ok well I am from the xperia play section.
my friend has a HTC DESIRE gsm it is currently rooted and has recovery however it currently doesn't boot (could fix this by flashing rom via recovery. ) I need to get back to stock gb or froyo with root is preferred. RUU isn't working I think driver problem but I can't fix it as I am not near him I use team viewer but when he plugs his phone in he loses net.
so I also flashed the stock gb with root zip but itsaid installation aborted
I also flashed the gb sense rom with aroma installer on here but it bootloops
please help.

i am unsure on the hboot although if you tell me the possible options i can probably remember. i think it is 0.93.0001
he is using clockworkmod recovery uh the latest version. 5.x
he has no sd card partitions other than the fat32 1.
the rom he was previously using was official GB > miui > oxygen > runnymede > failed to boot and now stuck in bootloop but cant flash back to stock.
can you even get it into fastboot? ive had this recently, i used fastboot flash and then all the required things. It was my radio that was causing the bootloop. so as soon as i flashed that it boooted fine.

i didnt even know their was a fastboot for htc desire i use a xperia play which has fastboot never knew htc desire did . where can i get the files i need to flash? i guess the fastboot is the same as the fastboot.exe for xperia play? please send me link i am complete noob to the way HTC work.
Memories (even if they are right) does not help at all.
So tell your friend the following:
He should turn off his Desire, then press and hold volume down plus power button until a white screen with the androids at the bottom appears (he should see HBOOT in capital letters, blue highlighted). Now he should tell EVERYTHING what's written there and you post EXACTLY that here.
After this done, advise him to press the power button. Now he should see FASTBOOT in capital letters, red highlighted. If that's so, ask him turn off his Desire. If that's not so, let him tell you what happened instead and you post that here.
sorry late reply the hboot is the .93 one I said above.

Seriously dude go and follow what matdroid asked you. Im not sure how it goes on the xperia play section but here on the desire section we require users seeking help to post those hboot information. Why so? Because the Desire is special and needs precise instructions.

Can you post the complete information you have about your hboot? You can't be S-Off after you updated to the official Gingerbread file from HTC... unless you did something else afterwards.
Try s-off again...

S-off but doesn't say alpharev or revolutionary. I haven't seen anything like this. Can the official HTC bootloader unlock do this? Strange to me at least.

As kotag82 said, you need to flash the downgrade_hboot then run the ruu, nothing else in between.
Go to alpharev.nl to have the downgrade_hboot

Hello all,
A friend of mine has rooted his HTC Desire by using the Mildwild ROM. Sometimes his phone is crashing with this ROM, so he wants to unroot his phone. Because I am such an awesome friend I offered to do this (actually he asked me, but whatever ). Right now I am stuck in the process of restoring his stock ROM.
The Bootloader gives me this information:
AlphaRev CM7 r2
Bravo PVT4 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.93.1002
MICROP-051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
Radio-4.05.00.11
Aug 10 2010, 17:52:18
So I need to restore the stock HBOOT. Therefore I download this file: http://alpharev.nl/PB99IMG_downgrade.zip. I change the name to 'PB99IMG.zip' and copy-paste it to the root of the SD card. When I try to flash the HBOOT in fastboot, this is what I get:
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
I don't know what is going wrong here, but obviously I'm doing something wrong. I hope you guys can help me find out what I need to do else.
Download the downgrader from alpharev website as the HBOOT is write protected and flash it from fastboot. Then download the htc 2.3 RUU from HTC dev and in fastboot connect to the pc and flash it back to stock

Stop being a dumbass, not everyone is "expert" as you. If your phone does not boot, you just don't give a f*ck about the forum you're posting.

Oh, I'm sorry mister "developer" if I hurt your altruistic feelings. My phone also doesn't boot sometimes but I tend to read the stickies and know what was the last thing I did.
Now that I remember, no wonder you give your approval to this since you did that too on occasion. Lol.

Gentlemen, I would like you to help me with this problem. I am sorry if I have posted this thread in the wrong (sub)forum, but I don't think that should be a reason for someone to not help me with this. I do know my fair share about computers, but phones are kind of new for me. Especially when it comes to (un)rooting them. So all your help would be very appreciated.
Did you changed PB99IMG_downgrade.zip. to PB99IMG.zip ?
And after you flash the hboot you cand install a ruu
thanks

i cant enter recovery mode, i cant enter to the rom at all, i get: bootloader err command error !!!, i cant flash a rom with fastboot (i have debugging activated).
i can do nothing with my phone now.

2.3 RUU is made for all devices and it can be obtained from htc dev site, I made a thread about it try to find it in Q&A section. To gain s-off after RUU is not a problem at all.

Next time, make sure the file was downloaded correctly using MD5 checksum. It's best practice!
