If you have S-OFF you can use GingerBreak - GINGERBREAK LINK
If not, you need to downgrade! ... DOWNGRADE LINK
after downgrading, you can then upgrade to 2.3.3

Why can't the new HBOOT from OTA froyo be rooted

Hi all,
Sorry if this questions been answered already.
But why is everyone saying that the new HBOOT is unable to be rooted.
Is it locked down, and how?
Or just it hasn't been done yet?
Thanks for all info, and explanations

It can be now, via downgrading to 0.80
Ok it can be downgraded, but why can't the newest one be rooted?

Is this an unanswerable question?

Cause the exploit that was used in the older hboot was fixed and no-one has found a new one yet. Be our guest if you want to find one

Well as a slight noob, it's way over my head, but you know, "the only stupid question is the one not asked".
And I guess the answer from that its it just hasn't been done yet.
Thank you

If your using a newer software version, you may have to downgrade before you can root.

If you have stock rom 1.7x you have to downgrade it. There are some guides on how to do that in the developer part of the desire hd forum

Ok. Thank you. Is there q method that I should be looking for in particular? Found ten different ways to do it. Many thanks
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Use the method that is in sticky roll up thead in android development subforum.
Ok. Thanks again....much appreciated. Sorry for all the questions. Is there a Rom available with a workable version of 2.3 available? Or will the DHD be getting the upgrade. Find the phone has a lot of stuff in it I don't need and I think its creating a lag. Thanks again

wow mate, bit of patience hey? 80 minutes between 1st and 2nd post!
if you're S-OFF already, the way to root that I know is to downgrade to 1.32 then run the visionary tool: http://android.modaco.com/topic/320722-19-nov-r14-visionary-one-click-root/

Thank you very much for your help
I used the ACE Kit yesterday to get from v2.3.5 to v2.3.3 and rooted. Simple and straightforward if you follow the instructions and have patience.

If you downgrade to froyo and your phone is running gingerbread, you will mess the bootloader. If you way to achieve root use the Hack Kit...there's no other player in town for your device.

read this and follow it to a T. If you mess up your phone it's because you didn't read it and skipped instructions or assumed with things. Remember, you are altering your phone, it is not OUR problem when things go wrong
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1259821
are you sure it's good for build 2.37?
