I rooted and S-offed my G/F's Desire to unbranded the UK vodafone version so that she was on stock, and thus would get updates like normal, i did this by flashing a RUU 1.47 - thus removing root but leaving S-off.
Her dippy brother thought he knew what he was doing and flashed the new 2.10 RUU so that she'd have sense 3.0.
It Apparently all went well, but then just hangs on the white HTC screen.
Can anyone Offer any help on how to fix this?
Edit: Fixed it, just flashed the 1.47 RUU again - sorted
hey try this
Mate there is a software for flashing HTC phone via PC. I think you don't have cwm NCIS u flashed Ruu. So from the link get that software and install HTC drivers in PC. install that software and flash as cwm.forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=794638
I currently have a HTC Desire that was on the O2 UK Network. However I am having no luck in rooting the Device. Yesterday I contacted GSM Liberty and unlocked the Handset and this appears to have worked fine. However I believe the version of the boot loader maybe why I am unable to Root my device. The Hboot is 0.93.0001
Could this be the problem? I have tried using unrevoked and it will not detect the phone.
If anyone could offer me some advice it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Hello,
My wife's Chacha has been ota updated to 1.54.401.3. Result was broken wi/fi connectivity. Phone is however s-on and locked. So, I decided to s/off it and root etc. But, htcdev utility for unlocking bootloader does not work, since the latest supported version is 1.54.401.2.
I've tried to install RUU European 1.33, but without success (also tried with the gold card) .
My idea is to downgrade it somehow in order to s/off, root and install custom rom, since she had a lot problems with stock ones, but i am stuck. Any help would be much appreciated.
my wife phone does have problem with connection phone calls
Didn't root or any stuff (she does not need it)
Now all hell breaks....
but wifi works

I am in your exact same situation. My wife's phone seems to be an HTC Europe phone and I too can't unlock it because it has been upgraded automatically to 1.54.401.3. Did you manage any progress?
+1 Here. Chacha is rooted but s-on. Does not want to unlock again via HTC website, and unable to unroot.
I know it's an old phone but I wanna root it. it's got gingerbread 2.3.5, hboot 2.18. I've tried the htc dev method, I'm having trouble b/c my device manager isn't saying htc bootloader under android devices, it just says "my htc", unfortunately b/c of the firmware I can't use unrevoked, so I've been trying this method. I've tried downloading the htc drivers, yet I still can't get the token info from the cmd prompt. Is there an easier way to do this, or at least a fix for my problem?
Hello
I just recently purchased a HTC Desire 601 Zara. It's network locked with Alltel. This past weekend I did unlock the bootloader via the HTC Dev website. I tried to root the device with Kingo. When Kingo would go through it's procedures and at the end would say root was successful. But the phone isn't rooted. I can open up Kingo again and it would say "Rooted: no" . and Rom manager says it's not rooted. Also I noticed after trying to root the phone, bootloader has "tampered". This tampered message didn't appear until after trying to root the device. It wasn't there after I unlocked the bootloader. Based on what I'm reading, I can't get the tampered messaged off until I get the S-ON to S-Off. Wondering how I can do that easily and also I'm having a hard time finding stock ROM so I can use CWM. Where can I find stock ROM for this phone? Thanks in advance for any help.
Anyone??
