[Q] O2 HTC Desire Can't Apply RUU Please Help!

Hello,
I'm posting here in desperation, I really hope someone could help me.
I've recently bought a HTC Desire from O2. It was running Android 2.2 but I flashed cyanogenmod to it along with the latest radio.
Cyanogenmod worked fine but the radio stopped my 3G internet from working. In the end I decided to simply revert back to original setup using a RUU.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, the first RUU I tried ALMOST worked but then failed claiming a file was missing and that I needed to try a complete RUU.
From that point onwards I have been unable to find an RUU that will work - I constantly receive error code 140, bootloader version error.
Can anyone please tell me how to circumvent this error OR provide me with an O2 RUU that will work?
Here's the spec from my startup screen:
BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT 0.93.0001
MICROP - 051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.09.05.30_2
Please note that the only option I have available to me from the boot-menu is RUU - Any option to enter recovery mode is not visible.
Please please help me, thank you so much in advance.
I wish I could give helpful advice...
I'm gonna try though.
Download one of the latest RUU's from here.
Perhaps your RUU was a bit old?
I've only ever done RUU once, when sending my phone back for repair. I encountered another issue.
To the OP, which RUU are u trying to use?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Make sure you've got a goldcard then do the downgrade. After that you should be able to do any RUU you like.
Lol just try a different radio. Have you manually set your APN?

Hi dehaani. In order to run the downgrade utility I surely need to be able to access my device (to enable usb debugging ) I currently can't get further than a grey HTC logo with exclamation marks in the corners? Is there a way to downgrade without the need to boot in to a ROM?
I've tried running almost all RUU I can find online, most of them result in Error 140: Bootloader version error.
I can't flash another radio because the only option I have available to me in bootloader is "RUU", no option to restore etc. How do I manually set my APN?! Would this involve access to the phone too?
Thank you all so much for your responses so far, please keep helping.
try again hope good luck
This might have been pot luck on my part getting through to someone who knew their stuff, but I had a problem when flashing Oxygen RC7 to my desire.
I had to ring o2 about another contract I have, used by a family member, and they asked if there was anything else they could help with so I jokingly replied "not unless you know about flashing replacement ROMs..." would you Adam & Eve it, the clever little badger only went and talked me through the issue I had come across on my Desire.
Might be worth giving them a bell if you cant find a solution online, I've always found them very helpful.

[Q] Big problem with htc...

I rooted my phone 6 months ago and 1 month ago it started restarting out of a sudden. Another problem was that it did not turn on the first time, so i had to get the battery out and try again to turn on the phone. When i saw that i decided to upgrade with the official Gingerbread Rom for the Desire. Now the problems started getting more and more serious. My phone remains stuck in the htc logo screen...it does not go into recovery and when i tried installing the initial ruu, to try to take it back to warranty it said that the bootloader version is not good. Any ideas how to solve this problem? I would really appreciate some help...
Maybe providing some info, like bootloader information, phone information....
Current Hboot is 1.02.0001, radio 5.17.05.23 and i wish to install RUU_Bravo_Froy2_UK_2.14.207.1_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_144166_signed. I have tried to install the ROM by puting the rom file from the ruu on the memory card and renaming it as PB99IMG.zip. Once i turn on the phone in hboot, it loads the image and after 3 minutes is says "Main Version is older! Update Fail!". I have also tried to install the ruu by connecting it to the computer and booting the phone in fastboot. It said the current image version is 3.14.405.1 and the version I will install will be 2.14.207.1. After about 5 minutes in the install process it gets stuck in "Updating Signature" and after that the process stops and the following message is shown:
"ERROR[140]:BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR
The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone.
Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again."
I am currently quite desperate..
Your HBOOT is newer than the one you want to flash.
You nned to downgrade it, which means you have to S-Off your device with revolutionary.io AFAIK.
Then flash one of the HBOOTs from alpharev.nl (downgrader) - then you can flash the RUU.

Can you please give me a more detailed instruction of how to do that? Where can i get revolutionary.io AFAIK from and how do i use it? Thanks in advance
Revolutionary (aka alpharev), from here
http://revolutionary.io/
Not sure where you would get an AFAIK, but As Far As I Know, it doesn't actually exist

Can you please tell me how to s-off the phone if the phone cannot start?i tried in fastboot but the software on the computer didn't detect the phone...
You need to be running fastboot in the CMD.exe...
You need to follow the guide for ADB first, then you can use fastboot to flash a new image!

Did you manage to solve it ? I have the same problem , stuck with the boot loop issue after flashing Official RUU 2.3 upgrade. Only have access to fastboot, can't use adb to downgrade.

Yes, I had s-off with alpharev. The problem started with boot loop on alpharev screen. I flashed amoled RUU by mistake and had slcd brick.
Now I have installed the correct RUU but still either get stuck on boot loop or on HTC screen. Wonder if the system partitions are screwed up or if they can be restored without adb or s-off.
i did not manage to do anything. all i want to do is to put back the initial ruu so i can take the phone back to warranty. But i don't know how to downgrade hboot.
can anyone please tell me how can i downgrade my hboot? The biggest problem is that i cannot enable usb debugging because my phone is stuck with the bootloop.

Boot into Fastboot and then run RUU. Setup should see it.
I managed to reinstall the official Android 2.3 RUU but the problem is that i want to install the RUU_Bravo_Froy2_UK_2.14.207.1_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_144166_signed RUU. From what i have been told, i firstly have to downgrade hboot. Can anyone give me some detailed steps of how to do this?
If I were you, I'd S-OFF with revolutionary, flash recovery and flash a ROM.. when you're S-OFF, there is a way to downgrade... I just haven't got time to search now sorry
That's from my understanding that you re-did the 2.3 RUU and your phone now works.. right?
Unfortunately the phone doesn't start now either
but did it work before? have you tried leaving it for about half an hour and tried turning it on again? (I've seen faults like that). If not try the RUU again, then S-OFF - which makes life SOOOOOOO much easier

Hey Guys,

What exactly are you trying to do - downgrade so that you can root your phone? Did you try the AAHK?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1259821
(Make sure you read the manual. )
Hi guys,
Same problem, tried AAHK myself, it won't work, on recovery it goes to a screen with a phone icon, and a red triangle.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

are you trying to go completely back to stock s-on and all or do you just want the old htc sense back? if your trying to get it fully back to s-on the you could try boot into the bootloder and see if the ruu can pick it up from there.
if you just want the sense the you can just flash a htcsense zip file and you will be back at stock, still s-off with your custom recovery
connect your phone, then run RUU - ensure phone is in charge only mode

[Q] hboot 1.03.0003 problem

Hello guys.
As I can see - my problem is unique and almost noone has solved it, but I won't give up.
Okay, let's start from the beginning.
I had stock firmware with 2.29 OS version (no matter to write all the numbers of version, just 2.29). In order to have something newer and with new HTC Sense, I managed to get the Cool3D RunnyMede v7 firmware on my phone.
Like in many tutorials I went on htcdev.com and used to unlocking bootloader. I followed all the steps and finally got the unlocked butloader, but with s-on (I saw no matter on it, as I do now).
Downloaded the clockwork mod, I proceeded to flash my phone, and after some problems I had the custom firmware. Okay, all is good, but what the problem? Problem was that I could not use anything of phone's functions, just had no service. Okay, it was the radio problem. It was caused by that fact that while s-on, I upgrade the firmware but not radio (but it was in archive with firmware too).
Cause I had s-on I had no chance to flash my radio.
S-on was caused by htcdev RUU updater, that made my phone having hboot 1.03.0003.
Now I have no firmware, just clockworkmod 2.5.0.7, s-on and hboot 1.03.0003.
When I try to setup official RUU I have the 140 error, it means that in ROM that I try to set up is lower version of hboot that I have. When I try to replace it on my hboot (extracting it from the hboot updater) I get error 132, it means CID problem, but in android-info.txt in ROM's file I have the same, that on my phone.
Can anyone help me, or I just have to write to HTC Support, and after having no answer break my phone about the nearest wall?..
Check bortak's troubleshooting guide (see my sig).
Thanks, but I've seen it for many times, don't know what can help me...
Maybe goldcard?.. Anything else?
Hi there is a way how to downgrade your 1.03 hboot in resources of bortak's guide or you can find it here
after downgrade you can run revolutionary to get s-off and flash your preferred radio
Hey guy, it looks helpful as nothing I've seen before; thank you; I'll write about the result.
It works.)
Thanks a lot.

S-ON
Bravo PVT4
HBOOT: 1.03.0003
