You can't root on 2.2.1 without S-OFF (to have S-OFF U must have a root). We must wait for solution.

[Q] How to root HTC desire HD ver 2.3.3... ? NEED HELP.. !!

Hii guys..
I am new to this forum.
I need to root my HTC DESIRE HD (gingerbread), with s/w number 2.37.720.3.
But I have learnt from many other sites and other threads in this forum that
Desire HD must be downgraded first.
There are ways to downgrade for s/w number 2.36.XX.X, but couldn't find any for 2.37.
Hope some one kind enough could help me out.
Thanks in advance guys..
Regards,
K.Sagar.

I am afraid you are stuck without root my friend, you cannot temp root 2.37 with gingerbreak and hence downgrade is impossible at present. I guess you will have to wait for HTC to open their bootloaders and then flash a custom rom with root in it.
When HTC will open DHD bootloader... only time will tell.

Thanks for the info dude..

hmm that's not a pleasant news...If I knew that I'd never go for gingerbread update. I do get htc sense error frequently. That's really annoying. so any way I'm positive that the xda pro will come up with solution.
Cheers

Hmm, I reckon someone will figure this out.
Soon, I hope!

Hope you guys at XDA will figure it out... Please find out a solution...
Thank you guys in advance..
Really awaiting a solution..

Yups, guess we all would like to know when HTC opens it's DHD bootloader ...

So did any1 find a way to root 2.37.720.3??? I m pissed with tjis stock rom...vry unstable...wifi conntection drops...no update in india ((

Hi All,
Just wondering if there is already a way to root 2.37, I can't seem to find any update on this.

Link was given 4 posts back?? Or use ACE Hack Kit on the forum.

Thanks, another question I have 2.37.707.4 is this considered a branded phone?

I would love to root my DHD but I have no space memory cards or anything and I am a bit of a dumb blonde too but I guess I will just have to leave it with what I got

Go get yourself a SD card and use the method posted above

1. Downgrade

[Q] HTC desire original ROM

Hi.
As a noob that I am, I didn't backup my ROM, and now would like to restore it.
I've tried several, and tired several option but none work.
Can anyone help me restore the original ROM?
Best regards
Ricardo Carvalho

You have to provide some info! Which network, country, SLCD or Amoled?

Download an ruu then run it.
Swyped...

I tried going back to stock RUU (waranty return) and the program would never run till I removed the windows hboot driver.
After that I was back to stock in a matter of minutes.

need htc desire original rom
Hi ALL,
Is any one help me to get original rru for htc desire.....

Try this thread to find your original ROM. You have to give more info, though; there are stock ROMs for all around the world, and you might have a hard time pinpointing your exact RUU.

i had the same problem, solved it a bit complicated:
i first made the official update to gingerbread (from carrier) and then made the downgrade to 1.34...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178912
for perm root i used the wiki guide

Thank you for the information.
It worked.
First upgrade to 2.3.5 and then use the tut to downgrade to 2.2 build 1.34.
Second used the tutorial to root compleet and putting superuser on mob.
Third i flashed clockmod on the mob.

Guide

I also read many guides and took parts from many and posted everything on my blog so that it'll be easy for ppl new to rooting..(i had a hardtime looking through different sites..phew..) you check my blog at www.desirez.strawmetal.com
