[Q] Three UK latest Desire rom

Hi,
Please if someone has a Three UK branded Desire phone could make me a nandroid rom backup? I cant find any stock Three UK rom only old one for AMOLED screen and i have to send back the phone.
Details:
BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
Thank you!!Please help me guys!

Nandroid would still be rooted so would still be breaking the warranty. Better to use a stock unbranded RUU tbh

hi
i tried to install the rom but i get a [140] Bootloader version error message.
what can i do?have to downgrade the bootloader?
thx
EDIT: i solved the problem.I had to downgrade the rom and after worked fine.
Thanks for everything!!

hi killerno
can you just clear up, when you got this to work, you had to downgrade the bootloader (not ROM) ?
i have literally just got a new desire from 3, and rooted and did a nandroid backup before putting oxygen 2.0 on it, and when i checked, my backup was gone! currently im not concerned, but obviously if i ever need to send the phone back ill need to do the same as you, and i have tried to install this rom and it failed as well, so just interested as to your exact steps if you dont mind?
thank you in advance

Downgrade following this guide:

Then run the RUU posted on the prevous page

thanks EddyOS
i will give this a go as and when i need to (hopefully never!) as i said, im currently using oxygen with android version 2.3.4 and am pretty happy with it, although i apear to have lost 720p video recording option, but that is no biggy and the only thing i can notice that is missing.
thanks again

720p isn't in Oxygen

yeah i gathered that, any idea why as i though oxygen was gingerbread which supported it? might be wrong, i am a newbie! haha

Cause it's ****

ooooh haha, what do you recommend then oh great one? ;P

Get a decent video camera as using a phone for HD video is a massive fail!!
I barely take photos with my phone - I've a digital camera for that

ahh right, thought you were gonna recommend a different rom, well, i have a HD video camera, but, doesnt quite fit in my pocket like my phone lol. like i said, im not that bothered, just wondered why i had it on my stock 3uk rom, but when going to a newer version (albeit non official) it wasnt in there? i guess it will be added at some stage

HTC push the '720p' capability but Adam decided to remove it from Oxygen as it's not very good. It was just personal choice
As for using a different ROM, there are some which are based on 2.3.4 that have 720p enabled so go have a browse. I just use a basic 2.3.3 Sense ROM I made myself based on the leaked test ROM. It does what I need it to so I'm happy

[Q] Stuck in limbo, need help!

I have posted several stuff about a situation I am having with my phone.... and I still cannot get it solved fully. I hope I can do it here.
I will try and summarize the situation with some key points.
First here is my current info....
Android Version 2.2.1
Baseband Version 2.15.00.03.04
Kernel Version [email protected]#2
Build Number 1.05.970.1 CL339957 release keys
Software number 1.05.970.1
PRI version 2.11_01c
PRL version 01001
Model Number PC36100
Supersonic DVT1 Ship S-ON
HBOOT-6.17.0001
MICROP-041f
TOUCH PANEL-ATMEL224_20aa
RADIO-2.15.00.03.04
Now I first rooted using revolutionary and got s-off properly.... I played with some roms and found it fun but not enough time to keep at it..... so I decided to s-on and go back to stock using un-revoked. That semi worked.... I got s-on.... but never lost the root. I still have recovery and everything still shows I have root except s-on.
Additionally, I tried to run the stock kddi ruu and i have gotten every error from 140, 170, 171 and even at one time 130...lol still no luck there. In doing all of that I figured out that the image version on my phone is 4.24.651.1 and I need to get to 1.05.970.1 (the stock kddi evo 4g) but cannot get it done.
Also I am HBOOT-6.17.0001 which is confusing in itself. xhausx helped me by giving me a nanadroid version of my kddi rom but that doesn't allow me to update anything and finding updates here is impossible unless I am running stock without root.
I am not sure if I need to flash a new misc partition, wipe my nand or something else and so not know how to do all of that..... can someone please please please help? I am willing to toss a small reward your way if we get me back to when I bought it.

I think you need to run the RUU for your phone; get it back to out of the box, stock, and just start over.

if you have another RUU that I do not know about please let me know... because the one that I have from kddi is not working.
my current one is.... RUU_SuperSonic_K_KDDI_JP_1.05.970.1_Radio_2.15.00.03.04_NV_2.11_release_176711_signed.exe

You have a Japanese Evo, right?
Since it's a different phone, most of the people here will not be able to help you. I could tell you what to do if you had a American Evo, but it would probably either error out or further your problem.
Is there a forum for your specific version? Do things generally work the same as our Evos... like can you use the same RUU that I would use?

I was thinking if this will work somthing I might do if everything fails? Maybe you could try rooting it again and unroot?

The fact that I have a Japanese evo doesn't mean that anyone will not be able to help me. This is actually the place where the developers made the first RUU for the Japanese evo to begin with. There are plenty of pro's here.... we just need to find the right solution for me. Additionally, most everything works the same.... I cannot use the same RUU as you because the cid will come up different and cause me more probs.

I have tried to run the root process again and it says in revolutionary that you already have s-off..... which in fact I do not.... and when I do the opposite process it just acts like its running the s-on and does nothing.

