Hi,
Is there a way of rooting a wildfire with hboot 1.01.0001?
Downgrate... goldcard... any method!
No

Short Answer is NO , s0rry to be the bearer of bad news , lolz gonna have to wait till someone figures it out , thats why i never flash an RUU or OTA upgrade unless i KNOW what its goin to do
this is soo funny, people wait to get official froyo, then they want to root. instead they could have rooted before and get a custom froyo rom anyway.
And there were many warnings not to update to the OTA or RUU unless a newer method came out.
Bad luck guys

Yeah I,m stuck too on froyo ota update,I bought a wildfire 3 days ago its my own fault,I used to flash my Nokia with cfw all the time I,m new to android I just didn't think I will not make that mistake again if I get to root it.if these hackers or whatever are like the symbian lot,they will wanna do it coz that's what they do,I hope so anyway.

Rooting HTC Wildfire (firmware too new ???)
Hi,
I have the same update
H BOOT-1.01.0001
NOV.17.2010
I manage to install usb driver via Speedy0339
ONLY THAT WAY I MANAGE TO INSTALL H BOOT USB driver!!!
Then I run UNREVOED3
When I run UNREVOED3 process starts:
1. installs unrevoed 3 and reboot phone,
2. Then he starts rooting a.......and then :::::::::::::
3. SEE attached file [Error: Failed to get root. Is your firmware too new? ]
Root with Unrevoked
Unrevoked as we speak are trying to root the new Froyo update for the wildfire.
as the change log says.
v3.31:
Backed ClockworkMod down to 2.x series on EVO 4G; now 2.6.0.1.
Still has new kernel. Still has WiMAX key backup. Now supports amend scripting again.
ROM authors: fix your ROMs! Support will go away again in 3.x.x.x: Koush has a good thread explaining the reason why.
Improved compatibility with Android 2.1 (fixes “am reported error starting service”).
Increased root timing window (fixes “failed to get root” on supported devices).
v3.3:
Fix for latest EVO 4G OTA (3.70.651.1) and EVO 4Gs with new versions of HBOOT (2.02 and 2.10).
Switched exploits for all platforms; hopefully more reliable than rageagainstthecage
Updated ClockworkMod, with plenty of new features:
3.0.0.2 for EVO 4G, which has a new kernel (for better WiMAX safety), and supports WiMAX key backup
2.5.1.2 for Incredible, which supports SLCD
No update for Wildfire yet; sorry. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Only Snow Leopard is supported in the OS X build.
No update for Wildfire yet; sorry
maybe in the next update they seam to update pretty quick its just a waiting game now.

I just recently bought my Wildfire, Never thought of rooting it till i found HBoot by mistake was just messing around i am also on HBoot-1.01.0001 like its said so many times on here root can't be done, i was messing with that z4root app on it and on temp it doesn't error out only on perm it does. So does this mean the temp root works ?
If so is there anyway you could flash with a temp root please bare with me i am a Linux person and the Andriod OS is Linux in a sense but Andriod is new to me and as such this might sound noobish.

As per a forum member of XDA-Developers , he states that HTC Wildfire Which is soon to get its Official 2.2 Froyo Update , Is a good news for some , but will give tough times to others , other uses who wish to Root their Android Device.
In Details warriorvibhu Explains that HTC Wildfire will be provided with a OTA Update with HBoot , a Bootloader which would be harder to crack / modify in order to Root the device.

Downgrade???
Do you think the technical staffs of HTC com can downgrade this ROM to OS 2.1? They invent the upgrade utility software, so do you think they can do downgrade???? I am going to the warranty my device. How do you think so?
I am wondering the same, what would happen when I try to flash the 1.37 RUU back on the phone?
If you have upgraded to the offical Froyo either OTA or from RUU your stuck in a hole.
The update changed the bootloader in the Wildfire meaning it is currently impossible to root (which rules out custum ROMS) and you can't role back to a previous RUU because they are written with the old boot loader.
Thats what the original OP of this thread is about.....the fact that it could be a while before it's going to get re rooted via unrevoked or any other method.
So your just gonna have to wait until rooting is supported again by Unrevoked or some other app, or some clever sod figures out how to change the new Boot loader.
Hope someone figures it out soon :/

