Hi, I flashed rcmix hd and am really enjoying it at the moment, but if I wanted to go back to my stock rom I had, do I just restore my nandroid backup?? And then unroot and eng s-on?
Thank you ;-)
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Yep, should be as simple as that (restoring the backup will return the phone to the state it was in when the backup was taken).
Unless you're needing it fully back to stock for warranty purposes I'd be inclined to leave root and s-off so when you inevitably get sick of the stock ROM again you can flash another without having to bother re-doing all that, but that's just me
You will also have to replace CWM with the stock one.
An alternative would be flash RUU, s-on and unroot.
I didn't see post sorry, yeah I was thinking of going back to stock, but wondered whether I should use Vodafone branded ruu or use official HTC ruu??
If I flash official HTC ruu, will I debrand my phone? And if its debranded do I still get ota updates?
And after flashing HTC ruu, do I just do radio s-on and unroot? Or as u said just flash official ruu and leave root and radio s-on for another rom later on down the line?
Oh and you said I will need to replace cwm with stock one, so if I flashed HTC ruu, does that automatically replace it?
Thank you

ok thank you, i was gonna flash official ruu 1.32 but it is in exe. format, how would i do that?? because i thought it had to be a zip file, so you could install it through cwm????
Maybe it's meant to be used on the computer if it's an exe?
You will also probably have to connect the phone to the computer via usb.

hhmmmm, maybe i should just use the zip file then.
theres 2, either 1.32 xx3.exe
or 1.32 xx6.zip
does it really matter which one i flash??
It's not meant to be flashed, it's meant to be executed on the computer with the phone connected via usb. HTC Sync should be on too. I was just being sarcastic earlier...

The RUU is an all in one utility to flash official HTC ROMs, RUU = Rom Update Utility.
To flash one, ensure you have HTC Sync installed (for correct drivers), plug your handset in to your computer, double click the RUU.exe, follow the prompts. Easy as peas.

if im not wrong flashing the ruu will flash the recovery to the default one as well.and will also eng-S-On it...so the only thing to do after that is just to root and radio S-On.

Technically no, if you have fiddled with the bootloader or uninstalled the original ROM you will have voided your warranty even if you put it back as was.
Practically, yes, no-one is gonna be able to tell what you've been up to if it's back to stock

how can I reinstall the original ROM?
Flash one of the original RUU files.
Let me use this tread. I am new in DesireHD world , so i must learn and ask stuppid questions
Let's say that my desireHD is rooted and upgrade it with custom rom. If I want, I just DL original RUU and flash it and desire becomes as it was before root procedure?
TNX
Sorry to bring this back up guys but I could do with knowing this too.
I've had my DHD for about 3 months now, after the 1st month the proximity sensor broke so I had to send it back under warranty. I do want to flash it but I just want to make sure I can flash it back to stock without them knowing that I had rooted it?
If you flash an official "signed" HTC RUU then as far as HTC know its still under warranty.

Sorry for another noob question but is there a list where these official ROMs are available to download?
Look in the Dev section. One if the stickied posts "Desire HD files", has all the RUU's hosted. Make sure you flash the correct one.
How would I go about getting a signed RUU then? Sorry for these stupid sounding questions, I'm quite new to this)
but don't forget if you do radio s-off and super cid the stay on even after you install a ruu. someone is working on a tool to revert this process doh, i could be wrong on this, but that what i've read.
I'm pretty sure flashing an official HTC RUU will restore S-ON.
To flash a RUU ensure you have all the correct HTC drivers. Download & install HTC Sync for this.
Simply connect your DHD to your computer and run the RUU from your computer, just follow the prompts.

Yes, thanks, I think I've found the right one. I am with T-Mobile UK though there is none of the carrier's own branding so I think from the info on the phone that it must be "RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.6_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed". The only difference is the radio on the device has a "U" after the "e" and I cannot find the release number anywhere in the sofware info .
Sorry I don't know what versioning system HTC use with regard to ROMs & Radios. If your DHD came stock and unbranded to a particular carrier then you are correct with the WWE (World Wide English).
Could this stock rom be backed up with rom manager, then flashed back if need be? (BTW Andy, nice sig )
As per a forum member of XDA-Developers , he states that HTC Wildfire Which is soon to get its Official 2.2 Froyo Update , Is a good news for some , but will give tough times to others , other uses who wish to Root their Android Device.
In Details warriorvibhu Explains that HTC Wildfire will be provided with a OTA Update with HBoot , a Bootloader which would be harder to crack / modify in order to Root the device.

