hi!!!and welcome!
i recommend to you that read about it in the ANDROID DEVELOPMENT FORUM in this order you can find it in the XDA BROWSER, okay?
1-how to DOWNGRADE and root my dhd...
2-how to do a RADIO S-OFF, ENG OFF,& SUPERCID
3-How to flash a new recovery (clockworkmod)CWM
4-in this step you must to select a rom for flash into your phone
but this is soo personal thing..every people wants different features and things of the different roms i recommend that you taste a lot... COREDROID LEEDROID, ANDROID REVOLUTION HD,MIUI, CYANOGENMOD7, are cool customized roms to try.
then... you can flash new kernel...new radio....
look at for this in "dhd radio thread" or diferent threads of kernels in android development forum.

2.2.1 means that you have "froyo android version" and 1.75 is the number of the build...
ready atention.. you must to downgrade since 1.75 to 1.32 for you can root your device...because your device is actualized via OTA since 2.2 to 2.2.1

for instructions on rooting your phone go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003

Now on 1.32, rooted, S-off and eng-off and supercid as well
just installed clockword also so now time to try a few roms

[Q] need help please

hi everybody,
i am new with android i have HTC desire HD when i got it it was 1 month old so it was installed CM7 but because i dont like devices with non original software so i ask someone expert to instal for me the original rom with HTC sense the one which come from factory with desire HD(i know that CM7 maybe is better version and includes new features but i like HTC sense...)
so now i have in software information
android version 2.3.3
HTC sense version 2.1
is that the right one or no??
and if yes is it the latest version from HTC for desire HD (of course i mean the officiel rom) because if i go to settings/software updates/check now it says: there are no updates for your phone.
do i can upgrade my htc sense to the newer version than the one i have? i know that sense 3.0 is not officiel for DHD so are there earlier versions which can be installed on my device or if the sense 3.0 is good can i installed too??
thanks a lot for your help and thanks a lot for the people working day and night to make this forum helpful for us.

Title of the thread should be relationated with your question..
sent from my amstrad cpc powered by LOL (premium app)

Mmm well i'm sure about there's some videos for do it and also guides... Now i'm not in my house i cant provide link...maybe later ,
But i'm deducing,because u have cm 7,that you have your phone already rooted and with CWM recovery installed true? If not browse for "HOW TO ROOT HTC DESIRE HDX" in the xda browser and read it... Its the firt step

sorry but i am completly new with this things so i dont know what that means rooted and how to do all this things so i need help step by step if you dont mind thank you very much really

okay... the first step that u need to learn and do its
1- if your current version of android its upper than 1.32xx u need to do DOWNGRADE
2-then u need to do ROOT for obtain superuser permissions for total acces to your handset (like any Linux OS)
3-install the CLOCKWORK MOD recovery
4-do RADIO S-OFF & ENG S-OFF + SUPERCID (CID 1111111)if u want to flash any baseband, or another rom diferent of your carrier etc... this step it´s needed..
this 4 steps are in this thread... read and familiarizate with the concepts before flashing....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841076

[Q] How do I root my DHD? (2.50.45.2)

Hey, I´ve used the search tool, but couldn´t find anything.
I would like to Root my HTC Desire HD, so I can Install the new Android Revolution 6.x (Android 2.3.5 with Sense 3.0 )
My Phone is currently running:
Android 2.3.3
Sense 2.1
Baseband Version 12.54.60.25U_26.09.04.11_M2
Kernel Version 2.6.35.10
Build Number 2.50.405.2
Software Number 2.50.405.2
My Phone has no branding!
Is rooting possible for me?
Can Someone please help me?
I am totaly new to rooting, so I would appreciate a step by step tutorial.

That makes two of looking for the same information, any help out there please

YES rooting is possible.
I rooted my Dhd about two weeks ago and all went well.
I spent about a week reading lots of different sites. All using different methods in the end I used a guide on driphter.com
Forum > Everything Android > HTC Desire HD/Inspire 4G > General Discussion > [GUIDE] Downgrade, Root, Radio & Eng S-OFF DHD/Inspire 4G in 9 Steps
if your unbranded you can skip the goldcard step.
i also had to download the PD98IMG using my phone and move it to the root (not in any folder) of the sd card using astro
the only other step i changed was to install visionary+ from blackmart alpha (google it. Its a blackmarket market) the install from the toolkit didn't work for me.
JSL is very good/quick to answer questions on that fourm.
Hope this helps.

