try this>>>>>

open the ruu setup and do not click on and let it open, look in the temp directory of your windows user, according to the extracted files of the setups and replace try something there maybe it will work, I have not tried it yet because most processed rom . zip files stop at the signature and the md5 check.
[Wildfire Android Development] mysql2779:
As if I wan to downgrade my wildfire in order to root . does it downgrade work ? Because u said tat "Will not downgrade the HBOOT" . Newbie here.. dont flame me~ thx..
[Wildfire Android Development] hans3103:
wait for an other way to root. Downgrading the rom to 2.1 dont give a possible way to root because it will still have the new hboot. The unrevoked team say weeks a go that they are working on it but i guess still without succes. Just wait a read the forums.
[Wildfire Android Development] dj_destruction:
I have extracted the 2.2.1 firmware and the rom.zip file within it!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi i am unable to post in Dev area, I have managed to extract the .exe from the 2.2.1 to revel all the files including the rom.zip file to which the hboot file is in there.

Do you think we can change the hboot file and fake it to think its 1.01.001 when infact is a hboot file that can be rooted.

I am kind of new to the android platform but not to linux. My device came with 2.2.1 pre installed. This is just a idea weather it will work i don't know.

Could you post this question in the forum that you posted asking the same question with the words that i have managed to extract everything. Thanks

this was a pm sent to me, i am just posting it incase any one can answer
[Wildfire Android Development] beastaki23:
nice idea. I have tried to replace hboot img.zip with a clockworkmod once,but signature failure came up. I will try also your way although i don't know much.hopefully a solution will be released SOON.
[Wildfire Android Development] Ouistyty:
Nice try. And if you test with the img.zip from the older official RRU?
[Wildfire Android Development] dj_destruction:
I can pull the hboot.nb0 file from the rom.zip from the RUU 2.1 change the .nb0 to .img and open it in a hex editor im seeing what i could change to make it think its the 1.01.0001 hboot but i dont have the hboot_1.01.0001.nb0 to compare them both in the hex editor, i think if its possible we will need to edit the recovery.img and hboot.img to for it to work, as i say its a theory but i will be looking at it tonight to see where its different and if its possible. :p
[Wildfire Android Development] hans3103:
its a thought in the right direction i hope. Lets hope tomorow you know more about this subject.......If i can help with things.....I am not new.... but certainly no expert.
[Wildfire Android Development] dj_destruction:
Thank you im not new to android but im pushing my knowledge with this lol if i could get a .zip of 2.22.405.1 wwe froyo rom that would be a great help!!!! :D
[Wildfire Android Development] beastaki23:
I have done my study too, but with no success. if you want an original froyo then try downloading one from http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Buzz/

also you need tools to split .img files such as split_bootimg.pl (linux user), but I haven't successfully found a tool to recreate the updated .img to recreate the rom (hopefully fixed).
[Wildfire Android Development] dj_destruction:
there is a linux magician im in contact with exploring all the possabilities regarding the hboot, root, s - off etc as we speak and its looking promising :D well update as i have news as im struggling to keep up with the magic lol
[Wildfire Android Development] dj_destruction:
Ok it was looking good but i dont think its doable yet! i have been on unrevoked irc chat and they arent any closer to getting root, the guy who set up alpharev can get the wildfire to permanent s-off and full root but he does it using the hardware so needs your phone to do it as there is no way to do it through the software yet, and he lives in holland so its gonna cost 20 euros plus two way shipping! Im a bit warey of sending my phone to strangers tho so i declined lol.
[Wildfire Android Development] antonio1475:
Oh, noo! I am saddened to read that... :'(
[Wildfire Android Development] dem012:
So we stuck again in 2.1 with the new hboot.Can we flash to old one 0.80 using a flash tool?
[Wildfire Android Development] dj_destruction:
Nope im afraid even unrevoked and alpharev are stuck in getting root so we got no chance lol. I for one have had enough of HTC and will be selling my wildfire so i wont be updating this thread as there seems there is nothing to update any more...... It seems the only way to get s-off and root is to use something similar to jtag to flash the phone direct through the hardware but i dont have the knowledge/software/hardware connections for this.........
[Wildfire Android Development] bro406:
so...

