How to Root CDMA Desire! HOOT 0.98
Original post can be found HERE/
As many of us have researched, the Hoot on the desire is 0.98 and is hard to find any other instructions to root. Im a DROID user on the Cell South network and Last night got my hands on a Desire. The root was tricky but my friends desire is running Cyanogenmod no problem
Note: I take no resposability if you brick your phone an/or any other devices. This is just how i did it.
Instructions:
1: Download unReVoked Rooting tool. Click Here
(This tool works best if you are on linux ubuntu, windows users must install HTC Sync for the ADB Drivers)
2:Linux:
>Extract reflash, Open Terminal, Place your desire in Charge Only Mode with Debugging enabled.
> Plug in the phone and give it a few seconds to be reconized fully.
> In terminal type: cd /path/to/unrevoked then chmod +x reflash then sudo ./reflash and finally
> If it asks you for a password, use your root/user password. Unrevoked should start working and detect the phone.
Windows:
>Again Phone must be in Charge Only Mode with Debugging Enabled.
>Download the unrevoked package, Run the EXE. If you have HTC Sync installed it should detect the phone.
>Works same as Linux, Patience is a virtue.
(DO NOT CLOSE THE PROGRAM UNTIL IT SAYS ITS DONE!!. YOU WILL BRICK YOUR ****)
3. Unrevoked will begin working its magic, Your phone will reboot about 2-3 times. Be Patient!
> When its all over you will be brought to the recovery menu. (Green writing)
> Ours spit out some error code, but i restarted the phone and re entered recovery mode by holding down (Vol Down + Power)\
>You will be brought to a white screen HTC Labeled, Wait for hoot then do volume down to recovery, Push power.
4. After you have re-entered, Go down to manage and backup to Backup your stock ROM.
>Push back after the process has completed.
> Wipe the Device, then press back
> Go to mount and unmount storage.
> Mount your storage card to the computer.
5: After you have your phone plugged in make a folder on the memory card called Roms and Kernels (Whatever you prefer really).
> Go download the latest nightly/stable rom from the BravoC thread.
Click here for BravoC Roms
6:After download, Place the zip into the memory card in the Roms and Kernels folder i asked to make.
> On the android, when the file is done copying, unmount the memory card from the pc.
> Then in recovery menu, install zip file.
> Choose from SD Card
> Go to Roms and Kernels Folder.
> Select the file you downloaded.
> Click yes and enjoy!
7. You can download the Google Addon for your desire Here
YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY ROOTED and flashed YOUR DESIRE, This works on Cellular South, US Cellular, and other BravoC Desires with the 0.98 Hoot.
Don't forget to say thanks!
I have been looking to do this for a long time. And it worked great, the only problem is I don't understand the rom.
in the second step when it says:
> If it asks you for a password, use your root password. Unrevoked should start working and detect the phone.
you should use your user password, not the root password.
(of course your user must be a member of the sudoers group)
No need for passwords. But wish I had my HTC Clock and Calendar back.
You lose some you gain some buddy. there is a clock, look up fancy widget 1. 3 apk in your google box. and you can get it free.. Not gnna post a link cause of the rules. but its the ported HTC clock.
Thanks, but didn't care for that clock, saw one for $2 but couldn't get it to display so I uninstalled it. I know about "Win some, loose some" After all I have had a WinMobile phone for a couple years. And started flashing ROM's since the Touch Pro. My problem is, by the time I find a perfect ROM, I upgrade to a different phone. Did that with the TP1, and again with the TP2. Now the search begins again with the Desire. Actually the only problem I had with the stock 2.1 rom was that I kept running out of room. But thanks for the help and I am off again to find the perfect CDMA ROM!!!
awesome! just got my desire last night. to be sure after i root i will lose clock and calender? also (sorry, maybe a noob question) i like the sence, wasnt a big fanof AOSP and i notice all the Rom's here seem to be for GSM not CDMA. if i was to root and run the stock 2.1 and get rid of all the junk apps in it would that be possible? and lastly, does anybody know if there is a RUU for Csouth's desire incase i need to go back to original like we could with the hero?

