T mobile settings in about phone??

Hey i bricked my T-Mobile desire last night whilst flashing a radio update.
Im gonna send it back for repair or replacement so i flashed the generic T-Mobile rom from the unroot guide on modaco.
In about phone - software information it says
Firmware version - 2.1-update1
Baseband Version - 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2
Kernal version - 2.6.29-0cb9f166 [email protected] #1
Build number - 1.21.405.2 cl174215 release keys
Software number - 1.21.405.2
Can anyone confirm these with a stock, unrooted T-mobile desire please as i don't want them to know i rooted
Did people returning their devices contact HTC directly, the carrier (T Mobile) or their insurance provider?
Thanks

My UK T-Mobile stock desire has a different baseband version ,kernal version, build number and software number.

i think you need to flash:
RUU_Bravo_TMO_UK_1.15.110.11_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_122755.exe
[edit] sorry, i think it's the same rom you already tried flashing.
not sure why it hasn't worked though...
did the flash run ok, with no errors?

Ok, i just tried again and the RUU said
"ERROR [140]:BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR"
I think its because HBOOT is 0.8 and not 0.75 anymore. I dont know what changed it. Iv only flashed a modaco rom, the standard HTC rom by accident, the radio update and the T mobile one.
Is there any way to change back and flash the TMO rom?
Thanks

The stock HTC ROM changed the bootloader to 0.80 - it can't be rolled back

Standard HTC rom is where you went wrong, 1.21.405.2 WWE rom would have updated the bootloader to 0.80 and there's no way to downgrade the HBOOT yet if ever.

Thanks, If i send it to HTC with the stock rom on, would it still void the warranty as its official?
Thanks again

I would've thought not but they'd be able to check the S/N against operators and might find out it's flashed

Thanks for the quick reply.
Iv just spoken to HTC and they're going to take it in for repair, has anyone had any success with HTC repairing a rooted phone?
Thanks

It's not rooted so there shouldn't be an issue - only if they suss it was a T-Mobile one in the first place!
Worst that happens is they send it back saying warranty void

Hope you are successful.
Can someone tell me what radio update refers to?

[Q] Please help with unroot

HELP!
I rooted my phone using unrevoked forever and now that I want it back to stock I'm unable to do so. I have been searching and trying stuff for a week now with no results.
I have a Norwegian (english display language) not locked HTC Desire.
Hboot v: 0.97.0001
I constantly keep getting "wrong bootloader version" (error 140).
I have tried using the method from android modaco com (cannot post link, not allowed )
1 Make sure your goldcard is in your phone (If Required)
2 Turn your Desire on
3 Connect it to a Windows PC
4 Run the HTC RUU
5 Let it run
6 & YOUR DONE!
(without gold card).
I think the problem is that I'm using wrong RUUs, but I cannot seem too find the right one.
Can anyone help me?
PS: If you can supply a step by step guide I would be very grateful. I don't have a lot of experience with this sort of thing.

forgot to mention.
I have s-on

What ROM was on the phone when you first got it?

When I first got the phone was just after release though I don't remember the version. I rooted the phone last week so it hasn't been that long since I last did an update.

Without knowing the version there's no way of knowing what RUU you need. The only thing you can try is:
1. Make a gold card:
http://android.modaco.com/content/software/308798/pc-application-goldcardtool/
2. Downgrade to an earlier HBOOT:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256
3. Flash the latest WWE RUU (2.29.405.5)
http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&so...cZlrId8Dkc9IAPJsg&sig2=QNe-C8tewW0x4cdsO7aCXA
OR
http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&so...IwRiRP-6PYkibAtPA&sig2=OT9aE7a-DDKInlx4lTxTjw

Is there any way to find the version now or am I boned?

There's no way know without having the ROM on the phone

I have only rooted the phone. I have not installed any new ROM though.

Software info:
Android: 2.2
Baseband version: 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
Kernel version: 2.6.32.15
Build number: 2.29.405.2
Software number: 2.29.405.2

Ah, OK!! That's alright then!!
Just download the RUU I linked to up there and do the following:
1. Turn off phone
2. Turn it on holding the back button
3. Once at the white screen with FASTBOOT at the top connect to the PC
4. Once it says 'FASTBOOT USB' (and the drivers have installed) run the RUU
5. Allow it to complete
Job done

Great!
Gonna try it as soon as I have the RUU (slow network connection).
Damn, I can only thank you once
Thanks a million!

The one thing I would double-check is the HBOOT version on your phone - you sure it's not 0.93 and not 0.97?
Only reason I ask is that ROM version (both 2.29.405.2 and 2.29.405.5) both have HBOOT 0.93 in them and you can't flash them if yours is higher

It worked !
The HBOOT version was probably just me misremembering.
Thanks so much!

No worries, keep the RUU safe in case you need it again

Hi,sorry to hijack this thread.i need to clear some doubts abt unrooting,almost similar scenerio.
i think my front speakers are dead.from emiui 12.11 to miui-au 12.24 still not able to resolve the issue.thus need to unroot to stock to see whether it is working there or have to send it for warranty.
The phone originally came with:
Android Version
2.2
Baseband version
32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2
Kernal version
2.6.32.15-gd96f2c0
[email protected]#1
Build number
2.13.707.1 CL233262 release-keys
Software number
2.13.707.1
So my qn is when i see miui-au build no is :MIUI_AU 0.12.24 R2,what's the build no as in 2.xx.xxx??Or miui have their own build?
I have already downloaded RUU_Bravo_Froyo_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.13.707.1_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_143921_signed.exe
can i use this?
Another confusion from me is goldcard.My phone is bought from local carrier(Singtel,SG).does that means it is network branded?
Thanks!

If you're using 2.13.707.1 you should be OK to use that RUU without a gold card. Try it and see

so custom roms have no effect on build no.?
is there any diff running the ruu w or w/o goldcard?
oh..so i should follow the instructions on yr post and run the ruu from bootloader?

[Q] Help me "bootloader corrupt do not reboot"

Help me!
i would like use the tool EasyS-OFF and when i select "Desire HD easy s-off"
i had a message "bootloader corrupt do not reboot"
- ROM: Android HTC Revolution HD 2.0.7
- Recovery: CWM 2.5.1.3
- radio swih s-off
please help !!!

From what i know radio s-off works on 1.32 base roms. But better wait for a more accurate answer.
Sent from my LeeDroided Desire HD

Try the tool again. But as mariosraptor said, you should not run it on custom roms (custom kernel).

I try again but it's same thing
And now the screnn of my DHD is white with this message "Sudden closure of the application HTC sense"

Yep, that is normal, you should have read the thread more carefully. I posted a new version of the tool, which checks a bit more stuff. You should try it. If it gives the same result, you will have to revert to older, stock rom and then run the tool. After you run 0.4 version of the tool, you can reboot.

I try the new tool but it stop with the message "do you have root" and i didn' have message on my DHD.
How to revert to older rom ?

Okay, restore a nandroid backup or use HTC RUU.

I try
Thank you for your help

Thank you i revert to RUU 1.32 and evrything is OK and tool 0.4 work very well
Thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cool
I am glad it worked in the end.

how can I revert to RUU 1.32??? we had the same problem but im on a stock rom. done rooting and radio s-off but failed here in EasyS-off

I'm also on the same situation.
I rooted with visionary. I installed HTC Synced 3.0. Checked on Usb Debugging already. And this was the first time I ran EasyS-off (05). And I ticked on "I have Radio S-OFF". Almost at the end, it say "Bootloader corrupt, Do not Reboot, Seek help from XDA".
Pls help me.

I'm running HTC Stock Rom, I think, no brand.
Code:
Android Version 2.2
Basehand Version 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_M
Kernel Version 2.6.32.21-g66cfb7a | [email protected]#1 | Tue Oct 26 15:58:17 CST 2010
Build Number: 1.32.707.5 CL277010 release-keys
Software Number: 1.32.707.5
Browser version: Webkit 3.1
On the same PC, I ran again, without the "I have radio S-off" box checked, it says "Do you have root?". I ran a gain with the box checked and it says it failed to make changes to bootloader. I unroot (don't know why I did that) with Visionary, it rebooted ok. I rooted it again already. . But a little bit afraid now, cos' I had no experience in rom flashing.
Edit:
Oh my love, I ran it AGAIN, and this time without the box checked. And it said "All DONE".

Same problem as xthierry "bootloader is corrupt, do not reboot. Contact XDA for help"
I used this guide to downgrade from 1.72 to 1.32 software version, then used this guide for trying to flash a custom rom. Radio S-OFF, Super CID from Easy Radio tool v2.2 went just fine. Then started Easy S-OFF_5 and checked option I have Radio S-OFF and pressed S-OFF it! button. This time no acces was required on my phone, and the message "bootloader is corrupt, do not reboot. Contact XDA for help" appeared. I tried again to press S-OFF it! and it said "Error: Connection problem!".
This is most similar post I could find and someone said to run Easy S-OFF v4 but I only can find v5 on site. And I didn't understand exactly what tools should I use in order to restore bootloader to solve the problem in case of broken bootloader.
Thank you very much, you're doing a great job within this community!
Problem solved, I remade the downgrade and I haven't tried again to install Easy S-OFF, cause I don't need to flash any radio, I just wanted to unlock SIM

