Rooting without Revolutionary - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I want to increase my internal memory by using Link2SD, for which I need my phone rooted. I have spent 2 days already trying to figure this out, but I have made zero progress. I have tried everything I could google, but most guides refer to revolutionary.io website, which is down.
I found this guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1600904
Even though it's for Incredible, I though the steps would be similar, perhaps with different files. Anyway, I'm stuck on step one where I need to unlock bootloader using HTCdev.
fastboot oem get_identifier_token returns command error:
(bootloader) [ERR] Command error !!!
OKAY [ 0.010s]
finished. total time: 0.010s

I am sure I have all my drivers installed correctly, both adb and fastboot work just fine (both show device when connected).
From what I understand, it is because of my HBOOT version, right? I tried running different RUUs I could find, but it always ends up with an error - either model id error [130], or something saying my image is newer than the one I want to upload (maybe it's bootloader version error [140], I don't remember now).
How should I proceed now?
Thanks

It won't, because HTCDEV unlock is necessary for it. And we can't perform it because of the reasons explained in the first post.

try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...-froyo-2-2-to-stock-2-1-t3187731/post62534573

installing pre-rooted update zip on S-ON - this method doesn't work, system goes to reboot on atempt to update

yep! but I got a root other way
I have already written tutorial but in russian. make sure to download attachments you need register https://translate.google.ru/transla...8&view=findpost&p=42658143&edit-text=&act=url
if in short , I received a temporary root with Zerg Rush , and then changed version of rom with this tut http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1550397 and then flash the official RUU 2.29.405.5 then installed the update 2.29.405.14 , and then install another update from htcdev is updated hboot to 1.03 version , then you can get the official unlock well then flash custom recovery and from his custom rom. sorry for my bad English, almost everything Google translator

Hello guys! Will this method work with 2.2.2 and HBoot 0.93.0001? I was trying to find the downgrade utility to 2.1 so i could use unrevoked, but unfortunately all links are dead.

Hi! You can Root with unrevoked.com
then S-off with alpharev.nl
and then flash any firmware.
Or you can flash any RUU firmware, but you need downgrade your firmware version with this Tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24039156#post24039156
make sure: do not download and flash 2.3 firmware in step 2, download and flash for example RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2

Desire Bravo can you help me?
@Desire Bravo,
You can also root your Desire (After you get your bootloader unlocked, of course) with Super One Click, this will work if you press the "Root" button while the HTC logo is displayed.
Are you the author of this russian tutorial?
I need help with the "downgrade.zip" and the second "PB99IMG.zip" files, seems to be missing. On the other hand, I don't know when I should flash the first "PB99IMG.zip" file or how to overwrite the "misc" partition. Can you help me with this?
Thank you very much in advance. Best regards.

Hi! Yes i can help, what is your hboot version? write info from the bootloader (vol down + power)
Are you from usa? Downgrade your Firmware version nummer, then try flash RUU Telstra from http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...8.00.32U_5.11.05.14_release_150162_signed.exe
and unlock with htc dev

@Desire Bravo
Hello again Desire Bravo.
HBOOT 1.02.0001 Bootloader Locked. S-ON
Firmware version 2.3.3 Gingerbread signed 3.14.405.1
No, I'm from Spain (GSM Phone, not CDMA).
So I will use RUU WWE 2.29.405.5 firmware, but I don't know in which one of those steps I should flash the first PB99IMG.zip file (the modified "rom.zip"), neither how to overwrite the misc partition
Thank you very much in advance. Best regards.

