[Q] Latest ENG HBOOT for DZ

Ok, my search returned some stuff about ENG HBOOT, but not the answer to that question:
Where can i find the latest version of the ENG HBOOT for DZ?
Currently, my SHIP HBOOT is 0.85.0005, and the latest ENG HBOOT i found was 0.84. Is it ok to flash an earlier version of HBOOT?
Thank you!

As an additional question to the questions of Ninj, I am using a desire z with eng HBOOT for G2 (0.72). The phone works. To rectify my obvious error, is it safe for me to flash the correct eng hboot for desire z instead of utilizing the one for G2?
thanks

Looks like we've got no luck on this :|
I'm still wondering about it though. Anyone?

You didn't say anything was wrong with the hboot you already have so why try and fix something that's not broken?

Sorry, i though it was obvious
I need the ENG HBOOT for some advanced stuff i find here and there. But as my current HBOOT (ship) is .85, i prefer to find a HBOOT (eng) .85 too.
I found the .84 but i would prefer the .85
Thanks

The eng hboots almost certainly came from the development side of HTC. There are no later eng hboots available, and I think it's pretty unlikely we'll get any more.
Why worry about the version number ? The eng hboot is better than the "later" ship hboot, because it gives you extra functionality (e.g. fastboot).

True that.

Well, i was just afraid about an incompatibility between the ROM (.85) and the boot
But i'll install it then. Thanks.

You are right. I did not any more change the eng hboot. It works fine anyway and want it to stay that way. Good advice

Unrooting G2 Question

I have a g2 vision and flashed the dzhboot to run sense 3.0 roms. Now I would like to unroot my phone and was wondering if I have to flash back to vision hboot before starting the process. I have done my homework and found these methods of doing it here is one

and also have one more way

But they don't say anything about having to flash a different hboot so do I ?
Thx

I think if you flash the (an) official PCIMG10.zip from the sdcard it writes over everything.
That said, since I used g-free for s-off, when I flash an official PCIMG10 I'm usually left unrooted but with a 'fake' s-off.

I think you mean PC10IMG.zip close enough though lol

T-Mobile G2 is an american version, it doesn't have Sense.
HTC Desire Z is an european/worldwide version with Sense.
So, hardware is the same.

the main difference is the hboot and stock rom. the hboot for the dz has a slightly larger patition for the system to allow for larger roms, the g2 can use the dz hboot if youd like to run certain larger roms after the phone is rooted

To further clarify what others have said, you can't flash a Sense (aka DZ) ROM onto a G2 without first flashing a DZ hboot.
I'm not positive, but I believe that a G2 ROM shouldn't be put on a DZ without an hboot change as well.

correct, a g2 rom will flash to a dz hboot without a problem. its only when the system size is too large that a dz rom wont boot (or flash) to a g2 hboot. you cant mess anything up if you try but changing your g2 to a dz hboot isnt too risky if you follow procedure. im still working on a cmtd script (sorta) so no matter the spl you can flash what you please. it seems very possible but need to work with a few guys who understand this more than me before i release it

HTC Sense 2.3 and forgot to change your hboot?
Which ROM are you actually use?
Did you install official 2.3 HTC Sense ROM using RUU after trying to install some ROMs? I think yes, because your Desire is S-ON. Did you change hboot to downgrade before you run RUU?

So... I do not know why your Desire is S-ON (as I wrote in my previous post) and I think this is the reason. You should S-OFF your phone, I think... ;P

His phone has unlocked bootloader from htcdev, so he's still s-on.
Almost all of these roms require a sd-ext partition on sd-card and you didn't wrote anything about having it. Plus for that kind of stuff working properly I think that you need s-off, so jump to downgrading of hboot and running Revolutionary tool.

[Q] S-OFF DATA++ hboot Bricked on my Desire

hello all, I am a newcomer here, this is my first post on xda, I want to talk about solving the problems I experienced on the HTC Desire
information: HBOOT: Alpharev Data + +
Recovery: 4ext by madmax89
ROM: CM11KITKANG by Spezi77
I want to restore to the official 2.3 RUU Asia WWE ROM using HBOOT but obtaining gagal.sebelum DATA + +, whenever I can restore my desire to stock the bill, but after I install the DATA + +, updates are always gagal.dan bill to date brick on my HTC Desire The bill (Triangle mark '!' in the corner of the screen), please help me for this .. thanks

Are you asking why data++ doesnt work with stock? Its because the system size of the stock sense rom is over 180mb (which is what data++ allocates to system). Since there is not enough space to contain the system files you will run into problems. Data++ hboot will only work on roms that have a system size less than 180mb.

Yh i think he has to flash the stock hboot now but recommend him the mildwild rrom and cm7r2 hboot to maximise memory.

He wants to restore his phone to stock (2.3 ruu) so no point in recommending roms.

True but hes not going to get enough memory out of it

He never said anything bout memory problems and theres lots of ways to get more memory other than mildwild rom and cm7r2 hboot.

thank you. problem now is the HTC Desire can not enter fasboot mode by pressing the back button and power. The bill stuck in a triangle with '! "how to install back to stock HBOOT update desire for a law to be normal, with the condition that the HTC desire I still stuk in the bill triangle with"! "
