go to htcdev and find your current software version and when you go to unlocking bootloader you can find hboot update there.
update it and then you can unlocked it.
ps you need to unlocked bootloader first for doing anything like rooting,custom recovery,updating radio,updating hboot(1.09.xx.xx) etc

thankyou!
thanks....actually when i unlocked the bootloader of my WFS,its hboot version was already 1.09...but my friend's WFS was locked by bell...so its verson was only 0.9..i have already updated mine to 4.1.2 btw!

[Q] HBOOT 0.93 UNroot and no idea [solved]

Hello
I got a GSM network HTC Desire and I would like to remove the rooting. It has HBOOT 0.93 and I got no idea how to get rid of the rooting. I used the search, but it does not help me....
I did not need a goldcard to root the Desire with unrevoked3, so I do not know if I need one know... I tried to install RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8_Radio_32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed, but it tells me to get the right utility and gives me a 131 id error.
Could anyone please give me some advice?
Thx in advance.
Try a most recent RUU, this is the last
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe
If ur phone is branded, u will need a goldcard, or install the right ruu from ur operator if u can find it..search on the forum..
EDIT: Remember the RUU will erase all in ur phone..btw why u want unroot? u really need unroot?
I want to unroot it because I want to sell it and people do not buy if you tell them that the warranty is gone because of the rooting.
Btw, the linked update failed with same error, 131 id error.
Some info from the menu:
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-031d
RADIO-5.11.05.14
ROM is Oxygen 2.0 RC6 (Gingerbread ROM)
Error code 131=Customer ID Error.
You need a goldcard to run this RUU. Either do that, or choose the RUU corresponding to ur brand.
RUU_Bravo_Vodafone_UK_1.19.161.5_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126338_signed causes a 140 boot loader version error -.-

Error 140->You're trying to run a lower version than the one on your system now.
There is another thread on the same error with detailed instructions on the method for Vodaphone.. I'll see whether I can find it.
Just run the RUU Eddy mentioned
That's Vodafone UK, plus you'd wanna try 2.33.161.2 if any...

Thanks guys, finally unrooted.
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed worked for me, as the phone is from Vodafone, did I mention that before? If not, sorry...
Nevertheless, great support here! thx a lot.

[Q] Help me guys , cant get THE TOKEN on HBoot 0.90.000

hey guys , my phone specs are
MARVEL PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-0.90.0000
MICROP-0451
RADIO-7.54.39.08M
the thing is , my phone was s-on , then i downloaded the ruu from htc dev , it said that my phone is not supported despite the fact that it was my exact htc arabic phone with exact software numbers , so i found a way on the forum to extract the rom.zip files from the ruu , so i did , and flashed it using sd card , now it says s-off , but i cant get the unlock code token with the htcdev method , the question is , do i still need it? , or can i root and start flashing roms without it? , as i am now s-off?
any help is appreciated guys =)
S-OFF ? then keep it and do not unlock bootloader. S-OFF is worth much more.
There seem to be some combinations of radios and bootloaders that do S-OFF lol
one combination is hboot 0.90.0000 + htcdev radio.

okay buddy , i cant thank you enough , you are a living legend man , it miraculously worked like a charm , and i am now rooted and in the process of finding a new rom , any suggestions? , i am so excited , i waited for nearly 5 months to do that , hell this is long
go to development forum and find the one that suits you, but my choice is CM7 for speed and it is stable enough now make nandroid backup before flashing any rom, you may want to get back to stock later
where?
hey buddy wer did u get the ruu file from to get the specification?
my current specification is
MARVEL PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.90.0000
MICROP-0451
RADIO-7.53.<something>M
i feel if i jus get the radio update i might get an s-off.. i read a similar post somewhere else.. could u please temme the source for ur specification?
In my case yes i did get total s-off from just flashing the radio , to get the ruu , go to htc dev website , do the procedure then choose your version , in my case it was htc arabic , it will provide u with an executable program , open it , and dont use it to do anything , go to your temp folder , and find a folder that says rom1 and another that says rom2 , flash both using your bootloader , if everything is done right you should get s-off
Sent from my Wildfire S using XDA
i did all that.. i even tried updating just the radio and then the hboot manually.. but it says main version is older, update fail!
damn!

[Q] Out of options, please help me (BL unlock problem)

Hi there!
Info about my wildfire s:
Virgin mobile Canada
Marvel PVT Ship S-On RL
Hboot-0.90.0000
Microp-0451
Radio-7.53.39.03M
Android 2.3.5
Guess that's the last resort before i totally give up on that phone.
Here's my situation:
can't seem to unlock my bootloader using Htcdev method whatsoever.
When i type fastboot oem get_identifier_token, i always get:
(Bootloader) [ERR] Command error !!!
From what i have heard and guessed, it means my Hboot is not up-to-date.
(I was stock 2.3.3 btw)
Tried to flash some roms from the "Shipped Marvel roms collection" thread, and i get all sort of errors during the update, basically that the rom is older than mine.
I then resorted to that thread:
"[HBOOT] HBOOT update for EU users who's having problem with RUU":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1432474
It worked...except it only updated the radio, not the Hboot... for the hboot part is only says "bypass", and then offer me to reboot the phone.
I also created a goldcard at some point.
While i can see its virtues, It did absolutely nothing for me.
Of course, i've been reading a lot of threads with problems simillar to mine, but didn't get any working solution out of it.
Here i am, and i sincerely hope someone can help me, because it's one good little phone, i like it, but we all know a device you can't root is a device you can't do much with, sadly.
Thanks a lot for the help!
You have not updated your bootloader to either 1.08.0099 or 1.09.0099 which are HTCdev unlockable.

