Hi all, I just found a website "unrevoked.com" provides an easy way to root few phones but it doesn't support legend, while I thought HTC Aria has a quite similar hardware to legend, so just wondering if there are anyone already tried it?
thanks!
be my guest , why dont you try it out
It doesn't work.
They don't have an htc legend to use for testing so they can't do it.
They did however say if they can ge their hands on one, as a loaner or from a store that they will do their best to develop a root for the legend.
Until then we have to keep waiting

I live in Korea and got the HTC Raider a couple weeks ago. It is supposedly being released as the HTC Holiday in the US.
I am DYING to root this phone!!! Anyone have any idea how to do it? I would really appreciate any help!
Thanks a lot in advance!
hey, buddy. kinda like only in your country has both the raider and 9100, so how do you think about the two? and how do you like the raider？
Is the Korean version of the Raider unlocked? I live in Hong Kong - been trying to find a parallel import version but it seems impossible....
just got the rogers version of the raider... sad there's no root for it yet
Htc vivid aka raider/holiday has almost same specs but comes in black or white with a 1.2 ghz processor and its coming to the us november 6. Whats everyones reviews? Good, bad or go with the galaxy s 2?
I for the Bell version of HTC raider , it is blazing fast...I was able to clock 8.15mbps in lte mode. I was move on between LTE/HSPA+/HSPA/Wf-fi flawlessly.
its a great device
Not sure how to get the forum going for this device
Got My Bell HTC Raider yesterday
I had the s2 i9100 previously and love the HTC raider I clocked 10 mbs down in Calgary, don't even have LTE here yet that's just 4G+.

So what made u cross over to the htc raider? Im coming from my first android phone in the htc inspire 4g which im enjoying but i am ready for an upgrade and im stuck between the galaxy s2 skyrocket and the htc vivid from AT&T.
Went for the Raider/vivid due to dual channel hspa +
Sent from my HTC-X710a using XDA App
Dual channel hspa+ , notification light, LTE, since its a HTC phone once its rooted you can get beats audio on it.
Thought about waiting for the nexus but don't know if its dual channel hspa + yet and like having 16gb built in and the option for additional storage (have a 32gb micro SD)
Sent from my HTC-X710a using XDA App
Koreans already rooted the Raider/Vivid
a guy in the korean htc forum made a permanent rooting tool for it
which means that my raider is rooted
but I am not sure whether itz going to work for at&t version

Im not super android literate, i know theres different types of root from what ive read. i was able to temp root it using zergs one root method. It would revert back to non rooted status after restart. i unlocked my bootloader and applied this method afterwards and the phone is still rooted. i am able to use setcpu etc but most importantly titanium backup which i love. hopefully this helps some

Any issues with USB Connectivity using this method? Any issues with Micro SD Card? I know when I used this on my Atrix 2 which I returned for this device it started having issues with Not Mounting to the PC etc.
Not sure what you would like a picture of, i took a screenshot of my titanium home screen if that helps, it shows i have root access also took a screenshot in cpu master pro which requires root

I can't believe this, I left for a bit, went back to my xperia play.
put together a quick theme for my xperia play (it's so much easier to theme, it's already blue).
Then came back with my raider/vivid ready to work (xperia play is my daily now) and looks like pirategohst left, wildchild left. I'm so sad.
I was so ready to move from VJraiders rom to Pirategohost rom. but if development is dead why bother.
One thing i can say, this phone seems to not get much work on it like other devices, I have an xperia x1 (i know it's old), xperia x10, xperia play, htc evo 3d and all those devices are worked on daily. I know the raider is the newest device but....
Well enough with that, time to put to rest my raider and play with my evo 3d and play. all i need now is sony to release the xperia s and I'll be good.
Hey wildchild and pirateghost sad to see you leave and hope all is well, take care.
BYE BYE raider.
PM me if you want to make me an offer for my raider, it's from rogers.
Sad is right... I was about to buy a Raider/Vivid... But it looks as though the entire Dev community has decided to pull support... No sources, no links, no ROMS aside from Cyanogen and shipped?!?!
Sad scary day, I'll look around for XDA alternatives, but this makes me fairly upset, I've got a couple other androids at home, and there's a fair share of fighting on dev, but in the end it's about making a GOOD ROM, for yourself, and sharing it with a community... I can't fathom the flame wars that started in this forum.
Oh well, I'll wait for the HTC One series LOL
This was already a small dev community, and then the fact that a bunch of people wouldn't listen and bother taking the effort to try and read and really understand what they were doing meant they screwed up a very expensive device.
Oh well, everyone is already off to the One series.

If i change the xml's in framework res it makes sense crash after the first boot. this is what caused me to set my xperia play back up, I need a daily phone.
then i was going to try and fix what was causing the issue. i needed to be able to flash and reflash each time i mod the apk's.
Funny thing is, my raider is the fastest phone i have right now and the more i use my xperia play i really miss the speed of a dual core cpu.

Do you get the apk from the dist folder after building it on apktools? Or are you replacing the res folder on the original apk file?

I use the apk in your rom, then run it in apktools, then recompile with no errors.
I did not have an issue with version 2 of you rom.
But just to be clear, the apk's i theme are all from your rom, thats why they wouldn't work in any other rom.
They're all around if you know where to look. WC is on his own site, and I saw Pghost post on that site about obtaining and possibly porting the Endeavor RUU. Cm9 development is paused until we get kernel sources from HTC, so not all is lost. It just requires patience.

I really don’t care what happens to the Vivid anymore since the HTC One X and the Galaxy SIII should be out in a month or two. I’m sure those two beasts will have a ton of developer support. I guess next time I’ll make sure to get a more popular phone even though I think the Vivid is one of the best LTE phones that AT&T has.

I HAVE THE AMAZE, HTC BLOWS..... THEY ARE SUCH EVIL PR!CKS!
I would suggest going with Samsung..... there is way more development for samsung than there is for HTC..... I doubt that the new HTC devices will have much development either.... Having a great phone with no development .... is like not having a great phone at all....

UI of Galaxy S3 sucks like anything... ( saying it on my personal experience of handling sgs2 ) Other wise it's perfect in each and every prospect ...well nearly perfect just bit confused what to get and what not to...not interested in sony's xperia s (12mp camera phone) got Sony DSC-HX200V to capture pics...

Every HTC device overheats, every single one, just more noticeable as you get into dual-core and quadcore processors, something HTC will never fix. That's the reason I want to buy a SGS2 ( and super amoled+ screen), their UI is AWFUL but yet again, there are roms e.g. don2012 is working on porting sense 4.0 to SGS2.

You wouldn't have said that about the Sensation. The problem with that device is 768Mb of RAM isn't enough. I have the Amaze as well, and while development is lacking on it, it's NOT because the device sucks. It's because most devs went for the Sensation and then skipped over the Amaze....AND UNTIL RECENTLY, NO S-OFF....
Meh.... From my Amaze 4G

Thanks for this. Was hoping for a non-root tethering option that actually worked. I've rooted my past 3 phones, but trying to live without it... as long as I can handle it
Actually, I don't see any need to root and rom with Sense 5, I personally like it and it's stable for me. I'm only missing some seldomly used root apps. Tethering is the only reason I have right now to actually break and root. Just trying to not do that this time around.

have you played around with any of the kernels or roms? im getting my sprint one this week and i was just wondering if there were any you recommend. as far as roms go ive been looking at viperRom or Tranquility. i figured i should start with sense-based and see how like it. for kernels im thinking of going with wolfpack. elementalx looks good but it says its not compatible with the sprint version. any thoughts?
