Not on the phone in your signature - this is the Desire S (Saga) forum, not the Desire (Bravo) one.
Hey SimonTS, thanks for your Reply. I know that this is the Saga Forum.
Sorry I didn't describe the Problem in the first Threat accurately . I own a Desire (Bravo) (as it is in the signature)
The Problem I have is related to the Desire S of my girlfriend. She has installed the RUU update and is not being happy with it. Since I have not dealed with the saga, I wanted to ask if it's possible to remove the update. As far as I know the bootloader will be changed while the update. Is it possible to unlock it?

I'd suggest you have a read through the Index Sticky first.
There should be no reason at all why you can't downgrade her phone, put a Custom ROM (either GB, ICS or JB) on it etc etc - but how you do it will all depend on the current state of the phone of course.

Two solutions:
1) Don't hold the phone in landscape as problem is much worse when held like this..
2) Achieve S-OFF and install a custom ROM which should have a software fix.
If you need to know what S-OFF then you probably are S-ON. To see how to get S-OFF then use search within forum and google.
Look at other posts before creating a new thread......http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1036357
i did a research on s-off but could'nt find any topic to show how to s-off the HTC Desire S.
Any resolution for that?

There are two routes....
1) XTC Clip
this route invalidates your warranty...

No idea, I'm afraid. I'd also recommend that you don't ask that question in the thread as it will simply annoy the developers who are working on the solution as fast as they can.
It has been shown to work on the Desire S already, but isn't yet released. It's released for other devices which shows that its not vapour ware and is worth waiting for.
and yes I'd suggest waiting a fortnight to a month at least....before contemplating XTC

there isn't one thread but dozens
Start with reading all the sticky threads in the android development section
Google clock work mod there are some good guides available
You shouldn't be in such a hurry, as you're weeks to wait until you're soff and therefore loads of time to research and read, this forum is a great place to start

You can install that rom, but you'll need to learn a little bit about android, bootloader and so. You'll have to boot to the recovery and flash your current system with that one. Make a nandroid backup first. On Nexus S forum you'll have guides about this

Hi guys,
I have unlocked my HTC DESIRE S with HTCDEV method and it's S-ON.
Now I want to install the latest MIUI V4 that has just been released and I think in order to do so I need to first downgrade the HBOOT...
I tried this guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399331
but when I start putting the commands im not sure it works, when i get to ./zergRush.c I get permission denied
Pleaes help me, I'm desperate
Don't bother. I love MIUI, but there seem to be nothing but problems with the new release at the moment.

U tried 2.8.3 on Desire S?
Still, can't you help me downgrade HBOOT and solve my problem in case they fix miui in the coming releases??
Please read before posting. Your question has been asked a thousand times (and in the proper forum - which is Q&A).
Hello everyone,
Okay, so i've installed the official ICS for my desire s and now i want to root it.. I mostly found threads which says rooting to gingerbread and ics and so on, and i am not sure whether it also appplies to me since i already have the official one?
And also, i do not know a single thing about rooting, but i've done a lot of research here and there to know a few basic things, but i am still unsure about it though..
Sooo, if I want to root my phone but still maintain the official ics, is that possible or does it defeat the whole purpose of rooting? and, what about those flashing the roms thing?
And, after rooting, will my current data in the phone still be there, e.g. my games progress and high score and so on, and all my contacts etc..
If anyone knows how to help me, I will be soooo thankful if u could just list out the steps which i can follow to root my phone?
Oh, and I've checked my HBOTT and Radio version if that helps.
HBOOT : 2.02.002
Radio : 3831.19.00.110
Thanks in advance!! Really desperate here.

Hi! I was on ICS RUU and used this guide to root FallOut V5. I had no experience of what so ever of rooting and I did it without any glitch.

Thanks. Will have a look at it. =)
Are there other good ICS roms which anyone can recommend? other than falloutv5?
Thanks.

well, this may seem kinda lame, but mostly i wanna root to play games. =) as I think the games downloaded from non-market sources can only be upgraded if the phone is rooted. and also for the cheats.

Wrong reason dude. XDA does not condone piracy of any sort and if the only reason for you to root your phone is to play pirated games then you would be better leaving now.

You really need to search and read so you can understand what you're doing and asking.
Also, the official ICS was rubbish - slow, flaky, not good. If you want ICS then flash one of the many good Custom ROMs instead.
I will back what Simon has said... if u still havent rooted yet... root ur phone... try to Get S-off , instructions can be found be in Development Section, Dont go for official OTA... i installed it and believe me it was a pain in a** . Once S-OFF u can flash many Roms out here and figure which onces best for u ...Happy Flashing
