Hi everyone,
First time poster here. Recently rooted my own HTC Amaze and thought I'd give veegsej some tips on what worked for me, so here we go
Honestly the best and easiest way to root your phone is to use Hasoon2000's HTC Amaze All-In-One Toolkit! Plug your phone into the computer and follow the onscreen instructions when you open the program.
After you've unlocked the bootloader (from the instructions given in the program), install a recovery- I suggest the first one on the list (4EXT). Under *Extras*, run perm root to push supersu.zip onto your phone. After all that, boot your phone into recovery mode and use 4EXT to find and install supersu.zip file. Once you do this, you'll be fully rooted and good to go!
*Extra tip*- in 4EXT I also recommend you turn on the *Smart Flash* option which will enable your phone to install/flash roms and all sorts of goodies in the future. :victory:
Hope this helps!

You're right the forums do have all the information available. I was hoping my post would at least, in a nutshell, summarize everything that had to be done so he/she would know what to do in just a few short paragraphs.
What if there was a section for noob's for every device?
I bet people would still take the time to say "You need to search!" Lol. Not directed at anyone specific, just a joke

look in the "rollup sticky" thread over in the Development forum. Video tutorials and write-ups and links to drivers etc. are all in there.
This should be all you need to root, flash a recovery and install su. Follow the directions exactly and you wont have any issues. Works for me although I use TWRP 2.0.
Should note, Im a cdma user.
ok, thank you very much, I post it here if I have some more questions
Ok, Since three days I have root with cwm on my phone, the next thing would be what rom is good? Want to flash a custom Rom but I like the original sense htc style and just want to overclock and have some more options in the menus...would be nice if someone could tell me

If your just getting the phone now, chances are its gonna have hboot 1.5. So you'd have to use the HTC method.

YA Hboot1.5 your stuck with HTC method use CWM for recovery alot of folks had issues with TWRP 2.0 not flashing right and dirty flashes.
Themes won't flash right along with other things.
Twrp 2.0 works perfectly for me. Only one version of clockwork will stick...so I use twrp, I like the touch based recovery. And I've had no issues making nands or restoring them. This coming from years of using clockwork. Just gotta adapt.

Hello! I ve already wrote that I have the phone and have root on it with cwm...I very already rooted it, so next thing would be a good Rom with overclock functionality

i just got my amaze yesterday, i installed the official ics OTA this morning, and now i want to root it. Does the one click root program work for the Amaze while it is on stock ics or would i have to downgrade?
I'm not sure, Look for hasoons all in one tool in the dev section. Has recoveries root and another one specifically for s off. You will find you will use his tool if you flash constantly
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
Hasoons tool wouldnt work for me when i updated to the WIND ICS OTA, i had to find the sudo package and install it via recovery. it did work for me in gingerbread.. just a heads up..
No one click. Read the stickies... Learn about unlocking bootloaders, 4 ext recovery, flashing superuser in recovery, and supercid. It's all rather simple. PLENTY of threads about it.

That one click does not work. It only works on GB 1.36. The exploit was fixed in 1.43 GB and newer.

I need a life huh? Lol I know I know, I'm working on it, when school starts I won't be as active but I won't disappear either, we were all noobs at some point in time.
I'm about to pick up a replacement phone and I noticed that the RegawMOD root method no longer works.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1690919
What's the best root alternative? If there isn't one, I'll just keep the my current rooted phone. The only thing wrong with it is the accelerometer no longer works. I can live with that if it means that I won't be able to easily root the new phone.

Thanks, guys. I'm so used to being in the ' HTC EVO 4G LTE Original Android Development' forum and never even occurred to me to look in the OTHER Development forum for a root method.

Hello everyone, newbie here. I have worked on a few personal phones, however, trying to get my daughter's phone setup. I have read pages and pages of postings on how to do this, but I am a little confused now.Basically, I would like to have root access with recovery mode, which in the process I assume makes phone unlocked? I would like for her to be able to tether through her phone with either built in hot spot or wifi tether app. Not putting any custom mods, just would like modified stock. Can I please get some suggestions on which method to use and correct procedure so I don't jack up her phone. Thanks for any responses. Does it need to be S-off?
Sprint Evo 4g Lte
Software version 3.16.651.3 710RD
Click the DIY guide link in my sig to get you going
S-OFF is not really needed but recommended
Any other questions PM me
Your best bet is to unlock the bootloader and install a custom recovery on the phone. From there you can actually root the phone either with TWRP recovery or by flashing the superuser binary zip in recovery, which will give you root access. You can then install an app like WiFi tether from the Play store. In addition to BigDaddy's link, check out the link in my sig, also. I explain the difference between bootloader versions, the difference in root & S-off, and have a few different links to help you get your phone rooted, plus some other junk
Feel free to shoot me a PM if you have any questions, or just ask here in the thread.

Thanks for your help, guide was perfect, worked like a charm, actually almost the same as when I did my original Evo 4g. Now for S-off and wifi tether
Thanks again

there are several ways, first is to search, then read how to root, s-off, super cid and then be on ICS, then along with a recovery, you can download the 4.3 on here, ask such questions again and get bashed around

Lol thanks. can I update to 4.4?
We need some more info of your phone's bootloader to see if your phone can update
Write everything you see in bootloader!
Does your amaze has T-Mobile logo or is unbranded?
There's only 3 4.4 ROMs available for Amaze and are in experimental stage namely, Evervolv 4.4, CyanogenMod 11, Pac-ROM 4.4
CyanogenMod and pacrom has only camera and WiFi tethering not working rest are fine.. Pac-ROM 4.4 is the only ROM for Amaze which is updated everyday/weekly with nightly. I'd recommend to stick with stock based ICS ROMs if you want fully functional ROM. Good Luck!

yes you can upgrade to kitkat, there are two custom roms for that, one is CM11 and the other is PAC, both have some things not working and small issues. you can upgrade after you root, super cid and then install a recovery within your phone... there is a very easy to follow tutorial step by step for the phone. you will need to unlock the bootloader via htc dev first to root and then install a recovery... i would point out the thread but i'm driving at the moment... search through google with xda there, you will get there, not hard at all
there's a thanks button on the left, hit it if you think i've helped:laugh:

You forgot that the person needs S-OFF too. Otherwise they'll end up in bootloops
