Loading custom ROM on 3UK desire

Hello Guys,
I am an android nOob who is really stuck I have read so many different forums I am still not sure what step I am missing out, if you have the time could someone give me a step by step guide please. I have a 3UK desire software No 1.22.771.1. this is branded and locked to three. I have made the gold card and also rooted using unrevoked but instead of using clockworkmod I have used recovery-RA-desire-v1.7.0.1-R5.img, rooting has worked as I have superuser permissions this is where I am now stuck what is the next move I have tried using gernic HTC RUU to de-brand so the software version is 1.21 instead of 1.22 but this always fails stating wrong RUU I have hit the wall boys I dont know what the next step is I would like to use Leedroid's ROM on my desire.
Any help please I would be very grateful.

I think you can just flash a custom firmware. Won't the RUU updates remove root access etc?
Phil

Don't know Phil this is where I am stuck I don't know what the next step is!!

I am now running 2.2 I was making it much harder then what it was!!

So long as you are routed I would download Rom manager from market and then use that to download a Rom and flash with a full wipe, so simple real it is
Good luck
Oh check out miui Rom if you real want to be impressed

Hi there, I've got the exact same software version, 1.22.771.1, have already rooted using unrevoked, if I just load a custom rom now is it likely to work? My desire is 3 branded but I've unlocked it and am using a Vodafone SIM.
Thanks,

nope you won't loose any data or apps.
it just updates the system itself.
but the update should tell you that
is your phone branded?

[Q] HTC Desire 2.3.3

HI
So been searching for info on this, and other forums for about 2 days but came up with nothing on my device so hopefully i did a good job.
First of im Swedish so sorry for my bad english.
So my device:
HTC Desire 2.3.3
Flashed with HTC RUU from there site.
Not roted
As far as i know its not branded
Norwegian carrier
My problem:
The problems only showed after the upgrade to 2.3.3 and is:
1. When i listen to music on speakers i can change the volume perfectly but when i connect my headphones or handsfree my volume is stuck at one level.
I already tried to change the volume from settings, from different music players and tried a hard reset using power on and volume down.
Nothing seems to fix it.
2. My phone goes into car mode often. Mostly when i plug in my charger but sometimes when its in my pocket. I already downloaded the app from market thats supposed to "fix" it but it didn't do much differens.
I tried hard reset but the problem is still there.
3. I tried to root my phone so i could reflash it with another rom but read on another forum that its not possible at the moment using 2.3.3. Tried gingerbreak and unrevoked 3 but with no success. So in my desperation and irritation over the problem i re-downloaded the HTC 2.3.3 update to try and reflash the phone but i got an error message stating that i needed the correct rom for my phone. Kind of strange imo because thats the one i downloaded and successfully used the first time.
So the solutions i already tried are:
Different headphones
apps to combat the car mode
Hard reset using power on and volume down.
Any ideas?

Thomas,
Short answer is that you can't root if you applied the HTC RUU, at least not yet (plenty of forums threads on XDA discuss this). This means you are stuck with that ROM for now.
I don't see your bugs on the rooted version of the HTC gingerbread ROM, so can't reproduce them.

Yes i know it cant root it, just showing what solutions i tried so far =)
And now im all out of ideas =(

you can root solution came out a few days ago

Hi again and thank you for replying
Im sorry i get them two mixed up. But i tried revolutionary on my windows computer but dont remember what happend, error codes, other messages etc, all i know is it didn't work because i still wasent rooted. Thats when i tried unrevoked after. Iv tried alot of stuff using my windows machin but its not hooked up right now and im mostly only using my macbook.
But my main concern is not rooting atm, but the volume and car mode. I work in IKEA Logistiks and we work night hours so were listening to music while we work. Its a pain not being abel to adjust the volume =/

Dude im so sorry. I surfed a bit more on there page and remembered that i had problems with invalid beta code and i tried the solution, copy past, but still no luck getting the program to run.
Thats what happend. But giving it another so il post what happend in a while!
Sorry again and thanks!

Problem solved =)
Got S-off with revolutionary after borrowing a friends computer so something wrong with my windows machine maybe.
But reflashed it with Cyanogen mod and its working like a charm =)
No more car mode and i can change the volume. Strange bug i must have received before with the update from HTC 2.3.3.
Thanks for the help, its friday so beer on me! =)

[Q] Root DHD

Hey guys,
After many attemps trying to root my lovely DHD, I'm here to ask you one question.
I've read the manual a couple of time but there's nothing to do : There is always something not working with the advanced ace hack kit.
Everything is fine untill it says "failed" for the "sending update" process.
Could anyone tell me where is the problem?
(Enclosed : a copy of what it says).
Thank you!

