[GUIDE] How to PermaRoot your Desire HD

---

I have just complied this Step-by-Step guide on how to root your Desire HD.

I by no means created the root, I simply used my own and others knowledge to put this guide together to help everyone.

Hopefully this is more of a beginners guide so we can ease new Android users into a bit of coding rather than relying on Apps to do the work

There was a lot of people asking how to do it since they couldn't figure it out from adwinp's post and any advice was getting lost in the thread.

I just put my own work into a new thread so it was easy for people to find

And this method avoids terminal or adb so is a bit more beginner friendly I was going to wait for the visionary update tomorrow but now thanks to evostance's guide I have permaroot on the day it was found/exploited/invented.

Yes and No.

I don't know if VISIONary will just be able to root one Kernel Version, or if it will be able to modify the wpx.ko file depending on your Kernel Version.

awesome recap of how to permaroot!
Made a mirror of it here http://www.logarie.nl/android/Desire_HD_Root.zip

UNROOT ?

Excellent guide

Before I permanently root my DHD I want to know who would I UNROOT if needed (just in case if I want to send it off for repair)?
