My htc specifications are Hboot version 1.02.000 unable to downgrade to 1.01.000 unable to root S-off
can any one help me out trying for 3 days but found no clue

Try this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1365159
It will give you full root
If you still struggle with it then there is another option.
Go to htc dev . Com and unlock your bootloader
After that, you can flash a custom recovery etc
But your 1st priority should be the above post

Thanks for your help!

Turn phone off
Hold volume down and boot up into bootloader
Tell us what top two line on that white screen with skating androids says.
And post in q and a next time.
First of all this would belong in the question and answer forum. This is THE method to use. Looks like you will need access to another PC then.

yeah well you were following the right guide.
did you check your device manager while phone is plugged in to make sure drivers are all set?
maybe try the universal root by xHausx
he says it should work with 2.02 now.
just follow all instructions slowly. everyone has had success with the guide your first started to use.
let us know what you get. and always be very descriptive. Must explain everything in detail to get the best help.
Hey guys I was having some trouble with that too, I had rooted using unrevoked and unrooted with the s-on tool and a PC36IMG, I tried going back to root with the original method but the modified USB driver was already installed and unrevoked wouldn't work.
Don't ask me why but I accepted the OTA update and now trying to root with the method linked to above gives me an error at the last line of step 4, telling me rageagainstthecage cannot me found.
I was just wondering if there's any hope??? I'll take any root method you can suggest.
PS the root and unroot guides I used were from the droiddemos.com but evidently I cannot link to them until I reach 8 posts.
ive tried atleast 5+ different rooting methods but cant seem to get it.. i rooted my samsung moment easily as well as others but when it comes to this evo i cant do it.. i bricked it 2 times and to the point where i couldnt even flash the stock ruu anymore but luckily it was only 2 days since buying it so i was able to do a brand new swap and now i have my new evo #2 and havent touched it yet unless i got a fool proof rooting method.. Im not trying to go thru the bricking of this one to.. any input is thankful

[q] rooting htc desire 2.2 froyo hboot 1.06

Just thought I would make a new thread on here so someone could help. I have searched for HOURS trying to find a why and even tried combining some methods with the same end result. :-( Surely between us... "the world wide web" we can find a way. I'm not a genius but I learn very quickly. Any help is greatly appreciated. So far it says it can't be done, but I have faith that we are better than that. So what do you think?
My desire has the updated android 2.2 with the new hboot 1.06 not rooted and s-on.
hi there,
head over to http://revolutionary.io/ and s-off your device, (make sure you have USB debugging selected in settings on your phone, and when asking for your beta key select: Desire CDMA, and select your 1.06 hboot), then download the superuser from http://goo-inside.me/superuser/su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip and flash that in recovery
if you need any help pm me
I have tried that. One of the requirements is that it must be rooted. I can not root my phone using Revolutionary because it is not supported yet. You can S-off the desire Hboot 1.06 but I cannot find ways to root and you must be rooted before you s-off to my knowledge. Please correct me if I am wrong. I will try again though. Thank you.
Unrevoked 3 runes through everything PERFECT until the very end. It says Desire was a TRIUMPH and under that then states "internal error nand root?" I just want to root this so i can flash and install cyanogen 7.
Your device does not need to be rooted to run revolutionary,and it is supported I checked
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
When I do that it gets stuck at waiting for fast boot.......
done.. had to do it a bit tricky but good to go now. fully rooted with s-off running cyanogen 7.0.3

[Q] Unrevoked 3 program get”s stuck at "Waiting for root...

