[FAQ] Desire HD or Inspire 4G

[mrroks]

hello,

i have purchased a refurb Desire HD,

in Box and the mobile casing sticker shows Desire HD PD9810000 where the HBOOT(SHIP S-OFF) shows PD9812000 , i had AT&T Ruu installed by default when i purchased the phone

my wifi and bluetooth is not working properly , it just hangs the phone (pulling out the battery solves this) and sometimes it connects but automatically turns off and turns on again

i think its because wrong RUU is installed in the phone .. if i run Desire HD RUU it says MODEL ID error where Inspire 4G RUU runs fine.

im so confused pls Help

i want to convert my MODEL ID so that i can install the Desire HD RUU , at the Back it shows HTC where Inspire 4g shows at&t logo

We also need to know if your boot loader is locked. Having a unlocked boot loader will make the ruu.exe not be able to run. To flash an ruu, your bootloader needs to be locked. Then unlock it again after ruu has ran. The beauty of s off is that u can almost flash any ruu for that device. But don't worry, you WON'T lose s off if u run a ruu. That's the beauty of having s off.

Since you are s-off you should be able to just use fastboot command to change your phones MID to match what it says on the box. Perhaps whomever owned the phone before you changed the MID so they could flash the inspire ruu you currently have installed? I haven't owned an inspire in a few years now but I do remember the inspire and desire HD can use each other's firmwares by making minor changes. (they are pretty much same phone, inspire is att branded, and desire HD is for everyone else if I recall correctly) Sorry I couldn't be a bit more specific but as I said it's been a long time since I had an HTC.


Good luck!

He really can't do that neither. Not til we get a FULL posting of his getvar stats. He's not listening

A getvar would help but you make it sound as if it is impossible to fix his issue without it. Why can't he change his Model ID "fastboot oem writemid PD9810000" since he IS s-off may I ask?
@mrroks if you would be kind enough to post your fastboot getvar all output here, please remember to edit out your IMEI and S/N before posting it. No need to share that part.

Thank you for the getvar info. Again sorry but it's been a long time since I've had a DHD. I would say maybe see if @glevitan has a suggestion as he is the resident guru when it comes to this device, he is by far more knowledgeable about it than I am.

I didn't really mean its "impossible" but why mess things up more? Its much safer to run a ruu

This is very close to mine. I have same bootloader version. Which was done by the 3.20 ruu. That's your safest bet.

Having S-OFF you should be able to flash any RUU that are willing. Anyway, having the Inspire 4G firmware should not cause any issue. Have you tried wiping the phone entirely and reflashing a RUU?

Do not try to flash superCID as you don't need that. Desire HD and Inspire 4G are the same exact device with different name.
