I will have to send my Desire HD back to HTC because of a broken battery-lit. I need full stock because of the warranty. Is this method sufficient or do I have to change radio and S-ON as well?

Download terminal emulator from the Market and type in
cat /sys/class/block/mmcblk0/device/name
Then hit enter.
Edit: There is a space between "cat and forward slash". No space after that.

Downgrade and flash away.
By the way, after I'd flashed my millionth or so ROM I decided to check my emmc chip. I have the "bad" one, but guess what? No problems.

Lol, nothing, just wait it out, i have the "bad" chip and my phone is fine. If your unrooted, it probably won't die before you are eligble for an upgrade. Unfortunatly, thats the best advice i or anyone can give you.
bad chip
So , well doesnt matter what method I would use to root and unlock? only wait and see ?

Ok, since your on Gingerbread, youll need to downgrade to froyo.
Use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178912
Then you'll need to root it once your on 2.2.1
Use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858996
I know its a lot but make sure you read all of it before you actually do it.
Oh, and GFree is a package that uses exploits to gain root. It also sim unlocks. I believe there is a youtube video on how to use GFree, it looks sketchy but follow it lol.
Here is the link for that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4B4y0CQUDo
There is a part two so find the second part.

I'm not here to bash anything, so don't take this the wrong way, but DO NOT USE THIS METHOD. I did the same thing after a while it will turn off your phone randomly and brick it. You probably won't believe me but you'll see, it has happened to a ton of people. I just don't want people to make the same mistake I did. DO NOT USE THIS METHOD.

Bootloader Unlock Support from HTC DEV

Hey-
HTCDev just released a bootloader unlock tool expansion to the wildfire. Hopefully this will help some with rooting etc., and can only be a good thing.
Only good things can come from this!
Re
HTC Wildfire in supported list it is not Buzz
strongly not recommended download and flash bootloader.
Please get your information correct. Both the HTC Wildfire and HTC Wildfire S are listed.
I confirm that HTC Buzz is in list but i don't understand about the RUU before the first step...
Where i can find a RUU for the wildfire?
My Wildfire hasn't branded and they say:
BEFORE beginning the Unlock Bootloader process your product requires that you update the ROM to the version listed in the table below first, then download the RUU next to it to enable the unlocking capability.

I'm confused... what link in the table i must grab?
the ruu list is at the bottom of the page but my problem is im on virgin mobile and there not listed in he carriers ruu not even t mobile not uk carriers are there either
---------- Post added at 11:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:29 PM ----------
mmm found the problem there all us carriers in there so ont think they will work on my uk virgin wildfire
help..!!
I'm from INDIA dont know which carrier my htc wildfire has...so dont know which carrier to select to upgrade the RUU....which is th first step to unlock plzzz help..!!!
Yeah I have this problem too, Vodafone isn't on the list... what do I do?
htc wildfire
has anyone try to root the phone by follow the htcdev tools yet ?
I'm wondering if it can also unlock HBOOT 1.01.0002? Anyone has tried? I really want to root my brothers phone. If only it's as easy unlocking like the Desire S.
If you don't want to risk anything with going the HTC way, check my guide, all the files are provided. The guide also tells people how to root with the new HBOOT.

Would you mind uploading it somewhere so some more experienced users could take a look at it, from what I've read on the HTC dev site I think I'd rather use the revolutionary method still.

I tried to follow the procedure skipping the preliminary step where they speak the RUU, but the command in step eight (flashboot oem ...) always error.
What do you mean? The file I downloaded? It's usaff27 tutorial and link is on his sig.

I think that the RUU in HCTdev page are only for CDMA version. We must wait for the gsm version.
guys, for the unlocked Wildfire and some other carriers like Vodafone UK is up now. The unlocked version I think is HTC WWE.

I unlocked a Wildfire using these instruction. In order to root I think I have to flash a prerooted ROM with adb now right? How do I do that?

Done something very stupid....

Hi all,
I got my HTC One back from Vodafone repair centre with a note stating, that due to the time and expense of fixing the problem (raised glass screen) they have sent me another phone. To my delight when I checked the hboot and rom version, I saw it was hboot 1.44 and ROM 4.1.1........... S-OFF here I come............. ...
I nipped out for a couple of hours and when I came back without thinking applied the bloody updates from OTA which updated the hboot to 1.54 and JB 4.2.2 :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:
What a Idiot I am...........................:silly: :silly: :silly: :silly: :silly: :silly: :silly:

I ran my One totally unrooted, locked and stock until revone came along for about 3 months and still running a pretty close to stock rom. I think the One is one of the few devices which is great just running stock, so enjoy it while you wait for another s-off exploit...
