Chinese t328w RUU update - HTC Desire V

Hi All,
I have a chinese t328w. Can I update the phone using an RUU from a different region?
If so where can get an up to date RUU from?
When using the RUU do I need to unlock the phone?
If I use the european RUU will the phone OTA update? (live in UK)
If I use the latest RUU does it stop me installing custom roms?
Thanks in advance

info
I've been looking around and found this site
http://filesdownload.net/showthread.php?63-HTC-One-V-(RUU_PRIMOU)
that has various RUU's for the phone, could I use the
RUU_PRIMO_U_ICS_40A_H3G_UK_2.09.771.1_Radio_20.72. 30.0833U_3831.17.00.18_M_release_262651_signed.exe
on my phone? or would I end up bricking it or not work?
Or would I be best to use
RUU_PRIMO_DS_ICS_40A_HTCCN_CHS_CU_1.35.1402.1_Radi o_1.04.34D.11_20.11.30.11U_release_256137_signed.e xe
which I hope would then let me OTA to the latest version and then could I install a custom Rom to get back goggle etc stuff?

Need RUU for 1.74.1402.3 chinese version
I need a RUU for this version of stock rom with radio 1.10, because I've update my phone via OTA, and that changed my radio and hboot. Now my old RUU for 1.71.1402.4 and radio 1.08 is useless for returning to stock. Also I wasn't carefull and I deleted wrongly my nandroid backup
So, if someone have or find a RUU for last chinese update please tell me where I can get it.
Or if someone have a CWM backup with this stock version I'll take that too.

download GAPPs.
please google it to get one for your device.
i am using the same device and honestly can't upload such file now.
good luck!

I used the goldcard to upgrade to 3.31.751.1
Now i want to get root and flash the recovery.
i put the heroimg.zip into card,and use hboot to downgrade,it's said Main Version Is Older.

i've done the same...
and i've seen everywhere that no one should upgrade to 2.1 because it won't be able to root...
help...
you cant, thats why everyone says not to upgrade to 2.1
damn it...that was freakin stupid...i've read it and afterwards i completely forgot...
i've done it because since i'm in portugal, and the european gsm version didn't come out yet i've flashed with the taiwan version. since it's the bootlader issue that is preventing me from downgrading, i think i will still be able to install de gsm 2.1 european version correct? the bootloader is the same for sure right?
tks for the reply
hey, i've found this in other forum, can it be used for our gsm hero with official 2.1?

Root on 2.1 Official ROM

Hi guys, I'm new to this world, to custom ROM'S and such.
I have waited for the Official ROM from HTC, but I'm rly disappointing whit the Official ROM, but now I have seen some topic saying that after installing this one, it's impossible to downgrade it and put a custom ROM. But I have seen some replays around the forum saying that is possible.
Oki, saying this, I have been searching the forum since then, about a good tutorial for this, so i can put a custom ROM on the Hero, but I cant find any, so i, making this post so that the experts can help me out
P.S. I know about the warning's and such, but nothing is impossible, it just can take some time do to it.
Thanks for the help guys
As far as i know, official 2.1 = locked phone.
Might change sometime but not yet.
Rooted mine, far preferable
Try this, about the best one i found
androidforums.com/all-things-root-hero/54802-how-root-install-custom-rom-backup-more.html
Sorry, no linky, forum says i'm not old enough. Or was it too few posts
Wrong, you can downgrade it. Just run the RUU update file and it will downgrade (goldcard method).
2.1 is also now rooted with the same method for root as 1.5/1.6/2.0.

???????????
where did you see this info? have you done it yourself?
I've tried to do it, with goldcard method and it didn't work.
Reply to confirm what you have stated please.
tks
I don't know or ever used the goldcard method but I can assure I did update my Hero via OTA (both of the updates) and I was able to go back to a different ROM. Simply use Amon-RA's recovery image and you can flash anything you want.
You must know something though, my Hero came with version 1.76 (back in the day) and I never installed an official update through RUU's (thus blocking the phone by installing newer SPLs). And I'm also using the unlocked SPL for the Hero posted by Paul @ MoDaCo.
The RUUs normally install a new SPL (locked probably) but as you are all aware, the 2.1 update is only available via OTA (for now at least) and doesn't install a new SPL, so there's no problem there, assuming you are using an unlocked SPL or an older one. If a new RUU is made available for 2.1, it will probably com with a new SPL, or not, who knows...

