Easy four step process.
1. Post in the right place, like general or Q & A.
2. Learn about your device, like SPL and Radio, Board etc.
3. SEARCH. It's easy to do.
4. Follow the guides or wiki guide to modding your device.
Really, just try searching. All this information has been discussed alot.
http://theunlockr.com/how-tos/android-how-tos/
Same way you root any G1....
I'm having the same problem, and no, don't say read up or do a search, been there done that. Infact, I did root my g1 originally to try out a ROM, then unrooted it and thats when I got an update for the DMD64 build.
Anyone any luck with rooting a DMD64?
u gotta downgrade your firmware to r29 before rooting again
Go to the unlockr.com and search for how to make a goldcard for your micro SD then follow the rooting step then you should be OK
If you need any more help let me know.

As a side note: Have you tried downgrading (as you would with any other G1?)
Hi all I know there is a lot of guides on here for rooting Xooms, but after trying to root my Australian Xoom and bricking it I would really appreciate if someone can write a guide detailing all the steps from what software is need to how to root and install HC3.1
Like I said I know there is a lot of guides on here but I cant risk doing the wrong rooting process again, as the shop wont fall for a faulty app install twice !
Many thanks to all the devs on here making our Xooms so much better!!
What about this one

Hi yes I have seen this one but the guides it links too are not really newbie friendly, they assume I already know what they are talking about

I had no idea what adb was until a week ago, i just went through it all step by step. Its not that hard to learn, as long as you follow it exactly as written you can't go too wrong. If you have any problems there's heaps of people here who can help you anyway.
There is a few guides in the Q & A section, which is where this should have been posted also.

What you'll need to do is download the Ace Hack Kit, but unfortunately it has been suspended due to mistreatment on the forums. So you'll have to find another method of downloading it, or I'll ask him if I can post it.
After having your phone rooted, you can THEN go into CWM and flash your custom ROM
U can download it from the Desire HD forum, its the same

No you can't. attn1 took it off of there too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377119
attn1's post is #7
I think that's what triggered it in the first place.
It was nice while it lasted. OP - You'll need to find someone who has the latest hack kit uploaded somewhere else to share with you. Note: attn1 has taken down his IRC and will no longer be supporting his hack kit - so you're on your own except for the minor assistance the community might be able to provide
Ah - Post 10 - alternative root, s-off method:

You mistakingly got thanked for that - lucky dog.
Read the "Effen Manual". From what I recall seeing in the hack kit thread the password should be in there. This was to ensure users were READING
Also, make sure you read the FAQ section in the "effin manual" since that will provide vital information regarding where the password is in the hack kit folder.
If you still need the most up to date hack kit PM me and I can provide it to you.
I just dont understand why the download was taken off. All he has to do is no longer support it and not respond to questions/answers that he may deem as unfit for the development section.
From what i read in the thread it appears there was just a simple misunderstanding as far as the use of the development forum rather than using the Q/A section along with a user questioning the possibility that the hack kit is not perfect.

This x1298540928756 (however it's his software and he can do with it as he pleases)
However it looks like JSL's procedure essentially does the same thing, but it's not in a "1 step" GUI like attn1's was. It's more closely resembles versions of the hack kit before attn1 started the GUI
Edit: I bet this (http://www.xda-developers.com/android/how-to-root-the-htc-desire-hd/) irked him too. A) no credit to attn1 in this article B) Let's be honest, how many times have we seen attn1 tell people to stop watching videos and read the effen manual?

Thanks to XDA member JSLEnterprises
attn1 - thanks for your long running support of your kit. I can only imagine the frustration you are/were feeling over the last couple of months. Your software was legendary and you obviously took this community leaps and bounds further than we otherwise could have.

This.
I hate that XDA has become a spoonfeed me or I'll throw a fit type community.
People need to appreciate what's been done for them and STFU.
i need LOTS of help!
First i hate that people are so mean and inconsiderate of those trying to help...I am a total noob. I attempted a week ago to root my HTC Aria, and i did it BUT as soon as i did i guess i downloaded the latest HTC software that i am finding is IMPOSSIBLE to root, no matter how many different methods i try! in the cmd prompt and the adb devices part it never works...SO i am thinking of attempting rooting my HTC Inspire 4G with the 2.3.3 software and i am scared because i cant seem to find a good root for dummies...i get sent to outdated or no longer in used links and i am so frustrated...It shouldnt be that hard..can someone please help!