Glad to see your DHD not bricked

Bootloader Corrupt error
Hi,
I have a HTC Desire HD running Android 2.2 [Build #: 1.32 Software: 1.32] - completely stock out of the box with standard vodafone (australia) rom still installed.
i have run through the steps outlined here
i have rooted using VISIONary and performed the RADIO S-OFF, Super-CID and Sim Unlock section without issue.
When i attempt to run "Desire HD easy s-off.exe" [EasyS-OFF_05] with "i have RADIO S-OFF" box checked, i receive the message "bootloader corrupt, DO NOT REBOOT! Seek help from XDA!" about half way through.
i have attempted running it again and receive "connection error" (with and without the "i have RADIO S-OFF" box selected).
i have downloaded EasyS-OFF_04 and run this but i still receive connection error. USB is definately conneted in charge only and USB debugging is enabled.
i have not yet rebooted the phone as i am not sure if it is safe to do so. any help would be much appreciated. I have not flashed the radio or ROM as i have seen other threads advising that you must have eng S-OFF before flashing the ROM - is this accurate?
i have seen HTC RUU mentioned but im not entirely sure what this is and whether is pertains to my situation.
Again any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.
EDIT: formatted the SD card then rebooted phone ok - continued with rom flashing guide in above link. all is working well.

try looking through this thread - other people have experienced Superuser issues and been ok - I'd pm jkoljo for proper advice
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=855403&page=48
EasyS-OFF_05.zip is the current version, the sw creates a backup of the original hboot ....... sdcard/hboot_original.bin if it did the first post in the thread gives instruction on how to restore it, if there is no backup the original may be untouched

I don't get it.
The 0.5 did not work. But the 0.4 did

Hi here again!!
You should explain your roggers -> Bell simlock problem too.
Maybe you could have some help here too!!!
Does direct flash of a shipped ROM (.exe) could work?
Witch one to choose in this case?

Can't tell if you're asking a question or not.
If a simlock is active, rooting the phone will remove the simlock.
RUU's are only for the DZ, not the G2 (unless you count the very latest G2 update, 2.16.531.6)
Flashing a RUU (the .exe) will flash whatever stock rom is contained in it onto your device, if the version numbers and model id's and cid's all match (if you're S-ON)
if you're S-OFF, any RUU should run on your device, but will remove any custom recovery and eng hboot.
-Nipqer

Initially, my problem comes from the fact that I can't connect to the Bell network, with my phone to buy used, the guy who sale me told that is enlocked, he served under Rodgers before, however I have no message saying that my SIM is invalid when I insert my SIM or another of Telus. I have an X on the antenna, and only wifi works, I have manually configured the APN, replace the SIM, and spend hours to peel forum, Keno40 suggest me to Root, do my question we not sure that was the 1.34 work for1.31 build... excuse me if my text is a little low end, English is not my first language… If you have other idea to resolve my issue it will be great!

[Q] Need help sim unlocking a M8

Hello.
Im trying to SIM Unlock a friends One M8. I've done everything i believe i need to be able to sim unlock it using this guide:
http://www.sieempi.eu/blog/2011/09/22/universal-sim-unlock-for-s-offed-htc-devices-536
And this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708567
I've gotten S-off, super cid, and installed a recovery. But when following the guide in the first link and tapping Sim-lock in the hboot menu i get the messages as you can see in the screenshot ( where you can also see im s-off and with super cid), pressing Vol up seems to do something and reboot the phone, but the device still seems sim locked, as it is showing a "Limited service" when other branded sim cards have been inserted.
Can some of you guys help me out, from what i might have missed ?
EDIT: I figured out that if i downgraded my HBOOT to 3.16 it seems that the sim unlock is partially removed. I now get signal, and data working, but when trying to make any calls i get a "OUT OF SERVICE AREA" message.

Still struggling with this. I've heard that its dependent on my H-boot version, but i'm not sure if mine is the right version or not

OUT OF SERVICE AREA message when trying to call
Hello
Im having some trouble with a mates M8. When he tries to make any calls, he gets a OUT OF SERVICE AREA message and the call is disconnected. If i try to call him, it reaches voicemail. Data on his phone is working fine, and he has strong signal.
Reboot has been tried as well as a factory reset. He is running on stock rom, but the device has S-OFF, and unlocked boot loader.
Can you help us ?

Try downgrading all the firmware files (not just hboot) and even an old ROM; as the radio in particular may be hindering the SIM unlock.
But also be aware that playing with hboot and radio is slightly risky. One of the few ways to really brick the phone.

I have installed a bundle through hboot with a 0P6BIMG.zip file.. This seems to have downgraded everything to the oldest firmware. It is running 1.54 now with Android 4.4.2 and a baseband version of 1.16. Still no luck

Ahh, too bad. I know HTC has made multiple changes over time (including hardware changes) to plug the firewater s-off exploit. Maybe they made some hardware change to plug the SIM unlock method as well?
