Ok, i'm no good at this, but i've only just thought about rooting my Hero GSM and i would love help.
Basicly i want to be able to flash the 2.1 onto my Hero, but obviously i need root first, i'm on the 2.73 build (i updated in the last few days)

Hi all,
I was wondering for a while now, I followed the Unlckr guide on how to root my HTC Hero, but I didn't really get when the rooting stopped and the cooked ROM began.
So, breaking it down: -
What is the Cyanogen Recovery Image for? Is that just so we can enable the custom ROMs?
Putting in the new ROM, does that then mean my phone is then rooted? If I put in another Stock ROM (as I still haven't found a Donut update for Hero anywhere yet), will it be unrooted again?
What does Rooted mean anyway?
Many thanks if you can answer any or all these questions, I'm eager to know what I actually did
Take it no one knows or cares to clarify?
You might have better luck if you post this in the Q&A section. However, I reckon you'll find the answers you're looking for if you use the search.
sup people i seen my friend with a upgraded g1 with 2.2 verson on it can anybdy tell me how to do this
Here.
Kidding aside, follow the CM wiki. It is very throughout, but you don't need to install danger if you don't want to. Then install this rom. Ask back here if you're lost or need help.
I HAVE LOOKED EVERYWHERE.
Please help.
Can one root HTC Wildfire that has froyo on it?
I bought mine with 2.1 but when the update for 2.2 was out, i updated it.
I tried doin the unrevoked root but obviously it didn't work.
HOW DO I ROOT 2.2 (FROYO) ????
Sorry I am not really good at all this, so please do help, really would appreciate it.
Rather than making a thread, if you had just read around this forum a bit (Properly, I dont know how you looked and didnt find the answer), you would have come to know that 2.2.1 OTA is NOT rootable by any software method.
The only way to root is to get it S-OFF using an XTC Clip, Downgrading and then rooting (Else directly installing Clockworkmod on S-OFF'ed bootloader)
Sorry to disappoint you, but, you should have waited a bit instead of acting trigger happy when you received the OTA, if you had any intentions of rooting.
I'm not totally new to rooting as I have already rooted my HTC Desire.
Yesterday my daughter came to me and asked me if I could root her HTC Legend.
I'm finding this quite confusing this time around and I am unsure what guides I should be following.
The wanted end result would be a rooted HTC Legend with S-Off after that installing a custom ROM should be the same as it is on the desire so I'm fine.
her phone has HBOOT 1.0 and android 2.2 currently
Can someone please point me in the right direction for my wanted end result.
Thanks in advance
Root is possible but s off isn't with hboot 1.01 or 1 being unable to revert it to s off XD
However you can use fake flash and still be able to do the same things
Look in the legend android development thread in the sticky with references there is a guide for rooting with hboot 1.01
Mines rooted with hboot message me if you need help XD
Sent from my HTC Legend
so I use the 1.01 guide to root 1.0 ok got that.
s-off was not a really big deal I just thought it would be handy