[Q] Need some help rooting and such

Hello all im hoping i dont get ridiculed for asking this but i need help rooting and and installing a custom recovery on my dads dinc. i I have a fair bit of knowlege with some of this but it appears to be nothing like rooting my little optimus v. i have found many guilds but they all seem to be from 2010. i know htc has a program for unlocking the bootloader but his hboot doesnt seem to be listed as a supported device. all he wants is a nice stable rom that will do away with the headaches of the stock sense rom (like the constant low memory warning). i can do all of this for him, im just a little confused as the best way of doing it. ive never had to deal with an htc before, im not even sure what the s-off is even for, so any help with this would be greatly appreciated

What hboot, radio, and android version is the phone currently on?
As for unlocking with htcdev, it makes you do an ruu which updates the hboot to a unlockable version.
S-off means security off and it allows you to flash unsigned images thru hboot such as new radios and splash screens.

The Android version is 2.3.4, and I can't remember how to get to the hboot to get that version number, I don't know were the radio version is

You can get both the radio (baseband), and hboot versions by booting to hboot. Power off the phone, pull the battery and reinsert, and then hold vol down and power till a white screen appears (hboot). It will tell you both versions in the top left corner.

Hboot is 0.92.0000
Radio is 2.15.10.07.07

Correct you can root and flash roms without being s-off. However s-off has some great advantages, like being able to flash radios, splash screens, and allows you to edit system files, along with some other stuff. S-off also makes it much easier to reroot should you somehow loose root in the future.

Hi highly recommend going S-OFF. As daunting as it may seem, it's really not that hard, and you won't regret it. Nothing really worked right for me S-ON, so just having S-ON alone might give you headaches.

yup if u already through the trouble to get root then why dont get s-off too, its really worth the time and trouble getting both root and s-off.

Worth upgrading HBOOT and Radio?

First of all, please accept my apologies if this has been in some way answered before. I did a search as far back as early 2011 but could not find a satisfactory response hence my posting here.
I have a PVT1 Desire with HBOOT 0.80.0000, 5.14.05.17 Radio and S-ON. The phone is rooted with Amon-RA recovery and currently happily running JB. All is working well and I am conscious of the fact that should I decide to update the HBOOT and Radio to the latest version, I would have to start from scratch in terms of rooting etc. but as the phone is currently working just fine, I would appreciate people's opinion if there are any real benefits in upgrading.
Many thanks in advance.

I really don't know or understand what you're waiting for. Why not s-off? It's so simple using revolutionary.
If you have a s-off, "rooting" is just flashing superuser from recovery. Not a complicated process at all.

Just to clarify, I have no issues with upgrading and then rooting from scratch but, as my understanding is, that would involve going back to the official GB rom (to upgrade the HBOOT) and then doing all else, I was just wondering if it worth the hassle i.e. whether upgrading HBOOT and the Radio files brings any tangible benefits.
Many thanks for your responses.

alot of roms these days do recommend the latest radio and the advantage of s-off is that u can change hboots for more space. if u click the all things root guide in my sig i think ul get pretty much all the info u need there.
Sent from my HTC Desire

Many thanks for all the suggestions.
I have now updated to the latest Radio but still not sure about HBOOT and S-OFF. Since I am using JB which requires stock HBOOT, there is little advantage to S-OFF for me? Also, is there a quick way to upgrade just the HBOOT without having to install the offiicial HTC GB rom?

i wouldnt recommend upgrading RADIO ! had so many issues with different roms the last year after upgrading to the latest radio. Now I am back to the latest official radio that was delivered in Europe (5.11.05.27) and having no issues since then with ICS or any other roms.
I have the impression that some issues revolve from the newer 5.17.xx.xx radios being incompatible with some roms.

Why just not to install latest RUU - it automatically flashes new HBOOT and Radio.
About efforts - it's just allows to use modern ROMs.
May be a little improves quality, stability and battery time.
PS I haven't any issues with 5.17.05.27 radio

[Q] Need Help Unrooting Please

I've been trying to unroot my phone today. It's time to take it in for an upgrade, and so I need to unroot and get it back to stock. I've been having a problem however when it comes to the PC36IMG.zip. I keep getting the error saying "Main version is older, update fail" and don't know what to do. I've tried several versions of the PC36IMG.zip much to no avail. If anyone could just spare a moment to help me out I'd be quite grateful. Here are the stats of my phone:
EVO 4G -

I rooted many moons ago using Unrevoked Forever, and hence ran the Unrevoked Forever Son zip to get S-ON instead of S-OFF. So the next step is just the PC36IMG. If any other information is needed, let me know. Thank you in advance, and I apologize if this is a noob question.

That information already looks stock. What is your software version? What file are you trying to flash? Any Gingerbread PC36IMG should work.

Software version is Android version correct? If so it is 4.1.1
The file I am trying to flash is the PC36IMG from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780141
But like I said, I keep getting that error. My phone currently has CM10 if that is at all relevant to anything. I just want it back stock, like it came shipped, so I don't have any hassles from Sprint people.

That's a really old one. You need a Gingerbread one. The latest one is for 4.67.651.3, I believe.
EDIT: The RUU would work too, but it'll require a Windows PC to run.

I have the M8, which is easily the best device I've ever owned. But if the EVO will hold you over, I'd wait for the next big device. The Snapdragon 805 is a beast.

There is no RUU for you to run, particularly since you're S-on. There is a newer software update than what you have installed, but you'd need to reinstall the stock Android recovery and make sure you're using a fairly stock ROM. You can then take the update.