Can flash custom froyo?.....i'm getting bored with official 2.2....
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
No, No, and, No.
[Wildfire Android Development] BlasBlas:
Hi,

Can you give us a way of contacting the person who wanted to flash your wildfire by jtag? I'm thinking of doing it.

kind regards Blas
[Wildfire Android Development] dem012:
Where i can find Hboot 0.80 nbo ? i make my tests try to downgrade.Can someone advice please.

Best regards

dem
[Wildfire Android Development] Birthe88:
Just download a ruu with hboot 0.80, open the install, and look for the temp dir for the install, in there you will find a rom.zip, extract it and in here you will find the hboot nb0
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Just get an Eclair RUU from the Shipped ROM's website. It must be having the old HBOOT.
[Wildfire Android Development] beastaki23:
ok, I tried that. I downloaded an official eclair (not OTA) and extracted the rom from my temp folder while running. but it failed installing from the recovery (hboot 1.01.001). If you have any progress inform us
[Wildfire Android Development] dem012:
I have a ruu from shipped rom but how i can find it. i open the ruu i find a temp folder for ruu but nothing inside.Can someone upload it here please i use ruu 1.37 :confused:
[Wildfire Android Development] beastaki23:
rom from ruu is extracted in the temp folder as long as you run the ruu.exe. if you exit the ruu.exe it will be deleted from the temp as not nessesery.
[Wildfire Android Development] Birthe88:
I highly doubt you have the expertise to do this, if you are already stucked in extracting the hboot.nb0
[Wildfire Android Development] ErwinP:
I agree, but you can give it a chance. A tutorial how to extract files from a RUU can be found if you google for "Extracting ROM files from a HTC Android RUU The 'No Idea' Blog " en take the first hit.

You can find the "hboot_7225_0.80.0007_100809.nb0", extracted from "RUU Buzz HTC World Wide English softwarenumber 1.37.405.1 - Radio 13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25 - release 151892 signed" here attached.

Good luck dem012 :)

[Wildfire Android Development] dem012:
Thanks man i try my test and i let you know my ideas soon

best regards

[Wildfire Android Development] dungquoc:
Any news from Unrevoked?
[Wildfire Android Development] beastaki23:
ok, here comes an idea. since we downgraded the froyo this way, why cannot we try to do the same with hboot? change its version number and when we install the ruu with hboot 0.80 (for example) it will replace the hboot (as it does with froyo) too.
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
It has already been tried AFAIK, and it did not work. Gives some incorrect bootloader error or something if I remember correctly.
[Wildfire Android Development] beastaki23:
I want to give it a shot, so does somebody know where is hboot stored for me to try?
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
There's a discussion on the previous page, you will also find the old HBOOT attached.
[Wildfire Android Development] beastaki23:
I mean in the device, has someone found the hboot version number ( 1.00.0001 ) in any file for me to try to change it?

Otherwise, is there anyway extracting any file from the device memory into a pc to search for the version myself?
[Wildfire Android Development] beastaki23:

hboot 1.01.0002

hi i have this hboot version is it possible to downgrade it or root it??

hboot 1.01.0002:confused:
[Wildfire Android Development] ReyTech:
no not possible as of today! so wait or get to work to do it yourself
[Wildfire Android Development] beastie-boy:
Reverted 2.1 ROM successfully!

It works! Many thanks for posting this guide!!!

Bought my phone a month ago and flashed official froyo update next day. In fact, I was only interested to turn off htc (non)sense sh*t, but this instruction here: youtube.com/watch?v=u0hJIKVMFyM was for 2.1. HTC blocked this possibility in 2.2. My phone works now much faster with standard android desktop, I'm happy. :cool:

I was wondering if bumping 2.1 my rom version now to 1.37.405.1 (flashed 1.25.405.1 as the guide suggested) can update (downgrade) boot loader?
[Wildfire Android Development] abhishek69:
If after downgrading i want to upgrade again to the official 2.2,will i be able to do that???
[Wildfire Android Development] straian:
Yes It's possible.
[Wildfire Android Development] hashimjamal:
Guys,

Do something, I need the round battery icon of custom roms badly on my WF.

