Hello all,
Before installing a custom ROM on my Desire jotted down on paper what version of the original RUU, but I lost the paper where this information was noted.
How do I know which version of the RUU to my Desire ????? Or I can use any RUU??
Thanks in advance
Find the RUU with your network name (may be more than one), and make sure you download the latest. If you are restoring because you need to "fix" your phone you can just use a WWE RUU, if you are restoring for warranty, and you can't find your RUU, just use the 2.3.3 RUU
Many many thanks bortak!

hi guys im trying to flash a stock ruu and cant quite get it working
ive tried everything (turning off internet connection,3 different updates of the ruu,flashing while phone is off...)
i have a telstra branded desire rooted running rcmix s v1.2
i have tried all 3 telstra ruus from htc site and get either unable to connect via usb or something like the wrong hboot.]ill try to find my goldcard but is there any other way i can unroot without a goldcard
as always help is appreciated
You have a branded desire right? I gather this from the fact, that you are talking about a goldcard, which you only need, if u want to remove a branding. With such a branded desire you cannot use a RUU by HTC. You need to use the RUU of your provider. Download the latest RUU (complete OTA-Update) from your provider's website and install it. This should work.
Did you try flashing true fastboot?
1. Boot up your phone in the bootloader.
2. Select fastboot.
3. Run the Telstra ruu
Thanks for the help everyone...i flashed a stock rom without apps2ds or data2we tried flashing again with phone on got half way through and had usb connectivity error so went into fastboot and did it from there and it worked.
made a goldcard for future use if i need to and went through the whole noobs guide to root and now have
rooted htc desire
s-off with alpharev...had trouble with this as well but thats in my other post and it worked fine
now reflashing rcmix s v1.1 and get my apps back.
thanks again everyone and moderator can remove this thread if needed
hi
doesn't rooting means installing any ROM i want??? i can't
i have also S-OFFed my device, but i can't install
i am from Kurdistan, Iraq and i have a desire came from UK, so i want to install the main arabic desire RUU
can you help a little please???
RUU's are not rom's, they are utilities that you can restore your phone to factory mode.
Every phone has their own RUU so if your phone is bought from UK it probably won't support arabic RUU, you can even brick it with wrong RUU.

Flash the latest radio, if you want arabic rom use InsertCoin but partition your sd first
And like the reaction above says RUU aren't roms, the are unrooting your phone, and wrong ruu means sometimes a bricked phone
I have rooted HTC Desire with ROM version 2.10.405. When I'm trying to update the latest RUU WWE ROM version 2.29.405 it shows me an error,
"Error 131: Customer ID Error".
If any one can help me out or tell me how to update latest HTC Sense ROM on my phone then please let me know.
you must unroot your phone
I have searched but didn't find proper procedure of unrooting, if you have any link for the same then pls share.
Thanks.

find your Froyo RUU and run it.
by the way, After running the Gingerbread RUU ,your Hboot will be upgraded to 1.02 ,which is not rootable at the moment.
what exactly are you trying to do?? in order to run a WWE RUU you need a goldcard (if you're branded).
I still don't get why you rooted and S-OFF'd just to run a RUU
As stated above, the CID error is a classic symptom of attempting to update without a goldcard (from a carrier branded phone).
You'll need to create a goldcard and patch your MMC, then run the desired RUU again.
Good Day to you all
I really can't find the answer to this, so here goes:
I have a HTC Desire with HTC Sense (GSM Version), and i would like to root the phone and install the Cyanogenmod 7 ROM; but here is the thing i am unsure which stock rom to download as none seem to match mine:
Baseband Version: 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
Build Number: 2.14.207.3
The closest ROM i have found is this: RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27_release.
But if I install the above ROM if something goes wrong will it brick my phone? And if so were can I download a stock ROM that would be suitable for my phone?
I have searched for ages attempting to find a suitable ROM but have been unsuccessful.
Your help would greatly be appreciated.
Many, Many Thanks

When you have an unbranded device, you can flash the named ruu. When you a branded device, you have two options:
- create goldcard and flash ruu
- flash the ruu from your provider

Hi
Thanks for the reply.
The problem is there does not seem to be a rru from my provider? i am with O2 Manx Telecom, this is why i would like to know if the rru i have found will do as stock?
The only ruu for o2 for froyo I could find is this one:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_144166_signed.exe
But this one is older than your current version. So create goldcard with goldcardtool (google for it) and flash stock ruu.
As long as you did not apply the gingerbread ruu, flashing a ruu won't brick your phone.
Thanks very much Man
I will give it a go tonight.

Hi;
Is it possible to install an Arabic stock ROM on HTC Wildfire S Europe (different RUUs)?
What should I do to install ROM of a software number on a phone with different software number?
I searched the threads but I lost in tutorials and couldn't find an answer.

Yes you can....... If you want to use an RUU you should have a locked bootloader an should have stock recovery
A better way is to just run the RUU till the first screen, close it, go to the temp folder (type "%temp%" in "Run" in the start menu) and search for a "Rom.zip", rename it to "PG76IMG.ZIP" and put in on the SD card and boot into the bootloader and flash it....... You will need a locked bootloader for this as well
But I read somewhere that if I want to flash a stock ROM with RUU the software numbers should be same.
for example can I install RUU_Marvel_HTC_ARA_1.47.415.1_R3_Radio_47.10b.35.3030H_7.47.36.10M_release_196164_signed.exe on a wildfire s with 2.26.401.3 software number by simply executing that file on my PC?
I have a wildfire S from the Middle East and I have flashed a European Ruu without any problems......the only thing that matters is that the variant is same(GSM or CDMA)
But there is various topics are saying you can't install a stock ROM on a phone with different CID version. You need to first s-off and change CID or use Goldcard.
I went for goldcard but it seems that the site which generates goldcard image is down.
What else I can do?
I need to install RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_ARA_2.26.415.2_Radio_47.23e.35.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_262618_signed_2 on a wildfire s with 2.26.401.3 software number which is Europe.
Is there any complete tutorial? This phone isn't mine so I don't want to try uncertain way.
