[Q] can't find tutorial on how to root DHD

basically I'm trying to track down the quickest and easiest way to root my DHD. It's on bootloader .85.0019. I've tried searching on xda but had no luck. I'm new to rooting so go easy with the abbreviations

Where are these people coming from? What's so hard today that people can't use the search function? Typed root in the search box and here's what I got:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=67264315
Look yea mate don't talk about me as if I'm an invalid, I just couldn't find one on this xda app. Wasn't asking for a sarky answer just a plain n simple one would of sufficed. Cheers for the link.

No offense, but this was quite an unnecessary thread. If everyone would think as you, there would be tons of threads like this one when people won't bother to search. If you can't get to a computer at the moment to make a proper search then wait 'til you have access to one. I'm just trying to help and keep this forum clean from filling up with threads that could be avoided if people weren't to lazy to use the search function. This also helps people to get solutions to real problems when they don't have to crawl through tons of pointless threads.
You're lucky he even responded.
There are alot of questions here anyway, and people who are too lazy to do a few searches don't deserve an anwser.
I'd bet if you searched the Q&A subforums you'd find a million topics like yours already.
Good luck rooting ...
Yea true I can imagine, but the search on the xda app ain't so advanced unless I missed something. I am lazy I suppose I could of just jumped on my pc but I'm still getting used to my DHD . Cheers.

No offence taken but I do see your point, the only reason I'm being lazy is because I'm getting used to the DHD but ill take that into consideration n keep my pointless laziness to a minimum n keep the forum clean

(Request) Some way to boost GPU Performance?

Is there anyway possible to improve the GPU performance on the HTC Desire? Cuz from what i know, the GPU performance on the HTC desire isnt really good. So is there any way to improve it?
GPU performance already IS improved. If you want to improve it even more, buy a new phone.
Thank you, Terepin, for such a helpful post! I suggest we make this the standard response for all new threads from now on: "buy a new phone!". Hell, we should even scrap the whole forum and just make a .jpg for the front page, saying: "buy a new phone!".
What would we do without you?
sebastianlow, install a ROM which has the GPU+ libraries integrated into the kernel. Those should boost 3D performance a bit.
I heard that russians connected a gtx 570 to the Desire with copper wires - and it was hell fast. Battery lasted 10 mins tough :/
But now seriously:
Kernel source is out, so new kernels coming should be improving it (if on Gingerbread).
GPU+ was for froyo, not. At least I could not see it on Sense kernels (2.3 +). BTW, AOSP roms have it integrated to thheir kernels already.
The thing is official kernel already has GPU+. Hence I said it already is improved. But yeah, GTX570 will do the trick.
Why not say that in the first place instead of a smartass comment?

Why all the picking on Terepin?
You should be going after the op for posting a question in general and not q&a.

Anyway, I saw this thread today. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254272
It does mention GPU overclock to 83mhz. But i have NO idea what the original gpu clock is.. So.. maybe someone with more experience could check this out?

Because the entire concept of xda community is built around people helping people. And more often than not I see
Terepin making wisecracks which are of no assistance to anyone, moreso it only belittles the OPs who are just in need of a little help.
Sent from my CM7.1 Desire using XDA Premium App
As I said, performance already is improved. And it was improved in custom kernel since FroYo. HTC included GPU+ in their GB for Desire. But OP would know that if he took the trouble to actually test it and to find info about.
You know, there is search feature for a reason. I'm not here to find out things for other lazy individuals. I do however help who deserves it.
Yeah you said that only after someone pulled you up on your wisecrack. I just think if you are gonna use energy to post something it might as well be constructive.

I know where you are coming from but I personally feel this place has little tolerance for n00bs. It is always expected that a certain level of knowledge is acquired...perhaps because every question has already been asked, i dont know...for friendly answers this is not the place i come, although i do try to give them

I agree and I think that's a bit sad really. This place has such an amazing wealth of information and intelligent members, it's the perfect place for a noob to learn all things android. Maybe the more skilled members need to stop being so high and mighty and remember that at some point in the past they too knew three fifths of nothing.

As a noob myself I've found that the best way to find things out is to search for it, simply for the fact that I don't wanna get flamed for the fact that I'm starting a new thread that all of the experienced rooters and modders think is stupid.
There are a lot of great people on here who will help and give give constructive comments, but there are a lot of people also who think that everyone should know as much as they do and have a go at people for asking questions. Sure some people don't bother to find out even the very simplest things for themselves, and they deserve a bit of moaning at. But if someone has tried for themselves, and need a bit of help why not give it to them instead of simply being sarcastic.
I joined XDA to learn and to help others (if I can), and I thought that was the whole point of the site.
Some of us haven't been members forever or have the technical knowledge that some of you others have. Sometimes we need a helping hand.

