Either:
a)you didn't look at all on this topic
b)you looked hard but couldn't find stickied guide on how to do it in this very forum poking in your eyes.
I'd recommend you enlist yourself for account removal because you don't seem to know how to handle wealth of info in these forums.

If I do what you said, will it root my phone? Hahaha. Lol

What will you do to root if your HBOOT version is 0.93.0001?

so I don't write everything
After I S-off the phone, I used Unrevoked to root and get Super User
if it doesn't help, google your Kernel version (Settings>About phone>Software information>Kernel Version), how to root and s-off

Can I download a Rom directly to my phone

Then go in recovery and just easy install?

Assuming ur s-off then download the rom u want, make sure u have the correct hboot for it and sdcard is partitioned to suit the rom then boot into recovery do a full wipe then install zip from sdcard. I had to do it this way many times coz my laptop only connects to my phone when it can be bothered lol

What does wipe mean? "Clear memory" part, in recovery?

Is it there? Lol u tell me. U can partition ur sdcard with 4ext recovery (if ur s-off) or use gparted. Most roms will require u to have exr3/4 partition bout 1-1.5gb.

It is, unless you unplug your phone in middle of the process.

I have a problem

Soooo. I've had my HTC desire (gsm) for about a year. I rooted it. Put new roms on it. Flashed it hundreds of times. But I got bored. So I thought is go back to stock HTC 2.3 sense.
Wrong.....
Now no matter what I try I can re-root it.
I've tried alpharevx.
I've tried apps.
I've tried fastboot.
I've tried hboot.
And a few other I can't even remember.
Sooooo. My question is this. How do I root a phone that doesn't want to be rooted and only wants to run stock 2.3
Any help greatly received.
Regards

to s-off 2.3 use revolutionay then flash superuser to get root
Sent from my HTC Desire

I've tried revolutionary as well but I get the message. "did not get root this time. This sometimes happens. Please try again."
I've tried 12 time in a row.
Still doesn't work.
Any idea or links or even PM

Hmm revolutionary should work, as far as i know its the only 1 that can s-off hboot 1.02.0001
How r u using revolutionary? is ur phone booted up and usb bugging enabled? dont mean to offend u with those silly questions lol its just strange it dont work. Now saying that, maybe revolutionary does'nt work on all devices, i dont know. im only guessing. also i know that theres a few other programs that r supposed to do the job like SuperOneClick and there mite be one or 2 others but i really cant tell u if they work or not or if they cause problems, i really dont know.

Try unrEVOked_3.20…just 3.20!

I tried revolutionary from a clean install with usb debugging enabled. I've tried super one click
Universal androot.

And if I remember one more
Even the Htcdev boot unlocker.
Still nothing works.

Man, keep your advise to yourself... seriously.
via xda app

I did it in the same order as you are trying now. First got stock 2.3 and then wanted root.
I remember it was easy. I just googled for a how to and I don't even think it was on xda, just a random page. I had the same hboot, gsm.

With your hboot ver revolutionary is the only option. Period.
Revolutionary only gives SOFF and allows you to install recovery.
You have to flash the su zip seperately to get root - superuser
One simple thing to try would be to change the computer, install hboot drivers and try revolutionary again.
Hope this helps.

Huh?........., can you explain what you mean? English is not my first language, but I am not dumb. In fact I got scholarship . I tried unrooting via SuperOneClick before and it works, so I'm just helping.

still not rooting
hmmm
so heres my plan
1) ruu stock 2.2
2)try as many different root gadgets i can get my hands on
3) if no luck try on mac instead of pc
4)if no luck. im buying an iphone. . . . . .grrrr

Hi guys, i want to revert back to stock and it's the first time i do this.
i have Trick Droid installed, rooted with ext4 recovery, rooted my phone with AAHK.
I downloaded this RUU: RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_R_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_233505_signed.exe

Why dont you check it yourself. Just reboot to bootloader and take note of bootloader info. If it written " ace pvt eng/ship s-off" then you are s-off. Better confirm it to avoid problems that may occur during ruu..

I don't know what guides you followed but get used to reading the stickies that is where the useful information is located:

If you already unlocked the bootloader, then just flash a custom recovery and then Superuser.

What about reading the whole post I linked you?...
...As you can notice root access is easy to be gained but not S-OFF. If you are skilled in android and working with terminal or cmd commands, then you can use this: http://tau.shadowchild.nl/attn1/?p=411...

That is the only way to gain S-OFF right now. Why you need S-OFF btw?

No reason really, fastbooting the .img I'm simple. But s-off makes it a little easier

One thing I've noticed is that ky recovery does NOT restore backups. Md5 mismatch. Would this be a ad card problem or recovery its self. Tried flashing 4ext but needed s-off
