i seen it on here a few times what i would like to know is what does it do
does it remove anything and does it install anything on there ?
 
I intend to root my Desire using unrevoked3 (possibly tonight or tomorrow night...). I've flash debranded to a generic HTC Rom (2.10.405.2) and I've got a Goldcard installed but I haven't unlocked the phone yet... Do I need to have the phone unlocked by Orange before I start?
 
Thanks dude. This whole rooting thing using unrevoked looks really quite straightforward, even for a ham-fisted technofool like my goodself...
 
Yah its easy. I originally rooted old style. Took about half an hour or so.

Saw everyone talking about unrevoked and realised.I.knew.nothing about it. I needed.clockworkmod recovery flashing.so used unrevoked to.do it. So very easy

Click to expand...

It doesn't remove anything.

A one-click way of gaining superuser access (plus clockwork mod recovery), *without* losing your data.

But. You will lose data if you wish to un-root.

Rest assured... Easy as 1-2-3. Good luck!
 
Roottastic! Yup, took me about 15 minutes, but that included sorting out the USB driver, and fiddling about with it etc. The actual deed can't have taken more than 5 minutes. AWESOME! Thanks guys for your help and encouragement.
