[Q] Help rooting desire cdma 2.2 - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Im wishing to root my HTC Desire CDMA but im having quiet the issue. Im running v2.2 and HBOOT 1.06 and s-on using Windows. I've tried using unrEVOked3, z4root, and SuperOneClick, and Universal Androot but I've received absolutely no luck. So my question is, is there anyone out there running the same specs as me and have accomplished my wish?!?!?!

1.06 hasn't been rooted and is unlikely to be

is there anyway of downgrading either v2.2 or Hboot to one that is compatable? Or there is away to turn s-off allowing me to disable NAND? Could you correctly tell me how to remove HTC Sync?

don't think you can downgrade. If it was a GSM phone then there are ways but no idea on CDMA phones. Think you're stuck until HTC unlock the bootloaders (assuming they do)

[Q] S-OFF on CDMA Desire after root?

Ok I have a cellular south htc desire that I rooted several months ago via unrevoked. Root was successful, but I did not gain s off ability. Not really a problem till now. I am trying to use firerats custom partion with miui or cyanogen, but neither flashes seem to take. After doing some research, I think it is because I still have s-on and I am not allow to write custom partions to memory.
Anyway, does anyone know of a way to get s-off after the CDMA desire has been rooted? I tried unrevoked again, but it didn't work with a nonstock rom. I am sick of these low memory errors, and am hating HTC for not including a little more system memory.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
Apparently only certain radio version get S-OFF using unrEVOked, as to which I don't know

[Q] HTC BEE No root?

Spent almost 6 hours yesterday trying to figure out how to root the htc wilfire (Bee), but was unable to because alltel out dumbed me by branding their phone. Any known workarounds?
Super one click 1.5.5 seems to give a root. I havent been able to get a recovery flashed yet though.

Bee = Buzz / Wildfire for Verizon
http://news.softpedia.com/news/HTC-Bee-En-Route-to-Verizon-Leaked-ROM-Emerges-160263.shtml
I have the HTC Bee(Wildfire) for Bluegrass Cellular. When trying unrevoked it says device "bee" not supported. I did use super one click and got it to root and install superuser. I mainly want root for wifi tether which seems to work, but I would like to install custom roms like I do on my Evo (Evo is personal phone, Wildfire is work phone). The Clockwork mod says it flashed, but when rebooting into recovery its the standard useless recovery. I also tried to install a VPN app requiring root and it says Busybox missing, root access denied even though when it prompted for superuser access I hit allow. So I think Super One Click is semi rooting the devices but not completely. I tried to unroot and it hangs on Removing Superuser.apk. I want to start fresh with it and do the Shell Root instead of the other root via S.O.C. Anyone else had any luck with the "Bee" Wildfires?
From here:

Some devices have a NAND lock. SuperOneClick will only give a Shell root until you remove this lock.
The following phones can use http://unrevoked.com to remove this lock:
* Sprint EVO 4G (HTC Supersonic)
* Droid Incredible (HTC Incredible)
* HTC Desire GSM
* HTC Desire CDMA (HTC BravoC)
* HTC Aria
* Droid Eris (HTC DesireC)
* HTC Wildfire (HTC Buzz)

It appears as though this NAND lock also applies to the Alltel HTC Wildfire (HTC Bee) . Unfortunately, unrevoked does not yet run on the Bee.
Get me a rom update utility. I can get us a permanant root. I'm just slightly scared of not being able to boot my phone, and would like a way to reverse it. Current version is 1.07.671.2.
Thanks!
I was able to root my htc wildfire "bee" phone from alltel using the z4 root by ryanza. Seems to be the only rooting that works. Ive been unable to find any custom roms for it though, or if theres any roms that work for it at all.

Hi try to root my htc bee and I'm like a brick indicates that the only way to get serious with a GoldCard but I can not have access to create it. I say it is possible to obtain GoldCard other similar equipment but no one has this model here. Someone could give their goldcrad to get my htc bee. Please Please sorry for my English
I heard an app called Z4root is able to root the "bee", but I'm not sure.

