Not able to root my DHD - Desire HD General

Guys -
i am newbie in these rooting stuffs, i tried to root my DHD, but now stuck in the very first step...
I installed VISIOnary+ in DHD and set USB debuggin ON.
checked "set system r/w after root" and selected temproot now.
it says rooting your device and after 2min, only black screen..nothing happens.
I waited for 10min, but the same black screen.
So, rebooted and everything was normal(as a un-rooted device).
any help what wrong i did or how to rectify this problem.
Thanks

Hi,
you need to downgrade to 1.32 before to gain root.

Place on SD Card and use recovery or ROM Manager to install ROM.
Wipe data (factory wipe) before each ROM.

I have flashed the custom Rom, but the volume seems to be muted. The other person in the call s not able to hear me. Neither does the voice recorder picks up any sound. S there any setting to turn on?

[Q] Backup Wildfire with shipped rom

Hello. I need to make a backup for my Wildfire with its shipped ROM. I tried to do it by the usual way:
Shut down
Volume down + Power
Recovery..
And when I selected recovery an image with the phone with a red "!".
The question is: Can I create a backup of my phone (including OS) without unrevoked tool or other root tools?
Thanks
AFAIK it is not possible to create a backup without a custom recovery, so root is needed.
Can you not get hold of a HTC RUU you can install if/when you need to revert to stock?

I installed Wildpuzzle ROM and GPS did not work. So I got my ROM from shipped-roms.com/shipped/Buzz/
Now I need to be safe with my phone's operating system. I have the installer of the shipped ROM but I am asking if its possible to make a backup on my SD card without root tools.

Once rooted your warrenty will be gone.
I myself used RUU to get rid of a buggy phone yesterday. Used Unrevoked to root and use Custom Roms and that can cause your phone to not boot when you charge it when it is off.
So back to default ROM without root. Hopefully that will restore my warrenty also?

Do you have S-OFF?
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
i tried to do it, but i find some many guides about that, and i read that this can brick my dhd, so I didnt do it.
is it necessary?
Yep, you need it. Use my radio S-OFF tool, it is easy as pie. Nobody has bricked a DHD using my tool yet, the possibility of bricking is basically zero. You can find a link in my signature.
and how do i check that i have s-off??
i have done this s-off, but my phone is on the initial booting logo, htc and after the vodafone animation, and it is going over and over again.
thanks people for help. i had this that press vol - and power and you get into advance settings, then factory reset, then again root, and now is working.
thanks
solved
check my guide. regarding the ! sign, did you use "Flash clockworkmod recovery" BEFORE tapping on "reboot into recovery"?
I had that problem too but then I did s-off and clockworkmod worked. Now I need radio s-off , and I need help with choosing right radio to flash.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
You need to have the radio which comes with the 1.32 you have installed.
Then use the Easy Radio tool v2.2 to make the Radio S-Off
Then you can flash the radio you need (the recommended one for the rom you are going to install) using fastboot (some tutorials there).
Hy, need some help please!
I rooted my phone, and do the s-off, and install custom rom. but what is eng s-off?
when I go to boot i have " ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF"
Do I have to make eng s-off or what or can I use my phone like that?
tnx
I'm sure if you have a little look on the forums you'll get the answer you're looking for...

ENG S-OFF is not essential, unless you want to flash a new radio although it is recommended to have it. Look in the Dev section, there is a very good tool to use.

HTC Desire HD 2.3 update problem

Hi,
I'm in the UK and had the 2.3 update notification a couple hours ago. I have downloaded it and after clicking install I get an exclamation mark with a green Android robot on my screen and nothing happens.
Anyone else getting this?
Just some background info. I have stock Sense Android 2.2 which I have used Visionary to perm root with S-OFF. I have used Visionary to unroot and used the app called Root Checker to see if I am rooted and it says I am not rooted.
Do I need to get S-OFF back on aswell and if so how?

Do you have a recovery?, i dont know if this would work but it did work for me before, have you tried flashing it within the recovery?
I haven't no I was recommended to follow these instructions to get rooted and S-OFF to get apps like Adfree etc working
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857537
I have undone Visionary so I am not rooted anymore but the 2.3 update wont install.
Would this be because of S-OFF still being off do you think and needs to go back on?

Yeah you would need S-OFF to be not off to install updates the normal way
cashisback, you are wrong. S-OFF does not matter. Get the official 2.36.405.8 RUU from the dev subforum and install it.
It is because you remove some preinstalled apps such as Amazon MP3,News etc. I did it myself and i had to reinstall stock RUU.and then it worked. It worked even with S-OFF. I still have S-OFF after update. Good Luck.
I haven't uninstalled any preinstalled apps.
All I have done is simply following those instructions to get rooted with Visionary and S-OFF so apps like Adfree, Drocap2 etc to work.
So instead of getting the OTA over wifi I have to now flash to a stock RUU? I haven't even flashed an RUU before, any help with that would be good.

