clicked temporary root then clicked try perma root then it rebooted and it never fully booted it just stayed on the htc logo...... then after 10 minutes i pulled the battery went into hboot and factory reset..... still nothing..... can i use the pc10ding.nbh file and it work??? if so give a link....
Slow down. You will end up truly bricking in haste. Please read the wiki on how to manually root, follow everything in there. Its simple. . . .
I'm having the same problem with my dads phone, though mine turned out flawless. All I did was install visionary r12, temp root, then perm root. When It booted it stayed at the HTC splash screen.

No, It won't.
paul o brian told me to just reflash stock
I've been looking for a stock G2 rom, let me know if you find one. Don't do anything else before actually reading a lot. Your phone isn't bricked but if you make a couple more wrong steps you might just get it there.

Worst thing you can do is panic and mess it up even more.
There was a topic here guiding how to return to stock for people that modified system folder by removing the google goggles. That should work.

Try to flash stock back, and see if it works again.
it doesnt really sounds like brick..
I've gone from the desire z rom back to stock which removed by root flashing the rom below. I can't remember where I got the rom from.
rename to this PC10IMG

Are you guys serious?!? Cool
I used to have a G1 and I bricked it .. got stuck in the 'G1' logo...
I'm not yet ready to perma-root my G2 ... I'm waiting for the 1 click Perma Root.. is there such thing??
yes, I'm a chicken..
Try to stay away from one click apps.. they might be the easiest way out, but the most risky as well. Take your time to learn how to use ADB and do everything manually. Use the Rage Against the Cage method to obtain S-OFF and Perm Root..
Updated with tmo ota. No dice. I'm still stuck at HTC screen o death.

Well it is now official that gingerbread has been leak/released for our G2 and I'm sure lot of us who had soft bricks are happy to know we can unbrick it and now to our next problem rooting it
I have tried 2 ways so far first is the wiki way with psneutur and gfree, and other is temp root with visionary
My results for both came negative,
Gfree/ psneutur gave me permission denied after I pushed it in
Visionary jus gave me black screen
And gingerbreak requirs s-off
So let's gather info and or figure out a way to root new gingerbread if any tried downgrade method let all us know with steps what you did
Here is the info for new gingerbread
Ship s-on
Hboot 0.82.0008
Radio 26.08.04.30M3
eMMC-boot
Apr 13 2011,
So hope we can find solution to root and we can get custom roms back on it
you need to try to gain temproot with gingerbreak. can you please come over #g2root ?
I just said I tempted and it just stuck on trying to root nothing happen and I will go what irc server? Freenode?
Let's wait for an update from paul on visionary

Visionary (as evidence by the sticky at the top of the dev phone saying DONT USE VISIONARY TO PERM ROOT) has bricked many a phones that have only now been able to be fixed. I think its just a trust issue and comes to down to each individual and what they personally think and believe I personally would never use visionary again no matter how many times its updated or "fixed". The trust has been broken.
Idk why there's hate on visionary... I rooted my phone the second day the process was released and I've never had an issue since...? And I've rooted 2 other g2s well after and still never had any issues... just followed instructions. I understand it can brick your phone, but then again... was it really visionary that bricked it? Or was it an user error placing blame?? Just saying....
Sent from my HTC Desire Z/G2 using XDA App
yeah i rooted my g2 using the visionary method and have had no issues. and it seems like a lot of the bricking has occurred since i rooted, so i dont get it.
i did visionary root with success, but put yourself in the other end of ppls shoes who did use visinary an you get a brick and no way out of it, other than have gfree with jus pushing, and everythign else is done for you, i would go that route than a higher chance of bricking,
But this thread is not bout bricking this is about how to obtain root on the new stock rom that is out
Yes please! if anyone finds out how to root the G2 with stock Gingerbread could you please post! thanks in advance!