I unable to root my "BEE" with unrevoked. How did you do it? Any RUU available for the Bee? Thank you so much!
you could try to see if htcdev supports the bee, if it does then you would be able to permroot, recovery, roms the lot

I'm not really sure he could get a recovery and ROMs, since you can't use buzz stuff on the bee.

So there is no available RUU or methods to root the Bee as of this time ?

[Q] Help Rooting/downgrading CDMA Desire with HBOOT 1.06

I have looked all over XDA, as well as Google, but I've been unable to find and answer. From my research, I've found that with my HBOOT version - 1.06 - my phone is unrootable. What I haven't seen is anyone trying to downgrade the HBOOT to .9x. My phone was rooted with this version, but for some reason unrEVOked 3.32 didn't turn the security off. Now I'm stuck with the sh*tty stock HTC Sense rom. I have tried installing a Alltel (I have US Cellular) 2.1 recovery rom, to no avail. Is it possible to downgrade the HBOOT, with rooting? I understand that the unEVOked team is working on a fix, but I'm getting impatient. (I don't blame them, they are doing this out of the goodness of heart in their spare time. Anything they do - and have done - is greatly appreciated.) I want to install an aftermarket rom so I can underclock the CPU and save battery, as well as free up some space for apps.
im having the same issue with my new desire =[
No. You can't downgrade, you can't use another carrier (that's what CDMA is all about), you can't do anything. You have to wait for a fix.
Damn. i cant wait for Unrevoked to find a way...
/sigh
If only I lived in Europe, where the GSM carriers don't suck @ss. I've noticed the GSM Desire owners have a lot more activity then their CDMA cousins. I should have known better then to use an official HTC roms to upgrade. I made the same mistake with jailbreaking my iPod Touch, a few times.

[q] rooting htc desire 2.2 froyo hboot 1.06

Just thought I would make a new thread on here so someone could help. I have searched for HOURS trying to find a why and even tried combining some methods with the same end result. :-( Surely between us... "the world wide web" we can find a way. I'm not a genius but I learn very quickly. Any help is greatly appreciated. So far it says it can't be done, but I have faith that we are better than that. So what do you think?
My desire has the updated android 2.2 with the new hboot 1.06 not rooted and s-on.
hi there,
head over to http://revolutionary.io/ and s-off your device, (make sure you have USB debugging selected in settings on your phone, and when asking for your beta key select: Desire CDMA, and select your 1.06 hboot), then download the superuser from http://goo-inside.me/superuser/su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip and flash that in recovery
if you need any help pm me
I have tried that. One of the requirements is that it must be rooted. I can not root my phone using Revolutionary because it is not supported yet. You can S-off the desire Hboot 1.06 but I cannot find ways to root and you must be rooted before you s-off to my knowledge. Please correct me if I am wrong. I will try again though. Thank you.
Unrevoked 3 runes through everything PERFECT until the very end. It says Desire was a TRIUMPH and under that then states "internal error nand root?" I just want to root this so i can flash and install cyanogen 7.
Your device does not need to be rooted to run revolutionary,and it is supported I checked
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
When I do that it gets stuck at waiting for fast boot.......
done.. had to do it a bit tricky but good to go now. fully rooted with s-off running cyanogen 7.0.3

S-off help

S-off okay I've searched the forums and can't figure this out I've had a rooted Inc for a year now I had it unrooted for about 2 weeks before using unrevoked too root and install cwm but my hboot is set to s-on this hasn't been a problem until I tried to update cmw it won't install via hboot or rom manager. So I need to get to s off I'm running cm7 latest nightly. I see htc has unlocked the boot loader for the Inc today will this help me? And I rooted my brother's phone at the same time and his is set to s off this is why I'm confused...

Where did you see that the incredibles bootloader had beed unlocked by htc?
Unrevoked shold have given you s-off also.
What android version are you on?
What radio (baseband) version are you on.
EDIT: I see that htc has unlocked the incredibled bootloader, so yes you can just use that to get s-off.
