[q] rooting htc wildfire

---

hey guys, is there a way to root the htc wildfire or buzz, my hboot is 1.01.0002 locked on telstra network in australia. is there a way to root it? i tried unrevoked but it currently doesnt support my boot loader. any help would be appareciated (:
cheers

The only way to do it is through XTC Clip. They are expensive to buy and I too am in Australia but had to sent mine away to the UK. XTC Clip gives you S-OFF and then you can downgrade and use unrevoked. There are plenty of tutorials on the web to enable you to do that. unrevoked 3.3 doesn't work after XTC Clip so you have to find a copy of unrevoked 3.2. This hangs on the step: rebooting into recovery, but by then the phone is rooted so just select the reboot now option and you are all set

Or just wait for AlphaRevX, which should be coming soon.

You also don't need to downgrade with alpharevx

neither do you when using the XTC clip

but indeed, alpharevx should be coming out soon, saves you some cash

thaks mate (: so how long did it take for you to take it to the UK and back? and also has the bootloader been cracked yet? im assumeing that unrevoked would have a newversion somthing along the lines of 3.3 or somthing to use the new HBOOT 1.001 but thanks for the infomation anyway man (: much appreciated

i think ill just stick to waiting for alpharevx to come out or a new unrevoked (: thanks for all the help people (:
