Thanks for your reply, it was just an example with orange. I tried also another provider from my country and I could`t get any signal. My Vodafone sim card works flawless. Maybe something`s wrong since it works as it used to when it was locked to vodafone.

LE: I`m confused. In one screenshot it says CID :111111111 and the other one says CID :HTC_032. Why is that?
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
Stop in the support channel in my sig. We'll figure it out.
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
HTC__032 is incorrect, and the program you are using is one step from garbage.

It's pulling CID from ROM properties, which is going to result in bogus.
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
Read the OP.
[Desire HD Android Development] TaFFy4BoBo:
So what's there to do in this case?

Sent from my HTC Desire HD
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
The phone is not SIM locked. Not all SIMs work in all unlocked phones.

There is nothing more to be done regarding unlocking the device.
[Desire HD Android Development] TaFFy4BoBo:
OK, I`ll try with other SIMs and give some feedback. Thanks for you support.

[+]Rush did it ! It's a GG, man !

And the phone is not modified in any way, and it still in the main screen. :confused:

Any suggestions or help?

Thanks for your work I only needed sim unlock but even after going s-on back and on stock rom, I had no problem.
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
please stop in the AAHK Support IRC channel (see link in my sig). I have something new that should work for all sense 3 users, even those with relocked HTC bootloaders. i need testers; both Linux and Windows.

Hi attn1.

Can i use your Hack Kit when i have a Desire HD with a unlocked Bootloader from HTCDec.com?

hBoot Version is 2.00.0029

Br Tom
[Desire HD Android Development] DN41:
Hey,

Short question: am i able to Flash a new radio via fastboot after using AAHK? I know I'm S-Off, is that enough for flashing radio via fastboot?

Thanks a lot.

EDIT: it should be possible to Flash the radio via AAHK itself, right? Which method would be "better"?

DN41
[Desire HD Android Development] groovebiscuit:
I'd like to know this too.
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
Yes, I think so. You may have to relock it, but that's a simple thing to do.

I need testers.
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
fastboot flash radio radio.img - no.

fastboot flash zip radio.zip - yes.

the radio must be zipped up with an appropriate Android-info.txt (PD98IMG stype), is all, then

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip <radio.zip>

fastboot reboot
[Desire HD Android Development] DN41:
Thanks a lot, sir!

So, AAHK is also able to flash radio.zip's but not img's with same method you mentioned?

This would mean to me, that I try to get the new Radio in zip format and can perform the update via AAHK?

DN41
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
Correct.

Or zip them yourself. It's easy - zip radio.img and Android-info.txt into a PD98IMG.zip file.

There are 2 examples of such radio zip files in tools/radio in AAHK - radio-fr1.zip and radio-gb1.zip. Note: rcdata is optional.

These are zipped like PD98IMG.zip files, and can be flashed a couple of ways:

Rename to PD98IMG.zip and place it on the sdcard, then flash it in hboot

fastboot oem rebootRUU > fastboot flash zip nameofzipfile.zip > fastboot reboot

rename it to PD98IMG.zip and follow instructions for flashing your own PD98IMG.zip in found in the Effen Manual.
[Desire HD Android Development] DN41:
Thanks again mate ;)

Can I extract and use the Android-Info.txt out of a radio.zip provided with AAHK?

Is there any risk in bricking the phone? I think as long as I get the right radio, nothing should fail - would i still be able to enter bootloader/recovery after a bad flash?

BTW: Amazing tool - I think you deserve a cold beer for that :)

DN41
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
Yeah, that Android-info.txt should be fine. Flashing radios and hboots is not ever risk free, but the risk is low if you check md5 of the radio image. Tip - zip it, then extract the radio image from the zip again and check the md5. If it matches what it should be, then get the md5 of that zip file. as long as the md5 of the zip file is good as it is passed on, the contents should also be good and the risk remains low.
[Desire HD Android Development] ELN:
Excelent work.
[Desire HD Android Development] buzzboy:
This tool deserves so much praise. A real time saver and a joy to use.

