i spent the last 2 hrs trying to unlock the evo 4g

Are you on 32 or 64 bit? This os windows 7 correct? I have many drivers and am willing to help you out. It might take a few tricks to make them work correctly bit I know most of them.

BTW,after installing HTC Sync, you'd have wanted to uninstall it, so the drivers would still be installed, but not the software

[Q] Can flashing a custom ROM harm the phone's board ?!

I was trying to flash a custom ROM to my my htc DHD, changing the phone's ROM from Android Revolution HD 7.0.4 to a Miui ROM. During the process the mobile went to a complete black screen with nothing else happening, I opened the bootloader and the same thing happens when I try to boot to Recovery, but it still goes in fastboot when I connect the phone to the laptop, so I thought that I've mistakenly deleted the Recovery files from the phone, I tried to push the files using adb but it always said that the device is not found, after several tries I decided to pay a visit to htc customer service where they told me that the phone's board was harmed during the process, having bad history with htc customer service with 2 previous visits both went horribly wrong and they didn't even have the phone checked, only tried to boot it and then jumped to the conclusion, I've had to ask you people for help !!
Here is how I tried to flash the ROM to the already rooted mobile:
I some how thought about using the following method to change the recovery from EXT4 to ClockworkMOD .. I don't know what I was thinking or how high I was at that moment but it really happened using the Advanced Ace Hack Kit
Then the mobile has gone black and story I told before happened, my question now is, can this process or any software development process harm the phone's board by any means ?! and could this problem I'm facing be really with the phones board ?!
No, just head back to the hack kit forum there is a link there for IRC chat help from the guys there. You may have just corrupted your bootloader image. Those working in customer service can't tell you which end is their brain and which end is their rear
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
I've tried to contact them with the problem when it first happened but they refused to help me telling that I've used the kit for what it's not meant for .. they were kind of arrogant but .. they've got a point !
You will need to install the stock ATT gingerbread ROM using your PC: http://dl4.htc.com/RUU_Ace_Gingerbre...368_signed.exe You will then have to re-root using the Hack Kit.

Link ain't working, plus how would i install in via pc if the adb can't see the device loaded to the computer ?!
hmm .. i got it .. it's all solved now .. thanks a lot man

No problem just remember read search and learn before you try anything on your phone, we all had to do it. Also stick with ext4 for rom flashing its what we all use. I dont even bother with rom manager anymore.
Welcome to XDA and enjoy the learning.

google the "RUU Ace Gingerbread S Cingular US 2.47.502.7 Radio 12.56.60.25 26.10.04.03 M release 200368 signed" then swich on the mobile and let load to the black screen that used to pop up to me, attach the mobile to the laptop and launch the stock ROM .. it'll do everything and leave the mobile with the stock unrooted ROM, then reroot the device with the aahk.

rooting
I got my droid razr m two days ago, and I am really interested in rooting it. I have never rooted before, so I know i have a lot to learn. I have read up on superoneclick and cryogenmod, but I cant find the phone listed there. I am assuming that is because its so new. Does anyone have any information that could get me started with rooting my phone?

Nope, need a developer version at this point to have an unlocked bootloader. This is just the drivers from pre-release... the Retail release are nearly identical (Link above). This does however have the flashing app which will come in handy if you don't have a developer login to Moto Mobility.

The bootloader in unlockable for the developer edition as well as the international version. But not for the $99 version.
As for "writable" part, once we have root, you should be able to access your system partition.

Driver Question
compnird - Cool to get straight USB drivers for RAZR M. Have had trouble with MDM on XP. Question - will these drivers apply to XP or just Win 7/8? My old flagship box is still on XP.
TIA,
SoftDad
Dang nobody gonna post the 64 bit drivers ? Can anyone convert the pre-release drivers to x64?
Thanx. Your a life saver!
These don't install on 64bit Windows 10.
Can someone point me in the right direction for the drivers I need? I can't find them anywhere.
Where I can download the firmware Sir?
Hello All,
I am running into a bizarre situation.
My XT907 has bad usb connector prints and I cannot connect it to computer to flash it using RDS etc.
It is on stock ROM (Not Rooted) and stuck on "Animated EYE"
"Wipe Data/ Factory reset" does not seem to work for me.
Nor It is getting update from the "SD CARD UPDATE"
Is there anyway i can use Update From SD card option (No Root)
I have Tried Many Stock Roms (Almost All Versions) using SD card, it only says
Android System Recovery <3e>
KDA20.62-15.1
--Install /sdcard ...

[Root/Unlock] LG Optimus F6 T-Mobile

Hello users I have recently bought a new T-Mobile LG Optimus F6.
For those of you who may have just purchased one or need one rooted and or unlocked here is how to do it.
Root:
Download MotoChopper.zip that is attatched at the bottom.
Then place your phone in Debugging mode. Also check unknown sources in security.
Unzip the MotoChopper and look for "run.bat"
Once that is all done you should have root access.
Unlock:
I use Blowfish Unlocks. You can use who ever you prefer.
Dial *#06# and that will be your IMEI number.
Next submit for the code and wait.
When it comes back use: SIM_UNLOCK=00000000000000
Now to enter the code you have to put in a non supported sim and dial 2945#*500#
Then choose Network Unlock and enter your code. If the first code doesnt work do not panic.
You have 10 attempts and you usually get back 5 different codes. Try them until one works. But to be sure double check that you submitted the right IMEI to begin with.
Enjoy
works
Although lacking some instruction. You must have lg support software on PC and drivers installed (Google)

Correct... here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2210213
What I did after root: Uninstalled all the bloatware... added beats audio, and wifi tether...
Pretty cool phone... I sure do miss my HTC one S
I already sold mine but it was very good. The battery life on it was great. But I moved on to the Note 2 Tmo and hopefully I can sell the Note 2 and get the Note 3

Question about the rooting
Is the rooting all that is needed to enable tethering without the paying of an additional fee to T-Mobile? Basically being held hostage....... and will the phone be capable of OS updating in the future?

Do you or anyone know how to un-root the phone aftter running the motochopper? I've been looking everyone on the web and cannot find this. I'm worried in case there is ever a hardware issue that we need to unroot to get serviced.

what's the difference T-mobile v MetroPCS
Metro sold me the F6 based on the fact it works on the T-mobile networks LTE. However, I am having a hard time living with an unrooted phone so I'm hoping to use motochopper to root. But someone said it will not work. Is there really that much difference between those sold by T-mobile and those from Metro?
I "upgraded" from a Motion to have bigger screen, and now I find out that may have actually been a step down? WTF!?
All I want to do is unbloat and get rid of "insufficient storage" errors. Shouldn't be so tedious!

You can root with the vroot method.
There's some questions about what it does exactly but it does work. I should point out that the program and its cousin program are under community investigation due to possibly shady dealings with pulling and pushing files. Its cousin program (kango or something) Has been shown to pull imeid off phones and apparently send them, unencrypted, to a Chinese server.... but it's the only thing I've found to be a proven working root.
Can't unlock boot loader so no custom roms but you can debloat.
I've discovered that both my l9 and my f6 hold onto the storage allotment for moved downloads...
Not sure if you get my drift...
If you download a file to internal and move it to sd it still shows up in "downloads" when you check the storage in your settings.
To solve it open settings/storage/unmount sd and then open downloads under internal storage and delete files you know you moved.

With this "vroot", would it be safe to root while disconnected from networks to prevent unauthorized sharing of imei?
I thought of trying that myself but never got around to it.
