Hi guys,
I bought HTC wildfire S... Its a branded Australian version as i see 'NEXT' network logo on phone and box...
It has been unlocked coz i am using a different network in Asia...
Since it doesn't come in warranty, i want to Root it, and start installing custom roms on it..i know much about HTC sensation coz i own that too and have good knowledge of Android stuff...
Can someone tell me what should i do to Root it?
I saw in forums here that unlocking bootloader is via HTCdev and xtc clip...
I don't care about loosing warranty stuff but i want to enable ROOT and flash custom roms and remove the NEXT network animation on boot and remove all bloatwares..
Unlock bootloader and then root the phone. tutorials are in the forums.

Bookmarked... thanks... Will give it a go later..
I'm noob here... So, I'll apologize for my noob questions.
I have looked into other posts about CID unlocking. I have a general idea of what it is, but can't find a post about how to perform CID unlock on Xperia arc... Most of the CID unlock posts are for HTC phones. Is it not required for Xperia Arc or I just didn't look hard enough?
This is my first time trying to flash a custom rom on a phone, so quite nervous about it.
FYI:
This phone also has never been flashed before.
Afaik, cid unlock is htc nomenclature for bootloader unlock. If your phone's sim-free or carrier unlocked then use the SE\Sony site. If not then look for threads about unlocking bootloader.

Okay. Thank you!
I was wondering, if now that the CID exploit was found if there would be any attempt to unlock the bootloader without using the HTC site. (i ask cuz i see most questions like this not answered, but people routing other to current x-factor exploit which requires htcdev.)
I think you're in the wrong forum. This forum is for the tegra 3 international One X
Hi,
I was upgrading my HBOOT from 1.16 to 1.36 which i successfully did. So now my phone is relocked and while I'm trying to unlock my bootloader I see that htcdev.com is down!!!
So now I'm stuck with a locked bootloader and no custom recovery to flash new roms. Any suggestions other than waiting for htcdev.com to come back online?
Many thanks!
R: [Q] Stuck because www.htcdev.com is down!!

In case the thread markb63 posted doesn't work, and you have to search through your email, here's the email account from HTCDev:
TC-Unlockbootloader[at]htc.com (replace [at] with @)
htcdev is up again, try now
Unstable.
The site has been up and down for the last few days. i had some issues on friday but by sat all was in order.

And don't bump this thread every 30 minutes, first its not allowed and second not necessary. Read up in the many provided guides in the general section. Seems to me you didn't do any homework at all !
Cheers.
