S-off deisre hd ? - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hy,
My Desire HD is root and bootloader is open , but i can't make it s-off i have tried many tools, but always the same problem.
"problem of connexion"?
Plaese help.

Find and use AAHK - its the commonly used tool and works flawlessly if you follow the instructions.

and be sure to have the right driver installed in your pc before do the aahk

Yep, you better use advanced ace hack kit (AAHK) as advised - besides, it containes correct drivers you need. Just follow the instructions in aahk.
PS
Better download it from the official site (google for "advanced ace hack kit shadowchild").

Have you got a link to find the aahk please?

I have just used Advanced ACE Hack Kit it will downgrade your radio and then it will root your device with S-off after that your ready to install any ROM you like.
This is what i did when i used Advanced ACE Hack Kit for the 1st time. I was Bit scared but It was so simple.

-Make sure you have installed all HTC drivers as required
-Make sure you have installed latest HTC sync
-Make sure you have debugging mode enabled
-Read read read! Read another guide if you need to! Read comments because they have valuable info!
Good luck man!

How to Obtain 2.3 RUU From HTC Developers Site

Well, I wrote this a couple of times and it gets more boring every time. Also, the link in Bortak's guide is not working so if someone needs it here you go:
-go to HTC developers site
http://htcdev.com/
-go to KERNEL SOURCE CODE section
-configure filter by DEVICE (choose Desire)
-mark OTHER below
-click on FIND FILES
-and there you go, the first file is 2.3 upgrade utility.
Not that hard?
Hi, can this be pushed directly to the phone ? and how ?
sure I'll lose root permission and S-OFF Right? . sorry for the stupid questions I'm a noob -- first baby steps

You need to extract the exe from the file. The exe is buried two levels deep in a zip.Thereafter run the exe from PC with the phone connected. But before you run the RUU ensure your phone is stock hboot. If it is a alpharev hboot then flash the downgrader hboot from alpharev.nl. Thereafter the "unlock" will appear on bootloader. Then you can run the RUU. You will lose root and soff after RUU.
If you want to again root after this then you have to follow the steps given in revolutionary.io.

No its a direct link to the download from htc
I have just found my old HTC Desire (GSM) again.
Now I would like to install an Android 4.4 or 5.0 Rom on it, but for this I have to S-OFF it and install a custom recovery on it.
Is it still possible? As the most tools are down? And if yes, could someone give me the needed links etc? Thanks.
I am on Android 2.3
Have searched for hours. :/

Help about rooting and installing custom ROM

Heloo,
Ok so my friend's DhD needs rooting and installing custom ROM and I require little help (because he is not very tech guy ). As I understood the procedure for root and custom ROM is with "UMT - Ultimate Multi Tools" and following the instructions which I found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1180639
-Launch a Downgrade
-Install visionary+ (In visionary+, launch "Temproot", and "Atempt Perm root"). Your device is now rooted!
-Launch S-OFF/Super CID/SIM Unlock
-Install ROM Manager (In ROM Manager, flash recovery)
-Flash HBOOT
-You can install a ROM Custom (I assume via CWM)
Am I missing something or this is it ?

If the phone is already S-OFF, then you just need to flash a custom recovery like CWM or 4ext and then flash the rom you like. Check the guide Teichopsia told you. Is all in there.

[Q] How can i unlock my WFS?

Hello.
I readed some forum, some topic but i'm in a hell....
My WFS:
HBOOT: 1.09.0099
Android vers: 2.3.5
Software vers: 2.26.401.3
Build number: 2.26.401.3 CL362953 relase-keys
I want my S-ON mobile to S-OFF.
Please help me.
Thank you.
If you want S-OFF then use XTC-Clip
If you want to unlock your bootloader,go to HTCDev.com
Man, i tried this. But it doesn't work. I give some error.. (190,140). I tried zergRush i give 'perminission denied'.
If You have GSM phone, then forget it (unless You have XTC Clip). Official support guy told me they don't provide S-OFF solution because technitians don't want for us to lose warranty. He also said that all solutions on S-OFF can be found on this forum. So good luck.

To unlock your bootloader you need to visit HTCDEV.com register (its free), and then follow the instructions to unlocking you boot loader by choosing the HTC Wildfire S. it is very siple.
If you need to get the files that it will suggest at some point you can find them on this post.

Not to my knowledge. I have been trying to install custom ROM with S-ON for 6 months now. I'm just here checking to see if there were any new developements an noticed your post.
with an unlocked boot loader it is possible to root de wildfire S, but I have not been able to install custom ROM. The main reason is that it is not possible to access keyareas in de operating system. So far I know without S-off you can only flash a new boot.img and a new system img.
It is best to unlock the bootloader and flash a pre-rooted system.img.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1664533
At least this way you can use Link2SD so that the 150Mb internal storage in no longer an issue and you have root access so al other fun rooted phone stuff is available to you. You just cannot flash custom roms unfotunately...

Can any one help me out please!
