[*]Flash the ROM using fastboot

please, correct me if I am wrong, but flashing using fastboot (over USB cable) has a high possibility of bricking device if something goes wrong, wouldn't it be better to flash images from SD card instead?

This is true, I have an HBOOT flash version in development.

Thanks so much for this Great work!

Hi,

thanks for this great post. The shell commands in the scripts are very informative (OS X terminal).

I wanted to flash my orange branded desire (ROM 1.15.x), using a gold card, with PB99IMG_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_
igned.zip from shipped roms.

Can i use the HBOOT method desire.sh script but replace the extracted rom.zip with the PB99IMG.x_signed.zip from shipped roms?
SOLVED: YES YOU CAN

It is my understanding that i will also need to purchase an unlock code to prevent any issues with the wifi and orange branding/radio.

Also could you point me in the right direction as to how i would then go about upgrading the radio to 32.37.00.32U_4.06.00.16_2 ??
SOLVED: NEED ROOT TO UPGRADE RADIOS

Hope you can help.

Jonny

Let me get this clear. You were trying to flash a DESIRE ruu on a HERO?

Doing this will brick your phone.

Here's a big warning:
NEVER FLASH ANYTHING THAT IS NOT MEANT FOR YOUR DEVICE. ALWAYS CHECK IF YOU ARE NOT SURE

I'm sorry to shout but I don't want you to brick. It was hard when I first started too.

Dident try that one, did write wrong, i used a rom for hero.
But, i did fix it with app. rom manager.

greetings

I have a semi-bricked htc desire (stuck in the white background with the HTC green text), if I flash the RUU with this tool i'll be able to restore it with the froyo update.zip?
(I don't have a gold card or a way to make one)

Lurking this forum but decided to emerge from the shadows and second this statement. I permabricked two phones before I really got the hang of everything (samsung transforms) and the first one was purely because I mixed up the marketing name of my phone with the previous one samsung released in that line. Almost all of the actual software going into any ROM was the same but when you flash with that USB cable it is rolling the dice and it doesn't matter how similar the devices are if its for the wrong phone you'll be thanking you lucky stars the carrier will cover it on your warranty/insurance (like I was) or you will be cussing like a sailor (like I was before I remembered the phone was covered.) Once you get the hang of it you'll be a rooting machine. Working on a friend's desire right now which is why I'm lurking this forum, ya'll are lucky you went with the HTCs, these samsungs are garbage.

The USB comment is very astute though, it's always better to flash off the sd card with a recovery then it is to force feed the rom through the cable, but you should still always be comfortable with the USB cable cause you simply can't always git r done with the recovery. I always use adb and recoverys on my samsung which I am pretty much constantly tweaking the rom of and have a stock rom w/ custom recovery that I know works on deck with the tool that does the full cable flash ready to go as a last resort if I go over the top and can't fix things in the recovery or in adb. I never change up that rom used with that tool tho, it's just to reset the phone in a form I know I can work with if I screw up in the safer methods. Switching that up was the second brick (the sprint guy was like "man these must have some kind of defect, that's the third one of these we've gotten back with that issue.....")

all right back to lurking, keep up the good work HTC hax dev-teams!
