Root Trouble with rooting my HTC Desire

Yeah, I can confirm that I had stability problems with Mildwild's tweaked Redux2, but never with the original. So kernel sounds a good fix if you have similar.

I have the One X+ which I am very pleased with. Hadron has the One so perhaps he will give you an insight. Looking forward to the Sense 5 update arriving soon I hope.

The One is pretty slick - very fast, utterly lag free, and also despite the large, stupidly high-res screen I get about twice the screen on time of the Desire, with much less tuning done to it.

I'm actually still using the stock ROM, though using Apex launcher. I am however rooted (and S-Off), because I don't feel comfortable without the options it gives me. :). I'll start playing with ROMs when I have a bit more time on my hands.

See, this infuriates me, how they can give s-off to the one, but not on a much older one x. :mad: :mad: :mad:
 
They did get S-Off for the Qualcomm based One X eventually, but the model we had used the tegra chipset. :(

At time of writing you can no longer get S-Off on the One if you have already updated to 4.2.2 - that update includes a hboot "upgrade" which blocks the exploit, and also stops "fastboot boot" working. So One owners who want S-Off should do it before updating.
