How does it look like? PM with me the details?

Downloaded all but well i'm staying with the xda one.
Already ordered my 16GB one...hehe...

done it with win7 x64

btw..why all want to remove teeter eh?
quite fun game wei...
smoother than apple ver

CKHong, i basically read the instruction from XDA and from Maliqu3 site.
Then sort of combined(hybrid) the method a bit.

Think i will compile the method tonight if you want to know

Mine advise is follow only 1 method as these methods are known to be work and proven by a lot of people....
Why want to follow the hybrid method? Dont you think it is more risky?  
At the end you get root phone, why not taking the safe path?
Unless you want to prove the hybrid method is working or better...
Just my 2cent, no offence on you or DecaPix who create the hybrid way......

@CKHong, here's what i done to root my phone.

This guide is based on xda as well as from maliqu3’s blog

Xda site is as below:

First of all, make sure your phone is fully charged.
Having your battery die on you halfway flashing will quite certainly brick it.

Download the stock ROM from XDA at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667
Keep it in safe place label it as Stock ROM or something.

You need 3 files.
1. Unrevoked - http://unrevoked.com/recovery/
You will get reflash_package.exe
2. Android USB driver - http://c40c9a9c.linkbucks.com/
You will get android-usb-driver.zip
3. HTC Sync - http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportDownload.asp...cat=3&dl_id=933
You will get _HTC Legend_HTCSync.exe

Run the reflash package and extract it to a folder. Name it unrevoked or something.

Extract the Android USB driver into another folder. Name it Android USB Driver or something.

Install the HTC Sync on to the PC. The go to Control Panel and uninstall it. But leave the HTC driver installer there. Reboot PC if required.

Turn off your phone, then boot it into the HBOOT menu by holding power and volume down.

Connect the phone to your Windows machine with a USB cable and wait for the phone to say HBOOT USB PLUG on screen

Open Device Manager.
Click Start, then right click on Computer, then click Properties, then click Device Manager.

Under Other devices, you should now see the Android 1.0 device. With a “!” mark

Right click on Android 1.0 and click Update Driver Software.

Click on Browse my computer for driver software.

Click on Browse and select the Android USB Driver folder on your computer, click ok, then click next

You should get a status bar indicating that the driver is installing. If you get any warnings, just click Ok.

Your driver should install.

Click Close and make sure Android Bootloader Interface is listed under Android Phone.

Reboot PC if required. Disconnect the phone and switch it on as normal.

With Desire go to Settings > Connect to PC > Default connection type > Disk drive then Untick ‘Ask Me’
Then go to Settings > Applications > Development > Make sure USB Debugging is ticked.
Then go back to Applications and make sure Unknown Sources is ticked.
Start the reflash.exe in Admin mode (Right Click > Run as Admin (Only required for Windows Vista + 7)
Connect your Desire.
Wait (it should take about 1-2 minutes)
Then, your Desire should be  in recovery mode! Hit reboot.
You should now have 'Superuser Permission' in applications menu (it means your phone is rooted now) and you are done!!

The phone is rooted!

Go to the Android Market and download an app called ‘Titanium Backup‘. Open it and tap the ‘Problems‘ button to install BusyBox.
Then hit Menu Button > Batch > Backup All Apps + System Data Wait for it to finish.
Turn off your phone & turn it back on holding POWER + VOL DOWN then use vol up/down to scroll down to ‘Recovery‘ and power to select.
When you see the recovery screen, use the trackball to scroll to ‘Nandroid‘ and press the trackball to select. Then select ’Backup‘ (You can also use ‘Restore’ to restore)

Boot up the phone as normal. Connect the USB cable.
Find the Nandroid folder with a “backup” folder in it
Copy this to your PC
Find the Titanium Backup folder and copy it to your PC.

All done! Now it’s ready to flash new ROM!

@CKHong, keep all the downloaded files in your PC.
SD card is never really safe
can format it not knowingly!

I'm doing the same thing now - it should take 30-60 minutes to become green and your battery will be good to go

EDIT: Even it goes green before 30 minutes, just leave it charging for a bit longer

Yes, when your device is USB bricked

Rooting is never risk free, but I think the chance of getting USB brick is quite low. If you make sure you follow all the steps in the unrevoked method, it should be fine

In any case, your phone is still under warranty

not yet woh.. it should be arriving today. Will test it out when I get home from work..

Gonna get the BT case tonite. Hopefully fits into the pouch perfectly
Well, that still shouldnt be the cause of the problem. I have emptied my battery a couple of times as well

@iceman31, its its unrooted, then send back to warranty would be your best bet

@CKHong, so have you joined the endless fun of rooting and flashing custom ROM?
