Hello, I think this may have been discussed previously (but i cannot remember now):
I need S-ON!!!
And Official Three UK ROM!!!
I need to send this phone back to it's network operator for repair on the SD-CARD-FAILURE ISSUE and then re-root it again once recieved.
However - i cannot de-root? Anyone out there know how? Please reply if you have a technique!
Have you tried hard-resetting via bootloader? Did you use HTC Dev unlock?
I don't think you can S-ON though.

I have a defective HTC Desire and need to unroot to send in for repair. There is still no RUU for the BravoC (CDMA) with US Cellular. Is there a way to unroot it? It says that the S-ON tool in the unrevoked wiki does not work with the CDMA Desire, but is coming soon. Can anyone please help!
Were you able to find a solution?
No luck yet. I tried the unrevoked irc channel but no one was there. Is there anyone out there that might be able to help? I would love to get this thing fixed. I would gladly paypal someone a couple bucks for some beer if they can get me un-rooted!
Flash to alltell ruu and you are unrooted. Only problem is your boot screen will have alltell. No big deal though...most don't notice

The Altell RUU has a newer radio than the USCC radio. Is this an issue for when I send it back for repair?
You guys are refering to these CDMA RUU's right?

Do I need to be S-ON to not get charged for the full price of the phone and how can I get there? Thanks!

I just sent my phone in to US Cellular with it still being set to S-OFF. I did unroot by applying the RUU froyo download. When I called service they did not ever ask me about rooting / s-off but did ask me about other things that would void the warranty. It makes me feel like they will accept the return as is. I will keep you posted once they officially take my returned phone.
I need the US cellular RUU but i cant download it from the website, it takes me back to the support page when i click on download... any1 got the file? n can dropbox it or something??
TIA
A upated my HTC 7 Trophy to 7.1.7720 but i lost my jailbreak!
Now when i try load my backup i have still 7.1.7720 ,still locked!
Can anyone tell me what can i do?
Or can i flash another ROM?
Thanks a lot
If you can't restore to a version with a working unlock, flashing is your only option.
I have a similar problem - no unlock after the update (I was coming from NoDo via 7403, and it didn't even give me time to do anything inbetween). I haven't tried restoring yet.
Ok i accept this.Can you help me,which HSPL a ROM etc i need install?(i don't understand it all)
I'll send you all information,please help me
Sorry but I don't know... You don't have to go the HSPL route though, a stock ROM will do as well. The only problem is figuring out what went wrong any how to avoid the problem next time.
How can i found good stock Rom for my phone?
I have Htc trophy (Ge vodafone)
You have to go to your device forums here on xda, they'll help you out over there.
I have HTC Mozart with latest MANGO update from ZUNE!!
It is from Germany, T-MOBILE with all their apps and addons I don't need here in Bosnia!!! BTW, it SIM Unlocked!!!
How, if possible, to make it run with ORIGINAL HTC WP7.5 Mango!!!???
I searched for T-Mobile MANGO ROM but it nowhere to be found,
all I have available on NET is older ROMS from T-Mobile but I am afraid to BRICK my device if I try DOWNGRADING it from Mango to older BOOTS such as 1.28 or 1.30!
Any solution to this, I would appreciate your help!!!
The capital letters and explamation marks don't actually make it easier to help you, BTW.
If you're trying to de-brand the phone, why would you want a T-Mobile-branded ROM? You just want a stock HTC ROM. It has to be for the correct phone, but tht's about it.
If your bootloader (SPL) is already on version 5, you may have a problem replacing the ROM. If you're on 4.5 or lower, you should be able to flash any official ROM without damaging the device.
ok, thanks
Hey all,
First of all I want to say I am glad that I found this forum and community. I think you really can help me out with my (futher) questions.
Since my Telekom branded HTC Mozart won't get the tethering update I am on the search to debrand my HTC Mozart.
I already read that it is essential to have the right SPL Version, now when I enter the bootloader mode I get following data:
PD67100
SPL-4.5.XXXX.X
Now I have a few Questions:
1. Do I need to check other data before starting to debrand the Phone?2. Will I get further Updates via ZUNE after I debranded my Phone?3. What are the main reasons to
a. leave it branded?
b. debrand the Phone?4. Are there some issues with apps form the Marketplace after the debrand?
And last but not least:
5. Where can I find a working debranded ROM?
I would really be thankful for any kind of hints and help
Best regards
WPeter7
@WPeter7:
1) Well, you need to make sure that you're getting an unbranded (open market) ROM, and you need to make sure that your ROM matches your hardware. You also need to back up pictures/movies/music/whatever if you have any on the phone that aren't already on the PC.
2) Yes, official ROMs will continue to receive updates.
3) Leaving it branded lets you access carrier-specific features, like TMO's MyAccount app. It also is simply les hassle, and you don't have to lose all your data (which will hppen if you flash a ROM). Unbranding the phone means you remove all carrier customizations, and may receive updates earlier (because the carrier doesn't need to test and customize them).
4) No, not if it's an official ROM and the region is correct (i.e. if you can access apps now and you use the same primary WLID, you'll be able to access them again). However, you'll probably lose access to carrier-specific apps, as mentioned above.
5) Go look in the forum or wiki section specific to your phone. There should be a list of official ROMs. Alternatively, check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254384
Hi all,
I have tired to flash the new Rom yesterday and during checking the signature device reboot and installer said that it can not proceed.
After reboot phone goes directly into fastboot and gives ***Locked*** with Security Warning massage. I have tried different RUU but it is exactly the same.
Installation is failing on the checking signature.
I have tried Unrevoked3 but it is not able to find the device. Could you please let me know how to do it?

