Could you perhaps also add a [GLOSSARY] section? Some of us n00bs have no idea what "root", "hboot" and "s-off" mean?!
This thread would be an awesome starting point.

Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

i tried some search but failed to find the answer. grateful if somebody could answer this in FAQ:
How to restore to stock state (stock HBOOT, recovery & rom), in case of returning to htc for repair?
thanks.

Where can I find the original kernel DESIRE HTC HD?
To flash with ClocworkMod Recovery.
Thanks

What I was looking for in a FAQ/Wiki sections for the Android Platform was more on the lines of the following
Breaking down the structure for a 'build' as in the different components :-
kernels
ROMs
Boot.imgs
etc etc
A brief explanations as to the parts and any interaction/dependencies so that you know you can use x with Y but not Z
I am not bothered about bragging rights that clockdriod is better than magentamod, all I was after was a description so that I could make an educated stab at getting a quality working platform without bricking my device.
As of now I used used visionary to root my machine, then installed clockworkmod, and finished off with LeeDROID 1.2, but for the life of me I do not know if I need to have a different kernel, boot.img secure or unsecure or whatever.
THAT is the kind of info I am trying to put together in my own mind, and at each step understanding the outcome so that I am able to offer solid qualified support for any other newcomer to this fast evolving party, I have been using/involved in the WM platform from V5 onwards, cooking my own ROMS and offering support and assistance to fellow, so I am not a noob (as such) but have been VERY wary of applying settings as 'some' people around here dole out help/support/guidance without considering the ramifications to the poor sucker who does not fully understand what some of the changes actually do.
Please note this is not a gripe, more an observation, and I am working on my own glossary and will upload/add when I am confident the steps are safe (!)

Can any kind soul explain what can be done ONLY with S-OFF? e.g. if i want to apply themes that need to replace framework-res.apk, must i have S-OFF (or this can already be achieved by mounting /system as read-writable)?
Thanks in advance.

It's come to my attention that EU people are expressing an interest in this tool.
I'd be happy to expand support as log as I can get the proper feedback.
For hacking:
these lines in windows (hack-ace.cmd) validate the adb connection for the NAM ACE (Inspire):
if /i "%check:~0,-10%"=="MB" goto :working
if /i "%check:~0,-10%"=="HT" goto :working
I've added:
if /i "%check:~0,-10%"=="SH" goto :working
to support EU serial numbers starting with SH.
In Linux/OSX, it's this line:
sudo adb devices|egrep -i -q '(HT)|(MB)'
modified to look like this:
sudo adb devices|egrep -i -q '(HT)|(MB)|(HS)'
You can easily edit the script to add support for your model likewise. Please let me know what's missing and I'll add it.
Restoring to stock:
I'll need Carrier/region, stock CID, and a link to a RUU in zip format from a reliable mirror with an md5sum, then restore for that specific model can be added to that menu.
The link must be reliable and work with wget. No BS captcha/popup hell crap. No exceptions.
DHD boot images now added for non-North American Model DHDs, which should result in fully operational stock roms for ALL DHD, NAM and non-NAM.
The ACE Advanced Hack kit is currently the only one step s-off and root for devices requiring gold card and radio downgrade, and both processes are included in the one step.
If the PC is operating properly, no data is lost and the original ROM remains intact.
The goldcard process is fully integrated and goes fully unnoticed by most users.
If you have questions or issues, please visit the IRC channel in my SIG. Be patient, no one is paid to provide support there. We can help when available.
Gotta say thanks, its by far the easiest way I've heard of rooting the Dhd, i'm surprised its not better known about, I'll do my best to make sure more hear of your great work.
Everyone involved in this deserves a lot of credit
Edit.. You may find a bit more traffic on here now, I've got this stickied on the Dhd general sticky roll up thread. thanks again
just to say lots of thanks for great tool guys
tested with different build numbers
all worked great
so easy and great result
thanks a lot
My DHD is unbranded so I don't need a Goldcard. Can I use this tool to root my DHD?
Thanks

It shouldn't hurt. You'll just end up with a goldcard anyway that won't be needed. The HBOOT will just ignore the goldcard.

Hi, i have some EU ROMs if needed (Vodafone uk/f, O2 uk, Meteor irl etc).
Hi attn1
I'm a moderator in a german smartphone community (pocketpc.ch). For this community, I translated your EFFEN-Manual to German and added some important information for european dhds (as example the notice not to flash an AT&T ROM on a european dhd).
I'd like to link to the my german version of the manuel, but because i'm a new user on XDA it isn't allowed to me
I hope it's ok for you that I took your work without asking
I would be delighted if you pack de german EFFEN Manual to de package, so its easier to download and understand it for German users
Greetz and many thanks for your great work with the aahk!

Actually, I just need good reliable links to them and MD5s - the hack kit downloads the ROMS rather than including them. It would get very unwieldy mighty quickly otherwise - those RUUS are big.

Yeah, we can even do that and even have a language toggle for the menus. Stop into the IRC channel in my sig and we can work out details. WWE RUU's can be added to the restore menu, too.
My ROM is 2.50.405.2, latest original EU ROM
I just used this hack and I got Cwm but no s-off. Followed the instructions. Also I cant boot into the rom. I get stuck on the white screen (waited at the white screen for a couple of minutes).
Used latest ota stock europe rom.
Flashed custom rom now to see if it works.
Great program rooted and installed custom rom, in 10 minutes

Then there were some issues with your USB comms. Those should have been resolved so that you could rerun the hack kit properly. You may have a mess develop without S-OFF and a more current version of CWM.