@jkoljo I have a stock RUU on my phone, can I not just do the latter part of these instructions?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857537
To go back to S-ON:
Temproot using Visionary
Use my tool, do Stock CID and S-ON (enter brand CID if you had a branded device, see second post)
Enjoy your factory-state phone
And then update to 2.3 via OTA?
Edit: I tried it, it doesnt seem to be possible to get S-OFF back on using the tool?
Thanks for making me aware of this thread, OP!
My phone is ENG/S OFF and I'm using the stock rom. I'm quite certain that I haven't uninstalled any stock apps so I don't think that's related.
Regarding S-OFF: If this was the cause (and I cannot really see how it could be - but I'm at most a layman at this), there would be many more users getting this error, right?
Just to add what I've written in the main 2.3 update thread:
When entering CWM I get this error message regarding the OTA update:
Code:
ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.0.6
Finding update package...
E:unknown volume for path [SDCARD:download/OTA_Ace_....zip]
E:Can't mount SDCARD:download/OTA_Ace_....zip
Installation aborted.
I've abbreviated the name of the file. It might be/is a stupid idea but... might the file name be too long (90 characters) for some weird format of my/our SD card? Rights: drw, format should be FAT32 - any idea how to check this on the phone?
Sorry for probably not making much sense

You cannot flash OTA in clockworkmod, come on..
Make sure that you have Radio S-OFF and then use Gingerbread RUU.
@jkoljo I see your point obviously still will be able to get rooted apps working in 2.3.
But I'm complete new to all this flashing RUU stuff.
Which thread is this RUU that I need and how do you flash the DHD?
The HTC Desire HD I have is unlocked sim free and I am in the UK if that makes any difference. My current software version is the 1.32.405.6 one which I think is the world wide version.

Then you will imagine my surprise when after pressing the power button briefly (while the triangle was shown) CWM was shown. Is it possible that I have to 'deactivate' it for the OTA to install itself?
(I'm currently running 1.72.405.3)
I am currently in the same boat as you same error as well.
Thanks for pointing me this way same issue here. If I'd have known it was gonna cause FOTA issues I wouldn't have bothered with root as I only wanted it for root explorer to regain the standard lock screen and thought that I'd do the Radio S-OFF and and SUPERCID in case HTC didn't live up to their word.
Chuffin annoying to say the least.
i keep getting the signature verification failure
Anyone know how to get passed this verification error? Thats what I'm having too. Click install update and on reboot theres an exclamation mark which stays there.
I've updated CWM to the latest version and tried the OTA installation again. Same triangle error after reboot, no option to get to the CWM screen and only the removal of the battery helped to restart the phone. This probably doesn't help but I thought to let you know.
I'd have used the RUU already (or another ROM) but I'm a bit hesitant of having to reconfigure my device completely again. Besides, there should be an easy solution for this problem. There always is

i'm in Australia, and have Desire HD by Vodafone, and all i have done is permroot with visionary in order to have superuser access to be able to run Samba server on my phone.
OTA update by Vodafone is still not avail, but I wonder now, if I will be facing any kind of problem while updating ?? (p.s. only super user access is taken and only visionary was used, phone still has stock rom and no modifications)
Just so everyone is aware if having this problem. I flashed my DHD with the stock 1.32 the same as what was originally on my DHD and then was able to get the 2.3 update without any problem which I currently am on.
Alternative if you still want root and S-OFF probably be worth flashing with the leaked Gingerbread ROM from 1.32 with root and S-OFF already done. I may try this, does anyone know if there is a .zip of it so can flash from SD card?

Noob Qustions about Rooting

I'm new at this so i got all these noob qustions
First my DHD have built 2.42 with Arabic Regional Support ?
so
Do i need A Gold card ?
How do i know if my phone is S-Off or Not ??
What the best way to S-Off , Radio S-Off or Eng S-Off ?
When i downgrade will i loss my stock ROM ?
or i'll lose it at S-Off or rooting ?
Can i backup my stock ROM before i start rooting?
Rooting can mean radio off or/and eng off. Refer to desire HD development for rooting. Different build requires different ways to root.
Gold card, you will need one if your downgrading a branded phone. Branded phone includes any network locked phones and also unlocked phones. Even if you buy your phone out right from somewhere, there's still a big chance that it was locked previously. You will know when it says incorrect CID when your downgrade in bootloader.
Either radio or eng off allows you to flash any custom ROM, for beginners its recommended to have radio as its easier, while enthusiast have eng off, but most of the time, both. However to flash a radio, the recommended way is to have both off
The question about backing up your current ROM. After you root, go download a recovery app namely ROM manager which lets you back up your current ROM, meaning you can restore your stock ROM anytime you want. Hope that clears up a bit.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
You only need a goldcard if your dhd is network branded.
If you havent done anything to it yet it will have S-on
All the information you need is in the first post of this thread Link
If you downgrade it you will get a clean stock rom, losing all the data you havent backed up eg contacts, apps, app data. Anything on your sd card will be unaffected and you can use mybackup (30 Day Trial/Full Version/Root Version) to backup you data (but not app data because you dont have root).
Root your phone and use the root version (also free) to restore the backup. It restores with one click but the non-root versions need you to confirm each app installation.
First i'd like to thank u for ur reply , its very helpful
So i got this facts now, Correct me if i'm wrong
1- The best is to have both Radio and Eng S-off
2- I only need Gold Card if get incorrect CID
3- Downgrade , S-off and Rooting , wont replace my Stock ROM and i can back it up
Using ROM manager
4- I can backup my Info Using mybackup
Is this information correct ?

