At this time there is no way to root an Aria with the 1.0.2 hboot with software. There is a hardware method but it is expensive. The other option is to send your phone to someone and have them use the hardware method on your phone for you.
If you are interested in getting your phone "fixed" go here and ask for attn1:

Total cost was around $35 USD with shipping both ways. He got my phone back to me super fast and now I am no longer stuck on the official rom. Well worth it.
What the hardware does is turns off the security flag on the device. This is what they call s-off. Once your phone is s-off you are able to load custom recoveries to your phone like clockworkmod and then flash custom roms.

[Q] How to Dump ROM and Root New Device (Mi700 DroidPad)

I know this is not a HD2 question, but I am desperate for some guidance and answers. I am about to get my hands on a new Mi700 DroidPad, a budget Android Tablet, with Android 2.2. I wrote a review which was picked up at Engadget http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/30/c...wfully-famili/. The software as I can perceive it so far is problematic (slightly buggy). Since this is a new device (and I have checked for any development efforts from the Net and found none so far), I was wondering what I should do in order to:
1) Root the device
2) Dump the ROM
In regards to rooting the device, I was thinking since it shares the same CPU as the Aria and Legend (MSM7227), can I just use the one-click root method? I will try that, but would like to know alternatives if that fails.
On dumping the ROM, well... I have no idea what can be done, but would love to try doing it, so that Flash can run on it. At the moment, though it is on 2.2, Flash does not appear in the Market.
Anyway, thanks a lot guys. If anyone can help clarify the matter or point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated. Btw, I'm trying to arrange with CSL to give developers some discount on purchasing this device which is equal in functionality with Samsung's Tab, without the crazy pricing.
Thanks!

hi if you are rooted with a custom recovery,you cannot receive updates from lg as it would mess your phone up, i actually thought that if you were just rooted with stock recovery and stock rom you could get and install updates but maybe verizon is different as they seem to be in a lot of respects

"Error: UEGetPhoneInfoFailure UE_2003" when trying to update to 6.0.1

Hi,
I just bought a sony xperia Z5compact from another guy that barely used it. He gave it to me with apparently, a stock ROM. But I dont know if the other guy did anything on the phone like rooting, unlocking, whatever.
But now I want to update from 6.0 to 6.0.1 and I cant do it. Neither in the phone, nor with the computer coz I get this error:
error: UEGetPhoneInfoFailure
UE_2003".
I checked more, and the phone has TWRP recovery and an Androdplus kernel. So it has been modified, but I dont know how to check the status of the bootloader or if it rooted.
I want to update the phone to 6.0.1. and I would like to have a stock rom and a locked bootloader. (because I read that custom rom and unlocking bootloader affect to the function of the camera).
How can I do it?
I am getting different information over the forum and the internet, and I am getting a bit lost...
the security thing from service info, stays like this

htc one m9+ supreme camera

hi guys.
firstly its my very first thread so please ignore the poor posting.
i have a htc one m9+ supreme camera (m9px) hong-kong version.
after flashing a faulty SU the official/stock firmware went faulty and didn't boot back on.
i had to wipe the whole device to be able to try new rom or even firmwares. here is the problem i cant find anything for this phone!
sure i did manage to find a Taiwan version which i flashed but Baseband, radio and ota is not working.
i found a HK version on "easy-firmware.com" and "ir-file.com" but i think it was a fake one (check out the pic).

}
thus no chance found there. interesting thing is i didnt find the m9px recovery i managed to find a m9pw (htc m9+) and flashed it surprisingly its working , yet it seems because of the difference in models (hiau_ml_tuhl for m9+) and (hiaur_ml_tuhl for m9+ sc) every time that i want to install ota it goes to recovery and recovery cant flash the ota.
so if someone could help me out in any ways i would really appreciate it. or would you send a back up your phone (same model) to me to flash would be awesome too.
thanks again

Replacement M9 Phone should I try and update or root first

My original M9 battery is not holding a charge after about 3 years of faithful service. I was able to pickup a new M9 and would like to root it. It is a AT&T phone and my current provider is AT&T.
How should I go about rooting this phone should I put it on my AT&T account and then root after it gets an update or should I try and root it first ?
I am happy with stock but I do like Viper Rom (but worried that there might not be much more development in terms of custom roms for the M9)
Thanks for any help or guides you can point me to
