EDIT SOLVED
EDIT: I've tried following in few days..
1. Revolutionary
2. htcsupertoolv2..going to try v3 today
3. HTCDEV.com.. unlock bootloader...it says I need to upgade my hboot by checking for the updates in settings.about phone.software updates..... I did but no update was there... BTW i'm already on 2.3.3GB
4. adb is again and again saying errors...
BUT my phone is working well with stock GB2.3.3
Here is the thread where I posted the Camera Problem
one more thing.. HTC sync is not recognizing the phone..now,,but revolutionary and htcsupertool is recognizing
Please take a look and if possible guide me....
: I rooted my desire 3 months ago....
: A month back my phone got USB Brick..while I was using 4ext recovery.....Before I was using CWM2.5
: I did USB unbrick and installed RMD recovery.........
: All was good untill I reinstalled 4ext recovery touch for Flashing Runnymede AiO with touch installer which was necessary for touch drivers..
: Then a few days back I got USB brick again and this time it was worse... my phone was not getting wake from sleep everytime after putting sleep..
: It gone worse time by time and my desire stopped functioning properly ...means it was not booting
: after no. of trials of booting...I finally got it booted with MildWild and revolution3.0..but it was taking approximate 10mins on every reboot
: runnymede was not booting still
: After 1 day it was all good..I don't know how..but I reinstalled RMD recovery..may be that's why
After all this... when I thought everything is OK I suddenly got a new and BIG problem..
My desire's Flashlight and Proximity sensor was not working(Still not working)..and 5MP camera is at 800ISO is taking images worse then a normal VGA camera...(Still
same)
To Check weather it is the software or hardware problem .. I did S-ON...by 1. Downgrading hboot followed by flashing the htc desire Ginger Bread 2.3.3 update(I updated my desire when the
update was launched too...after upgrading to 2.3.3 I rooted my desire by revolutionary pre0.4)
Now I am S-ON and The problem of Senso, flashlight, camera is still there... I think It is a Hardware Problem which can only be solved by taking my phone to HTC
service Center...Which I don't want to because they will take my phone for weeks...and I can live with a bad camera.. as I don't take pictures usually...
And I want to S-OFF again..
So here is what I did step by step..
1. Updated HTC sync
2. Connected my phone
3. Checked for recognization
4. Uninstalled HTC sync
5. Disconnected and then connected desire with USB
6. Started revolutionay pre0.4
7. It says device found ..enter beta key
8. I entered beta key...accepeted
9. It says thank you for participating
10. That's it... I waited for 10mins...Nothing Happened
11. I retried the process fom step 1 to 8
12. Now it says the same but...also
13. In second line says..."zerging root....please wait"
14. Then I waited again for half an hour....
15. Nothing Happened..
16. But when I disconnected my device..it said "conncetion to the device interrupted unexpectedly"
17. Then I thought it may take more then half an hour....
18. I retried for approx 45mins...
19. Same happened..
20. I asked many people for the problem....one of them suggested your name..
21. I am writing this to you hoping a Solution..
Thanks in advance for reading this long problem

you need to have a goldcard and if you don't care about warranty use WWE RUU 2.29.405, I'm using that to restore any problems... then when you are on 0.93 hboot use good old alpharev way

I purchased my Desire back in June and as soon as i found out about rooting
i used the one click unrevoked 3 method. Due to it being unbranded i didnt need a gold card i simply did so. After which i had problems installing some roms and its become too difficult so ive decided to unroot it and use it as it was meant to be until i gain more knowledge.
My problem is no matter which RUU i use following the unlocker method nothing works. I continue to get the error that none of the RUUs are suitable for my phone.
I have looked through the other posts but couldnt find an answer that worked for me.

Hi,
Is your Hboot 0.93 ?
try this RUU : http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_142828_signed.exe
Enter bootloader (vol.dw+power), then plug the phone to USB and run the RUU it should work...
Have u installed HTC Sync again after using unrevoked?
U need the htc drivers installed
Have u tried LeeDroid?
Running stable and fast in my Desire, I rooted nd unrooted the phone twice, but every time i go back to unroot status i get bored, so root again, i think u should try another ROM first before unroot, try mine : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768703
Download de ROM,
Install thru ROM Manager or directly thru Recovery, but remember to Wipe data before u install make a clean install, if u still experience any issues go back to Stock...
My Hboot is 0.93.0001
Ill try the RUU tomorrow when i have enough time at my disposal
Although ill try leedroid first just in case. Hopefully it works and is good enough
thanks for the help
Just curious, but did it work?

