HTC Amaze and Macs - General Questions and Answers

I'm using a Macbook Pro and have no clue how to unlock bootloader or root. Im coming from a Droid Incredible where all I needed to use was Unrevoked. This is confusing.

[Q] Inspire 4G rooting help!

Hello xda forums! The Inspire 4G is my first Android phone and already I want to root and install ROMs that fit my personal preference. The problem is I don't know what to do. I came across the thread" [DEV][GUI][RC1][GPL][3-03-2011] HTC Inspire 4G Simple Root and S-OFF" and found that it would be as easy as one click! But unfortunately, I do not know the first thing there is to rooting my phone. If someone could please list the steps I need to follow in order to root my phone using bubby323's GUI, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
mattxmrp
I would read alot of the post in the dev section, you need to make gold card before doing 1click root deal unless bubby included it in it now but read some stuff about it first so you have a better understanding of what is what.

[Q] Root HTC Desire S

Hi fellow HTC Desire S users! I've been searching the net for an hour now on how to root HTC Desire S, but not a clear forum, thread or guide has caught my attention. They're all so vague, if not uncertain. Maybe I'm not searching for the right terms too... I don't know.
I need straightforward answers to these questions:
1. Is there already a tool we can use to root our device?
2. If yes, kindly give me the link or a guide or at least the names of the softwares I should use.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
To achieve root or superuser access, Gingerbreak is the app to use.
However it is only really useful for the DS if your device is s-off. Otherwise any root access is only temp (and difficult to achieve).
There is currently development of a software method to s-off DS phones.
Useful search terms on this forum might be s-on, s-off, gingerbreak, alpharevx.
Good luck

CURRENT Inspire root and rom guides and links?

I love my Inspire but I want to get rid of bloatware and block ads. Easy right? Just root it. Well, every thread I've found has out of date links or says they are not for 2.3 or higher.
All the links to Bubby's one click either say 'nothing to see here' or that they only work for something prior to 2.3.
Other than one link for the Revolution rom with over 750 pages I have read every page and every link referring to rooting and installing a new rom.
Could someone please post a guide with current links? Or just updated links for the old guides if they still work with the new tools?
Thanks for any help guys!

The only working tool for your device is the Advanced Ace Hack Kit, wich is no longer supported here. Follow my signature and you will find the way...

I may sound like a layman, but there used to be a thread in android development subforum under HTC Inspire that offered ACE hack kit, a program that would root your phone and install an advanced "recovery" system in your phone. Among others, this one is by far the easiest and effortless way of rooting the phone. Once the hack kit is installed, you can effortlessly install any ROM that has been tested by many on HTC Inspire, such as these from the link http://theunlockr.com/category/roms-2/android-roms-2/htc-inspire-4g-roms/
However, like another poster pointed out, the dev that offered us the Advanced ACE hack kit (AAHK) is no longer with XDA. May be he has his own website where he offers it for free. This used to be where it was offered.
Ah, the post above, somewhere masked in the sig is a way to get AAHK.
Your signature led to another and then....

I finally found it! There were a few more new websites that still contained bad links. But a few more searches and a read through another 'I can't find it' thread finally got me to a good link.
Thank you again for the good-naturedness of your reply It seems things have gotten very testy in the last 6 months or so. There are obviously a lot of people who are, um, genuinely challenged when it comes to, um, thinking. Based on spelling it seems that the issue (being stupid) is genuine and yelling at them isn't going to help.
So again - THANK YOU! It really did take a specific search to find the link and it took three searches to find the right specific search. You started me on the path to the right search.
Link found on attn1's twitter.
I for sure will donate to him. Hopefully I won't have to bother him with any kickban questions lol.
Well, I just rooted my inspire 4g yesterday and used the method from here:http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Ace:_Rooting_&_CyanogenMod it went smoothly and completed successfully and I flashed the custom rom already.
I tried to follow other hack tools but all them wanted to uninstall htc sync and relative drivers from the computer which is a pain

[Q] Rooting an HTC Inspire 4g

Hello XDA Members - I'm trying to root/install a custom ROM on my HTC Inspire 4g, but pretty much every piece of software in the HTC Inspire subforum contains either dead links or the software doesn't work anymore. Most root programs are for Desire HD and Inspires, but all of those are listed as "No longer working for HTC Inspire."
I see new ROMs posted every day. I have to assume it's possible to root this device. Please advise?
Google search "attn1 AAHK tau shadowchild"
The main developer for the Advanced Ace Hack Kit (all in one, one click root tool), attn1 has left XDA ans has requested to no longer be affiliated with it. In other words, I can't just give you the link
Read the effn manual (in the AAHK) a bunch of times, go on youtube and watch a few videos to see how it goes, and if you get stuck, go to attn1's IRC channel, there'll be someone there to help you.

+1 The AAHK works perfectly, but make sure you're using the latest version 11092012.

[Q] [HELP][Q] Clueless on rooting my htc device {Please Read}

My Device:
Htc Desire/ Inspire HD.
SOFTWARE INFOMATION
Android Version: 2.3.5
Htc sence version: 3.0
Software number: 3.13.707.4
Hello to anyone who is viewing my thread. I'm new here to Xda-deveopers.Com and i would like to know is there any application or form of service that could root my Htc Desire Hd?.
Well this is what has been happening; Ive downloaded multiple applications such as UnlockRoot, HTC QuikRoot, etc. I've been getting errors on all of them, i forgot what they were because I'm so depressed that i can't root my phone D: Haha.
If you require any information about my situation please post it here in the thread.
If you have a solution to my problem that would be greatly appreciated.
I'm not sure if i should just send my phone off to someone on eBay to root it but that sounds a bit dodgy aye. Cheers

Like i said. I've used everything and that doesn't work as of two weeks ago. It's complicated bull****. Too many things popup at the same time and i dont know which one to click. A set of instuctions for a dumbass like me would be nice.
You need to give more detail on what went wrong when you used those tools. We can't help without more information. A set of instructions even simpler than the Easy Ace Root Tool would be tough to find.
