Hello,
I was wondering if anyone can help me with the following problem.
I have a HTC Desire from a friend of mine. He has a HBOOT 0.80 version. But the phone is S-ON
Now i want to S-OFF the phone and to install 4EXT custom recovery. The problem is that Alpharev needs a higher version of the HBOOT in order to do that.
What is the best way to upgrade the HBOOT from the desire to a newer 0.92.x. version?
The phone is rooted already and has a clockwork custom recovery installed.
Possible
You can use the official Gingerbread RUU. After the Update had done, you can S-Off with Revolutionary --> http://revolutionary.io/
But please move it to "Desire Q&A"

You'd be safer off to use a 2.2 RUU instead of the 2.3 one.
I have the same problem of "Possible", same same.
I tried to update the HBOOT via the official HTCdev page with file:
PB9920000_Bravo_Froyo_hboot_1.03.0003_R.exe
without success becouse the update utility give me the maessage:
Please upgrade to 2.29.405.14 to apply this RUU to be able to unlock your bootloader.
So I tried to install an original RUU with file:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8_Radio_32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed.exe (Android 2.2)
withou any success, an error displayed at the end of process.
I tried another RUU with file:
RUU_HTC Desire Android 2.3 Upgrade (Gingerbread).exe (Android 2.3)
withou any success, an error displayed at the end of process.
Now I am stak!
I'd want update HBOOT from 0.80 to higher in order to run revolutionary procedure (to have S-OFF), in order to install 4EXT recovery but it seems impossible.
Any idea?
Thanks

That ROM isn't Bootloader/HBOOT 0.80.
This ROM is HBOOT 0.80:

This ROM isn't for HBOOT 0.80 either, I have goldcard and my Desire only ever lets me unroot to the Virgin RUU Rom.
This one worked for me with HBOOT 0.80
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_T2_Radio_32.41.00.32U_4.08.00.09_release_137222_signed.exe
Same problem for myself, this is what worked for me on Bootloader 0.80:
1) Using goldcard in the phone.
2) Run this RUU
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe
3) Plug phone in when prompted on the RUU.
4) Done...
I spent 3 days trying to get this to work, used countless different RUU which gave me the 130 error, in the end this was the one that worked for me. Hope you have the same success...
Exactly, as GCQ, just 2 days of nightmare. I managed to flash some ROMs, but they kept restarting the device every 10 minutes ) The same happened even after FroYo update without goldcard and not wiped system (I'd say not having the goldcard was the issue)

This does not work with 0.80 HBOOT ! ! !
There is no RUU for the 0.80 Bootloader Version.
Your HBOOT is irrelevant. You can only flash an RUU that has an equal or higher software number. So if you're on 1.21.405.2 you cannot flash 1.19.x.
done it, using this RUU :

Hi there
i have Hboot 0.80 And I want to S-OFF my phone!
alpharevx for HBOOT 1.01
what do i do?
Thanks all
It took me ages but probably because I took the long way round.
I think I formatted my SD card and made as gold card, then used the RUU tool in the Arabic RUU thread below this one.
That worked for me after a day of trial and error. I guess there is a quicker way. Search the forums I know alot of rooting guides have popped up since Alpha-Rev release.

Just go to Unrevoked.com, download their app and S-OFF+ROOT+Recovery install on your phone. HBOOT 0.80 is rootable, because it's the old version. You don't need Alpharev X.

It will not give S-OFF. Just a Custom Recovery and root. If you want S-OFF, you will have to go for AlphaRev X.

Thanks a lot
I'll download the froyo RUU and then write my result here.

try that it works for me...just select the applicable RUU to your region then your S-OFF!!!
I got HBOOT 1.02 after running RUU but when I run alpharevx it still got s-off.
Don't forget to install and uninstall HTC Sync so you won't encounter driver issues.
Then when your already s-off follow the instructions on the link below then that's it you got full control!!!

i tried almost all RUUs..dosent work...i get error 171 cn u pls tell me wht is wrong?
im on hboot .80 nd wnt to upgrade
I've done a lot of reading and see where Alpharev has a hboot downgrader but does this work with CDMA version BravoC?
I rooted using Revolutionary after having hboot 1.06 for a USCC Desire. Phone is out of standard warranty but I need to send phone in for repair under extended warranty. When I flash 2.2 RUU it cannot roll back hboot version.
Thanks!
I still haven't found anything. Thanks for the help.
what was your original Hboot number?
see alpharev page, if your model is supported try this -
flash HBOOT bravo_downgrader and right after that run appropriate RUU wich contains default hboot to protect extended warranty
as a result of this process you become S-ON again with stock Hboot
i think this may work even for CDMA version but i am not 100% sure
google it and you will find the answer
Here is about GSM Desire...
Actually I just use revolutionary to s-off my phone and it work. I test several new ROMs right now, then I try to flash stock ROM back when found this thread. I can flash the RUU HTC Froyo successfully. but...
the hboot is not overwritten. it still revolutionary. I am very sure the stock ROM I use contain hboot. because I can see it upgrade my hboot from 0.8.000 to 0.93.0001 during I flash this ROM before I s-off it yesterday.
revolutionary claim that we can get the original hboot if we flash stock ROM that contain hboot but it not working for me. maybe you need to tell them about this.