Unrevoked 3 program gets stuck at "Waiting for root...”
I have been trying to root my device for last 3 days .I have done enough research and gone through various forms .
Following the guide ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145035 ) successfully got my device S-OFF using Revolutionary .
In step 2 : according to guide downloaded and tried
“RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.14.405.2_R_Radio_13.45.55.24_3 .35.15.31_release_130814_signed_2”
Got stucked with non-working touchscreen.
Again downloaded and tried “RUU_Buzz_Froyo_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.24.707.1_Radio_13.5 5.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_161113_signed”
Now touchscreen is working but it is showing android 2.2.1 again .So what's the point of downgrading ?
Run Unrevoked and it is unable to gaining root.
It shows :
Running preboot seq….
Waiting for reboot…..
Running root…
Waiting for root…..( I have waited for 20 mints but it keeps saying this)
[ USB debugging is enabled
Usb drivers are installed
Android Bootloader Interface is listed under Android Phone. ]
After all this mind boggling i have reached here :
Android 2.2.1
Revolutionary
BUZZ PVT SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.01.1002
MI CROP-0622
RADIO 3.35.20.10
Should I use different version of unrevoked ? 3.31 ? here..( http://theunlockr.com/2010/09/20/how...evoked-method/ )
But again in guide “androidybloidy” says in step 3 :”Download the test version of unrevoked (here). Let me repeat, DO NOT USE UNREVOKED 3.32 as it will lead to CID errors or to be precise this error
"Validation error, backup CID is missing".”
What to do now ? Do I need to downgrade to 2.1 éclair to use revoked ? Do I need to download Éclair RUU for India ? If “yes” where can I get the download link ? Some forums say I don’t need to if I have already got S-OFF.I am totally lost.
Now I feel like tearing my hair out.
Any ideas ? How can get around it?
Any help would be appreciated.Thanks in advance.
I wanted to try the method suggested by “3xeno” on #83
http://joel5121.blogspot.com/2011/06...-tutorial.html
but under “clockwork recovery” the link to “fastboot tool “ redirects to http://htcdev.com/ and there is no tool like “fastboot tool” on that page.Again the download link to “recovery for wildfire”in step 4 is broken.
What should I do ?
Should I follow this ? : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1130044
Is there a way out ?
feel like throwing my HTC out the window:confused:
SOLVED
Finally installed ClockworkMod recovery and Rooted the device.
are you trying to put a custom rom on the phone or just root it? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12188132&postcount=15 follow this guide to put a custom recovery on it, follow method 2.
now, if your going to flash a custom rom just do this from your new recovery and your new rom will have been pre rooted. (well, it should be ) if not then im pretty sure that there is a flashable superuser zip that will give you root once you`ve s-offed but i cant remember where i saw it but i think tht would be youe best bet without having to downgrade again.
how did you make it work cause im having the same problem
yeah if you said its working how did you make it work :was it using the non-test version or did u try something else
If you want to de-brand (downgrade Hboot from 1.01.0002 to 1.01.0001), root or flash I have a comprehensive guide to do that
It's in my sig
Hey dude,
How did u finally resolve that?
I'm stuck at "waiting for root" .
HTC wildfire.
Thanks in advance!
I´ve used the unrevoked 3.32 and it worked perfectly.... Maybe you should give a try.

[Q] Trying to us CM7 on wildfire: Help needed after unlocking bootloader (htcdev)

Hey folks,
I've been trying to get CM7 to work on my HTC wildfire, and am running into some trouble. Here's what I've tried:
I started with this howto on the CM wiki. The step which uses revolutionary failed because my HBOOT version was not supported (1.01.002 apparently, while revolutionary only supports 1.01.001).
I found another thread that said HTC was letting you unlock your bootloader, so I went ahead and did that. My bootloader does say "UNLOCKED" at the top, but apparently that does nothing.
I then proceeded to try the ROM Manager, but since the phone hadn't been rooted, it wouldn't work. I tried the unlocker method which fails with an error "could not root, is your firmware too new!?". I think the HTC unlock step may have caused this.
I'm therefore stuck. Would anyone know how I could use the CM7 at this stage? I've seen both the howtos that this forum provides, but since my HBOOT isn't 1.01.001 or 1.01.002 (its 1.2.000 or something after the HTC unlock thing, they don't apply to me.
Any hints will be greatly appreciated. My phone is currently back to factory settings after unlocker, but that's all.
I am a new member and therefore am unable to post any links to the pages I followed. Sorry.
Thanks!

Need Help on HTC Desire 520 ROOTING, S-OFFng and SIM UNLOCKING

Hello everyone I'am in kinda need of help
You see I tried to simunlock my desire 520 which leads me to various sections and posts in this sub.
Through reading I found out that first I need to S-OFF my phone to be able to do that (and root)
the thing is all what I found on the sub are the following:
1. To S-Off my phone it has to be rooted or
2. To root my phone it has to be S-Offed
which is neither of the two I have and is confusing me on how to get it done.
Also I read somewhere that HTC Desire has HBoot but mine don't have.
On the boot loader (white screen thingy) there's nothing there that states the HBoot version although I found some here which guides me on how to install HBoot but the thing is. It is for Froyo or will make my Android version to Froyo (Im on 5.1 that's why im unsure if it is okay or not).
Well all what I really need is to Sim Unlock my phone if there is other way around or someone could guide me itwould really be a great help! Thanks and more power to you peeps!
