r47z - xiialive is sweet, just what i was looking for, thx for the tip. Also been eyeing the Switchpro widget... looks neat. Just waiting for a rock solid Froyo build before i root... or hoping we'll get paid apps soon

Just got my phone rooted, didn't use Gold Card. I used Unrevoked one-click root, then flashed the Desire Froyo "Official" ROM.

I had trouble getting Unrevoked to work - forgot to run reflash.exe as administrator and check "enable USB debugging" - apart from that, it was smooth rooting and flashing.

Number 1 reason for me to root? I wanted to access Paid apps, and actually PAY FOR THEM.

Number 1 reason to move to Froyo? A2SD

Haven't encountered any bugs on this ROM, will post if i find any.

Haven't used Spirit Jailbreak, but once you've done Unrevoked you can install custom ROMs.

Not really one button. You have to install USB drivers in comp, uninstall HTC Sync, then the rest is done by the program. Flashing ROM is via the hp itself. I believe the procedure to flash custom ROMs is standard, read it up.

Mine is from Maxis

Have the same problem here, whether using stock sms program or Handcent. If anybody finds a fix, pls let us know. I've search many websites for a solution and have found nothing!

The ROM i flashed is a rooted "official" Desire Froyo ROM. So it's rooted, that's how i got Market Enabler and paid apps. Head on to XDA for the details. Ppl say this is the most stable, bug-free froyo-sense ROM so far, since the original froyo ROM was from HTC themselves.

These questions have been asked countless times. Pls use the search button.

But i agree that it should be added into the FAQ section.

TS - Will you be able to update the FAQ with a link to rooting? Maybe http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696189 (XDA)? Thx!

Mike - No need to be sorry. We're all thankful for your work!

I'm on the rooted official ROM. Based on feedback on XDA, a lot of the problems are from users who did not do a full wipe, so i suggest doing a full wipe to be safe.

Separately, i've used Market Access to get paid apps but It messed up my APN settings (no mobile data), and couldn't browse paid apps.
- Needed to re-enter the APN settings, then select "Mobile Network Settings -> Network operators -> select automatically" before it could detect 3G/HSDPA data network.
- fix browse paid apps issue by following instructions from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...17&postcount=51.

Bro - Does your Market Access automatically emulate correctly everytime you reboot? Mine doesn't even if i enable "emulate on boot".


I've used Unrevoked on Windows 7 32-bit. Yes, uninstall HTC Sync, but don't uninstall the driver.

There's a poll on XDA on which ROM ppl "think"is the best. check it out : http://forum.xda-developers.com/poll.php?d...lts&pollid=2933

Official Froyo Sense leads, followed closely by LeeDroid.