Downgrade???
Do you think the technical staffs of HTC com can downgrade this ROM to OS 2.1? They invent the upgrade utility software, so do you think they can do downgrade???? I am going to the warranty my device. How do you think so?
I am wondering the same, what would happen when I try to flash the 1.37 RUU back on the phone?
If you have upgraded to the offical Froyo either OTA or from RUU your stuck in a hole.
The update changed the bootloader in the Wildfire meaning it is currently impossible to root (which rules out custum ROMS) and you can't role back to a previous RUU because they are written with the old boot loader.
Thats what the original OP of this thread is about.....the fact that it could be a while before it's going to get re rooted via unrevoked or any other method.
So your just gonna have to wait until rooting is supported again by Unrevoked or some other app, or some clever sod figures out how to change the new Boot loader.
Hope someone figures it out soon :/

Hey,
I have a Wildfire 2.2 with 0.80.0002 HBOOT. Can i root it?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Update. I installed the drivers. Tried rooting with 3.14 and the new one. But they fail. The new one says " root failed. maybe your firmware is too new?" and 3.14 just says " root failed".
What could be wrong?
Maybe its because im on froyo? but my hboot is 0.80.0002 so i should get a root. Any suggestions? Maybe i should downgrade to 2.1. I would have an old firmware with an old hboot

Dude... I'm also using an x64 win7... firstly...use winrar to unpack the reflash package... extract it to someplace u can remember... jus install the drivers according to the instructions given in the 'hboot.html' file in the reflash folder.. its pretty easy... I always used to root my phone using this computer only ... never had a single problem... alternatively u could install HTC sync...( it will install the drivers ) and then remove it (only the application.. not the drivers).. and then try to root...

Then how is your HBOOT still at 0.80? Please confirm the same. As far as I am aware, nowhere on the earth (Except the old Chinese release), did the official Froyo release not update the HBOOT to 1.0x
Also, in such cases, apps like Super one click root can only give temporary / shell root, which is pointless really, as it does not help achieve perm root.
What all do you exactly see on your HBOOT Screen? (Power down your phone. Press Power + Vol Down simultaneously, and let me know what it shows)
Yup i have 2.2.1 software & my hboot is 0.80.0002. So how should i root then?

Its amazing how you have the old HBOOT after getting official 2.2.1
Anyway, if the method I posted doesnt work, cant help you anymore. Sorry. Only one more idea I get is to use an old version of Unrevoked, which you state you have already tried.
Pic
Heres the pic :3 taken with my moms desire
You should try downgrading, or manually pushing the recovery (follow link that 3xeno posted above). Rooting really shouldn't be this hard, lol. No version of Unrevoked will work with 2.2 AFAIK for root, as I've heard people flash a 2.1 RUU and then root. That's another option - flash a 2.1 RUU (NOT 2.2) and then unrevoked. its 99% guaranteed to work the first time, and i guess 99.999% guaranteed to work within 3 tries. (0.001 % just in case, lol )
edit: running a 2.1 RUU is probably the easiest way... you should try it.
Ok. I pushed recovery in the hboot menu. thing is . i have clockworkd mod iLol'ed.I forgot Okay so ill try to flash now... Wait for it... wait for it... well install is complete.
I remember now. When i tried to root it a month ago it installed the recovery but it did not root my phone. Now when its rooted(i think) it works!!! LOL

Flash a 1.32 RUU, then root and do s-off. Simple as that.
As Hawk said. You won't be able to actually preserve it, but have to root it again, as you will lose root by flashing stock.

what do you mean by "back to stock", if you wanna preserve "everything" it's not really stock!
but, i guess you could restore your nandroid backup... or do what guys above said so!
I assume he wants stock RUU ROM, no custom ROM or kernel, .... but with root intact.
He will lose the root by flashing stock RUU.
So just root again and not flash any custom kernels or custom ROM.
I don't know why, up to him, but he just asked the question, and we provided the answer.

If you are selling it I would guess IMPO, it is better unlocked anyway.
And the same goes for the ROM, I would advise the Ace_HTC_WWE, rather then the _Vodafone one, which proberly has a full of their blow-wear, as you must know what it was like when you purchased it.
But like anything else, the choice is your.

Follow part of this downgrade thread. You need to DL the PD98IMG.zip file.
As you already have root, skip the adb temp root part, and follow this copied directly from the above guide;
•Put PD98IMG.zip to your SD card. Do not put the file into a folder...... Do not extract
•Reboot while holding volume down, it will go to the bootloader
•Follow the instructions (start the update)
•Done. You can now proceed with old S-OFF methods, and remove the PD98IMG.zip from your SD. I recommend Radio S-OFF for new users.
Then,
Follow this guide for temp/permroot with [URL="http://android.modaco.com/content/software/320350/19-nov-r14-visionary-one-click-root/"]visionary and S-off[/URL] using
Easy Radio Tool DL Link at end of 2nd post
Then,
Follow this guide for ENG S-off using the
Easy S-off tool DL link at bottom of page
Hope this helps, just make sure you read every in full at least twice.