Check it. Use the gingerbreak method. It works.
http://driphter.com/index.php?topic=3867.0
I had accidentally tried 2.37 via the pd98img and everything was locked up, so I wanted to get back to 2.36 but the RUU no longer would work. Im suprised my steps & toolkit still worked considering people are saying that the last version of gingerbreak didnt work. Well it still did for me (and a few other users) and NO goldcard was needed.
It doesn't work for me
At step 1. Download and Run this RUU to downgrade your device (plug in, run it, and let it do its magic): I got a failure (-> picture).
In Englisch: failure 140: Bootloader-Version-Failure
The ROM Update Utility Programm can't update the Android-Phone.
You need the right one and try again.
But which one is right? I tried more than ten ...
Again: I have (telekom)-branded Gingerbrad 2.37.111.6. No root an S-ON
help me please
thanks
greez Fabi
which RUU are you using are you using?
try skipping the RUU part of it, and just start at step 2 with the gingerbreak method.
Are you saying that Gingerbreak method in your post works on an S-ON 2.37 phones?
I wasn't able to make gingerbreak work either. My phone also lagged and FC with most widgets, won't connect to the mobile and wireless network. I thought I broke something by having radio s-off. But fortunately after Factory reset and wipe cache. everything went smoothly. Trouble is I have to setup my DHD again. ontly thing I was able to successfully restore was the contacts. using the built-in export tool.

I tried the SAME .exe from another page...
So start at step 2 with gingerbreak: (in Charge mode?!)
At step 4 my phone doesn't install Gingerbreak from PC - so I copied the apk to my device, run it but nothing happens. It sags only: Rooting...; Running exploit...; This may take a few minutes! Device will reboot on success.
Now I'm waiting more than a half an hour! What's wrong?
FAbi
So why not upgrade? I mean does anyone know how to create FOTA updates? Coz maybe we can trick the phone to update to 1.32 but maybe change the numbers to 2.38 or something like that.

allright..
I tried rooting my sister's Wildfire today and I've been trying for hours with no luck..
I followed Turkeys' Ultimate Guide to Root Wildfire EXACTLY as stated (I am not a total noob since I managed to do almost exactly the same procedure with my Desire WITHOUT ANY FAILURE..) but this little smartphone seems to outsmart me here.. >_<
first the specs:
hboot is 001 at the end
it's a A3333 Wildfire
already debranded
running stock Android 2.2.1
software version 2.22.405.1
I managed to install the modified usb drivers through hboot, all went exactly as planned, rebooted the PC, did everything by the books...
then I started unrevoked and it
boots into hboot
then reboots
then reboots again and says "waiting for root - safe to restart...)
after the phone is booted up it is lagging as hell
but does nothing if I wait
when I restart the phone unrevoked tells me "couldn't get root - happens sometimes - try again"
and I tried like 20 times but I can't get it to work..
can please anyone help me?
thank you guys so much for any help..
peace
EDIT (!!!)
ok, I get it.. I'm stupid for not reading through this.. I just got so frustrated with it not working..
anyways, I'm gonna try to S-Off this thing.. is there any way to install a ROM - IF I succeed with S-Off - from there?
EDIT 2 (!!!)
yeeeeeesssssss! FINALLY at least SOME progress..
S-Off now (which seemed far too easy but it is off..
so, now what? is there any way to get to root from this or a ROM?
thanks for any advise..

I'm having a problem after rooting via unrevoked my cellphone stuck/stop working while recording video i have flashed Insertcoin's 2.1 A2SD 1.1.3 ROM last time i rooted via revolutionary.io n inserted the same rom, that time video recording was workin' fine, what do u guys think?what went wrong?
Why did you root your phone two times?
Try another rom to preclude it's the rom.
OH yeah have another problem when i lower my desire's brightness to almost 0% black colors on my screen turns to be as purple color :/ what kinda problem is this?
If you answer my questions / try my suggestion, I will answer your second question.

