You can only skip the .zip ending if you have "Hide File extensions for known file types" on in Windows. Make sure after renaming there is only one .zip extension (ie. Not update.zip.zip, or update)

New Radio !
this is the ruu signed exe file. can someone take only the radio?
Flash through recovery: http://www.speedyshare.com/files/24040519/32.46.00.32U_5.10.05.17_2-nonsigned.zip
It is NOT signed.
Sorry for the big size, and don't worry about it. It's not compressed.
Thanks! 10char
lollylost100 whats that? Is that radio signed when theres -nonesigned in name.Also this radio is 26MB while all other previous where round 11-12MB.
A bit confused.
Is this surely for our Desire ?
I ask because its more than 2*bigger than all older radios...
Oh I can't wait for this to be in cooked ROMs
I assume it gets rid of root?
So can anyone who flashes this say of any improvements?
It's for HTC Desire. The big size is because it isn't compressed.
PS. It is NOT signed.
the nre rom works under opendesire 4.0 ....
flashing via ro manager

What does this do that the previous one didn't?
And unrelated: Is there a (practical) difference between flashing a signed and an unsigned package?

try using a goldcard
Why would you want to flash a carrier-specific RUU unless you're on that carrier? Makes no sense. This is really for devs to pick apart and make new ROMs out of
most people have to learn the hard way.

**note only to be english and maybe german? not sure if anyone can confirm that portion for me would be great. I will take another stab at this with updated apps ect when i get time.
You have to flash at your own risk it worked perfecty fine for me but i cant say the same for everyone.

Try downloading ROM Manager from the market and flashing CWM Recovery from within the app.
Once you've flashed recovery you can put a ROM on your SD, boot to Recovery, and flash
iam gona try and tell u...
thnx in advance
You just need to reinstall recovery again,but since your unrooted with soff its a little different.
Huge thanks goes to gene for this file.
1)download file and rename to PD98IMG.zip--- must be exact caps matter,make sure you don't add an extra. Zip happens alot.
2)place in root of SD card-not in a folder
3)flash through hboot
4)done you have cwr and can flash a custom rom

The name of the zip must be exactly "PD98IMG.zip" sans the quotes of course and to flash through HBoot, power the phone off>press and hold the Volume Down key/button and Power at the same time>release the keys/buttons when you get a white screen w/an android and text>it will search for the PD98IMG and upon finding it will ask if you want to update>confirm by pressing Volume Up>reboot when prompted by pressing the Power button.

thnx
iam trying it now and will tell u about it
there a way to chk if the rom i downloaded is not corrupt or etc
and before flashing or after do hav to do anything els llike audio fix etc

i tried it but it doesnt work..
the h-boot doesnt search for any file
there the recovery option when i open it it goes to {android system recovery 3e}
i did everything but its not working ;(
Where did you rename the file? If you did it on a windows machine the default is to hide the extentions and you probably have the extra. Zip I mentioned. Verify the file name with a file manager on your phone. Just trying to rule out the most common mistakes

you're right, i guess my question should have been worded differently asking if the OP was SURE he didnt have root. it pretty obvious that he's new to android customization, which is why i asked exactly what ROM Manager said when he ran it.

YOu have to be rooted for rom manager to work. Your best bet would be to use the hack kit. Please do your research before modding your phone. What you are doing could leave you with a device that doesnt work and cant be returned.

THIS IS ONLY FOR THE HTC ONE S SPECIAL EDITION. IF YOU DON'T HAVE 64GB INTERNAL STORAGE THEN DON'T FLASH THIS.

Hi mate,
can you tell which software version exactly and is this a WWE variant?
I ask because i got a Villeplus as a present from some HTC manager and it had a Firmware on it which was WWE and newer than the Asia RUU that has been floating around for a while, BUT, i forgot to pull a full backup before getting rid of stuff in it. So, now i have a (nearly) full raw partition dump but i am lacking data partition (10GB was too large, aborted pull cuz i thought it was stuck) and i also got rid of some system apps i didn't want, so basically screwed up.
Now i wonder if this is maybe the variant i am after? The 1.14.999.50. 710RD (with all WWE languages) and not 1.14.709.16 which is only Thai/Chinese/English?
Plus, is it already adjusted to run on the Ville or is it screwing the partitioning? Cuz i need one that's ok to run on the Villeplus...

This is based on the one already floating around. So not the wwe version. Come to think of it that's what was on my device before I screwed up my device. If you have a full system dump I can make these for it too. Unless its broken. This is working fine on my villeplus without issue. I tested them both on it

Asked my manager "Friend" from HTC for it. No reply, no way we're gonna get that RUU unless you got a leak source still.
That RUU would be extremely handy as i want to get Viper running on it and Torxx could need the RUU to check out a few things.
And i am currently trying to find my way through HTC's partition wizzardry blindfolded (total beginner with this). All partitions are at the exact same addresses, the Ville RUU's run on it too but the Mounts are screwed in the flashed Ville RUU afterwards so i have no idea where else to look.
Next thing i'm gonna do is pull a RAW Dump of my Ville and write it over to the Plus without mmcblk0p3 to not risk any serious sh!t (hboot from Ville already been on it and working) and then see if the Partitions are still messed up (maybe clear storage with Ville Stock Recovery helps fixing that then??).

Also since you didn't have the idea to provide us with a copy of your decrypt I asked zarboz and he did it for us. If anyone needs the ROM.zip in decrypted state, it can be found in the wwe RUU thread. Just because there's quite a few people not using Linux and hence not able to use ruuveal themselves...

It should flash actually. It can also be that dude uses later TWRP variants which are broken and don't flash stuff. He didn't specify.
There's one guy further up who did flash it to the Ville. It's just screwing up the mounts actually.

Unlikely. There's hardly any devices outside Taiwan. Just a very few. No dev will find that attractive unless one of them has an SE himself.
