Yoo guys
just wondering is there anymore news on rooting the wildfire after the irritating 2.2 update?
No. And, to be honest, this question did not require a new thread.
Anyhow, to reiterate, No.
Well i made a new thread
Ok Thanks

Hi. I am a dev who is fairly new to the Android platform. I recently acquired a droid eris running 2.1 leak v3. I am interested in upgrading to root. I was wondering if anyone had achieved root in any of the leaks? If not, is anyone working on it? If so I may be able to help.
Thanks in advance and I apologize if any of these questions had already been answered. I have searched all over this forum and other forums and could not find a recent answer to these questions.
Also, I hear the OTA is right around the corner and might be the exact same as the third leak. Should I just wait until that comes out to attempt to achieve root? I do not want to spend hours of my time working on this only to have the OTA come out the next day and have done this for nothing.

There are versions of 2.1 rooted, but there is no current way to go from the leaks TO root. There are rooted roms based on 2.1 though.

Hey all!
I was thinking of rooting my eris, but after reading the forum some, I still have a couple questions about Eris rooting and rooting in general.
First off, if I use the one click root app, I will not have to install a new rom, correct? Also, how likely is it to brick my phone? If bricked, is there a method of restoring it?
Secondly, if I install the FroYo rom, would I be able to go back to the factory build of OTA 2.1? Or would I be stuck with custom roms then?
The only reason I am concerned with restoring the factory rom is that if something happens to the phone, I'd like my warranty to still be able to cover it (I'm 99% sure that they won't cover a rooted froyo thats overclocked).
Also, sorry if these have been asked before, I just wasn't able to find them on my own.
You need to ask these questions n the Q&A forum. This is a Dev forum and should only have questions relating to Roms and issues with custom roms.
Get ready for the dog pile.
Uh oh, my bad. I thought it was in the q&a...
Sorry guys, I'll see if I can delete it from the app and repost

hi all, need some help here. started the rooting process on an 2.2froyo evo. but it didnt finish....got to enrevoked stage and bottom line it restarted..it works and as far as i know its v2.1...what know? thanks
Ummm.
This question is better off in the questions and answer section.
You need to be more specific on your rooting process.
I am surprised if you did the long method and downgraded to 2.1 to get root and then plan to upgrade to 2.2. That's the old way.
There is a one click rooting method for 2.2 by unrevoked in beta but it works perfectly.
sorry new here...it was a new evo and had froyo installed already..was following tutorial ... and it restarted...am i screwed.. just want to get back to where i was.
thanks
so u saying u wanna go back to stock 2.2?

Is there any way to downgrade to 2.1 so i can root?
Obviously 2.2.1 can't be rooted at the moment.
Any way to turn the s-lock to off?
PLeeaaaaaseee helppp!
NO! Sorry but please search before starting a new thread, there's at least 3 others on the first page asking the same question! 2.2 cannot be rooted due to a new version of HBOOT. It is possible to downgrade but you can't root it it still has the new HBOOT. I know unrevoked have been working on it for some time (early Jan). I've heard they've bricked a few phones too so I wouldn't do anything silly. There is no ETA for it so just wait patiently like (most of) the rest of the people stuck on 2.2.
Rant over!
1. Reinvent your brains..
2. USE SEARCH. youre 5yo or what?

Admittedly i knew there wasn't much hope when i posted this! I've been trying to do it for a few hours but i keep hearing stories about people who have!
But yeah, just wanted to check that there's been no progress
facepalm...
Hello Everyone,
I was using my Mytouch 4g and wondered the other day, if there would ever be an update? I am pretty much a noob and running Android 2.2.1. This is probably a stupid question, but is there an update for the Mytouch 4g and is it worth it if there is? What are some specs? Also I am not rooted, do I need to be rooted?
THANK YOU for any answers possbile,
Justin
It would only take a second to take a look at General section and see if there are any threads that contain words "official" and "update" in their names
Thanks! Before I update do you think it is worth it? What are some changes?

I'm sorry but one more quick question, will you be able to use HTC Sense?
don't update if you want to root
If you want to root and change stuff then stay with 2.2.1 as far as i know there is no way to perm root 2.3.4 yet, if not update. As for you question about HTC sense its Tmobiles version like you have now.

Yes... The myTouch 4G is powered by HTC Sense with an overlay called T-Mobile mySense, aka espresso Sense.
