Ah, I see what you mean. Isn't that normal, seeing as how you're just flashing stock and not actually upgrading your firmware.

Yes, this is why Im looking some metode to change misc version to cheat OS that this file will upgrade whole system and all elements are in newer version then that on the phone.
I have do this couple times in my Desire Z using misc_version file, but this is not working on this phone.
Any ideas?
I got root on it and can execute root commands on adb shell, so only need to know what to change.

There is no possible to put firmware prepared as a ZIPed ISO images (strictly for bootloader) to put from recovery.

The worst thing is... that I put Custom recovery, then apply custop rom (G1320110824XDA.zip) from forum, and when right now want to put stock rom from recovery, stil updating BOOTLOADE and RADIOs, nothing else.
Will try some other thing...

Done!
I have download

from forum got some bug on it, and recovery dont recognize it correctly.
Just to be sure...
After putting 1.30 rom, I try to put 1.33 on update in recovery, and also, only BOOTLOADER and RADIOs got updated.
So, if you want to debrand, you need to use 1.30, then try to update your system over air (OTA) to newest version. I think that will be easier.

Need to retrun back to Stock on HTC Desire HD(Indian)

I need help on reverting my Desire HD back to stock.
For this I understand I need to flash stock ROM (RUU). In this case I need to flash RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.720.5 which is the Indian version for DHD.
However, I am unable to find this RUU.
When installing a custom rom after having rooted my phone I did take a backup using rom manager. So I do have a backup of Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.720.5 which I can restore ... but I will still have root.
Question: Is there a way to remove root after I restore the backup and also remove ClockworkMod's recovery?
If the above is possible I can then update my phone to the latest firmware from HTC which I guess is 1.84.720.3.
Please help..

Shouldn't do, I once tried something similar and everything was okay? The OTA's installed as they should. The problem is the RRU you require hasn't actually been released which is a shame as I would expect Shipped-Roms to have a copy.

This is not the first time... I had a similar problem with HTC Hero, the Indian(Airtel base) rom was never released for download and when rooting the first time I did not take a backup of the original rom coz of which I was unable to update using the OTA.
So you saying I should go ahead with the unroot process and the OTA can then be applied? I really want to do this since I am flashing my phone every alternate day with a new rom released at XDA.. either 2.2.1 or 2.3.. need to stop doing that .. atleast for a few months till HTC releases a stable 2.3 sense rom for DHD.

vickyclewis.. thanks for the direct file download... will check it out once out of office.
Also the steps mentioned for flashing this.... I found the below in one of your post:
=====================================================
PD98IMG's cannot be flashed via CWM Recovery. Rename the zip to "PD98IMG.zip" and place in the root of your SD card (not in any folder).
Turn off your phone, disable HTC Fastboot if it's enabled, and power on holding Volume Down. This should start the Bootloader and it should read the PD98IMG.zip and flash it for you.
=====================================================
I guess you need to mention that the user has to get to the bootloader to install this...
Thanks once again..

Can any one tell why we dont have a RUU release like the one available for HTC Inspire 4G in HTC US website I could not find any such link for HTC Desire HD India

Yes, it is Sense 2.1. Only lockscreen is added.
Now that's just stupid...
Fastboot oem still doesn't work. So, HTCDev method is a no-go for now.
But, we got an OTA update atleast.
I'm now pretty confident that we're gonna get our bootloaders unlocked soon enough.
I still hate them for updating it so late, but atleast they updated the phone.

Make sure when you connect your phone you select htc sync mode. And make sure if htc sync opens on your pc you close it properly from the task bar not just the htc sync window because it will still be running and you will find errors as i did.

How to Obtain 2.3 RUU From HTC Developers Site

Well, I wrote this a couple of times and it gets more boring every time. Also, the link in Bortak's guide is not working so if someone needs it here you go:
-go to HTC developers site
http://htcdev.com/
-go to KERNEL SOURCE CODE section
-configure filter by DEVICE (choose Desire)
-mark OTHER below
-click on FIND FILES
-and there you go, the first file is 2.3 upgrade utility.
Not that hard?

You need to extract the exe from the file. The exe is buried two levels deep in a zip.Thereafter run the exe from PC with the phone connected. But before you run the RUU ensure your phone is stock hboot. If it is a alpharev hboot then flash the downgrader hboot from alpharev.nl. Thereafter the "unlock" will appear on bootloader. Then you can run the RUU. You will lose root and soff after RUU.
If you want to again root after this then you have to follow the steps given in revolutionary.io.

