Hey Guys, I got my phone s-off'ed by a phone technician who used a tool to do it. My phone is running android 2.3.3 stock rom. I was just wondering if you guys know how I can root it? Also i am trying to flash my phone with mike's rom (Android Revolution HD) and I can't find the option to install rom from sd card for some reason :s
My first thread here guys so go easy please.
Thanks
just google or go to dev section... thr is a thread fr the steps

Which version of 2.3.3?!! Check it...!!!
Then go to Desire HD Android Development part from this web site..!!!!
First search for downgrade...!! cause before doing that you can't setup any rom...!!!!
But cause it's S-off Check your phone before doing any work. Turn it off. Press volume down and power key...!!! then go to recovery mode...!!!! Check if it have choices like wiping data or install from zip card...!!! Don't do any job just check it...!!!!
It may be rooted righ now....!!!!!
In recovery mode it says on the top line S-Off. I can't find any way to install zip or wipe data on that menu. Does this mean that I have to downgrade and root? Or is there a root availble for 2.3.3 that has S-Off?
you have to downgrade first.
here's a guide.
goldcard needed only if your device is branded.
After that, you can root your device using this guide.
Don't lose hopes mate, read the forum and try to understand fundamentals. avoid doing things haphazardly.

Hi all!
I was just wondering...
Can i root, or use some adb commands, fastboot, etc from like an asus transformer to flashor root some other phones or other tablets?
If this is made posible i don't have drag my netbook to my friends or work to flash&root their phones.
And if android is allready there i suppose adb fastboot ps neuter drivers are allready available?
My asus tf300t rooted hydro rom
My htc desire hd rooted cm7 rom
Both have an command prompt app.
So if i wanna root like an htc sensation, can i connect it to my phone&tablet and use the commandprompt fastboot to push the recovery and root to the sensation?... And why not? Lol
Thanks

Wrong forum....this is for Desire HD and not sensation. Anyway, the guide in my signature will help you as an insight for flashing and rooting HTC phones. Make sure that you check Sensation forums before applying something. The tools for the Inspire / Desire HD might brick your device if it is not an ACE...:good:

I have absolutely no idea how you would do that; if you figure it out, you're significantly smarter than I am. AAHK is so easy to use (as long as you read the manual carefully) that doing what you're proposing just seems unnecessary.

Lol i have no clue either...
But why do we still need windows, linux to crack, hack, modify our android devices?
It would be so much easier for me to use my dhd as an device that is able to root,modify other phones, instead of a windows laptop
I think that android is an full OS, so why not use that.
It would be fun to open the commandprompt on my dhd and connect another phone to my dhd and root it, install recovery etc.
I know it cant work..but why not?
When i connect my dhd with the usb cable to my asus transformer they wont pair either. Its to bad i really would like that to work. So i can copy my music from tf300 2 dhd or dhd 2 tf300 without windows or wifi.

You will need a PC to root your phone...you can´t do it with another Android device.

To bad.
I wanna get rid of all the desktops and laptops, and only use my android tablets and phones.
But i will keep them for awhile longer. Till someone develops a tool for android to connect to android.
Thanks glevitan

I have searched and searched to find some useful way to root my One x running the stock Jelly Bean Rom but nothing I found has worked. I read as far as unlocking the bootloader you do it the same way as you would on Ice Cream Sandwich, so I followed the unlock method as shown on OneXroot.com but my phone doesn't respond to the exploiter. I've also tried running the 2.20 ruu from AT&T but I should have known that method wasn't going to work from the beginning. Has anyone successfully rooted their One X after updating to Jelly Bean, if so how did you do it. If I need to downgrade to ICS in order to root my phone let me know how because I'm not having any luck. Again I tried to search for a solution instead of posting this but nothing useful came up. Most of the time the results were unresolved questions. So in short, I need help with unlocking the bootloader and then rooting my phone which is running 4.1.1 Jelly Bean.
You have the AT&T version of one or the International one? If AT&T, this isn't the correct forum for you...
If you have the international one x (Quad Core) then follow the steps on htcdev.com to unlock your bootloader!
