My friend has the htc mytouch glacier 4g and is looking to root it, is there an all in one toolkit for this phone as all we can find is a toolkit for the htc mytouch slide, 4g. Any and all help would be appreciated, it is just that there are soo many different guides and such for it and it has gotten a bit confusing trying to follow a guide when they point to other things. please reply
No toolkit. You have to do this the old fashioned way.
Had you looked a few threads down, you would have seen this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2105509
Yes I was looking at that guide as you were probably replying, It is hard to try and help someone out when the phone is not in front of you, so getting the correct info is a deffo for my friend. Many Thanks Indeed.

No problem. Remember, copy/paste is your friend. That is the best way to prevent issues when downgrading.

I have, but i cant seem to find what im after.
PS
I am a complete novice with this phone....a virgin.
In all honesty, you really should spend a couple of weeks reading the forums before you flash your phone.
If you don't then I can see your next thread will be cursing at us because we didn't tell you properly and now you've bricked your phone.
The "Wizard Upgrading" Forum contains more information than you will need.
Search for "CID Unlocking" that would be a good start.
Dude, read, read, read. Then read some more.
I've been reading for weeks and just flashed mine for the 1st time 3 days ago. So far all is PERFECT. So much better.
It will be all good. Make sure you back your sh*t up!!!!
Whats flashing?
I believe flashing is the inappropriate exposure of privates - I don't mean the military kind. OF course it is also referred to the process of updating the ROM of an electronic device.
Thanks guys, im gonna do that. Once again thanks.

Which "that" are you referring to?
1. Exposing your privates in a not so private manner.
2. Flash a Rom onto your Device.
3. Read, read and then read a bit more until you understand what you want to do.
^^^ lol. Im gonna do a search and read more, that's what i meant.

Whew!! Now I can surf the forums with my eyes open again! :lol:
I posted up earlier and then tried to reply to my own thread to get attention/help
If anyone can help me with an opinin to transform my TILT HTC 9300 from the factory to the best applications themes thats all I'm looking for!
I tried a couple of things and I haven't pinned it yet
any help would be HUGELY APPRECIATED!
something that would end up as nice all around as the iphone is what I'm looking for thru windows. If theres something someone could recommend Much appreciated
umm.
try ifonz, that makes it look like an iphone .
but u should atleast reflash the ROM then install the eye candy, factory rom is really slowww
Ever try searching? You're not going to find ANYONE who will agree on the BEST apps. You're just going to have to try by trial and error. Go search in the forum for your device, look at people's sigs as they often have links to cabs, etc.

Your best bet is to start off by going to the forum for your phone and reading EVERYTHING (especially the stickies). Then after reading EVERYTHING, in detail, you will figure out exactly what you want to do.
Thanks alot "I really appreciate that"

i believe that comment was because this has been addressed a LOT!! when new users ask questions without doing a little research on their own first people are less likely to help you in this forum. just a heads up for next time. good luck finding the information you need and next time try to spend a little time reading previous posts to find answers first. take care

The reasons why people less likely to help are
1) they don't really have enough or reliable information to give you an exact answer.
2)It is angry when you answer question like this: 1000times
are you a boy?yes
what is your name?noob
are you a boy?yes
what is your name?noob
are you a male?yes
what is your first name?freaking
you sure you are a boy?yes
what is your name again? freaking noob.......
.......
However, mostly XDA users are polite. please read and search...Before you start a thread, if you are lazy...press ALT+F4,it definitely help you heaps.....
Search dude....
I can help u locate the search box on this page..let me know

I was getting ready to post a question, then i searched it and there was my answer, but it came with a new question....which the answer was found the same way, people weren't kidding about this site when they tell me you can literally find anything here. Looking forward to getting more active here. Cheers.
Welcome to android. This site has really helped me learn a lot and I now feel comfortable modding all sorts of things on my evo. And like it was said, always search. There is a ton of info on here and if you can't find an answer, there are plenty of people to help

Hello and welcome! Lots of info here, just start browsing.
Welcome. Agree with the OP about reading.
What I did to help me learn before rooting my Evo was to just read through the threads in Q&A and General. It gave me a lot of small bits of information that I didn't find in the guides and stickies, and really helped me familiarize myself with what I was getting into. Once I started knowing the answers to some of those questions, I tried to help out. That's really helped me to continue learning.
I'm in the process of doing it again for my boyfriend's Thunderbolt, trying to decipher what small differences there are between the two devices. I know it's usually the other way around - the boyfriend does the rooting stuff for his girl - but we're a couple of odd birds.
Anyway, great to see someone new taking the initiative to search out their questions! It's refreshing to say the least. Welcome to XDA

I had to help my boy root his Thunderbolt and I just skimmed through the Thunderbolt threads for a root method that look similar and one that a lot of people seemed to say had little to no problems and went with it. He came from an Iphone as well and now has become quite a flashaholic. Every time I see him he has a new theme or trying new stuff. From what I have seen from that forum we share some of the same developers so it should not be an issue for you.
Honestly I know a lot of people get scared when messing with their phone but most things are common sense and if in doubt a search in here will help you out. Always read the OP over and over till you feel you got it down....
Enjoy and welcome to Android and XDA ...

I second this as well. Really helped me out at first.
I read not too long ago that the LG G6 H873 was rootable via an app that was developed, but the guy in charge got scared of the legality of the whole thing, and shut-down development. The post I read had a link to the app in question, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. If it's not too much trouble, would anyone mind sharing the link to the post, or the link of the app itself? Also, is there anyone working on achieving a root at the moment? I read a post, but OP seems to have gone dark for about a week now. I'd like to know if there's any hope left at all. Thanks for reading. A response would be greatly appreciated.

I finally found it! As the posts say, it's only temporary, and you must roll back to Android 8, but it's definitely something! I'll post the link to it below. Apparently, it works with the H873, and it runs well. Just follow the guide that one of the people posted. Hopefully, we'll be able to find someone skilled and motivated enough to unlock the bootloader through this. I'm going to respond to a few OPs that are still working on unlocking the bootloader/rooting the device with the link to help them. I wish anybody who tries this the best of luck. I'm going to try it myself soon. Thanks for reading.
