[Q] Flash back the original rom

I'm using oxygen 2.1.6 with hboot oxygen r2, s-off & rooted.
If i want to flash back to original rom with boot sound enabled, what should i do first?
Because i'm planning to sell my desire.
Could someone give me to original rom link & suggest one?
I see there are many versions. Thanks. Good day.

Is your phone a branded one?
If not, use the latest WWE RUU from fastboot.
Get it here.
Also, because you are using the never alpharev HBOOTs, you need to download their DOWNGRADER first from alpharev.nl
This file: Bravo Downgrader
So Step 1 : Flash Downgrader
Step 2: Flash RUU from fastboot.

Thanks for your reply. My phone is unbranded.
Any command to flash the RUU from fastboot? Coz' i never done before
After flashed this RUU, does the phone become S-ON & Unrooted?
I'm planning to flash hboot bravo stock 250|40|147 and flash Froyo Rom which quite similar to stock one. Leave it rooted & s-off. Any idea which ROM? Thanks.

Nothing. Download the .exe file then boot your phone into fastboot, plug USB and run the RUU from your PC.
It is recommended to flash the DOWNGRADER, not the alpharev stock, because there is a possibility, you will still have S-OFF if you don't flash the downgrader.
So, if you want it unrooted and S-ON: then the Downgrader from alpharev must be flashed.
Well if you want to leave it S-OFF & Rooted - then I'd suggest:
Leedroid 2.5.
Alternatively : Rooted Stock

again, thanks +1

How to get S-on if you on S-off?

Best xda members,,
i was on 2.3.3 Officele rom Gingerbread Dev.
soo i did get the S-off ,
but my question now is...
How do i get that S-on?

if you dont change Hboot you need to run official RUU again and you will become S-on again,
if you change your Hboot you need to flash downgrader from alpharev web site and after that run official RUU to become S.on

Hboot versions by alpharev with the number 6.93.1002 are protected against overwriting by ruu or ota. You have to flash downgrader and then stock hboot first before you can flash an ruu.

Is there a tutorial for flashing a hboot downgrader and a custom hboot?
Thanks!

I used the original names from alpharev website. Do not forget to check md5sum before flashing!

i found it !
First rename the Bravo downgrader.zip to PB99IMG run it in HBOOT MODE, not recovry mode, aply the update, than you hboot will chance to '' ... 9999 '' , after that i had a RUU ZIPFILE, rename that also to PB99IMG run in HBOOT mode and you're done, yoo i learn this as wel!,

Questions:
After i get 999 hboot, i rename the ruu file like ruu_bravo.... .exe to PB99.ZIP?
Thanks!

No. You have to either extract the ruu from the rom (guide can be found by using the search) or download the appropriate ruu as a PB99IMG.exe and rename this into PB99IMG.zip.

RUU . zip Chance to the name to PB99IMG.(

How i got back to the 0.93.0001:
1. I have downloaded the downgrader from alpharev - bravo_downgrade.img.
2. Downloaded fastboot coomader.
3. Restart phone into fastboot.
4. Start fastboot commander, loaded bravo_downgrade.img and flashed it.
5. Restart bootloader (from phone).
6. Got the 6.93.999 hboot.
7. Restart the phone, activate debugging mode and conect the phone with charge only.
8. Downloaded the ruu (for my phone) from shipped roms.
9. Flash the RUU from windows and now the RUU can rewrite the bootloader - so now i have 0.93.0001 hboot.
Thank you all and alpharev and unrevocked (revolutionary)!

[Q] Remove s-off desire (Need to send to service)

Hi,
I am s-off woth cm r2 table using Oxygen.
I flashed the stock hboot table and then the RUU.
The process went perfect and it installed the RUU. But when I start the phone woth Vol dwn + power it still says AlphaRev S-off.
I then tried the new gingerbread RUU and it still the same but the HBOOT is the new one 1.02.0001.
Is there a way of removing S-OFF?
Best regards
Jejja80

Always the same kind of questions here
from http://alpharev.nl/ :
Downgrade protection, these HBOOTs cannot be overwritten by an OTA or RUU, unless you flash a downgrader HBOOT first.

