The process to root 2.2.1 is far longer than downgrading to 2.1 to rooting
- S-OFF using AlphaRev X
- Push a Custom Recovery
- Push Superuser Binary
The process is outlined in the link I have pasted. There is NO SHORTER WAY, So dont bother asking, and, this method will void your warranty.
And can you, for God's sake, not use so many exclamation marks? It annoys the hell out of someone reading it.

Guide: How to S-Off, Root and install CWM. On a Wildfire running Froyo 2.2.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have just successfully s-offed, rooted and installed CWM on my mates Wildfire and thought it'd be a good idea to outline how I did it.
Apharev X is still in a beta version and I take no responsibility for any damage caused, but it definitely worked for me.
Step1:
Download Apharev X. Follow the instructions exactly. Please note: Presently this only works for Hboot versions 1.01.0001 and 1.01.0002.
To find out what Hboot version your phone has do the following.
Power off the phone.
Hold down the volume down key and at the same time press the power button. This will boot you into your Hboot menu.
Once you are s-off, continue to step 2.
Step2:
Download the latest version of Gingerbreak(v1.20.apk)
Follow the installation instructions in the above post exactly.
Once done, you should be rooted, you can check this by going into your app drawer and seeing if you have the super user app. If you have, then gongrats, your phone is rooted.
Step3:
Installing ClockworkMod so you can make nand backups, flash roms etc etc.
Download and install the Root Toolbox app from the market.
Download the ClockworkMod recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.1-buzz.img file. Extract the file and make sure you rename it to recovery.img, then place it on the root of your SD card.
Open Root Toolbox and click the advanced button followed by Erase Recovery, once it's done click the Flash Recovery button.
This should have flashed the CWM recovery to your phone. You should now be able to access recovery to install roms, make nand backups etc etc.
Once you're all done, you can uninstall Gingerbreak.
A list of Wildfire roms is available in this thread over at XDA Developers.

Work Great
You made my day, it really works exactly as u describe it.
S-offed, rooted and nand-backedup my Wildfire (or like thai-peaple say: wifi, coz can't a speak it)
hboot:1.01.0001
One needs to download busybox installer to install busybox to make Root Toolbox work, but great guide.
Now i can flash CyanogenMod-7.1
This thread should be pinned

If your phone is S-OFF you do not need to unlock the bootloader follow this guide
Just dont flash the recovery in the thread.....use ROM Manager to do it(install the app and select "Download Recovery" and then "Flash recovery")
After flashing the custom recovery,you are free to flash any rom

You don't have to flash a custom ROM you can keep the stock stuff and have a rooted phone. But unlocking the bootloader will delete settings messages app data and contacts so back them up

Rooted with CM10 Flashed

Well you can remove root. But once you flashed a custom recovery you must make a nandroid backup so you have a non rooted stock rom. The only thing is that we can not LOCK the bootloader after unlocking it ! It will say RELOCKED so they always know that you at least habe unlocked the bootloader once !

HELP!
Hi Guys,
I've unlocked bootloader and followed this guide to root: (can't put in URL, but google 'HTC One X Rooting Detailed Guide Part 2: Steps to Root this Android Phone' on GuidingTech)
Problem being that when I get to the following step: Step 7: After the Nandroid backup is done, select Install Zip from SD card and flash CWN-SuperSU-vx.xx.zip (x.xx can be any number depending upon the update you are using).
I don't have that listed. I've downloaded SuperSU from the play store and as the option doesn't come up to move to phone storage, I'm presuming it's already on the SD card...?
Apologies, complete n00b being guided here - was doing well until this.
Can anyone help with why it's not in the list (it doesn't help that the screenshot is not very clear on that step)
HELP!
