[Q] Latest official ROM to use for debranding on wildfire?

hi all
i got 3 branded wildfire and want to debrand it, before i do, is this the latest official rom to use?
RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.25.405.1_Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35 .15.3
1_release_142189_signed.exe
i,m not bothered about rooting etc, just want stable unbranded phone
cheers

Thats Eclair. If you want FroYo, there are safe ROM's (With just the HBOOT Removed) on the Wildfire Android Development Forum. (2.22.405 and 2.25.720)
That apart, if you want to stick with Eclair, 1.37 is the latest one.

thanks for the reply
i,m not bothered about froyo yet as i,m sure that will be done automatically when times comes but for now i'll stick eclair.
is there a link or anything where i can get 1.37 to use for debranding similar to the 1.25 above.
cheers

Yes, that's the latest Eclair. But remember, if you do get Eclair, and then, get FroYo via the official OTA update, you will lose root capability.
It can be found here:

hi
thanks for getting back to me, ermm i,m not really bothered about root.
as long as the phone is stable and works perfectly i,m happy, but i do understand i have to use unrevoked 1st so i can use the above rom.
thanks

[Q] XTC Clip and 2.2.1

Hi everyone.
I have a two questions about the XTC clip that I can't find an answer to using search.
When I purchased the phone it came with the unrootable hboot and Android 2.2.1.
I have sourced a HTC clip and will be unlocking my Wildfire today. Once unlocked will I need to flash an older version of hboot - to then allow me to install a custom rom? or can I just install a custom rom as soon as it's done?
My second question is has anyone actually done this and can confirm it works?
Thanks!

xtc clip -> s-off ->
downgrade phone with ruu rom -> hboot 0.8 ->
unrEVOked for root ->
costum rom.

The phone is now set to s off!
Know where I can get the Rom to downgrade?
Thanks!

Dude it is a HARDWARE BOX!

aman_idrish
you really need to stop what youre doing. If you already could read, you would already know that you cant download xtc clip. Its an item you BUY on http://www.xtcclip.com and not a piece of software.
And NO it does not help asking the same questions 10 times, and then starting making private messages to people asking the same questions.
Now, start to grow up, use the search buttom and search for help, like the most of us. If you cant do that then I'm not sure you should ever bought a phone like android where you can make so many changes.
If you ever get it rooted, what can we then experience from you ? Questions about how you repair it from the disasters you have applied it ?
So start searching...... the answers are there including those you ask all the time. They have been answered.

@3xeno
can you tell me where i can download a softice, i'm really in the mood for one, but i cant find anything about it even though i've searched the forum ???? pls
p.s. it's not really hardware, its soft-ice

Cheers mate, Will get one installed now!

glad to hear you're getting a phone thats rooted again

Actually,
I have absolutely no idea which one I need to install! I assume it will be one below 2.2 from the UK but that's where I get lost!
Help is appreciated
Thanks for the input so far!

I think this will take you back to the first official rom of wildfire

Thanks,
Downloading it at the moment - Thanks very much for the help. So I'm right in thinking this will downgrade my current hboot to a previous version - which will then let me install Cyanogen and other custom roms?
This is my first HTC phone so I have never actually rooted one before!
Hope this works.

youre welcome, glad to have been able to help

No need of downgrade or Unrevoked if already S-OFF
Sorry to "disappoint" you guys but there is no need to downgrade & Unrevoked at all, if the smart is set to S-OFF.
Explanation is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12188132&postcount=15
NOTE: The method is successfully tested on several smarts.
If you want to suck the MAX of Wildfire try CyanogenMod 7 RC2 (need to reflash the radio to fix GPS), or better wait a while for stable release - coming soon.

hi there everyone,
I had been a keen follower of xda n other communities for the SGSII however, due to being really busy and commitments, I have not been in touch with the SGSII world for the last two-three months...
I have been running litening rom version 2 (just shows how out of date I am ) but now I need to get back to the stock rom...
I know how to flash and am not a newbie when it comes to odin, download mode etc however, I would be grateful to whoever can point to the most recent version of the stock ROM and also the link to the thread where I can download it from...I know its in android development but no idea exactly where...
I have a UK SGS2 originally locked to o2 but now unlocked (thanks to o2..)..
..thanks a lot!!!