user error? lol in a one-click root... maybe they were pressing the top right corner of the button and that's their error lol
I don't know, either, but there has to be some reasonable explanation, doesn't there? After all, many people (myself included) had no trouble rooting with Visionary. OTOH, this is my second G2 - the first went back under warranty. With the first one, Visionary was unsuccessful at perm-rooting. This one, worked on the first try. Odd? Computers are NOT supposed to behave randomly - so why the difference?
when someone comes up with the visionary source, there are people that can understand it. until then it's a black box.
+1
I'm in the same boat. I just got a brand new G2 off craigslist, and was very happy to see that it had gingerbread. But to my extreme dissappointment, I cannot root it or downgrade it to gain root. Below are the things I have tried and didnt work.
Visionary
Gingerbreak (v1,0, 1.1, 1.2)
Rage
Super One-click
Z4Root
Androot
Gold card, for downgrading, also tried Gold card with above root methods.
I have also tried taking the stock Froyo PC10IMG and modified the info txt to read it as a newer version, and it loaded it, checked it, then just went back to the bootloader screen like there was no image there at all. Last night I was thinking that if I pulled the internal battery (the little tiny one) then it would lose its info, allowing me to load any PC10IMG I wanted. NOPE. Rom and all its info and settings are still intact. Weird, cuz I thought that's what that little battery was for. So, I'm out of options. I love the rom, it's fast as hell and the battery life is far better than when I had my last G2. I just wanna overclock, add some sounds without using Zedge or something (want internal mods that arent dependant on memory using apps), and do some theming. Oh, and removing that horrible pink bloat >:]
I just know that our awesome Devs will come up with something.
XDA ROCKS!!!!!
Waiting?!
Any updates regarding the root?
I tried everything, and nothing works.
I even tried to resend it to the repair center to get froyo, they returned it back saying that they could no longer Downgrade it!
well this is my argument, you can call them and ask them for one that is froyo
complain to them that you have netflix and paying for a service to use on your phone reason why you got it, and since "THEY" updated and made it unsuably they are obligated to give you one that can use netflix or a replacement that can use it as they have done something that was not confirmed with you if you sent it for simple repair, you did not get your phone back to how it was you got something different...
start this fight you will probably end up with a mytouch 4g

Hi!
The config options that you would have to change are written to the emmc on partition17 (main version) or partition7 (S-OFF, SuperCID, SIM-Lock) so that will not change if you pull any kind of battery.
The only chance to root this rom is that we find a new temp-root method and then do the usual things (misc_version, goldcard, downgrade, gfree, ...)
I do not expect that someone publishes a new temp-root before either T-Mobile/HTC rolled out the OTA or a different device running 2.3.4 really needs it.
Have fun - Guhl

Hello everyone,
Any help you guys can give will be much appreciated.
I have a MyTouch 4G previously running Froyo, rooted and S=Off. Against better judgment, I decided to put this release of Gingerbread 2.3.4 on it:
PD15IMG_Glacier_Gingerbread_S_TMOUS_2.19.531.1_Radio_12.58.60.25_26.11.04.03_M_release_200756_signed.zip
Though everything seems to work fine, I lost root. Contrary to most other accounts from other people who flashed the same file, S=Off remained on my phone.
I would really like to get root back so I can use some of my apps again.
Visionary stops at a black screen.
Gingerbreak runs forever with no success.
What other means can I use to get root back or am I SOL for now until someone figures out how to root 2.3.4 on the MT4G?
Thanks again.

From what I could find in the forums, you are kinda stuck till someone comes up with another exploit in order to gain root and s-off
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
I am stuck in the same situation, except that I updated first to the official gingerbread rom for mytouch 4g and then tried to root my phone, i.e. the phone was not rooted at all.
I'm quite confident an exploit will be (re)written - just a matter of time. It's just that I couldn't use some of my paid apps.

lOOK AT WOLF26915's post use the G2 instructions to temp root using the fre3vo exploit in adb then change your version number to 1.17.531.2, then your bootloader will allow you to use the 2.2.1 PD15IMG update to get back to stock and root.

This is the problem with n00bs. You wanna jump head first into something you have absolutely no understanding of then beg for help over and over in here when you finally brick your phone.
Stupid. You FAIL!
So sick of new users of Android trying to jump before looking. You're the same kind of people who would jump off a cliff before checking to see how deep the water is. Then want help after you break your neck.

That was 20 years ago. And yet, even then, when I wanted to know something; I searched and searched and searched, and searched again. Then I read and read and re-read over and over and over again. And after all that if I still didn't know then I would ask. But I would also ask in a proficient manner.
Too many young kids jumping in on the Android bandwagon and wanting to root and flash Rom's right out of the box without learning first.
I stand by my first statement.
If you had Radio S-OFF, you should be able to flash an unsigned PD15IMG.zip even though you lost root.