[8]STILL S-OFF AFTER RUU
"I want to return my phone for warranty, I used a RUU but I'm still S-OFF"
Cause:
- Alpharev's Hboots are write protected, so that they can not be overwritten by a RUU
HOW TO S-ON
METHOD 1#
[STEP1]- Visit Alpharev and download the "Downgrader"
[STEP2]- Flash the downgrader over fastboot. This can be done with Android Flasher, cmd, or fastboot commander (Note: android flasher is the only program that does not require third party software such as Android SDK or Java JDK)
[STEP3]- You should now notice the title on the bootloader screen is "Alpharev Unlock", run the RUU again and you will have S-ON'd your device.
#METHOD 2#
[STEP1]- Instead of running the RUU again, and putting your phone at risk once more, you can simply upgrade just the bootloader manually, with the PB99IMG.zip method.
[PHASE1]- we need to extract rom.zip from the RUU.
[P1/STEP1]- Run the RUU (BUT DO NOT PLUG IN YOUR PHONE OR CONTINUE), move it to the side as it cannot be minimised.
[P1/STEP2]- go to start menu, and use the "run" feature. Type in %temp%
[P1/STEP3]- select "date modified" to "today" (to make it easier to find). There are should now be 2 folders with long names of random characters.
[P1/STEP4]- search the folders for rom.zip and extract it to the desktop.
[P1/STEP5]- delete everything EXCEPT "hboot_8x50_0.93.0001_20100810.nb0" and "android-info.txt"
[P1/STEP6]- rename the zip to PB99IMG.zip (make sure it is not PB99IMG.zip.zip)
[PHASE2]- now we need to update the bootloader
[P2/STEP1]- put the file in the ROOT of your sd-card (not in any file or folder) and boot into bootloader (poweroff, hold VOLUME DOWN and POWER). After a few seconds, you will be prompted to update bootloader. Select Yes. DO NOT INTERRUPT THE PROCESS, OR YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE.
[P2/STEP2]- Once the process is finished, you will now be S-ON.

Hi XDA.
I guess I'm new to rooting. I'm not sure how to root my Wildfire.
I have:
HBOOT 1.01.0002
Android 2.2.1
S-ON
My computer:
Linux Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal)
I've thought about unrEVOked, but I've heard that doesn't support 2.2.1 yet
And Revolutionary doesn't support HBOOT 1.01.0002.
Any ideas?
PS. Soft root is OK, and so is shell root (are those the same things? )
Downgrade to HBoot 1.01.0001 and then use Revolutionary/

I can't because to do it I need to execute a .bat file, which is only for the Windows OS, and I have Linux Ubuntu 11.04. But I could probably get access to a Windows XP machine, if that helps.
It should. Since this is a one time procedure only. Revolutionary itself has a program for Linux.
Or, try and get hold of an older version of AlphaRev X / Revolutionary (This seems unlikely though), as the older versions had partial support for HBoot 1.01.0002 which seems is totally removed in the new version.
So basically I need to downgrade from a carrier-based HBOOT (1.01.0002) to an unbranded WWE HBOOT version (1.01.0001)? Then I can use Revolutionary to root and get S-OFF?
Yes, that's about it.
And how do I flash a custom ROM? Can I do this on 2.2.1? I'd really like CyanogenMod 7 for the Wildfire . WOuld you reccomend it?
Yes, I would. I have been using it personally since its launch, and am very happy with it.
Firstly, you will have to get a Custom Recovery like Clockworkmod. The easiest way is to get this via Revolutionary itself. When it S-OFF's your device, it asks you whether you want to download and install a Custom Recovery Image or not. Select Yes, it will install Clockworkmod Recovery.
Once Clockworkmod is installed, you will have to follow this post to flash a Custom ROM:

I want to update my HTC Desire (AMOLED) with the current hboot of 0.75.
For revolutionary I need a hboot of 0.93. So, what's the best way to do it? I can't find a good tutorial. Can I simply download the hboot image from anywhere and flash it via CWM 2.x?
Is the current ROM safe or have I to reinstall it?
Thanks!

Use alpharev and follow the instructions there.
It is recommended that you return to rooted stock ROM before you S-OFF but it is not essential (I didn't).

Most roms wont work. Its certainly safest and best practice.
Thanks for reply!
Today I installed a prerooted stock froyo rom, but Alpharev won't work. Here's the error.
Is there another simple way to update the hboot to 0.93 so I can use revolutionary?
I believe you can flash the official Gingerbread rom found on HTCdev site. This will upgrade your rom to Gingerbread as well as your hboot. Then use revolutionary to s-off.

I'm still paranoid about that piece of crap. Please don't, just use a stock 2.2 RUU, anyone you want if you have a goldcard (preferably 2.2)
you can try alpharev