Soooo Have you downgrade firmware version? if yes, you have version 1.15.405.3 and now you can flash "any" RUU an firmware. Try flash .exe (boot too bootloader and run Ruu 2.29.405.5 . exe ) http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe
OR extract rom.zip rename to PB99IMG and flash with pB methode.
OR follow this guide and write 2.29.405.14 manuell http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1550397
then run PB9920000_Bravo_Froyo_hboot_1.03.0003_R.exe

u cant just run "any" ruu otherwise why would there be so many? why not only one for each android version?
if his phone is branded, vodafone etc etc then a wwe ruu would not work, or atleast shouldnt, it would give id error. u should ask these questions first before telling people to run ruu's.

ok if you know more, tell but there isn't enough choice on the site htc dev.
At me too branded t-mobile desire, that to me didn't prevent to flash RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5 then to flash update OTA_2.29.405.14_ and then PB9920000_Bravo_Froyo_hboot_1.03.0003_R
I told as at me it turned out, at others it can not turn out, then it is necessary to try with other firmware therefore I also told "any"
I now will make experiment, it became interesting to me))
UPD: i have found simple way to update hboot 1.02 - to 1.03
I will write small tutorial soon

@Desire Bravo,
No, I didn't downgrade my firmware version yet, as I don't know when I have to flash the rom.zip file (renamed as PB99IMG.zip), that's what I'm asking to you.
On the other hand, I don't know how to overwrite the "misc" partition.
So, when I fully understand "how" and "when" to perform each one of those steps I will go ahead with the tutorial.
@jmcclue,
My original firmware was FR83G (Orange) Android Froyo, signed 2.29.405.14, I have found this firmware in a .tar.gz file but don't how to flash it as it's not a zip or a RUU file.
Can I decompress the .tar.gz and put its content in a .zip file? If it's not, please, can you tell me how to get a valid FR83G file?
Do you know how to overwrite the "misc" partition of the Desire?
Thank you very much in advance to both of you. Best regards.

HTC Desire Error while updating RUU

I have a HTC Desire Bravo GSM.
Radio: 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
ROM: MIUI
Bootloader: 0.93.0001
Carrier: Vodaphone UK
I am trying to install this RUU: RUU_Bravo_Vodafone_UK_1.19.161.5_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126338_signed
While installing the ROM it gives an error relating to the the bootloader version. Do I need another RUU, if so which one? This is the only Vodaphone UK RUU I can find. If not do I need to upgrade Bootloader or downgrade it. (How?)
HELP!
First, tell us which type of hboot you are using (cm7r2, stock...).

Bootloaders cannot be downgraded.
Are you using one of alpharev's r2 hboots (cm7 or oxygen)? If yes, you have to flash bravo downgrade first, because these both new hboots are locked. This means they cannot be overwritten. After you have flashed bravo downgrade, try to flash ruu again.
Swyped from my HTC Desire using XDA App
How do I check which bootloader I have? and what do you mean by Bravo downgrade?
All I can see in fastboot is "hboot 0.93.0001" It doesnt say wether its Alpharev or stock?
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
Boot into bootloader and check first line. What's written there?
I mean if you have one of my named bootloaders, you have to download bravo_downgrade.img from here:
http://alpharev.nl
After flashing this via fastboot you should be able to flash ruu successfully.
Swyped from Oxygen
What do you mean by flashing through fasboot. I know how to apply .zip updates from recovery but how do you do it through fastboot? Does it need to be connected to a PC, any pre requisites for this method? I can see their are steps mentioned on the link you posted but I don't understand step 3. If you can clarify I will be very thankful.
When I boot into hbbot and there are options like "fastboot" and recovery etc. On the first line it says HTC Bravo PVT1 SHIP S-ON ?

Forget the thing with fastboot. You are still s-on, so you cannot use it and so there is no need to explain this.

Ohh I sort of get it now. The custom bootloader thingy can only be installed with S-OFF and I can only downgrade the bootloader with S-off which I don't have. So now I trying the RUU you mentioned. There are there vodaphone RUU's on the site. After trying all three, if they don't work, I have to S-off the device THEN run the Bravo downgrader and then flash any one of the three RUU's again, right?
Thanks for all the help man
Not so fast. Try to flash the latest ruu I posted. If this doesn't work, we will see further.

hey thanks, it worked. Can you please explain why the RUU you posted worked and mine didnt? What do the numbers in the RUU signify? I know of those numbers is the radio version. What about the rest?
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed
Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone refers to the software and carrier.
2.33.161.2 < What does this refer to?
32.49.00.32U < This is the radio obviously. Does it have to be match the radio on my device or not? (It does match by the way)
5.11.05.27 < What does this refer to?
thanks for all the help man. Could you kindly explain two more things?
1) What are the benefits of S-off?
2) whats the point of custom bootloaders like Alpharev?
3) When I root a device, I can obviously install cracked APKs from other websites. What other advantages does rooting offer?
Thanks again.

