[Q] Newbie to rooting Incredible S in linux

Hi all. My Incredible S is bought and use in Saudi Arabia. Few weeks ago i did OTA upgrade with the below result:
Android version 2.3.5
Htc sense version 3
Software number 3.09.145.2
I am thinking to try out rooting this phone. Would like to do this in Linux as I dont have a windows computer. My laptop runs ubuntu and mint LXDE, they are not the latest releases but i think it does not matter. I'm looking for a complete guide how to root in linux. I found a thread below but the phones are not IS. I am not sure if they are applicable.

First since you now have HBOOT 2.00.0000 your only option currently is to begin by unlocking the bootloader using the procedure at HTCDEV.com.
Next you would flash a custom recovery so that you can install the latest SU-3.0.x.zip.
I suggest you do some more research and reading about these 3 steps before attempting it.

Since you are new, I would suggest you read and study the sticky threads in the General section and the Development section.

How about goldcard? He can downgrade to hboot 1.16 then and unlock through revo.

Goldcard will only let you use an RUU from a different carrier. To downgrade you need to change the main version which can only be achieved with root access.

If you look at htcdev.com at the first step it says "If you do not find your ROM version in the table below, and your ROM version is newer, then your device does not require the RUU. Please bypass these steps and continue to the next page." Actually is no RUU for Desire C. So I don't know if you downloaded a RUU and installed it, but that should be the problem if you did, you just need to click on that green words "continue to the next page". My phone was rooted yesterday and it works great and I needed to unlock the bootloader too. And I made it too.

Thank you very much for your answer.

The RUU needs locked bootloader in order to work.
Try relocking it.

That ruu might not be compatible. and if you want to install a rom first you need to root. the unlock isn't enough.
