Use revolutionary. You have guides in the desire index in the dev section.
If you have a brain, then you won't brick your phone.

[Q] Unroot Erasesize 40000 Desire

Hello again XDA,
since I suddenly really need the money I spent on my Desire today for family reasons, I want to return it tomorrow
It's a German 2.2 Froyo Desire, unlocked, T-Mobile branded, stock ROM.
Nothing done to it besides running unrEVOked, which rooted the Desire and flashed a useless Clockwork recovery. Useless because it's a Erasesize 40000 Desire and everything in Clockwork gives an error.
I looked for RUUs but I haven't found anything regarding German T-Mobile ones...
Here's the info from the stock ROM:
Android version: 2.2

Erasesize 40000
So how can I safely unroot it?
It's really urgent, any help is greatly appreciated!
there isn't any german T-MO RUU. if you want to return it your best chance is to try to downgrade by using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=832659
and then try to obtain the OTA by checking for new updates.

its like sprint it does not have smart chip. just and sd card slot insane where u put the battery
Sorry for my English English is not my main language Neither is Spanish
I'm Half Japanese.
The reason why the roms do not work is because you have a cmda device. Most of the roms here are gsm. You should look in the Desire Index thread for cmda roms. In the future, never flash a gsm on a cmda and visa versa, it could seriously brick your device.

[Q] Rebranding from WWE

Hi,
I know there are topics solving the similar problems but I decided to create a new thread because I've never found an answer for me...
I have my desire originaly from T-Mobile from the Czech republic and I've debranded it to WWE (2.29.405.2) and HBoot is 0.93.0001. Now my desire restarts quite often so I want to get it for warranty repair but I have to get TMO software. I'm really not familiar with all the stuff about the flashing etc. I provide this info:

Android: 2.2,

Build number: 2.29.405.2 CL263770 release-keys,
Software number: 2.29.405.2
I already know when I want to use RUU to change soft with the same third number (405, otherwise I get error 140??) but I need to load TMO with the third number 110. How I can achieve that? Is there any posibility to return from WWE to TMO brand? Tnx
ADD: I've tried RUU:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_TMO_AT_2.12.112.1_Radio_32.46.00.32U_5.10.05.17_2_release_143754_signed.exe
RUU_Bravo_TMO_UK_1.21.110.4_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_127570_signed.exe
x.xx.110.x is T-Mobile UK and the only RUU to leak is that one you've linked above. you might have to downgrade to a lower HBOOT to get it working (and that RUU is for AMOLED screens only)
Tnx. So I have to find out how to downgrade to 0.83 (the original state) and I don't know if I have AMOLED or not. There was a tutorial by comparing the background of my display to black but still don't know. Is in the phone any other clue to get know what type of a display I have?
ADD: Hmm, I think I have SLCD because when I changed the rom for the first time, display left black after starting.. so maybe this is the clue
ADD2: Should I use this guide to downgrade or this is not the golden path? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256&highlight=revoke
Only US customers use CDMA - if you have a SIM card you're GSM
yep, I've already read it and now performing downgrade... we'll see.
ADD: Android: 2.1-update 1,
Baseband version: 32.41.00.32U_4.08.00.09,

Build number: 1.21.405.2 CL174215 release-keys,
Software number: 1.21.405.2
HBoot 0.83.0001
Should I try use RUU to load the TMO rom now?
How I can realise if the RUU is for AMOLED or SLCD? Now I have a simple quest: load a T-Mobile rom for a SLCD display...
The reason that works is due to it being OK with SLCD screens, the T-Mobile RUU might flash now but you may end up black screening your handset

But when I bought the phone it was branded T-Mobile. Ok, what should I do to load it and be ok with the highest probability?
Nothing you can do, there isn't a newer RUU leaked from T-Mobile UK

I decided to use the one from AT and it works so I have TMO soft in my phone and ready for warranty repair. (hope)

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".

[Q] Questions about debranding and rooting

Hello,
I recently got a Wildfire S A510b which is branded. (It says Telstra and Next just after HTC screen on boot-up and has a TelstraOne app which is what I suppose branded means, right?)
When I load up the bootloader this is what shows up:
MARVEL PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.03.0000
MICROP-0451
RADIO-7.46.35.08

It's running Android 2.3.3 with HTC Sense 2.1
Build number: 1.52.841.2 CL72061
Baseband version: 47.10.35.3029H_7.46.35.08
Kernel version: 2.6.35.10-g105f9bd
With this, would I be able to debrand my phone and then update to 2.3.5 and finally root it?
I saw this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1142529
Would this work? Seems like the ROM is a European one but I have Australian phone. I also saw there was a more recent ROM:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...5.3032H_7.49.36.01M_release_209754_signed.zip
Would this be better and is it 2.3.5?
Thanks in advance
