Correct me if I'm wrong. As far as I understood eng-s-off is automaticly set with s-off. Once s-offed your phone it stays s-offed until you set it s-on again.

You can check s-off in hboot yes. There was a adb-command to check eng-s-off but I've forgotten ist.

If you want to flash your radio you don't have to reinstall your phone again. But you have to flash your radio with flashboot. I've you succes you can be sure your phone is eng-s-offed, too.
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
For all those having issues first watch the YouTube video in op ...

Second in hboot bootloader screen top line should read ship s-off for radio s-off

It will read eng s-off instead of ship s-off for eng s-off

To find super cid in system info it will read cid 1111111

It's advised to do radio s-off first to check you have ship s-off then do eng s-off

Once you have done them they will stay on any custom Rom you flash

You will only lose eng s-off by reverting back to a real stock Rom

You will never lose radio s-off the only way to turn it back on is back using the tool

Supercid can only be changed back by using the tool for it

Issue with getting stuck with green bar not sending

First redownload the radio check the md5 sums match if they don't it will fail to send

Second check the radio is for a dhd do not use a radio that is not official for dhd as it will not work

Third make sure you have done RADIO S-OFF and Eng S-Off if unsure about radio s-off just redo it the bootloader must read eng s-off if not it will cause error remote not allowed

Also to first check adb connection to phone plug phone set as charge onlyin to usb open the folder use the start here to start command prompt type adb devices press enter it should come back list of devices and have your HTC dhd serial number

I think that just about covers everything been asked if I missed something let me know

Over 100k views hundreds of confirms it works its a fool proof method

Your issue is your computer mate try holding shift and right click in the box pop up menu click open command prompt here if that don't work you not got admin rights so next step

Sorry to see you delete your help file Leith.

Just for the record, if it were not for this thread amongst a few others then i dont think i would have bothered rooting and flashing my phone.

Your guides along with others made the whole process so easy.

Please consider putting them back including your rom, there are plenty here who do appreciate all of the time and effort put into this forum, and plenty who can benefit from your time and knowledge in the future.

Stop acting childish and put the guide back. A lot of my time went into it too.

If you won't restore it, I will make a new thread and repost my radio flash package with instructions. There will of course be credits for you too. For the time being, I attached the guide and radio flash package.

Credits go to leith51 (and me..)

I can't flash my radio anymore :( Currently I have the 26.08.04.07_M3 radio, but I wanted to upgrade it to the latest. I have S-OFF, running Nightly #108 with kernel LordMod 4.5.1.

The radio can be sent to the device, but when it's writing, it stops near the end of the vertical bar. I waited for like 10 minutes and it doesn't go any further.

Hi

Im helping a friend flashing a new radio on hos Desire HD, but no matter which method I use, I get an error.

We tried flashing .zip through recovery, no success.

And now we tried using this guide, which I have used before, and we get this error

The phone is radio s-off and ENG s-off, and udb-debugging is ticked. Also fully charged.

And of course the radio.img is in the radio flash folder

what are we missing?
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
That's an easy mistake to make you have typed fastboot flash radio.img

You need to type

[Desire HD Android Development] descenpet:
Type it where you have adb.exe
[Desire HD Android Development] tdogin:
Ok I did and now I get error device not found ugh this sucks
[Desire HD Android Development] descenpet:
There are several possibilities for that.

You didn't install adb drivers on your pc

You didn't enable usb debugging on your phone

You didn't connect it in charge only mode
[Desire HD Android Development] tdogin:
i downloaded the flash from the link here and i extracted it to my desk top and go from there it's in debugging and in charge only
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
Do you have htc sync installed ?

Also try opening the cmd as shown in the video type adb devices it should come back with your phone serial number if not as the above post says you don't have the adb drivers installed so unplug your phone boot into bootloader screen and connect to pc your drivers should install look out for the pop up to say its installing them

If not then 1. You haven't got htc sync installed

Or

2. You will need to remove the drivers and reinstall them I know a good way but not at laptop so can't help till later today

Erm did you follow the guide to the LETTER

Do you actually have radio s-off and ent s-off

Are you actually flashing the correct radio for the phone a.k.a dhd

Have you followed the YouTube video

Do you actually have a adb connection to your phone

Typing it stuck on sending in capital letters with no other info ain't going to get you any help

Oh and have you tried the search function in the thread to see if this has been posted before

Hi leith

a friend of mine has problem with flashing radios?

he said, using each method (I don't know which methods he has used), he get this error : remote:not allowd

any idea?
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
Yep he does not have eng s-off use the link in first post to eng s-off
[Desire HD Android Development] mohammadsp:
thanks

asked him

he said he has eng s-off

what could be the problem?
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
If you look at first post that's the only issue on there "remote not allowed" is because not got eng s-off tell him to double check bootloader screen at top of it what it says it should read PVT ENG S-OFF if it says PVT SHIP S-OFF then he not got eng s-off now if it does say PVT ENG S-OFF there's a possibility that he doesn't have radio s-off in that case will need the link in the first post for that

If all that fails I ain't got a clue possible hboot locked as I don't know which version of sense he using or custom Rom or stock Rom

Also in some very rare occasions flashing a custom Rom has wiped out the eng s-off and people have had to redo it even though they already done it before
[Desire HD Android Development] Desi130312:
So i dont have the recommended radio to match the RIL so i decided to do that.I read through the steps and watched the video a couple of times and thought i had it down, i guess not. When it says, writing "radio", it says it FAILED, in parenthesis it says remote: not allowed , is that okay, please help i dont want to brick my device. I have htc sync installed , i have usb debugging enabled, i have fastboot turned OFF. I have Eng S-OFF and Radio S-OFF. What went wrong???? Please help

