with s-on.

How it works is with a RUU you can only use the same version or newer. This is because you cannot flash an older hboot. The downgrader puts a very low hboot version on so all ruu hboots are seen as newer, even though they are not

yep .. desire s appears on video but as you can read in the memo associated in the same youtube page it works even on "HTC Desire, HTC Desire S, HTC Wildfire, HTC Aria, HTC Incredible S, HTC Droid Incredible 2, HTC Thunderbolt, HTC Evo 4G, HTC View, HTV Flyer, HTC Sensation, HTC Evo 3D and the myTouch 4G" (the memo contains also text of all procedure ..
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.

unrevoked wont work on gb wwe. Use superoneclick instead, reboot your pc until it doesnt freeze (not responding)

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