I have just found my old HTC Desire (GSM) again.
Now I would like to install an Android 4.4 or 5.0 Rom on it, but for this I have to S-OFF it and install a custom recovery on it.
Is it still possible? As the most tools are down? And if yes, could someone give me the needed links etc? Thanks.

Have searched for hours. :/

[Q] Can't return to stock with RUU. Help?

Hello all,
My wife has the Virgin Mobile version (CDMA) HTC One V. She wanted me to install a new ROM for her. I've had ROMs on it before, but she got the OTA from Virgin Mobile and didn't tell me. Well I've been trying to put all sorts of different ROMs on it, and everyone has had the bootloop bug. I traced it down to the radio being updated to 1.00.00.0928. I've found posts saying to get the RUU, extract the rom.zip and rename it to PK76IMG then put that in the root of the SD card, then let HBOOT take care of it. It fails every time. Flashing recovery_signed.img and then running the RUU also fails. Well, come to find out my HBOOT version is 1.57 and as far as I can tell I'm screwed.
Am I screwed guys? I mean do I have any options in getting a working phone out of this? I'd be happy just to get it back to stock, but at this point it's looking like I have a nice paperweight that lights up.
If there is any help or info you guys could give me I'd be very appreciative. Thanks in advance.

try to use fastboot mode.
start the ruu on windows, before pressing any buttons, start a search window.. in the top of the search window ( like you are going to type a www. address) type %temp% and hit enter. on the top of the search, you will see two folders that have many nunbers and letters for the name. in one of them you will find a "rom" zip extract it and inside you will find recovery_signed.img. put it in your fastboot folder
put your phone in fastboot and fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
now run the ruu utility

start the ruu on windows, before pressing any buttons, start a search window.. in the top of the search window type %temp% and hit enter. on the top of the search, you will see two folders that have many nunbers and letters for the name. in one of them you will find a "rom" zip extract it and inside you will find recovery_signed.img. put it in your fastboot folder
put your phone in fastboot and fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
now run the ruu utility

Thanks for the reply. Sadly, I've already tried that. Same sort of error. It gets through the signature check and then when it reaches the HBOOT part of the installation it gives me the error saying I have the incorrect version of the RUU, but I'm using the same RUU I've used in the past with no issues.
I really don't have a good answer. Maybe try one of the new ion kernel ROMs that support the new radio
phone: HTC EVO 3d flashed to cricket
H-Boot: Jbear 1.50
ROM: Dirty Unicorns
phone: HTC one v cricket
rooted and romed
ROM: provisions

Hello all,
My wife has the Virgin Mobile version (CDMA) HTC One V. She wanted me to install a new ROM for her. I've had ROMs on it before, but she got the OTA from Virgin Mobile and didn't tell me. Well I've been trying to put all sorts of different ROMs on it, and everyone has had the bootloop bug. I traced it down to the radio being updated to 1.00.00.0928. I've found posts saying to get the RUU, extract the rom.zip and rename it to PK76IMG then put that in the root of the SD card, then let HBOOT take care of it. It fails every time. Flashing recovery_signed.img and then running the RUU also fails. Well, come to find out my HBOOT version is 1.57 and as far as I can tell I'm screwed.
Am I screwed guys? I mean do I have any options in getting a working phone out of this? I'd be happy just to get it back to stock, but at this point it's looking like I have a nice paperweight that lights up.
If there is any help or info you guys could give me I'd be very appreciative. Thanks in advance.

Before you RUU back to stock make sure you relock your bootloader by fastboot oem lock then go back go fastboot and launch the RUU

There was just another ota on virgin other than the new radio one...it may be the cause of the problem. Crappy part is it adds nothing, just have to stick with beyond's or Simon's codefirex. Also someone just uploaded a kernel that works with the new radio for myone, I highly recommend it.

Also if you want to return you need to relock the phone (as said before) flash back the stock recovery (you did that) AND flash back the ORIGINAL kernel (nobody said that but this is needed too).
You can get the stock kernel from the RUU you have downloaded the same way as the recovery image. Search for the boot.img or boot_signed.img and of course flash it from fastboot mode.
Try it, hopefully it will work.

