I have a problem with my htc hd2 ... i want it rooted how can i do this on android 2.2 plss help
Use a later rom, , sounds like you are using the original proof of concept rom, which isn't and cant be rooted. All (most of? probably all) the other roms are already rooted.

I've just bought an HTC Hero (Refurb/3UK) of which arrives on Tuesday, but i am completely new to Android having never used the OS or the Device before i am wondering if anyone can help me out with any important information i need to know about.
Ssecondly, i know HTC won't be releasing Android 2.2 for the Hero due to the Hardware Specifications as 2.1 had to be shrunk in order to be rolled out for this device, is anyone working on getting this onto the Hero?
Already a working version of 2.2 is available but without Sense UI

Hello there,
I recently changed from symbian to android.....Can some help me on how to apply themes in wildfire ...especially this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060333
Theming is very different in Android compared to Symbian. What you see there requires a Custom ROM with a Theme Chooser App inbuilt into it.
So, if you have a Custom ROM (Cyanogenmod 7 or Ginger Yoshi), then just install it, and choose via Theme Chooser.
Obviously, you will need root for it, which will not be possible via software if you are on Android 2.2.1
then if i update to 2.2 can i root?
No. Please read again. If you are 2.2 you can NOT root.
Until down to 2.1, most people stuck wit dis take time to read around, you'll find your
ok mine is 2.1 and am planning root it and use cyanogen mod...after doing this am gonna install the samsung touchwiz by rolle..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709763
will this provided touchwiz file work with wildfire without the need for rooting...?
if so ill updatet to 2.2 officially and install this launcher..plzz guide me
Its under the Nexus One Forum, so its unlikely it will work. There is some user who has developed TouchWiz for the Wildfire, and you can find it at the Wildfire Android Development Forum (Just use Search).
As for root, I don't know whether it will work without root or not, but, I would personally recommend you to not update to official 2.2.1 because you will lose the ability to root (Even if you do not intend to install Custom ROMs - At this point of time), and you will have to stick with the stock functionality, meaning you will not be able to change your mind later about installing root apps and Custom ROMs like Cyanogenmod.
Of course, if you are 101% convinced you will never require root and Custom ROMs, you are welcome to update to official 2.2.1
thanks alot for the advice ...i decided to root and install CM7 rom....can you provide me the link for the touchwiz file for wildfire...ill search for it too...
Good idea in not going for the official 2.2.1 update. It will atleast keep your options open for alternatives, even if CM7 doesn't suit you.
Anyway, here is Touchwiz for Wildfire.

^I'm guessing you tried that. Either you did or you are about as lazy as me ;D
Do it at your own risk. I've soft bricked several phones and hard bricked a Galaxy S, but its worth it to me.
I also see you say you have a "ROM Version". I have yet to install a rom that wasn't rooted.
i think he applied a stock update. in germany the sensation was released with android 2.3.2
@trekdrop: if you are able to read german i have used this howto:
