Hi.

Lots of people seem to be having issues when trying to downgrade their Wildfire from a carrier-branded version (HBOOT 1.01.0002) to unbranded WWE (HBOOT 1.01.0001).

I made a small package to help you do this.

http://www.mediafire.com/?adny69lbvzbs1yg

Extract this package somewhere you can find it, like C:\buzzdowngrade

  • Step 1: run step1.bat from the package. This will downgrade your MISC partition to allow for the RUU downgrade.

    At the end, GoldCardTool will start up, to allow you to create a goldcard which you will need before starting Step 2.

    After you've made the goldcard, and inserted it, continue with step 2.

  • Step 2: run step2.bat from the package. This will downgrade your ROM version to HTC WWE Froyo for Wildfire (unbranded).

    If you get a Customer ID error while doing this, your goldcard is not working!
    Create a new goldcard and re-run step2.

Format your SD card, generate a goldcard image online (sorry, can't remember right now, should be floating around the forum), use DD to "flash" it to the raw SD card device (/dev/sde or something like this, do "sudo fdisk -l" to find out exactly). MAKE SURE YOU USE THE RIGHT DEVICE. If not, you can easily overwrite the bootloader and/or partition table. Both are annoying, but fixable as long as you have some kind of Live CD around.

Since the RUU is Windows-only, get the script called OpenRUU. It should be around this forum. Follow the instructions to extract rom.zip out of the RUU and debrand.

    Well I must be missing something as I cannot get root!

    I thought S-off was essentially completley different to root!

    What do I need to do to get to HBoot .01.0001 from .002 ??

    It never used to be so much hasstle with the older HTC's

    Think I may go back to my HD2. Big n Bulky but reliable and easy to flash..
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    Now as you said that yr device is S-OFF. follow the steps in given link and then u will be rooted, after that u can flash any custom rom