•Done. You can now proceed with old S-OFF methods, and remove the PD98IMG.zip from your SD. I recommend Radio S-OFF for new users.
Then,
Follow this guide for temp/permroot with [URL="http://android.modaco.com/content/software/320350/19-nov-r14-visionary-one-click-root/"]visionary and S-off[/URL] using
Easy Radio Tool DL Link at end of 2nd post
Then,
Follow this guide for ENG S-off using the
Easy S-off tool DL link at bottom of page
Hope this helps, just make sure you read every in full at least twice.

umm not sure if you understand where i am, im on a custom rom already mate, im going back to stock, i dont need to downgrade
Well when you follow Upintheair's instructions, you get a stock ROM, and it is not really a downgrade because you do not have to use the command line commands. You do not have to run the radio s-off tool, though. Just run ENG S-OFF tool.
The other way is to flash Raidroid Stockify series ROM, it is a rooted stock ROM that you can flash in clockworkmod.

Flashing a radio is risky operation that can render you device inoperable, so you have to provide md5sum to assure integrity of the file

Thank you for all the effort but this 26.14 radio file, including the flashing method, can be found from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877295. Download link for it is still up (confirmed).
And yes, you should always include the MD5 sums.

THanks ill backup and then flash radio
Xeleth said:
Backing up your device (nandroid) will not actually back up your radio. In case you lose connectivity
and it's not about the RIL, you need to reflash the original one.
I'd recommend you don't flash this radio unless you have problems with device connectivity.

Ohh ok, thanks for the info btw.
Guys can anyone help me get the radio flashed on my Desire HD, the phone had a lot of problems and may have a hardware fault, but I want to flash the Radio, I had already flashed the ROM which fixed a lot, its on a as close to standard rom as possible its running 2.3.5 but the radio version is very very old and much older then another Desire HD I have that works perfectly.
I have done so many of the ways to do the flash of the Radio files but I have not got one of them to work, I also cant work out how to get Eng s-Off, I have S-Off already.
If i just download this file and put on sd in root nothing happens when I reboot into the hboot, I have also tried the fast flash and abt.
any advice

When you reboot into bootloder Wait min 30sec and don't press any button after that you see radio IMG find by your device then press volume up key and flash the radio....
Every Radio IMG install through this method......

Ok so when I boot it and leave it it does flash up quickly wih green writing that says something like "wrong image"
I have a HTC Desire HD - and I downloaded the PD98IMG.zip for it, I have tried a few different once (ones off different sites that are the same thing).
With adb and all the other ones they don't work as Eng S-off is not on as they are windows based terminal ones and I cant get it off the onclick E-Off does not work (but it looks pretty old and probably does not work on 2.3.5.

Where did you get the PD98IMG.zip? Any file can be renamed to that, and most people do so that it's compatible with flashing from hboot, but that still doesn't tell me what the file is.

Huh? I believe you don't need Eng S-Off to flash radios, just S-Off. And what does windows based terminal have to do with anything? And does fastboot work?
Just used this image to restore my radio back to stock . This has fixed my gps because I had accidentally flashed a Inspire 4G Radio on a Desire HD. This file is not the flashable bootloader zip it is to be flashed in bootloader with adb.

You do need ENG-Soff (Engineer S-OFF) this is because the radio partition is not flashable due to restrictions with the Hboot.
Ok I have tried the radio file from this post, I have tried about 3 others from other posts all with the same version of Radio as the one of this file as its the ones working right on my other htc desire hd's.
As far as I have read you need Eng S-Off to do this remote of the device (as I mentioned Windows Terminal Screen that connects to the phone) wihout Eng S-Off you dont have the permission to do it from your PC.
So the .zip file on boot up is not working and I cant seem to get Eng S-Off either (I have tried a few guides but no luck so far).
Hi, is there a way to flash radio with S-ON? Thank you.

No. S-ON prevents you from doing that

You don't need ENG S-OFF to flash a radio but just S-OFF. the engineering hboot allows you to run flash commands in terminal but the important stuff is to have security partition off.

Sorry for this question, noob here
My actual Radio (as I see it in the bootloader) is 12.10.04.03_M, for the numbers I'm not sure if this will be compatible and I don't want to screw up my phone.
Is safe for me to flash this radio? (yes, i'm S-OFF)

Okay so I got this desire HD today. Everything seems okay except 3g connectivity. When I switch network to Gsm only or Gsm/Wcdma, I get edge network. But when I switch to wcdma only, I loose network.
So my question is:
Could it be a radio problem??
Could flashing the radio fix this?
I have S off
And I live in an area with 3g coverage.(Because I used to have 3g coverage with my old My touch 4g).