That is incorrect, I did my update through an RUU (Chungwa) and therefore I'm stuck with it.

It depends...according to Nazgulled, if you did a FOTA upgrade you should be able to downgrade. If like me, you did it through RUU...you're screwed for now...
I'm assuming i'm not going to be able to since my phone came stock with 2.1 lol, oh well. Hadn't planned on rooting right away anyway. Not actually too sure what rooting would do for me...

[Q] Question about regional CID, plz help

I have sensation XE which is locked to India CID: htc__38
and I wanna have an arabic rom, which i couldnt find any proper RUU for it
coz I like orginal roms
so what im trying to do is to get the official arabic one through htc update
"i want my device to be recognized as original arabic one so it can get the update"
can anybody tell me if i s-off my device, install CWR, then change the CID to the arabic CID which is HTC__J15
does anything happen to my existing rom which is "htc__38", i mean will it stay functioning?
would the mobile boot after I reboot it?
and will i have the official arabic update if i checked for them through the settings??
"there is already an OTA for devices coming originally with this CID"
and what will happen to the S-off and CWR if any official rom where installed?
thanks a lot in advance
any help is appreciated

[Q] I badly need help - Please give thread a read - HBOOT, S-OFF question

Hi guys
Sorry if this has been already answered. I tried to search for solution many times and asked in threads of ROM but people give very vague answer. I don't want to risk losing my device and want to stick with easy rooting.
I followed this guide to root my phone: http://androidforums.com/evo-3d-all-things-root/494212-complete-newbies-guide-rooting-flashing-evo-3d-roms-kernels-using-fastboot.html. I installed everything but didn't do S-OFF. One thing I'd like to share is that I did unlocking through HTCdev and also that I run Rogers phone. Currently I'm using kingcobra 2.4 ROM.
So now I wanted to install ICS but I need to install new firmware. I tried to revert back to stock ROM and do ICS update but it'd stop at HTC screen and same thing happened when I tried to install ICS rom.
So I need to install this new firmware for sure, but I have S-ON I think. Now things I need to know and perform I believe are:
S-Off
Install new firmware
-------
Now do I have to do RUU update as well? If so, where do I do that and how do I know what RUU I am running? Also I'm running HBOOT 1.49.0008 because I did unlocking through HTCdev
-------
If I wanted to simply use the Rogers ICS update, how can I get it? Do I still need to S-Off? I did full back up. Please explain very clearly.
you want to go back to stock so you can install the OTA / official ICS rom?
You can dl the RUU from the htc website. Rename it to PC86IMG.zip and let it install in bootloader
Whats the link for it please? I am on Rogers evo 3d
Also I think i have the base RUU?
The only rom I installed had this:
"
Base: Rogers RUU 1.20.631.2 HTC EVO 3D (Shooter U GSM)
Android Version: 2.3.4
HTC Sense: 3.0
Kernel: Your choice:
"
I chose original kernel, meaning not installing any. I don't think I need stock ruu now do I?
If someone can find me an easy S-off tutorial, I would be more happy to do that and stick with rooting.
I have spent too much time trying to find a way to update to ICS and I am regretting to root my phone now =[ I can't get ICS either way...
go to htcdev, enter your info and they'll let you dl the ruu for your phone.
i used s-off wire trick , try that for hboot 1.5

[Q] HTC One X+ downgrade

Dear all,
I have a HTC One X+ which has been updated to 4.2.2 via OTA and got software 2.18.707.5. After that, I have unlocked bootloader, rooted, got recovery and flashed cook roms with a nandroid backup. Since I would like to get back to stock ROM but I have tried many RUU with 1.17 but it's failed certainly. I wonder whether I could downgrade my HOX+ or not to flash a RUU with 1.17. I have tried google it out but cannot find an answer. If anyone know how to downgrade a HOX+ from 4.2.2 to 4.1, please guide me. My HOX+ has s-off already. Many thanks!
Please help me!!!!
Is there any help?
