I've seen the Zerg root for the 4G, but after reading some comments about it there's been speculation that the 1.45.1500.2 is Zerg root proof. It there a way to root the Amaze with 1.45.1500.2 software?
On another note... I'm not able to tether with my phone? i'm able to make a hot spot and all yet, I cannot connect any devices to it. The devices seem to not be able to acquire the IP address.
All tips and suggestions are helpful, so please comment as I'm sure you'll be able to help me with my issues one way or another.
Have you unlocked your bootloader?
Sent from my HTC Amaze 4G using xda premium
*edit
What's the complete process in rooting the device with the 1.45.1500.2 software? I'm going to bootload it as soon as it's fully charged.
To unlock your bootloader:
Go to http://htcdev.com/register/ and register an account with them.
Then select "Begin Unlock bootloader"
Follow the steps. It is easy. Just back up your info because when you unlock it, it will require a hard reset.
To do install ClockWorkMod Recovery (CWM), go to this link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1316855
Follow the instructions that says "Installation from fastboot (hboot only ||Hard Method||):" (It's actually very easy and it worked on the new ROM update)
Download the ClockworkMOD 5.0.2.7 Amaze 4g and not the ClockworkMOD 5.0.2.0 Amaze 4g.
To root, you can install a prerooted Custom ROM or you can download SuperUser (SU) from here
http://www.multiupload.com/TI14RLNE8A
Just boot into CWM and flash the su-2.3.6.3-ef-signed.zip if you want to root it with your stock ROM.
To get WiFi Tethering working, you need root (duh).
Download WiFi Tether for Root Users 3.1-beta9
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/detail?name=wifi_tether_v3_1-beta9.apk
After you install it, press the menu button. Select "Settings". Change the Device Profile to HTC Amaze / HTC Ruby. You are good to go!
Much appreciated, will try this tonight and will get back to you
Alright, so I've tried the Bootloader process and I've received an error:
We're sorry, but it appears your attempt to unlock the bootloader on this device has failed. This could be caused by several factors including simple errors in the entry of the unlock token, problems with your device, or a lack of manufacturer support for the unlocking process. Please see the specific error code listed below, and try again if necessary.
Error Code: .
Error Reason: .
That's after I went through the steps and had to paste the coding from the cmd onto the site. What's the problem?
HTC Bootloader unlock
I just read another post that said the HTC bootloader unlock page is broken today. I was trying to unlock my new t-mobile US amaze today and have the same errors as you.

Zerg not working on my unlocked Amaze
I have unlocked my bootloader and am running 1.43.531.3. I get pretty much the same set of errors every time I run the bat file. I have tried factory resetting it 3 times and trying again, but it always does the same thing. Occasionally it'll also say rm failed: no such file or directory on the adb shell rm /data/local/tmp/*sh command. USB debugging is on.

Have you installed CWM?
Still getting the same errors as before. :/
edit* is there any report as to when the HTCdev page will be fixed?
I tried is an hour ago. The HTCDev site is working. I got my friend's unlock key.
its not the HTCdev site, its the way you copied the key over to the box. absolutely no spaces are allowed.
but im gettin the same error for zerg. this is crap, i basically blanked my phone just to unlock it and restore everything.
is this a software version problem?

Assuming you are trying to root, you might try this approach. Worked for me. After the wifi update I had to reset to factory and remove CWM to get the update to install. After the update I did this again and all went well except I got an error during the root process using the file I downloaded from that thread. Thought maybe I was out of luck, but after rebooting the phone it was rooted. Been working fine for the past several days.

You have your adb and crackin.bat in the folder " /android-sdk/platform-tools"
And it looks like the other files (line 3 - 5) are in another folder.
Assuming you followed the instructions exactly, you probably extracted those files into "/android-sdk/tools"?
If so, just copy all files from "/android-sdk/platform-tools" to "/android-sdk/tools" and it should work.
Also, do i need to root HBOOT first?

type the following commands from the folder where you have adb;
Code:
adb shell

accept the notification on your phone if one comes up
and then in the command line type this;
Code:

You can now continue the guide in your first post from the point where you have to insert your gold card into your phone.

