Hi all,
Sorry for the laziness as the answer to this is probably somewhere around here.
Just picked up a Legend as a replacement for my lost Desire HD , looking for a very quick answer, does Visionary work at all for latest firmware on the Legend.
If not, what version do I need to downgrade to to allow Visionary to work.
Thanks
I used Visionary R14 just yesterday to re-root my Legend (H-BOOT 1.01) - seemed to work fine.

huge thanks to anyone who can help me root my phone.
at least post some info l
like what is your firmware version?
allright
where do i find it? what is a frimware?
i meant it when i said i dont know **** about those stuff.
i am from israel and i bought the O1 from orange company in hebrew languang.
it is 2.2.1 android
Settings ---> About Phone ---> Software Version
Only v10b is root-able. If you have other version you gotta downgrade to v10b.
lg-p500-v10d
can one of you guys help me do all those steps? otherwise i will probably screw my phone
I believe you can do it with Superoneclick

you cannot root 2.2.1
you can find all the info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875881
basically find an original LG firmware for your country that is 2.2 (v10b). Then flash phone using flash tool from emergency mode with firmware.
Once you have the original 2.2 rom on the phone, grab Z4root app and then easy to root phone.
Next step is custom rom like cyanogenmod 7 etc if you want real performance! start reading! (alot)
Has anyone tried SuperOneClick to root the O1? They say that it can root any version of Android. Is that true with O1?
No,only 2.2 is rootable for now
I suggest that you read the thread given below

The instructions are well explained there.

Once you root your phone immediately install the recovery. Don't play with a rooted handset if it is not having recovery. Otherwise you will end up in a boot loop and its really hard to get phone back in working condition(in case something goes wrong).
Be very carefull while installing recovery. Crosscheck twice before you push anything to handset.

Yup... its been tested and proven that you can root 2.2.1 using Gingerbreak (dont u guys read the news??? ), though i havent done it myself... rooted mine long time back before Gingerbreak came

can you install CM or amon recovery and and custom rom on P350?
Hey guys,
I know, there are several tutorials who explain, how to root a HTC Legend HBOOT 1.01.
I created a goldcard successfully, but now, the tutorial I want to use, this one, tells me in its second step, I should already have a rooted phone, but I'm using the tutorial to root this phone ?!
How should I already have a rooted phone in a tutorial which tells me how to root it?
Btw, next step of the tutorial is, to downgrade the legend to 1.31.
Can I use this tutorial too? [HOWTO] DOWNGRADE to 1.31 which you can then root for Legend 2.1
Please, can someone bring me back on the right way, I am confused and read too much different tutorials, don't know which one to follow now.
My target is a working CM7 with CWR on my mates legend.
Nobody can help me? Plz, just a link might help...
Quick intro
Hi
you need a Legend with version 2.1 of Android if you want to root your phone - and part of the 2.1 software suite includes RUU ver.1.31 which is the last version allowing us to upload to our own devices.
1. First you make a goldcard making it possible to downgrade your otherwise locked firmware in your phone as your goldcard unlocks Android 2.2 on your Legend.
2. Then you install Android 2.1 which includes RUU 1.31 making it possible to upgrade/update/exchange the ROM as you please as it is locked in later versions after version 1.31.
3. You find a good ROM on and follow one of the many guides on this page TO THE LETTER - ROM on sdcard and so on
4. Flash, Enjoy and press Thanks to the people who gave you the ROM

thanks to uart1234 for posting this thread,
it's way to solve my question!
i'll try it in the nearly days
Hi there! Just now I bought a new HTC Flyer 16GB wifi only, I just want to root it and s-off, im very sorry to all who will be reading it but I just want to know what is the latest HBOOT and Recovery for HTC Flyer WIFI. i just already updated it over the air into Honeycomb 3.2 and I feel my device is so laggy.I've got confused in some of the instruction there in the thread and i'm asking your kind heart if you can help me to know and to got the correct version / links so I can root it rightly. Is there no possibility for me to brick it? and if I brick it, it's easy to unbrick it or not? Thank you very much for your kind help and I really apppreciate all the help that you can share. Thank you very much and sorry for my awful question
Your goal is back to gb?
if ever i root my device? is it possible also to install custom rom with Ginger bread version even though im in Honeycomb official version?
Not without downgrading your hboot
Flyer
so it means i can only install Honeycomb custom ROM unless i will downgrade my hboot, if ever i downgrade my hboot, both HC and GB I can install?
by the way thanks for the info.
Just check out kevinrocksman multi toolkit
I would rather use telepathy but I'm stuck in a Dark Age.
thanks for the info i'll try to google it,and one more thing, can anyone tell me what is the latest hboot for honeycomb? sorry just a noob for this kind
He has Flyer not View.
To run HC u need HC hboot. To run GB u need GB hboot. So whenever u want to migrate from one to another u not onlly need to change rom but Hboot as well.
To perma root it u have 2 choices Soff method via revolutionary or HTC unlock.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1307759 To get Soff and root on GB from your curent HC.
Thank you so much for the guide, I will follow what you instructed, One more question, if ever there's a tendency to brick it, is it easy also to unbrick the device? Actually this is the first time i will root a device, my evo3d was rooted by my friend and he is out there to help me. Thanks again for your kind help
I seen people being stuck at diferent steps/results and i belive most were resolved by experienced ppl on this forum (points at globathron for example)
Sorry my bad I've been stuck w no hboot on the View all day lost focus.
I would rather use telepathy but I'm stuck in a Dark Age.
Hey, its been more than a month since this device was released in the market and it hasn't been rooted yet. I request some developers out here to please take a look into the device and help us getting it to root.
Thank you.
