they guys from unrevoked tweeted the response already, it dose not work.
And considering HTC's track record on updates you will have a hard time rooting again if you update to official froyo
It's up on HTC now: http://bit.ly/cCiIQu You *will* lose root. We have no root for this. Repeat: no root. Enjoy

no, but the hboot is différent, i have read and compare the code with hboot 0.80.
Guide: downgrade hboot using an older ruu and hacked misc and root again. Presto.
so it's best to stay rooted instead of updating to the official froyo?

Yes, for now I'd say. Unless you can live without root for a couple weeks

Patiently awaiting a proper custom ROM or a new hack/exploit that will allow rooting
Sup guys just got my G2 and I'm set to perm root it. Just a quick question though,
with all the different guides and the wiki which is the most thorough and safest?
I'm not new to android or rooting. I've owned and rooted a G1, N1, and a MT3GS.
So I don't necessarily need a noob guide. Which method do you say is the best?
Definetly the rage method. Visionary is quite dangerous and a lot of people ended up semi-bricking their phones. Not sure about this gfree a lot of people are talking about is.... just go with rage aka the method in the wiki.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 running Cyanogenmod.
Use the Wiki. The Wiki uses the rage exploit for temp root, then gfree to lock in that root (permanent) and to get full radio S-OFF, SuperCID and SIM unlock.

The wiki had great instructions and worked like a charm (albeit I'd already let the OTA install so I had to revert that first )

I feel like this is going to be the stupidest question but is the "wiki" you refer to the xda-developerscom/wiki?
Meaning refer to the HTC Vision section, and once inside the "Rooting the Vision (G2/DZ) and DHD" guide?

"official" updates from tmobile or any other service provider or the hardware vendor... are DANGEROUS. They may make it difficult/impossible to reroot.
Note that despite htc/tmobile having NOT provider a 2.3 image for vision, you can, nevertheless, use 2.3 on vision. Community is faster than OEM.

No, what he is saying is that you still get the OTA updates. But you will likely need to re-root if you install them.

I thought that you couldn't even receive the via an OTA. And if you did, the Clockwork Recovery would block them from installing, right?
I am a noob on Desire HD... how can i root and s-off and install clockworkmod recovery on this phone with 2.3.3 stock rom without downgrading. is it possible?
Not possible, you need to downgrade.

AGAIN, THIS DOES NOT WORK ON S-ON DEVICES !
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Gingerbreak, from what I understand, will only provide temp root. And the code to disable S-ON does not work on HTC Gingerbread. So once you reboot, All changes are rolled back.
To install ClockworkMod Recovery its needed to downgrade, root, apply ENG/S-OFF, upgrade again (2.3 strangely does not restore S-ON), Gingerbreak (If your lucky and it works), flash recovery.
EDIT: I need to start typing quicker, ghostofcain beat me to it.
I tried Gingerbreak at first. it worked. but with a reboot all of changes vanished!
is there any way to first S-Off the phone and then use the Gingerbreak without the Downgrading... Downgrading is truely a pain in the ass!
If you have lost S-OFF (back to S-ON) then no, you will have to downgrade first.
Not helping much....
No offence but I read these forums all the time and its a bit tiring when someone asks a questions and they only get half an answer and not a very helpful one at that.
Ok so you can't root the DHD running stock 2.3.3 without downgrading first.
So how about pointing the people in need of help in the right direction then?!
How do you downgrade? Is it possible?

what's the reason you don't want to downgrade?
Not sure if this has been said or not but:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/how-to-root-the-htc-desire-hd/
It's as easy as "download, run" and it works brilliantly!
I suggest you just boot a Ubuntu Live CD (it's not as bad as it sounds, I actually liked it the first time I tried it and now I have it installed by my Windows) and just run the command:
wget http://droid.neolobster.com/roms/aahk-25102011.zip && unzip aahk-25102011.zip && sudo ./hack-ace.sh

It is rootable but harder to get s-off. In order to get s-off on 2.3.4 you need to downgrade with a fairly technical process and then use unrevoked.

So, did I screw up? I reflashed to stock 2.2 in order to fix a few issues. I got the OTA message to update and I did, so now I'm on 2.3.4 with no way to re-root because I can't turn s-off. Would it be safe to use the unrevoked s-off forever tool or should I go with the gingerbreak.apk method. I feel like an idiot for updating, so take it easy on me... LOL! Thanks in advance.

The method in the link above is the only way to root an incredible on android 2.3.4 that is s-on. Your best bet would be to find a friend with a pc and try it again.

I also was successful in rooting my Inc using the older version of Unrevoked in this thread (version 3.22 I believe). I stopped before doing the full downgrade and S-OFF... I haven't decided if that is worth the hassle or not.

Kind of a pointless video. Of course you can root 2.3.4 if your already s-off. That is the whole point of being s-off, so if newer firmware comes out that isnt supported by unrevoked or other rooting programs, you can still easily get root by flashing a custom recovery thru hboot and the su binary thru recovery, and your fully rooted again.
