I have a HTC Desire Z.
Android Version 2.2.
Can someone please link me to the "best" (simplest/easiest) way to root my phone? I know basically nothing about this apart from what I've read on here, which at times gets confusing. I am after a tutorial for everything...ie, to install a new ROM etc. Would be appreciated.
Thanks
Follow this guide carefully step by step and you will be ok:

I'm a beginner with Desire Z too (used to own a Galaxy S) and found this guide is easy enough.
I believe the guide in the Wiki is the most reliable. At least that's what I've heard from most.

Read up on everything Will help you understand things in the future.
I'm trying to work through the tutorials but i've downloaded and installed a JDK but i can't install the android sdk because it says it can't find the jdk.

Did you install the JDK? If yes then this is a bug with the installer, just press back and then next again, it will pass this message and install the SDK.

yeh i found that out after a search a while ago. i installed the SDK etc and went to the first step of that tutorial above i said i was doing where it says to enter the code to check the INFOCID. i have no idea where to input that code. Looks like a lot more reading is in order
I was hoping to get this done today, but still don't seem to be getting anywhere.
I cant install the windows usb drivers, and i've downloaded so many things because each tutorial links to a different tutorial, that i have lost track of what i have and what i dont have, or where i am in the tutorial.

Just follow the Wiki guide in order. Go to the HTC website and click support and find your device. Download the program called HTC Sync. When you download that program, it will download the drivers needed also.
You must enter in all the code from the command prompt. Click start on your computer, then type in "cmd" in the search bar, and click on it. It should pop up with a black prompt. It should have some words already up there, mine says "C:\Users\Sam", that means that folder is my current directory and I would have to move all the files I just downloaded to that folder. So lets say I want to change that current directory, then I would type in "cd " followed by the path of the folder. For example, I would say "cd C:\Users\Sam\Documents\HTCDesireZ\RandomFolder". Then the folder "RandomFolder" is my new path and I put all my downloaded files in there.
I have enabled USB Debugging, but when i type adb devices, no devices show up. I have done the other steps correctly. I think it may have something to do with another tutorial i did which made me turn off automatically installing hardware/updates (i think). Not sure how i turned it off though lol. Anyone know what im talking about and how i turn it back on?
argh changed it back and still not working. although when my computer tried updating the driver, it said it failed
also when i open HTC Sync, it doesn't detect my phone
So it's almost 5am. Been struggling with what seems like an intermittent problem with HTC Sync for hours now. It just doesn't want to detect my phone.
I've tried practically all of the methods in this thread:
http://androidforums.com/desire-support-troubleshooting/64808-htc-sync-cant-find-my-phone-3.html
If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open to them.
Cheers

Just follow closely the tutorial that in my post above, it should include everything you need. For the driver, you can google HTC Sync and install it, after that you will have the drivers you need for you phone.
EDIT: just saw your post, do you have another computer to try on it again?

i do have access to another computer, however it is not convenient for me to do this on another computer. It seems this is a known problem. I am using Windows 7 32bit.
Anyone got any advice for the HTC Sync problem?
this is my device manager. im guessing it shouldn't have the exclamation mark?

basicly ive upgraded this unit and now have no gsm ive downloaded the software that i was advised but nothing works says files are corrupt or damaged , sometimes the link doesnt work . i need the factory rom for the orange spv m2000 i think can anybody help me pls
thanks.
since it seems to be the old problem, there was no need to open a new thread, you could have bumped the old one.
also, the answer is still the same. you can find shipped roms at http://xplode.tk
the fact that the wm2003 rom, offered in my tut thread, is corrupt, is aready known. i will fix that some time.

you cannot just download and double click it, i thought that was self explanatory. you need to right click the exe and extract it, in it you will find the ruu and the roms, then you take a custom ruu, like the Chef_Tony RUU from my signature and use that to flash.
also, since you are using windows 7 to flash the device, you need to install another driver and deactivate usb connections in wmdc. use d-two's tutorial on windows 7 flashing here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5456317&postcount=6
or simply use a windows xp computer and follow the tutorial in my signature.
ts ts, just doubleclicking the exe, if it was that easy, there would be no need for a 30 step tutorial
i had extracted the files to a folder .. anyways ive got more picks to show this error . after doing what was said .

