spunkberry: tats just a standard "procedure" to save their(devs) own arse, so they're not responsible if your mistake starts a thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.

Just follow the instructions and u should be fine.

For G2, i think there's a "One-Click" root rite?

the walkthroughs I've been looking at aren't written by HTC developers though .. but they involve stuff like downloading certain files and whatnot ..

HTC developers? ROFL.... it's HACKS, CUSTOM FIRMWARE, sure not write by the official HTC people lar. XD

and to make sure u read on the right place. Check out the infamous www.xda-developers.com 's forum.

could you read my sentence again? I said the ones I've been reading AREN'T written by HTC developers

at least your phone has the option to flash to htc sense =D
just wait until root becomes stable and more idiot-proof. wont be too long

wow wow... dun feel insulted lar. Go back and read my reply again. Did I mention anything like "u're wrong"? lol...

what i'm trying to say is,

OF COURSE 'hacks' and 'root' instructions are not written by HTC official developers lar. XD

well, I read that first sentence as you misunderstanding that I thought the stuff I was reading was written by HTC developers. Of course not! anyway, I think I'm gonna wait until there are a lot less "you're gonna brick your phone" warnings, HTC dev or not

There is (latest version of VISIONary, which also perma-roots as well as temp-roots), but some people had been having problems with it when I was reading up on the root process two weeks ago. XDA Developers' G2 wiki recommends the use of the manual method.

@spunkberry: Don't worry about the brick warnings. Just follow the instructions carefully and you'll be fine.

I'd suggest only rooting and flashing custom ROMs if you're dissatisfied with your current stock ROM.

or when u hand itchy.

I've seen a few people who had "itchy" hands but did not learn how to un-root and backup the original ROM before flashing. Then when they find out that they don't like custom ROMs, they have a hell of a time switching back.

So anybody who's thinking of flashing a custom ROM, please do your research first.

lol.... u can't stop people hand itchy de mah. XD

and advice to all is, learn how to backup ur original ROM and how to un-root. Just in case u wanna go back.

I'd love to have the HTC Sense UI on my phone

It's a little overrated. I use Launcher Pro on my Hero instead of HTC Sense's default home application. The Sense applications aren't very optimized for performance.

For a stock UI, HTC Sense did a really good job compare to others.

LOL Both RRP for Desire Z and HD are RM2299.

Means AP straightaway liao...

That sucks bigtime. I'm sad I spent the extra RM 200 for a G2 when I did, because the price will sure drop now.

Edit: Fixed.
