Downgrade and root HTC desire HD - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any method to downgrade and root DHD ?? ver 2.3.5

You don't need to downgrade. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2168500

Maybe he wants to downgrade and gain S-OFF/Root?

S-OFF and root are completely different. S-OFF need skills to gain it at the moment, so probably the best choice is to root unlocking the bootloader.

You said you were S-Off. Like I asked, do you have a recovery?

No i dont have recovery.

Then either fastboot flash a recovery and flash a custom ROM or flash a Superuser app and a su binary. Instructions are in the guide linked in the thread in my signature.

Then I suggest that you read before messing your device up. You are going on the way to do it this way. You are trying to downgrade the main version and other stuff that you don't need to. What you need is to read and find how to do what you are trying.

bodoncel, the Hack Kit is to root and gain s-off. The downgrade procedure there is not for the hboot but for the firmware. It would be find just to find first why he need or wants to downgrade his hboot.

AAHK has already retired. If you take a look at second post (Sticky post) in in this general section, you can see the thread entitled "[How to] ROOT without the Hack Kit".
However, this tools will not provide s-off to you. Only give you privilege to run root and install custom ROM.
You are tech people? Able to reverse-engineered windows files in a few hours? Then this is ADVANCE method to achieve s-off > http://tau.shadowchild.nl/attn1/?p=411

AAHK will not working because the tools is automated to download certain files after it query your phone version info in order to downgrade it accordingly. And these files have already taken down from the server.
Please read the thread carefully in order to understand what the tools is supposed to be doing before run it. :good:

It needs Internet, but more than that, it downloads files from a server that is no longer up. Unlock the bootloader; it's the only easy way right now to get root and recovery, but you won't get S-Off. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2168500

You can use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2169515
Is almost "easy" to follow and you will have your phone rooted.
It is not possible to install a recovery from gg play. You can use another app instead, but your phone must to be rooted before.
The most easy way to install a recovery image is using flashboot, anyway the tool I give you before flash the recovery for you

I'm total noob as well, but i want to start installing other roms on my DHD. I've Searched this forum for several hours, and I found a lot of different ways to root, unlock, radio off and I dont know what more you can do...
The best option for a noob sounds the Easy Ace Root Tool, as suggested in this topic. But what I dont know is what to do after the tool is done...
If I understand well, this tool wil unlock the bootloader, provides root access and flash ClockworkMod Recovery, right?
Can someone give me some information about the next steps?
Thank you in advanced!

Yes, you understand correctly. Next you flash a rooted custom ROM from recovery. You get those from the development forum. After you install it from recovery, you will need to fastboot flash the boot.img from the ROM zip using your computer.
is it enouhg to open the h-boot over the htc-dev page and after this to install maybe twrp for recovery,to flash roms on a desire hd,ofcource with flashing the boot.img with fastboot.Icant find another,actual way to root my DHD?!?

If you're rooted (and with ARHD you should be, unless you removed it) you can install the 4ext updater apk from the 4ext website (google for it). Then, install the recovery from the app.

It'll just get overwritten by 4ext. You don't need to uninstall it.

Now that you're S-OFF, you can install a custom recovery, and use that recovery to flash SuperSU, which will give you root.
