Hey, I'm not new to Android rooting but I've never had a HTC device so I'm alittle confused on how to root and everything else...I just got this device today..I bought it from a girl selling it thru Facebook. Its on 2.3.3...I don't have a sim card and it needs to be formatted to the right format...I'm using my WiFi connection...I've scanned a few pages on these forums and honestly it all seems confusing....I want this thing rooted...I've seen some things about RUU and bootloaders and etc....also I guess it helps if I tell yall that I have a Windows xp if that matters...can someone direct me to a working guide (an updated one). I can read for myself.....I'm completely new to HTC devices, I know some of you are tired of these kind of threads but there are literally hundreds if not thousands of the same threads here....Rooting my LG was easy as hell..BTW I have a HTC Inspire 4G

Got the chance of updating to one and have been looking for reports, advice feedback on this phone. Is there going to be a section for this phone ?
Thanks
Probably not as it's not an HTC device even though it is branded an XDA.
Is this a HTC only forum then ?
Don't know about that but i do know they have decided not to create a section for things like the Samsung Omnia. But then that is neither HTC nor an XDA.
Seems fair enough, they do say somewhere its HTC only, just read it, be to much if they had to do every windows phone out there. Oh well the Zest is on the way, lest see what it's like in the flesh.
I sure love the XDA site and am sad to have to look elsewhere once I pick up my Droid today. Is there any chance of XDA getting a forum for it on here?
I know that it's normally a HTC only site, but the Sony Ericcson X1 has it's own forum. I assume that's not made by HTC?

Wrong. X1 is made by HTC, that is why it has a forum. No Non-HTC devices here.
Gotcha, thanks for clearing that up for me, even if it is a humongous bummer
Long Live XDA.
Understood the Droid is not an HTC device, so anyone know of an XDA-like forum for Droid users?
I really thought about waiting for an HTC device, but the only one on the horizon is the Dragon/Passion and still too little information is known on that.

WARNING
that site is an absolute zoo D;
noobs everywhere asking the most basic android questions
HOWEVER, they've already established a couple threads on rooting the droid.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4902566 also talking about this topic.
Like I said there, any mods have an opinion on the possibility of establishing a Droid forum?

Hmm..
What about a group of forums for the Eris (HTC Desire) which IS obviously made by HTC? Or should we keep posting in the Hero CDMA forums?
Anyone know an answer to my above post?

Hi! I just got my first Android Phone.
The HTC Inspire.
I've been told I could speed up this phone but I'm also curious to know what else I could do with it?
I used to have an iPhone and I would just change the theme and stuff...
So, I suppose my question(s) is/are;
1. How can I speed up my phone?
2. What can I do with my phone?
3. Is there a site where I can browse custom themes for my phone?
4. how do I add custom ringtones/ringback
5. What are some basic things I should get before I start modding my phone and what are some neat basic add-ons out there to make my phone look "neato"
thanks for taking the time for reading this.
Really? It's here in the forum.
Wow...really...wow. do they not still play the noob video about searching when you first sign up for the site?

Swearing is not allowed in the forums. Only warning. Now as far as the other posts. Welcome to XDA and please do read over the rules you agreed to when you joined. You are expected to search for your answers instead of opening a new thread. Before you brick your phone (make it useless and non returnable) Take a few hours and read up on the stickies. Search around some and read some more. what you are doing is nothing like the Iphone, this is real hacking. Not a simple Security override like jailbreaking. If done wrong you could end up with more problems then you can handle.

Hello,
My HTC HD2 is letting me down at a lot of points. Therefore I'm thinking of buying a new handset.
I do a lot of internetting and multitasking on my phone. Therefore a dual-core processor is a must for me.
I've read up reviews of the handset and it seems to perform quite well.
What do you guys think, should I go for it or shouldn't I?
Also, if I don't like TouchWiz, is there a possibility to installing MIUI on it? I have that on my HTC HD2 right now and I love it.
Thanks!
Hey,
This should be in teh Samsung Galaxy Ace forum. That way, you will get advice from previous owners.
Alternatively, you could put it in the Device suggestions list written by KC.
You could PM a mod and he will help you with moving it.
Just some advice to get you going.
Thanks
Thanks for your reply.
Sorry for my late reply.
Got a HTC One S instead as you can see below, love it!
This topic can be solved/closed if it were me

Thanks, though as I stated I already purchased the HTC One S.

Please use the sticky in this section for all phone decision questions. Thread closed.
This community is the One XL Community, no matter what AT&T calls this phone, its really a One XL, One X LTE. There are some videos on youtube for One X roms but what they fail to mention is what One X they are really for. If you want to keep your phone from becoming bricked, please Only Flash roms from this forum to avoid confusion. I would hate to see more people get stuck on a 2.20 phone or no phone at all. Remember, Always ASK! no matter how dumb the question is, just ask because no one is going to pay for your phone if you brick it. When on youtube or any other site, always check to make sure its for the One XL aka Qualcomm phone or LTE, not the One X Quad core aka Tegra, Nvidia.
Thanks for reading.
I will never understand whats is with the trolls in this community. Last time i tried to warn people not to take the 2.20 OTA i got trolled as well. It seems like people tend to get upset when someone tries to warn others or help. And since you have so much info, Please provide me with the 15+ links to theses threads. Thank you
IMO, we need to have half the first page filled with various warning threads. Nobody reads anything before they flash, then they come crying to us when they f*ck up their phones. I honestly have no sympathy for these clowns. You wouldn't jump in the ocean if you don't know how to swim would ya?

Thread cleaned.
Make sure to only post if you have something relevant to the thread and useful to the community.
Consider this a warning...
Cheers
I agree that if you are unsure you should ask. The only rom ive ever flashed on an adroid phone was from XDA except the old CM roms for my Evo OG. Its MUCH MUCH better to ask and have 3 people tell you to "use the search" and get an answer than brick your phone.
Bump.

Looks like another victim of flashing a One X rom hit the forums. Sadly people just don't read and research before...
Thanks for the warning.. I keep looking for a way to flash this 2.20.. :crying:
