the only thread i've found for the amaze was locked, and has no links to the toolkit, is that the only way to unlock / root the amaze ?
thanks !

Not really it just make things a lil easier.. You can unlock your bootloader through htc dev then flash recovery through a zip with ph85img way or by the 4ext app and to get root access just flash the superuser app through 4ext

so for some reason I am unable to get su to work on htc (went official unlock), was able to get CWM installed but can't get su privileges? Wondering if there is a way to do it since for some reason it's not letting me flash it.
--- it randomly worked on my 5th try....
Htc only unlocks gives you security off you still have to root... go into the dev section and their is a guide in their !!
It doesn't give you s-off it unlocks the bootloader and gives you access. I am very surprised he got the recovery installed he would be the first.
Will the unlocked bootloader allow you to downgrade back to 1.40?

I relocked my phone and now im trying to re root . the htc dev site won't let me get to the bootloader section. Is there a way around using the site to get rooted or s off
Pretty sure no is the answer.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
By any chance do you still have the bin file from when you unlocked before? If so just skip all of that with dev site and just continue with unlock using all the adb commands. Or you could trust one of the other one click root tools.

The bin file should be somewhere in your emails if you haven't deleted it.

I know i'm late but juts got this old htc amaze from my dad and wanted to experiment with it but no downoad links are provided for the rooting tool and i cant seem to find it anywhere...am i so late that this is taken off the internet as obselete?
I followed Step 3 on these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426377 and managed to get root after running Clockworkmod on the SuperSU.zip file that was dropped in from the RecoveryInstallerForNoobs.zip file.
For rooting help contact @ravike14

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.

HTC Amaze Hasoon2000 S-off All-in-one Toolkit
I want to s-off my htc amaze mobile set. can anybody give link to download HTC Amaze Hasoon2000 S-off All-in-one Toolkit 1.1 from the website? will be grateful.
You can't s~off the amaze with a tool kit, you have to use the wire trick using the joupunut bear program. No other way around it, check YouTube you'll find a video tutorial

S-OFF
OR
ROOT
i'm very confused b/w s-off and rooting so i will be glad to know the answer<THANKYOU
You have to unlock your bootloader for s off so in the same process you can root it it won't harm you lol

Yes.. You mite need root permission to start s off process I can't remember that much I did it a lil long ago just flash 4ext and and install supersu and go ahead with s off it won't hurt you all it'll take is extra 5min
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
You don't need s-off to install roms from 4ext recovery tool. You only need s-off for updating radios and such. If you do want to try the wire trick make sure you have contact with metal by scraping away any white dot sticker that on some phones is under the holes.

Depends If you have other brand of amaze such as tmobile wind tellus or something EXCEPT Asian Version, if you have Asian Version which is CID_044 you need s off cuz we don't have ics.
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
Yup..
If you have Asian version of amaze and if you want to update your android version to Ics than you must perform s-off ,
Than flash RUU which is provided by aj and than hboot .
And after that you can flash supersu.zip to gain root access..
And if you don't want update ics and want only simple root with GB stock Rom
1) unlock bootloader
2) perform s-off (to be safe to perform further steps )
3) flash superSU.zip
Hit thanks if I helped you !!!
