Unrevoked3 is now available for wildfire !
The team seems like they dont have access to a legend, so does anyone know if the same method for wildfire works on legend too ?
Just wondering..

I think we should try it for Legend..it should work...
what is unrevoked3 btw ?
1click-root
awww this really pisses me off, they promised Legend users that they'd get root through the next version of unrEVOked even before the wildfire was even released!
Problem is they don't have access to the hardware itself aka the Legend....
so does that means its not working...has anyone tried this on Legend?

I am ready to donate my legend...any takers can approach me friends...
At modaco is the method for soft root, which is primarly used for htc wildfire, but it suppose to work on htc legend aswell(did't tried myself).
http://android.modaco.com/content/h...gets-access-to-root-only-apps-with-soft-root/
When I googled unrevoked, i found that they made 1-click method for wildfire, so perhaps this method would work on legend too. I don't need it because I have a rooted phone but if you have the guts you can try it
http://unrevoked.com/#phones
EDIT: I just found out that the post on modaco was made by zabaknilesh
Any brave souls out there to try it on thier Legend with chance of briking it or would the tool refuse to flash unknown phones?
Good luck lol
Tried it few days back,the tool recognised the phone as Legend but refuzed to flash as it is not supported.

Hey guys,
I'm new here, but I was wondering if you could help me. My HTC Legend is still running on 2.1, and I really want froyo. I'm thinking of rooting my Legend, but I first wanted to know how hard it is to unroot my device (for the OTA from HTC) and which ROM I should pick, I'm thinking of the Cyanogen Azure but maybe you guys know a better one.
Thanks!
Should be moved to "General"

Yes go for Azure best choice.
Yes it's easy to unroot with goldcard.
Just look in the forum and u will find all u need within 3 pages for sure.

Thanks
Thanks for the advice, I think I'm going to root it tomorrow
Does unrevoked know that froyo root doesn't work on wildfire?
I mean when u look at their changelog it says:
v3.2:
Added support for Froyo builds on all supported devices (thanks to Sebastian Krahmer)
So do they know that it doesn't work?
Really want to root : /
it works
nah it says it worked but nothing has changed on my phone just took like ages to laod up when it was done for some reason so no it doesnt work
I know it doesn't work... But do people at underevoked know it doesn't work?
maybe
well it says for froyo but doesn't say which phones. i will send them an email ( they wont reply )

It says on all supported devices and wildfire is in them... I'm not trying to rush them or anything I just wonder if they even know it doesn't work....
Arffff, I just Buy a Htc Wildfire and IN my head i thinked install rom before froyo update but I'm a stupid man so I installed froyo before and now I'm owned, so I Wait
Really hope someone hacks it soon
Should have rooted it when 2.1 was on it and then install wildpuzzle 2.2

Yes. That would be the right (and for now the only) way to get root on Wildfire Froyo.
for now unrevoked works at EVO 4G it will release tomorrow
right after that unrevoked will works on wildfire support

thank you so much xda for this news, you are amazing, thank you so much
Well i am happy that a person or a. Group of people like unrevoked want to give it a try and crack the hboot 1.000.10. Those people know for sure more then an average user like me.
Take a look at there irc group...... its interesting what you read there!

Guess what guys? Alpharev just updated their S-Off thing from 1.5 to 1.8, to support more devices, still not wildfire yet, but hopefully soon!
This still means that they're still working on it
So It's gonna happen then? I did the same got my wildfire 2 days ago then updated ota,its my own fault too eager,should of
Read up on it first hopefully it will get sorted

Hey guys,
As you may well know, the Wildfire isn't the only phone that has been put through "HTC's All Purpose Anti-Hack Machine". The HTC Thunderbolt is massivly locked down as well, however I just read an article that details how to root it already. Now I'm no expert, so hence I'm posting it here so that others can have a look. Is this worth anything?
ORIGINAL ARTICLE: http://www.androidguys.com/2011/03/20/htc-thunderbolt-rooted/
*EDIT*
New article found that doesn't mention emmc - any better?
http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...bolt-instructions-by-team-andirc-v1-20110318/
htc wildfire has no emmc, so the exploit isnt valid for it
Ok, was just a thought anyway.

i had this idea too, but i decided to ask the ones who developed this exploit, if it could be possible to port it to a wildfire, buth they explained me there was no way, as our phone hasnt eMMC
http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...bolt-instructions-by-team-andirc-v1-20110318/
That is very similar to the first article, however it doesn't mention eMMc? Would this help anyone at all?
I doubt
well in my eyes this guide just looks like the downgrading we already are able to do, problem is that it will not touch the Hboot at all... and that's where the main problem is because of the new Nandlock.
The only way is an xtc clip..... I can say it works very good and easy. If someone is interested in an in the Netherlands...
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA Premium App
Yes I know all about the clip. I'm just looking into how they rooted the Thunderbolt as it has similar lockdown's on it to the Wildfire.
we all know about the xtc clip, why people keep on spamming about it? theres already a thread all about xtc clip unlocking the NAND!
I am just giving another possibility...........and i can not know what other people know

Yeah sure I'll try it out later. And yes the misc.img is specific to the device, as I said before these steps looks a lot like the downgrading process we already have achieved, sadly as I said it doesn't affect the Hboot.

