still didnt work :-( hellppp im desperate to root my mt3g

There are many tutorials online for mt3g.
Two of the best are Unlockr or Cyanogen's.

You may have to use the gold card method like I did, that's all included in the Unlockr tutorial.
Thanks to the Unlockr.com and the cyanogen team, great work guys.
I googled the Androot deal and found a QR code and using my barcode scanner and installed it that way. My phone is a mytouch 3g like yours so don't be confused that it says magic down there because I am using the CyanogenMod 6.1.0 rom from Rom Manager.

does ubrevoked work for rooting DHD because the root method is abit complicated I heard unrevoked roots any 2.2 device which run 2.2 out of the box.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Have a look for visionary+
Not sure if Unrevoked is only for the original Desire but the above will do the job nicely.
Is it an easy root? That's all I want a a few clicks and walla a rooted DHD
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Doesn't come much easier, run the app and hit root! If that's all you want then you're done!
If you want to start flashing custom roms though you will need to s-off your phone though. A little more in depth but still not too bad.
That's the what is s off also I might as well root after the official gingerbread release or should I just root now?
Which would be best.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Depends what you want to do with the DHD ... I forgot to mention also that you will need a custom recovery image if you want to start flashing roms. Again, all pretty straight forward if you follow the instrucitons to the letter.
Have a read here:

I suspect that afte rooting you'll not be too bothered about ota updates from your carrier as the stock unbranded rom is likely to get updates sooner and the custom roms will always incorporate the latest releases anyway.
In answer to the question though I'm not sure in all honesty.
thanks for all your help.
I have the Android version 2.2 Software version 3.7. I was wondering if there is anyone here that has rooted this yet? I have tried unrEVOked and a few other methods to try and root my phone, but its just not happening. If anyone knows how I can fix my problem, please let me know. I would greatly appreciate it.

Since you can't figure where to post a question on these forums, I would hold off on rooting before you ruin your phone.

Is rooting really needed for the kf? I am not super computer suave, but I did root my X10a. What I really want to know is will I need to root to be happy with the kf?

If you want the android market you will want to root it. But with burrito root it's pretty easy.
Thanks
I was looking at some of the videos and I just get nervous about bricking it. I will give it a shot when I pick one up.
It's not "needed" but it totally turns into a full Android tablet, once you put CyanogenMod on it that is. It's great.
No need to be nervous. Just follow the guides that are in the Development section and with some patience, everything will go smooth.
I will try it out when I get it.
Who will unbrick it when things go wrong lol

If I don't get the CM7 rom will the OTA updates from Amazon kill my root access and Google Android Market?

I've heard just about ANY OTA updates kills root access. So if I were you I would totally not take anything from Amazon after rooting and putting CM on it.
Edit: if you don't put CM on it and stick to stock Fire, then to answer your question, yes it will probably kill root access. All depends on what the OTA consists of.
I am really just wanting the Google Android Market. Will the OTA updates kill the market along with root access? I couldn't find where it said that it killed the market also.

I am not so sure on that one, I'm sorry. I would think Stock Fire software wouldn't play nice with Android Market installed as well, I could be wrong, not sure.
Hello everyone!
My name is AndroiddiordnA and I have a Motorola XPRT that I am looking to revive from the brink of extinction.
I am looking for a couple developers that are willing to work with me on three assignments.
1. Getting a stock deodexed rom .zip flashing in recovery.
2. Initial port of any form of AOSP rom (cm7-cm9)
3. Take that port and make it into a form of daily driver.
All three assignments are separate as I will be offering reimbursement for each.
Reimbursement can be discussed over PM *NOT IN THREAD*
Please let me know if you would like to help me with my project. Either message me below, or send me a PM.
Thank you,
AdA
I know very little on the development side of things, but i just wanted to say THANK YOU!
I have been searching and searching for roms for my xprt.
I was so happy to see ur post about making some.
like i said im not very good on the dev side of things, but i will do my best to help as much as i can if needed.
again, THANK U!
Rom development would be much easier if I could root this thing already :c
