Now you need the flash_image tool, if you can't find one, here's a link. Keep the download file to a specific directory (for this case, it will be /tmp/mtd0.img). If you want to try something more precise, you can try the one related to your carrier from this link. Then, you go here (if the link is down, you can download the source code here!) and define the CID and the ROM version.įor the CID, if you don't know it, just set to 11111111 or HTC_022. You need to downgrade your hboot version before running the RUU rom, for that, it's quite easy :įirst, you choose your ROM on that page, and notice the ROM version (I am very angry agains't them (lnx.lu) for wasting my time just because they are greedy). You have to download a "download manager", with so many related ads and apps you must install. I finally succeeded !! (YOUHOU!! You can't believe how proud I am !)įirst of all, I want to indicate that links on XDA (those that goes in, that redirect to lnx.lu), SUCKS! I can't believe it. Thank you very much for your help, I really appreciate! I spent 5hours trying to make this work without any luck. For that, I need a link to a tutorial or an app for downgrading to the correct HBoot, and I need to know to which version. In order to sum up, I'm looking for help to make my HTC Desire go back to the ROM I had when I purchased it.

So, I must have a newer HBOOT, but I can't find how to downgrade it, and most importantly, to which version ? 0.92 ? 0.90 ? 0.83 ? 0.80 ? I boot with VOL DOWN pressed, and it extract the archive but fails with a : So after, I tried to get directly the rom.zip by going into the %temp% folder (windows), I put it on the mounted disk of my android, and renamed it to PB99IMG.zip. I choosed RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U _4.05.00.11_release_121865.exe because I'm in France (and it seems it was the most recent version for european).īut when I execute the installer, it works a bit, but then, it fails with this error :ĮRROR 140: Bootloader version error (I got it in french : "Erreur de version bootloader") I know the first thing you gonna say is to google it, there is plenty of tutorials for it, but I tried at least 5 of them (including some in XDA), and every time I didn't succeed.įirst of all, here's my HTC Desire status : BRAVO PVT-1 SHIP S-ONĪt the beginning, I tried to reinstall the original rom from the links in the XDA :
