I have recently purchased a HTC Wildfire S but cannot root it.
I have unlocked the Bootloader via HTC Dev and I have tried nearly all the tools,
HTC Supertool v3 (cannot chmod) , Super One Click (crashes at part 7), WFS manager (unable to boot into recovery. I have also tried to install CWM through fast boot as well but everytime I try to boot into recovery, it boots with the green HTC logo screen then goes black.
Is there any way to root this?
If it helps the carrier I am on is Orange UK.

please help..how can i update it and unlock my bootloader
with hboot hboot-1.08.0099 you are ready to use htcdev.com tutorial with fastboot.
Did you try to Pull out the Battery and take it back in? Maybe this could help.
Thanks 4 the answer..i'll try it asap..

There's no solution yet for an s-off unless u use xtc clip.
Check this tutorial and use your reading abilities. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21272740
This is to root, install clockwork recovery and to install superuser. Good luck
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S using xda premium
you dont need to be s-off to unstall your custom installed apps on your WFS...you just need titanium backup...and to use that you need to have superuser apps and search for the bin file then put in on x:\system\su.bin on your sd card...
to install clockworkmod recovery just google "autoinstaller for htc wildfire s unlocked boot loader" you will find a software like htc root tools v2
it will help you install it
if we have unlocked the phone with htc dev then the fastboot method in bootloader mode wont work as s-on is still on..
Edit : rooted .. thanks xda and to all the supporters

The same issue.
I have had the same problem. I unlocked my boot loader,with S-ON..and i tried rooting the phone through Htc Supertool(said ROOTED)..it has installed/pushed the Superuser file into the phone..but hasn't really rooted the phone.. So whenever i try using apps that need a 'Rooted' phone..it says that Superuser has denied permissions..i just dont know what to do..Help for me would be totally appreciated as well..

Hi, I have a VM Wildfire S that I just returned to stock on with unlocked bootloader, s-off, and finally rooted it . The all in one utility from rezo69 works pretty well to get it rooted.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697985 The only issue i had with it was the recovery that flashes during part of the root process wont boot on my phone. So after getting the root files on my sd card I had to flash another recovery to be able to get into it(unofficial cwm 5.0.2.6 works well, thanks alquez). Also the su binary installed is out of date and wont update for me so I had to go to the chainsdd su website and download a recovery flashable zip for the binary. Some patience and googleing you should be able to figure it out.
Thanks
Thanks a lot guys, I got it rooted I tried your tool GuitarFreak12 but sadly it diden't work :/ i downloaded that custom recovery sugested by bobdarkside and then used a flashable root from the user rgsgroup2005, and that finaly worked. also fixed another problem; my CWM on my last wildfire s froze up when i tried to flash anything. This one worked.
Thanks a lot guys!

Hi, I unlocked the phone visa HTCDev, and flashed 4EXT recovery (through fastboot) and tried to flash CM7 (after full wipe). The phone now gets stuck at the white screen with HTC logo. I also tried to flash Android Revolution HD, the phone remains stuck at the white screen.

HTCDev is not a good option. Always use AAHK to root and S-OFF. Sashank has given some pretty good insight into this topic and ways to amend your mistake. Look at this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31211732&postcount=396

I don't think you can run AAHK on an unlocked bootloader. You need to relock and rerun AAHK. So since you're unlocked S-ON instead of locked S-OFF, you need to fastboot flash a boot.img to get your phone to boot. Details in the PDF in post #7 of the Ace Think Tank thread linked in my signature.

That is good, but what you need to to know is if you are S-OFF on S-ON. Check in hboot (boot pressing power + volume down) what it says at the top left corner...it should read ACE PVT.....

Extract the boot.img file from your rom zip into the '' platform-tools'' folder you made when you unlocked it. Then open up command prompt, type: cd (location of platform tools). Then type: fastboot flash boot boot.img

I have an HTC Wildfire S [EU]. Following are the details of it.
Model Number - HTC Wildfire S A510e
Android version - 2.3.5
ROM Version - 2.26.401.3
I wanted to root the phone. So following a tutorial I first unlocked the bootloader using HtcDev.com. Now Hboot shows as follow:
*** UNLOCKED ***
MARVEL PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.09.0099
Then I downloaded (recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.8-marvel) and flashed it using adb. So far everything went ok. After that I Hboot the device and went to the recovery mode. But it won't start the CWM recovery. Just keep stuck in the HTC Boot screen [Logo screen]. Any solution for this situation?