XDA = development site, not hold my hand I'm a noob help me site. It's because of complaining like this that got the development for the hack kit and attn1 to stop in the first place. If you think rooting this phone is impossible, then stop now before you destroy your phone. The link to do it the old fashion way was posted above, please read it, learn it and apply it if rooting still seems like something you wanna do. Educating yourself before you destroy your phone shouldn't be that hard or that much to ask. I can't wait to see the butt hurt response from this...more and more the Inspire forums are being overrun with these type of threads...I understand why attn1 got fed up.

Yes, attn1's hack kit was the 'easiest' method available. Hopefully, if he can get some assistance with supporting it, he'll re-release it (follow thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377119&page=3) In the mean time, you can go here (http://driphter.com/index.php?topic=3867.0) and follow the process described (which has been suggested multiple times in this thread). This is essentially the way attn1's hack kit started, before he started making it idiot proof (not calling anyone names, that's just how it is). Many, many users were able to successfully root/s-off using attn1's 'long' method before he started developing his GUI, but if this seems too over-the-top for you then maybe you should rethink the idea of rooting. Hopefully attn1 will re-release his easy to use hack kit, but with the frustration he's dealing with having to put up with users who want to be spoon fed this information is understandable, and I don't blame him in the least bit for pulling it - whether temporary or permanent
IMHO - there should be no 'root method for dummies'. You're messing with integral parts of the system when you're doing this and there is potential to permanently damage your phone. If you don't want to learn what the process is actually accomplishing, you shouldn't be doing it in the first place. Is there a specific reason you want root/s-off?

This has been covered, there is no need to provide anymore links or reiterate what has been said in this thread numerous times or in any of these "OMGZ WHERE DID THE HACK KIT GOOO HELPP MEEE" threads. If users want to educate themselves its out there waiting for them to read it. If they don't that's on them. I'm personally happy that ATTN1 took it down, I have no idea how he put up with it for this long.
I had something like this in the general chat but now i have enough posts i figured i would move it to here.
So far my tablet is rooted,unlocked, and i believe i have successfully downloaded seans tweak.
But now i think i want to give the hydro 4.3 a go. It seems to have solid reviews about really pushing the tablet. But i am open to suggestions on other roms. My main problem is i just don't know enough about doing this. I have read the directions over and over but some of the steps I don't know to do. Can someone go with me step by step to get this done?
There is a reason you can't post here at first. It's so you have time to read the rules. No help for questions in the wrong section. Try Q&A.

OK, questions should not be posted in the dev section; regardless of whether or not it is a ROM inquiry. As for particular question: give each one a shot and see which one works best for you! Asking people which ROM is the best will only result in purely subjective responses.

Hi guys, i just made an account with this website and may i say that this site is huge and full of amazing knowledge. I have been reading up on how to root my HTC One X AT&T version for about an hour now. The thing is i cannot for the life of me find a Step- by -Step procedure that thoroughly explains the process. If anyone here would please show me a link to one i would GREATLY appreciate it. I'm sorry about starting a new thread but i really cannot find an extensive write-up.
Thanks for the help. :good:
First off, this should be in the q&a section, not general. Secondly, the root method can be found in this very section you posted in, so you must not have looked very hard.

Sorry man. The thing is like i said, this will be my first time doing this. I've done jailbreaks but never a root on an android. Thus i need a Step -by- Step link which i could not for the life of me find. All i find are things like: 1. Do this on boot loader 2. Install this. 3. You're done
You should have a look at this thread, it's a resource thread so it has links to many useful topics. You should also Google something like adb/fastboot for beginners, you'll definitely need that.
If I have any advice to give, it is to read, read, and read some more. Knowledge is your friend. Jumping into something like this head first without having a working knowledge is very dangerous and could lead to you bricking your phone, and we don't want that.
Also, stay on XDA, don't get information from anywhere else. Other sites don't properly distinguish between our model (Evita) and the international One X (Endeavoru).
