Hi...It has been a long time since I have posted in this forum because I thought I had bricked my phone and given up.....somehow I got out of it and now I need your help again.
What originally happened is that I tried to restore my phone with pd115.img so that I could sell it to someone that wasn't exactly tech savvy... being a dumbass I make the mistake of booting with pd115 not knowing that I should have restored JUST my radio first...anyways this pretty much screwed me...until somehow I restored it to a working ROM(because there was no ROM on it before)...so I am now trying to root my phone....again...so that I can run the radio update and then the pd115 that will completely restore my phone to stock. Problem is I can't get VISIONary to work at all... i tried permaroot..didin't work, so i tried the same way I did originally which was temp root and then terminal method..but i don't think the temp root is even working...when i click it, it just kind of flashes...i thought i remembered it doing more work then that, anyways, can someone help me please?
Is your current ROM not rooted? Or do you have root access, you just can't S-OFF or change ROMs?

And how to fix it!?
Basically for the last two days I have been trying to root my phone unsuccessfully. The problem is with the hboot driver and it not working. The first time i installed the driver it seemed to go fine, but after plugging my Wildfire into the usb I got a new hardware message and it was trying to find "ADB"..
Anyways unrevoked obviously did not find my phone so today I have uninstalled the driver and tried to update it again. At first it seemed to be going well, but then it asked for winusbcoinstaller.dll from disc.. I tried to link a picture but because of my low post count I cant.
Does anyone know what this means and how to fix it?
Many thanks in advance and sorry if its in the wrong section.

Sugar. Cheers for that. I thought i was running 2.1 as i have never done any upgrades!, i didnt think my phone came standard with 2.21.. lol.
Guess i'l check back in the future to see if there is a fix.
My Wildfire was also shipped with 2.2..
Just took it out of the box and tried to root -> not this time...

Yes, you are. The downgrade guide is valid only for the CN Froyo Release, which had a HBOOT version 0.83

Go ahead and try it first with out factory resetting. If it doesn't work then you'll need to factory reset. I'm sure you'll be fine with out doing it though.
thanks going to try this, do i need to unlock the sim though? and flash the bootloader?

No the SIM is optional. But I would highly suggest the bootloader. Especially if you're going to be flashing ROM's and kernels.

That's odd. I wonder why root isn't sticking. You might have to try and factory reset and start from scratch.

I'm glad you got it to work man. And you're welcome.
First off im not a noob. i have/had a nexus s; captivate, att sgs2 all rooted flashed and the sort. my wifes atrix 4g is a mystery. it could be because i havent spent as much time with it as the other phones but anyway heres the prob: when she got her phone it was running either 2.2 or 2.2.xx cant remember but i rooted it using gingerbreak. then she did the gingerbread update on top of the root. here is the problem. the phone still has the supersuser app and looks like its rooted but its not. how do i remove all of the the components of the root then reroot? theres nothing wrong with the phone it works fine no problems whatsoever. a lil info any advanced users could use: system version 4.5.91.mb860.att.en.us running 2.3.4 kernel 2.6.32.9-00001-g41bc3e0 [email protected]#2 build# 4.5.91
any help will be appreciated. ill try to check this tread as often as i can. we just had a newborn 3 weeks ago and a 2yr old running around as well as working full time. feel free to send a pm with any question r possible solutions. thx

What makes you think its not rooted?
In any case, try "re-rooting" using the info in this thread.
Any app that requires root permissions says its not rooted. ill try that and see what happens. thx

No probs mate, just helping out a fellow Atrix-er
EDIT: BTW, I did zero work for that, full credit to sanriver12 and Pete's Motorola Root Tools
So I understand that there is a new update out and I'm wanting to upgrade to it. I'm currently rooted and have xposed installed. I was wondering if I will keep root and not have to wipe my device.
If I have to re-root it, could someone please show me the steps to take? I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

Yes, to upgrade to the newest firmware you will lose root and more then likely have to fully wipe your phone, just make sure you back everything up. The root method is the same as when you 1st rooted your phone, but I will leave you a link to the root thread. Always try to search for the answer's before asking question's. Hope this helps you out buddy Click here

Hey bud I hope I caught you before you took the update. I would read the stock rom thread for that update. Something about not updating the bootloader . I have not taken the update as of yet so I dont know about it but here is the thread for it. You might want to ask in there before updating.
So I am interested in rooting my LG V20 h91810s. From what I gather I have to roll it back to 10j or i. I have the bootloader unlocked already. But I'm not sure about the rollback. Will a factory reset take it back to 10j or 10i? If not, I haven't been able to find step by step instructions on doing this. I think once I can get it rolled back I should be able to follow https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/instruction-to-root-h918-10i-t3536472 in order to root it. Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
No can do..... You will make your phone into a paper weight.
So there is no way to root it? I need to root it in order to recover some very important texts. If it can't be rooted does anyone know how I could recover a deleted sms thread?
Thread title changed on OP's request
Thank you very much.
As of right now anything 10p or higher is ARB01. Which means you can't roll back to root. Trying will create a brick. There are people working hard to make it happen but until then it's a waiting game. As for the recovery of SMS hopefully someone can help you. Chances are if you've searched and searched for an answer with no luck, it'll be hard to get that answer here. But you never know. Good luck.
Ah, that sucks. Well tyvm anyway.
We are both on the same boat unfortunately, we'll have to wait patiently.....
Me too waiting to root my h91810s.... hopefully someone will find a method soon.....
Sucks! But I like this phone. It'll be a shame to switch. ?
might be a dumb question but has any of you guys tried kingroot?

Now, when I tried it I did it without boot loader unlocked, not sure I'd that's why it didn't work but if someone wants to try?

Yeah someone should try it bc I did (I am rooted already) it did said there was method of root. Not sure if it would would because I am already rooted

Yeah no reason for you to try... Cause of it works we would be rooted Samsung style using flashify instead of twrp.

No I remember I used it to root get the used flashify to flash TWRP.img then flashed magisk and removed kingroot after. If someone with a unlocked boot loader could try it because they had many requests for root

Care to interpret what exactly they did to root? Where to get files and how to? Maybe this can be changed to English format.....
Just wondering if there's a progress thread for the h91810s exploit. I just received mine and it's on the same firmware.