Thanks and Regards
[Desire HD Android Development] TomF1979:
Hi attn1.

I have a question. I have the 3.12.405.1 Rom with "relocked" Bootloader.

When i use the Hack Kit an downgrade it would this also downgrade the hboot version?

Because i would like to go back to the stock hboot version and dont want the modified one from HTC with the unlock/relock feature.

Br Tom
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
Yes, when successful, the downgrade will replace that hboot with the one from the RUU installed.
[Desire HD Android Development] TomF1979:
Downgrade works perfect for me. Thanks for your SUPER-Tool :D

BR Tom
[Desire HD Android Development] DN41:
Thanks attn1!

Ok, but one more round for me ;)

After using AAHK I should be able to use that [TOOL] One click ENG S-OFF.

If I would use that tool to get ENG S-OFF, would I then be able to flash also radio.img's via fastboot?

I also tried to flash a splashscreen img via fastboot, but I got the message, that remote access (or something similar) is forbidden - I think that's related to the same "issue"?

DN41
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
If your device was shipped with Gingerbread - then steer clear of ENG Hboot. If Froyo, then it's fine.

The splash screen would have to be flashed another way without ENG S-OFF, that's all.
[Desire HD Android Development] ravennyc:
Piece of cake! Quite Brilliant! Thanks attn1

Ubuntu LiveCD: 10.04 LTS 32-bit version (as suggested and link provided in effen manual).

Used the latest zip: 12012012

Everything is in the effen manual. Everything!!!

Hands down the best way!!!

Thanks again!

Thanks again.
[Desire HD Android Development] emreeken:
Hello attn1;

You have rooted my DHD last month, if you remember. Now, when I boot into recovery, I see that, I have 4ext recovery. In Android Revolution ROM, it says clockworkmod recovery needed. As I don't know the difference; can I flash clocwork recovery now, or should I update 4ext recovery to the latest version? Can someone give a little information about the difference?
[Desire HD Android Development] SB13X:
You can use either CWM or 4EXT for ARHD don't worry. Always a good idea to upgrade to the latest version and I highly recommend getting 4EXT Recovery Control from the market, does what ROM Manager does for CWM but for 4EXT without the downloading of ROMs.
[Desire HD Android Development] emreeken:
I tried to get Recovery Control, but it's a paid app and google still does not allow Turkish users to buy paid apps.

I've downloaded the free version from 4ext.net instead.

Thanks for your reply.
[Desire HD Android Development] TomF1979:
Hi attn1.

I know you can not respond to all requests. Your program is already perfect. But you think it would be possible in the "back to stock" option to add a selection for the CID?

For German, Austrian and Swiss models need the CID HTC_002 regarding the warranty.

Br Tom
[Desire HD Android Development] bjsbike:
if you need tester's i'll could help? :p
[Desire HD Android Development] darnvil:
Software version 3.13.707.4 is working, thx aahk
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
I've already been thinking about that. I could also use help rounding up some stock gingerbread RUUs that I don't currently have access to.
[Desire HD Android Development] ladoo1985:
Amazing....!!

This guide is the way to go.....thanx to all the devs out their for putting in such a great effort... :)
[Desire HD Android Development] TomF1979:
The only difference between WWE models an German models is the CID. They use the same WWE RUU.

Maybe it was possible to manually type in the CID in the back to stock option (WWE) or a menu to press 1 for htc_001 and 2 for htc_002 :)

Br Tom
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
I think I'd rather have the user pick from a list that the RUU supports.
[Desire HD Android Development] TomF1979:
Thats a fantastic idea :)

Br Tom
[Desire HD Android Development] ryanb248:
I have an issue, I don't know what caused it but after the radio downgrade my phone is stuck on HTC but I can get into hboot. recovery and factory reset won't work. I needs help!
[Desire HD Android Development] groovebiscuit:
If you can get the device into fastboot mode then you can hook it up to your PC and run an official stock RUU. That worked for me when I had a similar issue.
[Desire HD Android Development] ryanb248:
I can but I don't know if this phone was ginger bread or not I'm a noob at this.

