Stock HTC Desire

How do I unroot, restore default ROM, restore default hboot and go back to S-ON. Basically 100% stock since I need to send my phone back to the provider due to hardware issues. Many thanks.

Download and run the latest ruu. Check the Desire Index thread.

Actually, you need to download the latest RUU for YOUR Desire. Did you make a note of it before flashing a new ROM?

You can find everything in this thread

so flashing the ruu restores default hboot and S-ON?

Yes it does

He means the RUU specific for your carrier and handset, im guessing this would be the 3 UK one based on your avatars.

Oh thanks! Its actually vodafone handset with 3 UK similar card. Thanks folks

Hi
When I tried H3G uk its saying ur phone ready to use but screen not working when i tried WWE(world wide english), it stated the customer id prob, install correct RUU.

You need a gold card for a non-3 UK RUU - sounds ike you have an SLCD screen and flashed an AMOLED RUU, hence the black screen

Out of interest, if you run available 3uk ruu and check for updates, won't it update it for you? Mine was 3uk before root and custom ROM, so might need this info at some point. Thanks

That seems logical - I will be interested in this answer also!

Yes, but if you can't see what you're doing it'll be hard to do it

I see what you mean lol. In old Nokia days we used to change language to Chinese on the friend phones. After having it done to me a few time I could change it back with my eyes closed. LOL

(Q)Some problems related to hdd not discussed anywhere

I am on DHD originally branded to t-mobile uk unlocked for use anywhere .i am in india
It was shipped with 2.1 which i unfortunately upgraded to gb 2.3.3 bulid 2.50
My problem is what ruu I have? Hack ace manual says don't use it on froyo ruu
When I run hack ace kit everything works fine but I am in stuck in info signing
When I use the downgrade with pdb98.zip with gold card made I get # at the end but when I boot with volume button down I am not able to use volume buttons to select fastboot ,recovery or other options .
I have read almost all the posts related to this and believe me I am still unroofed
Plz help at earliest .i dream of miui on my DHD

Anyone.actuallymy htc desire is unlocked previously on tmobile network.works fine on Indian network.i don't have any warranty on this and even professionals nearby me have put down their hands ,for them I am professional asking for stars.
I am on gingerbread 2.3.3 build 2.50 s-on hboot 0.8 .my main problem is I have successfully done the procedure with and without gold card process but hboot hangs and I can't choose any options .neither I have the restore mode 9-10 options .just the original 4 options in hboot mode/restore mode

Anybody from india who can help me on this.or anybody who is having tmobile unlocked desire hd on Indian carrier .plz plz plz .i doono what radio img means even but I successfully rooted my dell streak 5 some days ago

Just delete the img file from your sd card and root the phone if you already haven't. AAHK does everything including gold card automatically. After that just flash any rom from the dev section.
And this has been discussed before. I'll post some links about similar discussions tomorrow. Too tired now..

Dear AAHK stops on info signing or signing something in between and I keep on sitting seeing this for 1/2 hour and then I have to reboot my phone .even I have read much praises about AAHK but it's not working for me .
Plz somebody

Why not try the old fashioned way?
create the goldcard with this:
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-make-gold-card-for-htc-desire-hd/
then downgrade and root with this:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Ace:_Rooting_&_CyanogenMod
Worked for me.
I had an unlocked t-mobile germany rom on my phone that i upgraded from froyo to gingerbread shortly before i rooted, so i guess it should be very similar to your starting condition.

[Q] HTC Wildfire S not booting up

I searched the forum for such an incident and even though there were similar incidents none of them could help me see where i was going wrong. The phone was sent to get its screen replaced and the idiots at vodafone reflashed it. Ever since it refuses to pass the HTC screen. It can still go to bootloader and flash mode. I tried the simple method of putting the .zip on the SD card but it tells me CID error, I honestly dont want to send this back to vodafone i fear if it returns this time it might explode if i try to turn it on.
Summary:
1. Phone wont pass the HTC screen
2. Tried the simple reformatting method
3. ?
Any insight to this puzzle would be greatly appreciated
thanks

do you know your cid? if you do you have to open the file you're trying to flash and edit the text file that needs your cid

no i dont, and the methods of obtaining it i saw in the similar instances required the use of a CID getting app, but this requires the phone to be on and booted, which it cant do

Have you unlocked your bootloader? If you have, boot into the bootloader, enable fastboot and flash ClockworkMod Recovery, then install a ROM.

The bootloader doesnt seem to be unlocked, i'll look into it and post the results thanks

Ok by some miracle the phone is now booting but i want to ensure its stability I used the CID getter app and the CID is [VODAP102] please tell me where specifically to pop this in the readme file in the zip

I put the CID number in the android-info text file everywhere i saw that it needed a CID number and it goes to bootloader checks the .zip then return to the hboot main screen :/
Specs on bootloader screen:
MARVEL PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.90.0000
MICROP-0451
RADIO-7.53.39.03M

Still havent made any progress, once again my plea is for assistance with this quandry

I also tried flashing ClockWorkMod Recovery and it put me back to the bootloader screen

Ok, I have been doing some reading and it seems this can be solved by making a goldcard and flashing from it, or by unlocking the bootloader, I tried both of these procedures with the relevant guides found on this site. I am now lost and confused to wether i should still try to fix it or jus throw it into a wall

I live in Jamaica but the HTC Wildfire S i got is from Vodafone Germany. I would allow you to do remote access but i wish to understand this process as I am getting a HTC G1 soon which I want to MOD the hell out off

You say that ever since Vodafone sent your phone back, your phone hasn't been booting ? First thing to do is send it back to them, if you're absolutely certain it's their fault.

