[Q] Anyone tested VISIONary on HTC Desire?

Hey folks,
Just QQ, has anyone tested whether VISIONary works on HTC Desire? I've dug into other threads here and found out it works on both HTC Desire HD and HTC Desire Z but I couldn't find anything in terms of HTC Desire.
Cheers!

I think it will work as it says it perm roots non nand locked devices. Try it

Please excuse my ignorance but could you explain what are NAND/eMMC locked devices?

Whatever NAND/eMMC locked devices are, I have just installed VISIONary version r10 from the Android market on my unbranded, unrooted HTC Desire and tried to get temp root but it simply didn't work
Anyway I hope HTC Desire will be supported in next releases as it's great idea to temporarily become a root only when it's needed and using one-click app from the market.

Hi folks, it looks like we can finally very easily get a temproot on Desire
I've just installed the latest version of VISIONary+ (r14) from http://android.modaco.com/content/software/320350/19-nov-r14-visionary-one-click-root/ Once I opened the app and clicked "Temproot now" then after ~20sec I got a temproot - take a look at attached screenshots as an evidence
The root access has been lost after shutdown/reboot a phone as intended.

Hmm... Looks interesting.. Have to try it.

And would be more interesting to see if Titanium works while temprooted.. Can anyone confirm?

I've installed a free version of Titanium Backup! 3.6.0 from the market so can confirm that it works fine while temprooted

So you can backup without having to root?? Sounds good

Yup..Best news ever!
Now people wont have to root just for backup and apps!
Now..If someone would create a Temp Recovery and get Nandroid working! Too much to ask, I know!

Shame you need pro to backup apps...

Quoting my own post cos I wrote something wrong
Fake flash is already there. Paul and Koush released it a long time ago!

It's not a fake flash as VISIONary don't flash anything on your phone whatsoever It's just yet another way to get a superuser on your desire. To be honest I am not entirely sure what it works but based on what already found out it seems to me that it's kinda exploit.

I've already tested Titanium Pro and it works fine while temprooted too. Take a look at attached screenshot
Btw, why did you think it's not supposed to work? please note that actually there no difference between "be rooted" and "be temprooted" In both of cases you're logged on the OS as a root Of course while you're "temprooted", you'll lose your superuser level of permissions after reboot/restart your device what means you'll need to use VISIONary again to get temproot later if needed.

Yup..I wasnt talking about Visionary, but about my other post about a wish for a Fake Nandroid. But apparently that isnt about Fake Flash isnt about that either!

I've temp rooted using VISIONary (thanks Paul) and that's as far as I'm willing to go atm. I've installed Titanium, SetCPU and the cache cleaner app. Very nice indeed but what else can I do now with temp root?

You can't do much with temp root apart from use root needed apps.

Would the temproot be gone if you tried to use clockworkmod recovery (from the update.zip rather than a flashed recovery partition) to then do a NAND backup since the phone reboots?

no i tried and since the phone is "shut down" while in recovery then clockworkmod doesnt appear, only the stock recovery appears.

[Q] Trying 2 understand few thing things after/about rooting!

So i have rooted the htc DZ and tried out multiple roms... Till now i used to use the CWR to wipe the data/cache before loading a new rom.. Yesterday i decided to try SuperWipeG2+ without reading much(not trying to understand what it exactly does).
After i flashed it, i by mistake hit the reboot now in CWR and it hung at the boot screen. To fix this i removed the battery and put it back in,since power on was not working. When i did so it went to HBoot and started flashing the 1.34 PC10IMG file present in the sdcard which i did not remove after rooting.
Query:-
1) Should i have removed 1.34 PC10IMG?
2)If i ever face a similar situation like mentioned above will it enter the recovery,if the1.34 PC10IMG file was not present ?(i did try to do away with updating the 1.34 PC10IMG,but always entered the HBoot on every subsequent restart and never allowed me to change the options from flashboot to anything else).
2a)If it does not enter recovery, then what is it to be done?
3)Currently i have stock 1.34 rom which says i do not have root(check this by installing rom manger )! but when i check Boot page, it says S-off and other Hboot etc.
I did run from step 1. to root DZ and it was back to good old rooted condition.
(Did a lot searching and reading but i couldn't answer the above questions- hence the thread also just not comfortable experimenting too much,might end bricking the phone )
Non-rooting query:-
4)Also what is use of app2sd/partition of sd-card!
i mean, as per my understanding this(app2sd) can"only"be used when there is partition in you sd-card which allows apps to be moved to sd-card,but when using MIUI rom i still can move most of the user apps to sd-card..
If these questions has been already asked and replied or even already explained please forgive me for creating this thread and please provide the link.. Would appreciate a lot..
Thanks..

Anyone ... Sorry abt the long post...

