IS YOUR FIRMWARE TOO NEW?
[Wildfire Android Development] banny7000:
Doesnt sound promising,maybe they are struggling with it,or arent interested with wildfire or are just sick of people asking,plus there are gonna be more wildfire owners coz you can get sim free for just over 100 quid.I could shoot myself for updating ota,anyone know when unrevoked next update is,I'm sure there's someone in the know round here?

it's worcking with wildfire ???
[Wildfire Android Development] Mazo86:
help me please with this
[Wildfire Android Development] Doma93:
do you have a correct adb driver? (the google's one) make sure htc sync is not installed!
[Wildfire Android Development] vijaykr1985:
Unrevoked working on HTC wildfire :)

Good news friends.

This is the message i read from Twitter.

"Maybe good news for people with HTC Wildfire. We're looking at it. (Also maybe good news for people with EVO Shift 4G sooner or later.)"
[Wildfire Android Development] Mazo86:
htc sync was installed but then i uninnstalled it. is that problem?

adb driver how i can install it?
[Wildfire Android Development] Doma93:
so htc sync must be uninstalled. now when you connect a usb cable to the computer with usb debugging on, device manager shows an unknown device ADB. you can find google's adb driver here: developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html

also make sure that you have the unrevoked bootloader driver installed - you need to install this one when you start the bootloader on your phone by turning it on with volume down pressed.
[Wildfire Android Development] Lorreats:
IS YOUR FIRMWARE TOO NEW?

How do I solve this? :confused:

HTC Wildfire
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
It's a message typically shown if you have the official HTC Froyo update on your Wildfire. If that's the case, hard luck. You cant root your phone as of now.

If that's not the case (You are not on official Froyo), then, use Unrevoked 3.21 rather than the newer versions.
[Wildfire Android Development] Lorreats:
Aaah damn. Hope a new release will come out soon.
[Wildfire Android Development] arixal:
need help with busybox

ok, so I got my brother's WF unrevoked.. it says it already rooted..

the superuser icon and app is already there.. but I can't install busybox.. it always fail saying "your phone is not nand unlocked"

how could this be? anyway to solve this?

thanks in advance..
[Wildfire Android Development] Mazo86:
i have done everything but still shows error.

unrevoked bootloader install and everything other is automated is that problem

unrevoked makes everything automatic.

should i install bootloader manually ? and when i must push volume button?
[Wildfire Android Development] Mazo86:
sooooo i think i have rooted my wildfire. unrevoked shows done is it rooted finally? but i cant copy new fonts when i am aplying fonts with typefresh phone restarts. and when i am using root explorer and deleteng font and trying to paste new one also phone restarts
[Wildfire Android Development] Mazo86:
also i have same problem when rooting whith z4root in root explorer shows 200 mb used 50 free and when i am pasting fonts it shows 250 mb used 0 free and says cant copy not enough free disk space
[Wildfire Android Development] kevin2516:
you won't be able to change fonts like that without full root, to do stuff to /system directory while you are booted, we need s-off. so you can pretty much only flash fonts from recovery now, but im assuming you aren't perm rooted anyway cause of official froyo.
[Wildfire Android Development] Mazo86:
i have android 2.1 not froyo

s-off ?? where i can find that
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
S-OFF is not yet possible on the Wildfire, irrespective of OS and firmware.
[Wildfire Android Development] Mazo86:
so can i root my wildfire?

i need fonts georgian :)

[Wildfire Android Development] swapnil2155:
Hi friends , I got my new wildfire today morning......

i haven't updated to 2.2 froyo...

i am gonna try wildpuzzle Rom today...........

i want to know that after flashing custom ROM how can i come back to official one....

from where i can download them ................

one more query shall i able to change the LCD density :)

sorry for bad english
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Just read the "Unroot" Section of this guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=824396

For the RUU, select 1.25.720.1. Dont select any 2.2x because they are not rootable. Or, choose safe versions of 2.2x official ROMs. (After reading that guide, you will understand what I am telling here)

As for changing LCD Density, theres an app called LCD Density Changer, but, IMV, its not that good. And, your actual resolution doesnt change, but, the screen elements are resized.
[Wildfire Android Development] raid76:
thank you but just one problem,,at the end get error message ((is your firmware too new)) mine is wildfire android version 2.2.1 and software number is 2.22.405.1

thried to root my Wildfire with unrevoked

I followed the instructions for rooting my HTC phone but it was unsuccessful. I used my Linux and the program Unrevoked. The program did communicate with my mobile, it installed something and it did reboot my device. However after the reboot it replied with a message that it failed to start a service. I use the AVG anti-virus in my phone. Is this the reason, why it couldn't start the service? It seemed that my anti-virus didn't do anything about this procedure but I don't know. Should I uninstall my anti-virus before I run again the Unrevoked?

