[ROM] Android Revolution HD™ 7.0.3 | High Quality & Performance | O/C | Legendary - xda-developers:

NOT COMPATIBLE WITH DEVICES SHIPPED WITH GINGERBREAD 2.3


One click Radio S-OFF tool


HTC - Quietly Unlocked

About:
This tool will make a Desire HD Radio S-OFF after it has been permrooted with Visionary. After running this tool, you can flash any ROM and kernel to your device using ClockworkMod. No bootloader S-OFF needed! You use this tool at your own risk!

What's the difference to other methods?
First of all, this is easy. The steps are straightforward, you do not need to tinker with complicated command line stuff. Radio S-OFF is the way these devices are meant to be made S-OFF, it is a safe way. If you use this method, reverting to stock is very easy! Unfortunately without ENG bootloader (my other tool) you cannot use fastboot commands (advanced stuff) and, for example, my Kernel Update Utility. To make a raw comparison, this tool is for everybody including new users and the eng hboot S-OFF version is for enthusiasts. Many experienced users have both, because having both allows supreme flexibility.

I recommend to use Radio S-OFF instead of traditional bootloader ENG S-OFF, because this can be more easily removed and is much much safer!


System requirements:
  • Windows XP SP2 or higher
  • .NET Framework 4.0
  • HTC Sync (or ADB drivers)
  • Desire HD with stock kernel (or Apache14's 1.0.7 / 1.1.4 Sense)
  • It will not work on 1.72.405.3 or higher build, or new radio (12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M is ok). Downgrade first!!

So, in detail, the Root & S-OFF process goes like this:
  • Install Visionary
  • Open Visionary and tap temproot, then attempt permroot now. Your device will reboot.
  • Connect your phone to a computer (make sure you have USB Debugging enabled. Connect charge only!)
  • Download the Radio S-OFF tool and place it in the root of your hard drive (c:\[tool folder goes here])
  • Open my "Desire HD easy radio tool.exe" (Windows 7, right click & run as administrator), choose the first option, click "Do it"! There may be a SuperUser request on your phone, allow it.
  • Done. (Remember to click the thanks button)
  • But you might want to continue if you are a new user:
  • If you want to flash a radio (to improve signal and battery life) some day, do ENG S-OFF (no need to use Visionary again, just run the tool)
  • To flash a custom rom: Get Rom manager from the market, which will install a ClockWorkMod recovery for you. Just open it up and tap "Flash ClockworkMod recovery"
  • Download a custom ROM, put it to your SD, and flash it using Rom manager or ClockworkMod itself. You can access ClockworkMod through Rom manager. It is recommended to do "wipe data / factory reset" in ClockworkMod before installing ROM from SD card.

It will create a backup of your phone partition 7 (radio config) to the root of your sdcard, I recommend to keep that somewhere really safe!

How to downgrade to 1.32.405.6 WWE (Htc Desire HD)

The problems started when HTC released their 1.72.405.3 OTA update. That update could not be rooted, and many people got stuck in stock roms. Now a downgrade method has arrived! After this process, you can use any root (+ S-OFF) method you want. Basically your device will be just like any other Desire HD with older build version.


System requirements:
  • HTC Sync (or ADB drivers)
  • Desire HD with build number 1.72 or higher
  • [WARNING] Telus DHDs may lose sound because current older base ROMs are not yet compatible with it. Raidroid Series Telus is rooted stock, and works fine.
  • Download and unrar it.  

How to downgrade:
  • IF you have a branded device, you have to make a Goldcard. Use "mmc2" instead of "mmc1"!!
  • Download the attached file and extract it
  • Get stock 1.32 PD98IMG.zip ROM
  • Connect Desire HD to a computer. Charge only, USB Debugging enabled!
  • Open up a cmd and go to Downgrade folder, execute:
Quote:

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:
Quote:
cd /data/local/tmp
./misc_version -s 1.31.405.6


  • Put PD98IMG.zip to your SD card. You can close the cmd and set connection to disk drive.
  • Reboot while holding volume down, it will go to the bootloader
  • Follow the instructions
  • Done. You can now proceed with old S-OFF methods, and remove the PD98IMG.zip from your SD. I recommend Radio S-OFF for new users.

FAQ:
Q: Will I lose all my settings and applications?
- Yes, so make a backup with MyBackup Pro.
Q: I have done Radio S-OFF and SuperCID, do I need this?
- No, with those you do not need this kind of trickery.
Q: It says '#' but I still cannot use root applications!
- That is normal, this method only gives root in command line. Just go ahead and downgrade.

Troubleshooting:
- "Main version is older"? You did not type everything correctly. Please try it again and see if any errors come up.
- "Error opening backup file"? You did not use "Charge only" -connection, or your SD card is faulty.
- "CID mismatch/CID incorrect"? Your device is branded. Just make a Goldcard, put the PD98IMG.zip to the card again and go to the bootloader.
- Zip will not load in bootloader? Format your SD card to FAT32, no quick format! You can try another SD.
- Problems while making Goldcard? See this post.
