1. This is in the wrong section.
2. There are several threads about this already. No need to start a new one.
3. If you don't have s-off anymore it means you didn't have radio s-off and now you are stuck. You will not have root again.
Have a nice day.

Hello everyone and thanks for the replies. then in the future will be out a way to make the root in this version?thanks.

Most likely it will at some point in the future. If at all possible that is (insert scared shudder here).
The new devices rolling off the assembly line somewhere will all have the latest ROM and imho there are just too many useful things that require root.
If HTC, on the other hand, has succeeded in closing this ROM so tight that are no holes left to exploit I personally think that it will reflect negatively on their sales. Fat lot of good that will do us, I know.

[q] help the needy!

Well, i recently bought a desire hd(shifted from windows mobile), well i am rather scared to brick my device, so i would really appreciate if someone could direct me into the correct path of flashing my phone with cyanogen's Roms, at the moment, i have done reading, but i still have doubts and i cant really digest all the information given out there in certain threads, so please do help me! Thank You.

I would follow the Cyanogenmod wiki for completeness, this will taje you by the hand from stock to CM goodness

well, thank you, but i have a question, i have already rooted my phone using visionary, so i must i still root it using the method in the wiki?

That CM method is manual, and very complicated compared to the methods in this forum. You do not need to root using RATC when you have Visionary.

Ok, so yeah I have rooted with visionary, so in the wiki it mention that installing engineering hboot isn't necessary. So should I skip that step? Do I need to flash a new radio in order to flash cynogen mod? I am sorry for asking ridiculous questions. But I am rather worried to brick my beauty.

I personally would recommend flashing the hboot and also Radio S-OFF'ing, and I would recommend flashing the latest radio as it seems to improve battery life.
The reason I recommend the manual CM method is not every one has access to windows machines which many of the one click tools require,.

confusing, i am sorry, really and truly am, i am a noob with 0 knowledge on this, but i have flashed around with windows mobile though, please do help me, just guide me, small baby steps would do, spare me some of you time. Please and thank you,.

[Q] Rooting HTC Desire Z Gingerbread 2.3.4?

Hello XDA Community,
I am fairly new to the concept of rooting an android device and I have no idea where to start. I understand what rooting is and what it will allow me to do, but I just have no idea how to get started
I was looking around the forums and reading different topics on how to root the HTC Desire Z (or my G2 for short), but a lot of the topics take me to links to other topics, which have links to other topics which have a lot of technical things that are not friendly to a first time rooter (What is S-OFF/S-ON?? Why would I need to do that and how??).
I recently allowed my G2/HTC Desire Z to upgrade to the new Gingerbread 2.3.4, and to my understanding, there is no simple way to get this rooted. After reading the topics, I do see that there is a way around it, but I'm just at a loss as to where to start.
Is there anybody out there that is willing to help me out? If so, that would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

The above linked method will work for you also. You'll have to downgrade first, then root, then flash a pre-rooted OTA build. That'll put you back to where you are now, but with root access.

I've just rooted HTC Desire Z - Android 2.3.3
1. You have to downgrade firmware 2.x to 1.3.4 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905261)
2. And then following these instruction in ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD )
3. Done

have any of you guys tried the gingerbreak?
from what i read its able to root any gingerbread device.
i cant post links as this is my second post. but im sure if you google it, you should find it.
i read under the techofweb result.
not sure if it works, i never tried it. Rooting my HTC desire Z voids my warranty
but if you guys out there try it, let me know if its successful.
thanks in advance.

Gingerbreak doesn't work on the G2 / DZ. And doesn't work on many devices.

What we're actually doing now to root is this :
2.3.4, temp rooting 2.3.4, downgrade to OTA 2.1, root that, flash new ROM.

You forgot the last step *PROFIT!* lol all kidding aside for the one who asked the pre-rooted ota is in the development section. don't forget to flash recovery and get titanium backup and all that good stuff first...well second after temproot if you go that method. DO NOT USE VISIONARY!

Also remember to do a nandroid backup of your 2.1 ROM if for some reason you want to go back to stock, or sending your phone in for warranty.

Hello everyone, I am using HTC-Desire Z with the android version 2.3.3
I really want to upgrade my phone to ICS. In case of doing the root, i want to know that, if i root my phone will it downgrade first to the Froyo??? If it will then can i upgrade to the ICS using the custom ROM process???
If anyone knows or understands my problems please provide me a solution and that will be appreciated..
Thank You
Zawad

Yes search the threads and follow the wiki. The only safe way to root is to downgrade first using the method outlined in the wiki. The only way (for now and probably forever) to get ics on a desire z or g2 is to root

[Q] Missing superuser?