1. You shouldn't lose clock and calender.
2. After you root, install Titanium Backup. It will allow you to uninstall those apps you don't want.
3. No RUU's available for CDMA at this time. Make sure you do a nandroid backup immediately after rooting
uhh buddy there is a RUU out for it. Thats what the recovery menu basically is, the installer for the zip file. Cyanogen Mod is the ROM. To keep your Cellular South ROM you just backup like the instructions say, if you ever want to go back you Wipe the device and restore the image from your SD Card. Theres a link to Cyan in the main post. RC1 Came out yesterday!

when i said RUU i meant a stock RUU put out by Csouth just like they gave us for the hero. it would put your phone back exactly like it was when you took it out of the box so if you needed to take it back to the store for whatever reason you could simply use it to go back to original.
ok guys one more question, i got root just fine. gonna keep running my stock rom but when i installed titanium backup (never used it before) it said busybox not installed and i dont have root access. i do have root cuz shoot me is working. i searched busybox in market and it says wont work for the desire yet.. any ideas? i ran into this problem with SU on my hero and had to change to the chainsDD version of SU. could this be the same thing?
ALSO: trying to use ADB and it says permission denied.
EDIT . Spoke to soon and did unrevoked forever and seems to all be working now.
Hi,
I am new to this sort of thing. I just got my phone and I am following this guide and I am thinking about trying it on my phone. Here's what I've got:
HTC Desire
Running Android 2.1
Alltel is my service provider
This is the information I get when I boot up my phone while holding the "back" button:
Bravoc DVT2 Ship S-ON
HBOOT-0.98.0000
MicroP-051e
Touch Panel-SYNT0101
Radio-2.05.10.08.11
Jul. 5, 2010, 19:14:11
Will this guide work with my phone?
The sole reason I'm wanting to do this is because I want to use a Wii remote with emulators on my phone. I am aware that there is an Android app that will do so, but that app doesn't work with phones that use HTC's "sense". I'm also aware that there are certain third-party wireless bluetooth controllers, but don't want to use them. So, I've been told that my only option is to root the phone so that I can have a custom ROM on it. If there is another way to do this without rooting, I'd love to know what that is.
Any information pertaining to any of this would be very helpful. Thanks in advance.

Rooting is the only way to flash a custom Rom and yes unrevoked will work with your hboot. Not sure about any of the wii stuff your talking about tho.

Thanks. And one other question I forgot to ask: Suppose I do this and an update to android 2.2 comes out for my phone. What should I do then?
If they give you a ruu just do it like normal, but as soon as they do cone out with a ruu for it whether its uscc or cellular south, there will be a custom Rom made from it.

Check the MD5 checksum for the Reflash_Package.exe
Most likely a corrupted installation.
I have the same phone/hboot/ etc...
I was able to root with unrevoked, no problem. I did get an error in the recovery at the end but per this guide, that seems to be normal.
I was able to run a backup in nandroid, which also worked, but I noticed S-on didn't change to S-off. Is this normal for this phone? Should I try rerunning unrevoked?

I had this same issue. I did some research and there is a thread on unrevoked wiki that has an updated unrevoked-forever.zip to flash that gives us successful S-off. There seems to be a problem with S-off ing this route though. After it was complete, the APN info was gone and MMS settings were blank. I used APN backup/restore to put APN info back in, but still would not send/receive. I had to restore MMS via Goldcard, which changed back to S-on. Any ideas?
Since this seems to be the only generic CDMA Desire thread, I have some questions for other CDMA Desire owners. First, the only rom I can find with everything working is CM, but not sure I like the way it looks. I'm looking for a Sense rom. Anyone running a stable one? Second, I have found a rom called Ultimate Droid 2.3 and 2.4 for CDMA desire that looks worth trying. Anybody running it or tried it yet? 3rd, is there any other good forums specifically for CDMA desire? I am sick of having to weed through the billions of GSM threads to find a CDMA one...
link to Ultimate Droid roms: http://theultimatedroid.com/forum/index.php?/forum/33-htc-desire-releases-cdma/
So i bought an inspire from my friend and all was good until yesterday when the volume down button stopped working on me. then after a series of crazy boots it started working again which is leading me to believe the software is effed up. Its running MDJ's Ultimate droid HD v 1.8 and is completely freaking out on me. Being new to android, i just want to flash it back to stock. Can anyone help me out? also, the volume button is again acting stupid so hopefully it starts working again.

