Unrevoked ecc... Do not work
The current HBOOT of the 2.2.1 RUU or OTA can not be rooted. Try flashing a shipped ruu of eclair (2.1) and try rooting, then flash wilddpuzzle or danne_jo's safe ruu pack.
So is there no way to root 2.2.1 ?
still no way to root 2.2.1 on wildfire?

Wildfire froyo ROOT***
"REQUIRE S-OFF can be achieved only by an XTC clip
After a fruitfull search i found that this is the only method currently available for rooting wildfire.
First of all let me say I'm not the developer of this steps..
To do the rooting you must have your Wildfire with S-OFF, HBOOT 1.02.0002 and Android 2.2.1 . You can check it by booting into HBOOT (power on your phone by holding the VOLUME DOWN + POWER button) .This method is strictly for the 2.2.1 owners. How you can turn the S-OFF is your headache, you can try the alpharev (ask the team if they can get you a 2.0 test version... ) or you can wait for Unrevoked 3.33 or you can straight off go to market and hunt for XTC clip. Either way, try it and don't attempt to anything before you get S-OFF. Actually the notorious S-ON flag is the cause rooting wildfire is such a pain in the a**.
What I have to correct is "The only way to keep S-OFF is using an XTC clip (as i did) there is no version of alpha rev available for wildfire yet and unrevoked 3.33 is also not available.."
If you are successful in keeping S-OFF kindly follow this steps........
I used to have this
and I converted it into this
or this =)
Anyways, here is how you can root HTC wildfire 2.2.1 and get htc wildfire Android 2.3
What you need ?
HTC wildfire with S-OFF , HBOOT 1.01.0002 , OS Froyo 2.2.1

Disclaimer
I am not responsible if your phone gets bricked, by following the process you are voiding your warranty and significant damage may be caused to your device.
Its all for educational purposes only, if you are dumb enough to screw somewhere then I will be the one who will be laughing at you.
Software are unpredictable in nature, one may/may not act as predicted especially in case of rooting (personal experience). Hence my friend, tread carefully.
in short,
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR STUPIDITY.
Step 1 - Installing the USB drivers
Download USB drivers and extract them on desktop. Turn off your wildfire and boot into HBOOT by holding the VOLUME DOWN + POWER button. Connect your phone to your PC and it will show "drivers installing" or similar there for Android device. When prompted , install the drivers by going to device manager and browsing to the folder where you extracted the drivers. Once installed, disconnect and reboot your phone normally.
Now you need to install the Android bootloader interface. Connect it to your HTC wildfire to the PC and it will ask for drivers again, now go to device manager, click on unknown device,
click on update driver -> install from specific location -> No i will choose to install -> choose Android phone and click on adb interface -> click next -> when asked to install click on continue anyway, just install them.
Once done you will see your phone recognized as "Android bootloader interface". Now disconnect your phone and go into
settings -> applications - > development - > enable USB Debugging.
Congratulations, the first step is complete.
Step 2 - Downgrading from Android 2.2.1 Froyo to Android 2.1 Eclair
Download the RUU rom which is an original stock rom. Plug your phone into the PC and set it to "Charge through USB". Double click RUU rom .exe. Follow the on screen instructions and then let it install. Your phone will reboot into stock HTC 2.1 This will be the last time you will be seeing it though.
The HBOOT version will be now 0.80.0002 (check it by powering on your phone by holding the VOLUME DOWN + POWER button) Once done disconnect your phone.
Step 3 - Gaining root using UnrEVOked , get clockworkmod and set your phone free
Download the test version of unrevoked. Let me repeat, DO NOT USE UNREVOKED 3.32 as it will lead to CID errors or to be precise this error
"validation error backup cid is missing"
This may be caused as the 3.32 doesnot support HBOOT 0.82.0002. Hence You need specific test version of Unrevoked 3.2 to do the job. Download it, save it on desktop, and run it. Now connect your phone and the rooting will start. Once donw, you will have Clockworkmod recovery installed on your phone. Reboot your phone now (using the VOLUME UP/DOWN key for navigation and clicking using TRACKBALL, the POWER button takes you back in menus). Once rebooted, you will see the superuserapp in your phone and congratulations, your phone is successfully rooted
Step 4 - Installing Cyanogenmod 7 or Android Gingerbread 2.3.3
Download the Cyanogenmod 7 with google apps and save it on desktop, connect your phone as USB diskdrive and transfer both zip files on SD card. Once done, reboot your phone into ClockworkMod Recovery (booting by holding the VOLUME DOWN + POWER button and clicking on recovery)
Once the device boots into the ClockworkMod Recovery, use the side VOLUME buttons to move around, and either the POWER button or the TRACKBALL to select.
Select the option to Wipe data/factory reset.
Then select the option to Wipe cache partition.
Select Install zip from sdcard.
Select Choose zip from sdcard.
choose update-cm-7.0.0-buzz-signed.zip & Let it install.
Once done, Select Install zip from sdcard.
Select Choose zip from sdcard, choose gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip
Once the installation has finished, to get back to the main menu by clicking the POWER button and select the Reboot system now option.
Congrats..The HTC Wildfire should now boot into CyanogenMod.
Enjoy Android 2.3.3