It reads:

ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-0.85.0024

MICROP-0438

RADIO-26.03.02.26_M

eMMC-boot

Apr 12 2011,00:55:45

can you point me in the direction of the RUU o.0 please.
[Desire HD Android Development] groovebiscuit:
If your device is unbranded then the latest official one from HTC should work fine.

RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_R_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_233505_signed

If you're device came branded/locked to an operator then I'm not sure; you'd maybe have to get their latest official stock ROM.
[Desire HD Android Development] fugounashi:
Hi,

First, thanks for building and supporting this tool. Last time I looked into rooting, it seemed like it would require many separate tools, and not all of them with Linux support.

I'm rooting for the first time, and it's a Japanese model, so I'd like to check a few details before starting. I'd appreciate any help anyone can offer with these questions.

And finally I'd like to offer some feedback on the script and documentation. I hope it might be useful in making the next release of the kit.

Ok, so my phone is the SoftBank 001HT (HTC Desire HD), shipped with Froyo but OTA upgraded to Gingerbread 2.3.3. (The 2.3.5 Sense 3 OTA update hasn't been pushed out in Japan yet...)

It currently has:

ro.build.version.release=2.3.3

ro.product.version=2.37.762.2

ro.build.description=2.37.762.2 CL47853 release-keys

ro.baseband=26.09.04.11_M2

ro.bootloader=0.85.0024

HTC-RIL 2.2.0131HM (Mar 18 2011,00:40:15)

Linux version 2.6.35.10-g3bf3222 (htc-kernel@and18-2) (gcc version 4.4.0 (GCC) ) #1 PREEMPT Mon Apr 11 22:46:37 CST 2011

So here are my questions and feedback:

Has anyone successfully used the kit on this firmware? Are there likely to be any issues?

"adb devices" correctly lists the phone, while "fastboot devices" gives nothing. Is this a problem?

It seems like fastboot is optional, although this isn't very clear in the docs. In that case though, why bother including it at all?

It looks like the radio will be replaced with "23rd June 2011: Radio_12.56.60.25_26.10.04.03_M - Telus DHD 2.43.661.1." The fact that the radio will be replaced isn't mentioned in the docs.

My current radio seems to be the recommended one. I guess I can get my current radio back by flashing a copy found at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=877295, but it looks like I have to repackage it first.

Apparently the kernel is also replaced? If this is the case then there are the same concerns as for the radio above, with the extra issues of having no idea how to restore my current kernel.

This seems to be the RUU corresponding to my current firmware: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056549 I guess this is enough to return my phone to stock if I need to return it under warranty?

The kit really shouldn't be copying stuff into /bin as root. It could just set the path to include the tools directory (at the start if the included version of adb is important, and at the end otherwise).

It definitely shouldn't be making world-executable setuid root binaries! Is it even necessary to run adb and fastboot as root?

The kit has to be downloaded first before the manual can be read. It might nice to make it available online too.

How does the recent addition of the Desire HD to the official HTC Unlock Bootloader supported devices list change things? I guess it means that I can use HTC Unlock Bootloader if I only want to change ROMS, but I still need to use the kit if I want S-OFF, SIM unlock, or another radio or recovery?

Thanks!

HTC version

Is it compatible of the version "3.13.832.4" ?

SD card will clear or not?

Thanks
[Desire HD Android Development] MariusOX:
I've tested this and i can confirm that it worked. But it is as you said attn1, you have to relock the bootloader before running the AAHK.
[Desire HD Android Development] linux33it:
OK but how do you...please
[Desire HD Android Development] MariusOX:
Lock the bootloader?

Boot into fastboot, connect phone to PC, run cmd, cd to wherever you have fastboot, type: fastboot oem lock.

This will lock your bootloader again =)
[Desire HD Android Development] linux33it:

You have to follow the steps carefully, it seems many people on here fail to do so.

SIM Lock

Hi !

