[Q] Desire HD - getting back to stock ROM

hey guys,
i'm kinda new to whole android stuff - i have a desire HD stock ROM, no modifications. I'm really interested in flashing it to "android revolution 3.1". So, i read the guides about how to flash rom's.
My only open question is: How can i go back to stock ROM? The Desire HD is running 1.72 atm, and i maybe want to get back to it, if i'm unhappy with custom rom. I read about RUU, but i can't find a RUU for DHD 1.72. It's an unbranded DHD. Would be nice if someone here could help me.
greets!
afaik there are no 1.7x RUU's out.
the 1.7x was just a FOTA of the older 1.3x .
just get your (branded/notbranded) RUU of the 1.3x .
should be fine though.

I m sure you won't want to get back to stock after you get your hands on custom roms
But anyways you ll find 1.72.xx RUU here: http://xdafil.es/index.php?path=DesireHD/RUU/
Plus you ll have a backup of your stock ROM before you flash a new rom. So should not be any problem anyway.

I'm not sure about the T-Mobile version of the ROM (not sure of any customizations they included), but you can download stock ROM's from the link below:
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Ace
Obviously the best way would be to restore a ClockwordMod Backup of your original configuration, but I'm guessing such a backup was never done?
Just out of curiosity, why do you wish to return to a stock ROM?
Hope this helps

Here's a question. I'm a proud owner of a GT-i9000 SGSI and my sister has a HTC Desire HD.
She's recently been complaining about various issues with the phone itself. I haven't had a look at it yet but I'd like to know what the most current stable stock ROM is and how to install/flash.
That link that ashleyayling has supplied takes you to a page full of ROMs for something called ACE? Is that Galaxy Ace or is that a build version or something?
I've tried searching and ROM shows up plenty of times but nothing regarding stock ROMs. TBH, I haven't looked through all 39 pages of the search but I thought maybe someone will be able to help me?
To summarise:
1. Latest (stable) stock ROM
2. How to install/flash
Many thanks.

1. The link provided above is a full list of stock roms in RUU format. Ace was the codename for the Desire HD, so anything referring to Ace is usually the DHD
2. have a look in the development section, there's heaps of threads to help you out with this one, I don't think it would be an easy straightforward answer for someone to give you here (that's why there's whole threads dedicated to it)
Not to barge in on someone else needing help (Noob to the forums) but wondered if you can point me in the right direction! Desperately in need of help as I just killed My Rooted then OTA updated (killing the root) DHD. I was trying to root it again using the Ace Hack Tool and it's now stuck at the T-Mobile loading screen! I'm stumped as to what to do as no matter what I put on the SD it won't update it to work. And can't update via USB as it won't go into the OS. It does flash up quickly some writing while going into the bootloader but all I can make out is Image not Found... Please help! ATM its an expensive paperweight!
Sorry, I looked at the link given and there are loads of .exe downloads.
Can someone please say which one is the latest Stock RUU, I am selling my phone tomorrow and need to put it back to stock, if someone can just say which one I need to download.
Im guessing I just install it like I do with any custom rom through clockword mod.
Will I have root after the stock RUU has been installed? I dont think it matters if it is rooted or not so i'm not bothered too much about that, but i'm not sure they'll be happy if its on ICS MIUI which isn't 100% stable

[Q] stock + custom firmware dualboot

Hello everyone!
I am planing to root my htc desire hd cause i've read lots of stunning stuff you can do when your phone is rooted.
like using the newest version of android, installing google now and so on..
But my question is, is it possible to stay with my stock firmware (and if possible stock kernel?) somehow
and use one or more custom firmwares with programs like boot manager to find one for daily use?
and what are the disadvantages of using a custom kernel? cause i've read the following, looking through your forums:
In the present case,It is hard to say which kernel is good .All unofficial kernel have the same headphone button issue,and only 5 sensors(DHD have 7 sensors).

(i dont even know what he means with 7 sensors.. )

If you use AAHK (no idea about HTCDEV method) you can simply do a full image backup of your stock firmware, including your kernel (this is called a nandroid backup), after you've rooted but before you flash a custom ROM. Then, wipe and flash custom firmwares to your heart's content. If you ever want stock back, just restore that backup. I'm not aware of a dual boot manager, though.
Usually, the kernel that came with the firmware (aka ROM) is the best kernel. Devs will post about alternate kernels that are compatible with their ROMs. (Note that if you're planning to use the latest version of Android, Jelly Bean, there is a compatible alternate kernel.)
No idea about those sensors.

Yes u can boot multiple roms using boot manager i hv seen it work but i hvnt been able to do it myself or u can say i was less intrested to pay attention. But the answer is yes u can. Head on to the boot manager in play store it gives u all the info u need to get u phone run two or more roms at the same time.
P.S: Speaking of which i think i might give it another go again but this time with interest.

Best thing if you want Stock ROM is Android Revolution HD, BEST stock based ROM (Sense 3.0, 2.3.5 Gingerbread)
Although you might like to experiment with other Android versions, like AOSP (exactly as Google intended it), AOKP (slightly modified), CyanogenMod (Different thing altogether) or even MIUI (if you like the iPhone's simplicity)

Check if your build number is the one named. It's in Settings - About phone.
Ok so, my DHD had 2.2 froyo ...updated over OTA for 2.3.5 and is 3.12.405.1.If i get it right so far :
- I need Advanced Ace Hack Kit
- I downloaded Android Revolution 7.1
So all i need is use AAHK ( that will instal CWM right?) then boot it, using Rom Manager ( from Market) or using vol down + power button , select wipe and then instal ROM from card and that all? Btw is Android Revolution 7.1 have any issues i wish to know guys.If any1 wana help me step by step and have time:
- [email protected] ( yahoo messenger ) and bona.nox ( skype) just send me inv
Thx in advance guys :/
Ohhh i forget about gapps ...need for Revolution 7.1 also right?
Yes. You don't need gapps for a Sense ROM like ARHD.
Thx bananagranola. After i saw many things about rooting and things ...il keep it on stock ...old but good not with errors or any surprises later on. 8D
