Guides Alpharevx , Rooting and Much Moree !!

1st of all alpharevx works for both Froyo & GB confirmed and tested by a official alpharevx team member !!
* Steps :
1. Settings->Power->Uncheck Fastboot
2. Run latest version of HTC Sync on your PC and connect phone in HTC Sync mode and sync all your files.Remove HTC Sync and not the drivers ..
3. Reboot phone.
4. Settings->Applications->Development->Check USB Debugging
5. Run AlphaRevX and connect phone to PC in Charge Only mode
6. AlphaRevX should recognise your phone and show your Device Serial number, typically it should be something like HTXXETDXXXXX
7. Now type this out in the AlphaRevX page, the Key Generator appears only after you click the 'Download for Windows' link
8. Type out the key in the AlphaRevX software, keeping in mind the upper and lower case letters and press enter
9. AlphaRevX should start doing its thing and I got S-OFF at my first attempt in under 90 seconds
10. If it takes longer, just wait for the 15 minutes mark, if nothing, then reboot phone and retry. Some members got S-OFF after multiple tries
*After a successfull S-OFF

power on ur phone pressing volume down + power button ..
run the neccessary commands on windows cmd prompt , when it shows wait for device
then click on fastboot on the phone's screen . here click is enabled by pressing the power button !!
* Make sure you have disabled your antivirus and firewall !!
On windows7 if UAC is enable make sure you right click and run it as administrator
Special thanks to JohnAnderton on this info :
If AlphaRevX isn't working for you (kept "hanging" at Step 2 i.e. attempting to get root). This was because AlphaRevX doesn't work with certain carrier variants are GingerBreak patched
It didn't work for me on the India/Asia version.
To check your software version, go to settings > about > software version > build version. If it says 2.12.720.5, I'm sorry but you'll have to do the Optus/Virgin AU ROM installation.
Here are the steps to do that:
1) Download the Optus ROM (261 MB)
2) create a gold card
3) run the ROM installer and wait for it to extract, go to your tmp folder (start > run > %tmp% > sort by date > see newest folder > dig in deep and find rom.zip)
4) take rom.zip and put it on your SD with the name PG32IMG.zip
5) Reboot your phone into boot loader (this can be done by switching your phone off, waiting 5 seconds, turning your phone on with the volume down pressed). It will see that you have PG35IMG.zip so it will verify and install it. It will come to the boot loader again and once it's done installing it will load the OS (the regular HTC white page followed by Optus' logo. Once you're in the OS, remove PG32IMG.zip
Special thanks to Cardii :
Permanent Root using Gingerbreak v1.2. Just follow these steps.
1. Download Astro File Manager (Free or Paid)
2. Download Gingerbreak v1.2 from the Gingerbreak thread on XDA (Google it)
3. Place Gingerbreak.apk on your SD Card (no format required)
4. Run Astro File Manager and install Gingerbreak
5. Reboot phone
6. Open Gingerbreak and click Root Device
7. Takes a few mins to root, phone should automatically boot and if you find Superuser installed then you have permanent root. In some cases you might have not have an automatic reboot, in that case you'll get a message along these lines 'Reboot has failed, please reboot manually and check if Superuser has been installed'. If the process is hanging at the 'Rooting Device' for longer than 10 mins, just reboot the phone and try again.
8. You should have root.
if its not rooting by this method try another sd card manually format it and den give it a try .. it should work
for gingerbreak v1.2 refer to this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765

Make your gold card.
extract ANDROID SDK
in the android sdk tools folder ,extract the hack for legend
open crackin.bat (your phone will reboot 5 times)
install VISIONary r13,then temproot "u may need to make twice"
while you are on sdk/tools shift and rt click and chose command prompt here.
then write :
Code:
adb shell
su
once u see the prompt on the phone click yes.
now write:
Code:
/data/local/flash_image misc /data/local/misc1-2.img
open root for legend Unzip them to the C: drive on your computer (so the file path is C:\r4-legend-root\)
Turn off your phone and turn it back on by holding down Back and Power until you see Fastboot come up on the screen. Push the Power button while highlighting Fastboot on the phone and Fastboot should show up in red now on the phone (if it doesn’t push Power again until it does).
Plug the phone in via USB cable to the computer.
Open the folder you extracted to the C drive and double click “step1-windows.bat” and wait for it to finish.
Once you see the menu on the phone come back up, navigate to BOOTLOADER and push power, then navigate to RECOVERY using the volume buttons to navigate and the power button to select and the phone should boot to the ! screen.
Now on the computer double click the “step2-windows.bat” file and wait for it to finish.
Now you should see a custom recovery screen, using the optical trackpad navigate to Wipe and push on the trackpad to select it. Then navigate to Wipe data/factory reset and select that.
Once that is done, push volume down to go back to the main menu and select Flash zip from sdcard and select the rootedupdate.zip file and wait for it to flash. All done, you have root access and can use any root required app! Enjoy!

