Hey guys,
I have a htc desire wich have a booting loop. i try to reinstall diferrent roms but unsuccesfull. I need official rom version 2.22.75.3 from orange spain. if anyone can help me with that will be much apreciated.
Thanks
There are no Orange RUU's available. You can use the Gingerbread dev RUU from HTCdev.com This unbrands but retains warranty with HTC.
i can't find anytyhing there. If i try to put the rom on a sdcard and use a gold card to flash the phone, when i try to flash teh phone i receive thsi message " can't open zip file " I'm kinda stuck here
http://htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads
Yeah its stupid that site, you have to go to "kernel source2 then "See downloads" to get to the link above.
same shi... " open zip file failed "....
What zip file? Its an .exe that you run from your PC.
strange...i've downloaded HTC Desire Android 2.3 Upgrade wich is a zip file. i put that zip file on a gold card and when i press power button to flash it i receive that message. btw ,wich file is an exe file from that download website?
The top one that says HTC android 2.3 upgrade. The exe may be within a zip, not sure but its the exe you must use

Try to download a PB99IMG.zip rom from shipped-roms. com and put it in your goldcard, maybe it will work.
I'd rather he learned from his mistakes first

finaly i flashed the phone with the flash specified, but now i am stuck on hboot 1.02.0001 an di can't unlcok the phone. Is there any option to downgrade to 0.93.0xxx?
What do you mean unlock the phone?
You wanted to return to stock, I assumed for warranty return. What exactly do you want to do? if this is not the case you should remember to be clear about the infromation you give in your first post.
yes, now i'm on a stock rom. but is there any posibility to downgrade to HBOOT 0.93.xxx1 because i want to unlock the phone now, and hboot 1.02.xxx1 is not supported
What do you mean by unlock???????
phone is network locked. and i want to use vodafone sim. utill that i used orange spain sim.
Ok just wanted to be clear.
Best bet use revolutionary to s-off, then fastboot flash their downgrader.img hboot. This will allow you to flash an older RUU hopefully without need for goldcard

Hey all,
I didn't know where to ask, so I'll try my luck here
I have a PB99IMG.zip that downgrade to 2.1 Android version and works great, but I would like one that will downgrade to a WWE 2.2 version.
It has to be PB99IMG.zip (rooted preferred, but isn't a must) because I need to use it if/when unavailable to get in recovery, and PB99IMG can be run from bootloader.
I tried downloading couple of WWEs and renaming them to PB99IMG.zip but it didn't work. Bootloader reads the file, but doesn't give me an option to install it.
Any suggestion?
Thanks.
You need to extract the ROM.zip from the RUU and rename it PB99IMG.zip

I tried extracting this RUU with 7zip but it failed... I guess I'm doing something wrong :/
I'm uploading it to shipped-roms at the moment, check back there later. File name is:
PB99IMG_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.zip
I must say that you rock.
So, after this RUU appears on the shipped-roms, I download it, rename it to PB99IMG.zip and put it on my SD?
Yep, just remove everything except the PB99IMG from the file name
I don't recommend using this ROM for that purpose. I just flashed 2.29.405.2 with my goldcard and now I am stuck with a phone which cannot be rooted by unrevoked.
looks like HTC has patched the ROM to stop unrevoked from working.
I also tried fake flash to see if I can restore back. but no luck there either.
if you want a Foyo 2.2 PB99IMG file, I recommend you use 2.10.405.2 instead.
I rooted my phone on 2.29.405.2 first time, as I have with any other verison. You're doing something wrong

Hmmm.. must be the stupid computer. it has been working slow.. I will try doing it on a different computer and see how I go.
I say it worked, I ended up with Amon RA on the phone and the SU apk in my app drawer
I say you are right EddyOS. I tried it again on a different computer and I was able to root it using unrevoked.
so my apologies!
It's all good mate

Guys just to clear up my concepts whenever i need to unroot.... all i need tot do is to put in the latest RUU file in zip form as mentioned in the thread and i will be back to stock froyo rom unrooted and ready to receieve OTA.... when gingerbread sense UI comes out?
i have the SLCD desire that came with factory installed Froyo and HBOOT 0.93 or 0.92 whichever it was
The ZIP I posted needs to be renamed PB99IMG.zip and copied to the SD card and then the phone turned on whilst holding power down - once in HBOOT it will then ask do you want to update and away you go
It will ONLY work on unbranded phones (those on x.xx.405.x ROMs out the box) unless you use a gold card

