Root 【2.03.405.3】 ？？？？

Hi there,I'm chinese,yesterday I got a RUU base on 2.03.405.3（LEGEIMG_Legend_HTC_WWE_2.03.405.3_Radio_47.39.35.09_7.08.35.21_release_130330_signed.zip）in my legend. now,I connot root...SOS~

So far, it is not possible to root a ROM above 1.31.xxx.

i've got the 2.03.405.3 version running, rooted...
[ROM] UPDATED Almost Stock Legend HTC WWE 2.03.405.3 Radio 7. 08.35.21
isn't that the version he wants ?
that version is rooted...

Yes, sure! But once used the RUU with 2.xx it is not possible to flash another ROM. So he also cannot flash the rooted 2.03.xxx. I am in the same situation - I am also waiting for the possibility to root my 2.xx ROM.

Yes you can go here http://67.228.111.202/shipped/Buzz/ and select the RUU rom you wish to go back to. download and save to ur pc then run the RUU with ur phone connected to the pc via the usb cable.
!!!NOTE IF YOU FLASH AN OFFICIAL FROYO ROM YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GET ROOT!!!

Thanx a lot,
but there are many ruu version here and no one is like mine...
is it a problem?
if i do a nandroid, can i restore mine stock rom version after flash a cooked rom?
Thanx again

Which one is yours? You can flash a WWE RUU if you cant find yours in the list.
BTW, It is recommended to take a 1.XX RUU from that site, because 2.XX RUU's are Froyo RUU's, and, you will not be able to root them if you require it in the future (As of now).
As for a Nandroid Restore, if you had taken a Nandroid backup of the Stock ROM after Root, yes, you can restore it back and get back your Stock ROM from a Custom ROM. If not, then flashing the RUU is the only way.

i've not flashed again my buzz but i want to do it and so i've not unrooted it.
i've the stock rom upgraded to 2.22.405.1, so i ask to me if i do a nandroid now before flash another rom, then i can do a restore of it... sorry but firt of all i'm italian an i don't speak a read english very well...
thanx for your patience

Yes, you can restore your phone to the state it was right before you did the nandroid back-up.
Make sure you have enough space on your SD card before doing the back-up, say 500MB or more. And save that back-up to your PC for safe-keeping, it's in the "Clockworkmod" Folder on your SD card.

If your stock ROM (that you are restoring) is a version earlier than your custom ROM, do you need a goldcard?
If you are restoring to an earlier stock ROM to the stcok ROM on your phone, do you need a goldcard?

If I understand you correctly, you are having official 2.22.405 at this moment? If so, you will not be able to take a Nandroid Backup, or, install a Custom ROM, or, go back to a previous ROM, because, all of the above requires root, and, the official 2.XX ROM's cant be rooted as yet. You have lost root when you upgraded to 2.22.405.

No to both. Goldcard is just required for debranding purposes. (If you have taken backups of old ROM's)

I have an htc wildfire from vodafone with android 2.1 but I want to change the voda rom and install the htc official rom. I don't want to unlock I only want to change the vodafone rom with these ugly icons and applications and install the htc rom. So how I make this? I need to root? Only installing the official RUU.exe?

No, you will need a Goldcard to debrand your Wildfire. Just search the forums, there are guides on the same.

If you are on official 2.2.1, there is nothing you can do at all, except wait, till a solution arrives.

need custom rom based on Firmware = 2250.21.50001.728

anyone can make one??

Could you please explain the exact reason why?
Not that I can cook such rom but it will provide the cooks info they"ll need.
Maybe there is already your kind of rom if it's only to do for language or such.

because of the recent HTC update
this new firmware may contain bug fixes
i note the custom rom available now are using the older firmware

OK
I suspect it's just a little matter of time when the cooks will implement those bug fixes.
Hopefully for you they will, my HD7 is running fine on the DFT 7720 ROM

nd seems like the botloader 5.0 cant be downgraded....
is there a way i can load a custom ROM without downgrading my Bootloader...

u can only do it if a custom rom baseon the above mentioned firmware is available.
But the problem is it requires the BOOTLOADER 5.0 to be supported under cotulla DFT.
Basically to cut it short , it requires bootloader 5.0 to be jailbroken.

The problem is u can do it
Flash a nodo rom with spl supported under dft.
jailbreak
Flash custom rom
then update to the HTC firmware 5.0 update
But the problem is the custom rom needs to be updatable in zune
most custom rom aren't except for xbmod with a custom cab package .

i tried each and every method. no matter how, i still cant downgrade my SPL below 5.
for your info. you can no longer flash back any other official ROM from 7004 till 7720. none of the custom ROM working as well.
i tried flash only Radio also its still can not. use cab sender also can not. none of the published method works. restore back to 7392 also wont work.

[Q] How to upgrade ROMs for HTC

I am currently running the Bad Boy ROM v1.3. I want to upgrade to their latest ROM but im not sure how to go through the upgrade process. Do I need to do a backup move it to my computer then run a RUU for 4.3 then do the carrier upgrade then reflash recovery and then flash the new ROM? I could not seem to find an answer. Any guidance would be appreciated.

[Q] Firmware update without S-OFF by switching back to StockRom and Update?

Hi everybody.
my HTC one has Viper 5.8 running with S-ON and i like it that way.
I never updated the Firmware since i moved from the 4.2.2 stock rom. (i have nandroid backup of the stock rom)
I am a bit scared doing S-OFF "just" to update firmware, hboot and radio, I know it should be easy to do, but i just don't want to.
So i thought that maybe i can flash back to the stock rom, then make the offical HTC update to 4.3 sense 6 (should also flash newest firmware right?) and then unlock the bootloader again, flash twrp and custom rom again.
Would that work? Is there something i have to pay attention to?
thx for any help!!!!

Since you don't want S-Off, that is your best option. I would follow closely @Mike1986 [GUIDE] Complete Flashing Guide | Rooting | Going Back To Stock it is for those who are S-On.

Thanks, I will follow the guide.
But I have one more question:
Can I do the official HTC update from the htc stock rom while I still have custom recovery and bootloader unlocked?
Can't find any any info if there is any risk involved not changing back first to stock recovery and bootloader relocked before doing the update.
I guess recovery will be overwritten by the official update?!?

You need stock recovery and locked bootloader to take updates

you don't need a locked bootloader to get an official ota update,however,you do need to flash a stock recovery !!.
I went through the ota update method to update my firmware as for some reason my htc one wouldn't s-off and I felt that it wasn't running as it should on custom roms with the old firmware.
I started off with a flashable zip -4.06.1540.2,developer edition then ota updates,always doing a nand backup of rom.
always pull the stock recovery image from the ota before updating...
i'm now running 5.11.1540.9 firmware and all custom roms are running good...
if you google 4.06.1540.2 dev edition flashable zip you should find it,if not,i can upload it too somewhere for you...
an official htc ota update changes your firmware and installs a stock recovery..
its a bit long winded this way,but,it was the only way for me !!

First thank you for sharing your experience.
When you say "zip -4.06.1540.2,developer edition" then you mean the rom, correct?
Why would you pull the stock recovery from the OTA before updating? What would be the consequence of leaving it in?
...
so i would download the odexed stock rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48111304
and afterwards flash the according recovery.img, correct?
i guess it is no problem that my phone (and their for the bootloader) was not a developer edition

yeah,it's a full flashable rom,that can be installed by custom recovery,when I say pull the stock recovery,i mean copy it to a folder on your pc,always best to have the matching recovery for your stock rom.
