Hi all,
So I've been trying to root my gingerbread upgraded DHD but with no luck. Looking for a litte insight as to how I've went wrong.
1. Tried following the below link
[GUIDE] Telus Desire HD - Rooting and Flashing - xda-developers
Prob here from what I read was that these instructions were for if you had froyo still installed so when i put in the last line, the cmd gives the error message:
adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp
adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version
adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter
Failed to set prot mask (innappropriate ioctl for device)
So I found out that I need to use gingerbreak but have had no luck with that either. I downloaded the DOWNGRADE file needed and pointed the CMD to it but am still getting nothing. See below

[+] Plain Gingerbread mode!
[+] Found PT_DYNAMIC of size 232 (29 entries)
[+] Found GOT: 0x00014360
[+] Using device /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0
[*] vold: 0000 GOT start: 0x00014360 GOT end: 0x000143a0
Basically I'm truly stuck with where to go from here. I have tried 10+ times or more to run the gingerbreak from the downgrade v2 but get no further then the above. Do note that I have waited quite some time with each running say 20-30 mins and got nothing ut the last line of listed from the command prompt
Even tried the below for kicks:
1. Did factory reset on the DHD....tried again and no luck
2. Recreated gold card a few times and still no go
Could someone out there shine a little light on how I may get past this and downgrade so that I can root. I read somewhere that the only way to use gingerbreak is with S-OFF and not S-ON.
Please help!!
