It is possible to root without flashing kernel.. But if you follow the steps on a XDA topic about how to flash a kernel, it is very easy, even for newbies

[Q] Flash ROM and Unlocking

1) Do I need unlocking the phone first then flash ROM?
2) Will flash ROM automatically unlocking the phone?
Thanks un advance!

Flashing rom does not unlock phones. Unlocking is to use other sims

No you can do in any order...either flash ROM then unlock or unlock then flash ROM....Flashing a ROM will NOT unlock it nor remove the unlock once done. Once unlocked always unlocked.

type this keypad *#*#7378423#*#* and under bootloader see if it is bootloader unlock allowed :"Yes"
if its YES then you can unlock your bootloader bro
Note: Unlocking bootloader makes you loose your warranty but still you can relock it back
You can root your device even if it is Bootloader Locked or Unlocked..
try it out and search in google bro you'd find better solutions than mine :good:

For rooting .42 firmware and below use Zergrush method by Doomlord (file named DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su.zip )
For rooting .62 firmware and above use Eroot (it's in chinese, but is easy to understand)
No need for unlocking bootloader, this is just for root stock firmware

Why would you want to unlock the bootloader? This phone is anyways open and can be easily rooted by pc or even within the phone.

You should be able to root without wiping your data by using Sunshine to S-off your device (s-off locked option). Your bootloader will remain locked.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/how-to/guide-root-optionally-s-off-radio-t3373025
But sunshine costs 25$, and if you just want root, you're able to unlock your bootloader and don't care about s-off, then just backup your data and use the free method which does wipe everything.
