Ok, ok, ok.. So many of you are instantly going to jump on the new guy because this thread has probably been posted at least a million times today. Thing is, trying to find an explanation, an easy explanation, of how to root my HTC Hero G3, without using developers lingo is nigh on impossible. Would someone have mercy and please, for the sake of the Gods and my sanity.. HELP ME ROOT ME BLOODY PHONE??? Please
What do I need to download?
Can I still use the android operatin system after gaining root access or do I have to install a custom ROM?
Many many thanks in advance for any help or advice given.

Firstly its called the HTC Hero, the G2 is the T-Mobile branding not G3, why don't you go in the Hero section then the rom development sub forum, guides at the top in the wiki in plain english...
Advice appreciated man, I kinda thought I'd get someone telling me that. Thing is, I tried all three of the rooting guides up there and none of them work. Checked the USB Debugging box.. then windows searches for ADB, then my problems begin.
Dear All,
I have had my Magic from Vodafone Egypt for almost a year and i really am bored as i cannot get it rooted.
I have tried many ways suggested on the site but Failed.
Would anyone be kind enough to help me by giving me instructions.
Thank you Very Much
download universalandroot from the market, install, run it and do what it says.
Rooting the HTC magic
Well, for me rooting was the easy bit, just go to this link:
theunlockr.com/2009/08/29/how-to-root-the-htc-magic-in-one-click
read the instructions and watch the video and you are good to go... worked for me without a hitch.
My problem is finding a new rom with arabic support. Let me know if you have any.
How is this theme related???

Hi all i'm new here and have just bought a desire z. I need help on perm rooting the device the simplest way possible because i want to install custom ROMS.

I've tried to do many rooting tutorials but i chickened out at the end plus the terminal part was difficult any help would be appreciated thank you very much Mods: i hope i'm in the right section
You're in the right section but quite frankly the best way to do it is the follow the guide , I did it with NO prior experience and it worked flawlessly just follow the guide on the desire z page of cyanogen wiki I would link but on my iPod ATM

hello guys, im a happy new member of the desire community .
I have came from a Sony Ericsson Xperia x8, which i a little different in terms of modding your roms and radios... I have looked around the threads for a while now and not really found anything what answers my question, so sorry if there maybe a duplicate don't burn me if there is i have tried.
I know how to root my phone and the recovery installation as i had an old HTC wildfire what i broke but am not familiar with unlocking and flashing bootloaders hence why i need your help.
But i would like some help or answers regarding my HTC so here we go...
Well first of all the HTC is locked onto the orange network, i am currently on three so how could i get my phone unlocked... possibly free?
Also when i get my HTC unlocked if i flash things like new radios, roms, bootloaders ETC... will my phone remain unlocked or become locked again?
Also what is the first rom i should try out? I would want a fast one whats stable but maybe perhaps android 4.0 or above, can you guys give me some suggestions please thanks.
Ps: Sorry for the wall of text i want to make sure i get things right and don't brick my phone in the process of unlocking. :fingers-crossed:
Hey m8. Welcome I'm also new, but for our needs this page is the best, therefore i highly recommend to read this both threads, i flashed a custom ROM yesterday, so I'm very new in this, too xD

Thanks for the help both of you I appreciate it
However i would like to know if i updated my radio after the unlock or install another hboot would my phone become locked again?
Thanks for helping
I guess not, but otherwise, if it is locked after flashing or other things: you can unlock your Desire very fast with the first thread in my first post i edited my first post and added some additional Infos for you.

Okay thankyou mate im gettingmy phone hopefully this weekend i just have to mod it, but know what im doing.
Hello guys, im newbie in roms and all the phones stuff so please dont criticise I have a HTC Desire Z with Android 2.2. My question here is how to update it to newer? 4.4.4 would be awesome, i want newest i can. I found some posts on couple of forums about this but every was like "format, flash, update, boooom done". Can anyone tell me how to do it from begining? I mean how to format it the way it should be, how to flash, what do i need etc.
Also i found this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1374927
Is it good? I know i shouldnt ask what rom should i pick, im just asking is it good to use on this phone.
Thanks in advance
Hi,
The second post in this thread will help you understand the initial process
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2348266
You need to use gfree to exploit and root if you want radio s-off which is the only way you should root this phone. And be sure to read through all those links to understand fully first, I know it may be overwhelming but it is important.
As for best ROM, we don't make suggestions in xda but the third and forth post will link you to every to available. Gingerbread runs the best overall but there are many ICS and jb ROMs that work almost as well (some will say better) and KitKat has come a long way where many will find that it suffice for daily use.
You'll have to try a few, make backups, try a few more to see what works best for you
If you get stuck somewhere just ask in that thread and many are there to jump in and help
Best of luck!
