Thats kinnda what I did I think....And the problem is that my phone is stuck on htc logo screen. So now I would be happy just to get back to working phone.
Can you get in to the hboot by starting phone by pressing volume down + power? And I think latest ruu is the ruu_bravo_froyo_htc_wwe_2.29.405.5

Well I need ruu for europe cuz im theere. And yes,I can get into hboot. From there I tryed recovery.
I'm from europe too and the right ruu for mine phone is the RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27
And i think you have to use that one because of the hboot. the ruu you are using have a old hboot version and i dont think the ruu will downgrade hboot..
But if you can enter fasboot use that to flash a recovery and wipe youre phone then install a custome room on it.

AlphaRev
BRAVO PVT3 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.93.1002
MICROP-051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-4.05.00.11
Before installing RUU, make sura that you have installed Alpharev stock hboot
1. download from alpharev.nl the file "bravo_alphaspl.img" then put it on your desire with fastboot
2. install RUU
I did that 5 minutes ago..

Unless the computer/phone has ESP, yes, both adb and fastboot need a cable connection!
If you dont want to do it over cable, find the corresponding PB99IMG and follow the PB99IMG method

Use the attached file.
Put it in the root of your card (not in any folder)
Reboot by pressing Vol- and Power button.
When asked to update, confirm with Vol -
This should give you a working recovery. Then you can flash any rom as you usually do, and at that instance, your bootloops will be solved too.
After this, if you still wish to return Hboot to Stock (without losing S-Off), you can use this PB99IMG. <Make sure you rename it to the same name as the previous file after deleting the former.

Hello. I want to make sure that the method I read about of flashing the Radio is correct, since this could permanently brick my device.
I have ROOT and S-OFF but nu custom hboot yet. My partitions are stock.
I. To flash a RADIO:
1. Go into recovery
2. Choose install zip from sd
3. Choose zip from sd
4. Confirm
5. Reboot
II. If later I want to flash a custom HBOOT:
1. Download the HBOOT I want (and rename it to PB99IMG.zip)
2. Put it on root of SD card
3. Boot into bootloader (Volume Down + Power)
4. It will ask If I want to upgrade the HBOOT - Select Yes
5. It will reboot on it's own ???
6. Install ROM
Check MD5 of Radio and ROM.
Also I'm unable to check the MD5 of the zip file I've downloaded from AlphaRev - PB99IMG.zip, because it doesn't match. Is this ok?
Are these steps correct?
If there are also other way's I'm more than gladly to know.
I know about AndroidFlasher, but I don't want to risk upgrading from PC, cause lately there were some power down's of the electricity I don't want to risk to happen when I'm in the middle of flashing something as important as Radio or HBOOT.
Thank you for all your help.
L.E.: When do I need to flash the HBOOT downgrader? When I want to go from one HBOOT to another do I always have to first flash the downgrader and then the HBOOT, or there are only certain HBOOT's that I have to apply this prior to installing another HBOOT?

To check the md5sum you have to extract the hboot.img from the downloaded pm99img.zip file and compare its to the one you can find on the homepage.
Nevetheless, I highly recommend to flash new hboot with fastboot, because the method with the pb99img.zip does not work very often.
Download the image you want, for example the cm7 r2 hboot (bravo_alphaspl-cm7r2.img). Store it anywere you want, I recommend a place where you can go very easily, maybe partition C.
Check the md5sum!!!!
Boot your phone into fastboot mode (start it with pressed back and power button). Now start cmd in windows, connect phone to computer and type:
Code:
fastboot devices
The output should be:
Code:
List of devices attached
HTxxxxxxxxxxxxx device
Instead of xxxxxxxx you should see the serial number of your phone. If it's so, enter the following comments:
Code:
fastboot flash hboot c:\bravo_alphaspl-cm7r2.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
Now you have new hboot (in this example cm7r2.) In the first line of your bootloader you should see "AlphaRev Cm7r2".
Thank you. I'll save this text for further uses. So this is the best way to flash another HBOOT.
The method to flash the radios is good?
Thanks.

personally I find it A LOT easier and quicker to use fastboot tools such as fastboot commander. I think it's also better for novice users, and it gives you functions that novice users may not know when it comes to using fastboot with cmd.

So I've a looked more around and found out that flashing the Radio is as I described it. So I'll take my time now to flash the new Radio (5.17.05.08) and then the new ROM.
Still one question remained unanswered. If someone could help me:

Alpharev uploaded r2 of the hboots for cm7 and oxygen. These two hboots have a protection, that they cannot be overwritten. So if you are using one of these hboots, you have to flash hboot downgrader before you can flash a new hboot.