Wow..this looks clearer than the other one i might try again.
After 4+hours lastweek I gave up following the other thread ...
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App

If only Alpharev got S-OFF for >1.00...

Is the procedure for rooting H-BOOT 1.01 the same as 1.00 then? Is it the same as my guide? (www.chirag.co.uk)

so where's the part that u should install android 2.1 <1.31 RUU ?
you have prepared for downgrade and haven't done the actual downgrade part... are u sure that nothing's been left apart in your guide?

and that is why it is called made easy
no need to install 2.1 RUU

confirm this guide is working!!! so much easier to follow than the other thread!! thanks so much.
but i just dont understand do we need to use our goldcard somewhere in the rooting process ? i mean i did make goldcard but then i dont know if i have to leave it in the phone while doing rooting or not. anyway, now i have cyanogen 7.0.3...

Thanks i got it to work anyway, I didn't have Bootloader driver installed. However, this guide is pretty similar to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1208377
With the screenshots help on that link, makes this guide even easier.
Thanks.

i was about to root a friends legend yesterday but also got stucked in step1-windows.bat, i succesfully downgraded to 1.31 and he has 2.1 instead of froyo now. But as i said, couldn´t get any further. Why is all the guides different, some guides you should open the RUU file in the computer, not in this guide. How do i know when to make that step or not

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
lost 2 full evenings with other guides and finally made it with this guide at the 1st try!!
Mistakes i did in the past (maybe that's why i didn't make it):
- SD Goldcard formatted FAT and not FAt32
- Working ADB.exe is in \platform-tools folder and no longer in \tools folder. So I extracted the 'hack for legend' in \platform-tool but in order to enable ADB.exe to load from any folder I added as Windows PATH folder also the \tool
also
- I run CMD with Admin rights in Windows7
- Had to run Visionary couple of times
- had to run point 12 couple of times

The 4.2.2 isnt android HD 10.0 update does not support Sprint as of yet. They mention it in the thread. Not to mention the fact that it is mentioned when you go through the aroma installer and the fact that International is the only option in the aroma installer.

It's almost impossible to brick your phone unless you have S-OFF which I doubt that you do. Don't panic (yet)!
This thread has just about everything you need to get it fix. You rooted your phone so you probably already have adb and HTC Drivers installed on your computer, if not then get them installed.
You'll need to get a copy of TWRP recovery too and place it in the ./platform-tools/ directory. Also place a copy of a ROM.zip of your choice in the same ./platform-tools/ directory.
Now let's try to reinstall the recovery:
1. If you phone is already powered off. Press & hold volume down + power button for a few seconds until you see a menu on the phone screen. Use volume down button to select Fastboot then press power button to select it. Connect phone to usb cable now.
2. On your computer, browse to ./platform-tools, press the Shift key and then right-click on that folder and select "Open command window here"
3. In the command window, type: fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-m7wls.img then hit Enter
4. Still in the same command window, type: fastboot reboot-bootloader then hit Enter. You'll now see the bootloader menu on the phone. Press power button to select Bootloader, then volume-down key to highlight Recovery and press power button again to boot back into Recovery. Your phone should now be in TWRP recovery and you can proceed to reflash a ROM if you sdcard did not get wiped. If your sdcard is empty, continue from Step 5 to sideload a ROM
5. In TWRP recovery, tap Advanced, tap ADB Sideload, the swipe enable it
6. Back in the command windows, type: adb sideload NameOfROM.zip then hit Enter. Wait a few minutes and reboot the phone when prompted. You should be back in business now.
If you need more help, feel free to PM me.
Cheers

Sprint hasn't released a kernel for 4.2.2 yet, so the newest android revolution won't work on our phones. I highly recommend downloading and using the "Sprint RUU" that's linked in the android development forum, and that will bring everything back to the beginning for you. From there you can re unlock and root, and the flash ViperRom or whatever... and trust me, you're phone isn't bricked.

Like I said, you have to run the RUU. You don't need to be able to put anything on your device, you download RUU to your computer, plug in your phone, and use Hasoons all in one kit to relock your phone, then run the RUU. After that it will be like factory new and you can reunlock and add whatever rom you want. I had an identical problem, this was the only fix for me.