[Q] Debranding fails - Error 140

Hey guys, I'm having serious trouble debranding my desire and spent the last days 'n nights searching for a solution.
Three days ago I was given an HTC Desire A8181 by my sister's boyfriend from Canada. I want to use it in Germany and somehow 3G doesen't work at all(only Edge).
So I thought about flashing a European /WWE ROM to solve the problem.
As he told me the phone was unbranded I just picked the last EU RUU from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667
But while flashing I got Error 130 - Wrong RUU.
Flashing itself doesn't seem to be the problem: My sister's boyfriend found his old ROM he was using before on this phone and I was able to flash it without problems.
It is 3.14.405.1 / Android 2.3. - apparently Telus branded.
I checked with Terminal Emulator and found out that the phone is indeed Telus branded. So I created a goldcard and tried again.
Now I get Error 140 while flashing ( wrong Bootloader version )
Could it be, that the ROM I want to install is too old?
I'd appreciate any suggestion.
Information:
Bravo PVT3 Ship S-ON
HBOOT-1.02.0001
MICCROP-051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
Radio-5.17.05.23
The Phone is unrooted.
Both drivers and HTC Sync are installed on my PC.
Btw. Any ideas why 3G doesn't work?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there!
If this is the case you could just flash a stock ROM instead?
Also, this may help: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943726 to unlock the phone fully (though it seems like that's the case already it may help) it's quite safe. I've done it on about 4 Desire's without problems over the last two years.
There is Teppic74's rooted stock 2.3 ROM which is very good and exactly like the RUU version, with the exception of being rooted: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200261
To root the phone, last I checked it was pretty simple. You simply downlopad unREVoked, run it, connect your phone when you're told and let it do it's stuff: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788044
Also, a problem you MAY have is that the phone is CDMA and Europe is mostly GSM networks (I think)

@ Kryten2k35
Thanks for your reply.
Firstly, I already SIM-unlocked it with the linked tool - that was the first thing I did after holding it in my hands.
Actually I could install a custom ROM, yes and I must admit that I already did so before. I tried out Supernova and tried to flash a new Radio ( I used unrevoked to do so) . I was quite sure that I screwed st. up so I wanted to get a nice proper European RUU running on my phone. That's when I always had Error 130 ("wrong RUU") while flashing all kinds of official ROMs. At this point I was given the (obviously Telusbranded) Telus ROM that perfectly worked as the only exeption.
I had the same idea with that CDMA / GSM uncompatability but found out, that my modell Number is A8181 which is sold in Europe/ Asia. So it should work...
Thanks anyways!
Other ideas?

Well, that Teppic74 ROM is completely stock (except it's rooted) so it's exactly like the Gingerbread ROM. He tailors all his stock ROM's to be totally like stock!
Have you tried the offical HTC Desire Gingerbread RUU? Beware it will stop you from ever putting a custom ROM on again (iirc)

Well, mate, the biggest problem with compatibility is a band version of device not rom. If you got it from Telus you have to check which frequencies it supports and see which one are used in Germany (I think you said Germany).
About RUU, you can't flash EU RUU on your device without a gold card because of CID version of your phone.
And if you want stock RUU that will work on your phone go to HTC dev site, kernel source code part, configure filter to DEVICE (Desire) and choose OTHER below it, click FIND FILES and the first one to download will be RUU upgrade android version 2.3. It's made for all CIDs and it will work with your hboot version.

Hey guys, thanks for responding.

Why should it do so?
Besides I'm quite sure, that the ROM I'm currently using IS the latest official ROM - it can't be a branded one.
FIrst: Android Task Manager tells me under information - Brand: HTC_WWE
Sounds like HTC's official version.
Second: Current System Software is entitled: 3.14.405.1. ,which is HTC's latest Gingerbread (2.3.3)-update. So actually it cannot be branded.
Third: THe old owner swears that the ROM he gave me was NOT branded.
I just found out that flashing with a comon SDcard would lead to Error 130 while flashing with Goldcard leads to Error 140.
At this point I probably could S-Off and root the phone and put a custom ROM on it but I'd really, really, really like to know why I'm unable to flash those stupid RUUs.
And if you want stock RUU that will work on your phone go to HTC dev site, kernel source code part, configure filter to DEVICE (Desire) and choose OTHER below it, click FIND FILES and the first one to download will be RUU upgrade android version 2.3.

I just checked that THIS RUU is exactly the one I have installed right now!
Thanks for this hint!
So could you tell me why only this RUU works and the other ones don't?
Thanks a lot!

I suppose it's because of the updated bootloader, which is 1.02 and won't be downgraded to 0.93, which would be the froyo version.
Btw, this will not stop you from doing s-off (which I'd recommend you to do). Only using HTC Dev unlock will stop you, so avoid using it.
Gesendet von meinem HTC Desire

Yes bootloader is the problem, so you can't flash older RUU. If you go s-off (only revolutionary can do so for you) you can flesh alpharev stock hboot which is write protected and you can try older RUU (but I don't see a reason).
So, go s-off and root now and flash a custom rom of your choice.

Thanks guys, you really helped me out!
So far I flashed CM 7.2 and it's running fine - will try to get a proper radio on it hoping the 3G issues will disappear.
Thanks!

Sir,as far as I know A9191(Desire HD) only for Outside USA which released in 2010, where as A9192(Inspire 4G) released only for USA in 2011. So even if sticker pilled off you may find out.
Just turn back your device,if its AT&T print so its A9192 and if A9191 then it will print as hTC.
Simple isnt it?
@maartards,if S-ON is OK with you then still you may flash any custom ROM you want.just need to flash boot.IMG every time you flash new custom ROM to your device.
Thanks.

How can I flash that ROM? Via custom recovery? How to get it without s-off or root?
