Ok so I need help rooting my branded HTC desire running 2.2
I'm not a fan of the gold card method and I have been trying unrEVOked to no avail.
I have uninstalled HTC sense and any program that may interfere with my HTC when in boot loader.
My phone will lose communication with my computer when trying to ready hboot.
I'm at my wits end. HELP
Thanks

Don't have the link but you need hboot drivers. I thought you could find the on unrevoked site.

Those are the drivers you need
Not letting me post hyperlinks so just copy paste into browser.
you need to turn usb debugging on and ensure u run the program as administrator
1. Before you do anything, uninstall htc-sync from your pc but do not uninstall the driver.
2. Install the H-boot driver from unrevoked site. (run the installation as administrator)
3. Enable usb debugging mode on your Desire.
4. Connect the Desire to your PC.
5. Run unrevoked and wait untill finish.
6. After rooting is done, you can have your HTC-Sync back if you want it.

How can I gain access to the android market
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Is there no market icon or does it just FC?
If there is no icon you need to flash the Gapps.
There's no apps affiliated will google whatsoever. I flahed the cyanogen mod 7 successfully.
Could you please explain what gapps are and where I can find them and how to install thanks in advance

gapps are the google apps what are missing from your phone

I've been trying to root my phone with no luck. I used the un revoked method that they have at un lock r but it didn't detect my phone. I've tried on both windows and ubuntu better will detect my phone.

Have you installed the proper drivers? Is USB debugging turned on?
Yea I followed the steps exactly.

You did install the Hboot drivers correct? And uninstalled doubletwist or Htc Sync.
http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/lib/e...unrevoked.com/recovery/android-usb-driver.zip
Yea I installed the drivers. Htc sync and double twist were never installed.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I'm pretty sure you need to install htc sync first and then uninstall it to get the driver so your comp actually sees the phone. Try doing that.

Ok I'll try that

When you connect your phone via usb cable and you put in debugging mode....you should see your phone in device manger of Windows.
Debugging mode is a special setting. It's not the same as sync mode. I only say this to re clarify. This process should be straight forward.

Yea there really us no messing up the Unrevoked method. ITS got to be the driver. I would suggest you make sure you see your phone in device manager first.... can you post the link for the method you are using
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Thanks playa your idea about the driver helped me fix this. I needed to install the drivers two times once in hboot usb mode and once after I rebooted the phone.

You might be better off posting your question here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=895208
I had the same issue when I tried using unrevoked. When prompted for permission to look for a newer version of the adb software click not at this time and then click next/ ok to proceed with the install. Once the adb software is installed unrevoked should detect your phone and you should be able to continue.
All rite thank you ill do that

chances r the root didnt successfully install. so your recovery image wont b there. make sure u have the bootloader usb drive installed on your pc, unknown sources is on, along with usb debug. then retry. another thing that happenbed to me was i tryed to root using administrator and it wouldnt work. i then retried as a standard user and had no problems. follow those instruxctions and retry

I'm pretty sure that uses ADB, so it might not help the OP.
OP, do a battery pull and re insert. Then connect the DHD directly to a PC. Then you should be able to enter fastboot. From there you should be able to flash an RUU (and relock the boot loader if required)