Mine worked because you wanted to flash an ruu which was too old for your phone.
The number "2.33.161.2" is referred to the software number of android or rather in this case of the android software number with vodafone branding.
32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27 is the radio.
1) You can use fastboot, flash different partition layouts or you can delete apps from /system/app while phone is running.
2) More space for your desire.
3) You can install custom roms, backup your apps and system with e.g. titanium backup or you can "take a picture" of your current system configuration with nandroid backup.
For more information, just use the search.
And do not forget to hit the thanks button.
Thanks. You are AWESOME.
Edit:
I forgot. I dropped my Desire a few weeks ago and the screen got cracked. I got the front glass replaced but now the proximity sensor stays ON all the time. SO when I make a call, the screen goes black and the ONLY way of getting the cell back in is removing the battery. I'll get the cell phone repaired in a week or two. Till then is there any app or any way I can disable the proximity sensor? I was using an MIUI rom before I flashed the RUU and it had an option under "Call settings" to turn off proximity sensor so I'm sure it can be done. Is there any other way to do this without having to go back to MIUI? :|

I am a little confused. Do need to have s-off to be able to do this? i mean to install the Europe RUU.
Note that my phone is not locked (not branded) but has s-on
just run it but don't continue or anything then find rom.zip somewhere in windows temp files then rename to PG76IMG.zip then copy to root of memory card then flash by holding Vol down + power when completely off fast boot uncheck.
Also you have to make a goldcard for this to work if you are s-on
Thanks. Ill try that

The currently installed ROM is CM7 Nightly 199
and the CWM Version is 2.5.0.1
And sorry for my bad English, i prefer German
From what I could tell, the S-ON seems to be the problem.
and how do i make it s-off?
cause my h-boot is 0.80.0002 and Alpharev X only works with 1.00.0001
From i know you need to update to official 2.2 with a RUU and then s-off.
Check one of stickies in development for more details.

Hi, can't remember exactly my method but try to explain best I can.
I flashed safe not rooted rom from 3xeno's sticky page. Then I downloaded on PC the ruu. Exe and this is the part o can't remember but I got the rom image from the exe and turned it into a pc49 img then placed on SD root and rebooted into hboot? ( Power + vol down ). It did its magic then I just used revolutionary to s-off and did clean install of cm7 to replace revs su. Hope this makes sense!!! And is of help.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
To update the su, just flash the signed zip from here: http://androidsu.com/superuser/
With a RUU, you must be in Android. (so not fastboot or anything else).
Then, if it works.
You open Revolutionary (you found it on revolutionary.io) in admin mode. And then it's okay

1 - install the ruu for 2.14.401.1

1.5 - if you can't do this because you already have the rom from 2.26 (but old radio etc), follow this tutorial so that you can go back to ruu 2.14.401.1

2 - use htcdev process (without ruu step) to unlock bootloader
3 - install cwm recovery by flashing this file (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?1rdxmtpx26201or) via "fastboot flash recovery recovery(custom).img"
4 - put update.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?vycb7415nn9boct) on the root of your sd card and install from cwm recovery.
4.5 - if the update doesn't work (i.e. if you still get "triangle !" logo flash this file (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?bqni648c46r5e44) via cwm and choose the option "supervision", then try the update again.
5 - after installation and first boot (take a while) boot back to cwm and flash this root.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?dumbffr3n8igau4)
you should now have the latest stock rom, latest hboot, latest radio, and be root.

