I have HTC Gratia with android 2.2 froyo. I try roth with unrevoked for htc aria which I download from site unrevoked.com

I instal driver and run unrevoked and after some time, restart, start root I get message "failed to unlock NAND flash". I try tree times but I alwys get same message.

Second I try z4root. I install this apps and run permanent root option and it do something , then restart but my gratia is still dont have root.

Third I USE SuperOneClickv1.9.1 AND START root...Error:Failed

Fourth i use UniversalAndroot..and Error

Is it posible to root my phone and please someone halp me to do that.

Please help me...:(
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FALCON-LORD:
I looks like you are facing the same issue I am.

The new ROM released for the Aria has a much more secure HBOOT version, and a hardware device called an XTC clip is required for setting S-OFF which is the first step required to root the phone.

If you have a look through the thread I have here it covers what is required.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1083209

note I am making life a bit more difficult because I don’t want to just deploy a pre cooked ROM, but the rest is there.

[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xboxhaxorz:
yes you need to have your phone unlocked and rooted with an XTC clip
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmo123:
Hi everybody,

I also have the HTC Gratia and want to root it and install custom ROMs.

So what do I ask the guys at the store to do? To turn S-Off and that's it?

After security is off can I use tools like unrevoked to root my phone or do they have to use the XTC Clip for that as well?

So again, please correct me if I'm wrong. To install another ROM i need to:

1.) Go to place that has an XTC Clip and let them turn S-Off

2.) Use a tool like unrevoked to get root

3.) Install a ROM using Clockwerk ROM Manaer for example.

Thanks in advance
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tpbklake:
Once you gain S-OFF, you can flash ClockworkMod custom recovery. Check out this post and it's associated discussion thread on the steps to follow once you gain S-OFF.

After a few issues, I am happy to say that a full install of Debian is running on my shift (with CM7 ROM). Moreover, I can use Android VNC to have a GUI. I attached a few pictures of the software I have been able to run so far :)

It is too much for me to write up a how to, but if anyone wants to ask some questions, feel free.
[EVO Shift 4G General] BuddahWolf01:
I have no idea what that is, but Congrats. Looks pretty sweet.
[EVO Shift 4G General] cloverdale:
It is a full Linux distribution running side-by-side with android. This has been possible since the G1 days, but is different for each phone, and no clear instructions really exist.
[EVO Shift 4G General] danaff37:
I had this running before with some modifying of the hero script, but once my data hit full, I couldn't run it after putting some apps on the sdcard. Froyo moves apps to the sdcard in loop form, and once I got bash and a working a vim on android, I quit messing with it since those extra loop devices interfered with it
[EVO Shift 4G General] cloverdale:
I actually installed it myself, and put it on an ext3 partition on my sdcard (5GB currently). I am going to go buy a 32GB sd in order to run more.

[EVO Shift 4G General] cloverdale:
It would not be too hard to get Fedora working, but I really do not like it, so would rather not spend any time on it. Compiz will install (tried it yesterday) but I am not able to get it running right now.
[EVO Shift 4G General] flannel:
Sweet!

This looks awesome! I'm now considering trying this out.

You said you wouldn't be writing up a how-to, but would you be willing to help me out with some sort of resource/starting on where I could read up on this and start figuring it out? I remember the guy over at Nexus One Hacks who accomplished this with Ubuntu on the Nexus as well as on the G2. Would I be correct to assume your method is at least similar (in my very limited understanding) to his since you mentioned accessing the GUI through VNC?

Also, how's it running for you? What I mean is, now that you've got it working, are you able to get some real work done in Debian from the phone, or is it still pretty much just a proof-of-concept for this sort of hardware?
[EVO Shift 4G General] DWake014:
Pardon my ignorance, but what exactly is this?
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
Fair enough on the not liking Fedora thing but if you can get compiz effects + phone functionality working you're a boss.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Scaryghoul:
That would be quite a waste of resources and unncessary taxing.

@DWake - It's a linux operating system within android, like a normal desktop OS.

@OP - You just chrooted into it/setup loop devices right? I did something similar earlier this year with ubuntu(I was following another devices image/stuff, I personally wouldn't pick anything with a gui installed)

Anyways congrats o.O

Is there a default Gingerbread apk that can replace the textinput-tng.apk?

Also, what does the default chinese keyboard on Gingerbread look like?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] constin:
Install any keyboard you like, or multiple keyboards if preferred. Then, go to /data/app and copy the APK to /system/app.

The keyboards then becomes permanently (default) activated keyboards, meaning there's no need to check them in settings to activate them.

Edit: I have added a section to the OP with details on this. Basically about ~100mb of unused storage is wasted in /system/app that can be made used of.

1. What's the name for Hanashi? I can't see that in my /system/app.

2. What's the difference between moving the "safe-to-remove" apks to the sd card, and freezing them via TB? Which is better? Safer?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mariolouis:
Lawgone

1. com.sonyericsson.hayashi-1.apk

2. Works basically the same. You back-up the apk to the /sdcard.

Edit: One small detail, with titanium backup, you can also backup its data so its apk+data.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lawgone:

Removing some bloatware (within /system/app) frees up space for which specifically?

"System ROM" or "Internal"?

Is Internal the same as RAM?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] daveybaby:
It frees up internal Flash storage (it's not really ROM because you can write to it - it's more like EEPROM).

If there is any bloatware which always gets run on your phone, then removing it will also free up some RAM. Killing the task would achieve the same thing though, so it's not that big a deal.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jtdc:
sorry for the double post
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jtdc:
Thanks. I realized that no matter how you remove bloatware from the rom, if it is not loaded at all or use the ram then there's no effect at all. Now it seems a good thing to then is to put the most useful apps for you in the rom and make use of its space. Is that recommended?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mariolouis:
It depends on the app. Sometimes, even if you don't click on it, some apps will run in the background when there is a "call". Like maps, market. etc. will automatically run when you connect to the internet. Dungeon hunter automatically runs in the background when a text message comes in. (I know that is weird!?)

Some apps will even just run on itself despite there is no "call". Some will re-run on itself even if you have task killed it already. Depends on the app how it was written and its dependencies actually. I use a task killer just to know which app does that. Then decide if I really wanted to keep or uninstall it permanently.

And I do move some of my apps to system to save space. I use titanium backup to convert most used "user apps" (usually apps that need to be in internal like widgets, etc.) to "system apps".
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jtdc:
Yeah good point, I am constantly reviewing running apps now and checking what to move and remove. Btw, when I removed the Chinese keyboard and installed Swype, and went back to SwiftKey, SwiftKey won't activate anymore. Even if i uninstalled swype and reinstalled SwiftKey it doesn't work anymore. I had restored Chinese from backup, reinstalled SwiftKey, now all is working again. I will not remove Chinese then. Hehe.

I have a branded and unrooted Arc with android 2.3.3.
