check IRC alot faster than just sitting around waiting here.

On top of that, unrevoked forever now has an s-on tool, if you ever need to take it in for warranty work. Awesome!

I have no way of getting onto it, could you post any updates you find important? that would be great.

Like I said in another thread: "So from what I'm understanding is the new way to root the droid 2 is the same exploit that works for the evo and will work.
Here's the thread for the droid 2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=764950
So from what I understand is if you follow those instructions it should work."

Hopefully I can try this out tomorrow

i was able to get to the # prompt.... but am stuck there. i am unable to cp files... cp is not found. any ideas?

Excellent news!!!!

that gives you root access, but its not nand unlock so you cant access /system (from what i gather from IRC)
after the # the steps are completely different. at this point you have to mod some stuff and RUU to 2.1 and then root that the old fashion way, then flash a new 2.2 rom back on.
... the devs in IRC are getting kinda antsy when people keep bugging them lol. they're telling us noobs to just wait until a full guide/automated program is made.

[Q] Rooting 2.2 US Cellular Desire - $40 Bounty on successful root!

I just got my HTC Desire from US Cellular today, as I was trying to root, it wouldn't work. I followed the instruction and tried it on 2 different computers, I have noticed that my phone does have the Android 2.2 update already applied to it. Has anyone been able to achieve root with 2.2?

I'm having the same issues. I played with uninstalling and reinstalling HTC Sync, Windows 7 vs Windows XP, just couldn't get anything to work. If you find something that works, could you please let me know?
I found a couple threads that say that unrevoked 3.21 might work, but I can't find the download ANYWHERE...

i got unrevoked v3.32, it works well on my phone. but i don't know how to upload it, maybe i can email you if you need(about 30MB).
BTW. as i know, before rooting you should shut down all of the process related to "HTC" in the Task Manager.

here's a video of installation of the drivers for rooting:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQeajchnen4
and the video of rooting with unrevoked (with links and all that stuff)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZmNcyE0km8

Just like all the previous times before i followed the instructions exactly as in the tutorials, and it gives this message.

I have 2.2 and i wanted to root my Desire today and got this messages :
error rooting firmwire to new ? and internal error : installing package failed

I found 1 thread that says we can't root using Unrevoked if we have hboot 1.06. Wonder when this will get updated...

I get the same message as the OP and would love to get the unrevoked tool or hboot drivers updated.
I'm 99% sure it has to do with the updated radio and/or hboot included in the 2.2 RUU that they used.
This is not a result of poorly followed steps according to current guides.
edit-
This will affect EVERYBODY who buys a new Desire with 2.2 installed from U.S. Cellular
It will also affect EVERYBODY who had S-ON prior to using the 2.2 RUU update downloaded from HTC. Regardless of other root access.

I figured it was due to the HBOOT version.
Well I'll start a bounty to the team or person who fixes this
I've got $15 i'll put up.

I couldn't root my 2.2 HTC Desire with Unrevoken3, but then after some searching I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256
Following that I've downgraded my phone to version 2.1, then Unrevoken3 did the trick.
After that I've put Oxygen ROM 2.3 Gingerbread on my phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=882758

That downgrade utility is for GSM desires not CDMA.
Oxygen ROMs are also for GSM phones only.
All US Cellular phones are CDMA

Hanging at Zerging root line..

So now I have a new problem , now instead of an error it hangs on the "Zerging root... This might take a while' and won't move... Any ideas? HTC Sync uninstalled , firewall off antivirus too. Drives installed , debug mode on. Hboot 0.93 or something like this.. Help?

That is what it says when I try to s off my dads desire using revolutionery..
Can itbe because my dads desire has an update but he won't install because it fails to download S or keeps saying it is damaged/corrupted?
Can I even s off using it or its different from the desire S?

Your situation is not that clear to me.........be more specific as much as you can giving out details that would also help the reader of your issue.
For the meantime go to this link and make sure you followed all instructions carefully then you can go back in this thread for further clarifications if your issue still persists.

Sorry , wrote the OP from my phone..
Anyways the situation is : When I try to root the phone with revolutenary , once it gets to Zerging root after some time it says Root failed or something with a sad smiley.. What could be the cause for this? The phone also has a official update through built-in update feature but as soon as it's done downloading it it says that the downloaded file ( AKA update ) is corrupted/damaged and asks me if I want to redownload and it won't help either.
Hope I was clear enough.

Is it a desire or desire S?
Root and s-off 2 different things. Zerging (which I have never heard of) is nothing to do with root or s-off on the desire.