I don't think u need to flash the original kernel just the recovery as the RUU installs the original kernel for you

I know you have to relock... I've flashed the ruu at least 3 times on mine and my sister's I was just saying because there is another ota update, not just the one updating the radio. But another one after as well that comes with this sprint 4g message. I'll try and downgrade again for the sake of curiosity. I'll get back to you guys soon.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys, but I'm still unable to get it back to stock. The HBOOT in the RUU is older than the one on the phone so it won't allow the RUU to work.
Is there a way to rollback/downgrade the HBOOT?

Yes, so your hboot and radio are updated
is this the ruu you used?

That's the ruu I usually use, and I can confirm...after the latest ota on virgin you won't be able to downgrade back. It updates the hboot.

That is messed up if they aren't able to downgrade this

It wouldn't be too bad if we could get Simon's radio fix on every kernel, the data speeds are noticeably faster with the otas so I don't mind much.

Yeah that's the one. Unless I'm mistaken it's the only one available to download.
Same Problem
Nothing substantial to add. Just wanted to say that I'm experiencing the exact same problem. I've got the CDMA HTC One V that I flashed with the latest RhythmicROM. It booted up fine but quickly manifested the boot loop. I tried restoring to my CWM backup, but that gets stuck in the boot loop too (does that sound right?) I followed the instructions in the "ROM Randomly Rebooting?" thread in the General Forum, but encountered the same error when trying to run the RUU. I used the following RUU: (RUU_PRIMO_C_ICS_40A_Sprint_WWE_VM_1.08.652.6_Radio _1.00.00.0521_2_NV_VM_3.46_0503_PRL61008_release_2 62414_signed.exe). I have the updated radio (updated to 1.00.00.0928), and the updated HBOOT (1.57).
A couple people have mentioned ROMs that support the new radio. Can someone let us know exactly which ones those are?
Thanks!
Edit:
Just noticed that the RhythmicROM does say it has support for the new radio. I didn't add that up until just now. I'm hoping that it will work.
Edit 2:
I was able to get the Rhythmic ROM working successfully with the OTA Fix that is listed and linked to in his thread. The OTA_fix.zip file contains an updated version of boot.img that I flashed (using fastboot) after installing the ROM.
Simon's and beyond's codefirex both work, as does the cdma myone. It just depends on the kernel you can use for the rom. Most devs started using Simon's fix so we should be pretty good moving forward.

So I've been trying some of the ROMs and kernels you guys suggested. They boot into Android and I get a popup that says Android is updating... optimizing file 1 of 394 or whatever... It gets through a few of those and reboots. I let it go all the way through until there were no more files that needed to be optimized and... reboots endlessly.

[Q] HTC One X update hboot CID HTCCN701

Hello everyone,
I have an international HTC One X with CID HTCCN701, and I would like to install CM10.1.
I am not a noob , and I have already installed a Jelly Bean ROM after unlocking. However, I am currently on hboot version 1.12 S-ON Unlocked, and I could not find a hboot that is for my CID which fits the requirements (Version 1.28 or higher)
Moreover, though I know how to flash hboot, it would be great if anyone can provide a method to update hboot without changing the present ROM, recovery, and data on the device.
Thank you!
P.S. Please do not tell me to search; I cannot find a firmware here for HTCCN701
Does anyone have a solution?
Check for a newer hboot here

Is there 1.29 boot RUU for your device?
Or try this method, get back to stock with stock recovery, relock your bootloader then check for updates and update your device, and checl your bootloader version.

Hello everyone,
I have found a new firmware.zip for my phone.
However, because it looks suspicious, would someone please tell me how to verify if the zip is indeed real? (Not edited)

try to install it, if it fails to pass htc sig and cid check, it wont do any harm
Yes, I think there is 1.29 RUU, but isn't the hboot contained in it not up to date?
And, I have already checked for updates when I was on stock ROM back in mid June.

Thanks, but are you sure it will just refuse to flash if it is a fake? Because I saw on the forums that if a wrong firmware is flashed, the device could be bricked.
Another question is that is it possible to upgrade hboot without modifying system and data?

You would need s-off for it to flash if it's fake and upgrading the hboot doesn't wipe system or data , although unlocking the boot loader does

Why not try it.
Can't check right now, not near my pc but does it happen to have the HTC_621 cod in the android_info.txt?
