There are many tutorials online for mt3g.
Two of the best are Unlockr or Cyanogen's.

You may have to use the gold card method like I did, that's all included in the Unlockr tutorial.
Thanks to the Unlockr.com and the cyanogen team, great work guys.
I googled the Androot deal and found a QR code and using my barcode scanner and installed it that way. My phone is a mytouch 3g like yours so don't be confused that it says magic down there because I am using the CyanogenMod 6.1.0 rom from Rom Manager.

there are two tools to s-off once you root, one for radio s-off and one for eng s-off, run the radio one, then the eng one, you will find them in the android development section. you need to s-off before you can flash clockwork mod on the DHD, you can flash that from rom manager
Cool so i need to do that bit more to it on dhd unrevoked rooted and put clockwrk on lol thanks do the roms available make it worth rooting

Got this phone from a friend and according to the software version it's running Gingerbread, on boot it's telling me it's Swift Droid, Cyanogen mod 7..
I'm very new to all this so I have no clue what this means but the touch screen is off calibration and I can't find the option to recalibrate it..

Haha! Well, it might help if there was actually a question in your first post
But in presuming you're looking to root it, check the Development topics, lots of ROM's to choose from, guides in there to follow on step by step instructions on how to do it.
I would suggest reading through those first before asking questions though as many people ask the same questions

yep it will, before you flash a custom rom though, you need to check out the 2 s-off tools in the developent section (Radio & ENG) after you root, run both of thoes tools from your pc, you can then use rom manager to install clockworkmod recovery, then your free to install all the custom roms you want
After you install Clockwork, don't forget to take a backup of your T-Mobile ROM just in case anything happens you can flash it back to stock.
Yeah cool guys so
1. Root with visionary.
2.Permroot
3. S.off ENG
4. Install rom manager and install clockwork.
5. Flash rom?

You should get radio s-off as well as eng s-off ng
Sent from my Desire HD pocket rocket.
Then you can go on dev boards and learn about radios and things like that, but that is the stuff that can brick you're phone as my friend recently found out with his desire HD, but if you follow instructions and don't unplug half way through :L you should be fine!
I no about radios and roms im a desire user just needed help sorting my bros dhd for him

Hi all
I have a friend who has this phone and it is vodafone branded and would like to make his phone better by rooting and flashing a good rom. Do you have any guides I can follow and suggestions to any good roms? What is the best speed to overclock the processor?
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
1st step is rooting what version is he using 2.1 or 1.6? I think z4root should work
"2.1" would I be able to gain root by using visionary since its on 2.1?
