[Q] Cant root my phone - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hi there everyone, ive been trying all night to root my Desire, with some help from one of my friends, ive got all the utilities needed and such, but when ever i boot into the bootmenu where i have to select HBOOT_USB, its simply not there.
Info:
Bravo PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-031d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNTH0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27
i hope these numbers can help u guys in helping me, cause i cant figure out what im doing wrong, my usb drivers must be right because unrevoked can see it, and ive turned usb-debugging on as well.
I finally got convinced to root my phone and now i cant figure it out, great
Just noticed i might have put this topic in the wrong category sorry about that

Me too . I can't root my phone either

[Q]

I've searched teh forum but could not find a conclusive answer or a a solution that works.
Fact is that I come from the Netherlands and have an HTC Desire. It comes with some apps I rather do without AND I like to be in controle over a phone I bought. The problem is that I want it to be rooted but I can't seem to find anything that works. I tried 1 solution I found here but I almoste bricked my Desire lol ( NOT!!!! scared the hell outta me) So I would like to know if there is a way to safely root my Desire? Or even let it be done by someone who knows what he is doing
I got Froyo (If I am correct) underneath here I have a list of what my bootloader looks like.

If I'm not mistaken, unrevoked roots the Desire. It's quick & painless, at least for the Evo, and doesn't remove any of your data. You may need to flash unrevoked forever in recovery if you're not s-off after rooting. I know that Unrevoked 3 for the Evo has forever included, it's most likely the same for your phone.

(btw this part went smooth without any hickups)
Then started unrEVOked3 and it begins good bat after few seconds.....
unrEVOked3 hangs while it says:
Waiting for bootloader; make sure driver is installed!
It hangs for about an hour now. On pc unrEVOked3 says the above and on my phone I see the booloader in the position below
HBOOT USB PLUG
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
CLEAR STORRAGE
SIMLOCK
What went wrong? I did it without HTC sync and with. The USB drivers are not uninstalled so it shoud be able to find it I guess.
I've read somewhere it could depend on what bootloader I have. I also read ( and stupid me forgot to bookmark it.....) that HTC is going to root Android from factory on. But untill then I am stuck with this one.....
any help plz...

YESSSSSS my HTC Desire is rooted. Or at least I have the Superuser icon in my apps section. In short:
I used the RUU file as desrcibed above. Then I made a goldcard and used Unrevoked 3.21 to flash it. It worked like a charm although I had my doubts
so no see what I can do with it... lol At least I am in controle of (most of) my phone...
grtz and tnx 4 any reply

The only problem I am now facing is that I want to be able to remove some system apps. Therefore I need to get S-OFF. After reading here some threads I am a little worried about trying this because bricking my Desire isn't one of my goals...

Problem solved with the outcome of unlock boatloader (no thanks to HTC btw but they helped)

Root HTC Chacha S-ON

Using the Android platform for the first time and migrated from Blackberry ... all is wonderful on the phone just struggling with the internal memory. When I tried moving apps it said no .... got to know from a friend root your phone but the happiness didn't last long as i landed with S-ON .....
So can anyone help with how to root this phone and enhance by first Android experience ....
I don't really want to be a bastard about this but, Themes&Apps? Really?! You're looking for root and S-OFF under Themes&Apps? You didn't even check General/Development? You might be new to Android but I'm pretty sure you've had some experience with forums and communities before

[Q] Here are my specs. Can I root. Please Help

Hey, Im new to this forum. It would be great if someone could give me a solid answer because im just confusing myself more by reading all these posts about rooting.
I have a Droind Inc. Version 2.3.4 and when I hboot I have an S-ON. The phone was not previously rooted. I have uninstalled HTC sync on the comp. I have tried the unrevoked program, and i get the error message "Error: failed to get root. Is your firmware too new? "
I just want someone with experience to give me a truthful answer. Can i root my phone, or am i stuck untill unrevoked comes out with a fix.
This is the info on the hboot menue

If i can not root my phone in the current state then My final question is can root if do a factory reset
Thanks so much for the help guys. Reading through all these websites was giving me a lot of false info, so im excited to get some reliable sources
I would google "Super one click root for Incredible 2" if I was you. That's how I did my D3. When I used Super one click root it was compatible with a lot of different Droids.

[Q]Sensation 4g TMO..root/boot issues

To All, Hey members. Im new to the community but have been a avid follow of this site for quite some time now. I am pretty tech savy and feel like I can fix this problem. The problem being this: I have a sensation 4g from tmobile that was given to me cause someone attempted to root it and couldnt get it done. So as of right now, I can get to the bootloader screen and it has recovery 4xt as well. I have yet to root a device but have been researching it quite thoroughly on here and with the phone being in the state its in, i felt rather opposed to ask instead of taking initiative and risking bricking the device.
As listed on bootloader screen:

On the SDcard i was able to see the two roms and the other file listed below.
I attempted to install Elegancia one and went through the process fine and upon reboot it stops, same with the other rom.
Elegancia_ICS_TMOUS_V3.0.0
Android_Revolution_HD-Sensation_6.6.7
su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed
So where can I can from here?? I feel like theres something i can do to pick up where the previous person left off, or maybe start over possibly. I have my laptop and am eager to follow instructions to accomplish this task at hand. Im open to all feedback and would appreciate the help to further my knowledge of Android devices and rooting in a whole To add, I have not installed anything to my laptop at this time.

[Q] soft brick incredibly htc incredible 2 verizon cant run adb in promt to get s-off

ood night, i´m really happy to join this big comunity;
My question is this... severals weeks ago, i got an incredible 2 in verizon (in from Mexico City), i tried to unlock to use it with the mexican carriers, but I thought i would be a good idea to root it and get a nice rom.
I use the fastboot way, but, i forgot to make a backup to the original ruu, so i can not be able to follow as the procedure said.
I've been stuck for a several weeks trying to solve this, reading this and another android (mostly htc foums).
the i got this link from android forums (i´m a new user so i cant post links i can share by inbox ) but my i understand that the adb only can be run in the "normal" mode, i mean without the phone bricked, in this point i got my mobile with this..

i have the recovery clockwork 5.0.2.0 vivow
i know that i cant do too much with the S-ON, neither cant boot any rom, and i tried with fastboot, but the adb command "adb devices" doesnt recognize the phone, the fastboot command is actually working , so i cant do anything though.
i´m not an expert, i spent all these days on google before asking directly in any forum, but i ran out of ideas (and forum theads), i´m just beging a couple of hints.
Thanks for your time and redards from México.

I tryed to flash a custom rom on my droid incredible 2 but i wasn't aware that i needed to unlock s-on to S-off mode, note my phone won't boot. I can run recovery and fastboot. But my phone won't boot, so i can't access adb to install revolutionary to change to s-off. Need help here to. Is there any way to get S-off without adb access?