[Q] Rom/Kernel for U8800-51, AT&T Impulse 4G

I come from the HTC Incredible, just trying to help out a friend.
I successfully rooted his Impulse using super one click, and installed CWM recovery just fine for the U8800-51. Next I was planning on installing a custom ROM and kernel, but it appears there are none for the U8800-51 correct? Because it is just ever so slightly different that if you flash a U8800 ROM it can/will brick it.
I don't believe it's a "pro" because it still has the MSM7230 @ 800MHz.
So, question is, are there any that support the U8800-51? I've searched around, and didn't find any. So I assume there isn't. Just making sure I didn't miss anything. This Huawei is quite different from the HTC devices I'm used to.

There is no custom rom as of right now.. We have been discussing here

Alright, that's what I thought. Thanks for the reply.
I think he's going to go back to the store and exchange it for an HTC Inspire anyway.

Gingerbread For U8800-51
So, i flashed this rom update from Huawei, and it did not work (many have said this). A side-effect of this is that now, i cannot take it back or update to another rom, because i am unable to root this phone due to the e: drive not showing up when i go into recovery mode. Can anyone help with this??
I have:
ATT Impulse 4g aka U8800-51
Gingerbread 2.3.5 from Huawei
Thanks!

U8800-51 rom
I found this copy of CM7 searching the web. It says its for the U8800pro, I've installed it on my U8800-51. Everything works so far but the only trouble I'm having is it reboots when I lock the screen??? Can anyone help? I'm not a developer, so if lamest terms can be used I would appreciate it. Also I take no credit for this ROM, credit goes to Genokolar.

To eliminate the random reboots u have to flash official U8800pro Gingerbread update, but u may lose 3G (im using MIUI 2.1.20 in my U8800-51, and in Chile with the U8800pro baseband we lose the 3G, dunno in USA, in Brazil they dont have this "bug").

Moved To Q&A​

Thank you.
Can you put a link up for the Gingerbread update for the U8800pro? Also, is this OK to use on U8800-51(AT&T Impulse 4G)? And would I just flash it like normal with CWM Recovery?
Sent from my Huawei U8800-51 using XDA

we are stuck for right now
all the AT&T phones (u8800-51) that tried gingerbread made a mistake.
there are many problems with it. network, wifi, bluetooth etc.
We are all waiting on a true u8800-51 root to take us to stock 2.2.2
there is one going around now but it is a non AT&T u8800pro rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1367633
lots of us are having the same problem, but it will be resolved soon.
So for right now just enjoy the beautiful yet useless ginger bread
and we will find an original u8800-51 Impluse 4g rom soon.

I flashed the rom you linked and you do not get 3G on the U8800-H1. I tried forcing 3G and it wouldn't work.

[Q] Should I buy Defy+, considering no downgrade?

Hey all, well I wanna buy defy+ but have read all over the places that defy+ can't be downgraded. What if I installed ICS/CM9, will be be able to get back to normal sbf?
Am not noob, but confused, also tell me more things that I must know
Thanks in advance

can you link me to the thread, or some procedures. How can I get back to the stock ?
thanks

If you install ice cream sandwich, there won't be any troubles because it's not an actual upgrade (in the sense that only /system dir and the kernel will change). Thus, you just have to flash the right sbf in order to go back to defy+ official android build.
Use RSD Lite to flash a sbf.
SBF list: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966537
RSD Lite: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1100585

Direct Answer: You can go ahead and buy the Defy+.
You should be able to use Gingerbread with absolutely no problems. And there is no point in downgrading to Froyo.
And once, ICS is out, you may work with either Gingerbread or ICS.
PS: Motorola just released the entire source code for Gingerbread.
