That is an error you get with the newest update from HTC. This update contains the HBOOT 1.01. That can't be rooted using unrevoked. this is a post regarding the same problem
If you read a little more you see that AlphaRevX states they has the solution but it is not quite there yet.
As of now the only way to root it is to get someone with an XTC clip to get it s-off first.
there are allready a lot of posts in here regarding this problem.

Did you tried to read more on the forum or just that only post?!

Would it be possible if i dunno maybe a little patience and manners was extended instead of having a pop at new comers? Would it really hurt that much to do Kjeerik did and link to a main post? How many times have you started looking for info and found after hours its right in front of you.
Dosnt hurt to be polite
so what the luck
so any luck to root this device ? or anything ?

Nope. But there is a beta testing going on for alpharevx, so there is already a solution in the pipeline. I'm afraid the only the that can be done is wait and hope it gets trough the test phase..
For the rest of your possible questions:
- nobody knows how long to wait, probably not even the dev's.
- the beta testing is "closed", which means that you have to be invited by the alpharev team personaly. I'm sure that they have enough wildfires to test, because they don't launch any questions for people willing to sacrifice there wildfire. So no need to contact them: if everyone sends them with the same question, then one can call that spamming
So again, sit back and relax, as it is the only thing that can be done now

Hello guys,
I know XDA for a long time now, not been very active because didnt had the time for it and motivation to explore all the new things, because if you want to do something, first you have to do this, and in then post you read that you have to other the other thing, etc. etc. My first smartphone was the MDA vario 1 (from tmobile) and later had some other phones.
From last Friday im the proud owner of a Desire HD! And offcourse was trilled with it, since then playing with it, and know ready for other stuff, like tweaking it for the best experience.
I came across a nice ROM with a small overclock and thought, what the hell, lets give it a try. But what i've mentioned here above, offcourse on purporse, i cant get any further with it.
A question from being a starter, are there somewhere threads when i can learn the basics of installing a new ROM, the things I need to give attention to to now screw up my phone..
And then in wich steps to do something?
Perhaps links to threads? or wich keywords I have to search?
I realise that this kind of questions are perhaps stupid or you dont have time for it to explain, but everyone was once a starter.
Greetz
Edit: I forget to define where I get stuck. I used VISIONary+ but know it only says "rooting" device and cant switch it off. And with the Desire HD Easy Radio Tool V2_2 i cant get radio S-OFF and furter I've read that i have to downgrade the Radio and later I've read that from some version it isnt recommendend.
At least sorry for my bad English
excellent guides in the development section - be prepared for a lot of reading!
Please help
Make my day!
But where to start? Wich order off topics I have to read? I guess the sticky topics?
Can you point a few out so I can start reading
Guys thanks both of you. Been reading for a time right nog, got a few questions.
I've managed to root my DHD! YEAH!
- Using the One Click Radio Tool but getting this message: Unknown error
- Trying to install HBOOT with this:how to but when following the instructions further in the Terminal Emulator, the SUM5 or something else (a big line of numbers/letters), and that it isnt instaleld.
After a big time of reading, got few questions.
I have version 1.32 (1.32.405.6, got this version out-of-the-box) and rooted my DHD! yeah
- Used the One Click Radio Tool but got this error message: Unknown error, probably connection.
- Tried with this How-to but got stuck trying to install HBOOT. At some point (after doing “sh /sdcard/DHD/hboot”) you should get a line of numbers/letters (MD5 sum), and that the first and second should be the same. But in mine case, the first and last (third) are the same and the second is different. The error message was: Exec format error and it should be Function not implemented".
Could someone help me? I would be really greathfull!!
Eventually I want to try first the Pays-ROM HD SPARTA v1.0 because I want to try make my DHD fast astpossible but having all my favorit stuff on it. Perhaps want to try later Android Revolution HD 2.0.9 or Core Droid DHD V2.2.
Guys anyone can give me some help?
Just trying to get started and get on my way to enjoy this part of my life.......

PS: Do not over post (spam) the thread with many questions...be patient and someone will assist you
@OP: I wasnt able to use the one click radio tool either; same error.
So used the one click Soff tool by the same dev.
Am running MIUI Room...its good...but guess Revolution HD will be good...happy flashing
Please close this thread. Thanks....
Is it really this e z now?
Tried autoroot and it gave me some unknown error. Lets see what happens.
it is easy. I'm new to rooting and I did it with no problem. Just follow directions.
Thanks for reading the guide its so easy to do I have done it 6 times and help anyone out not hard at all so easy.
When using unrevoked it may say something about connection with the phone was interrupted when it reboots your phone after running the program. Dont worry its normal and now your fully rooted.
Can't go wrong if you need anything PM and I will guide you through it.

Cool man. This is about the most easy way to do things to root. It's simple to unroot to all of those other programs people say to use can be a pain in the ass to use lol.
Glad it's working for you flashing and rooting is confusing for new people and alot of people can be a bit rude when you ask for help. I been learning everything I can from reading and trial and error.
This is as easy as it gets just follow the directons on there site. Make sure you don't have Htc sync installed otherwise you will have issues.

If your not using a evo this method will not work for you. Check here to see if your phone is supported. This method listed here is for the evo.

Hi, I've tried rooting my phone many ways before and none of them seemed to work (rEVOked, Revolutionary) And I found out it was because of my HBOOT. It was different to the others that have rooted their wildfires. But I want to root my phone so is a Goldcard risky?
Which version is your HBOOT?
It's HBOOT 1.01.0002

This is the only tool you need to root and gain an unlocked bootloader.

Download the advanced ace hack kit and read its manual. Don't use HTCDEV to unlock your bootloader that will only give you problems later.

Always try searching the forum before asking a question. You will be surprised how many people ask the same questions.
For the time being, look in the Android Development forum, there are ICS custom ROMs for you to try.

Hi everyone,
I'm having DHD with Android 2.3.5 and Sense 3.0, i've bought it a year and a half ago, and I never touched it, so it is unrooted and has it's original (stock) room.

You need to use AAHK (Advanced Ace Hack Kit). You can no longer find it on XDA.
But if you search google for AAHK you will find their support page, and you can download it from there.
Also mae ksure to read the manual (called the effin' manual). Don't skip a word!!
Also, since you are on 2.3.5 you need to downgrade. Instructions are on the effin manual.
Teichopsia, I can't thank you enough man!! You helped me A LOT with that link
I've done this for the first time ever, and all went the way it should! Running ICS wooooo!

The guide was written by glevitan, thus, he deserves the thanks. All I did was point you in the right direction (and proof-reading that guide about 5 times before it was uploaded ).
From that same link check out post #179, currently it should be the last page.
I'm glad it's all sorted out. Happy flashing.