what is the error code?
things to remember when you flash an ruu :-
you should not have modified system files (except for root)
you should have stock recovery to start with
you may need to create gold card
you should be relocked bootoader
if you are already on a software number which is higher than the ruu you are trying to install, you may need to downgrade first, using the guide posted above.
Is there anyway without S-OFF to update the radio? I would rather not loose any data too. I've manage to update everything but the radio.

if you're s-off already, can't you just flash the radio.img?
don't quote me on that, i'm not s-off myself, so i'm not reallu 'up' on all the thigns you can do and how you do them. but i was under the impression that with s-off you can flash it same as you flash recovery.img or system.img?
Do I need to flash radio? Because my girlfriends WFS has been t-mobile branded so I think I'm not able to flash RUU without gold crad?
Is it possible to flash system.img and boot.img only? Or will there be conflicts with radio/ramdisk etc...
BL is unlocked and device is rooted atm!
I installed this RUU to my Wildfire S by this tutorial
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1540952
My phone had unlocked bootloader (via htcdev.com), Root, S-On and my Hboot version was 1.09.0099. When I was trying to install RUU I got ERROR 140(bad hboot version). So I used mentioned tutorial to downgrade hboot and then I install new RUU.
I downloaded RUU 2.26.401.3 from this site because on Football's FileFactory link are allways full slots.
Code:
http://narod.ru/disk/51502291001.c558c29e878e383684edd1a956d417fd/RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3_Radio_47.23e.35.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed.exe.html
And there is a ZIP version if someone want
Code:
http://narod.ru/disk/51500892001.cf33d25826e44363856289cb11302527/PG76IMG%20-%20Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3_Radio_47.23e.35.3038H_7.57.39.10M.zip.html
Sorry for poor english.
Can anyone please upload the RUU to another server?
FileFactory is always overloaded. And the russian site is too slow to download from America. 3kbps gg.
Any issues unlocking BL and rooting this update? Any compelling reason to stay with 2.13.401.2/3?

[Q] downgrading HBOOT 2.00.0029 to 00.85.0024

Hello,
My DHD is unlocked, S-ON, Rooted, Hboot 2.00.0029, Rom: CyanogenMod 10.1 SR2.
I hope flash a Stock Rom (RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_R_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_233505_signed.exe)
When I do it, I obtain an error 140.
Do I have to downgrade hboot to 00.85.0024 ?
How without dowing S-OFF;
Thanks
did you've already tried flashing it from your bootloader..?
just copy the rom.zip from temp folder of your user name on pc while running that RUU at the next of second step..i mean while you double click of the RUU then you the first prompt that you must thick "Understand blah blah blah.." then click next..you must hold setup at this step..and tried search the rom.zip in your temp folder of your pc and copied to another folder..then rename it to PD98IMG.zip and put in to the root of your sd card..then boot the phone to bootloader mode..wait until bootloader reading and checking the PD98IMG.zip file..then ask you to confirm if you wanna flash it..
hope this help..

My question : there is no risk to brick radio or eMMC if not compatible with the hboot version ?
Thanks

sorry...because of your bootloader still s-on..you can't flashing RUU through bootloader..
if i'm not wrong..you just wanna return the phone back to the stock RUU right..?
if that so..you must relock your bootloader first...then find the latest version of the right RUU that suitable with you CID Num of your phone...then flashing it with running RUU.exe
for relock your bootloader..your phone must be in FASTBOOT mode..then connecting it to your pc.. then type fastboot command (w/o quote) "fastboot oem lock"
or alternative way is you can downgrade you bootloader with using AAHK2 script first (off course the downgrade RUU file is must be suitable with your phone CID num too)..then flashing the latest version of the right RUU (suitable with your CID num too)..
sorry not sure about RUU with arabic language..
hope this help..
Hello,
Thank you very much for your answers.
Off course, the Bootloader was relocked before flashing.
I used also, a goldcard, in flashing this stock RUU.
I can flash RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_ARA_3.13.415.2_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_227469_signed.exe, but this stock ROM has 2 languages (English+ Arabic), I need also the French language too.
thanks