I only know no.4
Since Froyo, you dont need this app. You can move it to your sd card under the Application setting. But, not all apps can be moved (such as task manager, pre installed app). You dont need to create partition, just install it and run it.
Anyway, since our DZ has internal memory 1,5 GB, I never moved apps to sd card
Cheers

Thanks ... 1 cleared.. 3 to go...

For the other q's
Yes you should remove the PC10IMG from your sdcard.otherwise you can't get into recovery through bootloader.
(although you could boot to fastboot, and if you have the eng bootloader boot a recovery through terminal/cmd)
Did you run the "./root_psn" step of the rooting guide? If not that might be the error with not perm-root

ROM Manager is just checking for su, I believe; try downloading SuperUser by ChainsDD from the market and flashing the su binary with it and then loading ROM Manager.

When you installed the application, did you also flash the binary? Launch the application, go into preferences and scroll to the bottom for the option to flash the binary

I replied to your question in modaco but I mentioned again here, do you do the bootloader unlock procedure first before you run the superboot ?
I'll make a simple tutorial later on how to unlock and root the htc one v.

hii, sorry i havent checked modaco yet. i just got the phone like 2 days, so i havent done to the bootloader. it's still s-off tho. so what am i supposed to do before flashing the boot.img ?
thanks

Continue discussion here as I seldom go to MoDaCo thread... I'll post "how to" later (say in next two hours when I'm at home).
EDIT: I made a simple tutorial on how to root your htc one v HERE

in htcdev, i have t pick "all supported devices" ?
because there's no htc one v option

If the phone is S-OFF then you don't need to unlock the bootloader. Just root it.

Right... if it is already s-off, just download the SuperSU from Play store and you are done.
@handisetyadi - is your bootloader written there s-off ? Please recheck.

S-OFF doesn't mean that the phone is rooted. He needs to do this first:
ckpv5 said:
Rooting with Superboot
1. Download r1-primo-superboot.zip to your computer and extract in any directory.
2. Download the modded boot.superboot.img
3. Replace the boot.superboot.img in the folder that you extracted just now (r1-primo-superboot).
4. Power off your phone by holding the power button down for 10 seconds
5. Power your phone on by holding power and volume down (going to Fastboot mode)
6. Highlight Fastboot With Volume+or- then press Power
7. Connect your phone to PC
8. Double click ‘install-superboot-windows.bat’
Once it complete, the phone will reboot on its own. In app drawer you will see a SuperSU icon, click on it and update SU binary then you are done with rooting your Htc One V.
You can try any app with root access to confirm it is working.

He needs to do that only to have root and full ADB root access, if he already s-off and needs only root, just download the SuperSU from Play Store but no ADB access.
But I guess his One V is S-On, that is why he failed to flash the boot.img the first time he tried.

I just s off it and root it. But it seems it doesnt have root access yet. But i already have SU app.
Everytime i go to root uninstaller app, it asks me for adb access which i dont know how.
And also, when o try to update SU binary, it always fails. Everything is ok except the busybox checking and Gaining root access

There's a sticky Tutorial on how to root and unlock the bootloader. I looked through it, and everything you need is right there. For the time being, I will be closing this thread, to avoid any conflict with the sticky.

i know i`m rooted but the main problem is the radio, its causing heavy loss of speed over wifi network so i`m asking for the root on stock 2.2.1 wherein wifi works perfect and if i am not wrong its the radio downgrade that used to happen during the actual rooting process of downgrading the O.S. after S-OFF`ing the device so i also mentioned about the radio onto my actual post.

Ah, okay, to root stock firmwares you need to download a superuser.zip.

Download the recovery from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?398dklf1uzss5f6
Put it on the root of your SD card (not in any folders)
Boot the phone into the bootloader
Allow the update
Turn phone off and remove SD card
Boot into the recovery
If you did all this correct, you should now have CWM recovery installed.

Yes, boot into the OS and put the file on your SD card, then boot back into the bootloader.

Also once you have got a stock rom rooted download this https://play.google.com/store/apps/...utm_medium=organic&utm_term=busybox+installer and install busybox as some root apps won't work without it....

[Q] WFS root problem

Hello,
I have a WFS which is S-ON.
I unlocked the bootloader via htcdev.com.
When i restart the phone in the bootloader, i see in the first line "UNLOCKED"; the phone is still S-ON.
When i try to root it (supertoolv3), it says it's rooted at the end, but nothing is done after the restart.
Also by installing Superuser and Busybox from the play store does not help.
I don't want to put a custom bootloader nor Rom, just want a rooted phone to uninstall some bloatware and use some applications...
Another question i have is how to flash a stock rom with the Belgium Dutch AZERTY keyboard... Anyone an idea?
My actual rom has version 2.26.401.4
Does anyone has an idea what i can try?
Already thanks!

He means install titanium backup and allow root permissions. After it starts go into the apps section touch the app you want to remove and press uninstall.
Don't forget to press thanks if I helped.