First thing i rooted using revolutionary tools at the first place flashed sum roms then finally found insertcoin 2.1 a2sd it was working fine.
Second i used RUU to revert back to the stock rom n all that coz i wanted to give my cell to sum one else.
Third i didnt gave my cell so decided to root again but i couldnt as my cell (still) was S-OFF n my H-BOOT version was updated so i couldnt root it again using revolutionary,there was no clockworkmod as well,no SuperUser then i tried to install CWM through SD card it didnt help too.after 3 hours of search n trouble n experimentation i decided to root it again
Thats y i decided to root my cell via Unrevoked
Okay, now try another rom.
Dude the thing is i used the same rom both times n yeah most probably changing the rom will help but i want this rom
bump bump bump
Okay!!! the thing is i've flashed a new rom n the problem persists
Flash gingerbread RUU, use revolutionary.io and flash the rom you want again. Further and detailed information can be found in bortaks guide.
1st do i have to unroot before flashing gingerbread RUU?coz last tym i didnt unrooted my device before flashin RUU n i had many troubles such as CWM wasnt installed nor superuser while Security was off.
2nd my hboot version is updated n the updated (hboot version) is not available in revolutionary.io
3rd i'd really appreciate if u post links here (gingerbread RUU n bortaks guide)
n thx alot for ur tym mate
If you flash RUU, you will loose S-OFF, root and recovery. Furthermore, your hboot will be updated to 1.02.0001 (GSM Desire). This hboot version is supported by revolutionary.io.
Just to be sure: You have a GSM desire right?
yup its GSM
Okay, so you can do what I told you.

Man can u share the RUU's link what u want me to flash???
Talking about this ruu?
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...Bravo&file=HTC_Desire_Android_2.3_Upgrade.zip
Should be, but I recommend to take the one from htcdev.com:
http://www.htcdev.com/process/legal_download/152
Man my ruu is stuck at 72% (updating system) its been 25 mins now what should i do now?
okay the thing is i've used another ruu n my current hboot version is 6.93.1002 where on the other side revolutionary.io only supports 0.93.0001 n 1.02.0001 :/
Cancel process, flash hboot_downgrader from alpharev-website, then run RUU again.
Unrevoked 3 program gets stuck at "Waiting for root...”
I have been trying to root my device for last 3 days .I have done enough research and gone through various forms .
Following the guide ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145035 ) successfully got my device S-OFF using Revolutionary .
In step 2 : according to guide downloaded and tried
“RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.2_R_Radio_13.45.55.24_3 .35.15.31_release_130814_signed_2”
Got stucked with non-working touchscreen.
Again downloaded and tried “RUU_Buzz_Froyo_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.24.707.1_Radio_13.5 5.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_161113_signed”
Now touchscreen is working but it is showing android 2.2.1 again .So what's the point of downgrading ?
Run Unrevoked and it is unable to gaining root.
It shows :
Running preboot seq….
Waiting for reboot…..
Running root…
Waiting for root…..( I have waited for 20 mints but it keeps saying this)
[ USB debugging is enabled
Usb drivers are installed
Android Bootloader Interface is listed under Android Phone. ]
After all this mind boggling i have reached here :
Android 2.2.1
Revolutionary
BUZZ PVT SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.01.1002
MI CROP-0622
RADIO 3.35.20.10
Should I use different version of unrevoked ? 3.31 ? here..( http://theunlockr.com/2010/09/20/how...evoked-method/ )
But again in guide “androidybloidy” says in step 3 :”Download the test version of unrevoked (here). Let me repeat, DO NOT USE UNREVOKED 3.32 as it will lead to CID errors or to be precise this error
"Validation error, backup CID is missing".”
What to do now ? Do I need to downgrade to 2.1 éclair to use revoked ? Do I need to download Éclair RUU for India ? If “yes” where can I get the download link ? Some forums say I don’t need to if I have already got S-OFF.I am totally lost.
Now I feel like tearing my hair out.
Any ideas ? How can get around it?
Any help would be appreciated.Thanks in advance.
I wanted to try the method suggested by “3xeno” on #83
http://joel5121.blogspot.com/2011/06...-tutorial.html
but under “clockwork recovery” the link to “fastboot tool “ redirects to http://htcdev.com/ and there is no tool like “fastboot tool” on that page.Again the download link to “recovery for wildfire”in step 4 is broken.
What should I do ?
Should I follow this ? : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1130044
Is there a way out ?
feel like throwing my HTC out the window:confused:
SOLVED
Finally installed ClockworkMod recovery and Rooted the device.
are you trying to put a custom rom on the phone or just root it? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12188132&postcount=15 follow this guide to put a custom recovery on it, follow method 2.
now, if your going to flash a custom rom just do this from your new recovery and your new rom will have been pre rooted. (well, it should be ) if not then im pretty sure that there is a flashable superuser zip that will give you root once you`ve s-offed but i cant remember where i saw it but i think tht would be youe best bet without having to downgrade again.
how did you make it work cause im having the same problem
yeah if you said its working how did you make it work :was it using the non-test version or did u try something else
If you want to de-brand (downgrade Hboot from 1.01.0002 to 1.01.0001), root or flash I have a comprehensive guide to do that
It's in my sig
Hey dude,
