[Q] Hboot Downgrade necessary for firmware Reset?? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
because of Warranty issues i need to install the genuine Vodafone RUU on my Desire, at the moment my Desire(Amoled) is S-Off and the Alpharev Hboot Version 0.93.0001 is installed (Stock Paritition Layout), the question is is a downgrade necessary before i install the Vodafone RUU??

Yes, just flash the Alpharev Downgrader, then run the RUU.

Unrooting

Hi!
My phone broke and now I want to try to get it fixed with warranty. I'm not sure if warranty still is available if I use root so I want to unroot.
I have read that all I need to do is flash the RUU, but which one? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824357
And what will flashing it do? Will it remove CWM and everything else I was using to root? I remember that I flashed radio 2 times, had S-OFF and E-ON.
And then I will simply run System Update? Because it seems that RUU are firmwares that phones are shipped with.
yea, just flash a RUU.
Make sure you install the original RUU for the type of your DHD (i.e. WWE, Voda,T-Mobile...)
and if your phone is S-OFF, make it S-ON - S-OFF / S-ON GUIDE (guide for S-ON is at the end of the 1st post). Go into bootloader and make sure you have S-ON
--your recovery will be restored to original HTC recovery
Oh, but which RUU I need to flash? I remember I needed to do a downgrade and I think it was 1.72.405.3, not the R2, but I'm not sure.
Well, when you had your phone, was it branded?
if so, you need to find a brand-specific RUU.
If not, then WWE RUU is fine.
i would suggest the 1.32 FW (because S-ON requires temproot from Visionary+), then follow the guide to S-ON
What about radio? I have flashed the leaked gingerbread radio, wouldn't they be able to see that I have flashed a newer radio? Or the RUU flashes radio also?
RUU flashes radio too. But after flashing the RUU have a look into the bootloader, the device might still be S-Off. For S-On you need to root again and Use the easy radio tool to make S-On again. Then use the RUU again.
It still was S-OFF, but used Visionary and Easy Radio Tool to get S-ON. A brand new phone
Thanks!
Does it work the RUU to flash even if I come from an ext4 ROM (ARHD 5.1.9)?
Or do I need to format first by cwm 3.0.2.6 so that it is ext3 again?
No one any advice?

plzzzzzzzzzzz help meeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i am had wildfire s-off
i had flashed HBOOT 0.80.007
i can not s-off again
please help me
Get HBoot 1.01.0001 by installing the WWE 2.22.405.1 RUU from Shipped ROMs, then perform the S-OFF procedure using Revolutionary again. It will not work on HBoot 0.80x.

ailpharev not work for hboot 0.80.0007
and i can not update to 1.01.0001
help me
sory my bad english
Why cant you update to 1.01.0001? Did you flash the RUU?
Actually, I am telling you to flash the RUU to get to HBoot 1.01.0001, then use Revolutionary again. (The correct RUU is WWE 2.22.405.1)
im use allway ruus
error:cid error
any hboot & any ruu
i lost day test hboot 1.01.001 equal error ,s-off correctly,but by hboot 0.80.x no update no s-off not work
CID Error means you will need to create a Goldcard and then try to flash the RUU. If you need S-OFF again, you will have to update to HBoot 1.01.0001, else, its not possible.
If you just want to root and install Custom ROMs and stuff, then, dont bother with S-OFF, just use Unrevoked.

I have a goldcard before start progress. Before install this ruu am i need to install a stock hboot ? This hboot and bootlader could be problem for me ?
if you have any custom alpharev hboot, flash alpharev downgrade(via fastboot) reboot to fastboot and flash alpharev stock hboot then run ruu

Unrooting failed?

Desire People,

"Main version is older"
What should i do to fix it?
Much thanks

How did you try to unroot your desire?
I think the steps you have to do for unrooting are:
-Flash the Bravo Downgrader as described here: alpharev.nl
-Flash a RUU that fits for you from here: shipped-roms.com (you need a windows-pc to do so)
Hope this helps, greets

He is S-on, so cannot flash the downgrader.
OP, What RUU are you using? What Hboot version?
You cannot flash older Hboots, you must flash same or newer so RUU must contain newer HBOOT than you have.
Please provide full details of your device.

[Q] HTC Desire HELP!!!!!

Hi guys.Sry if i post wrong.I have a problem.I have a HTC DESIRE stock rom 2.3.3 rooted.The phone is S-OFF.So i wanted to unroot.The gingerbread ruu is installing but the phone is stil S-OFF.How can i get to froyo 2.2 stock rom?
I did understand that i need the stock bootloader then flash the stock 2.2 ruu.But i cant find this stock bootloader.
I am very very sorry.I done it.I got the s-on back.
If you want to unroot you need to do this.
1.Download from alpharev.nl the Bravo Stock(PB99IMG_stock - easy to install;only remove to PB99IMG and get in bootloader - volume down + power button) and the Bravo Downgrader (the PB99IMG_downgrade thing;you need to to the same to it.
You will get HBOOT 6.93.9999(i dont remember;it is the 9999 thing in the end) and S-OFF
2.Now download a stock RUU (android 2.3.3 in my case) and install it
3.Get in bootloader and you will now see 1.02.0001(in my case) and the hboot will be S-ON
I think you can install any RUU like 2.2.
Remember that sometimes(if the RUU is old) you will need to create a goldcard
Sorry for poor english,tutorial and the links(i am new here).This tutorial is not mine.All credits goes to "bortak".
