Hi everyone,
I'm desperate, I tried everything and can't root my Wildfire S. I unlock the bootloader, that was easy, but even with the unlocked bootloader I can't install a custom recovery, or root, or install a custom rom... nothing.
When I try to root my device always throws me write-permission problems in the internal memory (read-only internal memory).
When I try to install a custom recovery I get the error "main version is older" and only lets me restart.
When I try to install a custom rom I get the error "No image or wrong image".
I have read all the tutorials on the forum, used these tutorials files but the result is always the same: nothing.
I appreciate any help, advice,... whatever.
Thank you very much for the help and for reading me.
Regards

If you are not able to root with the program...use HTC Super Tool v3 to root and flash CWM with the WFS auto installer

The problem is that what you've already tried is not obvious to us, only to you. You really not given us much information to go by. Theq86 was trying to help you, so please try to keep a kind tone.

Thanks but the problem persists, I can't root mi device and I and don't know why...
You already tryed this ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1439466
You can stop do anything else until CWM recovery flashed, this is required step.
In my manager when you plug your phone into USB select HTC sync mode I have reports that makes the rooting and cwm process work properly

- If root: make wipe dalvik cache, works fine for me, has respected all my apps.
- If not: make factory reset
Congrats for your new root status.

Hey guys ,
This is my first post and I was directed here as the experts will be around . I need your help guys to upgrade my phone Galaxy nexus . I have never did any thing on it . It has the following information that might help you guys to help me
Android version 4.0.4
Kernel version 3.0.8-gda6252b
build number imm76k.i9250jple1
I saw some phones that are rooted and have this wonderful images of Roms . I need to try them but I don't know how
I have downloaded the toolkit program but I dont know what ROM shall I select ?? which one is the best ?
Please guys , teach me how and let me start his journey with you
waiting your heeeeeeelp
start here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1812959
recs for a n00b
Since you've never rooted or used a custom ROM before I suggest starting with either mROM or MMuzzy's ROMs. They are close to stock but will get you to Android version 4.2.1
mROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1763823
MMuzzy: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762846
Remember to MAKE A NANDROID. After you use the toolkit to unlock, root, etc. boot into recovery and MAKE A BACKUP. Also, when you root/unlock it factory resets your phone, so anything not on the SD card that you want to keep, backup to your computer.
This is the thread which completely helped when I was new to rooting and all this stuff. No further help was needed. The methods are very well explained here.

Thanks guys for your active response ..
I followed every step until I plug my mobile in the fast mode , my computer asks me for drivers .!!!
I have tried to ignore it and I continued the step to flush the ROM , but finally it gives me a message as " Waiting for your Device " >>
Guys ..any idea ??

From where I can get these drivers ???
I'm glad you're using fastboot.
Search for naked drivers.
Or use the guide in my Sig or stickied at the top of this forum.
Sorry, at work on mobile. No time to link.
Thanks guys ,
I have tried to use the toolkit software to get the drivers !! and I managed but still wont't work .
Q : Is it possible to install a ROM if the phone is locked ??
bcz i didn't unlocked yet ??

No. Need custom recovery and an unlocked phone to install the recovery.

1. use these drivers.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379875
2. no you need custom recovery and unlcoked bootloader to flash roms
3. read one of these threads to understand more about rooting, and flashing roms so you dont mess up your phone

To the OP, use the search function (or Google) - it's all out there!!
To everyone else, don't spoon feed them - let them learn it for themselves. It's better, and more rewarding, then being told everything

agreed..
Dont rush the root
efrant and jubakuba have both written guides. I suggest not using the tool kit until you know how to use adb/fastboot.

You just got the device.. Stop messing with it and return it to the store .. Exchange it before you do anymore damage. Simple.. Easy.... Requires no thought at all.

Well, I don't know that information, because I never use it. I only unlocked it by imei with a unlock code. I bought it used and in working conditions and then I sell it to a friend. After 3 days it began with the problem and we don't know how to solve.
At the begining I tought hardware problems with the power buttom... something like stun button, because I had a galaxy s2 with that problem, but it is not possible because I can put it in download mode and it do all the process with odin.

You need to download/flash cf-autoroot using Odin for root access.
Here is the download link: http://download.chainfire.eu/354/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-hltetmo-hltetmo-smn900t.zip
This zip file also contains Odin, so just unzip all files to a new folder in windows and odin flash
the cf-autoroot TAR file, reboot the phone and your good to go.
Good luck!
How did your rooting go? Success?
