[Q] I don't get root on my HTC Aria - HTC Aria General

Hi, I already used a lot of ways to get root on my HTC Aria but nothing.
When I try with unrevoked I take the following message: "Error: Failed to get root. Is your firmware too new?" in the final of the process, I already tested on Windows and Linux and I don't know what I can do more.
HTC Aria AT&T - Android 2.2.2
Someone have an ideia?

cant root official 2.2.2

There's no known way to root the Aria once it has the 2.2.2 update installed. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do about this.
Did you phone come with 2.2.2 out of the box? Did you update it? Did the store update it for you?

I updated to 2.2.2 using the HTC Aria Update.
My wife has a HTC Aria with 2.1. Do you know if I can get root with this version?

Yes sir. You can. Are you going to load a Rom? If you like HTC Sense, use FR008

Yes, Unrevoked will work on the Aria with 2.1 on it. That's the best way to root the Aria.
If it's important to you to be able to root both phones, you might consider taking it back to the store and seeing if they will exchange it for one without the update installed.

Can I make the downgrade to 2.1?

Nope, that phone is now unrootable, period. (Well, actually it's possible if you sent it to someone who has special hardware, but not something you could do on your own.)

Do you know if the next version of unrevoked will support 2.2.2?

No.but attn1 has a found a hardware solution to root and s-off the updated firmware.look at the 2.2 rooting thread.

[Q] Installing 2.2 on HTC Hero 2.1

Hi all,
I can't find much info about this, but is there anyway to install Android 2.2 (w/o Sense) on a HTC Hero (GSM Version) that has been updated to Android 2.2 via the official update.
There is NO official 2.2 update for the Hero, and probably never will...
Did you mean by the way install 2.2 on a Hero who has been update with the offical 2.1?
Here:
http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/s...o-Root-The-2.1-RUU-or-OTA-Update-For-The-Hero
Yup that's what I meant.
Got a friend who told me he couldn't find anything about rooting a Hero that has been updated to official 2.1
Thanks for the link !!
I just rooted my gf hero today using universal androot. Very surprised it worked. Root held even after a reboot. Just installed a recovery image and away

[Q] root on froyo 3.15.405.3

Hi guys,
as you know, today htc released ota froyo update for unbranded legend.
There are two updates available: the first one is from 2.03.405.3 to 2.05.405.2, and the second one is from 2.05.405.2 to 3.15.405.3.
The question is: once you updated to 3.15.405.3 version is it still possible to root?
Thanks
No.
Sent from my PC running Linux
And so... I will whait!
BlaY0, thanks for reply!
No sweat m8...
also hboot version changed from 1 to 1.01
Sent from my Legend
I would have the original Legend Froyo 3.15.405.3 ROM only with root. NO customization (like BlaY0) or other... only and simply the original 2.2 rooted.
It's possible?
so theres actually no way to root a device thats updated to froyo? not even a way to roll back to 2.1 or something?
i got froyo with vodafone branding

Will you be so kind to make a vanilla froyo zip (without root and others optimizations) for use with dsixda's kitchen? Because i can use that kitchen, but i still can't create vanilla froyo rom for it from old RUU and that damn OTA's.
(You know, people are different, so they're want different customs, not the only devs think what will be best).
what about unrevoked? it seems to be the method of choice for rooting the Desire?

I think will be awesome, the original htc update (not vodafone because not include all languages, etc) only with root permissions. No kernel no h-boots etc, it's possible?
Or, how we can do it (making hands directly into the code)?
Very thank you.
Hi,
Is there any chance to have at least soft root for Froyo?
Universal Androot doesn't work anymore.
Thanks.

Hi all! I've tried the Visionary+ app by modaco on my HTC Legend Official Froyo, but the permroot doesn't work, only temproot works... Anyone has my same problem?

Is it safe to Update?

Is it safe and good to update htc wildfire from 2.1 to 2.2 (Settings - About - Software Update) if HTC is unlocked and not rooted?
I have heard that flash player (after update) is making some kind of problems is that true and should I Update my htc to 2.2 even it's unlocked to my network.?
I would like to know in short, if I do update will my HTC be locked again? And, can I, after Update "root" it using "unrevoked" ?
p.s. I don't have any backups made and don't know how to make them.
Thank you very much!

The wildfire doesn't support flash, simple.
No you won't be able to root after you install the official ota froyo, because htc updated the hboot, and unrevoked hasn't been updated yet.
No flash? How i watch youtube and etc?? What now to root or update? After update is my phone still unlocked???

I don't understand you. I have mentioned Youtube only because of flash support. I can watch & use flash with my Wildfire.
All I need to know is:
1.Can I update my Wildfire if it's unlocked (will it lock again) after update to 2.2 Android?
2.Can I root my Wildfire after update to 2.2?
Thank you
1: It should'nt. But, really, I have no idea here. AFAIK, You will not be able to update OTA if you are rooted and unlocked.
2: No. There's no way to currently root OTA 2.2 from HTC.

Ok. And 3rd question would be: Do I really need to update or should I stay with Android 2.1.?
If yes (need to update) can I and how backup my current system - if something like that is even possible - and restore again if needed?

Since you're rooted(you did root your phone right?), you can't use official updates from HTC. You have to download a ROM from xda forums and flash.

no i i didnt root it! and i don't know how

where i can get official rom?
Ok well I'd recommend rooting your phone first. Its very simple. There's a thread in the HTC Aria forums where it guides you step by step on how to root.
Sent from my Liberty CM7
does it work with gratia? have anybody try it?
Yeah it works with every HTC android phone. I would post the link but I'm on from the xda app and don't know how to post the link. Just go to HTC Aria> Android Development> and there's a guide on how to install unrevoked. Just follow that.

If you have a gratia you can't root the phone. The hboot has not been cracked yet. If you received the phone like this you are going to need to send it back for repair. Also there is no released RUU for the stock gratia.

Isn't the gratia almost exactly like the Aria? Because Arias ROMs are from legend and gratia.
Sent from my Liberty CM7
yes it is the same phone but the hboot which is required for root is a newer version on the gratia. The USA aria and asian with 2.1 have an hboot of .57 the gratia / aria 2.2 update in asia have an hboot of 1.01 or something which cannot be hacked hence no root.

Cyanogenmod and LA Roms are not from Legend. LA FR series is from Aria (Asia) and Gratia, which is an Aria with newer firmware, such as the newer HBOOT that jznomoney mentioned, that hasn't been hacked yet.

thanx God it's not
can you pull the files from your phone MK king
open a command prompt and make a directory change to it and do adb pull /system
it should pull all the files off your phone
compress it and upload it to mediafire or some sort of sharing site. send us a link.

Better yet, could you start the HBOOT in your phone (turn off, press volume down + power button and a white screen with text will come up) and check its version? It should be 0.57.000
Do you know if someone is working on Gratia looking for a way to root it?
Will be possible to do?

There are a few options:
1) Learn how to do it yourself (0% chance of happening).
2) Hire some programmers to do it (5% chance of happening).
3) Wait (20% chance of happening).

i agree, i just flashed the froyo ruu on my phone and now i can't root with unrevoked, it asks if i have newer firmware, help please?
Come on, guys.
To OP: There is currently no way to root a Wildfire which has been loaded with Froyo 2.2. The bootloader has not been cracked ... yet.
Until now, wildfire is unrootable for about 4 months, Desire Z and others got their root almost as soon as new FW were released. Nobody cares about Wildfire, as simple as it is.
hi coldboy46
there is only one way
get your self a xtc clip, or find someone who has, and make s-off
