Gingerbreak doesn't work on 2.3.4. Currently nothing does.

Yes here is how i did it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178912 follow the G2 method, when you get to the part where you put this in # /data/local/tmp/misc_version -s 1.19.531.1 make sure you put the version you want like 1.17.531.2 not 1.19.531.1 I used PD15IMG_Glacier_TMOUS_1.17.531.2_Radio_12.28b.60.1 40e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155771_signed renamed it PD15IMG then put it on sdcard
Thanks for that but.... I really would prefer to root w/o downgrading if possible?
I know it can be done but I suspect I'll have to wait until someone does it and shows me how.
I've tried The Unlocker's techniques with worked before but Visionary won't run on Gingerbread, AAMOF it FUBARS the phone and has to be removed to get the phone working correctly again.

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.

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).

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 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?
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.

You are mixing up roms and official update zips. You can't just flash a rom thorough hboot. That's not how it works.

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
So I've just downgraded and rooted, I'm trying to find a 2.3.4 (Gingerbread) stock rom that is rooted. I can't seem to find it anywhere and I've been looking for a while. Correct me if I'm wrong but re-updating to 2.3.4 after downgrading to root will either not work or not stay rooted right? If the update will work I'll just do that but if not can someone provide a link to the rom I'm looking for?
Ive seen the stock senes(less) rom but I'm literally looking for completely stock. normal mytouch sense and all.

Just got a new MyTouch 4G:
Android version 2.3.4
HTC Sense version 2.1
Software number 2.19.531.1
Wanted to get temp root so I followed instructions from:
http://theunlockr.com/2010/12/10/how-to-temporarily-root-the-t-mobile-mytouch-4g-htc-glacier
Set the USB Debugging to ON
Set the Fastboot to OFF
Installed "com.modaco.visionaryplus.r14.apk".
Temp Root After Reboot is ON
System R/W After Root is ON
Then I clicked TempRoot Now
Visionaryplus is rooting device, please wait ...
I have waited for more than 10 minutes.
Nothing happened.
What should I do?
First downgrade to the pre-OTA MT4G build, which is Android 2.2.1. Then you'll be able to use Visionary to temp-root. Sounds like you need to do a little searching/reading. This has been covered over and over.
Yeah. Also VISIONary will only work for good-chip phones (or bad, may be mixed up), but gfree works with whatever you have. To root the mytouch, YOU MUST BE ON FROYO
