Hey,

Baseband Version - 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2
Kernal Version - 2.6.29-c8d11160 htc-kernal@and18-2 #1
Build Number - 1.20.207.3 CL171460 release-keys
Software Number - 1.20.207.3
Browser Version - Webkit 3.1
Boot Loader - 0.80


Earlier on today, I ran

You cannot install that update on your phone. It's designed for phones running 1.21.405.2.

Rooting your phone does not debrand it.

I've also tried these:

LithiumMod1.0.12-Alternate_Dark.zip
DeFroST_2.7.zip

So am I missing a step or just not finding the right ROMs?

Thanks

It depends on what you want to do. If you want to run an unbranded but official ROM then you need a goldcard, not to root.

I was just looking to upgrade to Froyo, what's the best way to do this?