PLZ HIT THANKS IF YOU LYK THIS"................
doesn't work of course
without the chip its imposible
im so lost with this, so you can't root the wildfire if you have already upgraded to Froyo?
wildfire 2.2.1 root
here's how i managed to do it :
1. s-off with alpharevx beta
2. root with superoneclick 1.9.5
if you want to flash clockwork recovery (needed to flash custom roms like cyanogenmod)
3.download clockwork recovery.img for wildfire
4.copy recovery.img to root of sd card (must be named recovery.img)
5.install root toolbox from market
6.erase current recovery (root toolbox->advanced->erase recovery)
7.flash recovery.img (root toolbox->advanced->flash recovery)
8.if you want to flash cyanogenmod you can find a guide at
wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=HTC_Wildfire:_Full_Update_Guide
i have an htc desire running fryo
i have rooted it using unrevoked3
i can see and have used superuser icon on phone
but still titanium backup pro cant recognize whether my phone is rooted or not.busybox not able to install even when clicking on problems in titanium(thru net as well as manually)
i need to delete stock apps from phone,so i tried using adb shell on win7 as well as android terminal emulator on phone.either ways i get directory not found or read-only file system error
cant get to remove these apps through root explorer as well
i tried installing clockworkrecovery for nandroid backup but there are two wayts according to:
wiki link
first method(thru rom manager) is not working as not able to download
second method requires alpharev which inturn requires a safety nandroid backup(which requires clockwork recovery mod)
is there any other method for installing clockwork recovery method??
There is only 1 way to permanently flash a recovery and you need to be s-off to do it. You have to use the fastboot method or use the android flash utility. To remove system apps you have to be s-off anyway so there's no avoiding it.
As I was saying, rom manager temporarily fake flashes the recovery but for the desire its the old recovery 2.5.0.7.

Hey there,
havin some trouble with the Busybox Installer.
When i start "Root Check" to check my root status its going to say me everything rooted!
tryin to install a new busybox (got 1.18.4 on my phone higher or lower version doenst matter!) a error messages pops up and says "failed to copy over busybox in /system/xbin/. if i try a second time "Failed to set permissions to busybox installer".
Now my root is turned "off". When i check again with Root Check again its says no root installed. I have to restart to get back root. Also if i dont restart the phone stucks a few minutes later...
Desire GSM Branded

Hello,
I am new in this forum, but I have a question.
My device is HTC Desire 816 with unlocked bootloader and CWM recovery (I followed the manual in this forum)
After I booted into CWM I installed SuperSU binaries (at theory) without errors. I clicked reboot now. It asked me if I want to root yes or no. I chose yes. But however, when I booted into the device and started SuperSU (after an update from the Google Play Store) it said that I don't have binaries.
Please help.
(Also, my Android version is 5.0.1)

Try flashing this version of SuperSu.
It worked!
It worked, thanks a lot! But now I have another problem. I am trying to open wp-mod.ko to get access to the system folder. But, however when I do the command
su
insmod /storage/(something)/wp-mod.ko
It says insmod: Can't open wp-mod.ko
I have tried many types of file path but no result. I have copied the file both on my internal memory and in my SD card. Please help.
P.S. I am using Terminal Emulator by Jack Palevich
Finally, we can get our loved supersu following this steps:
1) Root with KingRoot.- Download KingRoot's apk, install it and root your device.
2) Install SuperSU, open it and allow root permission.
3) Install ZL-lockeddualrecovery.
4) Download Flashable BusyBox, boot into recovery and flash it. (I recomend Stericson's Busybox)
5) Download Flashable SuperSU, boot into recovery and flash it.
6) Get this app anywhere you want --> SUPER-SUME PlayStore Link Works v7.3 & v7.8. Run it and touch big blue button.
7) Go to SuperSu app and normal update SuperSu binary. if doesn´t work, do the step 5 again.
Reboot and DONE!
Hi, i can't run this method. i checked everything and it's all right, i rooted with kingroot , installed supersu and granted root acces, installed the adb drivers and run xzlockeddualrecovery installer, i tried all the options and none works, it stucks at waiting for device in first step