Which errors?
The errors you posted in your first post were from running crackin.bat.
That is not necessary after running the steps I posted.
You can skip to the part where you insert your goldcard into your phone and then run the 1.31 RUU.
I get stuck at step 6 http://theunlockr.com/2010/06/07/how-to-load-a-custom-rom-on-the-htc-legend/
No menus load.
So if I understand correctly, you have now already succesfully downgraded (Link as in your first post) and rooted (Link)your phone? Since the link you gave in your last post is for flashing a custom rom, which is the last step in the process.
Oops, no, not downgraded yet - I lost my patience, I will try properly again.

You need this version of HTC Sync, so if you have a newer version, uninstall that version first.
Once installed, run the RUU again (you might need to run it as admin).

Yes I have that specific version.

Just to be sure, you still have your phone connected in charge only state right?
If so, are you sure you didn't get any error in the earlier steps?
I downgraded using the exact same method and didn't get this error (recognized all of the others), so I'm not sure what might cause this otherwise.

What turned out to be the problem with the second step?

i have the htc drivers aswell on fastboot says unlocked but s-on????
i had tried to do this method with pc and mac. and no luck
what am i doing wrong. please help. i have 3 days trying to root my phone
Do you have USB Debugging checked?
It should say S-On. there is not way to get S-off right now.
when you put the PH85IMG on your sd card and when to hboot did it ask you to update?
did you volume up and hit update?
If it worked then go to Hboot screen and volume down to recovery. Should bring up clockworkmod and you can flash a rom.
thanks for the quick respond. and yes i have Debugging checked on.
i didnt know we couldnt have s-off yet but im trying to root this device just like it says on the thread. and cant seem to have luck

It's because the hboot needs to verify the current file. For example in this new file that you just downloaded it has:
modelid: PH8511000
cidnum: T-MOB010
mainver: 1.43.531.3
hbootpreupdate:0
DelCache:1
The previous version that you tried earlier:
modelid: PH8511000
cidnum: T-MOB010
mainver: 1.36.531.5
hbootpreupdate:0
DelCache:1
See the difference? So all I did was modified the 1.36.531.5 with 1.43.531.3 and replaced the android-info.txt file in the zip file and it worked.
I'm not sure why HTC does this or even if there is a way around it but so far we have three versions for the US PH85IMG.zip files.
1.43.531.3 (newest)
1.36.531.6 (kinda new)
1.36.531.5 (shipped)
Other carriers such as Wind may have a different version so it's kinda difficult to make a universal PH85IMG.zip file. I'm curious if we could just use something as simple as:
modelid: PH8511000
cidnum: T-MOB010
hbootpreupdate:0
DelCache:1
or
modelid: PH8511000
cidnum: T-MOB010
mainver: *
hbootpreupdate:0
DelCache:1
Anyone is welcome to try if you like.

Were you able to do this using your Mac or did you have to use your PC? I am tempted to root, but I have Mac and haven't even been able to temp root successfully so I'm hesitant to unlock bootloader.

You really don't even need a computer. Just place the PH85IMG.zip (with the recovery inside) on the root of your external sdcard once you have an unlocked bootloader then flash it from hboot. Voila! Root!
while i was visiting my uncle i took their computer to unlock the bootloader.
so in another words. i got the new update on the phone that one the includes wifi calling. thats why the old file didnt work and says older version fail.
so now thanks to you i am fool rooted and i have recovery. when s-off comes available is it something i would need?
on my sensation i have to wait for s-off to have perm root

we already have perm root with the unlock bootloader. we're able to do everything s-off allows us to do but to update radio hboot bootloader

Sorry for being such a noob. I've followed every instruction to the "T".
I've unlocked the bootloader from HTC with no problems. Then I ran OneClickRoot_1.1... it stated I had achieved Perm root. But no su binary is found. I tried to manually install Superuser from the market as well as busybox. I can't figure it out. I've researched these forums for hours. I also made sure phone was in "Charge only", usb debugging was enabled, and HTC Sync was closed.
Does this have anything to do with me accepting the OTA on Thursday, before I tried to root. Please help. I'll include the script from the OneClick.