Thanks for your help.

It's the same thing. However, I feel that turkey's guide is better laid out and easier to understand.

That said, irrespective of whichever guide you follow, the end result will be the same. So select any that suits you.

after rooting with unrevoked ich shut don my phone and the led never turnes green for finish. when i try to switch on the phone the led still were red AND my phone doesn't turn on. i have to take out the battery. any ideas or fix for that?
[Wildfire Android Development] beastaki23:
my phone only turns the red led when i press "volume up" and power to turn on.first do make sure you dont (accidently) do that. also try press "volume down" and power to enter boot menu.
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
It's a known bug in Clockworkmod Recovery. There is no fix for it so far, and, as said above, try pressing Vol Down + Power to boot up the phone.

It is a possibility even I have considered (That HTC will use the same HBOOT / Protection mechanism for the WF S as it is in the WF), but, let it release first! It's too early to jump the gun here.

Hey Unrevoked Fellows,

When are you going to release the root for Android 2.2 ?

I heard you guys don't have a piece with you for testing. Is that the reason why it is delayed ?

Or have you given upon on us ?

Please.
[Wildfire Android Development] gremsems:
They''ve given up, so just don't bother asking them any questions about it any more.

They haven't replied to any questions at all lately, so F*ck 'em... but that's my feeling about the whole thing...

I'm just glad I now have a desire HD... no need anymore to wait for unrevoked to do nothing :D
[Wildfire Android Development] bongmaster:
they given up wen they say thay have not wen u say ;)

good ont he HD tho, i wanted one of them but it was too constly so i had to get the widlfire instead. hence why i am stil waiting on a solution to rooting that isnt the XTC clip
[Wildfire Android Development] buzzworkers:
Hope so

I hope someone is still thinking on Wildefire users, i have a friend who did the update by mistake and is now stuck on 2.2 stock, hope we can have some news one of these days or this friends of mine is going to need to change is phone for sure !

[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
If you see the forum it is posted in, it is "XTC Clip Support Forum". Rooting official 2.2.1 is already possible using this, and, is known long back. (It is a hardware flashing box)

yeah that is the only way for now but they have issues as i read here after that process
[Wildfire Android Development] rash799:
I need some help guys, I am trying to gain root acces to a Wildfire so that I can install a custom rom for someone but I cannot root the phone:(. Unrevoked shows an error and says something like "is your firmware too new?":confused:. The phone has the latest software update (2.25.1107.1) so would I need to downgrade to Android 2.1? If so are there any good tutorials out there? Are there any other solutions.
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Not possible to root / downgrade 2.2 using any software solution (Downgrade from 2.2 to 2.1 works, but is pointless because the HBOOT is still updated, so, even this cannot be rooted). Only way now is to find someone with an XTC Clip, get S-OFF, then, downgrade and root.
[Wildfire Android Development] rash799:
thanks for the help 3xeno. Is a root being developed by unrevoked for 2.2? if yes, has there been any word about a possible date (1 month, 2 months, 6 months from now)?

My friend will be disappointed, he only bought the phone because he wanted to read Arabic news on his phone. He did a quick google search and saw some websites displaying Arabic on this phone and naturally assumed that it supported Arabic. Oh well, I will have to give him the bad news tonight.:(
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
It is probably being developed, atleast as per a tweet they posted some time back in January on their twitter account. However, there is no word at all when it will be released, if at all.
[Wildfire Android Development] rash799:
Ok, at least that will give my friend some hope :D by the, I am sorry to move a little off topic but most people say they have got 2.2.1 but the version on this phone is 2.25.1107.1. Is this a newer version or is it just different on each network? If it is a newer version, does anyone know what has been improved?
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
2.2.1 is the Android OS version and 2.25.1107 is the firmware version. Firmware version differs from region to region, but the Android OS version remains the same. The differences in firmware will mainly be extra language support, the local GSM band support etc. The core OS features remains the same.
[Wildfire Android Development] rash799:
I see, thanks 3Xeno

[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
You are probably on Android 2.2.1 Froyo, which is not rootable by any software methods at the moment. Check your Android version. If it is indeed 2.2.1, the only way to root it is to get S-OFF by using an XTC Clip (Which is a hardware box), then rooting.
[Wildfire Android Development] raid76:

I've seen we need to read the thread, but where can read it, sorry maybe to be a pain in the ass but a bit novice.

thx in advance for your help......
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Rooting and installing a Custom ROM wont let you use an Orange SIM Card on a Vodafone locked Wildfire. You will need to Unlock your Wildfire for it.

And, as far as I know, there is no free solution yet to unlock a Wildfire. You will have to pay to get an unlock code and use your Orange SIM.

Lastly, Unrevoked might be giving you the error because your Wildfire is probably on Android 2.2.
