Hey everyone, I'm a bit of a noob, so please bear with me. I'm trying to install the HTC USB drivers, so that I could root my device. Problem is, when I download them and follow the instructions to install them, windows comes up with an error that says they could not be installed. Anyone have a work around? Thanks!

There are plenty of threads in the development section to help you with this.
When I rooted my phone i was also confused because my phone restarts like 10 times and i was so confused what to do so the only thing you can do is wait and if it doesn't solve your problem then try another usb port and if it doesn't work then you might have to try in another system or laptop
Hey guys , sold my iPhone 4 and picked up an htc sensation 4g with tmobile . I have a MacBook so jailbreak was nice and easy ...... Now I'm trying to s-off and get this rooted and having a hard time figuring it out ! I tried using my little brothers win7 laptop and managed to get a beta key ...... My problem is when I use my brothers win7 laptop and try to open the revolutionary.io software it just opens and instantly closes the app ? Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong and is trying to unlock and root with my Mac is useless ? Thanks in advance for any input or help ! P.s I'm not super tech savvy

First of all uninstall HTC sync. From ur laptop just keep HTC driver then reboot it will work after reboot.

When I got this phone earlier I tried to do the s-off things with revolutionary software (this was new to me cause I am coming from a lg all we had to do to root was install gingerbreak), anyway I followed all the steps but when I tried to connect the software would just always say waiting for device???. Anyone have any ideas

I'm trying to unlock my AT&T HOX using the method in the sticky on my Mac.
I'm stuck right here: "Download and install the HTC mobile phone drivers." The drivers are an exe file.
Thanks in advance.
You don't need the drivers.
