does ubrevoked work for rooting DHD because the root method is abit complicated I heard unrevoked roots any 2.2 device which run 2.2 out of the box.

Have a look for visionary+
Not sure if Unrevoked is only for the original Desire but the above will do the job nicely.
Is it an easy root? That's all I want a a few clicks and walla a rooted DHD
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Doesn't come much easier, run the app and hit root! If that's all you want then you're done!
If you want to start flashing custom roms though you will need to s-off your phone though. A little more in depth but still not too bad.
That's the what is s off also I might as well root after the official gingerbread release or should I just root now?
Which would be best.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Depends what you want to do with the DHD ... I forgot to mention also that you will need a custom recovery image if you want to start flashing roms. Again, all pretty straight forward if you follow the instrucitons to the letter.

I suspect that afte rooting you'll not be too bothered about ota updates from your carrier as the stock unbranded rom is likely to get updates sooner and the custom roms will always incorporate the latest releases anyway.
In answer to the question though I'm not sure in all honesty.
thanks for all your help.

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

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

No you cannot flash roms and mods when you are temp rooted as you have to reboot. When you reboot you are no longer temp rooted. Be patient things are sorting themselves out ,a dev is on it people are trying to get him devices so he can achieve full root.
Might as well get use to stock roms... could be a WHILE!! lol no one even has a clue. all we know is a few people are looking into it. with HTC having a stick up there *** and not releasing the GB kernal/rom we are stuck waiting.
no, you need full root
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=936
So I was in g2x forum, and they said you can flash a recovery without root. Then with recovery you can flash a rom.
Don't know if it works like that with our phones though.
Evo SHIFT
You need full root to flash recovery. End of story

Completely different phone. Perm rooting is dependant on the hardware's boot loader security. With the GB update on the shift hboot got updated and changed the security.

As long as the exploit has not been patched by HTC then it will work otherwise you need to dev-unlock and flash insecure boot.img then run HTC Quick Root.

The Incredible 4G is locked up tight. We can't get root via any exploit, and dev unlock was only available for a short time after release, then was removed. Nobody can get s-off, either. I bought mine thinking dev unlock still worked, then found out that it was revoked the very next day. Needless to say we need help rooting.
Thanks for the effort, though. If you have any ideas on the Incredible 4G, please share on the threads over there. We really need help.
Sent from my ADR6410LVW using xda app-developers app
I share your pain Captain. Stuck with the Inc4G myself with no s-off. Got it locked down tight, really missing my shift right about now
Doesn't work for the latest OTA of Evo Shift 4G. =/
There is a chance I might have done something wrong, but I have continuously tried different ways so I highly doubt it.
Hi I'm new to this forum, I know about rooting and such as I did root before on my, now bricked, motorola backflip and my rooted Motorola Atrix 2, but I am buying a mytouch 4g from my friend and it is on 2.3.4 and I've seen on the forum that you can only root on 2.2.1, do I have to use the complicated way in this guide, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178912, to downgrade or is there a faster and easier way?
Nope. Thats the only way unless you wanna use htc-dev which is horrible. It looks more difficult than it actually is.
please read EVERYTHING before attempting this...
this is the guide i used and it worked perfectly :
BOOM
HERE is a youtube video that shows the steps also
(( theres also a GFREE method but that didnt work for me but this method did ))
you'l need to downgrade them temp root then perm root
good luck
here's the perm root when your done w/ that ^up there^
RAWR
also has a youtube guide

in the world of hacking anything ( except the ios... babystuff ) your gonna come across those kinds of guides that have alot of stuff
its scary but once you do it, you realize it wasn't that hard.. just take ur time and read through it , its not as hard as it looks
+ once ( if ) you start flashing roms your gonna be happy that you did this.
oh.. and once this is done, you can flash a rom that will upgrade you from 2.2 (froyo) to at least 4.0 ( ics )
i recommend Virtuous Infinity's latest build or if you want something more iphone-ish ...flash Skytouch 4g
There's no "easy way" in the world of hacking, you can't be lazy when it comes to this...but the method isn't really that hard.

Embedded Micro Memory Controller.
The glacier shipped with two different types. The older model, which was seemingly less prone to failure, was on devices that could be rooted with root.sh. On the later chips, including mine, you had to use gfree, as whatever exploit root.sh used no longer worked.
This is what I've gathered from my time on the boards. Jack_R1 would know for sure.
