Rooting wildfire - Wildfire General

Hi app can you tell me if wildfire on 2.2.1 can be rooted ?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App

Yes, NO it can not, if you used like 2 minutes reading the forum you would already know that since HTC upgraded hboot from 0.8 to 1.01 noone has been able to root it yet, unless they use XTC Clip to set wildfire s-off, then degrade it to eclair that's the android 2.1. Then it can be rooted as far as I understand it, but if you don't know anyone with the XTC clip then welcome in the que to the rest of us waiting for a software solution, that unrevoked is working on......

As question has been answered closing thread

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

Nothing technical about it, all you have to do is search and read.

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.

If you've read the thread, you would know that there is no way to root that HBOOT version. Unrevoked 3 currently only works on the stock HBOOT.

Solution for downgrade is not working. At least, untill a temp root exploit will be found for this new hboot.

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.

LOL.
Anyway, find someone with an XTC Clip, get your phone S-OFF, then downgrade and root. There is no software method as of now, so, no use asking for 'alternate' methods.
Secondly, as for your unlock method, don't think there is any method that works on Wildfire yet. (Will that change after S-OFF dont really know, since, here, there is no concept of 'Simlocked' phones). The only method I know of is buying an unlock code.
thanks man..i'll try something... so far i LOVE my htc
i'm just waiting for 2.3 to come out to root my phone and insert custom room

Downgrade to 2.1 then ROOT with unrEVOked, flash Cyanogenmod7 and works like a charm!!!!!!
How is that plz xplain
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App

Does unrevoked work on 2.2

Well can you root a 2.2 aria.. or do you need to downgrade (might root someone's aria)... and if you need to downgrade a link would be really good
Sent from my HTC Vision
unrEVOked does not work with the 2.2 update on the Aria as of yet. And I am not sure (but fairly sure) that a downgrade has not been achieved.
K thanks.....

Rooted and installed mod7 on my 2.2.1 wildfire

Hi, this is my first post. I bought a wildfire as my friend had one with mod7 on it, which looked smart. Didnt realise until after I bought one that the wildfires running android 2.2 seem impossible to root! After reading lots of bullsh*t threads I thought it was impossible. Until i finally managed to root mine and install mod7!
You have to get s-off to start with, which i did at my local market man, who used his XTC clip. I believe, like it or not, this is the only way at the moment to s-off a wildfire running 2.2.1. Once this is done i followed this guide which downgrades to 2.1 then roots the wildfire using an old version of unrevoked, then upgrades to 2.3 rom. Hope this helps someone else....
-- you'll have to google as im not allowed to post links...
google "security xploded wildfire jailbreak"
and the top link there should be the security xploded website with the guide i followed.

Sorry, but, using an XTC Clip on the 2.2.1 Wildfire to get S-OFF and then Root is a process which was known a very long way back. The sticky thread here shows it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=939801
What people want is a free software based solution, much like Unrevoked for Android 2.1, which is yet impossible.
Ah well, this is the only technique which i could ever get to actually work!

The official update is for the end of this month?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
maybe released tomorrow during their conference
this an amazing update by HTC it really transforms the whole phone, their only one bug I could find which is the badly rendered friends stream widget, and one pixel misalignment in the music sound enhancement, but really amazing work from HTC the new gallery rendering is super clean and smooth, the new lockscreen is really something, i hope they pattened it before Apple steals it
It will remove ENG S-OFF, but it will not touch Radio S-OFF. If somebody wants to try that RUU, it is recommended to have Radio S-OFF because then it is easy to go back to another ROM.

Just today i had installed the leaked PD98IMG file of the 3.06.405.2 firmware.
Beforehand i had installed the official 2.50.405.1 RUU and then I installed the upgrade by the recovery.
Well, I was very surprised to find out it was rooted and it still had s-off.
Does anybdy know if installing this RUU I would lose root and s-off?
Sense 3.0? HTC are awesome if they're bringing this to the HD officially
So can I flash this on unrooted device
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I suppose so. Let us know of it works. I would gladly do it of not for the fact that I have already installed this ROM by PD98IMG through recovery.
I wonder if there are differences...
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using XDA App
the only issue i have with it is that the picture on the RUU is of a tablet!? dont really fancy bricking my phone
i was more looking if this was easy way to upgrate /downgrade to gain root access. I really was scared to make the gold card etc...
So if some one had flashed the RUU wanted to see if that worked , especially when they were not rooted
I wanted to see if any one got pass the signature check, this failed for with Signature error.