I have read this thread before I ROOT-ed my phone. It would probably be more easy to flash either Radio or HBOOT through fastboot, but since I've got the problem I mentioned about in first post, I don't want to take the risk. What if the power goes down when I'm in the middle of flashing...then there goes down the phone too
I'll try the fastboot command when I can use my GF's laptop.
Thank you very much.
So to use the HBOOT Downgrader I have to have first one of the two (either Bravo Oxygen r2 or Bravo CM7 r2), and then if I want to put another HBOOT: Flash HBOOT Downgrader ---> Flash HBOOT Bravo Stock ---> Flash Other HBOOT.
Ok. Now I got it al sorted out.
Thanks for all the help.

The step with stock hboot is not needed. You can flash downgrader and then directly the new hboot. The downgrader deletes all partitions.

you only need to flash the HBOOT downgrader from alpharev when you are using a RUU to unroot your phone. Aplharev's HBOOT's are designed so that a RUU will not overwrite the HBOOT - untill you downgrade it using the downgrade utility.

THX a billion!
Im on cm7r2 and want to reverse to stock.
Was looking for exactly this answer!
I to read somewhere that someone just flashes the hboots that he wants,
but not talking about downgrader-use (couldnt find it again - so searched for something like this answer!). And Alpharev dont say anything about
using the downgrader only this:
"Downgrade protection, these HBOOTs cannot be overwritten by an OTA or RUU, unless you flash a downgrader HBOOT first."
So downgrader is only nesccesary if wanting to go stock with a RUU or U want to get OTA.
So, UsManyDead... whatever hboot U use, just flash the next hboot U want.
(remember backup and all that sht. )

Well... Im on cm7r2 and I will try flashing stock hboot now,
so hang on for 5-10 min, and Ill let U know, if the proces
of NOT using the downgrader is good or not...
Hang on..........
Flashed BRAVO stock WITHOUT downgrader... succes!
From CM7 R2 to STOCK in a splitsecond!
Before flash: Alpharev cm7 r2
After flash: Alpharev
Thanks a lot man. It's finally sorted out.
Hi
I have successfully rooted and s-off'ed my HTC Desire using the guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016084
But im confused by HBOOT and ROM's having CM7 and A2SD versions. I initially flashed the insertcoin ROM using the A2SD version and then decided to try SGBS again using the A2SD version. But am I safe to use the CM7 version? How do I know what HBOOT i have on my phone? If I boot holding down the volume etc i see HBOOT 0.93.0001.
I understand CM7 stores some files on the internal memeory so im thinking things might be slightly quicker if i use the CM7 version ROMS.
Thanks

Either download the PB99IMG file from AlphaRev, rename to PB99IMG.zip, place it at the root of your sdcard and flash via bootloader. Or download the IMG file, enter fastboot mode and connect to your computer, then use fastboot flasher or the likes of it or use fastboot flash hboot "name of img" in command prompt.
Eg. To flash CM7r2 hBOOT via command prompt just connect the phone to your computer in fastboot mode, 'fastboot devices' to ensure your phone is recognized and then 'fastboot flash hboot bravo_alphaspl-cm7r2.img'.
Sent from my HTC Original Desire with Beats Audio using Tapatalk
When you enter fastboot mode, youve got your hboot written at the top of the screen (if it says "alpharev" its stock hboot, just s-offed).
Edit:
If you havent flashed any hboot except for having your phone s-offed, you should have stock hboot then. You can change your hboot easily by using android flasher (you can download it from: http://deltaxent.com.au/af/download.php?device=desire), youve got to be in the fastboot mode and have all needed drivers.
And, to be clear, hboot doesnt make any I/O operations faster, it just partition your internal memory for a different parts of a rom (simplified explanation and im not completely sure of that).
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

If your bootloader says hboot 0.93.0001, you're on stock boot.
Also, if you would be on any other, it would be clearly stated in your bootloader (cm7r2 instead of 0.93.0001). I'm on stock myself, but asked the same question couple of days ago .
Sent from my HTC Runnymede using XDA App
Thanks for all the advice and help. I'm going to stick with stock for now.
you might not, because you see, different ROMs need different HBoots. Most work with the stock one, but many require the CM7 r2 too.
please can some one give the right guide for flashing the stock hboot because i wanna go back to stock but i have cm7r2 hboot
Download the bravo stock PB99IMG_stock from http://alpharev.nl/
Place it on the root of your SD card and rename it to PB99IMG.zip.
Turn the phone off, then boot into hboot using volume down and power. It will search for the file and ask if u want to flash it. Use volume up to select yes then reboot.

asked and answered many times...
you need to flash the downgrader first, as written on alpharev, where all instructions are also given
Downgrade protection, these HBOOTs cannot be overwritten by an OTA or RUU, unless you flash a downgrader HBOOT first.