How can I restore my SIM Lock status, because this tool won't backup anything and a stock RUU won't relock my SIM. Now I've lost my guarantee. HELP !
[Desire HD Android Development] Dod6:
You can't restore it. Don't worry service won't look at it :)

[Desire HD Android Development] SsZzliMm:
Really great! If they will I'm going to be screwed >.< Why it hasn't got a backup function? With the Easy Radio S-OFF has it, and I can restore my original data, when I have to. Anyway thanks for the answer! I'm a little bit pissed now :(
[Desire HD Android Development] Gene Poole:
1. You knew you were violating the warranty when you rooted your phone.

2. SIM unlock does not violate warranty.

3. You DO have a backup (or did). It is stored as something like part7backup-1313089348.bin (where "1313089348" is the timestamp when it was backed up).
[Desire HD Android Development] SsZzliMm:
1-2. Because I bought my phone from T-Mobile it was locked to T-Mobile. In this case I lost my warranty, because I can use other services SIM cards to, not just T-Mobile.

3. This tool has not created part7 backup file and that is my problem.

[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
SIM unlock alone does not void warranty, since you can do this without hacking the phone in any way.

Yes, it did. Even so, if you know your carriers's cid and can locate the correct RUU for it, you can return the phone to stock configuration if it's not too broken.
[Desire HD Android Development] Kilawo:
No way.

Thanks man for your help, but this trick no work for me. :o

SuperOneClick (v2.2) and Advance ACE Hack Kit are unable to root my phone. :(

The first tell me that all is OK, but nothing happens. In addition, Advance ACE Hack Kit is unable to downgrade the system. :confused:

No way for the time being. :confused:

Join the support channel and be patient and someone will help

If you read the effen manual, you would have seen where it said to backup the sdcard because this happens in a low percentage of cases.

It happens sometimes - not often. Since the process is automated, where is the variable that causes it in a low percentage of cases?
[Desire HD Android Development] djolebih:
Actually a quick question. Can I use this to unroot or not?

[Desire HD Android Development] SpiritStealer:
Hello guys....

i was rooting my unbranded DHD with AAHK, and everything was great untill the last phase of downgrading (since it got 3.13.415), i don't know what went wrong but i finished up with htc logo on white screen... so i got panic and started to search and downloaded a stuck RUU since i had S-ON and tried to flash it but the tool said it's not compatible with my version or something, then i did something really stupid "i flashed a rom without knowing its version or anything about it" i got it from tutorial about rooting before i found AAHK... so i went to hboot and flashed that rom and it worked and it said power to restart and i hit it.... the later boot up took about 20 minutes and it kept viberating for about 10 minutes... then i checked my version and it was "android 2.2" :$ i know u guys said that i shouldn't downgrade shipped GB to Froyo, but here i'm stuck with it.... i tried to make OTA update but i got stuck at the update screen and i had to take it to repairing guy to get it to boot up once again... now o have a DHD running 2.2 without root and mostly S-ON "cuz the AAHK didn't complete its work", and i want to update it to 2.3.5 official and it's really hard to get to the hboot menu cuz it takes about 10 minutes to show the white screen after pressing the power button, so i was thinking about flashing RUU through the PC, i found at some website the following

"UNBRANDED HTC

RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_225512_signed.exe

and my DHD infos are

so what do u advise me, what do u think it's better for me to do

btw i use arabic language and the flashed rom i got doesn't include arabic... and even the one i asked about "as i think" doesn't include arabic... so do u know any rom that contains arabic language " in the mean time i'm not that fan of rooting and such stuff i only want my dhd to work fine -as i bought- "

thx for u help

Only on some DHDs. I dont have stock GB RUU's available for all.
[Desire HD Android Development] attn1:
So you gave up on the hack kit, which was obviously working but YOU interrupted, to recklessly use something else containing a Froyo hboot, which the hack kit warns about explicitly?

I'm at a loss as to why you should be helped here, but here it is:
[Desire HD Android Development] djolebih:
That's ok. Plenty of stock RUUs to choose from. Thanx.
