Yes, and debug is on. But when i connect with charge only i get a popup from htc sync that the desire hd port wont work or something..
[Desire HD Android Development] gav_DHD:
strange problem

follwed the guide to the letter and it went to bootloader everything worked ok update sucessful but it stays on 1.72 and wont downgrade can some please tell me what am i doing wrong cheers
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Update successful but won't downgrade, what do you mean?

tomah: Most likely a driver related issue then. Remove HTC Sync and install a new one from HTC website.
[Desire HD Android Development] goran60:
I am very glad that someone has succeeded and yet it published on the forum.

I asked you to clarify to me how you managed to get the CMD all what it says on the first post.
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Many people succeed in this, only the ones that cannot understand the instructions / have weird issues post here. Just look at the download count :D

Start by googling how to use cmd and cd command to get to the right folder, then you just have to write the commands. You do not need to be experienced, everything is in the instructions. Just use common sense.
[Desire HD Android Development] goran60:
I respect your work but what is your routine for me is a mystery. the right guide you gave me when you said to find how to use CMD. yes, that I will do it to me is the problem. Do not get angry, it still needs a little help for beginners

thanks and regards!
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
I did not mean to sound irritated, I have to work on it :) Feel free to ask if you have questions about some step.

hi

the best way to downgrade 1.32

1- download and install

RUU_Ace_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.32.707.1_Radio_12.28a.60.140e_26.03.02.08_M_release_153610_signed

search on google

2- root with visionery
[Desire HD Android Development] furrypotato:
Sorry, I dont think I explained it well. I did format the card before I started the goldcard process.

I think I'll try again tomorrow and download the zip file again and try with another sd card I have ( I've got 3 sandisk cards altogether, one of them must work :)

Does it need to be formatted using Windows pc ? I only have ubuntu but did format it to fat32.
[Desire HD Android Development] atre2003:
Finally it worked!!! follow the guide to the letter and BE VERY CAREFULL when making the gold card. I've had a very hard time making it. I've tried 2 or 3 cards until i've made it. And, when formatting the card, UNcheck quick format: format it fully.
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
It might not like cards formatted using Linux system, it has been confirmed to work with Windows.
[Desire HD Android Development] furrypotato:
Ok thanks.

Time to dig out my old XP laptop that barely works I guess.

I'll have time tomorrow to have a go with 2 or 3 cards.

And I'll take the advice to fully format the card, not just quick format ( Ubuntu doesnt give the choice but I can tell it's been quick formatting them as it only takes 30 seconds)

I WILL get Cyanogenmod installed tomorrow, this wil NOT defeat me !! :D

Thanks for your help BTW
[Desire HD Android Development] gav_DHD:
hi there basically it starts the process and says updating then successful im a noob lol
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Okay. What does the build number in Settings>About>Software information say?
[Desire HD Android Development] gav_DHD:
ok so my phone has s-off already what do i need to do now just download the 1.32 RUU ?? im not sure what to do lol
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Yes, just download it and put it to your SD :)
[Desire HD Android Development] nm8:
my DHD was originally 1.32 rom and I have Rooted, Radio S-off, S-off, super CID then installed Leedroid rom with recommended Radio update.

If I want to go back to 1.32 rom, do I still have to follow the guide in the first post?

Cheers
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
No, but you can still use the PD98IMG zip to flash the original ROM if you want to :) It will remove ENG S-OFF and ClockworkMod, might be useful if you want to return your phone for warranty.
[Desire HD Android Development] nm8:
Hi

Sorry for my unclear question. I meant do I still need to do these commands first:

=======================

adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp

adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp

adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter

adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version

adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter

adb shell

If you got "#" in the result, you have temproot! Proceed:

=======================

I know my DHD is still rooted as I permrooted it and I can check using terminal emulator.

Sorry for asking such stupid questions, I'm not a programmer, I'm just a simple guy...

edit:

I've downloaded the PD98IMG.zip - may I know which specific RUU is inside it?
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
No need to run those, just download (like you did), put it to SD and reboot to bootloader :)

It is 1.32.405.3
[Desire HD Android Development] bohmy1190:
Hey, I just tried it but it didn't work!