What do I need S-Off for?
What does it do?
Thanks for the Help, Ill try it out...
(I hope I dont brick my phone)

You need s-off to flash new roms its an added security HTC add.
I think it stands for security off but i'm not 100% sure if anyone wants to correct me/let mr know please do.

I can´t download the ToolKit
Something seems to be wrong with the .zip file...
Any other way?

What you guys need to do is read, and follow closely, all of the information contained in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1079108

Could it be your Antivirus is killing the download? check to see if it is being held in Quarantine.

[Q] help with root for HTC Desire HD (android 2.3.5 / software 3.13.415.2)

hello …... can i ask some noob questions ….. cause this thread one of the best and most organized one’s ….i’m not expert in modifying android …. but i need to root my device because some apps won’t work without it …......
i read a lot about the root thing and it was confusing ..
so i downloaded the aahk kit and read the Effen Manual ( i found that you really hate those who start the process without reading the instructions > so i did my homework and studied the manual ))))
but still have some question that need to be answered before i start …
my device is not rooted before ….i bought with the original OS and updated to GB after one day .. and couple weaks ago i recieved the new 2.3.5 with sense 3.0 .. OTA.......
i understood that the root thing doesn’t erase any data in your device (contacts, music, pics,or apps ))......but when i read the effen manual i found this in (imported version notes ) If you are running one of the following Sense 3 build versions a full downgrade is required, which means your data WILL be lost ….
one of them is : HTC Arabic 3.13.415.2 downgrades to HTC ARABIC GB 2.42.415.1
my version ….. is 3.13.415.2
(1) so that mean i will lose everything ????
(2) after downgrade to GB2.42.415.1 and finishing the root …. what version will i have the 2.42.415.1 or the 3.13.415.2........
(3) will the android 2.3.5 and sense 3.0 remain without change or will it change to previous version ….
(4) at last … if i want to return the device back to the original condition can i ?? if yes it will return to 3.13.415.2 a previous one >>> and it will return to android 3.3.5 with sense 3.0 or previous one …...and if it will return to a previous one will i be able to update it to 2.3.5 with sense 3.0 through the regular way ( through setting>about phone>software updates ) or will i have to do it manually …...
one more thing if used unofficial rom (cayoon …. etc ) then decided to return to my original rom ...can i ???
sorry to bother you with my noob questions ...but i will be more than pleased if you helped me out …. cause i really found your thread pretty use full , organized and cleared …

AFAIK, there is no way to root firmware 3.13 (correct me if I'm wrong). In order to root it, you must downgrade your device in a lower version that has the root exploit.
To answer your questions:
(1) so that mean i will lose everything ???? - Yes since you are downgrading your device, all data will be erased.
(2) after downgrade to GB2.42.415.1 and finishing the root …. what version will i have the 2.42.415.1 or the 3.13.415.2........ - It will be 2.42.415.1 since you downgrade your device to this version.
(3) will the android 2.3.5 and sense 3.0 remain without change or will it change to previous version …. - It will be changed the version which firmware 2.42.415.1 has. If you want to get Sense 3.0 and android 2.3.5 again, you will then have to flash a new ROM on your device that has Sense 3.0 and Android 2.3.5
(4) if you want to go back to stock after rooting, you can download a RUU with the build/firmware number you want to go back with then flash it on your phone then everything will be back on stock.

thank you very much for the explication ......
do you advice me to go through all this ....i need the root and i don't want to stuck with old version which mean i have to flash custom room .....and i'm beginner at this things ..and it will be my first time to root and flash rom...??????

It is up to you bro . If you are not satisfied with the stock ROM and you want to do other things that require Root access then go ahead. If you are satisfied enough with the stock, I suggest do not.
If you decide to continue rooting it, my advice is to be very careful. Though most of the people here on XDA successfully rooted their devices, there is still a chance to brick your device if you not follow the correct procedures. Read and follow the instructions step by step so you wont brick your phone.
By the way, if your DHD still has warranty, you will be losing it if you root. So think first if you want root or not. Its your device anyways
