Guest Thunderbirds Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 I clicked yes on OTA update to official froyo 2.2, now my bootloader is 0.92, I've tried downgrade the bootloader before but result in SLCD brick, i've got it fix using the update.zip method, however it still 0.92 and stay with 2.2.

Guest persko Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 Currently you cannot root a Desire with a bootloader above 0.80, there are people working on cracking the newer boot loaders, or find a way to downgrade the boot loader; but when/if that will happen nobody knows.

Guest wiggy6230 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 (edited) Hi, I follow the guide at this link, it details everything you need and has video hows as well, which are good to watch as a visual to the written guides. I was on an OTA 2.2, bootloader upgraded to 0.92 and have managed to downgrade to 0.80 and then root and update to 2.2 as per the guide I flash using the unrevoked method decribed. Also my HTC Desire has an AMOLED screen. I have flashed a few MoDaCo custom R8 ROMs and not had any problems. http://www.android-tutorials.org/dev/?page_id=78 Also a very good question and asnwer section at this link on XDA. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=749551 I am far from an expert in this, I read and learn alot from the forums.
