Hi all,
Can anyone try to install HTC Sense on T-Mobile G2, is it possible?
Pls tell me how can and how I get HTC Sense for G2.
Thanks
Look for a custom ROM with Sense built into it on the dev forum.
Root your G2 with the rooting procedure back in the Development Forum for the Vision/G2.

I had to turned S-off when i did mine... I think I had to in order to get rom manager to back up the stock rom. I didn't have any prob though.

Well i've been waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting.... for telus to release the official 2.1 but it seems that that's never going to happen so now I want to root my hero. Since i'm new to rooting my question is which ROM would you guys recommend, I want the one that's the same as the Sense UI 2.1 that would be on the hero if telus wasn't retarded. There are so many ROMs I can't figure out which one is which so if you guys could help it would be appreciated
You can upgrade the Telus Hero to 2.1 without rooting. I did mine the other day.
It will be the unbranded WWE 2.1 ROM

I have not seen this anywhere, do you have a link and just to clarify I have the TELUS hero does it work on this phone.
Once you've installed a recovery rom you can try all the rom's you want. You can switch between then in about 5 minutes or so, so its really easy to try out lots. My guide will allow you to gain root access and install a custom recovery. See my sig for a link.
Kk, Ive been looking more and I think that VillainRom 12 is the best for me anyway

Hi everyone.
I have a two questions about the XTC clip that I can't find an answer to using search.
When I purchased the phone it came with the unrootable hboot and Android 2.2.1.
I have sourced a HTC clip and will be unlocking my Wildfire today. Once unlocked will I need to flash an older version of hboot - to then allow me to install a custom rom? or can I just install a custom rom as soon as it's done?
My second question is has anyone actually done this and can confirm it works?
Thanks!
xtc clip -> s-off ->
downgrade phone with ruu rom -> hboot 0.8 ->
unrEVOked for root ->
costum rom.
The phone is now set to s off!
Know where I can get the Rom to downgrade?
Thanks!

Dude it is a HARDWARE BOX!
aman_idrish
you really need to stop what youre doing. If you already could read, you would already know that you cant download xtc clip. Its an item you BUY on http://www.xtcclip.com and not a piece of software.
And NO it does not help asking the same questions 10 times, and then starting making private messages to people asking the same questions.
Now, start to grow up, use the search buttom and search for help, like the most of us. If you cant do that then I'm not sure you should ever bought a phone like android where you can make so many changes.
If you ever get it rooted, what can we then experience from you ? Questions about how you repair it from the disasters you have applied it ?
So start searching...... the answers are there including those you ask all the time. They have been answered.
@3xeno
can you tell me where i can download a softice, i'm really in the mood for one, but i cant find anything about it even though i've searched the forum ???? pls
p.s. it's not really hardware, its soft-ice

Cheers mate, Will get one installed now!
glad to hear you're getting a phone thats rooted again
Actually,
I have absolutely no idea which one I need to install! I assume it will be one below 2.2 from the UK but that's where I get lost!
Help is appreciated
Thanks for the input so far!
I think this will take you back to the first official rom of wildfire

Thanks,
Downloading it at the moment - Thanks very much for the help. So I'm right in thinking this will downgrade my current hboot to a previous version - which will then let me install Cyanogen and other custom roms?
This is my first HTC phone so I have never actually rooted one before!
Hope this works.

No need of downgrade or Unrevoked if already S-OFF
Sorry to "disappoint" you guys but there is no need to downgrade & Unrevoked at all, if the smart is set to S-OFF.
Explanation is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12188132&postcount=15
NOTE: The method is successfully tested on several smarts.
If you want to suck the MAX of Wildfire try CyanogenMod 7 RC2 (need to reflash the radio to fix GPS), or better wait a while for stable release - coming soon.

all the rom's you find under "legend development" are made for htc legend so will work on your legend
what is your real question here?
-how to flash a official ruu? or how to flash a rooted one from this forum?

to flash an official ruu; you create a goldcard (you can google for tutorial) and download an ruu (i prefer shipped roms, google that)

Thank you Hitmax117. really really I appreciate you.
just I want to be sure .
it means which ever ruu rom is here for htc legend, with this method i can flash it on device.
1- Its not related to it, the legend is lcd or led?
2- its not related to it, its rooted or not rooted?
again thanks.

official ruu's can be found here, i recomend you download a WWE (WorldWideEdition)
lcd,led, rooted or not rooted doesnt matter because you're installing an Official ROM by HTC
Remember this, if you install an ruu your hboot (some kind of bios) will be updated to 1.01 probably, which means you can't s-off your phone
To be sure you know this, RUU and Rom's that you find here are totally different
Make sure you make the right decision
If you still have questions feel free to ask
what about this method.
can I use this method?

Hi every one I just came by with this website unlockroot.com they have a software that can unlock & root your device. They support HTC Glacier 2.3 but Not MT4g is it any good.

The HTC Glacier is the MyTouch4G.

It might Root the phone, but it i will not turn s-off.
from their web-site
4. Q: Does rooting do any of the following? 1. Wipe the data? 2. Unlock the bootloader? 3. Change the recovery ?
A: You have to unlock the bootloader before rooting. It won't wipe the data or change the recovery.

6. Q: Is rooting confirmed on HTC? I got the latest HTC update and it's 2.3.3, not 2.3.7, and rooting is unsuccessful. Will I need custom rom?
A: Make sure your HTC is in S-off state. If rooting fails in S-off state, it's caused by different firmware Version.

Another reason why this person needs to refrain from rooting their device. It's very clear to me that either this person has 1) done absolutely no research prior to wanting to root their device. They'd know that rooting alone will not do what they want it to do 2) it's a spammer promoting their site 3) afraid of ADB and doing it the proper way.
When I posted that web site all, I was trying to help the People who has trouble downgrading through ADB by turn S-Off with adb then root your phone

Your first post was posted as a question. It wasn't posted as information to the newbs. It was also posted in the Q&A section, as a question.
Please don't lie to us.
This is a noob question but i just rooted my phone yesterday and have been trying out different roms.
I am going to upgrade to the galaxy sIII soon but when i go into the sprint store to turn in my phone it needs to be unrooted and everything.
I dont know how to unroot it or put it back to normal so they could never tell that i had done anything with the phone i forgot to backup the phone.
Could anyone help me out? Sorry that i sound like such a noob.

HBOOT 2.8 With S-OFF but it still say's i have S-ON
i just put Smelkus Amon Ra-Supersonic-4.3 recovery on it.
it's not letting me post the link because i am a new user and cant post links until i make over 10 post.
But its HTCEVOHACKS Guide for people that need to root HBOOT-2.18.0001
Probably the easiest thing to do is follow the instructions on how to downgrade your Hboot and just leave it at that. You'll lose root and have s-on, and you'll also get rid of the watermark in the bootloader screen that indicates that it's unlocked. Follow the steps in this guide to downgrade your Hboot:

What is the difference between S-ON and S-OFF?
Also where can i get the default rom for my phone for when i turn it back in to upgrade.
Or when i unroot my phone and downgrade my hboot will it set it all back to normal?
and thank you for the help i appreciate it.

Essentially, s-on is "security on", and vice-versa. Having s-off allows you the ability to flash things like radios to your phone. As far as the stock ROM, there are links to two different stock Sprint ROM's (sometimes also referred to as RUU or ROM Upgrade Utilities) in that thread I linked you to. Just pick one. Since you won't be rooting it again it won't matter, and a Sprint rep won't know that the ROM on your phone isn't the one it came with to begin with.

Along the lines of the original issue, will Sprint activate a rooted phone or do they actively check to see if it's rooted before activating? Just curious b/c I have an extra one I'm selling and it's still rooted.
Yes i have another question too, if i unroot my phone is it perminitly unrooted? Or would i be able to re root it.
Just helpfull for the future if i decide to root whatever phone i upgrade too.

No it's not permanent. You can root again after unrooting. A lot of people will unroot to take their phone in for service or warranty claims and then root it again after it's fixed.

Nope, not permanent at all. You could do it every morning when you woke up, if you wanted to.
