It is possible to root the HTC Desire from the U.S. Cellular stock Android 2.2 (Froyo). I have done so thank to some of the links found through the forums. I previously rooted an Android 2.1 HTC Desire but had to send it in due to a hardware malfunction (wouldn't charge). I did restore it to the stock install before sending it in (could switch back to s-on) and it was swapped out with no questions asked.
The new warranty replacement one came with Android 2.2 (Froyo) installed on it. I was able to root it. I installed the CyanogenMod 7 ROM running Android 2.3 (GingerBread) on it and it works great.
Since that time, I was eligible for an early upgrade and opted to go with the Motorola Electrify. As a result, I have my rooted HTC Desire for sale on eBay. I'll send it with the stock Android 2.2 ROM so that there won't be any questions when you take it in for activation. I will also include the Cyanogen Mod 7 ROM on the microSD card with instructions on how to flash, if you'd like.
