hi need some help - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi im new to the desire hd forums and im stuck on downgrading from gingerbread 2.3.5 sence 3.0 i dont no if its the updated 2.3.5 or came shipped with 2.3.5 i bought the hanset with that stock rom so ive created a gold card and yet i still cant downgrade with the pg98.img thing and i cant unlock bootloader root or anything with easyaccsesroottool any help would be great im normaly good with this stuff but ive hit a brickwall

Downgrading and gold cards are for AAHK (or for manual S-Off). AAHK is retired, so unless you want to S-Off manually, you should unlock your bootloader instead. What error messages did you get with the Easy Ace Root Tool (which is an unlock tool, not an S-Off tool)? What does your hboot say? Also, please use more understandable punctuation and capitalization. It makes it easier for us to understand, and therefore help, you.

2.0 is not an hboot version...it might be 2.00.0029 or 2.00.0027 but not 2.0. If your Build version is not supported at the moment, then you should create a goldcard and flash a ruu which build version is supported as stated in the OP of the tool.

Im on 2.0.0.0.27 so just a gold card and latest ruu?

I'm yet to read this method in dhd forums....
Here's a little trick I learned over in legend forum (thanks to blay0), from the downloaded exe file, run it, then find the Rom.zip file extracted to temp folder.
Rename Rom.zip to PD98IMG.ZIP put it in root of sd card, reboot to bootloader, should then want to update system just say yes.
This is the method I updated my dhd hboot. No need to go through all the nonsense that ruu does

Did you create a goldcard and update your bootloader like glevitan said? You can't unlock until you have a bootloader that supports unlocking.

i dont even no wich stock rom to use for the upgrade i no about goldcard but wich stock rom please help

Just use the latest unbranded one. If you have a goldcard you don't need to find your phone's specific one.

Already s-off,that‘s why the cid is 11111111
the manufacturer off the phone by a machine,and changed the cid ro 11111111。somebody said the manufacturer locked the hboot。
nobody know?
and this phone on the fastboot screen ,we can not see bootloader
You could always try the xtc clip. That can usually do the job. And what hboot does the phone say?
Does it say LOCKED at the top?

no
because the hboot is 1.080000,if the hboot is 1.080099 on the top can see locked,but we can not to update to it,when put PG76IMG to the sdcard,
no update information.and this phone we can't use the ADB command,because the bootloader is not unlocked.

How to Obtain 2.3 RUU From HTC Developers Site

Well, I wrote this a couple of times and it gets more boring every time. Also, the link in Bortak's guide is not working so if someone needs it here you go:
-go to HTC developers site
http://htcdev.com/
-go to KERNEL SOURCE CODE section
-configure filter by DEVICE (choose Desire)
-mark OTHER below
-click on FIND FILES
-and there you go, the first file is 2.3 upgrade utility.
Not that hard?
Hi, can this be pushed directly to the phone ? and how ?
sure I'll lose root permission and S-OFF Right? . sorry for the stupid questions I'm a noob -- first baby steps

You need to extract the exe from the file. The exe is buried two levels deep in a zip.Thereafter run the exe from PC with the phone connected. But before you run the RUU ensure your phone is stock hboot. If it is a alpharev hboot then flash the downgrader hboot from alpharev.nl. Thereafter the "unlock" will appear on bootloader. Then you can run the RUU. You will lose root and soff after RUU.
If you want to again root after this then you have to follow the steps given in revolutionary.io.

No its a direct link to the download from htc
I have just found my old HTC Desire (GSM) again.
Now I would like to install an Android 4.4 or 5.0 Rom on it, but for this I have to S-OFF it and install a custom recovery on it.
Is it still possible? As the most tools are down? And if yes, could someone give me the needed links etc? Thanks.

The size or speed aren't the issues. As far as I understand, your sdcard has a corrupted boot partition, which can occur when it's improperly unmounted. This prevents it from being a goldcard. A goldcard lets you flash RUUs with a different CID from yours. In this case, it would let you flash the downgrade.

