[Q] Help. Just need an answer regarding EVO rooted 2.2

I just rooted my OTA 2.2 EVO and now have a stock 2.2 root with hboot -0.76.2000
Im not too sure if I NAND unlocked but the guide i used didnt mention it, to run Cyanogen 6 i had to get 0.76 hbott like i did. Do I still need to NAND unlock to run the ROM? If so, how do I do such an act?

[Q] CDMA HTC Desire root issues

Ok so i'm new to this forum and new to android (former iPhone user). and i've read these forums up and down and i can't find an answer to my question. Ok so I recently purchased the US version of the HTC Desire (BravoC) (CDMA) and i used the most recent release of unrEVOked 3.21 to root my phone. and when it flashes i get
an error (status 42). i figured it was just something that i shouldn't pay attention to since when i rebooted the phone i have the superuser permissions app
but then when i try to flash a custom rom it says that they are all bad
I suppose i should mention that i have hboot 0.98
my question is this: how do i successfully root this hboot? and how do i install Froyo?

[Q] Validation error: Backup CID missing

Hello everyone,
I recently got this HTC desire shipped from Hong Kong. It contains certain preloaded apps in chinese that I am unable to get rid of. I tried rooting it with unrevoked 3.32 however I get the error Validation error: Backup CID missing... Are there going to be any future releases of unrevoked that would fix this problem or am I never going to be able to root the phone in order to remove this crap!!

i got mine on ebay and it is T-Mobile branded, i tried to root it several times with Unrevoked 3.32. i got the same error: validation error....... don't know how to do
@rishu88: after few hours of searching and trying methods founds on xda dev and others site, i found that we need a goldcard before rooting. i created my own goldcard then rooted with unrevoked 3.32. just one thing, before using your SDcard do a full format on windows with fat32 (not a rapid format) it'll take a while but it's better look at here for how to creat a goldcard: UnlockR
hope i'm helping you mate

no need of a zip file to get root access, you just have to creat your gold card, insert it in your desire, download Unrevoked and follow this tuto, and all is done

Doesn't work

hello Gabis and welcome to XDA-DEV forum my htc desire also was orange branded and with SLCD sceen not Amoled but i followed the steps from that site and i rooted it using unrevoked; just one thing, not all memorycards can be gold cards try a kingstone 2Gb, almost everyone has confirmed that it works! personally i used a sandisk 2Gb and the 2nd try, it works. when the goldcard is ready and operational, unrevoked can root your Desire without any problem. we'll stay in touch, okay? peace.

Guys, I had the same problem, HTC Desire, 2.2, branded Orange, but found this guide and it worked like magic. No goldcard needed or anything.

I used the first method described. Good luck

[Q] Upgrade O2 branded DHD via OTA

Hello,
I hope to not open a double Post, but I do not found anything similar
I like to upgrade my DHD (HTC Desire HD) with Android 2.2 (Build 1.38.207.1) to Gingerbread.
I have rooted my device with "visionary" and I also get S-Off with "Easy Radio tool v2.2", I checked my CID after this and the CID is HTC__102 for German, after this I made for disaster recovery a backup with "Titanium" and also with the "ROM Manger". Then I tried to get Gingerbread via OTA, but I get only the message no updates available! Can someone help me? I like to update via OTA to not lose my phone data.
Thanks in advance!
Ricardo

??? can anyone help me ???

need help rooting my evo 4g ....

I know it's an old phone but I wanna root it. it's got gingerbread 2.3.5, hboot 2.18. I've tried the htc dev method, I'm having trouble b/c my device manager isn't saying htc bootloader under android devices, it just says "my htc", unfortunately b/c of the firmware I can't use unrevoked, so I've been trying this method. I've tried downloading the htc drivers, yet I still can't get the token info from the cmd prompt. Is there an easier way to do this, or at least a fix for my problem?