Turn off USB debugging (Settings-Applications-Development-Remove check from USB Debugging), connect phone to computer, make sure you're in Charge only mode. The file you download is in .exe, so just run the program and follow the prompts. As stated earlier, this won't turn S-Off to S-On, but you'll still have a pure stock, unrooted ROM and Radio. There's a thread somewhere that discusses getting S-On (which you'll need to do before you run RUU if you're worried about it). Give me a minute and I'll try to dig it up.
Edit:
Follow the instructions here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033353) under MISCELLANEOUS to get S-On before running the RUU. Needed files are provided.
Note: that thread says to run the RUU, then perform the modified hack kit instructions to get s-on, then run the ruu again. You should just be able start from running the hack to to step 3, running ./gfree -s on, then running the RUU - you shouldn't have to run it first.
Another note... make sure you download the hack kit from this thread. It's version 9. The newer versions worked a little differently and I don't think they use gfree to get s-off, so newer versions won't work like this.
What's Ruin? Why would I need to run it and what's s-off? Sorry I'm trying to learn as I go.

S-Off is Radio Security off. This is what allows you to flash custom ROMs/Radios/Kernels. Part of the root process is gaining S-Off. If you want a straight from factory set-up, you would need to return to S-On. This would only be necessary if you're returning the phone to ATT or HTC for some reason, even then it's not likely they would check this setting. You can still be S-On and run the stock, unrooted ROM
The RUU is a combination of the stock ROM, kernel, and radio. When you run it, it wipes anything currently on the phone and installs the image that's installed at the factory. When it's done, you will have a stock, unrooted ROM and kernel with the factory radio
If you feel it's a software issue, why not try flashing a different ROM instead of going back to stock? There are plenty of ROMs out there that work flawlessly if not next to it.
I would like to thank you homeslice976, as I stumbled into this thread looking around, but I had this same exact question!
I have a really strange issue and I've done everything I can think of to fix it to no avail. I'm hoping someone here can give me a few pointers.
I'm working on a Inspire 4G for someone. The issue is that the phone reverts to a specific state no matter what I do. For example, if I wipe the phone, the phone boots back up to Froyo with all of his stuff on it. If I try loading an RUU or IMG file (Froyo or Gingerbread), it will "take" but boot to Froyo with all of his stuff on it. It's almost like it wipes itself and loads this image out of nowhere...
Another weird thing, which may or may not be related, is that I see a weird download in his notification tray. Apparently, the file named "WinBej2Setup.exe" was downloaded twice. I did some research on that and everything I see points to some kind of malware for a Windows PC.
Any and all help is appreciated.
Forgive me if this sounds stupid, but you do have S-off correct? I'm not sure about the weird file, have you tried to access it? Also what other roms have you tried to flash? Also what method did you use to root?

I don't have S-OFF. Here's all the bootloader info:
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.85.0019
MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.06.04.06_m
Emmc-boot

As for the file, I'm not sure where it's located. I can only see the notifications that they have finished downloading.
As for the history on the phone, I really can't say much since it's not my personal phone. The person I'm doing this for said he tried to root it using the ACE Hack kit and "some ADB commands" and failed. That's all the information I was given.
At this point, I can load anything to the phone but it will just revert to Froyo in the exact state that it's currently in.
For example, I just tried installing Gingerbread via the official RUU file. It goes through the entire process without a hiccup. Then it reboots and takes forever to load; but when it does, it's back on Froyo with all the owners files...
Personally I would root it, make sure s off, and make sure to format the memory card the corrrect way also.
Then I would install a custom rom.
And the file you speak of is also a game called bejewled. My girl loves that game.
Sent to you by ......
This p-o-s I'm addicted to, and my woman is jealous of.
Reformat the sd card then do an official upgrade thru HTC. Go to the website and download the Gingerbread RUU and HTC Sync. If this doesn't work, complete the root process as suggested.Tell your friend you can't install exe files on Android. They need to be apk files or zip files if installed thru recovery.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using Tapatalk
I appreciate the advice guys, but I think you guys are overlooking what I'm trying to say... I've already tried running the official upgrades from HTC. The RUU says it's completed fine, but on reboot, I'm back on Froyo with all the same stuff on it.
I've even gone as far as extracting the IMG file out of the RUU and loading it through the bootloader. If I do this, it does the same thing-- says everything loaded fine but reverts on boot back to Froyo in the same state it was in prior.
I can temp root the phone using psneuter but that's about it. I have no idea how I'm going to achieve S-OFF if everything I do is wiped on reboot...
What I'm wondering is if there is a way to lock the entire phone down in a state where nothing can be changed; and if so, is there a way to disable this feature.
Are you sure you do not have a file on the root of the card named PD98IMG.zip? You may be installing this every time the phone boots.
How can you install a non RUU ROM when you have s-on?
Something does not make sense here. Also the exe file you talked about has no use on android as android can do nothing with it. Where do you actually see it?
Go back to square 1. What ROM is on the phone now? Do you have clockwork installed?
I'm not sure how to many different times/ways I can explain the same thing. The phone is on stock AT&T Froyo 2.2.1 (1.80.502.3). Currently, there is no custom recovery and it's not rooted.
The issue is that the phone always reverts (almost like it's doing a nandroid restore in the background) during boot to Froyo 2.2.1 (1.80.502.3) with all his stuff on it.
I've installed Gingerbread 2.3.3 (2.47.502.7) via the official AT&T RUU file
I've extracted the PD98IMG.zip from the Gingerbread 2.3.3 (2.47.502.7) RUU and loaded it via bootloader
I've installed Froyo 2.2.1 (1.80.502.3) via the official AT&T RUU file.
I've extracted the PD98IMG.zip from the Froyo 2.2.1 (1.80.502.3) RUU and loaded it via bootloader
I've done a factory reset from within the phone
I've deleted user data & cache with the stock recovery
After performing each and everyone of these steps, the phone hangs on the white HTC screen while booting and eventually boots up to Froyo 2.2.1 (1.80.502.3) along with all the guys stuff on it.