Bootloop - help

Hi guys I have a little problem, my EVO started to bootloop without any reasons.
It can't pass the white HTC, and cant get to recovery.
It was rooted on unrevoke long time ago and last rom (rooted stock rom) and kernel (antrax) was loaded like 3-4 weeks ago. All worked fine till today, and now it's bootlooping like crazy.
I have H-boot 2.10.0001
radio 2.15.00.12.19.
I took the sd out, cleard the storage but still nothing.
Any ideas how to fix this issue.

Sounds like what mine was doing a few weeks back. I used the bootloader to ruu it back to stock and took it to sprint, a couple solder points broke loose on the motherboard. They couldn't fix it so they replaced it. Had my replacement rooted the same day.

Do you have a link where I can read how to do that? and download ruu?
I wil try to load a rom through the hboot first.

Any ideas?

I don't know, that pc36img worked for me. I'm at a loss
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

Which RUU did you flash?

The 4.54 update
I don't know if it made a difference but I flashed the s on image first
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

There are two names for those files
RUU and PC36, which one? I bet this is all the same
One more question, when you flashed S-on could you see it right away
after the re-boot?

The ruu I ran was named a pc36img so I could run it thru the bootloader. And yes when I rebooted I was s on
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2

I did flash that s-on like 10 times and still shows s-off
this phone is starting to make me angry

thx
thanks for all your help and keep it up with the good job :good:

I don't know what else to tell u, maybe someone else will chime in. Sorry bro

I can flash everything thru the hboot but I just can't get the s-on
and I don't think doing RUU.exe will fix that

I say just take it in to sprint with a stockish rom they shouldn't have a problem with it being rooted well at least I never had one..and if they do just take it home and keep trying to unroot.
Sent from my htc_jewel using XDA

Yes uber numismatic correct if they can boot it up and see s on but can't get past boot then to them that's stock they will try the number combination to factory reset and all if it doesn't work then you get a new phone
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA

Try the procedure in my Sig for unrooting Revolutionary. That should take care of it.

I did try all the options and still nothing.
I went to sprint store, show them what is going on and they said wait, I will fix it in 15 min.
Well, he had 2 news for me, first - good - I can upgrade my phone
second - bad - still boot loops because I have water damage - BS
My phone was never near the water and battery indicator is like brand new.
I will open the phone and look what are they talking about.
I'm done with Sprint and their ****ty service and warranty policy.
I open my phone and that's what I found - do you guys think this should qualify as a water damage, because to me it's not even close, they just want me to upgrade and stay with sprint

[Q] do I REALLY need Gold Card?

Hi y'all, somebody gave me a DesireC, it needs "Scrubbed"
Really can't do much other than play with the phone coz it's got that "CarrierIQ" crap in it, never mind my good freinds phone number --
Got it to root and S-off, factory reset it, (her number still there, tried that 3 times) as well as boot screen from her carrier...
I've tried making a gold-card? Learned alot but never succesfully made one. There is uncertaintly in the instructions wether to reverse the HeX string needed for the Gold card. Or Windows won't format the SDcard rightly...
Wouldn't all this be easier using Debian? [Linux]
I just want it bare nekked, no carrier, no number, NO SNITCHWARE (carrierIQ)
Do I NEED the gold-card to make this phone anonymous? If so, please point to the CLEAR instructions
Thanks in advance --

The dern thing won't let me RUU, as it's US Cellular apparently stock as I've tried "Factory Restore" hoping to clear my friends infoz off it
no joy, her number's still in it I'd be much happier if the phone number was blank, or xxxxxxxxxx (or whatever the default string is for a never activated phone)
Don't have (or see a need for) a carrier for it, coz I've not yet learned wether I can have it activated as a plain CDMA "No Gee" cell phone, If I gots Wifi I don't see a need for even 3g... It's loaded apps OK over WiFi. I'm a bit skittish even using WiFi till I'm sure it's clean with no CIQ
Once I get it's innards wiped (without any snitchware gunk) want to load a clean, battery efficient, more usable ROM (I don't need Fap-Book or Twiddler or games)
will loading a custom ROM remove the US Cellular crap and number?
Thanks in advance

Yeah, installing a custom rom removes the apps from your carrier

Hi abaaaabbbb63-
I got a old Desire CDMA (PB99400 Bravoc) with US Cellular. Unfortunately it is S-ON and I want to root it. The deal is that the HBOOT version is 1.09.000 and all the tools I have found are for HBOOT 1.06.000
Do you know if it is possible to downgrade the HBOOT?. My phone looks like Picture 1 in your post.
Any advice will be highly appreciated.
Cheers
