Just setup all the drivers and stuff and then run revolutionary. Goldcard isnt necessary its up to you.

lol, jmcclue already did, but here it is again. This is basically what you have to do:
1. Install these drivers
2. Download revolutionary from here. Unzip the file and run the exe.
Read the guide that jmcclue provided if you want to have another resource to follow.

Lol the guide i posted is a step by step guide with all the drivers u need and a guide how to install them plus su. If u cant figure it out with that guide then u shouldnt bother at all,

as far as I know the unlock method of htc dev doesn't give you s-off (which seems to be confirmed by yourself saying you're still s-on). S-on means "security on" what in other words means you won't be able to flash a custom recovery (if I'm not mistaken here).
You said that you have read every thread here about this - so you should know as it's mentioned all over this forum (that htc dev isn't the best method...). For how - and if - you still could get there I''m not too sure but you probably need to do an RUU, downgrade etc to do the suggested method (of the two corresponding threads here) instead of the htc dev thing.
But as I said: I_m not sure if you still can - probably someone has experience here?

No, no. He will be able to flash a custom recovery if he unlocked it using HTCDev, he won't, however, be able to modify the internal storage while the phone is booted.

ah, yes, thx for clearifying - so you can't get control over the partitions or what does it mean?
The htc dev method gives a different output to revo or alpha, if it says s-on with unlocked somewhere then fastboot is the only method that will work for flashing a custom recovery and although some things like the revovery partition are unlocked for flashing, some important things like radio aren't hence the s still being on........
I presume if it says s-on and locked then yes you have probably gone wrong somewhere and locked it again.
Theres not many people on here that have used the htc dev unlock tool i don't think so support might be a bit thin as we don't know much about it, try running through the htc dev unlock method again to hopefully get it unlocked again and then flash cwm by the fastboot method.
If it says locked then i can't think of any other way, downgrading to hboot 1.01.0001in order to use revolutionary may work but i'm not sure if you can or not as i have personally never done it.

i already tried buzz downgrade a long ago.i used the method as it is told on the website..:good:
but don't know why it doesn't work properly i have no idea why this don't work either. i read number of threats regarding it and i tried to google
with the errors that came with buzz downgrade. something just goes wrong with it in the first step but it just doesn't get completed. the phone does not respond when i ran the buzz downgade utility even after installing the htc driver from the buzz downgrade itself (don't remember exactly that it is explained over the internet). i did clearly everything whatever is written in the threats about how to use the buzz downgrade but in vain i stopped it trying.
i still have the setup of buzz downgrade in my laptop.:silly:
but why it doesn't work i don't know..and you know what i read that threat too in the past.
may be it is the problem of the bootloader that it is locked..

During your procedure,did you ever achieve the S-OFF ?
You need to downgrade from 1.02.0000 to 1.01.0001 to use Revolutionary.
Try this guide.
If you want revolutionary will automatically download the recovery and install it on your phone.
After gaining S-OFF if you can't get Unrevoked working in order to gain root.
Use this or try SuperOneClick.
Good luck:good:
Try the link in my Sig, it should help. First, I recommend running an RUU and relocking your bootloader using fastboot oem lock.
Then try the debranding and rooting guide in the Sig.

this is the thing i already tried a long ago. when the wildfire was updated to 2.2 version of android ,it changed into "wildfire (buzz) 2.2.1, with HBOOT 1.01.0002"..now as the threats i read there in the past, i can't run the revolutionary or any other method. because the htc has applied some sort of lock on the new bootloader. revolutionary gave some error which i don't remember as per the threats. in the mean time nobody able to find the solution of this new 1.01.0002 bootloader unlocking. then i that time i heard of htc dev website and in that time i used that website to unlock my bootloader and alas it got unlocked and my bootloader has been changed to 1.02.000.. but now i again find that my bootloader is locked may be.. how i don;t know about that.. i tried to run that method of buzz downgrade number of times thoroughly again and again as if u read in the thread above it give some sort of error and does't do anything for me. so i asked what else i do then this , again do i need go to htc dev website to unlock bootloader ??

Click to expand...

I never tried htcdev method so i have no idea about that.You should probably try their method once again,if that doesn't work,use the Gold card tool to downgrade the HBOOT using this guide.
Code:
Step 1: run step1.bat from the package. This will downgrade your MISC partition to allow for the RUU downgrade.
At the end, GoldCardTool will start up, to allow you to create a goldcard which you will need before starting Step 2
Step 2: run step2.bat from the package. This will downgrade your ROM version to HTC WWE Froyo for Wildfire (unbranded).
If you get a Customer ID error while doing this, your goldcard is not working!
Create a new goldcard and re-run step2
or follow usaff22's guide.

You didn’t answer me,What is the information on your HBOOT screen?
Power off the phone and ensure the phone is completely off. Then hold POWER + VOL-DOWN buttons together until the white HBOOT screen appears. Tell us your HBOOT info.
You are getting Customer ID error,It’s a bad Goldcard.You will have to create a new Goldcard.
>Connect it to your computer using an SD Adapter and format the card to FAT32 file system once again.
>Redownload and reextract the package.
>Follow this guide to create the Goldcard.It’s a bit more detailed.
Before doing anything download CCleaner and TFC and run them.TFC will ask you to reboot.Reboot the PC.
Now make the Goldcard.Good luck.

not really clear to me also - if I got him right he initially has been on 1.01.0002 (because of the Android update). Because there hasn't been a possibility by revolutionary yet at that time and for that bootloader he unlocked it at the htcdev site what made it 1.02.000.
But I'm a bit confused, too, so a detailed information of the fastboot screen would really help (or a pic).

