first of all you need to update your phone version to 2.3.5
go to settings>about phone>software updates
and update software.then your phone will be updated to 2.3.5 as well as your hboot will be updated then you can able to root your phone.
and if you not able to update software do factory reset and then try to update software.(once somone has same problem after factory reset he ll be able to update his software)
good luck

I can't update to 1.21.405.2

Hi,
My device is 1.15 and rooted. When I click "system software update" I'm always seeing checkingin, nothing more.
I want to update my device to 1.21.405.2 but I can't.
What is your suggestions?
Unroot it.
Code:
How to Unroot your HTC Desire to stock
If you Have A 0.75 Bootloader:
Generic RUU Download / Mirror #1
T-Mobile UK RUU Download
o2 UK RUU Download
3 UK RUU Download
If You Have A 0.80 Bootloader: Download
Other RUUs Avalible Here
You will need:
1. HTC Sync (For Drivers)
2. The Download Above
3. A Windows PC
4. A Goldcard (Not required for generic HTC Desires)
The Guide:
1. Make sure your goldcard is in your phone (If Required-if your phone is branded)
2. Turn your Desire on
3. Connect it to a Windows PC
4. Run the HTC RUU
5. Let it run
6. & YOUR DONE!
Okey, I understood. But which file I must the download for 0.75 or 0.80. My boot version is 0.75.
Apparently the 1st version for 0.75 bootloader, you didnt tell if your Desire is unbranded or not, so if it is, the 1st link.

I don't know what is unbranded. I bought this phone from Germany. Before I rooted I was see T-Mobile logo. After root I see HTC logo. My friend ordered for me and I think he will pay 24 month to T-Mobile Germany. Is that mean branded?
In this case which version is good for me?. I rooted this device one week ago and I tried make 1.21 OTA update but I couldn't. Phone was say: "There is no any update". I dont want to see this meassage again after unroot.
Thanks for reply.
Im not sure, maybe someone else can confim that, but it seems that yours is T-mobile branded. Im not aware though, what and if there is a difference in UK vs German version (if in the UK version the german language is missing for instance).
I don't know what t-mobile is doing, but vodafone users only got a 1.19 update OTA! So no 1.21 in germany I think. Is it not possible to unbrand the phone and install one of these RUU updates from htc? Check this in dev forum
I downloaded this:
If you Have A 0.75 Bootloader:

I will do unroot, after that I will try to take OTA 1.21 update, if can't I will try manuelly do RUU 1.21 update. I hope I don'tl corrupt the phone.
Just to be in the safe side, it's best practise to perform a Nandroid backup in Recovery Mode beforehand, which you can later restore if anything does go wrong with the flash.

Ok, nondroid is okey. I did unroot, and I saw a popup about system update
Now, I'm downloading BL 0.80 files to make again unroot but I confuse, should I do again goldcard process? I did already one time before..
Yes, you will need to use the same Gold Card to flash RUU files with a different CID to your own device.

So, I have a rooted Desire with stock 1.15 fw. If I want to upgrade to stock 1.21 fw I must unroot, then install the upgrade and re-root, isn't it? But if I'll follow this sequence will I lost every application that is on the phone now? Maybe it's better waiting for Froyo or installing a modded fw?
Well i downloaded offical updated and did the updated manualy because i also did not get updated via phone
Something goes wrong.
1. I have unrooted and did OTA 1.21 update.
2. I checked bootloader version. It's 0.80
3. I have unrooted again with 0.80 and 1.21 version.
4. After that I checked sw version it was 1.15 again
5. Again I did 1.21 updated and after reebot I checked again 1.15
I can download and install OTA 1.21 update many times, but still same. What is wrong?