Just wanted to add that the Rom.zip is extracted from RUU.exe by running the RUU and checking the Temp folder. A folder appears there with weird chars starting with { and rom.zip is within it.
Hi folks,
Any idea why my "unbranded" htc desire will not update OTA for the new update:
ota_bravo_froyo_htc_wwe_2.29.405.5-2.29.405.2releasedauh16jhok5cmdm6.zip
I keep getting explanation mark in triangle with status error 7...
Try running this RUU with the phone connected to the PC, ensure USB debugging is enabled on your phone. Create a Gold Card if your are not sure whether your phone is unbranded or not.
If you receive any driver/USB associated errors when running the RUU, check that HTC Sync is installed, run as Administrator, and temporarily disable any AV software.
If you still have problems, then try the PB99IMG (rename the RUU to PB99IMG.zip and place to the root of your SD card, then flash via the Bootloader screen) method as it is a lot easier than the first method I mentioned. Just remember that if you were branded before you will need a Gold Card to allow this method to work.
If you do try the later method, remember to remove the PB99IMG.zip file from your SD card afterwards or else it will run if you ever go into recovery mode.
yep MasDroid, just a thing, the link you gave point 405.2 rom ^^
for 405.5 try this one instead => http://shipped-roms.com/download.php?category=android&model=Bravo&file=RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe
That's cool.. and I will probably use the RUU to update.
however does this mean I can't perform any future OTAs? What does status error 7 actually mean?
status error 7 mean a problem with the verification of the signature.
like when you try OTA with orange desire + HTC stock rom without gold card.
perhaps HTC work on the gold card back door?
anyway that's the crap if we no longer could make OTA with our unbranded desire...
I can't update my phone with OTA at all, just keeps coming back with error 7...
I have unbranded with stock HTC rom with a gold card! (as I used it to originally unbrand my phone).
feel lost...
@garpunkal
did you try to flash from your pc with the RUU from shipped-rom?
Try the PB99IMG method i posted above instead as you won't run into PC errors.
@tozneno thanks for the updated RUU link
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
you're welcome, Mas ^^
@tozneno I originally flashed my phone to unbrand to the 405.2 rom... now I have an OTA update and it fails with error 7... Do I now need to reflash to get this update?
You shouldn't HAVE to but it might be something HTC have changed to stop people using a gold card?? Who knows...
If you can download the file you could try and flash it manually
@MasDroid will the PB99IMG method wipe my phone? (reflash rather than update?)
Yes, PB99IMG method is the same as RUU, it will wipe the phone
EDIT: trying to find the OTA, going through HTCs servers, and it won't work so either the file name is wrong or they've pulled it
Yes, it will reflash the firmware.
It just a more efficient method than running the RUU, which can bring up all sorts of driver/usb errors.

@EddyOS tried flashing it manually... renaming it to update.zip and doing the bootloader stuff... no luck...
Sounds like a duff OTA file to me
@EddyOs @MasDroid if it wipes the phone, I might skip this until the next major update....
Rename to PB99IMG.zip

Don't know properly but let me try to answer,
u can only apply update.zip on recovery if they are signed by htc as its s-on and no one is still came with root for hboot 1.01.x its hardly locked so sign by htc for that update.zip is needed.
In simple, Not possible unless signed by htc...

talking about wildfire with S-ON here....
S-ON actually checks the update files whether they are signed by htc or not, and installs only the signed ones.
As ur hboot is 1.01 with S-ON, u must be on official froyo. In that case, u shouldn't be having another update file signed by htc presently. So u will be getting the error "Signature Verification Failed".
Why dont u try that as there is no harm in doing so. First copy ur update.zip file to the root of the sd card. then reboot into hboot menu and select recovery. U will see a red triangle. Now press the volume up + power key. There u will find the option to install update. So try it and check the error. And AFAIK, it is almost impossible to spoof the signature of htc.
If u have enough time, try this one also (only on ur wildfire with hboot 1.01 and S-ON). Get the official froyo ota update of ur region. It will be a zip file signed by htc. Put that zip file in the root of the memory card and rename the zip file to "update.zip" . Then go to recovery and try to install this. It will be installed because it is signed by htc (and moreover it is not a downgraded one).
Hi bharat, I am trying to do an OTA manually the version released last in India.
I got the following error, with "status 7". I was already having Froyo from an RUU update that I did, is that the reason for getting the error "Status 7"

Sorry, don't know about that "status 7" error.
Try to give more details and u might get answer frm someone. hboot version (0.80 or 1.01.0001 or 1.01.0002), S-ON or S-OFF (expecting s-on), Region of phone manufacture, Which froyo ruu u have used.
EDIT: Just googled the "status 7" error. Seems like it was the problem with rooted phone. So if ur phone is rooted, i think u will have to unroot ur phone first for the OTA update to work. And be aware of that OTA update will make ur phone unrootable (as now)
[im expecting u have used a rooted froyo rom (a zip file not an exe file)]
When I re up Rom ship, i see this error (attachment)
How to fix this error?
I download and flash rom RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed

thats for an unbranded phone
is yours branded? (or what version are you running at the moment? the x.x.405.x normally gives it away)
Create a goldcard:

Put this in your desire and then flash ruu again.

As stated above several times, that error is normally produced when trying to flash a stock ROM on an branded phone (without a goldcard).
To be on the safe side, create it again. By far the easiest method is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954723.
Simply create your goldcard, patch it to your memory card & run the RUU again.
The error i have posted on the post #1.

Run an official RUU install. Should be able to find one in the Dev forum. This should install a stock rom and bootloader. Just copy the RUU to your pc, run it, and connect your device. Follow the instructions.
Here's a link to official RUU Roms;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667
Can't verify the links, as anything that was uploaded to MultiUpload is no longer valid after the States shut them down a few months ago.
And sorry in advance, I don't know which one you should use Probably doesn't matter much anyhow, as a lot of them just contain radio updates and small bug fixes. Some of them are regional specific, so just choose one best suited for your region. If in doubt, WWE (world wide english)
You might need to flash Bravo Downgrader hboot from alpharev in the case that the RUU Roms cannot overwrite your existing HBoot.
i downgraded hboot using the attached file (put on root of sd card, rename to PB99IMG.zip, then reboot into bootloader and select yes when asked to apply update. then reboot phone) then run the official gingerbread update from the link:
