Yes. But that method never worked on me. Always got error regarding this USB thingy...

So what I did is as quoted below...

QUOTE(apis_jay @ Mar 9 2011, 01:31 AM)
Use PB99IMG.zip method. My phone was bricked before and I use this method. Actually is quite easy too.

It can be simplified by these steps:
1. Extract ROM.zip from RUU
2. Rename to PB99IMG.zip
3. Copy to SD card.
4. Boot in Bootloader/HBOOT.
*It will scan required zip if is available in SD card.
5. Follow further instruction on the phone.

When is done, your phone will be back to stock ROM.
*
Make sure use RUU mention at first page or RUU_Bravo_Froyo_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.13.707.1_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_143921_signed - for Asia set.

IF you already updated to OFFICIAL HTC GINGERBREAD, I believe the method above and running RUU is not valid (for time being). However, you can check at xda development forum for the latest update..

do you think is a good deal to change desire to nexus s? biggrin.gif

Nexus S got similar spec with Samsung Galaxy S. I don't thinks it is a good deal since SGSII already came out.

I'm using MyBackup *Root*, works like charm. Normally I would restore Call Log, SMSs/MMSs, Contacts and few essential apps like Papago and Better Keyboard.

One thing when restoring Contact, I found out the contacts is not restored unless you log-in thru your Google account first... hmm.gif

i changed my location to perth in the time settings

not sure which Locale settings need to be changed for that, browsed through the settings(1st time install miui)

seeing the comments section looks like they will release a fixed version soon, so waiting for that one

Settings --> System --> Language and input ---> Language and Locale

Btw, I'm using English (Singapore).. Works like charm.

I had a problem with STORAGE.

Got pissed and couldn't fix aside from fresh reinstalling 1 by 1 via APK and there's hundreds of them lol.

Oh well  hmm.gif How does Titanium Backup work anyway?
It keeps them in apk's and re-installs them like new ? (Excl data ofc)
*
From my understanding is Titanium Backup allows backing up APKs and APK data (even in sd-ext/EXT partition) into sdcard/on-line storage (paid version). Other than that, the app is pretty much the same like other back-up app which can backing up SMS/MMS, call logs, contacts and etc...

Btw, I'm not a fan of titanium backup.. I prefer MyBackup *root*...

Once you convert to custom ROM, you won't be bothered about official ROM/update.

For me, I never regret rooting my Desire... Even bricked once my LCD...

My screen went blank when flashing wrong RUU (1.19 something) which is for AMOLED set. sweat.gif

But then, after flashing back to Froyo RUU, the screen went back normal... tongue.gif

I am an Android app developer.

I have a user complaining that his HTC Desire HD was on 2.3.3 and can install, then when upgrade to 2.3.5, the app is gone. The app in question is here:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.measat.astro.epg

The app's filters are:
- must have touchscreen (so Google TV cannot use this app)
- must be able to get Internet connectivity (WiFi tablets can see this app)
- Android 1.5 and above (no maximum version is set)
- small, normal, large and xlarge screens (small = Wildfire; large = 5-7", xlarge = 8.9" and above)
- no phones excluded (you can manually filter phones)
- all countries supported
- copy protection is OFF (it was ON before - meaning you cannot move the app to SD, and cannot install it on a Developer Phone or an Unreleased Phone)

So now I am wondering if these 2.3.5 ROMs floating around are meant for a Developer Phone like the Nexus One or Nexus S. I'm rooted and am on CM 7.1.0 RC1 which is 2.3.4, and I can see the app just fine. So I'm wondering what the heck is it with 2.3.5 - somebody else on CM 7.1.0 RC1 on a HTC Desire says his version is 2.3.5!

Does your Settings - About phone - Model number say HTC Desire, or something else?

Also, there is NOTHING on http://developer.android.com about 2.3.5 - as far as Google is concerned, 2.3.5 doesn't exist. Who made this 2.3.5?

I could upgrade my HTC Desire to a CM nightly on 2.3.5 but there is a risk that I will not be able to see all apps, because of the same mysterious problem!
*
Maybe depends on market version? I'm using 2.3.6 (market version) can still see the Astro app. Btw, I'm using MIUI Au (2.3.5 gingerbread too)

Have he tried cleared cache & data from Market application setting?


About android version, I'm not try to mock/disgrace the developers but those android version can be easily edit in /system/build.prop. (FYI, this is just assumption. I never try to edit nor adjust the build.prop setting)

Isn't this kinda inappropriate to discuss where to get cracked app. ohmy.gif

If still want to look for it, Google had a powerful search engine you know... Use it.

Care to state your custom ROM? (if using one)

If you still on Froyo, I suggest that you upgrade to Gingerbread. Feel much snappier and better signal reception.

hey there, im on cm 7.1 rc1

thinking of upgrade to either miui-au or miui-xj, but leaning more towards xj because of them supporting cm7r2 hboot

may i know what rom you were on before?  And was there problems when backing up/restore apps from your old rom to miui?

also what is the miui-xj variant are you using?  (a2sd or dw or xpart)
*
I'm using latest MIUI Au on CM7r2 hboot without any problem. Even though it is not OFFICIALLY support by the dev. smile.gif

My suggestion is to read and understand everything related to rooting stuffs. That's the main point.

You can disregard this suggestion but in the end you will suffer if something bad happen to the phone.



anyway,

If you still have Froyo (2.2), you still can use unrevok3d method. This the easiest method to root. Plus it will installed Clockworkmod recovery. *This still S-ON*

If you already updated to Gingerbread (2.3), use revolutionary tool. But this only give 'root' and S-OFF. This method you have to push 'recovery' via fastboot after getting S-OFF..

p/s: correct me if I'm wrong.

I found EXT4 recovery is very useful for me because can perfectly align my SD partition include the Ext partition. smile.gif Not to forget the D2EXT partitioning ( I'm not using D2EXT tho)

But my favourite is the RMD recovery by m0narx because it was based on Amon Ra.

AFAIK, when S-OFF, HBOOT version change to 0.93.002. unsure.gif

Check your phone first at Bootloader screen whether already S-OFF or not.. sweat.gif

Second row from top (will show S-ON or S-OFF)