I got the error:

CID incorrect!

Update Fail!

But i do not have a provider-version... I have the 1.72.405.3

Anyone an idea?
[Desire HD Android Development] Dallenlim:
Does Get stock 1.32 PD98IMG.zip have any another download link like Dropbox ?

I followed the steps in the first post and got temproot successfully

when I downloaded the zip file to SDcard and rebooted it said wrong image or no image

I downloaded it from another mirror but the same thing happend

my SDcard is the stock 8GB that came with the phone

I had the same problem with old 1GB sd (not sdhc) and flashed it via PC successfully

is it possible to do it via pc now?

I dont have any other microSDHC card with me

I tried to extract rom.zip from official 1.32.405.6 RUU and renamed put on SDcard but same error message popped up

how can I downgrade please?

I wasted almost half a day trying to do it:(

//edit

ok

formatting the card did the trick

but I have no idea why I had to format it:D
[Desire HD Android Development] tommychong76:
Tried the asia rom and it fails with invalid customerID. Still on 1.72
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
You have to make a goldcard.
[Desire HD Android Development] nm8:
I just used the RUU exe I downloaded from here somewhere.

I am now back to the old 1.32 rom and original radio. Hboot shows ship s-off. There's no choice now for system info. How do I tell now if I'm still super CID ?
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
If you used the first option in Radio Tool, you will be SuperCID. You really cannot test it easily. S-OFF and SuperCID go in the same time, so as S-OFF worked, so did SuperCID :)
[Desire HD Android Development] novanab:
Guys I have finished doing the cmd part of this guide succesfully but when it says to place the zip on the SD card i cannot see the SD card since the phone is set to charge only? what should i do
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
You can now set it to disk drive :)
[Desire HD Android Development] novanab:
ahh thanks a lot ... was the logical step, but i just wasnt sure :P
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
@jkoljo your guide says 1.32.405.3 in screen shot I've suggested 1.32.405.6 as some people are find visionary r14 not working right with it

Also got a question got a poor soul struggling with this guide coming off branded Orange 1.75 and its not going through I suggested to downgrade to Orange Rom 1.40 then use your radio s-off and simunlock to get the stock 1.32.405.6 does that sound about right to you

Yeah that would work. I will upload 1.32.405.6 tomorrow.

Hello, you allways write: copy PD98IMG.zip to sd card, but how to copy ? Which tool, etc ?
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Just put it there, like you would put music to your memory card or any other stuff. Change connection type (in notification bar) to Disk drive, and your phone should be visible in "my computer" like a USB memory stick.

It's the attached file...

What SDK folder :confused:

Please read the post above.
[Desire HD Android Development] descenpet:
PD98IMG.zip is actually safer and easier than RUU. just put the file in SD card and go to fastboot mode and it should automatically do the rest.

as for the downgrade folder thing, there is an attachment on first post called downgrade.zip. if you extract that, you will get downgrade folder.. :eek:
[Desire HD Android Development] I'm TheQuest:
Hi, descenpet

Many thanks once again for your help with this.

I saw the downgrade.zip link, but as it was after the How to downgrade quote, I thought it was for something else. :(

So I do not need to use the Commands with the PD98IMG.zip then?

You would have to use those with the RUU, too. So yes, you have to follow the guide step by step.

Damn... the guide worked perfectly first time around, however no matter what I do I get a CID error in the bootloader... I'm 100% sure I've followed the Goldcard steps correctly and have a nice Goldcard, but the error still persists.

Did you use mmc2 in the command while making the goldcard?

adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:*/cid

Thank you for your reply and help.

TheQuest :cool:

PS: Sorry I can not give you a THANKS, as it says I am only allowed ti give five a day. of which I must have used. :o
[Desire HD Android Development] krakout:
I don't remember if it was mmc2 - I just tried mmc0 through 2 till I found a response... is it critical that it's set at 2? And what do you do if there's no feedback (device not found) at mmc2? I'll check though - preparing yet another SD as I'm typing this!

[EDIT] Ok, with another card, I tried mmc2 straight away. Followed the instructions again, got temproot, booting now... crossing fingers........checking.....checking.....still checking dammit....aw for love's sake, how much checking?....YES!!!!!!