No....corruption of the boot partition is due to bad habits such as pulling sdcard without proper dismounting it. You can not fix that.

NEW sdcards?? A different one is not good enough. Bad habits are hard to eradicate. Get a new one and make sure that you dismount it correctly.
I didn't really get the problem anyway u can try 2 things before u get the new sd
1: get the downloaded ROM from ur aahk folder and past it on the root of ur sdcard then get into the hboot and the phone should search and find the ROM and prompts u whether if u want to flash ths ROM or not
2: u can download the needed RUU using ur pc and the let the RUU finish everything
I hope that i provided useful and simple info....

How on earth is he going to flash a RUU on a corrupted sdcard? If you have a bad sdcard and therefore you can't make a goldcard then is useless to try to flash a ruu from fastboot. It will let you stuck on a downgraded rom with no root or S-OFF.

[TUTORIAL][S-ON] Upgrading / Downgrading your HBOOT and radio

Update 2: I've removed all the Method 1,2,3,etc. and added one universal method instead. Advanced, risky one kept.
Update: I've improved the thread, added pictures and what not. Hope you all like it now.
I'm not responsible if your phone blows up, bricks, sd card malfunctions or whatever during this tutorial!
Prerequisites:
A Locked Bootloader
RUU of the radio and / or HBOOT you want.
ADB installed
HTC Drivers
Goldcard (Steps at the end of the post)
Alright, then let's begin.
Download the Bootloader Control tool from this thread. (Thanks theq86!)
Put the zip on the root of your SD card.
Reboot into recovery and flash it.
A Menu-type thingy will appear. It will show you 4 options:
Unlock Bootloader
Lock Bootloader (Guarantee Mode)
Lock Bootloader (Relocked State)
Supervision
Now, what you have to do is, choose either the 2nd or 3rd option.
Then say "NO" to reboot. Go back to the main menu of CWM.
Advanced > Reboot Recovery.
It'll reboot the recovery and get you the main menu again.
Again go back to the bltool and this time, choose supervision.
After that, reboot back to the bootloader and into fastboot.
Download and get the latest RUU, that contains the newest radio and hboot: http://www.4shared.com/zip/gsk9viET/RUU_Marvel_S_Vodafone_UK_22616.html
Let the RUU do its job. After everything's done, your phone will reboot. (You will be factory reset, of course.)
And you'll have the latest Radio and HBOOT.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ADVANCED!:
Instead of using the RUU, if you just want the radio and nothing else, follow these steps:
This is not tested by me and I am not responsible if your phone blows up, bricks, etc.
Let the RUU open up till the I agree screen. (Picture above)
Now, open up task manager (Ctr-Shift-Esc / Ctrl-Alt-Delete) and go in "Processes".
Find a process called ARUWizard.exe. Right click and "Go to location".
You'll find a bunch of files and a rom.zip inside. Copy it to wherever you want, rename it to PG76IMG.zip and put it on the root of your SD Card.
Then reboot your phone to bootloader. If all goes well, it will tell you its flashing. It will first flash the HBOOT and radio. Then, it will reboot.
**PULL OUT THE BATTERY WHEN YOU WILL SEE THE RECOVERY SCREEN AGAIN AFTER 1st RESTART (NOT SOONER!) **
And if everything was good, you wouldn't have lost your data, and you would have the latest HBOOT and Radio.
Thanks to Yasounet for this.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO MAKE A GOLDCARD:
Use this to create one: http://www.mediafire.com/?hdxoe6e5km434tb
If you want to know when the SD card should be in the phone and / or in the reader, do this: (Refer to the Steps when you start the SimpleGoldCard software)
Step 1 of Software - SD should be in an SD card reader OR Set the phone in disk drive mode.
Step 3 of Software - SD should be in the Phone OR disable disk drive.
Good luck and Happy Flashing!
SomeDudeOnTheNet said:
Okay. Typing this out from my phone, so I'll make this quick. Sorry, but I'll elaborate when I'm on the PC.
So here's the steps to upgrading your HBOOT and radio.
1 - Lock your bootloader again by the following cmd: fastboot oem lock.
2 - Download and get the latest RUU, that contains the newest radio and hboot: http://www.filefactory.com/file/7c4...5.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed.exe
3- Start up the RUU till its on the I agree and crap screen. Ctrl-Shift-Esc. Hit the processes tab and search for ARUwizard.exe.
4- Right click and go to location. You'll see a bunch of files and a Rom.zip.
5 - Make a goldcard and just copy the rom.zip leaked from the RUU changing its name into PG76IMG.zip. Reboot to the bootloader.
6 - If everything went well it will detect the .zip, load it and then ask you to install it. First it'll install hboot and radio, then it'll automatically reboot and flash the entire updated system, boot, etc.
7 - If you still have your unlock_code.bin from htcdev, just reboot into bootloader, on fastboot mode, and just type: fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin.
8 - It'll ask you unlock your bootloader, say yes, and then it reboots.
9 - And that's all, now you can reinstall again another recovery and flash then the rom that you want or restore and backup
I'll update this thread with pics for y'all tomorrow. My hands are paining now.

