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

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.

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

now i cant even reboot restart my phone its stuck

see the post before You need to sign the rom with HTC keys, not with test keys ...
I have already rooted using Paul method. There are three files. How do I test this rom? Which file to use?
The zip with my nickname u use. First...... Then when getting tired of pink and Overclockining then you use The patch..Then no more Overclockining only underclocking is working and no more "svanse mobil" thats no more gay colours..
Thx
Pb99img.zip is for unrooting

Have you changed your H-Boot or s-off your phone?
I think you haven't partitioned your SD card that rom you trying to install use's app2sd+ witch need a ext3/4 on SD card.
witch when you start your phone its not getting the partition, thats why its not booting up.
H-Boot is the partition table the stock is 250MB I dont really no much about that because I have never wanted to change it

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:

So you have ClockWorkMod recovery. Now, Cyanogenmod is a ROM. It's the thing that replaces your current operating system. To install it, you put it on your sd-card, you boot in clockworkmod recovery, you backup your current ROM, you do a factory data reset+wipe cache+ wipe dalvik cache, then you select "Install zip from sd-card", then select the Cyanogenmod zip.
I usually don't respond to PM's because posting in a thread gives other people the opportunity to help, or learn from your mistakes.
Next time, post in a thread.
Thanks you.

You can find all informations on this forum... all you need to do is to search & read instead of asking boring and tiresome questions because of which every senior member of this forum will vomit...
Your command must be 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'
If you only use 'fastboot flash boot.img', you will have to reflash every time your device is powered on.