I know that already.
My problem is exactly that: managing to update my hboot.
have you tried simons wildfire s utility v2 to do the BL-Unlocking? doesn't need htcdev i think...give it a try

have you tried to take the hboot from a htcdev ruu, making a pg**img.zip with it inside and an androidinfo.txt and boot to bootloader to see if it will update? i cannot see why it wont, it shouldnt affect your rom (which will be carrier related) and IS htc signed. you might just get away from with ^^ after that, if it works use simonsimons unlock tool
Thanks Gloris and Heavy_Metal_Man, i'll try both, see how it turns out and report the results.
Didn't work.
To hell with this phone, i've been wasting to much time on this, that's the first time i have so much trouble unlocking/rooting a phone.
I'm done with HTC i believe, that locked bootloader really is a cheap shot from them.
Anyway, thanks a lot for the help, guys.

[Q] Unlock HTC Dev fastboot error while Hboot correct version

Hi all,
I am trying to root my stock HTC desire HD phone using the HTC easy unlock bootloader tool (also tried directly from HTCdev and easy ace root tool).
I get stucked right in the beginning: when trying to get my unlock token i get an error:
[ERR] Command error
I am on build 3.12.405.2
I am on HBOOT 2.00.0027
While searching for a solution I found out that there might be a problem with the HBOOT version (although version above 2.00. should be working, isnt't?), so I tried to update HBOOT. Tried updating with RUU, which gave an error that i was on version 3.12.405.2, while i should have been on version 3.12.405.1, so than I extracted PD98IMG.zip from the .exe and have put it on the root of my SD card, booted in Bootloader, but no update occured.
Now I am stucked and have no idea what to do next,
- should i still update my HBOOT and if so, how??
- is HBOOT not the problem and is there another solution?
Please help, thanks a lot,

The best is to create a goldcard and flash a RUU with a main version supported by HTCDEV. Then update the hboot and finally unlock the bootloader.

Hi All,
finally figured it out:
Fist update your HBOOT 2.00.0027 to 2.00.0029 following the small part in this link: http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f66...-os-s-off-change-imei-cid-hxc-dongle-1548982/
after that: you can continue with unlocking trough HCTdev, than flash clockworkmod recovery, than activate superuser and than go on however you want! (i installed the rom manager app)

thanks a lot Glevitan, i was hoping a would get an answer from you . Eventually i didn't need to create a goldcard, just updating HBOOT using the link in my post above was enough to be able to continue!

That is just fine. But not for everyone..you gain tempo root to downgrade the main version and then flash GB rom. That is a nice move. :laugh:

[Q] Replacing Orange DHD Nand to Vodafone DHD Nand

Hello again
short story
unlocked my bootloader via htc dev, tried every effort but couldnt install recovery on it.
its on 3.13.161.5 and the hboot is .0027
i somehow relock its bootloader thinking to unlock again and then proceed with root privilidge via ahc but failed
each time i tried to push via adb, it comes with err: verifying signature failed etc
cant flash cwm or any other via fastboot
i have nand of my other dhd (on orange)
can i use the nand( of orange) to revert back to stock and then unlock bootloader and flash recovery...?
or
how do i upgrade to .0029 from .0027 Hboot
Simple question but i cant find answer, may be mixed with things, just need some direction to point out...!
cheers

I think you mean downgrade. I don't think you can downgrade you hboot. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I mean back to stock without facing issues with bootloader unlocked
Or if I can upgrade my bootloader
My concern is to flash Rom
The mistake u made causing all this mess is I choose relocked option from ahkit
But it does not shows any on screen message to select relock
However my observation is its only a single thing I am missing
After relock I tried to unlock but err failed message
Can fastboot flash recovery either
And additionally can't proceed with anything other then receiving error signature failed
Some one please direct me towards right direction.....

I don't get what you are trying to do, but if are already unlocked I don't get how you still have 0027 hboot version. Use the links in my signature to find out what the procedure is...
please have a look
also my software build is the higher one(3.13.161.5) i cant find any update at htc developers web
however as i mentioned before you can clearly see the one in attached image
unlocked one is the one i asked you last time to fastboot flash boot image it was originally on orange but left one is on vodafone uk
thanks

I still don't get what you are trying to do. Have you tried one on my tools?? AceRoot or Unlock Tool?

i tried to use the old unlock bin which i generated when i unlocked it via htc developers web (putting in unlock folder)
tried to install via htc developers as well
no luck in root tool, easy unlock tool, ahc tool
i cant understand why this erorr comes every time
