You cannot downgrade your bootloader. I think you're stuck until someone finds a way to root the new HBOOT.
I just want to go back to the stock android 2.1 , then update it to 2.2 ofiicially without rooting
The 'custom ROM' you flashed is actually official FroYo. There would be no difference even if you downgraded and got official FroYo. (Its not possible yet as stated above anyway, but, just letting you know)

Hey guys!
I received and installed the new Android 2.2 update over OTA. But I lost my root access. I tried rooting with Unrevoked: no success. So I'm asking if anyone knows how could I root my wildfire now.
Please help
Reading really seems to be a problem around here.

You can't root the OTA, htc updated the hboot, so wait until unrevoked release an updated version.
I think you'll have to downgrade to an older RUU and root to flash a custom froyo, but I think the new hboot prevents this.
Leaves me wondering why you guys waited for official froyo and then decide to root lol.

For example, I waited for the official FroYo for stability. I had my phone rooted, and I had installed RUU sometimes too (1.37 or 2.10 cn), and then Unrevoked, because they can be rooted. So I didn't think that now, I couldn't root the official froyo, so I tried it as I had already tried RUU's and succesfully rooted.
Some people is saying that there were a lot of adverts/advices saying not to install RUU's or OTA's because then they can't be rooted. But I'm relatively new on this so I didn't even see those posts. There are a lot and I didn't read all of them, so I didn't know.
When I saw official FroYo was out I decided to install it to then flash Jacob's kernel and being root. Before that, I had finally went back to stock 2.1, rooted and OC, because custom roms are often unstable.
Now, I'm waiting resigned to be able to root it and forget this nightmare of being enclosed in this ROM.
EDIT: And yes, the new hboot prevents downgrading...
Do you get now the reasons?
hey guys

You should use the FRG33 passimg as per Wiki, then upgrade to FRG83D.
Also, wrong section.
my hboot is 35

ok as u said i need to use FRG33 ( FRG33 is upgraded version than FRF91 ?)
Just grab the image from here: http://developer.htc.com/
Have you tried the last update (FRG83D)?
Although if you want the FRF85D, first flash the FRF50 update (http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?url=paul/nexusone/update-nexusone-FRF50-signed.zip) and then upgrade to FRF83 with oficial recovery (http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?url=paul/nexusone/Update-Passion-FRF83-From-FRF50.zip) and finally upgrade to 85D (http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?url=paul/nexusone/Update-Passion-FRF85B-From-FRF83.zip)

Korean N1 was released with 2.2(FRF91) from the start, IIRC. So I don't know if downgrade is possible. (And, you can still root your device via rageagainstthecage exploit after upgrading it to 2.2.1(FGR83))
can i able to install custome rom after update to fgr83 as u say

All,
I unlocked the bootloader (I see the unlocked padlock at the bottom of the screen at boot) some time ago on my N1. Now that the official 2.3.3 update is out, I thought I would give it a try.
I keep getting 'signature verification failures' when I tried to install either the official or other versions of 2.3.3
So, I learned it was likely because my HBOOT needed to updated. I downloaded an tried to install the new version (0.35.0017?) and it sorta acts like it is going to update it, reboots a couple of times, but doesn't seem to work.
Could someone please give me some guidance on exactly what I need to do from here to get the 2.3.3. update applied?
Thanks in advance,
-Rob
You most probably have custom recovery, and your problem isn't bootloader at all.
Flash the stock version packaged for custom recovery, found in Development section.
I've recently gotten a Unlocked Bell (but Unrooted!) IS with Froyo on it.
I check the system software update and the gingerbread update is available for download and whatnot.
I download it and click to install but it stops after a restart on the bootloader screen where I see the install package cannot open. (You know the screen with the blue android and exclamation mark)
Is it REQUIRED that I need to root the IS to update the phone to 2.3?
I'm under Telus btw.

Since your IncS is carrier unlocked, you are trying to load a Bell GB update on the phone and I bet it is checking to see if the phone has a Bell CID (which it doesn't since you have unlocked it).
You would be better off running AlphaRevX Revolutionary to S-OFF and install ClockworkMod recovery. After that process you would then be able to install a rooted version of the IncS WWE Gingerbread ROM and lose all of the Bell bloatware.
I'm just very unsure about rooting IS 'cause it says its still in the beta stages so, I'm trying to optimize my phone as much as it's able before considering rooting (which I'm sure everyone is trying to).
Also not sure if anything will go wrong and such 'cause it's in beta
Had the Desire before and everything was sure 100% hence.
Sure That's the ideal way to go for the upgrade...from 2.3.3.
can u teach me how?

Right now there is no official 2.3.5/Sense 3.0 upgrade for the IncS, so currently your only option is to S-OFF (or HTC Unlock depending on your HBOOT version) and install a custom recovery and then flash a custom 2.3.5 ROM.
It has been reported that an official IncS 2.3.5/Sense 3.0 update should be released on Dec 10, 2011, but only time will tell if those reports are true or not.
UPDATE: Football has uploaded the official IncS 2.3.5/Sense 3.0 RUU to the Development section!!!!!!!!
sense 3.0 ruu in football's thread..congrats
2.3.5/Sense 3.0 just received new update from HTC, but now i have problem, im download and phone ask me to install now, so after that phone is restarted and i dont have normal update screen i have some warning screen and that is all, i cant install this update but dont know what is problem, i have Revolutionary installed ...

i have no experience in the matter, but from what i've learned from reading other posts in the forum over the last few weeks...
if you used revolutionary to s-off, you can't update to the official ruu without reverting back to s-on. there are numerous guides in the forum for that so just do a search.
if you upgrade to the official ruu, however, your bootloader will be upgraded to 2.0 as well (someone reported this after upgrading to the official ruu) and i don't know if you will be able to downgrade. so, if you are looking to upgrade, please know that there's a possibility that you won't be able to s-off your phone (at least until someone figures out a way to downgrade from 2.0 bootloader).
my phone is s-off and rooted.
Recieved the OTA update yesterday and after i installed, on rebooting it wouldnt go past the HTC white screen. Stuck/bricked! i then realized that i couldnt load the clockworkmod recovery anymore, got an error cannot open e:\.....
hustled for hours trying to factory reset and finally had to install fastboot on my computer so that i could load the clockworkmod recovery image directly to my phone. after loading clockworkmod recovery then i could now use my previous backup and got back my phone working.... phew.
Hope this helps someone out there.