Interesting. msm_rotator is I believe the exploit used in Fre3vo.
I wonder if this would work to downgrade the HTC Panache from Mobilicity to an MT4G ROM?
I also downgraded back to 2.2.1 then updated to the rooted 2.3.4 and it works
I was able to downgrade from a stock 2.3.3 GB 2.16 Hboot S-ON to 2.2 Froyo 2.10 Hboot S-Off. The PC36IMG.zip does wipe the phone but... where should I upload it to for everyone to test?
I am going to test a rooted stock rom next. Here is the ROM I am testing w/ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133379 (no dice on odexed. gonna try de-odexed next)
Here is the link to image: (still uploading to multiupload)
Dropbox: http://db.tt/iEGT0Ge
**WARNING** We are still getting to the bottom of why this worked for me. Do not flash this without knowing what you are doing. You can brick your phone if things go badly.
You can upload it to a dropbox, megaupload, ect. Though you are going to need to provide in detail what you did, how you came across it, and what's going to happen, because people are gona be skeptical.

also, correct me if im wrong, unless this pcimg somehow has been embedded with htcs keys , i really dont see how it can throw our 2.3.3 s-on phones into S-off past the bootloader, since it simply will not install anything any other way, im not holding my breath much but i hope im wrong
so I came across it on the forums first night I got the EVO back from Sprint w 2.3.3 on the system. I dont recall the thread unfortunetely because I sorta gave up on the idea. Basically I was going to attempt a downgrade but everyone was saying it wouldnt work etc. So I just found it on the memory card and ran it. The only reason I even remembered it was on there was when I went to check which bootloader I had.. 2.16 S-ON. I thought damn it, then the fastboot found an image. I thought sure why not couldnt hurt... It is the full RUU one where everything is wiped and the phone reboots in the middle. Sure enough it came back w 2.10 hboot S-off! No need to take my word for it, please verify. I dont know why it worked other then it has. Still havent been able to flash any ROMs just yet.
so did i. thats why i posted. please verify.

Just like he said the best way is to downgrade through that method. And perm root either by the advanced way cyanogen wrote up. Or more user friendly ones that just require terminal emulator and not adb. u can find any of them through basic searches or through the development section.

1-click root like Z4root isn't available for any phone with Gingerbread 2.3.4 and up.
Judging by some posts on various boards, it won't ever be available, since developers aren't working on any such solution.
You can read some entertaining read:
http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/...otloaders-rooting-manufacturers-carriers.html
And remember some things:
1) Since that time, Samsung and HTC has officially declared they aren't going to lock their bootloaders. Actually, Samsung kept it open all the way, and HTC declared they're going to unlock them starting this summer.
2) There was no easy root app for Gingerbread 2.3.4 ever made, even though an exploit exists that allows temp-rooting. Which means - there are no devs interested in making rooting easier than it currently is, or they're prevented from making rooting easier.
About devs not willing to make it stupid easy to root anymore - you might read Cyanogen's post somewhere, also from several months ago.
Ok. I've researched, and found something called GingerBreak, but I don't really understand it.

To restate what Jack_R1 said. There is no root for gingerbread on this phone. It's simple enough to revert back to 2.2.1 and root once you are there.
[in my words]
If you afraid of ADB and the SKD, and you are to lazy to do some research, you shouldn't be rooting your phone anyway.
[/in my words]
now i took the time to put all of the basic information that you'll need in the newcomers thread. Link in my signature. Take your time read though that and you can root your phone. Regardless of the version you are using. And there is a link, with video, for you setting up your ADB.
Thank you all for replys. you can keep them coming if you wish.
neidlinger, in your signature, it says how to root with root.sh. Is this a perm root or temp root? And is it compatible with 2.3.4? How would I unroot?
EDIT: read on xda that all i need to do is download the froyo rom, boot into recovery or hboot (sorry i forgot), and flash it? Am i correct?

well, once you have the PD151IMG.zip in the ROOT (not in any folders) of your sdcard, the bootloader/hboot should recognize it, and will ask you if you want to update. hit yes, and the rest will be done for you. DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY DURING THE UPDATE PROCESS, THIS WILL BRICK THE DEVICE. after that just reboot (first reboot should take longer than usual, it's normal)
if for some reason the bootloader/hboot isn't seeing your PD151IMG.zip, then redownload the zip again.
It did the no image thing... retry? My stats are:

EDIT: I connected it to my computer, and the zip file is named PD15IMG and a lot of other things. Do I delete all of that and rename it PD15IMG.zip?
