stock rom, radio s-off sim lock question - Desire HD General

im currently trading my Desire HD (i know i know crazy) for a galaxy s, and kinect for the 360.
Now i bought this phone and i believe it was sim locked to virgin UK, so my t-mobile sim worked, i did the radio s off and the other s off before flashing leedroid (excellent may i add) and tried the wifes orange sim card in it, which worked perfectly
my question is, the guy wants it to be a stock desire hd so if i flash the stock rom will i lose the ability to use whatever sim i like?
he is on vodafone so obviously i need the handset to still be sim unlocked
does flashing a stock rom lose radio-s off and the like?
regards

Sim unlock is perminent so no he wont

excellent stuff, does anyone have a working link for the latest non gingerbread WWE rom?
tried a few links and they seem dead

Recently I've permroot my DHD using
visionaryplus r.14
http://android.modaco.com/content/software/320350/19-nov-r14-visionary-one-click-root/
and radio S off using
One click Radio S-OFF
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9525635&postcount=1
on my stock DHD and that's it.
There is a update from 2.2 to 2.2.1, I updated using OTA and the phone updates and reboot. Now my phone is struck in the screen showing a triangle with a ! sign. Can anyone explain how to recover my phone. Thanks

[Q] unrooting problems

i am trying to unroot and restore my Legend to it's original firmware and state because i have to send it to the workshop for some repairs (and i heard that flashing into custom roms voids the warranty), but i can't flash the original RUU's.. i get some strange message about wrong version.
I have a Legend that is bought in a "3-store" in Sweden, so i guess it's 3-branded. I have tried several wwe-roms from shipped-roms.com but no one seems to work. anyone know how to get this done?
Use gold card,I never had any issues while flashing my legend with RUU's.

Should I update my DHD?

I just received an notification for my phone saying I have a system update available. Should I just ignore it, or it is save to do so? Since my phone is rooted and unlocked and I might perform an eng-off, radio and custom rom flash this weekend.
Please advice.

I had an update from 2.2o to 2.21 yesterday on Orange.
It didnt seem to do any harm but im running stock.

I was wondering if its better to install a new kernel and radio first better I install a custom Rom. Or it doesn't really matter which order I do it in.

Don't really understand what your trying to say! I would recommend, as Kali himself does, flashing one of the newer radios as they all seem to improve battery life, the most recommended one is Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF although I am currently running Radio_12.28g.60.140f_26.05.05.27_M3
which seems fine to me.

You'll need ENG h-boot if something goes awry in the flashing as it allows you to issue fastboot commands which can save a potentially bricked phone, plus it is the only way you can currently flash the new radio

thanks for your advice
would the efficiency of the radio varies from phone to phone or network to network?
since I am doing this whole process slate clean, which order would u recommend I install them in? roms, radio, kernel?
well, i'd definately do the rom last, as you would probably have to reinstall it after patching a new radio anyway.
Just flashed Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF.
So it doesn't matter if I flash the kernel or the rom first right?

Back to stock ROM?

Hey guys,
Okay so at moment I'm running a ROM from XDA but if I can I would like to return to stock ROM that came with my phone and get it back to normle, is this possible and if yes is there any guides how to do it?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I'm assuming you have an Ace model, you go here (http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Ace) and find the one that matches yours, download and run the .exe - It will tell you all you need to do.
Hey okay I gone to link, I want the lastest update there, my phone is HTC desire Hd I don't know which ROM it is though. Also these roms there full stock ones that ship with phone?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Yes. Thats why it's called Shipped ROMs. It's just different versions.
Right so if I install one of these stock roms my phone will still be rooted and stuff wouldn't it? So it wouldn't be in the orginal state

They return to stock completely, no root. I don't know if it sets R-ON, but I'd assume so.

Hi,
I have to go back to the stock rom, too. Thats because I killed my Headphone Jack and want it to send it to HTC for warranty.
Is this .exe settig everything back to stock settings (delete ClockworkModRecovery, unroot the phone, installing standard Radio and set Radio s-On and ENG s-ON) ?
I found out, that i orginally had 1.32.405.6 BB 12.28b.60.14eU_26.03.02.26_M installed, but the site with the link above has only RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.6_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155891_sig
ned.exe to download.
Is there any Difference, or is it visible for HTC?
1st I Had this Baseband in my DHD with Remix 3d Rom
12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M
So i downloaded ( RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.6_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed.exe ) and Run The Exe and flashed it back to 2.2 Froyo.. It all Went Fine and it boot up Fine too...
After that i downloaded ( RUU_Ace_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.50.405.2_Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_release_199042_signed.exe )

As far as I know, so far Sense 3.0 only ships with the HTC Sensation. Sense 2.1 is the correct version for your stock HTC DHD Rom, you shouldn't worry
So this back to stock ROM, does this return everything back to normle so un roots, radio on. All that?

Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
maybe released tomorrow during their conference
this an amazing update by HTC it really transforms the whole phone, their only one bug I could find which is the badly rendered friends stream widget, and one pixel misalignment in the music sound enhancement, but really amazing work from HTC the new gallery rendering is super clean and smooth, the new lockscreen is really something, i hope they pattened it before Apple steals it
It will remove ENG S-OFF, but it will not touch Radio S-OFF. If somebody wants to try that RUU, it is recommended to have Radio S-OFF because then it is easy to go back to another ROM.

Hello
would you please give me the download link of this rom
you can find it here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1268384
Just today i had installed the leaked PD98IMG file of the 3.06.405.2 firmware.
Beforehand i had installed the official 2.50.405.1 RUU and then I installed the upgrade by the recovery.
Well, I was very surprised to find out it was rooted and it still had s-off.
Does anybdy know if installing this RUU I would lose root and s-off?
Sense 3.0? HTC are awesome if they're bringing this to the HD officially
So can I flash this on unrooted device
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I suppose so. Let us know of it works. I would gladly do it of not for the fact that I have already installed this ROM by PD98IMG through recovery.
I wonder if there are differences...
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using XDA App
the only issue i have with it is that the picture on the RUU is of a tablet!? dont really fancy bricking my phone
i was more looking if this was easy way to upgrate /downgrade to gain root access. I really was scared to make the gold card etc...
So if some one had flashed the RUU wanted to see if that worked , especially when they were not rooted
I wanted to see if any one got pass the signature check, this failed for with Signature error.

That's nice of you but you don't have to offer anything on return. There's plenty of us that will help you out with no needed incentives.
But to answer your question, can you still get into your bootloader? Take battery off and put it back in. Then hold down Volume Down+Power button. If so, then all isn't lost. You can try to use the stock PD15IMG.zip for the Panache to put it back to stock.

Idk how to do that. I shouldn't of messed with it now the phone is useless. Cause these asians asking for 80$ at mall but its to much
The problem here is that the op tried rooting the panache the same way they rooted theirs friends mytouch 4g. Problem with this is that the panache come with gingerbread already. So they will have to downgrade.
I figured these steps will downgrade their panache with the stock US 2.2.
febycv said:
To make the process very simple, try this method.
Just follow this steps for an error free downgrade.
1. Download the rom here.
2. Rename it to PD15IMG.zip
2. Place it on the root of your sd card.
3. Switch On your phone while holding the Power button & the down volume button.
4. The hboot menu will update your phone (do according to the hboot instructions).
The original bootloader is 0.86.0000
Now reboot & enjoy your update......This is the original T-mobile 2.2.1 version....so no worries.....

Those steps wont work. You need the instructions on the G2 section. I'm on my phone so I can't link,but its in there. You meed to downgrade back to froyo. ADB is also required. So hopefully you know how to do that.

If you are using the Panache, you should be doing this guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16858971&postcount=98
It sounds to me like you need a gold card to downgrade your panache to the old android software. Too bad in order to make a gold card you need access to the panache to push the PD15IMG.zip into the card... You can always ask around to see if anyone in your area has a gold card for the panache u can borrow in order to fix your phone.
She is doing this guide. Actually, I've temp-rooted her phone and "updated" the MISC partition for downgrade, but she didn't have a card reader ready for making a goldcard, and the next day she already managed to reboot her phone and get stuck. So the only thing she needs is a goldcard.
The problem currently is getting CID out of this phone, I'm not sure stock bootloader shows it, and it's required for goldcard. If anyone knows Panache's CID - please share. If not - Panache RUU will be required to return to stock, but there is not a single link on the net now. So if anyone has it - please share, too.
Make a gold card for her using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970157 ? If you have the panache just insert a 1 gig card into the phone and enable disc mode.
1) Format it first
2) Click MMC2 and click get CID
3) Click on the website on the lower part and paste the CID number onto the form
4) go to email download image
5) Load the image and patch it and you'll have a semi ready gold card.
6) Put the phone back in charge/debug mode and push the PD15img.zip file through and it should revert it to mytouch4g stock.
Ps. I just rooted my panache two days ago and Im successfully running VU rom.
The problem with this guide is that it doesn't explicitly say that the phone needs to be fully booted into Android and with USB debugging enabled - but it needs to be. So if the phone doesn't boot, this guide is worthless. See the method this guide is referring to for getting CID out of the phone, and you'll understand.
In any case, the problem is fixed (or actually, there was no problem), the phone is booting. Hopefully, everything will remain ok.
Yea. The last time I gtalked her she was able to boot into the device. Also she did tell me when trying to flash the stock 2.2 unrooted rom from hboot
She did mention something about CID. Hope she can figure out. I don't use adb because I can't get it to ever work on none of the pc's I use so I don't know adb yet. So I won't be able to help her in that part.