Try a different sd card. And resolve any USB driver issues. It's best to disable all USB devices while running kit.

Could the SD card really be the problem?
I'm giving it a try, thank's!
Edit : Nothing changed! I'm giving a try with another PC tommorow

I just tried with another PC, another SD card and another usb port, nothing worked... :/. Any idea?

which version are you running? As aahk can't root Desire HD running android 2.3.5 sence 3.0 program version 3.13.161.3. Only 3.12.405.1 and lower is supported.

Yes the sd card can be an issue. Usually it will get stuck on info signature checking with a bad sd though. It does sound like you may be trying to root the new dhd 3.0 update which can't be rooted yet.

No no, I'm not so stupid, I'm trying to root the GINGERBREAD (2.3.3) version... I just can't understand what's going wrong...

Ok. Then using a different pc will probably be your best bet.

What do you exactly do when trying to root? Do you follow the instructions exactly? You need to do all steps in the effen manual

Have you tried a different cable? Something is going wrong and i didn't hear you mention using a different cable. Also this may seem obvious but gonna ask anyway. Have you checked to see if you are already s off?

Hello,
I rooted the DHD of my girlfriend yesterday (using the ACE HAck 171211) and everything runs perfectly.
But now we wanted to upgrade via the official OTA update (Update to 2.3.5 and Sense 3.0) and it won't update. The DHD reboots, starts to update the system and within 1-2 seceonds it stops the update and show a Warning sign.
The DHD still works with the old System (after removing the battery).
Has anyone an idea ??
PS: I still try to get her to use ARHD 6.3.1

Once rooted you can not do factory updates. It relies on the stock recovery to install. You would have to unroot and then install ota but you wouldnt be able to root from the update until the hack kit supports the new version. You should just look for a rooted form of the new ota.

no update for dhd

Hello guys
My friends DHD had mainboard changed (warranty) but now he is not able to receive even gingerbread update. so the guy has to stick with Froyo for now. He does not want to get root just the the regular updates
At software menu it says that phone is up to date haha
Any suggestions?
is it possible to force an update? (if it is not getting gingerbread so I doubt that he gets ICS later on)
Regards

To be honest I'd root it...do it for him if he's worried about it...his main boards been changed neways lol so I doubt begging else will happen..there's loads of benefits to rooting her neway

What is your friends firmware version? Not android version, but the HTC Firmware.
Should look something like. x.xx.xxx.x - e.g. 1.32.405.6

Software version 2.50.405.2
Kernel 2.6.35.10
Baseband 12.54.60.25U_24.09.04.11
Hope will do any help
Anyhow the question is if (even phone is rooted) it is possible to apply updates without changing ROM?
I have rooted my phone and already tried a bunch of ROMs (currently using Revolution HD 6.3.1) but thats not for my friend. As she wants to have regular HTC rom and get updated version of software.
thanks again

If your looking for a fairly clean rom try leedroids he only works with official releases...there's a list in the Dec section of purely stock Roms bit just rooted I'd go there..If its a lady I'd try the bliss Roms they were designed for the woman apparently lol
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App

thanks arknailed7754 for your post
though my main question still remains if it is possible to force update to original rom. (rooting is not a problem)
regards

Froyo was 2.2..gingerbread started at 2.3 so he's over the original release..I think you can apply the update through adb..with an official ruu. I'm not as knowledgeable as some on here but that's how you can push the phone to the new update..the official are also in Dec section..there's probably a guide in there if you need help applying,surprised he can update though HTC released the official sense 3.0 etc last year q4.
As I said I might be talking out of my ass but go to Do a search in Google with your keywords its in there..
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App

If your unrooted & don't want root, just want to update to the latest firmware then download the RUU in this post -->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22871910&postcount=33
Before you run it, make sure you've got HTC Sync installed (for the USB drivers).
Your current firmware is a WWE x.xx.405.x and matches that of the update posted 3.12.405.1. You should update with no issues. It will however wipe your device, so make sure you backup what you can before you run the RUU.

Thanks for your help.
Will try as soon as get my hends on friends phone.
Will post results.
Thanks again

I had the same problem with my DHD. Whenever I connected to WiFi, I never got the update. What I did was when I connected my DHD to PC, I selected "Internet Passthrough". And voila, I got a message a few minutes later that an update to Gingerbread is available. Try this and I hope this will resolve the problem.