done everything the pdf asked with success yet i still cant extract my orange rom as pictures above show.
you didn't do everything from the instructions, you are still using BAupgradeut.exe.
you were supposed to use MAupgradeut_noID.exe.
also, i don't see the TEST MODE watermark on your desktop, which can mean several things:
1. you use windows 7 32 bit and everything went fine
2. you use windows 7 64 bit and removed the watermark already, also fine
3. something went wrong during the installation or you skipped a step.
you should straighten these 2 things out before attempting to continue.
also you should put the device into bootloader mode before flashing, charge the battery to 100% and remove both the sim and sd card, just a general advice, i don't know, if you already did that.
the problem, the ruu gives you, however, is not solvable with any of the tips given above. the extrom from the rom you downloaded, seems to be corrupt. the extrom is the file called ms_.nbf and contains carrier-related cab files like a custom wallpaper, dialer skin and other useless stuff. here are some ways to get rid of that problem:
1. resize the partitions using mtty and flash without the extrom:
1.1 with a full battery and without sim and sd card, put the device into bootloader mode
1.2 disable usb connections in the wmdc
1.3 start mtty (look it up in the wiki or through google)
1.4 select wceusb or usb, 115200-8-1-N-N-N, press ok
1.5 hit enter, so it shows USB>
1.6 type task 28aa
now, the partitions are back to factory defaults, close mtty and disconnect the device, still in bootloader mode
1.7 delete the ms_.nbf or move it to another folder
1.8 in bootloader mode, start the ruu and flash the rom and the radio rom.
method 2 is easier:
2. crc errors appear during corrupt downloads, maybe your connection speed fluctuated, maybe you use a wi-fi connection which swallowed a bit or two, or the file was actually corrupt to begin with, try another mirror, or maybe even another rom, there are many different english wm2003 roms at xplode's archive, your carrier is not important.
2.1 flash it using maupgrade, bootloader mode, without cards...
followed you last instruction to the letter and all is GOOD
thank very much
Hiya guys!
I have a HTC DHD running 2.3.3, when i try to root my phone with AMT v1.8.5 tool, tool starts correctly but then i get a message Device is NOT connected! Please connect the USB cable and try again! I'm not sure which causes this problem, though i can access my phone SD card when i select USB Storage Mode, but this tool requires Charge Only Mode. USB Debugging was enabled. My OS is Windows 7 x64

Have you got the Android SDK installed on your computer?
You might want to try factory resetting your phone too. Although it seems like a driver problem. Try installing the Android SDK and HTC Sync. Then restart your computer and see what happens.
Have you got .NET framework 4.0 installed?
Also you must remember to exit the HTC Sync tray icon
And disable fastboot on your phone (settings/power - if i remember right)
I have .NET framework 4.0 installed but not HTC sync, how do I install SDK tools?
I never had SDK installed when I rooted mine. Not sure if your problems aren't caused by Windows 7. Can you run AMT in compatibility mode for XP and see what happens

It didn't help to run it as compability mode, still not recognizing my phone in charge only mode...
Did you install HTC Sync? Install it and then shut it down. Make sure fastboot is disabled on your phone. Enable USB debugging and also try enabling allow install programs from unknown sources. And try running AMT again.

I got it work, but i have to downgrade my firmware first, it installed GingerBreak v1.2 automatically to my phone, but when i run GingerBreak v1.2 it just keeps rooting and nothing happens.....how i can downgrade?
I have to root my phone with GingerBreak v1.2 before i can downgrade but GingerBreak v1.2 is not working in my phone...i'm out of ideas...
You could maybe try using jkoljo's guide to downgrading and using that. Then rooting using AMT.

When i try to start adb.exe it opens command prompt and then bunch of codes appears then it just closes, though its resource stays in taskmanager....i tried to run adb.exe in compability mode too but no luck, i even tried to run it on my external hard drive but no luck...and i ran it as admin but no luck...
I managed to get adb running correctly, and then i started to follow downgrade tutorial, but i'm so confused right now:
Connect Desire HD to a computer. Charge only, USB Debugging enabled!
Open up a cmd and go to Downgrade folder, execute commands:
How do i go to downgrade folder with adb??
It depends where your downgrade folder is. If its on the c drive then type cd "folder name"
Where folder name is the name of the folder containing your downgrade folder. Then type the commands as per the guide.

I don't know what to suggest. I have an unbranded DHD with CID HTC_01. I'm guessing yours was branded. Did you make a goldcard? I'm all out of suggestions. Although now you can ask in the ops thread.

Make sure you've made a GoldCard!

The guy's voice pisses me off, but he's still a champion for making the video.