I wonder whether unrevoked teams read these threads....
[Wildfire Android Development] hashimjamal:
Hello guys,

Today I went to one of the mobile repairing shop at Karol Bagh, New Delhi, India,

This guy had got xtc-clip and he made my Wildfire S-OFF in 500 bucks.

Now my HBOOT is : .80.0007.

I then installed one of the official rom : RUU_Buzz_hTC_Asia_India_1.25.720.1_Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35.15.31_release_142213_signed.exe

and it got successfully installed.

Then I ran SuperOneClickv1.5.5 and clicked "Root" instead of "Shell Root".

It successfully rooted my device.

Then I installed superuser from android market followed by Rom Manager.

Then I started the rom manager and clicked "Flash Clockworkmod recovery", it gave the message "Successfully downloaded Clockworkmod recovery"

Now when I install rom from sd card, the device simply restarts and I get a big red triangle when It should show my clockworkmod console.

Means I am not able to install clockworkmod recovery, though I have rooted the wildfire and also the hboot is downgraded to .80.0007.

Guys, help me out wherever I am going wrong.
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Why dont you simply root using Unrevoked?
[Wildfire Android Development] hashimjamal:
Sorry guys,

Missed out on unrevoked part that I did.

Unrevoked v3.21 gives the error : Validation error: Backup cid missing.

and when I run unrevoked v3.22 : a force close message appears on the mobile screen and unrevoked app says: Error: Failed to get root, is your firmware too new?

Any guesses as to where is my cid gone???
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:

Can someone give me a link for stock rom 2.1
[Wildfire Android Development] hashimjamal:
Write shipped-roms on google, open the 1st link....
[Wildfire Android Development] B0RI5:
I used this guide and it worked pretty well.

But 1 question:

If i choose a custom om (maybe cm7) and change the versionnumber (11th row) to the Custom rom number.

...what will happend?

I wont use thinks like CPU-OC and other stuff that needs SU rights.

I ask because its maybe a way to get a "custom rom" on our HBoot 1.* Phones.

We get the nice Custom Roms, but we wont get SuperUser things like OC and *what ever*
[Wildfire Android Development] antonio1475:
Interesting... But if you have HBOOT 1.01... you have stock recovery, so you need a signed ROM (.zip .img or whatever) by HTC, or HTC Recovery won't flash it. So, we are still stuck...

:)
[Wildfire Android Development] buzzworkers:
Geeezz are we really stuck ?

using a 100€ XTC is the only way possible ? http://xtc.hk/index.html

is this device doomed to oblivion ?

I was hoping to give some good news to a wildfire's friends device

but i guess he'll be happier with a new phone right ?

2.1update1

Hi, I have a Wildfire with firmware 2.1update1 and unrevoked tells me the firmware is too new. The HBoot is still 0.80.0003 however, so could I use this guide to downgrade to a stock 2.1 rom, then use unrevoked to root? Thanks.
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
No doubt. Wildfire is already EOL after the release of the Wildfire S

Before that, try using an old version of Unrevoked. It may just work. (3.14 / 3.21)
[Wildfire Android Development] aman_idrish:
hello 3xeno

i am downgrade htc wildfire 2.1

how to root

unrevoked error any other option

thanks
[Wildfire Android Development] kingrps:
Hi mate,just a quick question. if I downgrade from 2.2 to 2.1 will I be able to root my phone again?

Pm and let's no please.
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Downgrading via this guide will only downgrade the OS. NOT the HBOOT, which is required for rooting.

So, following this guide,

you will not be able to root, even after downgrading.

As I have said many times before,, the only way as of now is finding someone with an XTC Clip, getting S-OFF and then root.
[Wildfire Android Development] van_phu07:
It Worked! big thanks!
[Wildfire Android Development] Sh0X31:
is this usefull with hboot 1.01.0001 to make get root?

Some idea,

Can we downgrade or update to roms of other HTC's like desire, legend etc..., Root it, then Install ROM 2.1 of wildfire... Then the hboot obviously get downgraded to 0.80, if not we can still root it...

