As for rooting that is pretty easy here is a link to the Ace Hack Kit, read the instructions several times and you should have no problems. They have an IRC channel if you have any questions rooting.

Hi,
I downgraded my HTS desire to ROM version 1.21.405.2 with the help of:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256
I successfully downgraded to 1.21.405.2 but then i want to come back on INDIA_ASIA rom. For this i flashed rom:
RUU_Bravo_hTC_Asia_India_1.21.720.4_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_127705_signed
This is it... it first locked on the HTC screen and then i pulled out the battery. When i tried to restart the device i was having nothing on my screen. Only a black screen is there now, when i switch it on i feel the vibration but nothing on screen.
Help me out of this i was just looking to get on my custom ROM but now i am without my desire.... :-(
most definetily you have an SLCD screen. search the forum how to unbrick slcd Desire.
Hi mariosraptor ,
Thanx for your reply.. but i again did the same procedure of downgrading to 2.1 and now my desire is running fine Can u please guide me that which will be the best official ROM that i can use on my desire so that i am not bricked again and can use it for warranty too... I purchased it from India and also when the updates were available for my new phone it was coming with HTC_ASIA_INDIA...
Current ROM:
Firmware version: 2.1-update1
Baseband version: 32.41.00.32U_4.08.00.09
Kernel version: 2.6.29-0cb9f166 [email protected] #1
build number: 1.21.405.2 CL174215 release-keys
software number: 1.21.405.2
browser version: Webkit 3.1
Thanx in advance..
There isn't one
Can u explain???
Explain what?? The RUU you're after doesn't exist so the only way you'll get it working is to:
1. Flash the older AMOLED-only RUU
2. Find the thread on here telling you what to do when you can't see the screen to flash the OTA update manually and hope it works
Otherwise you'll have to stay on the WWE ROM until an RUU for your region is released

Super tempted to FLAME YOU because you are clearly in the wrong section. If you have a question then PLEASE post in the RIGHT Section which is Q&A.
Also, you clearly haven't searched through the forum cause there are COUNTLESS forum threads about how to root your G2 or Desire Z. Including mine.
Just read the rules, post in the right sections and use the search function and you'll be fine.
Sorry man, but it seems that you didn't read my post carefully.
The goldcardmethod will not work. And it was YOUR tread i have found in my countless searches, and was the how to im followed. Believe me, i try since 5 days to make anything working for me.
pls move my tread and forgive me the "wrong section post".

Hi everybody:
After two days looking for information in the forum I'm going to try to install the ICS on my HTC Desire Z.
As I'm a noob in the forum and in rooting procedures, I'm going to describe what steps I follow in order to have it wrote if there is a problem with my phone.
My Software Information is:
Android Version: 2.3.3
HTC Sense: 2.1
Radio: 12.56.60.25U_26.10.04.03_M
Kernel: 2.6.35.10-g53a84f9
Compilation Number: 2.42.405.4 CL 192788 release-keys
Software number: 2.42.405.4
As far as I know, as my Android Version is 2.3.3 (Gingerbread) I have to downgrade my phone to 1.34. For that I will follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178912
After that I have to root my phone as told in the wiki.
Can anyone confirm that I want to do is correct, please?
Kind Regards
JSP
PS: Sorry for my poor english!
