I have a t-mobile hero and would like to root it. I found a guide on android forums.com that uses orange firmware. I cant get an answer on if this is safe to use with a T-Mobile phone.
Can anyone either answer this question or point me towards a guide on how to root?
Thanks

Don't spam for answers please.
An RUU is not avaliable for Vodafone Branded Magic's. All updates are from Google and then sent to vodafone to be delivered over the air (OTA), HTC plays no part in creating updates for these devices.
If your search around I'm sure you will be able find Android 1.6 for your Vodafone Magic.

you just dont get it do you. quit posting garbage to the board - this thread needs to be locked MODS Please lock/trash this thread.
IAIO what you need to do is get the t-mobile Mytouch NBH and make a gold card - then you wont have the mainversion error - but dont ask how to make a gold card - SEARCH and READ and LEARN and quit spamming
I know the phone is not rooted yet and people are currently working on this & also Di Vinci are working on a package
However, does anyone know how to debrand the phone without rooting the phone?
I have read about the seus blob fs method on a few forums? Has anyone else tryed this? Is this just a case of replacing a few files on SEUS?
Thanks
Just debranded my handset
You gonna tell how??

Hi! C987
Which files you has replaced in blob_fs?

Its all of them. However, its not 100% straight forward.
Ill upload a guide and files shortly.
Did this solve the problem of vodafone handsets not being able to connect to SE sync and are you now running the updated version? i'. still on 1.4
follow this link for debranding...
http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=195467
Have you tried this yourself and if so, does it actually work?
Also I'd be grateful if someone could explain to me the benefits of de-branding my handset.

yess no one answered my question so i did the update myself, it worked on my dutch x10i and now i got the R1FA016 build instead of the 014 build. and i can confirm simlock will not be removed by debranding (expected this kinda but you never knew )
so i'm coming back to Android from HD2 Win Mob.
I have a trade on offer, for an x10 on orange and i am with tmob hd2. If this unlock works can anyone tell me can i use it on tmobile? if not who do i goto or pay to enable me to use this x10 on tmob?
Any info will be a help except, NO you cannot use it on tmobile.
Thanks..

Is 32A get the Vodafone update now?
NO!
All Vodafone devices are 32B devices.
Also, NO.
Romanian Vodafone Magics are 32A.