P.S. This is what a friend of mine told me to do but I wanted to follow this guide instead^ because I'm too nervous to do this ---> Download a radio from the forum and once downloaded change the name to "PD98IMG.zip" without the quotes. When you place that file on the SD card and load to the boot-menu (holding the power button and volume down button simultaneously while powering up the device -- make sure "fastboot" has been turned "off" in settings) it will automatically read the pd98img.zip file and offer to "update" the phone. follow the instructions and you have flashed the radio.
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
Please read op FAILED REMOTE NOT ALLOWED. Means You Do Not Have ENG S-OFF you can double check in bootloader screen at the top

the method you describe works fine
[Desire HD Android Development] Desi130312:
it says "ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF RL"
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
So you do not have ENG S-OFF follow the link in first post to eng s-off
[Desire HD Android Development] aftab565:
i have both radio s-of and eng s-off ... but in command prompt it hangs on sending radio when i want to flash radio

Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2

current radio version is : 26.03.2.26

these sre the following things i found :

ACE PVT ENG s-off

hboot 0.85.2007

moreover,i checked from system info nd it states : CID-11111111

i guess i have both radio and eng s-off ..

what should i do now to flash a new radio ??

btw @ i have downgraded my phone //
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
And describe the steps you have done to get to being stuck on sending !!!
[Desire HD Android Development] aftab565:
i followed these steps :

1. Read the whole of the post first

2. Download attached Radio flash.zip

3. Extract the folder to anywhere of your choice (MINE IS ON THE DESKTOP)

4. Open the flash folder

5.Download the radio you want to use from the links above .Then Drag and drop radio.img you have downloaded in to radio flash folder

6.In the folder double left click the START HERE a command prompt window will open

7. Type: "adb reboot bootloader"

The adb reboot bootloader will take the device directly to fastboot And I can confirm that this method works also with non Sense roms.

8. Once your phone has rebooted in to bootloader screen Type fastboot flash radio radio.img

9. Once its done type fastboot reboot

and i stuck on 8 step .. it says sending on cmd screen //

my was connected in charge only mode and usb debugging was enables //
[Desire HD Android Development] aftab565:
btw @ when i went for eng s-off i noticed a pop-up window stated

" bootloader corrupt, do not reboot , contact XDA"

but i checked later on and found ace pvt eng s-off and CID-11111111
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
When you got the pop up did you do what it said did you contact them and tell them

If your bootloader is corrupt then its not going to work
[Desire HD Android Development] aftab565:
after many search and research finally my problem has come to a solution from this page http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?t=2929&p=63718
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
Well its on the same basis the difference is there's no having to push anything and the flash folder op is all you need plus an good radio downloaded if you are incapable of following simple instructions that's not my fault over 100k hits and only you have failed to flash a radio.img so the thread is fool proof. I'm not responsible if you can't use it

I also remind you not to spam my thread with links to other websites with more complicated info

hi leith am trying to flash a radio need your help am on original radio what do i need to do coming from 2.3.4 base Rom thanks.

have tried your tuto but it refuses to flash due to typo in CD line my bad.

Edit. solved and flashed

What you mean it refuses?

The guide in the op is fool proof as long as you follow it to the letter including having done in big red letters radio s-off and eng s-off

Yes the video is what made me realize the typo very good explanation there thanks again
[Desire HD Android Development] awiegman:
Ok, so I have a question. I realize I have to match the RIL to my phone, but when I put Leedr0id on my HTC Inspire (which essentially changed it to the HTC Desire HD) I no longer have an FM radio. It didn't bug me for the longest time because I rarely use the FM radio. I also either didn't care, or really didn't notice any loss of performance. (Probably the latter, because I would care if my speeds were reduced. haha) I did upgrade the radio to 26.04.02.17_M2, which, as I see now, is an older version. Should I install the latest stable radio since I still don't have FM? (Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2- HTC Ace Gingerbread S 2.36.405.5) Like I said, Not a problem but I would like to have everything functioning on my device. Also, I don't know if this is relevant but, my audio, be it the speakerphone or the internal speaker, when the volume is turned up all the way has some static. Wondering if having the "correct" radio img will resolve that as well?

Thanks for any help you can provide!

*edit* I'm currently running Leedr0iD ACE v2.2.3 and Kernel V2.2.9

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound ignorant...lol I know the radio.img doesnt mean an actual radio...not THAT dumb ya know! hahaha But of what I have read it does affect everything that uses an "antenne" meaning Cell tower, wifi, bluetooth, annnnd FM.... soooo that being said, I noticed another user at cynogen with the same exact issue... sooo imo it cant be the MOD...has to be the radio were both using... any ideas???

As for the mod... I found that there is an update .... "LeeDr0iD HD v.3.3.3 GB" I'm going to upgrade to this if you can tell me what the stable kernel is for it... I see there is a LeeDr0iD-Ace-GB-V3.2.1-Kernel-2.6.35.14-cfs.zip available but will that work with it? Id really like to try everything I can to correct the radio issue. thanks again.

[Desire HD Android Development] Manneman32:
I have noticed in other threads where some specific radios recommended for specific ROM´s. Virtuous recommends 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2 for their ROM and ARHD 6.1 recommends 12.62.60.27_26.13.04.19_M for their ROM.

In these cases it says something about matching RIL. What is that? Can someone explain?
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
They recommend the radio because that was what was shipped with the Rom and the matching ril is already in the Rom don't get Hung on on ril mate its more trouble than its worth
