[Q] Debranding on rooted branded DHD

Hi all,
I've recently got myself a DHD branded to 3 australia. As i'm very new to android, i tried to get some more info regarding debranding & rooting the device on xda and google, but yet i didn't couldn't get a definite answer.
I'm aware the visionary r12 gives us a temp and permroot. My question is, if i just want to debrand my DHD to an official WWE rom, do i need to do anything else like making goldcard beside getting a perm root??? or do i need to get s-off as well?
Sorry for the noob question but i really appreciate if someone could explain the process in a bit more details. thanks so much for your help. cheers jeff

[Q] Rooting motorola XT910 - eu model

Hello,
I'm about to root my Motorola with DoomLords/zergRush root ware. But before I do, I was wondering if anyone could tell if this will affect the up coming update to ICS on the phone in the coming weeks? and if not, and after the update, will I have to root the phone again?
The work been done here on rooting phones is brilliant and I couldn't agree more with TrevE about the issues around privacy..
I am a total noob, I hate myself, and this is my first phone so want to be careful..
Cheers,
Remy.

Question about rooting.

Just wanted to know since I'm coming over from the G2 and I want to go ahead and root the phone. Just got it today out of the box, do I need to downgrade anything before I follow the root instructions? The tutorial I found isn't very clear on that and I dont want to end up messing the phone up already.
If this helps you answer my question I've got.
Android Ver 2.3.4
HTC SENSE 3.0
no you don't need to downgrade anything
Thanks a lot bro.
I had a g2 plus 3 replacements rooted everyone trust me this is way easier. Plus no downgrade required. Just rooted my 4g slide
Nope. Our phone is pretty easy to s-off and root.

[Q] Easiest way to root your Sensation after OTA ICS?

Hello everybody, I got my Sensation few months ago as a replacement for my G2 and now im thinking to root it. Now I see there are a few threads on how to root it (S-Off) but Im not sure which one to follow. I rooted my G2 before and it looks like Sensation would be easier but I just want to make sure.
If somebody would direct me to the right thread where its proven to work I'd appreciate it, I would prefer to root it without unlocking the phone, but if its easier I wouldnt mind.
I got stock ICS 4.0.3 with sense 3.6
Thnaks.

[Q] Rooting HTC Droid Inc 2

Hi everyone,
I'm probably beating a dead horse, but I'm a total newb regarding rooting etc. I have an HTC Droid Inc 2 with 0.98.0000 (2.3.4) and would like to root my phone. I realize that the only way to root this phone is to downgrade it to 2.3.3 so that it can be S-offed. I'm trying to decide as to whether or not it would be worth downgrading. Would I be able to upgrade after rooting? If a version update is finally available, would I be able to upgrade without having to unroot? Also how do firmware updates from Verizon play into this? Can they be installed manually after rooting? Thanks in advance for your advice.