Hi guys,
tomorrow my Desire HD finally arrives, i've been doing some research into rooting ect and would like to ask a few questions .....
1) whats the best root method? i take it unreovked dosent work on the HD, ive read visionary works for permroot, i thought visionary was for the G2 not HD is this correct?
2) whats the diffence between, bootloader s-off and radio s-off ..... on the desire we only have bootloader s-off
3) my desire HD will be orange branded, if it comes with a newer software version , with an unrootable hboot, can i downgrade easlly to an older software version?
4) and finally how do you guys find the multi touch on the HD?, the lack of multi touch is one of the main reasons im upgrading.
thanks for you help
I followed the guide in the Development section to root my DHD and S-OFF, it's pretty easy to follow
I don't know anything about downgrading hboot or that stuff.
The multi-touch on my device is crap:
I shot a video of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vj5z08CC5AQ
Most times 2 points work, but with 3 and 4 points the sensor is going crazy!

thats the guide i read, its always daunting rooting a new device isnt it nooooo dont say that the website said the hd support 4 point multi touch aslong as you dont get the axis flipping and it supports 2 touches though i'll be happy
if you are wanting to root your desire HD first check what firmware is already installed if its 1.72.405.3 this can't be rooted yet but if its still has older firmware 1.32.405.3 you are fine and you can root with Visionaryr14. so don't update your phone(if you have older firmware) to any new firmware until you are radio s-off.
if you do have 1.72.405.3 firmware you can now downgrade it to older firmware read thread below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003
but you will need installed on pc htc sync drivers which you can download from HTC site also need android sdk tools (need adb) which can be found here http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html need
also been branded you will needed to make a goldcard on your sdcard to be able to downgrade but in the thread above the is a link to show how its done.
just hope you have older firmware on phone.
sorry matey didn't really read you post, different between the s-off's radio s-off is were its sercurity premanently off and eng s-off is were the h-boot has been patch telling the radio the sercurity is off.
If it comes with 1.72 or 1.75 firmware root I'd not availiable....Yet!

you should have no problems been able to downgrade then. you may want to use this ruu http://xdafil.es/DesireHD/RUU/RUU_A....140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_157531_signed.exe
as your PM98IMG.zip as it orange uk so may not need to make a goldcard.
Just to keep your hopes up i only got mine on friday it had the older firmware on.
i soon s-off and eng -s off, now i can not stop flashing roms finding the one i like best. i would say thou if you plan to flash up to the 1.72 rom dont flash a new custom kernel...yet
Thamks for all your help guys, i got my DHD earlier today, and it only took me 10 minutes to root and s-off it came with software version 1.40, i used visionary to root it, then used the one click radio s-off tool to s-off now im gunna download rom manager and flash cwm
Nice no having to downgrade enjoy

I've done a fair few flashes with my Desire and always found it quite easy to follow and do, but I am so, so, so confused about how to go about attacking the HTC Desire.
Essentially, I want to root it and install a custom ROM (maybe change a radio, that's it). However, there is no set of instructions in any one thread, it's all over the place.
So far, i've managed to permroot my brothers phone using Visionary. Now, the next step is getting Clockwork Recovery. However, there seems to be two version 2.x (installed by ROM manager) and version 3.x. Apparently the former doesn't work for CM7... but I cannot find how to actually get Clockwork 3.x installed (easily...).
What are the most popular DesireHD ROMs and do they all require Clockwork 3.x? Also, what is S-Off... and do I need it!?
Because standard Desire does not have nearly as tight security as DHD has. You need S-OFF to get clockworkmod, and if you want to flash CWM 3.x, you need ENG S-OFF. Only gingerbread roms need CWM 3.x.
S-OFF: Phone security off, internal memory becomes read/write, you can flash anything you want, no version checks etc.

