hello guys....
i recently rooted my desire and didnt use my simcard in it since i rooted.... now i try my simcard and it tells me that i have a EDIT NETWORK LOCK on n i have to type it some numbers to unlock it... :S i dunno wat i did to get that :S
my desire is an orange uk handset.... is there anyway of me being able to sort that out??
thank you
EDIT: network lock
You need a PUK. Either ring Orange or try this

I'm not on Orange so I have no idea how it works.
Give it a go though.
sorry matey.... i ment network lock.... sorry
Downgrade the radio to 4.05.00.11 version and you'll be fine.

how do i downgrade? is there a step by step guide?
The same way you flash a ROM, download it to your SDCard and boot into a recovery menu (preferably ClockWork) and then install the zip file you downloaded.

Totally depends if there's a radio included in the ROM, custom ROM's don't really include new radios though so you should be fine.
thank you for ur replies ppl got my phone up n running n all good now

Hello and welcome!
Let's have a look if I can help you out just a bit.
1) you still can receive OTA when bootloader is unlocked. As long as you have a stock recovery installed.
2) sorry can't tell. Maybe just ask in the Viper developer thread. As I don't have a dual SIM version, I'm cannot check it myself.
3) new firmware can just be installed if it comes with an OTA, but not by flashing it, as long as you are not S-Off.
Hope it helps. Hit "Thanks" if it does.

Hi Guys, i have bought an HTC Desire HD on Ebay, which is stuck at HTC logo while booting. It has a Vodafone Germany CID and does only boot into fastboot. My problem is that i didnt find any root/custom recovery method, which will work when i only have fastboot please if anyone can help me, tell me what to do....
Answer to yout rhread ¡¡¡
Oh, hello!
If your bootloader isn't unlocked, then it's not possible anyway, to access the Bootloader-Tools yourself.
The same was my own fortune, my doom catch·22 loop! With my Nexus 7!
If you buy a Nexus-Device, then immediately (unverzügloch)(!!!!!) UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER WITH THE TOOKLIT!
Just a Note: said:

What model go you have?
You might want to try and regenerate your unlock key, relock your phone, verify it works without a issue, reunlock, then flash custom recovery again

Ok i understood it. The thing is that in order to flash stock rom we need:
1.RUU.exe for htc desire 816 dual sim india[Not available]
2. Stock Rom [Available]
3. Stock recovery[Available]
4. Fastboot commands like
fastboot oem lock
fastboot flash recovery (recoveryname).img
[Ok this is also available]
Since the stock RUU is not available there is no way in which you can revert back to stock.
So I went to hTc service centre they told me that they cannot help me since my device is *TAMPERED*. They told me the only solution is to change the motherboard which will give you stock.
Even i mailed hTc about the problem they told me that reverting back to stock is not possible("Officially".coz they havent released the ruu for us. Actually its possible if you have ruu. But they wont give u ruu.).
They told the same reason that my device is tampered.
SOLUTION:
What i did:
Unlocked my bootloader by following steps on hTC dev site
Flashed TWRP by followings steps on twrp site for a5
(Luckily i had cm12 )So it booted into system.
But if you dont have any rom, then flash it thru recovry.
SO BASICALLY WE ARE STUCK ON CUSTOM ROM, UNTILL THEY RELEASE RUU.

this is bull****; they can and they will fix your device even if it's tampered. they do have all the required files, no motherboard change is needed. you'll just have to assure them that it's your responsibility, and that you'll pay the cost. If you can 't come to an agreement with your local hTC care, try another one. try writing to hTC support and/or customer experience/social media. explain your problem to them, they will come around. even if they don't at last, there are third party service shops that have the required files and can fix your phone(atleast where I live). I've heard that some even do it over the internet for you
cost of mobo change is usually 1/2 to 2/3 of the price of the device

This is the reply I got from a chat session with a HTC service guy. "In regards to your query, we would like to inform you that HTC does not recommend our customers to convert or root the device as doing so voids the warranty of the device and also it may cause hardware to malfunction. We do not provide support for rooting and unlocking the bootloader." "I would like to inform you that we cannot help you with the RUU file ." When I asked the reason for not releasing the RUU the guy just ended the chat session!

I'd say try again, over and over. I've had similar replies but if you're persistent , you're gonna find the right person, or the right way. this mobo change is stupid, and you should find someone who understands that

Thanks Btw. I had my 1st lollipop rooted backup, just did ALL from the scratch!
Restored without rooting it, Downloaded the StageFright update OTA, flashed OTA's recovery, Re-locked bootloader & did the OTA update = Success!
I will take a TWRP backup on my latest firmware in case anybody need it..