As it says,your Bootloader is still LOCKED.
After using HTC dev unlock tool your HBOOT 1.01.0002 got changed to 1.02.000 while Bootloader is still locked.
i.e you probably missed some steps.

As I told you in the other thread, don't use YouTube videos. Read the AAHK manual. But either way, aren't you S-OFF? I remember that you were, and I told you that you were already rooted. What does it say when you reboot holding power and volume-down?

My point about the video is that you don't need to check the drivers thing. AAHK installs drivers for you. Anyway, it's a moot point.
You don't need to do anything to root it; you're already S-OFF. Do you have a recovery? Find out by navigating to the "RECOVERY" option with the volume buttons in hboot and selecting it with the power button. If there's nothing there you'll need to flash one; look at the PDF guide in post #7 of the Ace Think Tank guide. There's a section titled "S-OFF no recovery" starting near the bottom of page 8 or 9. Then, just flash a ROM from that recovery.
Note that I don't know of the ROM you referenced. Where did you get it?

Well, I hope you don't need to come to the IRC Channel for support, as I am an OP there...and FYI, the expert is not the guy who did that video but the dev you programmed the tool. The video is just a quick tutorial and not quite recommended.
I was not concerned, just asked what was going on as you were not clear at all.

The 4EXTupdater is an APK, so you have to install it directly in your rom with a file explorer as long as you are already rooted, otherwise you won't be able.
To flash recovery you have to be in fastboot usb. Hboot won't take it directly. The instructions are in the guide in my signature.
Do not rename the rom zip file. It is not an update but a whole rom, so you have to flash it in recovery (custom) from install zip from sdcard.
Use the guide in my signature, you have clear instructions for all that...:good:

Have you tried searching the forums?
I'm not sure if there is a method that will root HBOT 1.06. A good place to start is confirm that fact, and then look for a way to downgrade your HBOOT.

Hi i have a htc desire a8181 and i need to root it due to memory issue ... if someone can guide me how to do it as i have no clue abt androids and dont know where to start ... kindly help me out
I always recommend this one, start at the beginning, read it many times before you do anything.
In future, if you run into trouble, remember this

Do you want your phone to not get bricked during the process because you didn't read, and didn't know what was happening and what you were doing?
Then spend about half an hour for this reading. It will do you well.
dude seriously the moment i looked into the details of this rooting thing ... it just popped up in ma mind that noway m gonna do it ... i cant do it ... fears man

It's not hard. It's like bungee jumping. You are affraid at first. But then the fear goes away, and you end up enjoying it. Yes, things can go wrong, but as long as you read and know what to do, then everything will be fine.
Plus, we are here to help you. If you want, we will guide you through the entire process step by step.
First thing's first. Boot in bootloader (Power off, then hold Power +VolDown), and post everything that is written above "Fastboot".
aww thanks man ... much appreciated ... it states

1.Install these drivers on your PC.
2.Download revolutionary from here and extract the zip into a folder. Also make sure that you fill out all of the information on that page so that you can get the beta key. Once the key is generated copy it. (highlight it, right click, copy).
3.Plug the phone in (make sure USB Debugging is enabled). Also the phone should just be booted into android when you plug it in.
4.After the phone is plugged in and recognized by your PC, run the revolutionary.exe. It will ask for the beta key. Right click in the command prompt window and paste the key that you copied earlier. Let it run and do its thing. If it asks to install a custom recovery say yes. (doesnt really matter what you say tbh, as you will probably need to install another one later to create a partition).
5.After its done, unplug the phone and boot it up. Read abaaaabbbb63's partitioning guide (in his signature) to install 4ext recovery and create a 512mb - 1gb 4ext partition.
6.Go to the desire development section and pick a rom. I would recommend milwilds redux rom for stabilty, and reliable speed. Copy it your sdcard.
7.Go into recovery Wipe>format all partitions except sdcard. Then go to install zip from sdcard>choose zip from sdcard>browse to the rom you copied and flash it.
8.Reboot. Profit.

You go in recovery by booting in hboot (Power+Vol Down), and selecting recovery. In recovery, select "install zip from sd-card", and select the zip I gave you above. That will give you root access, and you will be able to install 4ext through the app.
In recovery, select "install zip from sd-card", nothing is happening ... just black screen with revolutionary written

The information you posted is from the bootloader screen, so it must still be able to start in bootloader mode?
Use bortak's troubleshooting guide stickied to the top of Q&A
Do not use any of those RUUs in that link. Search for the 2.3.3 GB RUU
Do you still want to have a custom ROM? If so all you needed to do was full wipe in recovery and install a different ROM, no need for RUU first.
thanks bro
yep its seem in bootloader page
why i press the vol- and power buton not go to fast boot mode when phone is off?? and go too this page? -_-