[Q] Cannot update HBOOT for wildfire S

So new release on HTVDEV to support Wildfire S. I downloaded PG7610000_Marvel_hboot_1.08.0099_20111216 and ran. The software finds my phone, reboots but fails to update the HBOOT.
It finds image version 1.34.110.3 and offers to update to 2.17.0.0
The update process starts and reboots into bootloader but then returns
ERROR [190]: ROM IS NOT UPDATED
Your ROM version is not the latest version. Please upgrade to 2.14.110.1 to apply this RUU to be able to unload your bootloader
I need to update my phone first. Check for the new on the phone.
On your phone go to Menu > Settings > Software version > Check now.
I have tried this and it tells me everything is up to date.
My phone is running 2.3.3 Android, HTC Sense 2.1
Any ideas or have I mis-understood the HTC unlock process?
download the htc ruu .zip file and flash it in the bootloader and then do d remaining steps,press the thanks btton
Nope, you need to update your phone, to 2.3.5 .
Guess you operator didn't released it jet, but you can find in wildfire S general topic that helps you upgrade you phone before your carrier can offer you and its totally legit update from HTC.
Name of the topic is [TUTORIAL][S-ON][GSM][HOWTO] Upgrade to 2.3.5
Its just the question of which WFS you have, is it branded or not, from where are you and such.
Hope I help a bit.
And say thank to the guys that made it possible
I havent managed to test using the goldcard method as my SD card doesnt seem to like it. It tells me I need to format the card. Hey ho.
Anyway T-Mobile say they are releasing the 2.3.5 update between 5th and 16th so I'll wait and see if this turns up. I have checked manually but nothing yet.
I'll give gogy the thanks as I think he's right.

Is easy to do that you need to tyoe in google htc unblock
you can search and find the htc unlock i dont remmeber the name, you go there you need to sign up and choose you phone later you need to follow every step, and later is ready to make root, you need to download the new ruu choose eu ruu

[Q] RUU 4.08.605.2 Update Problems

I have a virgin HTC Incredible that I was hoping to unlock and root. Never been touched before. Following the guide on HTCdev, to unlock my bootloader, I need to update to 4.08.605.2 from 4.08.605.19 that I'm on now. I downloaded the RUU and HTC Sync to get the drivers. Everytime I run the RUU, it will run through the program like normal, but the update won't work. The program says that it was successful, and the phone reboots, but it has not updated or even been reset. The program runs through this cycle in about 30 seconds. I have searched all over the threads for this but I can't seem to find a solution anywhere. Hopefully someone has a solution.
Thanks,
Evhoch

Have you tried just unlocking via HTCdev and not worrying about your firmware version? As long as HBOOT is 1.02 or newer it should work. 4.08.605.2 is older than 4.08.605.19 so it's normal that a locked stock phone will not downgrade.

Nope I haven't. 4.08.605.19 is newer? It went down in numbers? My HBOOT is 1.02 so I will definitely try this tonight. On the HTCdev site it says to use the .2 or newer so you can see how I would assume .19 is a version older. Thanks for your help.

Not really. What you're probably not getting is that those aren't the only two versions. And...
19 > 2

Need help updating phone... H3G User.

Im on the same version of Android since i got the phone, the bootloader is unlocked with S-ON and it has been working fine since i got it. I heard 5.1 had been released, is there a H3G RUU for the new version or can i use the Europeon one.. my CID Num is H3G__001.
Because i am rooted it says it cant check for updates, can anyone tell me what i can do?
I thought about restoring the original software RUU and then updating, but what if my service provider hasnt released the update, unless their is another H3G M9 user on the forum who can tell me different.
Thanks.

Your best bet is to S-OFF, then Super CID. After you have done that just restore the newest WWE RUU. That way you're on the latest version and can continue to receive any new updates a lot sooner - none of that waiting for the network to release the update. Especially with marshmallow round the corner.

Are their any other ways of doing it without S-Off?
Thanks

Other than the way you stated not really. If you don't want to go S-OFF then you'll need to restore stock and update, then root again.
Hey there buddy.
What the chance you backed up your stock H3G recovery.
I flashed TWRP and forgot to take a backup, now can't flash the update.
I posted in this forum asking in anyone had the UK H3G stock recovery but no answers.
Cheers.
Greg