Just an idea I'm thinking of doing it but I'm out of station so can't try...

Can someone try it...

There may be a problem of malfunctioning not sure so be careful...

is this guide applicable for wildfire s with 2.3.3 aswell ?

[Galaxy Tab General] dhaddow:
I have a problem with USB Debug mode. When I select debug mode and plug the Tab into my computer, I only get the usb connected notification. The Tab's drives don't show up in windows explorer. But when I look in device manager, both drives are showing. The drives also show in the Disk Management utility in windows as H & I but no media.

Has anyone come across this one before or able to offer suggestions on how to sort it.

All other USB modes work ok eg. Mass storage, Kies and Media.
[Galaxy Tab General] dhaddow:
Nobody got any ideas? I really need to get this working so I can use Super one click to root my Tab :(
[Desire General] guy27:
Hi, i enabled usb debugging and then ran unrevoked then half-way it asked drivers for "Android Bootloader Device" and i got Add new Hardware window. I then clicked on 'Install Software Automatically" and it takes about 15 minutes to install drivers then unrevoked finishes sucessfully. I then installed the ROM sucessfully. My question is why driver install takes 15 minutes and i dont also have HTC Sync installed? Is there any other way i can install drivers quicker?
[Desire General] Lennyz1988:
You should have installed the drivers before you run unrevoked.

You needed to boot your phone in bootloader and then install the drivers.
[Desire General] guy27:
I have already installed the drivers but it keeps asking for drivers everytime i root any desire. Any ideas? Or should i select "android_winusb" file when it asks for drivers?
[Desire General] davebugyi:
Install the modified USB drivers from unrevoked website, and always before running unrevoked.Like this.

Never asked me again for drivers.

[G2 and Desire Z General] DMC78:
I have had the G2 for two weeks now (first Android phone) and while I dig the phone, I never use the hardware keyboard like I thought I would (Swype is excellent). My camera hardware button doesn't work and Tmo said that I need to send it in for a new one, and the guy said that he would give me the MyTouch 4G if I wanted it. It's tempting since I don't use the keyboard. Any ideas? I know that the G2 is more stock version of Android compared to Sense on the Mytouch, but I like the idea of the slimmer phone. It looks like both have ROMs being developed.
[G2 and Desire Z General] dustrho:
All I can tell you is that I went through five MyTouch4Gs to realize that there are numerous issues with them. I encountered creaking/squeaking buttons and a washed-out display, others have experienced cracked bezels, dust under the display, FFC not centered and more. I really, really wanted to enjoy that phone, but after going through five of them I gave up on it, and went with the G2. Best decision I've made on a phone. Never did I think I would need or use the physical keyboard, but now that I've had it for a few weeks I now use it all the time. It's a wonderful keyboard, and I have no regrets going from the MT4G to the G2.

My advice to you would be to do some homework in the MT4G sections of XDA, to see what others have to say about it. Lots of problems for many, not all, and the one other thing that sucked about that phone is the lack of ROM development. It finally started picking up steam when I got my G2, but it's still nothing compared to the ROM development being done on a daily basis for the G2.
[G2 and Desire Z General] DMC78:
Excellent, thanks for the help. One thing I keep thinking about is how long folks hung onto their G1, and I dig the build quality of the phone too.
[Vega General] Lennyuk:
Who here is looking forward to seeing what sort of speeds we can push the vega too once we get hold of the kernel sources?

I don't think its needed but I still like to see what it can do :)
[Vega General] O_G:
Free extra "performance" is always a good thing;)
[Vega General] Zebwen:
To be honest, I'm kind of more interested in more underclocking features. The Vega has a LOT of power, and if the dynamic throttling isn't great in the stock Kernel, then we're wasting a lot of battery for no reason. Better dynamic underclocking will help us squeeze more battery life out of the Vega, especially when it's in standby ;)
[Vega General] zzleezz:
Overclocking is something I would want to see but only sometime in the future as a way to extend the products life in the face of increasing minimum spec requirements.

Would be far more interested in other developments like CIFS and NTFS. Not much longer I hope!