Try flashing the Eng Hboot. And perm root.
Then afterwards try to change the cid.
I tried to flash MIUI to my DHD and now my phone won't start anymore, it just shows that red animated MIUI ANDROID thing and won't go to my start screen....how do i get my phone back to business????
Please help me!! I can't even shutdown my phone!
Remove the battery.
Did you install rom manager from the market?
You need this to flash a custom recovery in order to flash a new rom.
Are you certain you acheived root yet?
Im not sure exactly how far along the process you are, but you could try using the Advanced Ace hack kit HERE

Requirements
Operating System: Windows XP with .NET 2.0, Windows Vista, Windows 7

Changelog
v12.02.23.2
1. Fixed deadlock when app starts without ADB server already running, added start-up status window.
2. Automatically scan for devices after installing drivers.
v12.02.23
Initial Release
Summary
This tool allows you to try out different recoveries very easily. I was frustrated with the different methods for downloading and installing different recoveries and didn't like that there wasn't really a central place to find them so I wrote this tool to use ADB and Fastboot to very quickly switch between them. This tool is very far from done and more features and probably a complete overhaul are at some point in the near future.
Bugs
1. Cannot select between different devices although it appears to allow you to do so. It might flash to a different phone if you have more than one hooked up in fastboot mode.
2. Doesn't actually check to see if the phone is an Inc 2.
3. Sometimes the recoveries get unlocked even though the phone isn't in fastboot mode, if you click one of them fastboot.exe will wait on the phone forever and freeze the program.
Upcoming Improvements
1. Much improved download size.
2. Ability to try recoveries before flashing them.
3. Threaded device state monitoring - gets rid of prompts and keeps the app from freezing.
4. Ability to select between multiple devices.
5. Eventually a better GUI.
6. More consistency throughout the program.
Reserved for future use.
im gonna try this now, thanks

Thanks for pointing out the bug. It was the middle of the night and I was tired, didn't think to try to start the app without ADB already running. Should be fixed now in the first post.
still not working for me same problem
OP,
Are we supposed to manually install the drivers? If so, the x64 drivers will not install, even when run as administrator.
I am also getting the same result with the new files. I even tried killing and starting adb to no avail.

Start ADB before running the program and let me know if that works. I did find the problem you were having and solved it on my end. Do you see a window that says "Starting ADB . . ." when you run the program? If not, make sure you're running the current version.

Make sure your phone is plugged in before installing the drivers. You might need to uninstall other drivers first or you might not need to install the drivers at all. Does it find your phone if you just skip the driver installation?
Still no go on two different computers both Win7 x64... If I try to install the drivers separately it says that the drivers cannot be installed.
Edit: Upon further investigation, I tried to manually install again by directing the device manager to the EXACT file and this is what I get.

You shouldn't have to install the drivers just to get the program to open. Can you describe exactly what's happening?

Alright, removed the download link. Guess I'll have to setup a VM to figure this out. It works for me with the included drivers OR the "My HTC" drivers and I'm not having any issues with the app freezing so it must be something about this setup.

I did not use Bin4ry tool for long time but i guess it is shown in the window how to do the root
it is super easy to use don,t worry
and for the wifi issue i had it in my tab
you will see a cable connected to a sort of sticker it is golden colored
the wifi is poor because the gold cable is probably cutted

Dear Adnan,
I search whole web and found that you are the only one who claim to root Xtouch x817 tablet. If this is correct, would you like to describe it further (how you do that). Actually i have 2 piece of this tablet and both looks bricked to me. i want to know how i can restore them on factory settings.

Hey, well it was pretty straight forward. the table uses no security methods or whatsoever like locked bootloaders etc. so we can root it using any generic tool. for example. Bin4ry root tool .which is the one i used .
I did alot of searches and saw people use generic android drivers . the trick was. download generic drivers using any android managing tool such as moborobo or Wondershare MobileGo for android. then let it install the drivers . and then you need to navigate to
c:\windows\users\{your user}\.android\
inside it you will find this file "adb_usb.ini"
If not then make one.
type this in it 0x2207 and save the file
then enabled USB Debugging
and opened bin4ry and rooted it using that tool
the hard part is to get the drivers working. thats it
about your bricked device, check their site
to download the firmware and the tool. they got a really good manual to restore the tablet

Thanks for the advice, I checked the product website and am still with stand empty hands. The XTouch (UAE) website remove this model & its support. The Nigerian website has this model but they don't provide any support, infect their support page does not exist (beyond the link).

Thanks for the advice, I checked the product website and am still with stand empty hands. The XTouch (UAE) website remove this model & its support. The Nigerian website has this model but they don't provide any support, infect their support page does not exist (beyond the link).

