Ok, so I have an HTC Aria and I'm new to the whole rooting thing. I've read a bunch of articles on how to root my phone. I can't seem to torture it out! This is odd cause I'm usually the tech type. Please leave links for the files I need and step by step instructions anyone can understand.
HTC aria android development thread, under the stickies section is the super guide to aria. Everything is in there with all the links.

Is your Android ver 2.1 or 2.2?
My Aria is running 2.2
Thanks andrew.cambridge! I found the forum and I'm going to be successfully rooting my phone in the next hour. I'll let all of you know how things work out!

If your Aria is running 2.2 then don't be disappointed when you can't root it. The HTC Froyo 2.2 update cannot be permanently rooted at this point in time.

How long do you guys think it will be before there is a method as simple as just flashing a honeycomb rom without having to do the method in the development section?
I really want honeycomb but i'm not sure the risk of bricking is worth it. i LOVE my flyer and would be devastated if i bricked it!
Just curious as to what you guys think.

this up to HTC and does have nothing to do with what is going on here. true that the procedure is quiet difficult, but not impossible. if you addicted same me , sure you're not gonna wait till HTC will come with their release. it's up to you which method are you going to choice.....

Whatever method is used, it will still likely require the flashing of the HC HBoot and radio, so your risk of brickage is probably about the same regardless.

Think what trips most people up is the usage of adb. I was having problems with my laptop recognizing my flyer when I was I hboot, so I couldn't get past the 1st step. :/ I only had a short time to mess with before I had to leave on business. My question is, I've flashed radios, kernels and tons on my Incredible and Thunderbolt, without using adb... I'm assuming that the same could be done, if the files were named correctly? (Pimgblah)
Well I would say I'm very familiar with adb, but I was still reluctant. (i went ahead and did it anyway ) and I'm incredibly glad I did. But answering your question, you don't only use adb in the guide. You also use fastboot. So I'm sure there is some difference there or something (i'm no expert) .

[TheRootofAllEvo.com] Correction: HtcEvoHacks has a good guide for hboot 1.50 and video walkthrough as well.
There is a "Sticky Rollup" in the Development section of the common links.
I also have some Links gathered up (xda & others) from my hboot 1.50 learning curve so far: http://forum.sdx-developers.com/?topic=18827.0
Follow HTC METHOD for root. Then use CWM for recovery.
HTC will tell you to have latest java installed along with ADB and HTC sync.
Easy as pie... If you get lost one of us will help ya.
I've seen the first thread by the first guys post and it was very very confusing I've never used adb or anything like that so I'm not very familiar with how to get things to work on that
And I seen the second post's link and I'm not sure what to do exactly lol I'm not on my computer right now so I just looked quickly through it to see if I knew the method or not
And thanks for your help
Is anyone willing to like chat with me and help me step by step lol??
Its my cuzins evo and I don't wanna mess it up lol

It's easy follow the steps on HTC DEV when it comes to rooting
Adb is easy once you get the hang of it. The guide isn't bad. Htc uses no the guy who posted his in the DEV section.
Just alot of reading...
Hello all
Had a crack at trying to root my legend about 4 months ago. Got stuck at crackin.bat and gave up.
But I think it's time. I've got Froyo 2.2 with HBOOT 1.01, are there some specific instructions for my device that won't confuse me
And I love HTC Sense too much to go with plain Cyanogenmod, is there any ICS based roms with sense? Something like how the HTC One V looks?
in the meantime htc has provided an official way to unlock the legend's bootloader - you can just follow the instructions here: http://htcdev.com/bootloader/ or have a lokk into the corresponding forum thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498298
the development of ics for our legend is still in the early stages, so at the moment you certainly won't find a rom which bundles ics & sense. however in the development section there are gingerbread based roms, that come with sense...

There are quite a few ways to roots your legend now since Boot unlocker has been released for the Legend.
1. Downgrade and etc.: Never used this method but it was the first guide I read and it confused the heck out of me.
2. HBOOT 1.01 root: The way I used to unlock my HTC Legend very easy and comprehensive guide in this forum, CHECK IT OUT HERE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1223950
3. HBOOT unlocker (Haven't used this guide before)
From the title of your thread I sense that you had trouble downgrading. No problems! Just use the 2nd or 3rd method listed above, the first guide was only used because the Legend still had eclair and the 2nd or 3rd method wasn;t released yet.
ICS rom is still in Beta version but can be used (Nearly fully functioning ). Check it out here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562595
Best of luck!

Many of the links to the required programs/files in that guide no longer work.
I pretty much rooted mine the way it's described in the first post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1596635
Look in the Legend Android Development for ROM's with Sense
If you need further help, don't hesitate to ask
Yeah, just use the boot unlocker method since its the newest method.

Wow that's exciting. Didn't know that HTC released their own method.
I go to the site and click Begin Unlocking Bootloader but nothing happens

I used ogo2's gingerbread rom for quite a while, never saw that issue. If you look through the thread in the dev section for the rom, I have seen others with this issue too, but I don't know the cause or solution.

i just got my amaze yesterday, i installed the official ics OTA this morning, and now i want to root it. Does the one click root program work for the Amaze while it is on stock ics or would i have to downgrade?
I'm not sure, Look for hasoons all in one tool in the dev section. Has recoveries root and another one specifically for s off. You will find you will use his tool if you flash constantly

Hasoons tool wouldnt work for me when i updated to the WIND ICS OTA, i had to find the sudo package and install it via recovery. it did work for me in gingerbread.. just a heads up..
No one click. Read the stickies... Learn about unlocking bootloaders, 4 ext recovery, flashing superuser in recovery, and supercid. It's all rather simple. PLENTY of threads about it.

It might help you if you took the time reading the Amaze 4G Bible.
We recommend every newbie to read it. It provides a lot of useful info.
After reading it and understanding how rooting is done on the amaze, come back.
