[Q] SuperOneClick for the Htc Inspire 4G

I am new to this website, I wish to root my Htc Inspire 4g. I've heard of using SuperOneClickv1.5.5-ShortFuse.zip... would that work when My Android is running Froyo?

nope, use the guide that is stickied at the top of general as your reference.

But, it's very hard to understand that guide... (once again sorry for my noobish comments) Please explain it to me?

Both rooting methods are extremely watered down have you tried downloading either of them?
I am not trying to be rude, but if it is hard to understand, then I would recommend reading more before you root.

If you're unwilling to read, learn, read some more, research, read even more and try, then don't do it.

Not trying to pile on, but... Seriously?
There's nothing difficult about the guide. The rooting techniques have been simplified as much as possible, for this phone.
Customizing this phone is going to require a little bit of effort on your part, it's not going to root itself.

So I just select one guide from the rooting thread from mudknof*
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

yeah I know how you feel about rooting O/P but I used this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961406 also androidcentral.com is another good site too if you have not been their already.
Also I would look into how to un-root the htc inspire just in case if you want to go back.
I had to watch the video a couple of times but it was not to bad but I do recommend this make sure your updated I know I had to do a wifi update then your good.
But if you have your phone all set up root will rest your phone all over again contacts will be their just if you added or did anything to it. It sucks it took me like 30 mins to set everything back up lol

Ok, I understand rooting gives you access and you have to downgrade your phone for rooting and then get a custom rom to pyt to a rooted current or future version. Am I right?

Well from what I read on roms, roms will give you customs look and some better features I have not added and Roms yet really just wanted to remove bloatware Im still reading about Roms and how to install them...Also I was just reading through the steps about rooting I think by far bubbys root is the easiest way to root.
lol I ask a lot of ?s ha http://forum.androidcentral.com/inspire-rooting-roms-hacks/88094-rom-t-stock-rom-sense-unroot.html
just in case you need it.. Cause I did root back to stock..which now Im thinking about rooting today.. Just cause I dont like the bloatware but which is nice about root it gives unknown sources thats if you DL and app rather then the market place right now I use Side Load Wonder Machine its a pain to go through the pc but unknown allows you to DL 3rd party off a site. but other then having bloatware removed and having unknown sources thats all I did for rooting. Helpful hint is also looking into how to make a back up of your phone just in case something messes up.

Thank you so much for your support everyone... so one final question... what is bloatware?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

bloatware is all the pre install apps and like the blockbuster ATT nav, yelp etc. even though this is for droidX it works the same just copy and past this -----> Droid X Bloatware Removal How To Android 2.2 FroYo <-------- in youtube and its the 1st, or you can use titanium backup Pro to freeze the bloatware which makes the OS of the phone think its not their anymore and you can unfreeze it later if you need it.. over all its to save some memory on the phone..

So how do i save all memory to my sd card before rooting?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

what do you mean memory? like in apps,pics? their is an app called app2Sd in the market https://market.android.com/details?id=com.a0soft.gphone.app2sd&feature=search_result
that may help also heads up if you root you can do a back up with titanium back up and it restore your apps on that half Im not a 100% sure just google it one of the things I miss from my iphone is the itunes for backing up my apps.Still have not found a program thats like itunes for backing up apps fully and add them back if needed.
to bad you can just drag your apps to your Pc and save.. =(

But what will move my pictures and music to the sd card?

They should already be there. The phone stores that kind of stuff on the SD card, because internal storage is limited.

Ok, and one more question... Where do I find the rooting program for the htc inspire? Can someone please post a link?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

for moving the pic and music I would just move it to your PC and when your doing rooting just transfer them back.
Im about to root my phone again in like 15mins Im using this again

Don't use ROM Manager. Go to this thread and flash it with Odin: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112804

Come on man, read a little before posting. I know, im a **** but you shouldn't attempt to root if you don't know this. Rooting can be hazardous to your health so do a bit of research and save a trip to the phone ER.

You're not a ****, you are just stating your opinion
Now, in response to that, I did in fact read (alot), and the reason I asked was because:
1) A lot of postings says use RM, it's so much easier, so I have been doing that on the wife and daughter OD's and it works like a charm - so I want it for my Charge.
2) The cwm page here:
clockworkmod.com / recovery_images.html
Lists "Samsung Charge" as an option (!)
So I figured MAYBE the Charge rom was identical to one of the 4 listed options and it was one of those "you just have to know" kind of things.
But, no matter what, thank you for responding, I don't take offence to blunt reply AND it answered my question; I now KNOW that I cannot use RM.

I gotcha. Ya rom manager is a great tool, I used it all the time on my original incredible. But you absolutely cannot use it on the charge. Im actually not even sure why or what it will do to your phone so you're right about "you just have to know".
The only reason I was so blunt was because I have been seeing a lot of people that are new to rooting (and even new to android, not saying that you are) really messing up their phone. Would hate to see that happen here due to some silly ignorance.
My phone is my only connection to the internet so if I bricked it I would have no idea how to fix it and would have no way to post on here for help without finding a library or something which may as well not exist in L.A. That is why I think knowing and reading is so important.

Carrier IQ on SGS4G?

So I've been reading about this Carrie IQ stuff and was wondering if anyone knows where it's located on the phone so I can either remove it or freeze it with titanium? Thanks in advance for your help/advice.

I don't see it
I don't see it here on my SGS4G. I'm running Airfluip's AOSP Style ROM and I don't see the process (Com.carrieriq.tmobile) and when I ran the detector app that the person who published his CarrierIQ findings created, it appeared to have confirmed that I do not have it on my phone. You can get the app here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17612559&postcount=110 to check your own phone.
It appears that Samsung/T-Mo did put it on the SGS2 for T-Mobile according to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1340014 so I wonder if it is in the stock GB update. If any of you check your own devices, please let us know what ROM you are using.

[Q] Generic root for ICS?

My mate has bought this Android set top box made my Strong. Model number is NRT-4
Seems to be running very generic vanilla ICS but he want's to run an app on both phone and STB which allows him to control the STB from his phone but the STB server app requires root.
No threads exist here for it so I guess no one has any confirmed method for rooting it yet. Is there a method for rooting generic android devices? It requires SU and Busybox. Cheers

Sorry my englisch is not that great and could you provide a picture of it or a link?
Then maybe I could help you