I assume this is this the one click root NilsP posted? That one worked great for me. Make sure USB debugging is enabled and you have checked the box under applications to enable use of non-market apps.
If you continue to have issues, flash the AmonRa recovery via fastboot and under Developer Options you can choose to install superuser while in recovery.
You will have to flash Amon Ra recovery through fastboot. There is info about that in development thread. Read through first few pages of Amon Ra thread. Once you have recovery, boot it up from hboot, and then install su and superuser from development section in Amon Ra recovery. The only confusing part for me was preparing to flash Amon Ra thru Windows command prompt due to my inexperience. PM me for further assistance. Good luck. One click does not work for the OTA.
Thanks guys...wish me luck

You should be able to put Amon Ra inside the same folder you just used for unlocking. Then use command:
Fastboot flash recovery (nameofrecoveryfilehere)
You will need to add .IMG to the file name for it to work.

Sorry for being such a noob. I've followed every instruction to the "T".
I've unlocked the bootloader from HTC with no problems. Then I ran OneClickRoot_1.1... it stated I had achieved Perm root. But no su binary is found. I tried to manually install Superuser from the market as well as busybox. I can't figure it out. I've researched these forums for hours. I also made sure phone was in "Charge only", usb debugging was enabled, and HTC Sync was closed.
Does this have anything to do with me accepting the OTA on Thursday, before I tried to root. Please help. I'll include the script from the OneClick.

if you can't root using oneclickroot,
flash AmonRA recovery using cleanflash
then install su and superuser under Developer menu under AmonRA recovery.

Hello, I am having the same issue. I use Clean Flash 1.0, and the image file from Amonra PH98IMG.zip. Everything says that it worked. I load SU through Recovery. No icon appears under Apps for superuser so I go to the market and load SuperUser. The first time I run Root Explorer the SuperUser image appears allowing me to grant approval. When I go into Terminal Emulator and type SU I am granted access. So I restart my phone and go back to Terminal Emulator, when I type SU I get Access Denied. The one thing that is stated here and in another thread is the part about "Fastboot flash recovery (recovery.img)". What is this and were is it done? Do you type it just as shown minus the quotes? Is that what I am missing and causing a permanent root to act like a temporary root.
Thank you for your help.

Developer menu if your trying to achieve root. Then there is an option to install su and superuser. Select that then after that is done immediately reboot. You may or may not still have to download the superuser off the market and update it. I didn't but alot of people reported having to do so.
I'm ROOTED!!!! Thank you everyone for your time and patience!!!
qudwis, thank you for responding. That Post is what I followed, but I do not see any way once in Fastboot were I can type "fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img". I restart my phone and I get to the screen were HBOOT and Fastboot are located. But there is no command line to type into. That is were I need the step by step to help me.
Thank you for your help.

I urge you to read a little more carfeully and don't just skim over things while your following the guide!!! it specifically states what those files are and the one you're using reverts you back to stock recovery. You're trying to put a custom recovery on, not the original one that came with the factory and is already on your phone at this point...you trying to replace stock recovery with stock recovery!!!
I know you're new so It understandable but next time you should post all this stuff in the appropriate thread!!! the [How to] guide to rooting...you'll get more responses this way and people will not get pissed off, especially the moderators

As best as I can tell, the script fails to mount partition as writable, I imagine it's because it was intended for a previous version of hboot? though i'm not sure how similar the 3D and 4G are in terms of partitions to begin with... bottom line the method flashallthetime suggested should work just fine, but if you want S-OFF you would need to figure out what hboot u have, downgrade if necessary and then use revolutionary method to get S-OFF