I agree completely; however, the issue I'm running into very unusual. With that being said, I'm trying to point out anything unusual that I notice with the phone. This file most likely has absolutely nothing to do with the problem I'm encountering, but I mentioned it just in case.

I wish this was the case; however, this wouldn't explain why all his stuff is still on the phone... The only time there is a PD98IMG.zip on the sdcard is when I put it there. Even so, I would have to boot the phone into bootloader mode and go through the prompts to get it take. More so, even if I did do this, it would just revert upon rebooting (hints the problem).
I appreciate the help but I think the problem is a little deeper than what has be presented.
That clears it up for me. You obviously know what you are doing. You mentioned "wipe" a few times which confused me. Didn't think there was a way to actually wipe it without a recovery installed. Sounds like one helluva confusing issue there. Goodluck.
Its always going to revert back to the previous state because its still s-on.
You need to get s-off before anything will change.

This I know is not true-- You can load signed code with S-ON. If what you said was true there would be no way to load an official RUU or OTA...
I appreciate the help, but telling me to get S-OFF (which I've clearly stated that I'm unable to do) is not getting me anywhere.
Is the original ROM branded? Have you tried installing a PD98IMG.zip from a gold card? Just a thought.
Hello I've been experimenting with some custom roms on a HTC Thunderbolt. The friend that owns it said he had a backup stock original rom that came with the phone, but all of sudden does not have it anymore. I am wondering if there is a way I can get the original stock Froyo 2.2 ROM that came with the Thunderbolt. Or even better the stock OTA Gingerbread 2.3 update that came in last week. I've found some stock roms online, but they all turned out to be invalid. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Here is one stock rom that I found:
PG05IMG_Mecha_VERIZON_WWE_1.70.605.0_Radio_1.39.00.0627r_NV_8k_1.41_9K_1.64_release_200422_signed.zip
but all the downloads of this file turn out be to invalid.
do you want to unroot? or do you want a rooted stock rom?
if you want to stay rooted,flash one of these in recovery:
froyo 1.70.605.0
gingerbread 2.11.605.3
RUUs if you want to unroot:
froyo 1.70.605.0 (note this is a .exe file)
gingerbread 2.11.605.3 this is a pg05img(install in hboot)
i checked the last 2 downloads and they are working fine.
need help
Hey guys, I was trying to unroot my thunderbolt but jacked things up. I had it wipe all date, now will not boot Its still rooted. When i go into the reboot mood its by Revolutionary. Info it displays where it gives me options of fastboot, recover, factory reset, simlock, hboot usb and image crc is

