Both the hack kit and CyanogenMod guide will not work. Both require you to go to that goldcard site, which is down. Those of us trying to root are out of luck.
I think i might have stumbled upon a goldcard maker program. See if this works (havent tested(used revskills)) http://android.modaco.com/topic/308798-pc-application-goldcardtool/

You still have to use revskills.de with that app.

wifi won't work
I got everything installed,but now my wifi won't work.ive tried too diffent networks. logs in but not internet. only cell phone data internet works
You are on the downgrade rom. You need to flash a working rom thru h-boot. With a custom rom, rom manager will be included. With a stock rooted rom, you can download it from the market.

I got clockwork mod installed,and can download some mods,but is there a way to get rom on computer and save them to sd card?
Yes, just download the rom of choice on your PC. Connect your phone to PC and transfer the rom. Boot into clockwork wipe and flash a away

Check out the dev section, their are a bunch their. Save it somewhere convenient for you, so its easier to find for flashing. Root of SD card or maybe make a folder named roms

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?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
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?

I used bubby's, and there were no errors. And now I can't hear when I am on the phone.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I would suggest you download this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1058042
Its a stock, rooted ROM with the latest updates.
Rename it PD98IMG.zip and put on the root of your SD card.
Pull your battery, then replace it...boot into hboot (vol down + Power)...if you're Radio S-Off, it should flash this image and you'll be stock rooted.
Once you get that flashed and loaded...you should have no problems with ROM Manager or SuperUser.
Just be sure you're Radio S-Off and it will say that at the top of your screen when you enter hboot.
It sounds like to me that you didn't load the upgrade ROM using bubby's one click. In other words...you thought you were complete but not quite.

If you want sideloading then download the second option...once this is on your phone you should be able to hear again.
Like I said...I suspect you didn't quite complete the rooting process...or something went wrong.

you can straight download it to the root of your SDcard...but you'll still have to rename it PD98IMG.zip before you can load it through hboot.
If you did bubby's one click...then you should be familiar with this step.

Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
not reboot...boot into the bootloader. Remember this won't work if your not S-off.
Boot into hboot...then let it find and load the PD98IMG.zip.
Then it will ask you to upgrade. Volume up to say yes...then let it do its thing.
Easy as pie....
are you sure you used bubby's one click?
It does this step twice during the process.

I don't mind helping people, with the limited knowledge I've gained here so far, but this is a prime example of why people flame and get pissed at new users.

Hi, I created my GC and Rooted my phone with my old MAC.
I used 'hack kit'.
My question is, can I download 'hack kit' to my brand new PC and flash my phone back to stock??
Why? I have a defected phone and I want toflash back to stock so I can get a new one!
You should be fine. I started my root on pc had trouble and completed on a mac. The process for rooting a phone is the same just different commands for the different os.
I used the hack kit, I'm s off, everything seemed to go ok when flashing back to stock.
I DO NOT have any sound??

NEED SOME HELP.... Im currently running Cyanogenmod 7.03 and iv noticed some problems. Since i flashed this rom my wifi connection has been abit slower and so has my mobile network speeds. Ive done a speed test and i get around 8 or 9 down, i used to get 13-14 on wifi, and 1-3 up, i used to get 4-5 up. On my mobile network iv noticed dramatic changes. I used to get around 4-5 down and 1-2 up but now i get 1-2 down and less than 1 up. Im thinking that Cyanogenmod 7.03 doesnt support hspa+, but iv looked through the forums and it supposedly does....any help would be much appreciated.

What radio are you using? If you haven't flashed a new radio since rooting you need to. CM7 supports HSPA+, but you need to be using a proper radio&ril combo.
Im using the same radio that i had before cm7. Is there any radio you recommend? Thanks.

+1, install radio through bootloader mode, not recovery mode. Make sure the radio zip file is named PD98IMG.zip and located in the root of your sd card.

No need to re-root if you're still S-OFF, just install this one:

It's a PD98IMG type install so you don't need ClockWorkMod recovery--just put it on SD card as "PD98IMG.zip", boot to hboot and follow prompts.
You can also flash CWM recovery as a PD98IMG and then install anything.
