[Q] Flashing 2.00.0002 hboot over Revolutionary

---

Hi guys

I have a Desire that I bought with an operator pack, so it is a branded phone, and I used Revolutionary to have s-off.
Then I got an xtc-clip, and made Radio s-off with XTC plus.

Now I want to flash the latest HBOOT that came with Sense 3 OTA update.
But my phone is branded, and I saw that flashing stock hboot via dd command on a branded phone is not good.

As I used to have a Desire, which i bricked by flashing a corrupted hboot, I don't want to brick my DS too.

Don't bother flashing new hboot, it offers you no advantage, look instead for ENG hboot see link in index thread
[MISC] ENG HBOOT 0.98.2000
Swyped from my Desire S using XDA Premium

Yeah, but the problem is the same. Can i flash this eng hboot even on a branded phone ?

The new hboot has also a new partition table.

I found a way to overwrite Revolutionary HBOOT with ENG HBOOT

That hboot was made to overwrite AlphaRevX one, but that's the same mechanism, so that works.
