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

Many thanks in advance
Slightly confused r u saying you have an unrooted phone u want to root?

sorry i ment i have a rooted phone ill edit original post to reflect that
It really depends on what your after, do you want a stock Rom that's updated or a custom
This would be my first destination
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=809328
Read requirements for the Rom u want some require new radio, ext partitions or s-off to work
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
thanks alot for the reply i think id rather stick with a stock rom thats updated ill check the link out thank u very much
No worries stock roms are at the very bottom

I dunno what you really mean with newest ROM.
Newest rooted stock ROMs don't give your phone much benefits as well as probable additional bugs.
Custom ROMs have more speed, less bloatware, more memory space, additional functionalities, etc. some even with newer android version.
1. I would find a stable custom ROM (not the experimental ones) so that you can have something more for your phone without the probable bugs.
2. The term bugs, it is relative, perhaps you won't be experiencing it like some people do with the respective ROM.
Can be my Desire HD be directly rooted without downgrade of firmware ?
ROM : Stock Gingerbread ROM 2.3.3 Radio : 12.54.60.25U_29.09.04.11_M2 Kernel : 2.6.35.10-g0956377 Firmware : 2.36.405.8
I heard that 1.32 firmware can be rooted using Visionary r14 but also i know that with this firmware all my 720p records have too low fps

true, but this rom (1.32) its temporary Until flash a more new rom......
for that visionary r14 can do his work and give to you root acces... its needed the 1.32 version (old)
later you can flash a new rom based on froyo 2.2.1 (1.75, 1.82...) or a gingerbread rom....
If your firmware isn't 1.32, then you HAVE to downgrade, there's no other option...to get a full root.
Ok, I see a lot understandable how-tos. But my question is - can by my HTC fully restored to original state ? (maybe for a warranty) ?
And if i downgrade a phone and after applying root a custom ROM, it will also update a firmware version ?
I am new in android coming from iPhone 3gs so sorry if my questions is stupid

Stuppid its the person that do everything without asking and read first...
The process its fully reversible and later you can return totally at the factory features...when you desire.... Including your lastest unrooted firmware or custom rom of the all android versions...

yea.. i think all dev. roms are great... someone in development process, someone final release... but you can try several custom roms and judge it by yourself....You can choose better the one that adapts for what you look...its an advantage of open source code
in the all custom roms threads you have a "buglist" for to see them....
Hi all,
I got my Desire HD today and it's Arabic With Froyo 2.2 and want to Updating it to Arabic Gingerbread Official ROM
I want to update, Root and every other necessary thing to the device to avoid Downgrading or any other pains that may appear in near future
Want to stay in official ROM for while to test device and get familiar with it before trying other custom ROM's
Thanks a lot and waiting your help
check your phone settings...
-----about phone.....software updates ......check now.......
will be updated to official gingerbread........
but rooting will be a problem if you are updating ur build number to 2.42 or above...
you cant root now......you must have to wait.........
if its updating to 2.36 or 2.37...you can root it................
it depends on ur luck[I think]
[rooting without downgrading is almost impossible]...
ALL THE BEST............
Already checked for over the air update and found it about 110 MB
Case 1 : [Can i root my device now] and then update it either by Over The Air or RUU and keep root or it will be unrooted again ?!
Case 2 : I will update my device now and i don't know what versions it will be so will i be able to root it after update or will need hard work ?
sorry for those noob question but i am all new to this and don't want to break my device
If you root in froyo mood ....you cant go for official update......
for that you must unroot it and again update.......
2...If you update as I said it will depend on ur luck which version you are getting..
If you are updating to gingerbread 2.3.3
your build no. may updated to 2.37, 2.42, [I also saw one person posted in forum about 2.43]
If 2.37 comes ....no problem you can root it.......
If higher than that comes ...you must have to wait........[I dont know how longer]
In my opinion you must root it now.....because Official gingerbread isnt that good...
search the forum...you can see many compliants...after updating it....
I am fed up with too much of complaints and I am waiting to know how to root 2.42.........

