any senior member or an expert would like to help with me complete steps

thanks and sorry to flood with same question again
Go to HTC developer website. Search desire gingerbread official update, download it to pc, connect phone to pc via usb cable, start the downloaded file, wait 20-30 minutes. Done. Optional ( Now go to revolutionary website for rooting and s-off. )

Send it to me & I will root it, sell it on eBay and. Send you my old Nokia 3210. Seems that's about as sophisticated a phone as you can manage
By the way, how did you find your way onto this forum?

It will be moved to the Q&A section where it belongs.
Because you failed to read the rules (see links in my sig).
Because everything is already answered and this has absolutely nothing to do with development...
ok after the method that you link what should i do?

Gasan ask in the thread I posted, its specifically there for that purpose.
But be prepared for:
a) You need some rudimentary understanding of computers
b) You need to understand that anything like this has the risk of making your phone unusable (bricked)
c) Read the ENTIRE thread before you expect anyone to help when you ask any questions, I know this is a bit of a pain but we all had to do it once and it will get you more insight into the process and less rage from the people who spend all their time writing and coding this stuff.
Thus endeth the lesson
Good luck mate.

Its not that we don't want to help, firstly this is the development section, you do not post questions here, there is a separate forum for that.
Secondly you need to use the search function, there's a lot of guides and info here to help. You should at least go through them before posting blindly.
Lastly, welcome to the forum, enjoy and respect the rules .

actually i dont want to downgrade........is ther any way to root use one click application......like super one click or like that app........please help
You will have to downgrade in order to root. Once downgraded you can then upgrade again.
Now, PLEASE, pretty PLEASE, use the search box, read the dev forum.
Question asked and answered.
thank you guys for your help......now i have downgraded my dhd to 1.32 and rooted it.....but now the question is when i try to update it.....it shows my phone is updated......there is no update found.........so how can i update to 1.84 or higher........
You wait. It's not instant. READ THE FORUMS.
You will of course lose root if you update the ota. Curious to know why you bothered if this was your intention.
You will need radio s-off to avoid having to downgrade again after the update.

Hi all xda members, i just like to help you to solve your problems as fast as possible. Being answered correctly and being solved fastly and accurately.
I am putting this because i had found large number of posts in which people got in trouble, just because they havent asked their doubts correctly. Also not all phones have same specifications so that a common answer may not be applicable for every one to solve problems.
So its all about the way of asking a question in the forum. Please read and follow these whether you are posting a new thread or just in middle of a discussion.
Always read stickies before you post. They are put on top because they can solve most of your doubts, and they can help you to understand what you should/ shouldn't do.
Before asking a question please mention your wildfire specifications including.
Rom
Kernal
Radio
Hboot
S-on / s- off
Tweaks / coustomizations you installed.
Memory card partitions info.
Then you must explain what happened,when you try what.
Eg. My phone got boot loop error when i installed "xxxx script"
If you are trying to learn some thing never ask in parts, ask fully.
Eg. I want to flash a new custom rom, so from where i should start. And never ask like this ; "i cant instal xxxx rom in my phone. Pls help".
Just make intentions clearely.
Dont blame those who helped you for the reason that they asked you to do a thing and you have done some thing else, which may caused you some problems.
Always remember that a straight and clear question will always give you a staight and clear answer.
If you follow these ways of asking questions , i assure that you may not get into trouble.so folow these simple rules. Be happy.
Regards
Shah.

Where did you find Jikantru on the Wildfire Forums? ROMs are device specific so simply lifting a ROM for another device and expecting it to work or "make it work", in your words, is foolish.
Again.. thiz is not q/a thread. Pls dnt ask questions here. And those who wish to replay, pls dnt do it here..

Hi, firstly wrong thread, you should have openend up a new post in the Q&A section. Secondly you will need to go to your manufactures website here and find a way to make an acount, then you will need to go to support/service software and then download your stock rom, extract it and take the music app. then push the app to system/app on the phone, set the permissions to the same as everywhere else and then reboot. according to here post #7.
Also i would recommend asking for support on that thread, after reading it, as people here do not own your device

How to unlock MTS
I am having a MTS MTAG, its locked to support MTS sim cards only, when i bought the phone i took it to my brothers place ( In another city )
for unlocking that phone, he took me to the nearby shop for unlocking the phone, but now the phone (by mistake) got a hard reset and now its again asking for MTS only sim card, no one knows in my towwn how to unlock mobiles ( small town) and the person in my brothers town closed his shop and left, I would have simply used an MTS card but MTS stopped his service in my state, so please tell me how to unlock it ( i think i will be able to do it on my own if i know the procedure). AND if it helps its a CDMA device. When i turn on the phone its asks me to insert mts sim and without it can cant operate it. PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!!!

Bought HTC Desire Hd but cannot download any app. My phone was sold for the arabiic market and it does not support android market. I am in the UK and would like to be avble to download apps. Is there a way I could rest my phone or install Android Market?
Many thanks,
Should just be able to install the apk if you can find it. There are a few here in the apps forum, but probably best trying the desire hd apps forum if that's what you have. This is the original desire

You need to find ruu for your country or better option is to root your phone and flash some custom rom (here some info). Btw. it's Desire not DHD section.
Hi,
thanks fo r the advice. Sorry posted in the wrong forum. I will repeat same in the DH forum. What RUU in my countrymeans ?
just download the market.apk and install it?
