Radio-3.35.20.10
Gives me a list of the Following
Fastboot
Recovery
Clear Storage
Sim Lock
What is this about?
this is the bootloader, or hboot. nothing you need worry about unless you want to dive into the world of custom roms
You need to S-off in order to root phone & install custom Rom.

The older Hboot's didn't require unlocking. Just boot to recovery & flash a ROM.

Hi all:
What is SHIP that in the bootloader?
and do u guys advice to transfer it to ENG bootloader?
many thanks
Stock bootloader is called ethier ship S-ON or ship S-OFF. Anyway you don't need to transfer it to and ENG bootloader as ENG gives ability to flash in bootloader.

thanks for the reply
so the ENG bootloader will give me the ability to flash new bootloaders ! nice and I heard it gives more commands for the adb is that right?
It gives you fastboot commands.
Not sure if this has been asked before.....
However, I would like to know if you can flash extra zip files like boot animations over a custom rom. I am running HiApk sense 2.1/3.0 ROM and everytime I try to flash something else it installs it and then when I reboot my phone nothing happens!!!?!!??! Is it possible to do this?
Thanks in advance

Bootanimations are zip file but u dont flash them. U have to use root explorer or simular and put the bootanimation.zip in "data/local" or "system/media" then set permissions to rw-r--r--
Looks like this
[x][x][_]
[x][_][_]
[x][_][_]
x = checked
Then reboot
Just make sure and check the exact location & permissions of ur original bootanimation then replace it with the new 1

To s-off is better tho coz then u have pretty much full control of ur phone.

Turn off the phone then hold in the volume down button + power and that will take u too bootloader menu and tell us what it says.
Bravo PVT ?

Lol PVT 1? 4?
Anyway u can use revolutionary to s-off. Very straight forward and easy. U have to setup ur computer to "speak" with ur phone. Install HTC Sync then uninstall Sync only, leaving the HTC Drivers installed then u have to install the fasboot/hboot driver.

Look here and have a good read, all links to drivers and things ul need there. Just ask if u get stuck

Hi,
I am a new to XDA Developers and I only registered because I have a problem with my HTC Wildfire (Buzz). I need to downgrade my hBoot so I can unlock the bootloader. I didn't know about the bootloader having to be unlocked so I used Revolutionary. I had hboot 1.01.1001 at the time and it was a successfull root. I tried to boot to Clockworkmod Recovery to install Cyanogenmod 7.2.0 when a HTC phone picture came up with a red triangle with a '!' inside it. The specs of the phone are as follows:
Android OS: 2.1 (Eclair) (I downgraded from 2.2.1 recently)
hBoot:
-Revolutionary-

Why do you need to use HTCDev?? By doing that you void any chance of your warranty.
You need to flash a recovery.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Assuming recovery is named recovery.img and it is placed in your fastboot folder.

I tried using ROM manager but as I said the picture comes up. What fastboot folder and recovery.img?

You need a fastboot folder and need to install the HBOOT drivers. See the first few steps of my rooting guide.

I got it now. I had to use the fastboot flash command with an older recovery image. I am now using Cyanogenmod 7.2.0. Thanks guys
