I was told in another thread that it may cause problems but I do not think it will.

Unlocking bootloader is probably most complicated.

No, its not at all complicated. HTC has presented it in step by step in easy way....
Using user-level apps to do kernel-level operations is always risky.

No, unless you have CWM installed.
I do have cwm installed

Yes, download a ROM using your phone, use a file manager like astro to then move the ROM to the root of your SD card, then use it to check the md5 check sum to make sure you don't have a corrupt download, then flash as you would normaly throught CWM.....that's it.
Remember to do a backup of your current ROM first...

tats wat i like about android over iphone
with custom recovery, root explorer or any other file explorer, u can flash any rom on the go w/o the aid of a pc.
what i do is install astro explorer - having the option to check md5sum
download any rom from anywhere...
after finish download, use astro n move the rom.zip to root of sd card, boot into recovery n flash it
I must add : make sure the rom can be flash with cwm, if not you could semi-brick your phone. But custom roms are usually made for cwm flashing. Only official rom can't be flashed via cwm they are usually in .exe file, but you can also find them in zip file sometimes and you must extract it before flashing via pc.
How do you install the offical .exe roms then? And how do I check md 5 sum?

Just follow the directions when you open the .exe
Warning though - you'll lose S-OFF and CWM
google for md5 checker

I flashed the stock wwe eur ruu and it left my phone s-off, even though it flashed the h-boot. It did put the recovery back to stock though and lost root, which can easily be sorted.

The only thing that is the ROM sizes are over 300mb and I hit the tmobile 5gb cap so many times downloading on my phones data so I need to use WiFi more... But with the nexus one most roms were under 80 mb so it wasn't a problem . But its still cool you can switch roms on the fly

Official rom (RUU) are only b able to flash via pc unless u extract the upsate.zip n put it in ur root of ur sdcard.. well of coz extracting n moving it needs the pc too...
As for md5sum, astro manager does the trick.. press n hold on the zip file n press "properties" u will c all the details of the file include date time n of coz the md5sum. Do give it some time to load up the details though.
I saw a thread somewhr tat theres a md5checksum app in the market.. u might wanna check it out too..

How To Root Htc explorer

Learn:- How To Root Htc Explorer
hello, i got a new explorer today, it has a chinese rom installed in it. with ton of bloatware and only 49mb free space
and superuser is already installed (but no market)
When i turned it off- took battery out- pulled it back- Power + volume down button- On top it showed UNLOCKED
does it mean bootloader is unlocked? or i have to do it
can I install another rom (stock from stock roms thread) without rooting and without installing recovery like twrp, or only without rooting and installing recovery only
Help me fast plz or any other way to flash rom without bootloader etc
If it says unlocked that meens it is unlocked, check out if it has recovery or not, without recovery you can't flash roms, install recovery then flash whatever you like.
Ur boot loader is unlocked
Install twrp and flash any rom u like .....

check if you can boot into a custom recovery like twrp or cwm etc....if yes.. then you're welcome to the world of flashing custom roms...just search for the thread named everything HTC explorer and you'll get all you want

I am very sorry to ask you guys about this but I was very keen to know about this question that why doesn't the z for root doesn't work on our pico or superoneclick and will z4root brick me if i try i am stock
Because first we have to unlock boot loader which cannot be done by z4 root or any other app. So simply follow the official procedure.

what about this anyway

I told you this all work only with unlocked boot loader or s off devices. HTC has not made Pico so open but yeah it has allowed us official procedures to unlock it.

100% agreed with subh98 !! :good:
i rooted using this procedure by jaggyjags. the most clean way by far i came across.
P.S: i rooted my phone last month itself, by this method.

No use of it ......
If u again relock bootloader
It will show
RELOCKED instead of LOCKED
And for unroot ..try Ruu Rom in android section

Plz give the Link for RUU and how to install RUU? That's the problem..
Sent from my HTC Explorer using xda premium
Well here is how to install ruu http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500165
But anyway WHY THE [email protected]@K do you want to do this, firstly, you can end up with headake if this fails in some place, secondly if you so bad need a stock rom, in my signature is link for flashable one, also if you want to use your warranty, you will fail, because the bootloader after ruu will show re-locked, so there is no point of using ruu.
Oohh.. Btw I'm Not Going To Unroot It, Was Just Asking If There Was Any Procedure To Unroot, For Knowledge..
Sent from my HTC Explorer using xda premium
Aaa that's different. If you JUST need to unroot your phone.....
(have tested this only on galaxy ace, couldn't find link wright now so I'll paste what I did there)
1. go to /system/app whit file manager delete superuser.apk
2. go to /system/xbin and delete this
1. busybox
2. sh
3. sqlite3
4. su
5. su-v1
6. su-v2
7. su-v3
Then just reboot, not sure if it will work with explorer but it should.
Hmm.. Thnx.. But Not Going To Try
Because it's a bit risky and nobody have tried it yet for explorer..