I just checked the UAE site. and yeah apperantly they removed the device . pretty bad, but i think if you contacted the support they may give you the link to the download site ( it is in Chinese so i don,t really think you will find it in ease)
I had the files before but the HDD the contains them died.

I'm a new newbie and I cant post directly in downloaded rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-nexus/development/rom-carbonrom-kitkat-t2635637
I want to instal a new Rom on my device but I cant 'cause it doesn't have memory card slot and windows 8 didn't recognize my device
How can I copy the files on my deivce?
Anyone can help me to fix this problem?
you probably need to update your recovery img version, easiest way is using fastboot or a toolkit, like wugfresh toolkit(Google wugfresh Gnex it will come right up)
you need to install the drivers.for windows to recognize galaxy nexus as attached, wugfresh can do THAT for you as well.
although I'm a proponent of using manual methods like adb/fastboot, wugfresh can help get you started in the right direction
Wugfresh
First of all , thanks for quick reply.
You're right.My recovery img is old and didn't update since about a year and a half.
I install wugfresh but when I run the program, that doesn't recognize the device.
When I connect the mobile to laptop, I heard a sound about plug a USB Device.
The Mobile phone is on bootloader....
and becaue I didn't know device build number, I click Auto Detect Device + Build....
But doesmn't happen anything
if you aren't worried about losing any user data, first flash a factory stock image which will put device back to out of box state, then you can pick which build and such,
or, before that, do a quick google search for "xda, galaxy nexus, windows 8.1 driver issue" I think I recall someone having similar issues and getting them resolved and the thread should have the info you need in it.
let us know if you find the info you need.
Wugfresh
I Use wugfresh (Nexus Root Toolkit)
Before that , I installed the adb drivers and also change my o.s from Win8 to win XP.
but I see this error while repairing my phone : (the attached file)
I'm so confused...
I didn't what to do...
Install the adb and fastboot drivers.
EDIT: Use the "Full Driver Installation Guide"
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Free mobile app

I'm trying....
I Couldn't
I even try this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
It doesn't recognise my phone.
I feel dumb!
Let me explain my problem by photos :
I run nexus Root Toolkit
In advanced utilities , click on "Launch"
In apperaed window , "Boot Temporary" , I click on "Custom Recovery", then I must browse the file "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-maguro.img"
After browse the file , this Message Appear : Reebooting your device into bootloader . . .
Then after afew secondes , This message blowes my mind : Fastboot Device Was Not Found . . . .
Also in other parts of Nexus Root Toolkit I have the same problem....
Is there anyway to solv ethis problem?
I would recommend removing the drivers that are installed. it seems that the wrong ones, or maybe something just "borked" with them, happened on original install.
when you plug in device, go into device manager, should be able to right click on your device and uninstall drivers.
then I recommend putting device in bootloader mode. plug in, and see if it installs the drivers automatically for you.
there should also be an.option in wug to "install drivers" I think.
(in your pictures, window on the right side, "Full Driver install....", long button on the top)
::::TRY THIS FIRST::::
I just noticed that you have chosen ICS for model/OS. it is probably trying to use the old fastboot binary for it or something, change that and try 4.2 or even 4.3, you could also try 4.1 but I'm thinking the 4.2or4.3 choice will work for you.

do you KNOW how to manually put phone into bootloader/fastboot mode correct?
if not, from powered down state, hold power, volume up, and volume down, all at the same time for a few seconds, it will vibrate, and bring up the bootloader.
I know on my machine, I befoee had to uninstall drivers, then plugged device in while in bootloader mode, and waited as it installed automatically the correct drivers needed.
A million times thanks to you.............................
You saved me
You're my hero....

no problem at all buddy! happy to help!
can I ask what exactly solved it do you know?
also, if issue is resolved, if you can edit your initial post's thread title to say [SOLVED] in front so others know the issue is resolved and others looking for the info provided with the same issue can easily find the fix/steps if needed.
(I don't know if you use tapatalk for forum browsing, but you may have to edit the title of thread via web browser)
if you need anything else feel free to ask here or PM!
I think my problem returns to install drivers.
After your last guide, I removed drivers and for install drivers, I use from Nexus Root Toolkit....
Just one Question :
For last time : How Can I add "Solved" to topic title?
I didn't find any button to do that...

go to your initial post, there should be button below it that says "edit" or similar. click that, then you probably have to click "go advanced" or "advanced edit" or something like that, I think then you will be able to edit the post title.
if not it's not THAT important
