Root using unrevoked
S-off using iso from alvpharev.nl
I think that a good Rom is ownheredesirehd
Just Google how to do it all or look on here, there are so many forums for everything that there's no point in explaining it all,
If you have any questions that you can't find a forum for, just reply to this

Well I finally bought a Desire HD and it's a great phone. I have done allot of things with it but it felt like I wanted more. Then I found this website and found out about rooting a phone. I hope to learn allot here.
My question: Can please someone give me all the sticky's or threads for learning everything I need to learn about rooting before I actually do it myself?
Thank you in advance.
Hi, welcome to XDA community.
It seems that you've come to the right place for rooting and flashing custom roms. All the basic information regarding rooting, downgrading can be found in the 1st sticky post in Desire HD Android Development section here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1079108
Please do read them thoroughly and search for other threads for any questions or problems encountered involving rooting your phone.
Please do your best and good luck.

Can't I just use gingerbreak or doesn't it work on a desire HD?
It depends on what base you're on. The latest base that can be rooted gingerbreak is 2.36. Any higher base is not possible to root, for now.

Yep, downgrade is achievable latest on 2.37.762.2 and later version. Stock 2.42 and above will have to wait.

I received a body protecter recently and it says to apply with liquid soap and water!?
.... I haven't got round to putting it on yet. Can you tell me if i should avoid this method. - did your device become water damaged this way?
Sent from my Desire HD
sure as hell it messed up mine one, that liquid got under the digitalizer and soaked my lcd, it did work but it looked like real liquid display(then i got pissed off and took mine apart and found it really hard to remove lcd from housing since it was glued all over the place and i got even more pissed of and went on it like a terminator, then spent 200 bucks in service shop so they would replace it badly(i have two small dirt dots under the screen)) lol search around and you'll find a few other guys with same problem, you can do it nicely even without water trust me **** off that liquid solution you don't want my story to happen
Thanks for the heads up! Appreciate it!

Does anyone have a nand backup of an Orange UK ROM? My Phone is a new-ish desire (PVT4) with a amoled screen.
I need to send the phone back for warranty work but didn't backup the default ROM and am unable to find a stock orange nand to restore. ( I did find one but the phone would not boot up, just sat at the HTC logo screen )
Hope someone can help me
Thanks.

I know there are no RUUs, That's why I asked for a rom backup. If anyone has an Orange rom (rooted or not) then could you please do a backup using clockwork or RA and post a link.
Thanks
You don't need it. Just flash a wwe ruu. Htc service centre won't have a problem with it. I've sent at least 5 handsets for repair this way.

The 2.3.3 from HTCdev.com is definitely warranty covered. They do state that 2.2 wwe aren't covered unless you should be on that so theres a risk there, but not with 2.3

Hi mate.
I been thinking about sending my desire back for a while as its got an overheating problem, I'm just waiting till closer to the end of my warrenty.
There is a guide on xda somewhere, I'll try and find the link, basically someone uploaded a eclair image, then you update the official froyo update over the top and trouble are back to stock.
Its takes some work to find it but it is out there. I saved the files somewhere so I'll look around but use Google and you can find it.

His phone is slcd. This will brick it. Also apparently it doesn't work any more. Not that it matters as its no longer required

Ok Ok..
To everyone that commented rudely in reply to this guys post.. YOU can go learn to read and write. Telling someone else that they are not good at something is a very good indicator that you are lacking in something yourself. Next time, instead of stopping your oh so important lives to be disrespectful, go stick your phone where the sun doesn't shine and leave others alone.

I need someone that speaks Chinese and has basic knowledge of Flashing roms, this is very important and might be a break-though for the HTC ONE X.
Please let me know by PM, thanks.
P.S. This might seem irrelevant, but it really is, and if there is success, what I am doing will donate greatly to the HTC ONE X society.

This doesn't hold information about S-OFF, but a glitch or something that supposedly works.. I know for a fact that the Chinese can S-OFF, trying to find out how.

Hey Mr Hofs, if you remember, I had an issue with a messed up HTC ONE X a while ago, that HTC ONE X was S-OFFed for sure. I found out that they use a "GoldCard" and "HOX Files" so S-OFF devices, but this method is what a guy that does S-OFF gave me, he doesn't really cooperate with me, just gave me the link. The physical "GoldCard" is very expensive, costs almost like a new HOX, but I do wonder if this method should work.

This is for the Galaxy S4 or something, and it mentions HTC ONE S too.. dunno
---------
My question is (to the Chinese understanders) what are the exact instructions, I edit the TXT file that they mention, but do they say that I can change the Main-Version to whatever I want, and the CID to whatever I want??? or something else?
P.S., if you look on the last reply page on that Thread, you can see it is quite active, i see posts from "3 hours ago" saying "thanks" and what not. But you need to reply in order to download the file so it's not really an indication of this method working. :-\
Good luck, this stuff has been looked into time and time again. I don't give a flying hoot about s-off, flash via pc and plenty of custom roms to pick from.

Well we do appreciate your contribution, it's good to know you don't give a "flying hoot", thank you kindly.
Some of us are stuck because there is no S-OFF, I have two devices that are pretty much screwed until I can do the S-OFF.
The first step is already an epic fail,, downgrade the hboot to 0.95.....Uhm no way without s-off.....

Secondly can you elaborate how the two HOX's are screwed.

Google translate messes it up, i think he didn't say to downgrade to 0.95, i think it's the last step or something. It really needs a good translation from someone who knows Chinese.

Like I said, the two HOXs came with an Australian CID OPTUS001. And a Version-Main: 4.29, which does not exist in the OPTUS001 CID RUUs, which means I couldn't use RUU to get back to stock in order to update later to JB.
I went through it with Waseem on this forum and we found out that the phones were definately S-OFFed. God knows why the heck someone did this, but Chinese have an S-OFF technology.
I coule buy the Goldcard for S-OFF, but it costs like 400$... So I am trying to find a cheaper way in their forums.

Well i dare to say that you can better spend your time on useful things. They are trying to find a way to s-off for at least over 18 months now. No succes what so ever. Chances are very ....very small ! But if you do you are the man

Yeah and I am sure people that are much more talented than me in development are working on it. But the Chinese have a way of hiding stuff from the world, and they might've done something that works.
I had an idea to buy the Javacard and then "rent" it to anyone who needs S-OFF. But I am not sure people will be interested