So I've recently gotten my Desire Z rooted, and I'm trying to install a custom ROM.
However Clockwork keeps telling me that my phone is not rooted, ("You must root your phone for ROM Manager to function. Superuser was not found at "/system/bin/su" or "/system/xbin/su"".
Even so my phone has SU installed as well as busybox. How do I need to go about fixing this?
Thank you for any help!

first of all what method did you follow to gain root?
also do any other rooted apps work? setcpu, titanium, adfree ?

I used the HTCdev method to unlock my bootloader then I used the Fre3vo exploit and pushed the superuser and busybox apks and installed them both.
Titanium does not work either.

I believe in order to get the su to work you have to actually flash it as a .zip the first time. Also, do you have s.off? That htcdev.com method is horse crap if you ask me, though it will get you unlocked.
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium

It managed to get my bootloader unlocked.
But no I don't have S-off. Would having flashed it from a .zip changed anything else?
Also I can flash ClockWorkRecovery without even a little bit of an Issue.

well s-off means no root, follow the wiki, downgrade and then root.
the htc unlocked bootloader is just a stepping stone leading to nowhere
probably the most you will get out of it is confirming your g2 is void of warranty with htc
so follow the wiki, it isnt to hard and you will be much happier than trying to cheat your way into root!
good luck!

Alright, well thanks for your help fellas!

no problem, just make sure you read the wiki first and understand it, if not search the threads and im sure someone has had the same question. but over all it takes from 30min for the experienced up to 2hrs if your lost the whole time. leave the appropriate amount of time and youll be a happy camper soon enough!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1453066
This is the thread you need to follow if you have already used htcdev method. You will have to relock bootloader, then downgrade, then root and s.off.
Also, if you have any further problems talk to that nipqer, he is really good.

follow this guide, since you have "the official HTC unlocked bootloader" which as i said before is almost worthless (not complaining to you but to htc) i believe you need to do a few things first before you can downgrade, you need to be at froyo for this method to work, dont have time to search for you right now but im sure you'll find the appropriate steps to take if you search a little

HTC Unlock only lets you flash ROMs through fastboot. As already mentioned, it doesn't give you root, S-Off, and you can't flash straight from ROM Manager or recovery.

Root DHD

Hey everybody,
I am here to ask the much dreaded question. How can I root my DHD? I don't really want to use AAHK and downgrade my firmware, I need a 2.3.5 root please. By the way I have woven through many forums, so none of those "search before you ask" posts. After all, forums are for asking questions. Many thanks
P.S I am a new member, so bear with me

Forums are for asking new questions, but they are not for asking questions that have been asked and answered many times previously, like this one. With that said, I can believe that you have at least searched a bit and just not found what you're looking for, since the only other solution is significantly less popular (for good reason). So: you can use HTCDEV to unlock the bootloader. It give you fewer ROM options (you can only flash ROMs intended for your phone, not ported ROMs), and you need to flash the boot.img from your computer each time you flash a ROM. (Those restrictions are the reasons why HTCDEV is less popular than AAHK; I usually recommend AAHK.) Why don't you want to downgrade using AAHK?

first try this software http://www.unlockroot.com/ if it didnt work then use aahk

There is no way to gain S-OFF and root without downgrading. That is why the Hack Kit does that. SuperOneClick, unlockroot and other stuff wont work in your device.
The other choice is to unlock the bootloader as bananagranola said, but that wont give you total control of your device nor root.
What you can do, is after running the Hack Kit, flash a 2.3.5 custom rom that you like, but that is of course your call.

Why don't you just downgrade and root? I did the same way

OK guys, I guess AAHK is the way forward. It won't wipe my data will it?

Sadly, it will wipe your data during the downgrade process. There seems to be no way around it
But aahk is quite save and will tell you before it destroys any data.

The only chance that I see, is that run zergrush or tacoroot to gain temp root and then back up your stuff, then downgrade and root.

Finaly a question that I need an answer to... Ok, I actually want to use the aahk, but my waranty is still valid so I wish to make a backup of my stock ROM so I could unROOT if something goes wrong in the future... Now, the aahk will downgrade my phone and thous not give me a chance to backup mu current ROM... Is there any way I could back it up somehow? I think that that is the way to go with the original question if you already want the stock ROM...
