Do I have to touch a button on the screen? I cannot see my hboot or recovery so if kindly provide when and where this button is. Thank ya

there is no one click root anywhere for htc phones.. that was developed for motoroal and other model android phones.. to root htc you have to flash root from recovery.. for samsung some you can use the superoneclick or you can use odin (cuz superone click is built for fast automating odin)

question is your bootloader unlocked? because i just saw this video here on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L30M6j8Kt-8 that talks about this script... i'm not sure if you have the right one you might want to check with video.. just saw that, that script was from xboarder56 and i googled and found other instructions here http://theunlockr.com/2012/05/01/how-to-root-htc-amaze-4g/ but idk.. the normal way has always been the only way that has worked for me, but your welcomed to try

I finally got the nerve to try and root my 3D today and all for nothing, with the latest update on the phone you cannot root with the current HBOOT 1.5 until a update is devoloped so how long will it be before we get an update for this?
I am very anxious to root so is there an update coming soon??? PLEASE!!!!!
Sorry guys, As I was writing this post it was aready being answered, well sort of..... I still would like to find out how long it will be before an update will be out.....
you can have root with hboot 1.5. Unlock using HTC's method and install CWM. From there you can install any rom with root access.
Sitting back and watching this one... btw this should be in general or q&a.

Why would you want a semi...cwm is a hit or miss. Plus only previous s-off phones it works on. The unlock is just the.bootloader

ok, i've successfully completed the htc unlock method. trying to install CWM, do you mean rom manager? that doesnt allow me to flash a recovery, comes up with some error.
i'm coming from samsung forums, so this(htc) is all new to me. can you point me in the right direction?
i'm just trying to figure out what you mean by "install cwm".

No, they didn't - they released something they call unlocked, but it can't be easily or reliably rooted. They are playing word games with us.
It's not easy but it can be done if pPl know what they are doing. And id they follow instruction. Mind you I did it without a guide on a Mac.

The hboot is unlocked and you can install clockwork mod recovery how is what HTC did not easily rooted?

Because nobody around here actually reads the forum.
Since the first few had problems loading recovery now everyone thinks it can't be done.

Ok soo ive been an android user since the htc dream i just got the my touch 4G from tmob and I hate the stock apps and I would love to have a better simple yet slick rom
So I did some research on google and I found a app thats suppost give you permanent root and turn off s
Its called "Visionary plus"
I wanna know if it works and if I still have todo adb commands via pc or just terminal app
Any feed back is welcome
Thanks in advance
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
It works as you need VISIONary+ to obtain TempROOT. So after that by running WPX script the WP is disabled for emmc. So you can push eng_hboot and turn S=OFF to gain PermROOT.
Make sure your on Stock2.2.1Sense as GB2.3.4Sense has issues as you can't use rage exploit any more, so look in to Gingerleak.

Someone's already asked and someone's already answered.
BUT if you can't find an answer. Msg me I'd more than happy to help.
Its easy. Just read the instructions and take you time. Lots of pros with a rooted phone....titanium backup, faster, newer roms, etc.....better battery life is one thing. I use faux's AOSP 1.2.8 and its silky smooth.

That depends on person to person. I myself can't use a device without radio security disabled. As S=off does have its advantages but even in awake of all the BS that I discovered regarding our Glacier after spending close to 1K on it I would still root it. As I did few times and ill do it again as no risk no game.

A lot of people have good luck with the AIO method. I personally don't like it though. I prefer the photon-torpedo method. But that's just my preference.
I used AIO One Click Root myself, and it always works, that is true, you cannot go wrong with it as long as you follow the few directions.

Sent from my HERO200 using xda premium
Doing a System Motorola Software Update, then Rooting. If you have the device, I personally recommend System Update, Install Proper Drivers To Your PC, and Using the AIO One Click Root Method. It is arguably the easiest.
I can't make it work

If you don't have 4G in your area, then you gotta unlock the BL and flash one of Joker's ROM's and Kernel's, makes the phone ridiculously fast. Plus it still serves its main purpose, being a phone. To me, that's full of win. Plus I'm in Diego with no 4G.

Anytime, that is what we are here for.
I'm the proud owner of a Galaxy Note i717 but the limitations of gingerbread are driving me crazy....so the first thing I want to do is root and flash a different ROM problem is I'm without a computer ugh.
I came across a YouTube video showing how to root the other model without using a computer so I was wondering if anyone knew of a solution for the i717 model.
So is it possible to root the i717 galaxy note without a computer?
Help me out here guys any feedback is much appreciated....

do you have CWM on your device? like ranger stated below...no need to root to flash...

Honestly I would not attempt to flash without a pc handy...due to the saying
"ya never know"
Even though we have the same make/model devices....they are not the same... my GNote may not like a ROM as to yours might...like I trying explaining ... the computer being your safety net if something goes wrong....I would wait or find a friend that you can use a computer, but it is your call, it is your investment.
btw unless someone knows a way to put CWM on the device without a computer....I believe you will need a computer...
Since CWM is a custom kernel, you could flash it from the phone using the Mobile Odin app.
Edit: oops never mind -- you need to be rooted to use Mobile Odin. Sorry for the bad information.
I rooted one phone using the terminal emulator after downloading such and busy box to the SD card. But its harder than climbing Everest without oxygen typing those commands.

So I Bought a Galaxy note (i717) the charger port is messed up on the device. It will charge, but it wont allow any PC connectivity. I have searched google and xda for information how how to root this phone with out a PC (aka using an .apk like framaroot) and I can not find a viable solution. I have tried Z4Root and Framaroot and neither of them work. Do you know of any other ways to root my device with out a pc? If i dont need a Root to Flash Could you point me in the right direction to find that information I haven't put CWM on the device yet because I Cant Root so I cant MobileOdin ect.. you see the picture lol. Is it possible to use an Update.zip file? or use a formatted SDcard to flash it like I did to Flash NookColor1?