That is correct. But if you have to choose between eng off or radio off, radio off is a better choice because it's more permanent. You can still remove it whenever you want

i think downgrading does replace your stock rom, just with another stock rom. but it'll be like a brand new phone out of the box after you downgrade, everything will be wiped.
i did the downgrade using the link posted above, and i didn't realise it would do that. I thought i could downgrade, root, back up, flash rom, restore. turns out i should've backed up before downgrade.

after you have downgraded, you could always do an OTA update. so essentially its still the stock ROM that your phone came with.

If your radio off, no, you don't have to root again. Radio off is one of the most permanent thing you can do to your phone. However you can still radio off anytime you want.
However, if your only eng off, you might have to, depending on what version of bootloader you upgraded to.

Comments on your steps.
1. i havent actually personally tried mybackup. but you do realise restoring apps and data from your stock to a custom ROM is different than restoring it onto a stock RUU, simply because custom ROMs might run slightly different. but by all means, try it. i am sure thats not enough to break your phone. you might have to redownload some of the apps tho.
another interesting thing to add is, gmail syncs your contact your email. after a fresh flash, all you have to do is resync. it doesnt give back your msges tho.
3. format your sdcard to fat32. this is important because larger sd cards default format cant be read by bootloader.
6. rooting can be divided into 2 types, eng-off and radio-off. what your doing here is an eng off procedure. skip step 9 all together.
7. make sure you radio off since you will be updating to OTA. some OTA breaks eng off, but radio off would still remain.
10. you might have to eng off (radio off would remain) again if you do an OTA update. i suggest moving step 6 after step 11
keep us posted on your status. good luck.

6. yup, that guide gives you eng off and proceed to step 7 to radio off. skip 9 since its the same as step 6
10. oops, sorry my bad, i meant move it after 10. but it doesnt matter really, since you have radio off (the permanent one), you can even backup stock ROM before you try to eng off. remember, radio off is also one kind of rooting and its 'permanent'

Looks good. But I can't personally vouch for it since i never use his frevo toolkit before. But from what I can guess it's just automated script to run adb commands. So it should be safe. I say go ahead and enjoy rooting and flashing and tweaking and so on.

Hello, the other day I Root my HTC Wildfire with revolutionary. And installed honeyfire-alpha-2 onto my HTC Wildfire. And when I tryed to connect it to my computer nothing happens. The only thing that comes up on my phone that it says its charging and thats all. I have tryed to remove the honeyfire-alpha-2 and nothing happens, and one more thing I got it of this site the honeyfire-alpha-2 Root App. If anyone can help me bring my phone back to stock that would be very helpfull. Thanks!...

Honeyfire is an experimental rom, so I wouldn't even try it. However, its quite easy to get back to a stock configuration..even if you haven't backed up. First, download a safe-flash zip of a froyo ruu. Then go into CWM. Do a wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache too. Then flash the safe-flash zip. Then you'd be back to stock.

if i can correct your words..
u didnt root your phone with revolutionary.. honestly the "rooting" is very close to hoax..
if u used revolutionary u got full S-OFF (Security-Off) and new recorvery system (Revolutionary ClockworkMod Recovery 4.0.1.4)
S-OFF gives u opportunity to:
Flash new OS
Flash new radio
Disable SIM lock
"Rooting" is on turn when u have installed OS and u need to gain root permissions.. thats all..
back to your problem...
and lets start with a question..
did u backup your original OS ? if yes.. coming back is easy..
if no (thats smart)... u will always depend on some downloaded file.........
(suppose that u have access only to one same phone)
...but this all is just about the sources
because.... WHAT DO U REALLY WANT ?
do u want to stay S-OFF with ClockworkMod Recovery but with original OS ?
or u want to S-ON with that Stock Recovery thing and with original OS ?
Edit:
btw if this

Try to download RUU WWE(world wide english), and install it.
You will stay S-OFF, but if you are S-off with revolutinary try this:

Easy to do all that things so you won't have problems(I hope).
