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
Thats good news!!!!!

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

Rather than looting half of London, I spent my time giving something back to the Android Community.
I've compiled this guide on how to root the HTC Legend vodafone. It's pretty simple in my opinion and I've tried to make it as easy to use as possible. I have included a lot of images and started right from the beginning.
List of Guides:
How to root the HTC Legend [H-BOOT 1.00]
How to un-root the HTC Legend
Advice on choosing ROM's
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I think I've added in all the credits, but if I haven't then please tell me. I'm also making more guides for noob Android users.
Thanks for using the guide, and if you have any suggestions, please leave a comment.
N.B. Guides have since been taken down due to newer methods of one-click rooting.

I just rooted a day before you posted and believe me this are the steps I followed...and woo..its rooted
I hope this post is made a stickied
Very nice, and lots of pics! It should help a lot of people out.
Thank you. When I tried to root my HTC Legend, I couldn't find a proper guide, so I thought I'd make one to help other people out.
Hi Thanks i just swap my iphone with htc legend from my gf and planning to root the phone. this would be my only guide, hopefully no issue will happen and i will report back. the guide looks good and simple but the only thing i find is, TOO many files needed. maybe i can combine all of them and put in 1 place to help other newbies !
but i still shock to see number of files i need to root an android ! and the files are sooo big aswell ! different from iphone, you just need a website or 1 software to jailbreak it hehehehehe - relax im an android fan boy now !
Every Android device has its own rooting method. The one of the Legend is really long; but don't worry. It's not that hard as it seems. Also this guide is really good!
i actually has hboot 1.0.1 and reading http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894465 is very confusing. can someone point me to easier guide just what mafuzzer done with hboot 1.00 ? thanks alot.

Error 140 means that you need to re-create the GoldCard. Your phone must also be connected as, "Charge Only". You could also try plugging your phone in another USB port. Also check that you have AndroidSDK installed.
Added another guide with some advice on choosing ROM's. I'm also working on a simple un-root guide.
How do I check hboot version - my gf has a legend

Hi! Thank you for posting such an amazing guide! But one problem that I am experiencing though, is that why are the images unable to be viewed?

i picked up a used first generation(7" SCH-I800) VZW Galaxy Tab on Craigslist a couple weeks ago and have had a series of problems while trying to root it or even connect it to my computer.
im looking for Verizon specific instructions if anyone can make that happen.
i have a Windows 7 64bit PC and every time i try to install the drivers it fails. i do NOT have the Kies option in the USB connect menu in settings, only Media Play and Mass Storage. i downloaded Kies from Samsung website and installed it, and again the driver failed to install properly.
i know theres a bunch of people out there with rooted/rom'd Verizon branded Tabs. i'd love to figure out how you guys are doing it.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
nothing? nobody here has a rooted Verizon Tab?
I've got the same tab. Been trying to root it for weeks. Z4 wont work, superoneclick hangs and the tab turns off but only goes into standby and doesnt really get rooted. I would deff make a donation to anyone who can help, I cant wait to get rid of all the verizon bloatware on this thing!

Im going to be real with y'all this to me is the most weird root i have ever had to do. I have rooted every android device i have owned with no problem but this just doesn't make sense to me. How do I root this blasted thing? No one can give me a straight answer some say zroot that doesn't work some say superoneclick that doesn't work. Is it the fact that its the sch 1800 from verizon? I don't understand why this device is so difficult to root can some one point me to a video or a direct like so i can read up on it cause its not making sense to me.
Thanks

best directions i have seen yet but i still couldn't get this to work. getting stuck on step 11 one of the partitions cant be located every time i do it its a different one. I think I may just give up on this I don't understand why its this difficult but i guess these is the breaks
I won't go into all the details but I've been chasing dead download links, downloaded stock ROM's that wont work, ect.
I can't receive OTA updates and stuck on Foyo.
Does anyone have a good link for stock version 7 (Gingerbread)?
Thats all I need. The rest I have figured out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ready to give up and I would hate to do that.
Thank you,
Tom
There's a link for stock gingerbread under the dev section , its a couple posts down on page one

Hey,you can flash kernel to have root via Odin for your PC. It is easy.
Then, I heard about Unlock Root app for PC which does rooting by two - three clicks via USB-debugging for 2.2-4.0.3 . (I didn't use it, I have pre rooted 4.0.4 )
Then you can just flash a rom with root,cwm,ext4-filesystem.
That is the way to taste Android 4.0.4 that is really awesome
Sorry, I can't paste links right now but I wish I helped you
A good start for you would be to flash the overcome ROM.
Here is a copy of the Installation Guide (with images)
Here is a link to the Overcome website
Simply follow the instructions and you'll be fine with a brilliant new rooted ROM.
If you want to go to ICS then I can recommend Cyanogenmod 9 - there are several ICS ROMs based on CM9 out there so I'll leave it to you to search them out; however my advice is start with Overcome to get a feel for the PC tools and CWM recovery.
Good luck

thanXx guys will report back bcuz i justt got to my laptop....i hope this works