For the 2nd question:
The RUU doesn't go ahead if you have an unlocked bootloader. Since these are supposed to be used on official roms, they require a locked bootloader. At least that's what I think.

Yeah, let it do its job, don't do any PG76IMG thing.
With method 2, will it wipe anything off my phone?

Everything after 2.13 is already unlockable. Skip the RUU step and move ahead.

HTC One X Walkthrough anyone?

First and foremost, please know that I have searched and searched again for hours and really have exhausted what in my opinion is my skill level for the rooting process. Previously hacked a PSP but that seemed easier than this.
I have tried the one click method and I have tried the HTCDev method. Both to no avail. I've run the .bat, I've tried the cmd cd Download cd OneXRoot... I couldn't get the One click .exe to run on my Windows XP even after installing .net framework. Can anyone help? I will divulge phone software versions, firmware etc if anyone decides to help me... And please only comment if you can specifically help... No trolls, no haters, no unconstructive comments.
Sorry for the noobism...
Thank you.

hi , try using this it should be what you need if you are going to flash custom rom's go to htc dev to unlock bootloader thats the first and foremost thing you need to do . Htcdev is just to unlock your bootloader and nothing else

if i helped you say thanks =)
What issue are you currently having with 'HTCDev'? Did you successfully unlock the bootloader?
Try checking this post out:

Hope that helps
I promise you all those methods do not work. I tried to run the root.bat access denied. I tried the one where you open up cmd and type cd Download, access denied... Finally I tried One Click but the .exe wouldn't open due to wrong .net framework, which I then downloaded but I was told by XP was not able to install 4.0.3...
Obviously I am going to need a work around on this but like I say One Click is no good for me... I'm going to reply again with my phone's info... I'm guessing the cmd way will be best to eventually get to work for me...

have you got your unlocktoken.bin from HTC Dev? May be best to do it manually

have a careful read through this, this is the most complete guide for rooting manually, if you don't want to backup to start with you can go straight for unlocking your bootloader (after that to installing the recovery, then to installing the rom )

I think you can resubmit and get a new unlock token,
Yes goin to try that again... If it works this will give me root right? Not sure the diff between root and flashing custom...

If I do this and unlock the downloader will it give me root too?

Hi mate, firstly u need to install the SDK etc,
Then you unlock your bootloader
Then you can install the custom recovery
Then you need to install the super user app (or SU etc) This will give your rom Root privileges (i.e you can install mods etc) This is not installing a custom rom
If you want to install a custom rom you can skip the step above as all custom roms have these root privileges.
Download your rom and stick it on your SD card
Make a backup through the custom recovery (you can revert back to stock if things go tits up)
Boot into fastboot and flash the boot.img via fastboot commands (or use a fastboot kit if one is supplied with the rom)
Go into recovery, flash your rom and reboot
The above is just summarizing whats on the guide I gave you so you should know what order you need to do things and where to look on the guide
If I do this and unlock the bootloader**** sorry predictive text!
