When I try to use the offical rom, it always stops on " updating signature"( this is my translation, I don't know what the orignal english sentence), what's the problem? Anyone has any idea about that? thank you!

You'l need to give us more information than that I'm afraid.
What are you running at the moment and where do you get that message and EXACTLY what have you done to get to that step.
Oh, and you'd best post these is the Q & A forum, but I'm sure some obliging admin will move this for you.....

You need to downgrade to 1.32.405.6 first but first you also need to be rooted eng s-off radio s-off and supercid your phone is locked to Orange so you can't put stock Rom on till you have the above

Thank you very much, but I still want to ask if what you said is a must for upgrade and downgrade or just a must for downgrade?
Normally i would move this to Q&A, but I am a bit sad that it doesn't seem to work. You guys keep posting questions in development. So, I'm closing it.
Hi.
My Device:
HTC Desire PVT4 SLCD rooted, s-off
since my homebutton doesnt work anymore i wanted to make use of my warranty and send in the device. Problem is: it was t-mobile branded, so i had to s-off the device and use those custom installations (with the slcd installer and the OTA update i had to rename to update.zip. got the tutorial from a german site whose admin is known for helping with desire problems and stuff)
i follwed the instructions 1:1 but it somehow didnt work properly
Problem: My device is stuck on a certain screen and wont boot anything anymore.
The screen: HTC logo in the middle, triangles with ! in every corner
absolutely no reaction to any keypresses, the only thing that produces some kind of reaction is plugging and unplugging the usb cable, which gives me a screen similar to the bootloader screen that says:
--- AlphaRev ---
BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27
Aug 10 2010,17:52:18
RUU (the only "usable" option, though i cant use it. its in orange)
What do i do now?
My device is, as stated above a german t-mobile device.
ive googled for hours now but dont find anything particular (especially since there are so many different desires out there today and t-mobile doesnt seem to like people to get a hand on their newe RUUs, or do they?)
i found the austrian RUU on t-mobile.at though i read on some german sites that this wont work on my device (maybe brick it even more?)
on shipped-roms.com there is a UK t-mob RUU, though i dont know whether this is 2.2 (since 2.1 doesnt have SLCD drivers) so im not sure whether to flash this one either
Can i even use a RUU at this point?
if you need any information i maybe forgot, tell me and ill try to find out
thanks in advance
(cant provide links since i am a first time poster)

Install HTC Sync, download the RUU which most resembles your original RUU from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667.
Connect your phone via USB in fastboot, and run the RUU.exe you've downloaded. You should be fine.

yes it helps you
you can run a RUU now
just plug phone with usb cable to PC, boot into fastboot mode and execute the RUU.exe
it will go back to stock, you will lose root and custom recovery but at least it will boot up, so you can root again etc.

I think it is an UK ROM, so no German/Austrian one.
I found an thread in a German forum and they have linked an Austrian t-mobile RUU for Desire SLCD: http://www.t-mobile.at/servicedownloads4you/webnwalkmanager/HTC_Desire_Froyo_Update_RUU.zip
You need to unzip the file, don't flash the ZIP on your Desire!

thx a lot, someone on the german forums wrote something about the austrian rom not being compatible with german desires, so i flashed aforementioned UK RUU and it worked

Jerrol, here is a complete guide how to unroot the Desire:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=880268
It's easier than it seems ...
Short: After you flashed the stock Desire hboot (see here: http://alpharev.nl/) you can run the RUU via PC.
But don't try to install the RUU.zip via recovery. Just unzip it an run the .exe.
Cheers

Are you on the Bravo Stock Hboot already? If not, I suggest to flash Bravo Stock Hboot via fastbot not via PB99IMG - it is just saver.
Anyway, following the guide to unroot your Desire should be the best way to succeed

Hi.
You don't need to flash any HBOOTS or HBOOT donwngrader. Since you are S-ON you can't even do this, so exclude it from your steps and continue.
It can be a conflict with your HBOOT version if the RUU you are trying to run is too old and has a smaller HBOOT version (e.g. 0.80), and it won't install properly.
I always recommend to use the latest RUU available WWE 2.29.405.5, but this is at your discretion to choose. Also make sure your phone wasn't branded, or you'll going to need a Gold Card to install the RUU.
L.E.:

