Once updated the official way (RUU from HTC website from AT&T), bringing your phone to android 2.2.2, then their is currently no way to root it. If you rooted from android 2.1 then updated using Cyanogenmod, then go here and use this to root: http://unrevoked.com/recovery/. Download, run it and follow instructions. N.B- This (current version - 3.32) will not work on factory updated android 2.2.2.
P.S. - You should have made this thread in the HTC Aria General section here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=681.

I don't know is that official way i updated my phone.
It was like auto update.
A message poped out and ask me whether want to update the version or not.
Is 2.2 and 2.2.2 equivalent ?

How if i never root before ??

Check your hboot version. Instructions:
1. Turn off your phone
2. Hold volume down
3.Power on (still holding volume down)
Look at HBOOT and reply what version you have. If it is 1.02.0000, then your phone is currently unrootable. If you see 0.57, then you can root your phone by doing what I said in my first post. I don't know why it only says 2.2, but the hboot version will tell it all.

The Asian release was just 2.2

Yea its 1.02.0000 =.=" bad news :/

HTC Official Froyo ROM in RUU
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...3.00.32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed.exe
Enjoy!
wow..thanks...
Is it a version for newer slcd or normal display...or both..??
I don't actually know, but I suppose for both...
There aren't any separate versions, you just need a newer release (such as this) to support SLCD screens.
Running this will update you to froyo, but of course make it impossible to root (for now, at least).
Any word on any improvements in this version?
First look: seems to be the OTA version...
if i extract the zip and make a version with root using dsixda kitchen will remove the hboot..??
with kind regards..Alex
Is this just the same as what all the roms here are based on? Or is it a newer build?

Thank you so much! Been looking for this for past week since apparently I missed my OTA "IMEI cluster" distribution.
Now I have to learn how to install the thing -- since i've never done anything ti an android phone. All my prior experience was with with RUU for Windows Mobile.
Is this where I have to use HTC Sync to install this? (braces for being slapped around)
Thanks for sharing

Jonney - You will need to wait for confirmation from someone more experienced with Android than I am. I have been here at XDA for several years and installed many ROMS onto my Windows Mobile phones... However, for my 2 ANDROID phones I've had since then -- the HERO, and the DESIRE -- I have chosen, for now, to stay with the "stock roms" that are shipped with my phones -- as well as their official updates. To be clear, I have not rooted my Desire. And it is my intent to update my Desire to this new official Froyo Android 2.2 OS update.
It is my understanding that this is the official FROYO UPDATE that GSM Desire Phones have received "OTA" (Over the air) via "Software Updates". LOOK BELOW AT THE SITE image from where this file came. The site is called "Shipped-ROMS". Look at the list of files here. This page is devoted just to the specific phone, the HTC BRAVO, which was the original codename used by HTC before the Desire was actually released. You can confirm that by looking at the "DEVICE DATABASE" that is linked to from the top of every page on XDA-developers, under the XDA logo:
For me, the question is:
HOW to install the file. I *believe* it is done using HTC Sync on your Desktop PC, connected by USB cable to your Desire.
HTC Sync (app for your PC suitable for syncing with the Desire) is downloadable here:
If anyone is here who can confirm the process, it would be helpful to many, thank you! We want apps2sd, "close to" 720p video, and, improved speed!
Thanks for sharing!!!!!
will I be able to apply the ROM even my Desire is an Asia verson?
Got the update already OTA but always nice to have RUU file to hand in case of emergencies - good look!!
so this is actually the newewst version of FROYO 2.2 ?
I found these steps from the forum
somebody brave enough to try?

[Q] Upgrade HTC Aria 2.2

Should I root my phone first before upgrading to 2.2 or upgrade first then root?
If you're talking about the Over The Air (OTA) update that was announced, you should only upgrade with that if you don't want to root or customize anymore. For the moment, that OTA will take away root if you have it and you won't be able to get it back (for now).
If you're talking about upgrading to 2.2 using one of the ROMs posted here on XDA, then you need to root your phone in order to have the option to flash one of those onto your Aria.

Thanks that was very helpful! I'm going to root first them upgrade with one of the 2.2 ROMs here. I didn't know an OTA 2.2 update was out for the Aria already.
Well, it is and it isn't... it's available for non-branded Arias. AT&T hasn't released their version of the 2.2 update for the Aria, but when they do it will break your root access if you install it. At least temporarily. There's really no reason to use the official updates unless you need to return your Aria for some reason. Otherwise, you'll have more features using the custom ROMs here.
With the 2.2 upgrade for the Aria, were there any advancements on Adobe Flash?

No since this is an HTC Sense ROM, it still uses HTC Flash Lite just like the original ROM did. The Aria processor is not currently supported by Adobe Flash 10.x.
ok so I got a question. I have an ATT aria can I get the HTC 2.2 rom on my phone and then root my phone?
No, at the moment you can't. If you install the HTC OTA update you will lose root and be unable to get it back until one of the devs figures it out again. There are, however, plenty of Froyo ROMs to choose from, so you really don't need the HTC update to get 2.2.
Edit: Nevermind, looks like I spoke too soon. See this thread:

What's the best ROM out there right now? Which one would you recommend?

Currently, the two Froyo (Android 2.2) contenders for the Aria are CyanogenMod 6.1 and Liberated FR008.
Cyanogen offers a more unedited Android product with access to all sorts of settings and customization options. Liberated is more of a stock HTC Sense version of Android. Both ROMs are pretty much the creation of XDA member Attn1 who spends a ton of time developing for the Aria and here on the boards answerings questions.
The cool thing is that once you have rooted your Aria and installed Clockwork Mod Recovery, you can make a Nandroid back-up which will save your current setup along with all of your settings so that you can freely install these ROMs knowing that you can always safely return to your back-up if you don't like it. It's very... liberating!

[Q] HTC Update - software version 1.45.531.1 with S-off, Revolutionary, Perm Rooted?

Hello,
I am running stock rom with S-off, Revolutionary, and perm rooted. I have been out of the country and tried searching the forums but cant find an answer. I keep finding instead of updating, install a custom rom. I don't want to change roms, because with setcpu and anker 1900 battery; I am able to go 2 full days without a charge with heavy usage.
Can I install the update, or do I need to do something else first?
Is there steps on what I need to do?
Thanks for any help.
You would be better off searching the forums for a rooted version of the update. That way you can stay stock.

[Q] Is Android Mytouch [HTC Glacier] 2.3.4 rootable?

My Question would be from a few days of looking around and asking for some help.
I was wondering if the MyTough 4G - HTC glacier 2.3.4 is rootable yet.
Phone: My Touch 4G
Carrier: T-Mobile
Kernal: 2.3.4
Or
....
Would it be possible to downgrade the kernal of my phone to the previous rootable kernal?
thanks for all the help ladies and gents.
New to this site, so i don't know if ill be checking this as much as i need to to find out my answer. If you could please message me with a response or if you have AOL messanger you can AIM me: sampsonlabarr
again, Thanks you developers.
It is rootable. Go to the glacier forums and there is information on how to downgrade the software and root the phone.
Did you find out how to downgrade your android version 2.3.4?
The instructions I saw assume you have SU authority. I dont.
I downloaded the ROM, and saved the MISC.IMG but cannot move it to the dev/block as I dont have permission.
When I do the hboot, (power and volume down) it sees the new rom and examines the .zip file but no prompt on loading it. Just finished.
I need help.
I want to root it to load a new rom.
Thanks.

Hi,
If you read the documentation that comes with revolutionary, it will s-off the sensation.
It does matter which base is installed.