LE: hope it works now, if not search the forum, the link reffers to the search results.
You will certainly get the answer there.
Link does not work:
Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.
I have tried to find an answer but no luck so far, I am quite new to this. Is there anyone who can point me in the right direction?
Another solution is to try the RUU 2.10.401.8
I had some problems with the same Ruu, but not with the signature, and the previous version worked flawlesly.
What's your CID?
Sent from my HTC Desire S
I have tried few others RUU and every single of them is falling during the installation.
ok I manage to unlock the device finally
But again it is falling during the installation of a new ROM. Do I have to revert back Hboot to 0.98 before installation? if so how to do it?
So the RUU that I recommended completed successfully?
What do you want to do next?
Now you are S-ON, if you want to install custom roms you have to unlock your bootloader with the htcdev method(you will lose your warranty and need to flag manually the boot file) or to downgrade.

I want to downgrade the phone to orginal ROM T-mobile uk. So I could take off the simlock, I have put the unlocking code yesterday but nothing happens. I was advised to downgrade the rom and should be ok.
Could some help me out with my problem please when ever I am trying to upload new rom it is stuck on signature verification.
I will quote Enigmaamit as he said it better than me:

SIM unlock and bootloader unlock are two completely different things.

The only way to SIM-unlock your phone yourself is a XTC clip... better ask your phone operator.
I know the diffrance between those two, I have ordered unlocking code. After putting this into device when ever I put into new sim card it stoped nofifing me about it. But it is not able to find a new network. Below what I have receive form operator:
"It said "Successful" but nothing has happened

This has happened to a handful of customers who have all had one thing in common - the phones have been "rooted".
By rooting a handset the owner has removed some of the restrictions on the phone, which allows the owner to install whichever software of the phone that they wish. Unfortunately this has caused some issues when an unlock code has been entered.
It is easily rectified by reinstalling the original operating system that the phone was supplied with, then applying the unlock code and the phone should be unlocked, truly, successfully.
You can then reinstall the software you had on the phone before attempting the unlock and continue using the phone as you wish."
So that is the reason why I am trying to revert any changes.
i for one don't believe this
So their replay is bull**** in that case?
In my opinion yes(i can't say that i am a very experienced user) but i like to think i know some stuff about this.
I can't imagine what custom rom/Ruu version/app will "block" you to sim unlock your phone.
The only restrictions may be made by the phone manufacturer.
So i will try through HTC Clip in that case. But why I can upload any new RUU?
like i said earlier, i had some problems to with the 2.10.401.9 ruu.
Try the 2.10.401.8 it should work, if your phone is branded try a gold card.
Dear all,
I am in the middle of the bridge and don't know where to go...could you please give some help deciding what to do?
I have a Branded Desire S (Vodafone) with v2.3.5 lastest OTA update, and I would like to flash and try the ICS stock WWE from HTCDEV.
The simlock has already been removed, but the thing is can i flash this ICS update? do i need any goldcard or anything of the kind? Will the phone work ok? Or do i have to wait (maybe forever...) for the vodafone update? I reallly would like to unbrand the phone (the vodafone logo and other vodefone apps are really annoying...).
I think if this WWE update will go ok, when i received and warning about any vodafone update (because the serial indicates that this phone is a vodafone one) i have to ignore it and only apply only any WWE updates from HTCDEV, rather than that, i thing phone will work ok... but still i am worried about some things like :
- bricking phone with ICS update;
- some things don't work ok with this update because is a branded phone (i chat with HTC support and they told me that some guy complained about WIFI does not work after the ICS update, ... could it be possible, even if the hardware is the same from branded and unbranded phones?;
- possibility to go back to a 2.3.5 rom if i dont like for whatever reason of the ICS of its behavior on this phone; the HTC guy told me that only on the HTC assistance was possible to make it ... dont we just have to run the correct version of the ROM (by the way i don't know which is mine, could you please tell me? Because i seached on the HTCDEV for the right software number (2.10.168.3) and the file to download is a ".gz" file not a .exe one;
Other thing, does this ICS include a PTG (Portugal) language.
I will be forever grateful for all the help / hints you can give me.:good:
Thx in advance.

From what I've heard, the ics update has bugs, that can only be solved with root access. Flashing the ruu should work fine though, but you won't be able to downgrade without unlocking the bootloader to get root access.
For these reasons I would recommend making your phone s-off (see guides in the "general section), and installing a fixed version of the ics update, or whatever custom rom you want. Then you can still go back to the original state, if you want to.
I read somewhere on my downgrade guide that they have successfully debranded their phone using my guide.