That's irrelevant. Explaining how is useless and unnecessary. The fact is it is improved. Telling why won't give him, us or anyone else any advantage whatsoever. End of story.
That's like saying gravity is there because it is. Or magnets work because they do. Usually people give an explanation for their findings, so their audience have a why or how associated with the answer. I guess this is irrelevant anyway as you are clearly not in the business of helping people, you're far more interested in trying to get cheap laughs. I've wasted enough time on this, out.

Wow this community sucks
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Well, that's not a very good way to get information.
It's a slower community. It doesn't see much development anymore and a lot of people have moved on to better phones.
With the 10 or so hours between posts maybe you should have checked out the development section and the ROM Bible and n00b FAQ inside.
If there's something you can't find in those, come on back and we'll see what we can do for you. (I'll answer you to the best of my ability!)
Not trying to be a ****, but have some patience or take the initiative.

[Q] Bug free roms

Can you guys please help me find a ROM (4.x.x) that is completely bug free? I had to ask this question because I wanted to upgrade from a long time ( I am on 2.3.3 phantom rom) to ICS or JB but all I could find is either alpha or beta version of roms. Most other are direct derivatives of these buggy versions. Something does not work or something is broken in most of them from what I read. So if you can help me by suggesting some roms that I can upgrade to with out experiencing bugs that would help me. Thanks!
Seriously? In before the lock...

I am sorry but I did not get that... Are you suggesting that this is not a good question? Well can you suggest me some rom with minimum bugs at least? Thanks.
Simple and straightforward answer. There's NONE. With less bugs you should ask.
Try some, if you like keep it, if not keep trying. Doesn't hurt to do some tries and research.
But seriously: In Before The Lock. :beer:
Would like to add: wrong section.

If you want a stable and full functional JB flash FL16 o GA10
If lyou like AOSP flash a CM or AOKP flavor there are other (note there are various bugs nothing big if you can deal with it.
If you like Stock modified too many to mention one but a heard a kuban named rom is awesome.

Wow.. I'm pretty disappointed at the negative comments here.
Don't flame it is against XDA rules, no matter what the question is.
Thread moved to Q&A.
Any of the new jb leaks fk23 thru ga10 are pretty good dd if your looking for something along the lines of touchwiz based roms if you like something different then you can try out cm10.1 which Im reading has very good feed back its all about your preferences on what you do with your phone if you like playing with tweaks or if your just someone that wants a simple phone to make calls on ect ect. Theres alot of roms out there that have minimum issues my suggestion is look thru the threads check out the screenshots if it looks like something you may want to run do some light reading thru the thread and see what people are reporting as far as issues.

Sorry you feel that way.
But in the history of the e4gt forums, such threads have not been very fruitful.
Few reasons..
-A bug I experience with a particular ROM, may not be experienced by someone else.
-Something not working on a ROM such as MHL on a rom may not be a big deal for me but may be a "major" bug for someone else.
-Lastly not all developers think alike and some may not be happy when their ROM is not mentioned in such threads..
Thats why such threads are always closed by Mods in this forum. Thus all the negative comments.
Im pretty happy with the one click oden FL16, i might try out the new version. If you want working wimax stick with stock/ touchwiz roms. All ASOP, AKOP, CM10, CM10.1 roms say there 4g works. but really all it does is turn on and look like it works. You will only experience blazing speeds of 750k.

While I understand that, the better way instead of filling this thread with negative comments is to explain that. Then after that, you could report it and link to a thread discussing it :good:
I like cm10.1 right now. If you want something pretty bug free and easy to install get the fk23 or ga10 one clicks. They are pretty much test otas from what I can tell and work well. They are tw based but they got a lot of the ICS and Jb features.

[Q] Looking to port

I've found quite a few guides and tutorials for porting roms, but still kinda confused :what:. Would love to port some crazy roms to our phones. Heck, I would love to cook a rom too, but it all seems overwhelming :banghead:. Don't exactly know where to start, even though I already know about Chef Central. Is there any guides that describe things with easy to understand processes? Thanks in advanced everyone.

Take a look at the links here, not necessarily porting but they come into play with anything android