You need a Goldcard, yes. You have a branded phone. Only unbranded don't need it.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=880268 Post 2 point 4 ff.:
4. Do I need a Goldcard?
If you have a recent version of the RUU for your Device, available on Shipped Roms, you dont need a goldcard. This is the usual scenario for people who purchased their Desire in Europe, and so have an unbranded Desire. All Branded Desires need a correct branded version of the RUU, and any other RUU including WWE (Worldwide English, or European) RUU will not work for them. Also if an unbranded Desire user wishes to change RUU to a branded version, he will need a Goldcard. This is because all Desires have a particular software tag in the Rom, called the InfoCID. This dictates the Region code. For Eg. An Indian Desire is branded and has InfoCID of HTC__038. When you change a RUU to different region, what you actually do is reset the InfoCID setting. Changing the InfoCID setting requires a Goldcard.
5. What is a Goldcard?
It is a normal MicroUSB card specially prepared in such a way that its Sector 0 (which normally doesnt hold anything useful) is modified, so that it signals to the HTC RUU that the InfoCID may be changed.
6. How do I create a Goldcard?
Just download this tool (Credits and All Rights by [email protected]), and run it.
7. Can you tell me more about Goldcards?
Sure. I've already posted it for you. Read the FAQs in this thread.

Hi you should make sure that the version ain't lower than what you have on your phone ( the version is 2.12.110.4 ), or, as I said, there will be a HBOOT conflict (if the HBOOT is lower).
Anyway I think you can give it a try without the Gold Card, since this is T-Mobile RUU, it should work, although it is recommended you make a gold card. There are lot's of threads on how to do this even without the phone.
Nothing bad will happen, besides the fact that it won't work and give you an error.

Hey everyone,
Appologies if this has already been asked.
I've searched the forums but couldn't really find an answer to this...
I currently have a rooted Wildfire which is running CyanogenMod 7 Nightly 177.
It has HBOOT 0.80.xxxxxx and I want to get it S-OFF.
Why? Because I want to play around a little with the default partition sizes.
Does anyone know how to get S-OFF for HBOOT 0.80.xxxx?
Could someone provide me with a link to a solution?
Many thanks in advance!
You can't. It was the first thing I tried when Alpharev X was released and was greeted by "Your device is not supported at this time" error. It has to be 1.01.0001
Alright, then another thing:
How do I update HBOOT to version 1.01.0001 in order to get S-OFF working?
Flash an RUU with HBoot 1.01.0001. One such RUU is Froyo WWE 2.24.405.1 available at Shipped ROMs.
Thanx for helping 3xeno!
But could you provide me with a link to download it?
I've been searching on shipped-roms but can't find the version you mentioned?
Not to sure about the other ones... :S
It's 2.22.405.1. WTF, I wrote the wrong code above. Sorry about it. :/
Please avoid 2.24, it will probably give you 1.01.0002
Alright, found it. But it's a .exe file.
Can I flash this in the same way that we flash .zip files?
No, Connect your Wildfire to your PC and run the EXE file. The rest of the process is automated. It will probably help more if you flash this Safe Flash RUU first:

Hi to all!
Few days ago, HTC released the unlock bootloader tool for HTC Desire also (and for other smartphone) HTCdev - Unlock Bootloader. So I tryed to follow the guide. The first step is intended to upgrade the HBOOT, so I have to connect the device to the computer, to download a RUU from a list on my computer and to execute it. But when my device automatically reboot (this is the procedure) I get and error that says "model id error"! (I have a MIUI Rom)
I write from Italy so I downloaded HTC Europe RUU (my device is not branded). Which one I have to try?
Is there anyone that tryed this procedure? Anyone can help me?

So, I just tryed a new RUU from htcdev. They have upgraded the HTC EU one, but I get an error that says that I need to upgrade the ROM to 2.29.405.14.
I think that it's impossibile for me because I have a MIUI ROM, right?
Anyone tested it?
If you're bent on trying the unlocker, the first thing to do is unroot. Keep your goldcard ready, and run the RUU. After unrooting with whatever RUU you chose, select the same RUU from their choice (this is a tentative advice).
Word of caution: They're saying Hboot upgrade required. If that's true, be warned that you will never be able to run an Alpharev/Revolutionary S-off until they update their method to include this.