YEEEEES! It's now updating!

So, in essence, mmc2 is really important.

One note, it says that you have to put it in USB Charging mode only; I have found that this doesn't work, it must be in HTC Sync mode in my case...
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Without 2 it will not work, so I would say that it is critical. Remember to enable usb debugging.
[Desire HD Android Development] krakout:
Thanked properly, too. I thought that you can't just try an arbitrary device name - it has to be there, that' why I wasn't sure. Oh, anyway, on with the hacking and slashing now :)

And yes, debugging is always critical I guss!

[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Yes it should be in same card, are you sure that it is in the root of the SD? You may have to format (not quick format) your card to FAT32.

You should not do adb shell before pushing.

Hi jkoljo

Just must thank you again for your help in downgarding.

After downgrading, there are two .bin files on my SD, one from using the downgrade commands and the other from using your Easy Radio tool.

Finally I did downgrade. There was trouble as a beginner I did not understand how to use the CMD (it was enough to be told that I need to type in the command path)

Now there is another problem and wonder "why can not do S-Off?". when you go as it appears in the tutorial progress bar reaches half and get a notice "possible that your device is not root. "

although with Visionari everything went as he had written it impossible to do.

how to solve this problem?

I was originally on stock 1.32.405.6 once rooted radio s-off eng s-off and supercid I had flashed custom Rom and radio was having a few problems so I downloaded the official signed WWE htc 1.32.405.6.exe ruu and just ran it through laptop and it worked fine

Drawbacks

Had to reroot and redo eng s-off

But

Still had radio s-off and supercid

Do you think this would work on any unbranded and branded phones alike if they need to downgrade again ?

Example Orange phone without use of goldcard run the 1.40.xxx.x build ?

E=Mc2
[Desire HD Android Development] nm8:
sorry I cant answer your question, but I was in a similar boat before. How did you know after doing RUU that the phone was still Super CID? The system info menu in hboot was gone after flashing though its still Ship S-off on mine.

[Desire HD Android Development] Centropy:
You Realy Helpt me out man!!! (had) a Vodafone DHD ... now im ready for some nice roms... tnx again!
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Because Radio S-OFF and SuperCID survive anything until you remove them with my tool.

goran: the radio on 1.7x blocks disabling write protection of internal memory, so S-OFF cannot be done.
[Desire HD Android Development] goran60:
you have an alternative? given the opportunity get some Rom S-OF?

if all users who downgrade desire HD have this problem?
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Umm, just downgrade and then you can S-OFF, there is no way around it.
[Desire HD Android Development] leith51:
I because when I re did eng s-off I went in system info and checked

[Desire HD Android Development] goran60:
I downgrade my device and I followed all the steps from the first post and finally I could make the S-OFF, although the complete procedure followed and everything went smoothly until the part. In applications I got the icon "superuser" Room Manager shows me as if the phone is rooted. when trying to create S-off (with your tool) progress bar comes up and then we pay the warning message appears as shown:

Do you have:

- HTC Sync installed

- .NET 3.5 installed

- The whole package extracted, not just radio tool.exe

do you mean when framevork NET you say NET 3.5?

I have installed Net Framevork 3.5. whether it is possible that anti-virus real problems (although I turn off when you work)?

You need to disable antivirus while installing HTC Sync.. Just try another PC.

hey friends

i got unlocked uk tmobile dhd ,

does this means i have branded device ,do i have to make goldcard too

thanks in advance
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
You can check it by downloading "terminal emulator" from market. Write:

If it returns TMOB -something, it is branded.
[Desire HD Android Development] krakout:
Wow... are you 100% sure? Because I had a T-branded one. I created a goldcard alright, everything seemed ok, downgraded from 1.75, flashed custom ROM, custom Radio, custom Boot image... and it returns T-MOB101 in Terminal. But if it's still branded, then what is it that I *can't* do?
[Desire HD Android Development] jkoljo:
Ah, the point is that getprop ro.cid always returns the original CID. You device has SuperCID if you have used my radio tool, so you can do anything you want.