You don't download the img and rename it to a zip.
You download the zip and rename it to what I said above. Here's the direct download:

i applied the downgrader and after that the stock hboot and in the bootloader it shows me 6.93.0002 at hboot
I think the downgrader is only necessary if you want to flash an ruu.
I rooted my phone using EAR tool, now I want to flash Custom Rom..I downloaded Jelly time, I did full wipe and than when I chose zip from sdcard which I want to install (jellytime) installation process started and than appeared
E:Cant't open /sdcard/name_of_rom.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
I'm realy sure that i did everything fine...I have CWM 5.8 ...Please help me, I'm affread that I brick my device..
PS. I did NaNdroid backup...Can I just restore my old ROM?
EDIT:
I reboot system because i wanted to try to flash custom rom again..Now just white screen and "HTC", it wont boot in CWM or bootloader..How I can boot into cwm now?? Maybe to remove battery?
EDIT:
Okay, now I'm in CWM again..but still "(bad) installation aborted"
EDIT:
Then I tryed to restore...It was written that restore was done, but now I reboot and five minutes just white screen and "HTC"...Is it normal that?
EDIT:
Still cant start.. (10 min after I reboot).. I bricked phone?
EDIT
So, this is my situation...I have acess to bootloader and CWM only..If I try to flash custom rom (JellyTime) appears:
E:Cant't open /sdcard/name_of_rom.zip

Installation aborted.
And after that I try to restore nandroid backup...CWM sad that restore is complete done, but when I reboot just splash screen (I wait 20 min and at the end I pull battery..)
I would rather restore backup, but why I cant do that? ..

And about nandroid backup..For me very strange is that cwm sad "restore completed", and there isnt any error in restoring process but when reboot splash screen...
Looks like the download might be corrupt. Try a new ROM. Also, don't forget to flash the boot.img from fastboot after you flash the ROM from recovery. Not sure what's going on with your nandroid, though; you shouldn't need to reflash the boot.img when restoring a nandroid. When did you make the nandroid?

I think it is not corrupt, because I downloaded it from here: http://jellytime.googlecode.com/files/cm-JellyTime_42_R11.zip
I will not forget to flash the boot.img but I can't flash ROM from cwm!! I make a nandroid before anything today...
What I have to do now? I think this is hard brick...
PS. Maybe to click in CWM: "Apply /scdard/update.zip" ... What that will do??
Doesn't matter where you got it from, it can still be corrupt...
You need to check the md5 check sum, your zip source should have it listed. An easier way is to simply open the zip file in a zip file viewer.

What does hboot say? What does the ROM zip have in it when you unzip it? Have you tried another ROM like I recommended? And please only bump once every 24 hours under XDA rules.

I don't know how many times I can say this: try another ROM. I don't use JellyTime so I can't confirm that the ROM or the version is not the problem. Or you could relock and run a RUU to return to stock. Or you could flash another recovery like 4ext and see if that helps.
If none of those options work, your phone is probably hosed. As far as I know, there is no ODIN; this is not a Samsung phone.

Ace Think Tank has guides.
Okay.. I want to try that procedure with locking bootloader and runnig RUU..
As I know, first I relock bootloader using Eacy Ace Hack tool, is it?
And than if that works, just download RUU, double click, follow the instructions and than I'm on the stock again?
P.S. Is this last stock for the dhd:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_225512_signed.exe ?
Can you try 4ext instead of CWM? I use 4ext and have no problems flashing with s-off and an unlocked bootloader.

Well I didnt try with 4ext, i don't now how to install it, because I already have CWM...And I haven't got s-off like you..
Is runnig RUU dangerous process? And someone to answer on my last question?

With s-on, you should flash roms via fastboot. I believe you need s-off before you can flash via cwm or 4ext.

Why would you exctract the rom? that will corrupt the file for sure. ODIN?? um....how come? Odin is just for Samsung devices.
Please do not double post. Thanks

I didn't extract the rom in sd card, I just viewed what files are included in jellytime.zip ... Maybe I have to update radio? My radio si Radio 26.14.04.28 ..

I don't think the radio would cause this issue. I would suggest that you go through the guide to get s-off and install 4ext.
I went through the guide with my DHD and haven't had any problems installing custom roms, creating backups, and restoring backups.
