[Q] Upgrading my CWM? - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I have a HTC Wildfire that I have rooted and unlocked using Revolutionary. I want to put on the Rem Puzzle ROM but part of the instructions mention that I have to partition the SD drive. The "partition sd" option is not available in the CWM that came with Revolutionary. I am assuming I need to upgrade my CWM to a newer version? How do I do this? I am new to this. Many thanks.

Hi, will do. Does the cwm-4.0.1.4-buzz.img that it suggests to download have the "partition sd" option in it? Thanks.

That worked and the option to "partition sd" is now appearing in my cwm recovery! Thanks very much.

Seriously ?? 2.1 ??!!
First install official 2.3.3 (you can download it from htcdev.com) then use revolutionary .
edit : sorry didn't see the first pic !! yep , I think you're rooted . Is there an app named "Superuser" in your menu ?? if yes you're rooted .

No there is not a "superuser" app
Where can I download the official 2.3.3? I can't find it
You are S-OFF but doesn't have the Superuser app yet most definitely.
To get root, you have to flash superuser zip found on Revolutionary FAQ page. Read it and it's there. Third FAQ item if my memory serves me correct.
Alternatively you can just flash a custom rom and it will have superuser out of the box.
EDIT: Here read common problems and questions. It's item number 4

What do I do with the flash files? Do they go on to the sd card or what?

Save that zip file on your SD card.
Choose Recovery on the hboot menu.
Depending on what recovery you have, look for something that says flash/install from sd card
select the file and let it do it's work
reboot

Looks like you haven't flashed a custom recovery yet...
Since you're using a desire with german language, I suspect that you speak german ;-)
Before you play around with your device, I think it's better to read and understand what you're doing. Therefore, brutzelstube.de is a great german website specially about rooting and modding the desire. Maybe you should just read the tutorials there and see what your device is capable of. If you need to ask what to do next for every step, you probably won't have much fun with your rooted desire. Especially if you want to flash a custom rom.
As it is a used device, what about the one who owned the device before? Can't you ask him what exactly he did?
You could also just install and run an app that requires root (like Titanium Backup or Rom Manager) and see what happens...

Seriously? Rom manager..... Fail
Like stankyou says, you need to flash a custom recovery and you'll need to flash superuser before you try to install any app that requires root access

Well, first of all there was the question if root-access works or not. Looks like the answer was no, but just trying it out does no harm. And since Rom Manager requires root, it should be ok for testing, just like any other root app. I didn't say he would need it.
Or he could just look in app drawer for the superuser app

Sure, but since I saw more than one case where some apps didn't show in app drawer, I don't trust the app drawer anymore ;-)

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.
Get it from here: http://androidsu.com/superuser/

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.

Do u mean to do this when on android 2.2.1?
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....

Help about rooting and installing custom ROM

Heloo,
Ok so my friend's DhD needs rooting and installing custom ROM and I require little help (because he is not very tech guy ). As I understood the procedure for root and custom ROM is with "UMT - Ultimate Multi Tools" and following the instructions which I found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1180639
-Launch a Downgrade
-Install visionary+ (In visionary+, launch "Temproot", and "Atempt Perm root"). Your device is now rooted!
-Launch S-OFF/Super CID/SIM Unlock
-Install ROM Manager (In ROM Manager, flash recovery)
-Flash HBOOT
-You can install a ROM Custom (I assume via CWM)
Am I missing something or this is it ?

If the phone is already S-OFF, then you just need to flash a custom recovery like CWM or 4ext and then flash the rom you like. Check the guide Teichopsia told you. Is all in there.

I dont think so, but I think you need latest hboot so that htcdev can unlock it. But i am not so sure myself. But no need to downgrade. The tools should unlock your bootloader, flash recovery and install superuser binary to gain root.