You're probably missing the OS. You're not going to get the original recovery back but you can download a stock image and flash it in recovery to get an OS.

The problem is the lack of an OS to boot and so it just hangs at the HTC screen. Either a) flash another stock or b) assuming it's been less than 30 days, take it back to wherever you bought it and complain it's broke and feign ignorance. You may also try restoring to factory defaults and installing the stock again. Sounds like you may have ****ed your partitions doin whatever it is you was doin.

Awesome sauce.
So far no method has been developed. Contact Sprint and ask to unlock your phone is my only answer.

Many members have already given this process but in some place the needed files are missing and some other place the process is not explained clearly. So to slove this I have made all in one file and given the process as simple as possible by me.
This process have worked very fine for me. Rooted 8 k4 notes without any problem.
Read all and follow. And do it on your own risk. I am not responsible if anything go wrong.
First of all I would like to introduce myself ( I know it's not necessary but to some of them to believe my work )
Myself is Kaushik. I have been using XDA since 2 years but never opened an account and replied in posts. Now after learning a lot I thought I should also start replying. May be I am a junior member here but not truly a junior member.
I have flashed more then 250 mobile of all brands. And thanks to XDA my success rate is 99.7 %
Thanks to XDA to making me local gadget guru. Now here every one believe that if even service center also fail to slove some software problems but at last kaushik will surly pass.
OK now let's see how to root.
(This will void your warranty)
(Phone will factory reset, which means all of the apps and data will be gone, not the internal sd)
(To root Lenovo K4 note you need to first unlock the bootloader. See below to know how to do it )
1. First download the two files from the links I have given.
All files needed to install twrp and root are in one zip file. Link is below.

Usb ADB drivers for k4 note. Link below.
https://mega.nz/#!281yHDoI!iuIynHRqf8ui7IffStBhwrJvHJ4NBn1eExy_MYpr13o
Now to unlock bootloader.
2. Now in your mobile go to 'Settings' / 'About Device' / press 7 times on built number to unlock Developer options.
3. Now go to Developer options and click on 'OEM Unlocking' and press enable.
4. Next enable the USB debugging.
Your bootloader is now unlocked.
Now in PC extract the downloaded files
5. Install lenovo adb drivers ( it is in the link I have provided ) on your pc
6. Go to adb folder and press and hold shiftkey and right click with mouse. Select open command from here.
7. type adb reboot bootloader You need to authorize the pc if not done already. (The phone will boot onto fastboot, you can see small fastboot written on the left corner of the screen once the phone boots)
8. Now open adb folder and open 'unlock_bootloder'. A message will be displayed in mobile to press volume up key to continue. Press volume up key. A message in pc cmd will display as press any key to continue. Now press any key.
9. Now in cmd type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
A message will be displayed as done.
Next part is very important
10. After its done press volume up and down button together with power button. Once you see the lenovo white screen, release the power button, release the volume keys once the screen goes black, wait for few minutes till you boot into the new custom recovery.
To avoid black screen set brightness below 30 in twrp settings. ( Not so important if don't understand how to do it )
11. Now the recovery allow modifications by just swiping and the goto mount and tick system and go back
12. Now go to advance, then file manager, then system, and delete the file named, recovery from boot.p ( if you are facing problem plz see point 14. )
13. After done do back and flash supersu.zip. (it is in the link which I have provided)
Now you phone is rooted and the supersu app will appear in the app drawer.
14. If you are facing problem with file manager flash aroma file manager ( it is in the link ). It will open in twrp. Now go to system and delete recovery from boot.p.
If you do not delete the said file again stock recovery will be replaced. If it happens so again you must repeat the steps from step 1.
Next to install xposed after boot up install xposed.apk (app is in the link)
Next flash xposed zip file. (Zip in the link )
Please don't forget to hit thanks if it helped you.
It will make me post more and help others.
Thanks
Regards
Kaushik.

Is this process safe??

HELP ! Fastboot doesn't recognize my device
s230 update brought a lot of issues thus I downgraded to s218 & now on s219. I am able to get adb to recognize my device but not fastboot. Therefore I am unable to unlock bootloader!
When I type in " adb reboot bootloader" or click on the "unlock_recovery.bat" file provided, I get booted into a dark screen where "fastboot" is written at the bottom left & the command prompt window says < waiting for device> & I am stuck there until I reboot my phone.
