You're not nearly there, you've got a radio brick. Best you can do is send it to HTC.

[Q] I cant install WWE 2.29 to Vodafone Turkey 2.31 because of Error [140]

Hello,
I have a Desire with 2.31.184.3 version in Turkey but i dont have market application. I want to instal wwe rom without root (because of warranty) for market, but it fails..
I tried 3 way for installing.(First of all i made a gold card...)
1)RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe
when i try to setup, it fails and gives an error massage (Error [140] Bootloader etc). Than i tried with opening bootscreen ("Vol down"+"power") than click .exe file, it gave the same error ([140])
2)PB99IMG_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.zip
I changed its name into PB99IMG.zip then copied into SD card than shut down my desire and opened with bootscreen ("Vol down"+"power"). It tried to instal PB99IMG.zip but it fails. There was an error message which is "Main version is older!"
3 and the last) PB99IMG_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.zip
I changed its name into update.zip. I went in bootscreen and press recovery. when phone reset i saw a /!\ massage than i pressed "Vol up"+"Power* than opened recovery screen. Than i selected "Apply sdcard:update.zip", it gave one more fail
-- Install from sd card...
Finding update package...
Opening updade package...
Verifying update package...
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
I cant solve my problem help me please i want to install any android 2.2 WWE rom for market.
I have no idea about your problem but i was thinking of you for not rooting my desire for warranty, today i changed my mind and i rooted my device because of market and slowness. you are right vodafone stock rom sucks slow, no market, annoying if u change ur mind try oxygen gingerbread rom and applanet is working now maybe u don't need to root ur device.i'm from turkey also
Aren't there any solution?
You need a gold card to flash a ROM different to your version

i have gold card.. when try without gold card it gives error [131].
OK...you're on 2.31.184.3, which is for your operator (Vodafone Turkey). To flash any other version, in this case the generic 2.29.405.5 WWE version, you need a gold card.
However, as you're on a newer version than 2.29.405.5 you're probably going to need to downgrade first. Follow this guide to go back to 1.21.405.2:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256
Once done, you can then flash the 2.29.405.5 RUU over it (with your gold card, of course) and you should then be on 2.29.405.5.
Bare in mind you probably won't be able to update OTA going by the last update
Thanks for this guide but it needs root. if i root my phone, its warranty will be gone. so i need a solution without root. (if there is)
Thanks a lot i read wrong it doesnt need root. im going to try it=)
There isn't one, unless the RUU for your current version turns up
Thank you a lot!! it worked=)

Thanks
You didn't go to alpharev.nl They have a HBOOT Downgrader that would allow you to flash the 2.3 update, You are now going backwards, flashing RUUs for AMOLED instead of SLCD
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Just flashed RUU 2.3.3 from HTCdev, it works !
if ur desire is dead and didnot open again
by any way not open
go to HTC AND tell them u did factory reset and that happend they will change it for u
Your Desire is not dead, its just not up yet. If like me, you keep getting 131 error when trying to put a stock rom on,"I did the same as you, tried to put stock rom on a cm7 hboot" then try the upgrade to 2.3.3 Gingerbread RUU from HTC. worked for me. then I unrooted by the revolutionary method.

Hey Guys,
Links are not working Can someone help me to downgrade my phone from 3.12.405.1???
What exactly are you trying to do - downgrade so that you can root your phone? Did you try the AAHK?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1259821
(Make sure you read the manual. )
Hi guys,
Same problem, tried AAHK myself, it won't work, on recovery it goes to a screen with a phone icon, and a red triangle.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Any ideas?

[Q] RUU USB Error

I've been trying to update my HOX using the RUU but I keep getting error 170, I've got the latest WORKING USB drivers install(4.0.0.009 doesn't install) but for some reason I'm continuously getting the error, can someone tell me which USB connection type to use and what other settings I should apply and what should be disabled
Thanks
Edit: I've solved my first error but now I'm getting Error 159 which states that I'm using the wrong ROM Image to update my phone, but I'm not because my current firmware version is 2.17.401.2 and the RUU updates to 3.14.401.27, any help would be appereciated
Thanks
hi ,
you need to update your hboot to vers 1.36
read this thread.....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543604&page=268
you can read ClydeB1 instructions etc .post 2671 and next post 2672..etc etc
i also tried with only the RUU but failed,also said wrong ROM , after reading up on above thread and following advise given !!!
i download the hboot firmware zip file ( link given in thread by ClydeB1( few pages back ) and flashed it to upgrade hboot and then ran Ruu .straight afterwards ,(all done from pc using" commands
,as given in relevant thread,)
plse note....As i understood it you can't flash upgraded hboot and boot into ics and then try to flash Ruu ,it wont work.!(While in fastboot on phone you run Ruu straight afterwards .)
The firmware zip for hboot update, is placed in adb folder on pc and flashed with easy commands (copy and paste if you want to..!!)
...you just have to put phone debug mode ,and in fastboot (power and vol down )and usb connect to pc.
it took me about 20 min ? i am on 4.1 now !
smooth and no problems ..but you have to read up and understand,then whole process is very, very easy.. and quick!!
(my phone is not rooted or unlocked )
good luck
Would I need an Unlocked bootloader or need to be rooted to use this method or can my phone be completely stock and untouched?
Edit: Also where could I get hboot 1.36
Edit: I figured it out, thanks a lot for the help
