Hi,
I want to root and then install the Android Revolution HD Custom Rom and I have a question before I go ahead.
Basically is it safe to go ahead and use the tools listed in the Revolution HD dev thread to root and then install?
For example The one click S Off tool Visionary is apparently not being developed any more and is only intended for Froyo builds.
I have been searching the dev thread but at 6500+ pages I may well have missed something so apologies if this has already been answered.
Anyone? I really don't want to brick the phone with a year left on the contract.
Don't know how you read 6500 pages and miss the ace hack kit. Use that make sure to read the manual
As I don't have two spare weeks to read all 6500 pages I didn't. Found mention of the AHK on page 6200 and something. Thanks for the heads up!
Yay!! rooted and booted and running 7.0.3, AHK worked like a charm!
Thanks again!

Hi guys sorry if this has been mentioned before but i think i've read every post regarding the HTC desire running 2.2.

Go on then, spread the word!

ok firstly my mistake, i have a locked t-mobile Htc Desire, then root it, then install a custom rom then install stock RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed
then run software udate and you have a stock 2.2 rom result.
well done...
<slow hand clap>
Thread is pointless really.
A) Your title and content is completely wrong and how could you not know this when you posted originally and B) The actual rom details etc is well known to most people as there are already plenty of threads here and other forums with same info.
Wake up dude.
This thread should be torched by the mods before too many T-Mo users think this guy is a genius.
Hey All.
Im completely lost in the "rom" jungle.
Im trying to root my desire hd, but all I get is tools to old for my device, asking me to downgrade my rom before root.. I was looking at the post "Android Revolution HD" rom, but it startet in 2010, and counts 5000+ pages.. Would any point me to the correct post/solution ?
The atm tool, dont work with my 2.33 rom

when i did it on mine, i searched though threads and never needded more than the 1st post and following OP posts (and i only read, without any questions or even new threads), if u still need to have this thread make a mod to move it to Q&A or general
Posting in the correct section would be a good start
There are plenty of guides & tools that will root 2.3/4/5 firmware.
Look in the Dev section for the AAHK that will do it for you.
Ty andyharney!
Think that did the trick..

Hey everyone!
So I have searched the forums and I have found nothing on rooting the Telus DHD with 2.3.5? I don't know if the Advanced Ace will work because I'm in Canada? I also have read that it wont work with my current DHD or i need to downgrade? iunno, I'm confused. I'm relatively new to the whole "rooting" thing and I have been satisfied with the DHD until now. I was using Go launcher EX so my phone was alright, now im just bored and looking for an upgrade.
If there is already a forum can someone please point me in the correct way. I have tried to download some of the files here including the stock rom file....

The Hack Kit is the only working tool to gain S-OFF and as you read your phone will be downgraded first to achive that (done by the Hack Kit). Use the guide in my signature to find the infromation you need and if you have doubts, visit the thread in my signature. :good:

Hello guys im new at forum.
i have desire hd and i wanna root it and put JellyTIme cuz i heard its the best ROM.
but can somebody give me the full instructions step by step how to do that cuz im a noob in that.
my android version is:2.3.5
and if i do something wrong what can happens?
Search for Advance Ace Hack Kit on Google. If not, look in the Desire HD General section for Ace Think Tank and look there, the team over there (me included ) will help you out

Yes, first get AAHK, unfortunately it has been removed from XDA, you you must google for it. I have made a small guide on rooting and backing up apps prior to flashing new ROMs, might shed some light too: http://projects.lanik.org/AndroidProjectROMs.htm

The ONLY working tool is the Hack Kit as everybody said. Find it here: http://tau.shadowchild.nl
As long as you follow the instructions in the Site and in the effen manual and your phone has no hardware issues, you will be fine and nothing will happen. The Hack Kit has been used thounsand of times successfully. You even have an IRC support channel in case you get stuck, besides the thread that Guy told you. :cyclops:
before you use the hack kit, be aware that it will downgrade your os, root it, s-off, and delete all user data.
i CANNOT STRESS THE IMPORTANCE OF READING THE EFFEN MANUEL.

from my HTC Desire HD
Hello guys, im newbie in roms and all the phones stuff so please dont criticise I have a HTC Desire Z with Android 2.2. My question here is how to update it to newer? 4.4.4 would be awesome, i want newest i can. I found some posts on couple of forums about this but every was like "format, flash, update, boooom done". Can anyone tell me how to do it from begining? I mean how to format it the way it should be, how to flash, what do i need etc.
Also i found this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1374927
Is it good? I know i shouldnt ask what rom should i pick, im just asking is it good to use on this phone.
Thanks in advance
Hi,
The second post in this thread will help you understand the initial process
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2348266
You need to use gfree to exploit and root if you want radio s-off which is the only way you should root this phone. And be sure to read through all those links to understand fully first, I know it may be overwhelming but it is important.
As for best ROM, we don't make suggestions in xda but the third and forth post will link you to every to available. Gingerbread runs the best overall but there are many ICS and jb ROMs that work almost as well (some will say better) and KitKat has come a long way where many will find that it suffice for daily use.
You'll have to try a few, make backups, try a few more to see what works best for you
If you get stuck somewhere just ask in that thread and many are there to jump in and help
Best of luck!
Kay so i downgraded my phone with fre3vo and rebooted, everything was fine. Now the guide says i should head back to official rooting guide on wiki but the problem is i cant root it now. At downgrading it worked with no problems but now i just cant do it. Can anyone help please?
You will have to be more specific
