it's the only one until now for HTC explorer so has some limitations: only english and chinese languaje, has a few preinstalled apps in chinese, and no android market, install it yourself and don't forget to do a complete reboot of phone (untick fast reboot option) to prevent market from crashing when trying to download any app.
Note that you are free to modify preinstaled apps adding and deleting files inside the .zip (system/app/) and will be installed in the "rom memory" not internal one
be carefull not to delete important system apps but there are many widgets and stuff not needed
and yes, we need a BOX for HTC explorer!!

hi, im italian user, i was watching the post to understand how to root my explorer, but i'm not so good with english and this is very complicated for me, some words are different and i don understand so i dont want to be wrong, something like need box htc, i'm not sure, and in italy is revealed that with this method they banned your phone from warranty, can someone help me or is there another way to root this phone? im in your hand, all italy is seeking for this root...here is the best and the only way to do...
@ivanmemento 'needs a new box' probably means a new subforum needs to be created for htc explorer. im not sure tho.
i dont thik there is a way you could root without voiding your warranty.thats one of the usual disadvantages of rooting.
thanks to the explanation, i know about the warranty all my phones are h.ak..ed and rom substitution, and i know about something that can happens if there is a problem but in these chase i mean that if you give them the serial, is different because they can find your phone in their database/black list, and so this is the fact, in other chase like gingerbreak for example, they have nothing in hand to find that you have done something on the phone, it's like if they don't know and if you sent in warranty almost like the factory setting you have more probability to solve evantually problems, but it's ok, my real problem is that i don't want to made errors for the process of rooting, because im not so good both in english and both in codes thanks for your response...
hope to find a solution my phone is also brandized so have many software inside that do itself upgrade upload and other stuff that is expensive...
