Hi all. So I've just unlocked the bootloader on my Cricket HTC Desire C. But when I try to install Superboot, it just reboots and stays stuck on the HTC logo with a message. "This build is for development purposes only". Can anyone help me?

r1 superboot splash screen
1. Was the phone operating and in use after you rooted it with r1_Superboot?
2. Have you installed Superboot and installed a ROM without rebooting the system or wiping caches/data etc?
3. Have you installed a Custom Recovery?
4. Have you ensured you have read through guides before flashing? I ask this with only -*1*- posting it does not bode well!
A quick google search and 3 pages in you find -> https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=26&cad=rja&ved=0CEsQFjAFOBQ&url=http%3A%2F%2Fforum.xda-developers.com%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D2305429%26page%3D2&ei=KvyuUr_dJ4OAhAftnIDABw&usg=AFQjCNGgxlojZOIPXesuQTzy0TOM7dCwBw&bvm=bv.57967247,d.bGQ Go back to Thread Start and post #6 leads you to a good guide -> {{READ the whole thread as there may be more up to date info than my quick search }} http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1947613
If after trying to access HBOOT, flash a recovery, flash a ROM does not work you will have to see about flashing a DIAG image {extreme case}
The key is Cricket. try this thread, very hard to find... http://www.cricketusers.com/cricket-htc-desire-c/85095-root-new-post.html
Anything here in XDA is not for the Cricket, don't try.
I have not done anything except unlocking the bootloader.

I need some help!
My Nexus One hangs in the /!\ screen after my first attempt to install the CM7 RC1.
I flashed it using ROM Manager en followed the steps on the CM Wiki:
Nexus One: Full update Guide (Cant post a link)
What can I do to make my Nexus One work again?
DO *NOT* POST QUESTIONS IN THIS FORUM - only tips/info/etc.
Sorry, I couldn't post in the development section because I'm not allowed to.
I will post it again in the Q&A.
That's the error page.
Put the ROM and Gapps on your SD card, boot into recovery and flash from there.
Do I need to unlock my bootloader too?
I'm reading different things about that.

Did you flash a custom recovery?
Yes I did!
I've been searching around and asked a friend for help!
I'm running CM7 now!
Thanks for your help!!

The /!\ screen is the stock recovery, so no, you didn't flash a custom recovery; or at least it didn't stick...

Read the Wiki, read the guide for installing custom ROMs, execute.
Glad you got it fixed bro!

1. By rooting my HTC Desire C and using it with the stock room (not with the nameless rom) could i be able to Update if htc sends a new software update like jelly bean.
2. Is there any method how to unroot if i have warranty purposes ?
Thx a lot.

You can still receive updates while your rooted but you may have to reroot afterwards and I don't think there will be a jellybean update for this phone probably just be a few software updates.
Also if you used the superboot r1 method of rooting you can easily do a full unroot from the options in supersu if you need to send your phone off for any reason. I did this recently when I sent mine off for repair.

This roots are only permanent roots. You can install updates, but than when I tryed my root was deleted and I needed to root it again and now I'm using nameless rom. So you should try just to download software updates and install them and then reboot your phone and check if you got root with Rootchecker and SuperSU.
Well now im confused a bit, i think its imposible to root desire c if bootloader is locked ... :/
Mby.im sounding dumb but im noob
Sent from my HTC Desire C using xda app-developers app
Yes you need unlocked bootloader to root but what I ment was you can relock it if you need to send your phone off

Hard Touch and Lagginess
Hey .. Desire C's touch is a bit harder than Explorer's .. Has anyone noticed that ... ??
And I have observed lagg in playing games and a long delay in opening application specially message app, people app and when I press the back button , it takes 3 seconds to go to the previous screen .. Please can anyone help me out ,,, ?
The lag is probably due to sense 4 as it is pretty ram intensive .
But you can try ram managing scripts like supercharger v6. or try swapping ( install the overclocked kernel before you swap )
Over-clocked Kernel
Hey, I just had a question regarding the over-clocked kernel for the desire c. I'm already flashing the latest and last nameless rom and was thinking about trying out the explosion, but I was just wondering if anyone had any insight regrading the over clocking-- I read on the nameless thread that there were some issues with it?

Been waiting for a root for my phone for a while now. Any news? I've got a HTC Desire C (golfc) my carrier is Cricket.
You can root your phone the same as any other user. However, you cannot flash the same roms or you could brick your phone.

I'm unable to root my phone with the methods I've tried. It sits at a screen that has the HTC Logo and says, "This build is for dev purposes only..."
I've been told in another thread that there is no root for the golfc.
Make a clockworkmod backup and send me your boot, I can modify it to have root access.
Dont flash superboot it will work but, break your wifi.
Other thing if you flashed superboot you can flash my oc kernels I think it's compatible with cdma too, just copy /system/lib/modules/ files from my rom to enable wifi, push to your phone same directory.

Bashing away at my HTC Desire C
I've tried every method I could find to root and all I get is the htc logo with the red wording underneath saying "This build is for development purposes only...". I've rooted a few phones before and have never ran into any issues and I did unlock the phone using htcdev. Any ideas on why this is happening?
Same Problem
I am having the same problem and I have rooted every phone I have owned. this is the first one I am having issues with.

If you have the htc's logo with the red phrase "this build is only...." means that you have unlocked the bootloader (or rooted, I don't remember).
Do you have the superuser in your app drawer? If you haven't try to install it from playstore.
After you've checked this try with a root checker to check if you're really rooted or not.

QFT
Must be your first HTC root, all phones by them have the red developer text on the boot screen. Also, this red text confirms that you successfully unlocked your boot loader. What root method did you use?

Does not installing the updates....error coming..when i install the updates and android error logo comes..
My htc desire c is rooted..processor 600mhz...what i can do please help experts...
You need to go back to stock unrooted to update. There are some instructions on how to do it in forums. It all comes down to flashing stock recovery, relocking bootloader and running ruu.