Your instructions are nonsense.
I honestly have no idea why you're posting this garbage here. How do you intend to flash the recovery partition on a device which is S-ON or doesn't have bootloader unlock.
Even your own phone image (do you even own a smartphone given the lack of even showing the adb process) shows S-OFF. No wonder it works...
Also... it's "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img", so your instructions haven't even been tested.

One Click Root Method for Jelly Bean 4.1.2 Leak 1,2 & 3

What - This is a "One Click Root" Method instead of Swapper Method and works for Official Stock Jelly Bean leak 1,2 & 3
Where - See these two links :
Info link - http://bbs.angeeks.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2509099&highlight=%D2%BB%BC%FCROOT
Download link - [http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=210536&uk=3926112336
How - Just double click the 双击我RunRoot+SUPERSU.bat file and wait for things to happen. (双击我 - translates as double click me) Make sure to have adequate battery level before executing.
WARNING & DISCLAIMER - This is just a information post, I have tried this myself and has worked for me and please flash this entirely at your own risk. I assume no responsibility of any nature of damage to your phone if any after flashing this.
Credits - User with whom I interacted for this info, Wanngjghost for JB 4.1.2 leak, Atrix 2 community developers & contributors for everything in general, Motorola for Atrix 2
Mirror @ post # 21
Specifically regarding Leak 3 (contribution by user _ghiottone as below to this root process)
Quote
For Leak 3 it's work, but the boot.img need to change, because, the kernel not the same version (the build number 3.0.8 too, but the additional data/name aren't equal) .
This .zip contains the leak 3 boot.img:

So Nishant as confirmed by you it works. I believe you used this on leak 1, correct?
I mean the swapper root method was something else (pulling out battery et al) What was that thing about script runs fully in Chinese (as long as it works, no complaints though)
Today has been a great day for Atrix 2 - One click root method, 3 (T.H.R.E.E) ROM's based on JB 4.1.2, WOW, YAY..Loving it
I just wish Whirleyes gifts us BMM latest version having full support for Edison (I recall him mentioning Edison is not fully supported as the code of BMM is based off Spyder {hope i mentioned that right}) then we are set to rock with having JB 4.1.2 leak 1 as main system & three JB based roms simulataneous install option using BMM
All the text written in batch files is in Chinese so..... I'll say just blindly press any key when asked and you are rooted
Ya used it on leak 1..
Rooting on JB just easier
I have tried this out it is just so EASY to root our JB phone. Thanks to everyone who wrote the script and shared it. Thanks a ton...
I would say it has reduced the HASSLE of starting the phone in AP Fast boot mode rebooting it and then using all the commands. (No issues for the earlier method as it was really great)
Mods - Sticky please?

You need not to root custom rom. You are installing them on phone which is already rooted

Do I need to install anything else for rooting thru one click? I double clicked the file but the mobile entered into flashboot mode and I had to reflash the rom to restart it.
Mode of connection
Can anyone please specify in what mode shall I connect the phone? MTP/ mass storage/ Fastboot??

Root didnt work?
Hello,
I attempted to root My European Xoom which is on JB 4.1.2 Folowed the instruction from FAQ How do I root my device.
I followed all the instructions from Manual Root Way, by XxLordxX and everything went fine. Did exactly as said so when I finally reached the point where you download "Root Checker Basic" and it says Sorry! This device does not have proper root access. But there is a superuser app but it doesnt do much. So whats gone wrong guys?
Plus once this problem is fixed do I need to do Step 5: Backup Image to SD card and Step 6: Restoring Image from SD card?
To load a custom rom.
Cheers

Hi,
Thanks for following my guide! I will try helping you as much as possible! Please, try opening Superuser app and checking if it has the su binary (SU app usually does it automatically). And for step 5 and 6 are not necessary to load a custom ROM .

This is only the beginning. I'm not very comfortable yet with this part of development. Any suggestions or help is welcome.
Notes:
*Only tested in Stock Based Rom
Features
-Memory Swap. (SD Card is now recognized as Internal storage) ->Screenshot
(HOW I DID IT: Remember, the mod on the fstab files in jelly bean in order to swap memory? those files are now in the packed in the kernel boot.img file. What I did was unpack the kernel and mod the fstab files in it, then I repacked it back again)
How to flash:
-Flash it in the recovery. No wipes needed
Download
A special thanks to:
*bgcngm (for packing the scripts to unpack the kernel) ->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1587411
Disclaimer
*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash it correctly!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in CWM recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.
Enjoy, and don't forget to thanks

I no longer work on the research of this phone, so if anyone gives a had to the ursers would be nice. Thanks
Hi
Title is misleading
This is just a ramdisk with storage changes ...
As seen in several other MTK's.
Makes no sense your Github link, there's no source on this.
WARIING: DO NOT MIRROR THIS KERNEL. DO NOT USE THIS KERNEL IN YOUR ROMS WITHOUT MY CONSENT. IF THIS IS NOT RESPECTED I WILL NOT SHARE ANYMORE DEVELOPMENT ON THE ZTE BLADE L2

And makes no sense your disclaimer, there's no development here ...

You are right... you know when people are still noob but they think they discovered the world? yep, that's me....... I was trying to get more info about kernel related stuffs, then I realise this doesn't make sense, but i still didn't had the will of reformulate the thread..... lol...sorry about that mate. Anyway I say what I did and I say that it's only a modification to the original kernel..... and i "teached" other users to do the same thing...so yeah...that thing about the work being mine, it's kinda bull****.