Hboot question!?

I had alfa rev Bravo Stock hboot, but update to Bravo CM7 r2
How to back to Bravo Stock hboot?
May i download Bravo Stock hboot, rename it to PB99IMG.zip and upade current hboot?

1) Nandroid backup in recovery.
2) Verify the MD5SUM of the file you downloaded against the one in the table.
3) Flash HBOOT with your phone in fastboot mode (Back+POWER) -> 'fastboot flash hboot bravo_alphaspl.img' (change into the correct filename for the HBOOT you downloaded)
4) 'fastboot reboot-bootloader'
5) 'fastboot erase cache'
6) Boot recovery, wipe everything and restore

Can I do this:
You can also download the corresponding PB99IMG zipfile, put it on your sdcard, and rename it to PB99IMG.zip. Then start the phone in HBOOT mode (VolDown+POWER) to flash the HBOOT without a PC. It is however still necessary to either restore your nandroid, or reflash your ROM after doing this.

Think you'll need to fastboot flash the AlphaRev downgrade hboot as the newer hboots (CM R2, OxygenR2 etc) are downgrade protected.

You only need to use the downgrader when you want to return to factory S-ON. Otherwise, leave it alone.

I use this

Or to use one of the original CM/Oxygen partition tabs. My bad, didn't realise there was a protected stock alpharev tab (been a while since I use _thalamus custom tool these days)

I have BravoC, but in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1483919, will my BravoC brick if I flash with only CM7r2 or all Alpharev HBOOTS? Some of Custom GSM's Rom have CDMA patch and I want to try it savely.

hboots are for GSM devices only
if you want to install a custom rom like this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1403113
you need to use cmtd to change your partitions like an hboot will do for a GSM device
follow these instructions:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/23984-guide-to-installing-cmtd/
after rebooting recovery flash the rom followed by the CDMA patch and GAPPS
then flash the boot-cMTD.zip
reboot
hopefully you found one with a patch that actually works

HTC Desire -- can't go to Hboot

Hello! I have the strangest problem, and wondered if someone could help.
I received a present from a friend, a second-hand HTC Desire GSM, but it didn't have stock Android and was running on a custom ROM installed on the SDCard. I wanted to install CyanogenMod on the phone itself (not the SD Card) and tried to with the phone by reading up details online. This is my first time with an Android phone, and I'm not sure what I did, but now I'm unable to boot into Hboot recovery.
I think the problem began when I installed the file "RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121865" from a certain website, and ever since I can't seem to flash the phone with another RUU. Can someone please help me make the phone usable again? I'll post the details below based on what I could find as of recent:
AlphaRev Oxygen r2
Bravo PVT1 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.93.1882
M1CROP-831D
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27

You are SOFF.
Follow these steps in sequence
1. Get the stock hboot from alpharev.nl and flash it from fastboot
2. Get the 2.3 RUU from htcdev and run it from PC with phone connected with USB
3. Flash the 4ext recovery from fastboot.
4. Flash any custom rooted rom from recovery

Please stop telling people to flash stock hboot over every other custom hboot, cause most of the time thet will succed but eventualy someone will end up with hboot brick. It is recommended to flash downgrade hboot prior flashing any other.
In his case he doesn't need to run RUU, he is s-off so all he needs is a different hboot (oxygen has a lack of space on system partition), 4ext img from Jmcclue's thread that can both be flashed via fastboot and then a personal choice of rom.

I dont recall telling people to flash stock hboot before this. I had noticed that he has got a oxygen r2 hboot. It is perfectly safe to flash the alpharev stock hboot over this. I would only use the downgrader to remove write protection from my hboot so that when I run the RUU I get SON.
The OP also stated that he is not sure what he has done so I would run the 2.3 RUU just so that he can work from known territory.

hes S-OFF with no recovery and has CM rom on sdcard soo like nloooo says flash recovery and then he can flash the rom on sdcard after a full wipe (if it fits on Oxygen r2 hboot) or change hboots and flash new rom if he wants