So do you recommend staying in Froyo in official version and if i want Gingerbread so i have to use costume roms
i think that there is some changes in sense between Froyo and GB or i am wrong ? what the GB changelog for Desire HD cuz if it don't worth upgrading i will not do it and will stay with Froyo
So do you recommend staying in Froyo in official version and if i want Gingerbread so i have to use costume roms
yup....you can use custom roms if you want gingerbread after rooting....
I am recommending you to root in froyo than updating.........
I am one of the person who is regretting for updating .....
And I dont think there's difference bw the senses of gb and froyo....
[ if you wanna root...you MUST DOWNGRADE....whether its GB[upto 2.37] or froyo]......
What about rooting then update to 2.3.3 with pre-rooted room or GB update doesn't worth at all ??
i like the new sense 2.1 and want to get it but don't know what to do
also the device is new and with warranty so i don't wont to void it for one or two months cuz if there any problem with it i can send it back
if i updated now to official 2.3.3 ROM either by RUU or OTA , can i downgrade and go for root and custom ROM or i will be stuck at 2.3.3 with no root ?!
bro..listen carefully...I already posted for your question.....
its simple.....
If you update your fone to 2.3.3 via official update....
ur build no may get updated to 2.36 , 2.37 or above[in ur phone settings.about phone.. you can see ur build no......]
it depends on ur luck which version you will get.....[i believe]
currently therez ways to downgrade 2.36,2.37.......[build no]
if your fone get updated abve 2.37
.
downgrading above 2.37 isnt found yet.......so you cant downgrade it....that means you cant root it.......
I have a plan for you.........you just go for official update....
get ur 2.3.3 and sense 2.1
feel ur 2.3.3.....and know the difference bt 2.2 and 2.3.3
and use it for 2 or 3 months.....when you start thinking that you wanna root through downgrading just visit the forums......by that time our senior members will find the way to downgrade 2.42 and all...........
[caution-update at your risk....wat I have said about finding the way to downgrade 2.42 are estimations.....I am not sure about they will find within 2 or 3 months.]

That is what i am planning to do but just want to do it right so in future when i need to root or downgrade every thing will be smooth ,, do you recommend doing S-Off or any other stuff before updating as it possible now and will not be possible after updating ?!
noob question what is meant by 2.37, 2.42 where is that numbers ?? is it the build number or what cuz i can't find it
already downloaded this RUU is this the latest version and do you recommend update with it or go with OTA update ?
RUU_Ace_Gingerbread_S_HTC_ARA_2.42.415.1_Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_release_193079_signed
which version that i can downgrade and is there a shipped rom for that or no ??
Thanks a lot for your help and your time
oh bro..am getting confused............
k..here is the deal......its simple....
dont think about S-off or sumthing b4 you update.....to S OFF ur set you must downgrade it now........you can do that stuffs when you think about rooting....
2.I prefer you go for official update.....
3.go to settings--about fone----software information---build no.....
if the picture given on d top is your DHDs settings then ur build no is 1.83.415
Nothing to do bro...just go for official update.........nothing to worry about....nothing to do b4 official update to make rooting easy.......Enjoy it until you want to root......
when you want to root check the forums......you will definitely find the way.....
[now think about only official update.................PLS DONT THINK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE]
After updating officially......post ur new build no..here...I will tell you what to do........
ALL THE BEST>>>>
first i don't know how to thank you for your patience and your time
so now you recommend me to update to gingerbread and start using the device normal use
just want to know what is the best way to update the device OTA or using one of RUU files
final question about rooting and S-Off , is it possible to root and S-Off Desire HD with Gingerbread whatever the method is or updating it will make the device stuck and we have to wait for solution ?!
you go for official update bro..........that i recommend you to use gingerbread as you dont want to root ur fone now and create some problem....
no......you can root ur fone even after updating to gingerbread.....
just check out the forum.......
you arent rooting it quickly after updating na ????
if ur build no..gets updated to higher than 2.37.......
you must wait for rooting......thats it....nothing else.........
All the best with ur DHD GB......
Thanks a lot for your help and I will update the device today isA
I will postpon rooting for month or two for warranty reasons cuz the device is new and don't want to void my warranty
now i already installed some apps and want to format so shall i reformat it from BootLoader using Factory Reset
also updating it over WiFi or using the RUU file RUU_Ace_Gingerbread_S_HTC_ARA_2.42.415.1_Radio_12. 54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_release_193079_signed
update via Wifi......
Updated it via WiFi and it's so good
liked the new sense with quick setting and application icon now is better than the old arrow and menu section all / frequent / downloaded is VERY GOOD
Version now is
Baseband Version
12. 54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2
Kernal Version
2.6.35.10-g997575f
Build Number
2.42.415.1 CL68905
Software Number
2.42.415.1
....great...........Enjoy your GB.........
What's the best Maps/GPS application to use and have Egypt Maps cuz Google Maps still don't have offline mode maps like Nokia Ovi Maps and every time you run you must be connected to Internet
Or if there any other way to save maps for Google Maps to use it without internet will be good
you must have a app called locations.........[i havent tried yet]
there ......if you want to see the map of particular location.....you must download it.....[i had 327mb to download.....and I didnt]
so that does means....you can see the map...even if you are offline.......

hi,
please can u help me with this..
I have DHD with build number: 1.83.415.4 CL327244
and kernal version: 2.6.32.21
till now this phone doesn't get any update to 2.3 GB, I've checked the sittings everyday for new updates!! nothing happened!!!
are there any solutions???????????????
Sorry, i didn't mean to thank you
The easiest way to update would be through rooting your device http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=855403&highlight=rooting+guide you can than install clockwork mod or some other recovery and update to any ace or dhd, or desire hd (all the same thing) rom that takes your fansy.
How are we supposed to help with this? We have no control over official updates. I would ask your carrier about it, or as above root and flash a custom rom.
thank u ...
Is it simple to flash a new rom???
Simpler then it should be. Before you so anything spend a few hours reading up on it.
