I updated my sprint HTC hero to 2.1 and after it was done and i played awhile. The first thought that came to me was why didn't just friggin root your phone weeks ago instead of waiting for this crap. please is there any way to go to 1.5? and no my lazy azz didn't back up 1.5. Or can the sprint android 2.1 be rooted yet? HELP
-Dumb Lazy Azz-
Are you saying you used the Sprint RUU?
If so, no you're stuck with it until or unless they figure out how to root it.
there is a subforum for this. it's called hero QUESTIONS and ANSWERS. I'm sorry, but is it really that hard? Sheesh!
It can't be rooted yet. You're stuck for a while
lmao...sorry buddy you've jumped the gun to quick. Its was mentioned million's of time, if you run the ruu from sprint you will never return to root access.Your stuccccccccccccccck unless something happens

It won't work. it requires su, which won't be on that RUU.

Yeah. I messed around with it a little bit myself, which is how I found out.
(No, I didn't RUU my phone and yes I'm still rooted)
That doesn't work on the new 2.1 release if I'm not mistaken.

Hey people,
Can someone with a download server post the RUU exe for those of us that want to download from here so that we can get at it there are some screwy things going on at HTC's site prompts for ftp credentials and the like. Any help would be greatly appreciated....if you're worried about crashing I'll gladly take a PM of the link

They're the same. The leak and the official are identical.

Seriously? It will break root even if you are already rooted and using a custom rom?
WTF?
Also, if it's the same as the leak does that mean bluetooth is still jacked up?

you will loose root forever? Forever means never and I highly doubt that it would never be rooted again.

The likely hood of us actually rooting a 2.1 build is there, but it is going to take a long time. Someone with the know how is going to have to either A. Buy a Hero - unlikely after June 4th or B. A dev will take the dive a load it just to find root.
Eris only has root because of a rom that was leaked with root still in it. They were never able to find an exploit.
Droid guys are actually having to load there 2.0.1 OS back to root the new ones.
It is entirely possible that this phone never finds root again.

Thanks for listing this gunny. New site I've thought about doing, but at least I have a domain and server available.
This is the file from HTC's site downloaded this morning, FYI.
This the Official or the Previous "Offical" leak.

Both are one in the same. MD5's match on both files.
will be mirroring when I get it uploaded as well.
so do i REALLY need th htc sync???
Thanks for the mirrors guys it finally came thru now I'm just trying to download htc sync to my work pc so I can update... I'm not too worried about root, blah, blah. Someone will crack it at some point when there's something better to do with it. I'm putting 2.1 on my phone to hold me over until I can upgrade to the EVO or Nexus One once Sprint get's it .
Thanks again for the guys that stepped up to mirror the host!
Someone please post how to flash custom image for hboot so I can put custom roms on again

okay I recently got my phone and upgraded to 2.1 from the sprint website before I learned what rooting was. I don't want to do anything fancy I just want to get rid of the pre-installed apps that I don't need so the phone will run faster, is there a way to get this done now?

No, sorry, you're SOL until a root exploit is found.
well I just downloaded qpst and it has this option to backup restore image could I use the image off of my other phone With root and place it on my phone without root?
so I've been playing around with my aria for a couple of weeks and turned my nexus back on thats rooted and sure enough I have an ota update available for android 2.2, which I already have on the phone.. possibly stupid question, if I update will I lose my root even though I did it bootloader method?
and I thought custom roms even if its stock didn't get ota's

Thanks for the link, it helped me, too.
You guys preaching to search (which I'm not against), I just wanted to point out that you linked to an entirely different site. Thus, had the OP searched *this* site, by your own admission, he/she might not have found what he/she was looking for. Interesting...
My 2 cents here...I had a rooted nexus one froyo 83b WITH a custom recovery.. which supposes to block the frf91 update..n guess what it didn't..my nexus rebooted..it didn't even reboot to recovery it just did a soft reset n when I it back on it had frf91 with no root access..so I'm like wtf?? So I tried to reboot to the custom recovery and yes..you guys guessed with...it went back to the original recovery...

Gotta agree, dont be lazy. Use the search like you should.
I just got an update notification also, and I'm rooted. I let it reboot/install but it showed an error. It was probably frf91.
ladies, congratulations on the update and re-rooting. i'm glad to hear that it worked out for yall.
So i got a replacement phone yesterday and it came with 2.3.4 on it. I tried to use unrevoked but it said failed cuz my firmware is to new. How do i root this? do i need to downgrade to 2.2? if so can someone tell me how. is it just a simple ruu flash?
Wrong section.
If you're S-ON then you're screwed, if you're S-OFF then you can root.

Not until someone finds out a root exploit. Until then, you can't root.

Yeah, and they can do that. The DInc wasn't released as a rooted phone, that's where the likes of Unrevoked/AlphaRev come in. They'll have to update their methods for the DInc, and I'm guessing that'll be with their tool named Revolutionary.
You may not be able to use the 2.2 RUU to get back to 2.2 stock. You can try it, but that may screw up your replacement too...? Unrevoked/AlphaRev have been working on the newer phones that've been released lately, so the time table for anything from them is unknown, if they even update to root the DInc 2.3 at all.
