somebody please help

One-click Root and Gingerbreak don't work.... at all!
So, to help you out here's what you need to do: Re-run Revolutionary!
The reason you THOUGHT the program had hung is because it was downloading the Clockwork Mod Recovery files in the background (you need to be patient).
Once that's done...
Download this ZIP file, and place it on the root of your SD card.
With your phone connected to your PC via USB cable (and command prompt open in the Platform-tools folder of the Android SDK) type "adb reboot recovery"
From recovery, you want to install the su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip file onto your phone (Install update from Zip, Choose Zip from sdcard).
Bingo.... rooted phone! Enjoy!

I waited for almost 10 minutes on this screen
This program has stopped working
And without doing all this can I install custom ROM sense 3.0 ?

Issue solved. Downloaded img zipped and flashed from hboot
thanks anyways

Aria Problem (Rooting)

I have an Aria and I rooted (idk exactly how i did it).
I have htc sync and adb install on my win7 machine.
I used superoneclick the first time I rooted my phone.
I got my wife the same phone. I went to root it, superoneclick worked (so I thought).
I went into reboot into recovery and I end up with the UPSIDE RED TRIANGLE WITH THE EXCLAMATION MARK!!!!!!!!!!!
I wipe my machine free of HTC and rooting product. Reinstalled adb and then used revoked and am still SOL.
I have superuser installed and have rom mananger installed, but I cannot get into recovery. ROM Manager even installed the latest clockwork mod.
But I'm getting the UPSIDE RED TRIANGLE WITH THE EXCLAMATION MARK!!!
HELP!!!!! PLEASE!!!
I tried to unroot with superoneclick and this is what I get:

I tried it again superoneclick froze on me.
check out the Aria Superthread Guide
I'll give it a whirl....
OK the .exe stops downloading from megaupload at 33.4mb. I even bought the premium.
Any other ideas?
SOLUTION!!!
So I found the ROM on the HTC site:
http://www.htc.com/us/support/aria-att/downloads/
I flashed it.
Then I got this error:
Code:
Internal error: am reported error starting service
I googled it and I found this forum:
http://androidforums.com/aria-all-things-root/248603-unrevoked-error-am-reported-error-starting-service.html
Great success!!
I reverted unrevoked to 2.1 and it worked!!!
glad you worked it out

[Q] Restore Root - Stuck

Hopefully someone can help me out on this one because I'm not quite sure what to do at this point. I have a G2x that was having multiple issues so I decided to root and install clockworkmod recovery so that I could flash CM7RC1. I flash CM7RC1 successfully but failed to realize that I did not properly install CWM as I accessed it via ROM manager (lack of proper reading on my part). Since going to CM7RC1 I've lost root and am unable to use Super One Click 1.9.1.0 to get it back. I seem to have lost all Linux commands (ls won't even work through the terminal emulator) so when Super One Click runs it says FAIL as it cannot chmod or mount. If you have any idea on how I can restore root or CWM let me know. Thanks!

HA! Well be that as it may, is there anything I can do...or am I stuck?
Fixed the issue by NVFlashing Clockworkmod recovery with TGA_Gunnman's excellent one-click utility. After that it was easy to restore the backup I had made.

Just so you know...the process to root differs with almost every phone. Without having your phone specs it is pretty hard to help you out.

Too tell you the truth, I do not know what this error means, but I can tell you another rooting method that is meant for froyo operating systems. It is easier than the method you are currently attempting, and should get the job done. OK, go on Google and look up z4root. Make sure it is the newest version and download it. Install it on your phone, you may have to allow non,market apps in the settings menu. Open the app hit permanent root, wait a little while, your phone should reboot and you are officially rooted. If z4root freezes up, it is OK, this app can not brick your device because it is just a security exploit. Pull the battery and try again. I hope this works for ya.
The antivirus on your desktop might have deleted the actual exploit (psneuter). Try to keep your antivirus disabled while repeating all steps (starting from installing the application, since the previous install might have been corrupted by the antivirus).
Or, better, use the vulnerable recovery method.

That said on checking with Root Checker app by joeykrim it shows I have root access.
I haven't done the part after SuperOneclick where I have to install stock kernel.
Someone please tell me soon what to do next cause I'm just stuck here scared to go ahead and use my phone. I've still put it on flight mode for past almost 2 hours
