Hi
After some advice a friend has ask me to root their desire and when I tried to boot into recovery the following symbol came up! Has anyone come across this before? I have also attached the boot screen in case this helps. Thanks

I think that's the stock recovery.

Cool so there should be no issue rooting with unrevoked

Yeah that's just the stock recovery.. to be honest I don't see why people still use unrevoked if they're gonna change roms anyway... might as well s-off with revolutionary, back up and then flash.. its quicker too, and you get the bonus of s-off which makes "fixing" things A LOT easier.
Thanks for confirming, as for rooting with unrevoked it is the way I am happy doing it especially as this was only my 2nd go

So 2.2 can't be rooted yet?

Not yet. The thread I pointed you to will be changed as soon as a root is made available.

We just got a used Desire and after using it for a day, it suddenly went into a boot loop. We can't boot into the ROM, we can't boot into recovery, it just crashes and restarts. We can only reach the H-boot. The phone is S-ON and on a stock HTC ROM. How can we fix this? Also, it might be covered by warranty, should we contact the store to see if they'll fix it?
What exactly happens when you try to get into recovery?

Is there ever going to be a different root method for this phone? I have tried the taco root method a dozen times on two different computers but I always get the same failure. I believe I am doing it right it just won't work. Sorry if this is a dumb question just frustrated at this point.

I don't know what forum you posted to, but I just recently rooted and achieved S-Off with my Dinc2 using the tacoroot method and revolutionary. It took me 10 hours to finally get it and after successfully getting temporary root with tacoroot the trick I found was to run revolutionary and WAIT. Even though each time I ran revolutionary I got the message that read "FAILED! Go make some lemonade" after I waited maybe 20 minutes (while furiously searching for other root methods) the pink "S-OFF" message appeared in my bootloader on its own.

I never made it to the revolutionary stage but maybe I will try the same thing and just keep trying it. I'm about ready to just send my phone off to some one that would like to root it for me

Use the hack kit or flash a ruu (ruu will keep you s-off if not mistaken.) Check the hack kit to see if that will work for you.

Generally, "best ROM" threads get shut down. Because every user has different needs and every phone (even the same model) is slightly different, the answer is always to try them out for yourself. And, please don't bump.
