No, it doesnt. Here's the 3.3 changelog:
*Fix for latest EVO 4G OTA (3.70.651.1) and EVO 4Gs with new versions of HBOOT (2.02 and 2.10).
*Switched exploits for all platforms; hopefully more reliable than rageagainstthecage
*Updated ClockworkMod, with plenty of new features:
3.0.0.2 for EVO 4G, which has a new kernel (for better WiMAX safety), and supports WiMAX key backup
2.5.1.2 for Incredible, which supports SLCD
*No update for Wildfire yet; sorry.
An interesting thing, that unrevoked since 3.3 has switched to the new "more reliable" exploit than rageagainstthecage, while they apologize for unexistance of update for wildfire. Is it such a super duper secure phone?
Guys, why dont you get together and set up a bounty to root/s-off the Wildfire. It would certainly get more devs/hackers interested
*hmpf* cant write you a pm.
I am gonna wait some days for unrevoked... if they find a way to remove the hboot lock, everything is fine. if they dont find a way i am gonna buy a xtc clip.
and hh is next to me
but i know... if i buy this xtc clip they will find a way 2 or 3 days later how to unlock the hboot without a clip

hahahaha,
I got my Wildfire S-off by one of the mobile repairing shops in New Delhi for Rs. 500 (approx. $10).
Bori5, you will use xtc clip once and will be useless after setting the Wildfire S-OFF....
so better would be to find any guy in your city with xtc clip and offer him some double cheese pizzas in return.
Dude i'm from delhi, tell me the name of the shop and i'll get this hboot off my back asap!! thanks in advance!
Heh, got my sgs stolen :'( and purchased a wildfire yesterday
saw there was an update available and thought why not
Then I see the root guide and say "Hey this looks easy enough..."
And then with a bit more reading I see this
Wish I had never bought this phone, one click root for sgs was a dream

Ouughhhhh, that must hurt.
And about that, the change from Galaxy S to Wildfire is a big "downgrade" of speed (and everything), right? But it depends on what you need, I still think Wildfire is a great phone, but Galaxy S (a friend has it) is amazing.
Htc locked the wf's hboot not without a reason, since we have no possibility for oc, modding etc they tring to force us to buy they new mid-range wf s and annouce wf s as a best seller.

9I created this topic for all, who didn't hear about it.
Upgrading your Wildfire to the new HBOOT and 2.21 Froyo (over the air) will result in total immunity to the tools like Unrevoked3. This means, that after upgrading you will not be able to root your phone, push clockworkmod, custom roms, and even if it was rooted before, it unroots and you will not be able to restore 2.1 from backup.
Those, who haven't done any upgrades, can flash a safe ROM or any other Froyo ROM on the rooted phone from sticky threads.
But those, who were successfully moved to the official 2.2 Froyo, have 3 solutions:
1. Wait patiently for the Unrevoked update, which will root the upgraded hboot. But right now (04 Jan 2011) Unrevoked team do not have Wildfires for testing, so development for this phone is suspended for some (long) time.
2. Downgrade. It is actually possible for conservative people, who liked 2.1.
Unfortunately, i must warn everybody, that this method will not make your phone rootable again because HBOOT doesn't downgrade.

Yeah that was helpful. So we need to get something like desireHd to be able to root? Of course unrevoked is directed to High-end devices and those are their priority. But if enough many people want it for wildfire they could hack it, we just have to wait longer...1Any news about Unrevoked
No, and No.
I am extremely sure when there is an update, there will be 10 threads proclaiming this.
Till then, look here for updates:
http://twitter.com/unrevoked1czesiu, the main feature you gain from rooting is the ability to install CyanogenMod, where's Just-In-Time compilation was enabled in Dalvik, making all the system run twice smoother/faster together with the latest 2.3 Gingerbread. Also, you can just root the phone to flash a clean 2.2 froyo safely, like an ota update, but it doesn't modify the hboot, allowing you to root the phone later again.