I suppose so. So basically, the steps are:
Root phone - Done
S-Off/Eng S-Off
Install Clockwork Mod
Install ROM
The bit I find trouble with is how to do the clockwork mod bit. It seems like CM is the best DHD ROM, but that requires Clockwork Recovery 3.whatever and to get that installed you have to go through a ton of SDK stuff. Is there an easy way to get it installed?

Simple answer, no.
Please try following the advice you are being given and search the development forum, if your not willing/able to devote the time to reading up on S-OFF and installing CM7 please leave well alone and save us all a little time
To be honest I think that dhd is quite easy to root. You have one click tool in stickies so really a monkey could do it.

I wouldn't hold your breathe, whilst there is a simple-ish downgrade route the chances of anyone going to the great effort of needlessly finding and exploiting a new security flaw are remote. Anyone desperate for root will probably take the downgrade route and anyone unable to grasp the steps involved would probably be better served by a stock rom

Hey,
I have a Wildfire 2.2 with 0.80.0002 HBOOT. Can i root it?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Update. I installed the drivers. Tried rooting with 3.14 and the new one. But they fail. The new one says " root failed. maybe your firmware is too new?" and 3.14 just says " root failed".
What could be wrong?
Maybe its because im on froyo? but my hboot is 0.80.0002 so i should get a root. Any suggestions? Maybe i should downgrade to 2.1. I would have an old firmware with an old hboot

btw. when i install vista drivers and plug-in my widlfire it says MY HTC in the device manager.
Dude... I'm also using an x64 win7... firstly...use winrar to unpack the reflash package... extract it to someplace u can remember... jus install the drivers according to the instructions given in the 'hboot.html' file in the reflash folder.. its pretty easy... I always used to root my phone using this computer only ... never had a single problem... alternatively u could install HTC sync...( it will install the drivers ) and then remove it (only the application.. not the drivers).. and then try to root...
Hope I helped...

Then how is your HBOOT still at 0.80? Please confirm the same. As far as I am aware, nowhere on the earth (Except the old Chinese release), did the official Froyo release not update the HBOOT to 1.0x
Also, in such cases, apps like Super one click root can only give temporary / shell root, which is pointless really, as it does not help achieve perm root.
What all do you exactly see on your HBOOT Screen? (Power down your phone. Press Power + Vol Down simultaneously, and let me know what it shows)

You should try downgrading, or manually pushing the recovery (follow link that 3xeno posted above). Rooting really shouldn't be this hard, lol. No version of Unrevoked will work with 2.2 AFAIK for root, as I've heard people flash a 2.1 RUU and then root. That's another option - flash a 2.1 RUU (NOT 2.2) and then unrevoked. its 99% guaranteed to work the first time, and i guess 99.999% guaranteed to work within 3 tries. (0.001 % just in case, lol )
edit: running a 2.1 RUU is probably the easiest way... you should try it.
Ok. I pushed recovery in the hboot menu. thing is . i have clockworkd mod iLol'ed.I forgot Okay so ill try to flash now... Wait for it... wait for it... well install is complete.
I remember now. When i tried to root it a month ago it installed the recovery but it did not root my phone. Now when its rooted(i think) it works!!! LOL
Hi,
I just want to know if with the 2.3.3 the root process is diffrent, or just do the same thing as the old 2.2.1.
Anyone as already tried?
funny story its non existent, it cant be rooted and wont be for a very long time if ever
I think you're wrong, cause maybe just needs to downgrade the firmware as usual.
But I need someone who already did it.
if you can figure out how to downgrade it, go ahead. But as of yet, there's no way to root the official gingerbread update.

And how about the "goldcard" ? create one, and then install just lower version via recovery or something... I've read somewhere that u can install lower builds of OTA and then root the phone ... will that work? or i just missed something during lecture...
I believe that the desire hd gingerbread update has been rooted by means of downgrading. We just need to wait for someone to figure it out for us DZ users

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I did that for rooting the 2.2.1 and downgranding to 2.2
Hope works for this one too.
Goldcard won't work, yet.
Stay tuned though, very soon a temp-root will be released, which will allow you to downgrade.
