I don't think it's because of having root access but if you really want you have to use the RUU. Get it from here. It should come pre-installed with FroYo.

There might be a problem mounting your SD card. Try a different one and see if that works.

I need help on reverting my Desire HD back to stock.
For this I understand I need to flash stock ROM (RUU). In this case I need to flash RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.720.5 which is the Indian version for DHD.
However, I am unable to find this RUU.
When installing a custom rom after having rooted my phone I did take a backup using rom manager. So I do have a backup of Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.720.5 which I can restore ... but I will still have root.
Question: Is there a way to remove root after I restore the backup and also remove ClockworkMod's recovery?
If the above is possible I can then update my phone to the latest firmware from HTC which I guess is 1.84.720.3.
Please help..
There's an unroot option in visinonary.

Yes there is... will try that and what about ClockworkMod's recovery? will that affect the OTA update that I try to apply after I use the unroot option?

Shouldn't do, I once tried something similar and everything was okay? The OTA's installed as they should. The problem is the RRU you require hasn't actually been released which is a shame as I would expect Shipped-Roms to have a copy.

This is not the first time... I had a similar problem with HTC Hero, the Indian(Airtel base) rom was never released for download and when rooting the first time I did not take a backup of the original rom coz of which I was unable to update using the OTA.
So you saying I should go ahead with the unroot process and the OTA can then be applied? I really want to do this since I am flashing my phone every alternate day with a new rom released at XDA.. either 2.2.1 or 2.3.. need to stop doing that .. atleast for a few months till HTC releases a stable 2.3 sense rom for DHD.

vickyclewis.. thanks for the direct file download... will check it out once out of office.
Also the steps mentioned for flashing this.... I found the below in one of your post:
=====================================================
PD98IMG's cannot be flashed via CWM Recovery. Rename the zip to "PD98IMG.zip" and place in the root of your SD card (not in any folder).
Turn off your phone, disable HTC Fastboot if it's enabled, and power on holding Volume Down. This should start the Bootloader and it should read the PD98IMG.zip and flash it for you.
=====================================================
I guess you need to mention that the user has to get to the bootloader to install this...
Thanks once again..

Do you know how to boot into recovery? If your on stock recovery and whoever unrooted your phone did not wipe data and cache it could give you issues.
K here we go,
I've got an HTC One V. ( not the best choice ever I know but it will do for now). Thing is that it has been rooted and I now have a clockworkmod Recovery version 5.8.3.1. Today I got a message saying that there was a system update for my Phone. 2.22.401.1 of 34.55 MB. When I try to install it, it boots into ClockworkMod Recovery. I think I know where the OTA should be: /cache or /partition/cache But I can't find either of them in recovery nor just with filemanager. What am I doing wrong or what should I do?
tnx in advance Maverick ®

Firstly will like to say hi to everyone here since this is my first post and a new user to android!
I have read several threads and all mentioned to have stock recovery to do the update. Doesn't work for me. This is my scenario:
I have a rooted stock rom with CWM. I have flashed the stock recovery and also downloaded root keeper to able to restore my root after performing the OTA. After flashing the stock and backing up of root, I proceeded on to download the OTA update and install it. When the phone starts to reboot, indeed it boot up into the stock recovery for the update. However it just stops around 25% showing a notification icon instead.
I am a developer and an occasional hacker.. I am pretty new to android mods. Greatly appreciate if anyone could shed some light on how I can troubleshoot this issue.. Any logs? any debugging level I can look at to see what went wrong at 25%?
and by the way, i am holding on to a HTC One X
Thanks in advanced!
It stop at 25% or at any time because it cannot find a file it needs to patch.
Only a clean stock ROM should be able to complete an OTA update.

Mine is from a rooted stock rom. I have flashed to a stock recovery before downloading the ota from the device itself. So I consider that an original ota file downloaded?

i know i`m rooted but the main problem is the radio, its causing heavy loss of speed over wifi network so i`m asking for the root on stock 2.2.1 wherein wifi works perfect and if i am not wrong its the radio downgrade that used to happen during the actual rooting process of downgrading the O.S. after S-OFF`ing the device so i also mentioned about the radio onto my actual post.
Ah, okay, to root stock firmwares you need to download a superuser.zip.

Download the recovery from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?398dklf1uzss5f6
Put it on the root of your SD card (not in any folders)
Boot the phone into the bootloader
Allow the update
Turn phone off and remove SD card
Boot into the recovery
If you did all this correct, you should now have CWM recovery installed.

Do u mean to do this when on android 2.2.1?
Yes, boot into the OS and put the file on your SD card, then boot back into the bootloader.
Also once you have got a stock rom rooted download this https://play.google.com/store/apps/...utm_medium=organic&utm_term=busybox+installer and install busybox as some root apps won't work without it....

Just flash supersu through your custom recovery (which I'm assuming you have since you s-off'd. If you don't have one, let me know and I'll tell you how to get one.