Idk if that helps. It doesnt reboot or does a looping process. Just stays at the white htc screen and doesnt say anything, and is not the screen where it says htc quietly brilliant. When i go into recovery 4ext recovery touch is whats available, current rom:unknown. Im fairly new so i would greatly appreciate any help, I like this phone alot and would hate to use something else. I dont care if after everything is said and done its still rooted or not. I have my personal info still on my card and a backup on my computer so im safe on that and dont care if i lose everything on the phone.
Hey,
I wish I would have know you wanted an unrooted thunderbolt, I would have traded you. Currently looking for a way to root ICS with out a million step process.
I had a ATT inspire 4G running on android 2.2
I rooted and installed CWS with easy ace root. worked perfectly
then following another guide I found, I tried to flash update-aospX-1.0.0-AR26-DesireHD-signed using recovery.
But my phone was stuck on the white HTC screen and didn't go anywhere. Trying to solve this issue I wiped everything with recovery and flashed this: GizRoot_v_2 (1) which I found on this forum as a rom made similar to the stock rom. this worked and now phone was good but the guide did say to change the radio.
I tried to update my radio via hboot with sd card, but it always got stuck on the installing part and never finished. After researching it the problem was that I am still S-ON and you cant change radios while S-on?
I have spent 4+ hours googling and researching I have about 12 tabs open with different guides. I am very frustrated at this point
I Have a inspire 4g phone that works but the radio doesn't work. 1st it would connect to the movil network of the carrier but the wifi did work. I changed the simcard to another provider and it did work calls were made and internet data worked. but now wifi doesn't work!
I would like to have the phone back to factory setting and stock att rom. how can I do this, I used a RUU exe, but it always said error connecting to the phone. the RUU is RUU_Ace_Cingular_US_1.80.502.3_Radio_12.39.60.19_26.06.04.06_M_release_166557_signed
or maybe I am doing it wrong?
help please
edit: I booted phone to fastrecovery usb and ran the RUU.exe again, this time it went all the way to wiping and sending then it said an unknown error occurred right after updating signature and sent me to error recovery step 0, followed prompts but nothing worked
Flash boot.img from fastboot. Read the Ace Think Tank in Desire HD General for details.
steps
Ok
So.
I booted into recovery, wiped data and factory reset, wiped cache partition, wiped dalvik cache
installed from sd card update-aospX-1.0.0-AR30-DesireHD-signed. rebooted device into fastboot, connected usb cable.
downloaded android-win-tools and extracted into one folder. I also extracted the boot.img from update-aospX-1.0.0-AR30-DesireHD-signed into the same folder.
I opened a cmd window, went to said directory. typed fastboot.exe then fastboot devices. my device is there, then I did fastboot flash boot boot.img sending boot, writing boot ok.. did fastboot reboot...
and HOLY **** IT WORKS...
I still have to test wifi gps calls etc
EDIT: WIFI WORKS, GPS WORKS BLUETOOTH TOOK A WHILE TO TURN ON BUT WORKS, and calls work! camera works yey!

I bought my phone from USA in 2011, Android 2,2, i think, and with MIUI on it, locked on AT&T and I use it in Europe.
I unlocked it here in Europe and everything was fine.
So, the phone started work slow and after 2 years of use it I didn't receive any system update. My husband bought one same model, no MIUI on it, but HTC Sense I think, AT&T locked, unlocked here, but he received the system update and worked fine.
Now, in my silly thinking, I started to look for update on Internet and I saw that the Android is already 4.2. and I have 2.2. And I said,man, that's why is not working so well.
So, I upgraded my phone to Android 4.2.2 JDQ39E - the most stupid thing I could do. Starting that day, my phone is freezing non-stop, it restarted itself while I am talking on the phone. The apps are not working well, are freezing often. I read on AT&T website that for my model, the last Android is not 4.2.2 at all, but it was too late.
I found out how to upgrade the MIUI and I did it. This is ok, but this MIUI it makes me cray. I don't like it at all.
I WANT TO GET RID OF MIUI AND PUT SOMETHING ELSE INSTEAD OF IT. And put the normal Android system that my phone support it well.
HOW I CAN DO THAT?
Please help me with some advices before I will creat a new model: HTC Inspire 4G smashed.
Thank you so much.

Uh mate, It's best to go back to Stock Roms for that. And Everytime you guys go upgrading and degrading Roms, It's best to make a backup image with Nandroid.
Easiest way to go back to stock is find the proper RUU's for your phone.

Pick one of these, Download the RUU, Plug in your phone and Let the App do it's magic.
And take note, It's going back to the STOCK.
After that, Use the AAHK tool or search around the forums to unlock and S-Off.
Good luck.
Thank you!

Thank you so much. Before I will do what you said, I will read all the threads about AAHK and how to unlock. I need to be informed before to do it. It is a little hard for me to do all these steps, but I will try. If I will succeed, than I will reconvert my job :laugh:
Yeyyyy
