[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
dunno whether you've given up hope by now on anyone responding but hey.

First of all this should be moved to the wildfire section.. just because you have a legend doesn't mean you post in the legend forum with wildfire problems.

In order to flash custom ROM's, the only way to do so is to S-OFF the wildfire, you can do this with AlpharevX.

In the process of S-OFF'ing your Device, when it has completed, it asks you if you want to flash recovery, choose yes.

if you didn't then follow this:

download the ROM you want and put it in your sd-card

Download recovery and rename it to recovery.img for simplicity. Place this in c:\

go into the AlpharevX.zip and extract "fastboot.exe" into c:\

Run cmd and type:

cd c:\
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img c:\recovery.img

Once you've flashed recovery, boot into it by turning the phone off, holding volume down and the power button. Then, use the volume down key to navigate to RECOVERY, and press the power button again.

go to "backup & restore", and backup your current ROM.

go to "advanced", and select "wipe dalvic cache"

go to "mounts & storage" and wipe "boot" "system" "data" "cache"

go to "install from sd-card", "choose zip from sd-card", find the ROM you downloaded, and select it, then choose yes when itt prompts you if you wish to install it.

When you click on "Downgrade", UMT call adb "getprop ro.product.version" to obtain your version.

Can you put command in cmd.exe: adb shell getprop ro.product.version

And post your result please

Ok...so i just tried flashing the radio to my Desire HD from 26.03.02.26_m to 26.11.01.21m using UMT. I ticked include RIL and the phone rebooted into clockwork recovery mod, the progress bar appeared...done its thing then the phone rebooted. I then followed the instruction to install from SD car (i'm guessing you meant in the recovery (CWM)) and i just checked in software info and it's still on 26.03.02.26_m

any ideas?
[Desire HD Android Development] Volupia:

Hi, i cannot get downgrade to work.

UMT pushes PD98IMG to my device, it then loads bootloader, i press the power button to get to hboot, i then click ok and this as far as i can get! on my computer screen the Found New Hardware Wizard pops up and i nothing else happens after this, it does not load froyo 1.32 to my device. Why does the Found New Hardware Wizard keep popping up? anybody else having this issue?

My computer is running Windows xp sp3 (32bit)

My DHD is currently running 2.36.405.8

Htc Sync is installed

Usb debugging is enabled

Fastboot is disabled

Unknown sourses is enabled

and device is connected as charge only.....

Hope someone can help.
[Desire HD Android Development] Volupia:
When your devices enter in bootloader, Windows detect new hardware if you don't have installed HBOOT Drivers. To fix: You can install HBOOT Drivers.

When you are in bootloader and don't loading PD98IMG.zip, check if your device isn't "HBOOT USB PLUG", if you are this message, check the FAQ here. You can translate this FAQ on the Top-right of the browser.
[Desire HD Android Development] steve75dhd:
Thank you for the quick reply.

I try to install the hboot drivers, but it fails each time i try.

When going in to bootloader it first says FASTBOOT USB i press the power button and it says HBOOT then some green writing quickly flashes up then it says HBOOT USB PLUG

So what else do i need to do? UMT fails to install hboot driver....
[Desire HD Android Development] Volupia:
Try with other USB PORT. Some people resolve it with an installation of RUU 2.50. Others resolve it with other computer...

To install HBOOT drviers, in UMT, go to File and click on "Install HBOOT Drivers". If fails, isn't normal. You can try install drivers manually.

Drivers Path: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Ultimate Multi Tool\bin\drivers" or "C:\Program Files\Ultimate Multi Tool\bin\drivers". Depend your OS if x86 or x64.

As i said before, i am running XP (x86) any other ideas how to get this working??

Downgrade frozen?

Great tool! :D

I have an issue with the downgrade process.

I have a branded phone form T-mobile (version 2.37.112.5). I have successfully created a Goldcard but when I try to downgrade nothing happens. THe phone does not reboot and UMT (2.5.6) just says "downloading PD98IMG.zip". Firewall is off and no download is on-going. I have also tried to manually download and put the file in /temp with the same result.

Any idea?:confused:

Check MD5 of PD98IMG.zip (C3D244A9F056E48EE3851A14FF52204C)

If same MD5, just copy PD98IMG.zip in temp folder (Read FAQ to exact directory).

Relaunch Downgrade (do not close UMT after the copy of PD98IMG.zip because, when you close UMT, all files in temp folder are deleted).

Check all prerequites!

If you follow in the FAQ:

UMT check MD5, then push PD98IMG.zip in your sdcard, etc.
[Desire HD Android Development] rvomnia:
Downgrade frozen? Solved!

Thank you for the very quick reply !:D

In the mean time, I had downloaded the file manually again and tried (after moving it to .../temp) and ... it worked:D! I suppose your guess is right and my first "manual" attempt did not work because the file must have been corrupted (the file got deleted before I could check MD5).

I'll now move on with SIM Unlock, S-off etc...:D

Gold card needed?

Hi, just got my DHD back from service and unfortunately they flashed it with the latest FW so I lost root.

Is it really correct that gold card is only needed if you have an operator branded DHD (ex. T-mobile etc.). But if I have a stock HTC DHD then I do not need a gold card to root.

Correct?
