Can't root this Desire HD...=( - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have just bought this phone, and i've rooted anothers, but i tried every guide, every tool (all of them no longer working), and not even HTCDev could help me.
On HTCDev's 1st step tells me to upgrade the RUU, and i tried with all versions, none worked out.
Some details of my Desire:
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.00.0027
MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.14.52.27
eMMC-boot
Sep 7 2011,19:06:24
I can't find a guide to get my S-OFF, all of them fail. I tried too with VISIONary+ r14 and keep frozen on black screen when i attemp to temproot.
Followed this guide to get temporary root. Writing on cmd "adb shell" at last step I got "$" and cant do the downgrade. I have made my Goldcard too, but nothing works...
Please, tell me what should i do, i just want RADIO S-OFF and then i will be capable of root or whatever i like =). Thanks to all anyways.

S-Off takes a great deal of skill now that AAHK is retired. You can still unlock the bootloader though.

I'm about to pull my hair out, this is so effing stupid. I keep getting stuck at step 1! I have a goldcard and it still wont update to 2.00.0029! I run the update tool, then when I go to fastboot it still says "2.00.0027" at the top. What am I doing wrong?

Read carefully : the unlockable bootloader update would seam to be region specific to make and model of phone, there are about 4 or 5 different versions on the htcdev website, please check the correct model and region of phone first...
Here's an idea try the PD98IMG.ZIP in this post, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40498764 it is the hboot 2.0.29 update you use via direct bootloader flashing.

[Q] Need help updating Radio

I'm facing problems when updating the radio on my DHD.
Details that appear in the bootloader:

Microp-0438
RADIO-26.03.02.15_M3

oct 11 2010,12:47:02
When I do a adb devices in command prompt(with phone in normal state and not in boot loader) I do get my device listed in the List of devices attached. However when I boot the device and get into the bootloader then Fastboot(in order to update the radio), here i try adb devices in command prompt and my devices does not appear in the list.
C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
I still tried updating the radio
C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools>fastboot flash radio radio.img
sending 'radio' (24832 KB)... OKAY [ 4.056s]
writing 'radio'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 4.056s
Currently I am using CM7-RC0-DHD-PNK20.. could that be the issue. Previously I was able to update the radio successfully when using LeeDrOiD_HD 1.3 but then due some reasons I had to format my PC and reinstalled android SDK..
The radio I'm try to update to is radio_12.28e.60.140fu_26.04.02.17_M2 which I got at LeeDrOiD_HD 1.3 page...
Any help will be greatly appreciated as I understand that the upgraded radio increases the battery life..

You also need ENG S-OFF to flash a radio (you already have Radio S-OFF), and to get that, you need to go back to HTC 1.32 based ROM with preferably stock kernel.

did you follow exactly the instructions?
1. Download attached Radio flash.zip
2. Extract the folder to anywhere of your choice (MINE IS ON THE DESKTOP)
3. Open the flash folder
4.Download the radio you want to use from the links above .Then Drag and drop radio.img you have downloaded in to radio flash folder
5.In the folder press SHIFT + left click and choose 'Open command prompt window'
6. Type: adb reboot bootloader
The adb reboot bootloader will take the device directly to fastboot
7. Once your phone has rebooted in to bootloader screen type fastboot flash radio radio.img
8. Once it done type fastboot reboot
All done
Because everything is done through your pc
It should not show anything in adb devices while your phone is in the bootloader.

[Q] Wildfire S error 155 when running RUU

RUU
Security fail!
Update fail!
The bootloader is unlocked via HTCDEV
The phone is rooted. CWM installed and reinstalled via rommanager
I assume that:
fastboot oem lock
might work to fix the security fail.
Can anyone give me an advice on howto proceed?
After removing battery and reinserting battery, the phone boots normally.

Try to relock your boot loader, with command fastboot oem lock.
Then try to run RUU again.
The error 155 seems fixed.
Now I get an error 131
Suppose it is time to rename the rom.zip I recovered to PG76IMG.zip and try to flash it?
so create gold card and reflash the phone?

I had the same problem, with BL unlocked, you do not need gold card.
extract the rom.zip
Copy:
boot.img
system.img
to your computer Android directory (where you have fastboot and adb, you need to download them)
boot WFS into hboot, mark fastboot, hit power button and attach usb cable
now open a command shell in the computer:
fastboot flash boot boot.img <-- will flash kernel and boot
fastboot flash system system.img <-- will flash stock rom
now go to hboot, factory reset and restart
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1530864 this will help you just click the last option and you will be able to try again and it will work

You need the right hboot version. Since your bootloader has been re locked use aahk to downgrade and then run ruu.

You are S-on so PD98IMG from sd won't work.
Ruu is giving you error because you are trying to update to an older version.
Ruu works only if same version or newer not older.
Conclusion: need to find the right RUU. According to the screenshot you are already on a newer version 3.13.0.0

What I meant is that if the OP was S-Off he could extract the rom.zip (from the ruu that he found) and rename it PD98IMG and eventually upgrade it through OTA .
Being S-On he needs to find the same or newer version of his rom in ruu format which won't be easy probably.

Is usb debugging enabled? are you stuck in the splash screen or the phone is booting normally?
As long as you have not factory reseted the phone, usb debugging should be working. If you factory reseted the phone and you are stuck in the splash screen, then you won't be able to run the Hack Kit. You will need a goldcard to flash a RUU.

[Q] Bootloader Unlock HTCDEV -and alternatives?-

Hi,
I have the following system configuration:
ACE PVT ship S-ON RL
HBOT-2.00.0027
RADIO -26.14.04.28_M
Android ver: 2.3.5
HTC Sense:3.0
SW ver: 3.13.161.3
carrier: Vodafone ES (Spain)
and I would like to root my terminal. I read that, first of all, I have to put in S-OFF mode and the only way to achieve it is using HTCDEV.com bootloader unlock
So, I followed the steps (without updating RUU as I saw I have the last SW version in RUU list) but when i'm going to generate the token, with
"fastboot oem get_identifier_token" it shows "(bootloader) [ERR] Command error !". ( I think the bootloader 2.00.0027 doesn't recognize option "get_identifier")
Should I download the "PD9810000_Ace_Sense30_S_hboot_2.00.0029.exe" from HTC Europe Carrier?
Has anybody tried to install this RUU with same configuration as mine?
Second question. If this RUU works, it performs a factory reset , isn't it? Are there any other alternatives in order not to wipe data?
And Third and last question. Which are the next steps I have to take to root my terminal?
Thx in advance.
You can unlock bootloader with Advanced Ace Hack Kit. First you need it's downgrade, then you will have have HBOOT 0.85 and then it's easy way to get S-OFF. All things will be done automatically by this application
