You can try superonklick to gain shell root, and then try to perm root

Any news here? I'm totally frustrated, want to root the DHD but with this version it seems impossible...

Can you tell us how? Because this software version seems to have patched the exploit used to gain root.
I tried to do it using zergRush exploit and it did not work.
same here...
Any way to downgrade to sense 2.1?

I have the same issue. I could not find any ROM that really made me want to root my DHD until the ICS, but I just accepted the OTA for 2.3.5 few weeks ago.
Did anybody try this?

"Works on HTC DESIRE HD 2.3.5 - OTA UPDATE3.12.405.1 THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Got the same problem over here. I had an unbranded phone but my 3.5mm jack was corrupted (i guess just dirty or some wear on the pins) so they replaced my entire motherboard.
Guess what, they installed this vodafone-branded ROM and now im stuck with this stupid device only for a corrupted jack slot.
3.13.161.3? i dont know this base which country?
Vodafone has put it on my DHD this afternoon after a repair. Its a dutch store but maybe its vodafone-widely spreaded and then i guess its in germany too. I dont know other countries they use this ROM.
But im gonna hope the guys there will put an unbranded ROM on it. Or else it won't be a happy year for them.
Htc supertool worked for me!
I'm on 3.12.405.1 (also Sense3) .. but my phone was already Ship S-off first (from trying CM7 back in june).
Now it's time for ARHD or RCMix3d - yiiiipeeedeee!
doesn't work with 3.13.161.3, has anybody some more ideas?

Hi Fellow Xda-ers,
I am new here and have been browsing thr forums for a few weeks, and its this place that made me get the dhd.
Any who i got the handset two days ago, Its on contract, Locked to Orange Uk, Running Android 2.3.3 with a software number of: 2.37.61.11.
Now i have been looking around the forums and scratching my head for ages trying to find out if i am able to:
1.) Root
2.) DownGrade
3.) Flash custom roms.
Any advise is appreciated,
Thanks.
I'm sorry pal, build 2.37 can't downgrade yet, so you can't root. Our fellow modders are working on a workaround with no success yet.

Yes. If you are married or have a partner spend the time with them now because when they work out the fix for 2.37 you will only have eyes for your DHD
Lmao true true. So no nodding what so ever ? Lol

gratz enjoy ur phone as we should be able to enjoy it i've been soo happy with mine since I unlocked/changed room
Hi. I ve dhd. It's s-off with build number 2.37 running gingerbread 2.3.3. So my question can I downgrade without having to temproot first cuz its s-off..
Desperately waiting for ur answer
Im afraid not, if you are on contract do what i did, Call your provider tell them its stuck in a bootloop due to a failed ota rom update, and they will replace the phone for you, well maybe, Orange UK did, i called in 7.30pm and received the phone next morning.
Then that way you "may" get a phone that has not been updated, the replacement i got was on 2.1 :0)
Hi all,
I follow the instructions in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1152233 from CuBz90
But still not working in Desire HD with builed number 2.42.415.1
I try many times but I unfortunately failed..
Please help..
it wont work with 2.42...........
downgrading 2.42 is not yet found.........
we must hav to wait........
Thanks man i just wanted to know if it will work on my 2.42.... .
Hello,
I think it should works. This is using the Goldcard method. The goldcard is a general method which should not be dependent on the phone version !
With goldcard you can install other OFFICIAL stock roms.
In the field of Android custom ROMs, what a Gold Card does is letting you install ROMs on your Android device that aren’t intended for your carrier. For example, if you have a T-Mobile USA HTC Desire, you can install an official ROM intended for the O2 UK HTC Desire, or even a generic ROM that isn’t locked to a carrier. It does so by disabling the CID (Carrier ID) check that the device does when installing a ROM.

i think its about the software version,couldn't go back without temp root,and as long as we couldnt found a 2.42.415.1 or later rom with root bug like 2.37 softbank rom ,we couldn't reach any where

Using the goldcard doesn't need any root permissions. It is a htc way to use other official stock roms. First you try to downgrade to official stock rom 1.32.405.6 then try to root this version.

The waiting answer is not enough for me and the others , unless some one tell us if they works on it to figure out how to solve the root issue
thanks to all members in this forum specially the supportive peoples who give us that hope.
Am Still waiting since along time.. for a hope
i agree with you ,knowing someone is working on it is good and hopefull.

don't know... but do giv it a try !!!
otherwise u can go for ARHD 6.3.1 ... it uses 2.3.5 and sense 3.0 .. and is exactly same as the official rom ... with some performance enhancements ... GUI is the same ...
The official update to sense 3.0 has patches to remove root so if you want to keep root, don't update

Yes i lost root anytime i went back to stock.
thanks guys, thats what i thought too, just wanted confirmation.
i love this site sooooo much, never been let down, xda NUMBER ONE SITE!
since I posted I ended up going stock 2.3.3 during the temp root process I ended up some how having a permanent root no joke. Even after a battery pull I still had root. Not sure how it worked or what I did but strange! I have witnesses to vouch.
hi, i jus wanted to know the pros and cons of rooting my device and more importantly whether i might be able to recieve the ICS OTA update .thanks vvery much..
Rooting allows you to use your device to its full functionality with the risk of allowing you to damage it.
You can use custom ROMs which are greatly enhanced compared to stock ROMs. You can also overclock/undervolt your device, use apps like titanium backup and proxy droid which require root access, have access to system files etc.
The worst thing that can happen is that you brick your device but if you are cautious you can avoid this. Most mods come with guides so if you follow them and just do a little reading before attempting anything you should be fine.
You can probably receive the ICS OTA update but AFAIK HTC will only be rolling it out from the end of May, starting with Europe.
The best you can do
I was getting bored with the stock sense rom, then i rooted my Desire HD and installed several great roms (right now i'm using MIUI ICS) and I'm in love with my phone again.
Doing that reminded me why i bought an android and not an iPhone.
Just be careful, follow all the instructions and you'll be good.
Thanks to all of u for ur support. Can anyone please provide me a link or show me how to root and flash custom rom on my DHD running android 2.3.5. Thanks again

Hi,
My phone is routed to IceColdSandwitch with Android 4.0.4, but I do not like it and I want to go back to Android 2.3.
I am using ACE PVT END S-OFF for the flashing process. I downloaded 2 ROMs
but both of them do not work:
RUU_Bravo_TMO_UK_1.21.110.4_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.0 6.00.02_2_release_127570_signed.exe
(Thought this should be for the HTC Desire HD on T-mobile UK but did not work)
and I also downloaded from the official HTC Desire HD page the ROM-Upgrade HTC Media Link ROM Update for HTC Desire HD (1.11.0.0)
Here I got the following error message: MOdel ID incorrect, Update Fail!
Anyone an idea what is going wrong? Could anyone point me out which is the right ROM to use for this phone?
Many thanks!

Whatever is easier, I am sure this is the unrooted version, so I would be happy

Buddy, the BRAVO is the HTC Desire not the Desire HD...that is why the update is failing....you have to find a RUU for your phone...the code version for your device is ACE as is for the Inspire 4G. If you are S-OFF, then find a custom rom u like, flash it and once your phone is working, then look for a RUU suitable for your phone...