If you try it out make sure to tell us where you end up! Perhaps we can still downgrade the hboot.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire
We spoked about something similar here. Unfortunately we didn't manage to downgrade.
The method used to root Thunderbolt is similar to the method used to downgrade Desire Z. I think if someone with more knowledge will help we might be able to adapt this methods to wildfire.
Already started looking into a lot of methods which could be possible... looking at exploits for the fs security atm
By "fs" do you mean filesystem? And this method *should* be adaptable I think although don't hold me to that.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire
Yes by fs I mean filesystem. But also known as nand lock
I don't know how many DEVs are in the salsa forum, i don't lurk around myself but i did notice that the SALSA still doesn't have a software S-OFF solution.
Maybe you should start something like
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1374926
And get the moderators involved?
i can create a batch file to create your gold cards for the salsa but no longer have the salsa sorry
honestly we need help to root and s off salsa without the clip .....
Hey Salsa owners! I'm from the Wildfire S forum. If there are any devs working on a software S-OFF like us, we would like to co-operate with you guys. Seeing that the Salsa has almost the same specs as the Wildfire S, why not work together to get it done faster? Also, we need someone with embedding skills. Hope we get a positive reply from you guys!
im still currently running the Salsa on the chinese rom i got, so far ive expanded it a little furhter, allowing a ton load more apps and refinded the links2sd alittle so its running nicely.
as davies put we both can get you the batch files to copy etc, and i can get you any other files anyone so requires to do any work...heck id even test lmao.
one thing we really need is the recovery menu to fully function properly, maybe get support from the makers etc.
im still currently roaming the net for a dev or someone to create a rom like other htc users have.
as for the clip, yes its an arse....but me and davies are willing to help anyone in the uk, i wont personally post mine out, but am willling to help other users out.

This should mean all should be able to to root etc cause pretty sure the bootloader been unlocked then it is a big step for the users without a htc clip
i cannot update the hboot section. so the xtc clip will have to do for users that cant access the sections mentioned

old !!
people here are finfing out ways to unlock bootloader without hboot update...**** HTC hasnt released an update yet...HTC= morons !!
I really wish HTC had given the kind of support that Sony and Samsung are providing. Samsung is giving really great hardware and Sony is giving great software support. because of this low memory issue, Salsa has become a secondary phone to me. Using Xperia arc and wondering why I didn't buy it earlier. Unlocking the bootloader from Sony's dev site was a cakewalk. I am still holding out with Salsa and hope one day we can get rid off this S-Off issue. Clearly, there are no hopes of getting ICS on Salsa with this much internal memory even though cheaper Xperia Minis with 1 Ghz processor will be getting a timely update! :-(
Salsa is a complete rip off esp for those majority users who have no clue about rooting.
HTC wake up guys!!!
Hi Guys,
Sorry if i am bugging with the same old query of a salsa update of ICS or any update above 2.3.5!
Has anyone updated salsa above its official release via rooting to ICS or anything else? Is it stable or any faults or is it bricked?
If its is a positive answer, can you guide me appropriately? I am bored of the old version and seeing all the similar configuration sets getting an ICS, i am depressed. Please drop in your comments.

lol. OK ill explain it fully for you below
1-HTC Dropped updates for this model 1 yr after production
2-HTC Stopped Production of this phone a few months ago
3-HTC will never release anything for the Salsa officially above 2.3.3
4-Any Rom that's Based on Official Salsa will be 2.3.3
5-Any rom that's 2.3.5 is a Port from another device, normally the Wildfire S.
6-Any rom that's 2.3.5 based either 2.1 sense or 3.5 sense will have faults and isn't fully matched to the Salsa so don't complain when something is missing or goes wrong.
7-The Salsa HTC kernel is believed to be OC'd already, so modification will be difficult but is being worked on.
Please think yourself lucky. There's 2 Working devs for this Phone...Me and razor...and I'm working my backside off trying to create things for you guys...My main purpose is to get a working CM7 and that's my mission.
If you want ICS you will have to wait a long time.....first comes a kernel...then comes cm7, after that..heavy kernel mods to allow cm9/cm10 (ICS).
Other than that my friend....change handsets if you want ICS
But honestly...there's nothing you can do...how you think the rest of us feel...I'm bored...very bored of this phone..but will persist till CM7 is on here....
Thanks for the reply.
I consider this one what you said about salsa optimistically.. I consider it LIMITED EDITION
However i understand its config part and am worried, anyways i am wishing you guys all my luck to develop a CM& for salsa..
Wishing your mission to be a success at the earliest

I'm new here and this is my first android phone, so I'm sorry if I'm asking something already said, but what stop us from port CM7? I mean, the bootloader can be unlocked, we have the kernel's source and it's the same android's version. I use Linux since 2007 and I'm a CS student but I have not found many resource and I'm not a genius lol. If I could help somehow I would be very happy, I bought the device two weeks ago (bad choice I now lol, I didn't know it was already old) so it's completely stock if you need to look up some config files lol.

this is why we have bootable cm7's but neither work due to the kernel not working correctly. ie touchscreen modules have to be corrected before the rom can be made to work. we are working on cm10 though in the development section, its gonna take time...

thought you have to give up, htc got much new phones to maintain, and they haven't finish keeping one x more stable yet
the only thing htc does right is release the unlock bootloader,
but i got to say this phone still sucks after unlock, root and everything make this phone better i did
