HTC Desire Stock Froyo Rooted

[Guest neo158]

I don't know if this has already been posted but Unrevoked 3.21 will root a stock HTC Froyo ROM without the HBOOT downgrade, it will even allow you to switch security off and flash clockworkmod recovery. I just tried it out today and it works :lol: .

Yep, I can verify this.

I have an O2 branded HTC Desire which I updated from 2.1 to 2.2 through the O2 downloadable updater.

You stitll need b oth the HTC USB driver package (with HTC Sync uninstalled) and the USB drivers supplied by unrevoked but it will even flash the dreaded SLCD version (HBOOT 0.93) without a flaw.

A lot of downgrade how-tos just became irrelevant. \o/

So just to confirm... this allows full RW to system?

From what I've read on CDMA phones yeah. GSM phones no.

HBOOT 0.93 isn't just the SLCD screens - it's phones on the latest update (2.10.405.2 and above)

Hmmm,

I have just tried to root my Desire using unrevoked 3 and it seems to go throught the motions but ends on an

"internal error couldn't find misc" error message......

I am running a stock O2 Froyo Desire with HBoot .93.......Any ideas?

Yes I have all the correct drivers installed, I even tried it on a virtual XP machine in case it was a W7 X64 issue.......Any ideas?

I have HBOOT 0.92 and it worked using the Linux version of Unrevoked 3.21. I'm pretty sure that HBOOT 0.93 is unrootable atm.

Nope, I'm on HBOOT 0.93 and rooted first time...2.10.405.2 is HBOOT 0.93 and it's tested to work on that before release

I stand corrected, thanks for that.
