Hey there, I'm a noob lol. I have a htc desire s hboot 2.00 and I managed to get root access using htcdev. Then I rooted my phone using one root click. Now I'm stuck. I can't get a new recovery working on this phone. I tried using Rom manager and 4ext. Even installed recovery.img in root of sd and with hboot. I only get this damn triangle . Can anyone please explain how I can get a custom recovery on my HTC desire s.... Thanks in advance

If it is anything like the method for my HTC legend and unlocked boot loader, you must flash the custom recovery image from fastboot, you can't use the fake flash method with update.Zip. I don't know directly about the desire s, so you will have to look through the forums fot the desire s
As a tip, I used I think its called fast boot commander to flash the clockwork mod custom recovery image file.

Almost the same instructions for the Aria. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881634, and for your bootloader, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133446.

1) At the HBOOT screen (volume down + power), what exactly does it say on the very top three lines?
2) When you go to recovery, what do you see? Does Clockworkmod load?
Thanks for answering,

You should use the method described here to flash Clockworkmod onto the device: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14693680
However the version they provide on that post is outdated. You should instead download and use this Clockworkmod image file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1279257 (extract the img file from the zip file first)
Once Clockworkmod is on the device you can install the ROM of your choice.
ok so, I'm having problems loading the Newt One S rom because like a dumb ass I used my flash image GUI to flash ICS cleanrom and I wasn't supposed to because I'm HBOOT 1.5 S on not S off so I'm trying to flash One S and it's like trying to boot up but it stays stuck on htc One splash screen. I think I just need a kernel so, I can get this working again. please help thanks in advance. I wanted to do the downgrade from 1.5 to 1.4 but I'm new to this and don't want to a chance and really screw things up. I'm pretty sure a kernel would fix my issue imo. your advice is appreciated.
Well for starters the gui app is designed for s on devices because if your s on you can flash kernels from recovery so your first step was to pay a visit to HTC dev and unlock your boatloader first and then you will need to install a custom recovery and then the Su file's this will give you root check the dev section pertaining to your device and read up or you will most definitely brick

Hello everyone
I hope someone can help me; I've been reading some topics on here about rooting but confused whether my phone can be rooted or not as I can't still post in the development area.
I have an HTC one x+ uk sim free and would like to root it, does anyone know any good tutorial that will help me with this?
All I did at the moment is backup using the adb command line, is the backup used through that command line a full backup? I'm asking this because if something goes wrong, will that backup me fully restore the device or i need a different type of backup?
Thank you
my phone is sim freem using hasoon's toolkit,which option should I use - I believe is TWRP but confused after reading the posts

Here is a tutorial that works with HOX+ Internation version and will root your phone easily. You just need to find a ROM to flash after you followed the steps in the tutorial. Hasoon2000 even made a video to show you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604439
I'm aware of the video and tutoral but was confused about the option twrp etc.
I used rootboot to root it and checked with root checker,it says is rooted
How do I make full image backup,if I'm not wrong the term is called creating a rom
When I used rom manager it doesn't let me do it,it says I need clockworkmod recovery and that there's no official version for my model. What can I do now to make a rom of my phone with everything
Thanks

If I'm not misunderstood you rooted your phone but didn't flash a recovery? What ROM are you using?

I believe what you said is what I did
I rooted the phone using rootbot the phone was rooted after the process as I downloaded root checker and it displayed that my phone is rooted.
How exactly would I install the clockwork recovery?
I remember using the toolkit provided in the link you gave me but after the reboot the phone shows a read triangle with an exclamation mark.
Go to this link and just install recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34173694

Thank you, my mistake was that I didn't flash recovery, sorry still not familiar with the terminology which is why many things sounds misleading to me.
After flashing with twrp recovery I did try the backup again and it worked, now I got the backup and I think that's all I need so far.
I'm good to go with installing full rom
does anyone know good roms for htc one x+ ?
Elegancia & InsertCoin & Maximus in development
I'm thinking of using the following rom
Android Revolution HD for HTC One X+
There's a topic about this rom but I didn't find any download link; can someone tell me where I can get all the roms and their links.
Also, now that I have a backup, if I install the rom and something goes wrong, by restoring the currenct image file that i've created using rom manager, will I get everything back, included settings, apps etc. right?

Go to Cyanogen Mod official website ... You can get a whole lot information there... !!! its is the only rom which is providing jellybean 4.1.2 on AMAZE 4g
Please read the "pinned" threads located at the top of the various forums. All of the info you seek is located there. The brief reader's digest version is as follows: You need to download and have a working adb setup. You also need some drivers from the HTC website. While there you need to register as a developer and follow the instructions. If followed correctly they'll give you a binary blob that you need to push to your phone from windows to unlock your bootloader. You'll still be s-on but unlocked. Then depending on which version of the amaze you have and which version of android is currently running on it there are different procedures for attaining s-off, which is a requirement if using a non-T-Mobile US device. After you've gotten those things in order you can begin flashing.
None of this is difficult, but it does require reading on your part, and nobody here is going to hold your hand, especially if they see you haven't made any effort by at least reading the instruction threads.
Just flash the SuperSU.zip file via recovery. For some customs roms, you won't need to root your phone before flashing, your phone will automatically get root access one you flash them. All you will need is having a custom recovery .

Actually you're not quite on point. Without unlocking your bootloader you can't flash a recovery and smartflash on 4ext doesn't work properly without a working busybox and superuser. So after unlocking and flashing or pushing a superuser apk you need to also install busybox too or smartflash can't write to the protected partitions.
I think everyone knows they cannot flash a custom recovery without unlocking the bootloader first.

LOL you'd be surprised what kind of questions get asked here and how often the same ones are repeated, especially in this forum where newbies can post until eligible for the other forums. Look and see how many threads and individual posts are here, the vast majority are the same basic questions asked over and over by those who've never bothered to read the information posts pinned to top of each forum.
You are right.

Hi,
I installed Custom ROM with an idea that it will improve my phone performance but hell i am seeing sluggish performance in some of the basic phone functionalites like contact searching
I didnt back up my stock rom when i rooted the phone and hence i request you to please share me the WORKING link of HTC Legend Stock ROM (Doesnt matter what android version it has 2.1 or 2.2)
I am fine with it
Thank you in advance
If you want rooted stock then I suggest looking in the dev section there are lots of roms, try using blay0s froyo b0.8.4 it's basically stock with quite a few improvements.
If you want completely stock Rom and no more root goto
http://www.shipped-roms.com and download the correct region for your location they are windows exe files, all you need is USB drivers I believe, from memory HTC sync is all you need.

An important question, how did you root your phone, via htcdev boot unlock or other method?
If htcdev unlock, you will need to relock it or you will get error 155.
