Please tell me that was a wind up, lol
we need a set method of getting s-off like the g2's s-off, is there anyone out there who has has success?
JD
It wasn't a wind-up. That guy has a Desire Z (he did a very comprehensive tear-down), and he's deep into s-off and hboot etc. So if anyone knows, he does. I believe he's IntuitiveNipple on IRC.
If I were you I would ask this question over on the G2 forums, where there's a lot better chance of finding someone who has done it.

Im not sure that we can use the same method though...
This forum is near on dead of dev's, as soon as the hboot is live for both phones im hoping they will merge the two sections into HTC Vision.

hahaha nicely put.
The reality is there is no hboot readily available for the D-Z users yet. Gotta wait and see what the brains come up with.

Hey All,
(I'm not responsible for any damage that may be caused by flashing this)
I have a great news for all of us. I was stupid enough to test it myslef first
So, here I present You the engineering hboot for our lovely device.
It's ripped from quite old DesireZ dev rom, namely: 1.05.0.0, it laid on my drive for week or so
Here's the proof that phone booted corectly, I suggest You to backup all your data.
Bye,
Pavel

I'm glad it worked ;-) But the compliment should go to guys who allowed Us flash this baby.
In this case, I'm just a delivery boy (Ah Futurama again ;-)).
Little bit OT: I really enjoyed last season, I still can't understand, how they were able to pull off so many jokes about physics ... and it still was soo original plus funny.
Bye,

Hi pavel and brad,

hmm. was wondering this myself.
Hey sry my bad English-speaking i want a video showing me how to root . I have seen the root threat an I don't understand anything I'm bad to English . So please can any one make a video of how to ? Thx xda I love you all
That video would be very long Download Google Chrome, go to the menu in the top right corner and choose Options. Then click the Tab "Under the Bonnet" and scroll down until u find the "Translate" tick. Make sure it is "ticked" (the little square is not empty) and then press OK.
Now every time you enter a site in a different language it will ask you if u want to translate it in your own.
Good luck
I see another bricked phone coming up lol

Actually, rooting is the easiest thing (get visionary R12+).
S-off flashing boot: would be interesting to see what happens when you have google translate the fastboot commands
I have got the (visionary 14 ) but can I put custom Rom without rooting ? or do the 1.5 gh hack with visionary ?

Nope. you have to root. there are at least 5 different how to threads. we'r not gonna make this one as well
I came to android a week ago so I'm new too. Just read carefully and everything. What u dont understand - copy&paste on translate.google.com. It gets easier with time

Follow the detailed description described here. It's pretty simple and straightforward (I'm new to Android with just basic knowedge of Linux and had no problems rooting my phone), but you need to follow it strictly. Also, there is a chance you can brick your phone, so whatever you are doing, you are doing it at your own risk!
You can ask someone that speaks your language to translate it for you and describe the procedure in a PM.
big thank
Thanks man this thread worked for me Thanks many Thanks

Zachary and Candyman, I don't know where you've been reading but there are detailed step by step instructions in the development section. If you are unable to follow them then IMHO you are best staying with stock.

Yup the dev section has loads of tutorials i rooted from there but if you got gb then downgrading to froyo would be best option for root i think.

its better for him to learn so in future he doesnt have to ask the sam e question for a different device and if he does it himself he wont have any problems in flashing roms too
It's best to do it all by yourself. It's actually quite easy if you follow the guide carefully. glhf

follow link above and Downgrade, sucks that you updated, but don't worry you can downgrade to the awesome 2.2.1!
It's quite difficult to brick the phone if you follow the steps exactly. the only time you may brick the phone is when it is during the process of flashing the stock 2.2.1 rom, and you pull the battery or something. So make sure you're battery is charged! and secure.
i understood the downgrade part but im very confused about emmc thing, whats adb?

ah, when you try that command, it has to be tried through adb, and the phone has to be in a custom recovery, like clockworkmod or 4EXT. since you don't have a custom recovery currently installed, it won't work. so try the other command, through terminal emulator.
