Largely speaking, no. I know they can be a PITA, but there are tools to do it quickly. Search for easy goldcard method, or words to that effect

It works as you need VISIONary+ to obtain TempROOT. So after that by running WPX script the WP is disabled for emmc. So you can push eng_hboot and turn S=OFF to gain PermROOT.
Make sure your on Stock2.2.1Sense as GB2.3.4Sense has issues as you can't use rage exploit any more, so look in to Gingerleak.

The steps are very easy to follow.
If you have a question, just keep reading the posts.
Someone's already asked and someone's already answered.
BUT if you can't find an answer. Msg me I'd more than happy to help.
Its easy. Just read the instructions and take you time. Lots of pros with a rooted phone....titanium backup, faster, newer roms, etc.....better battery life is one thing. I use faux's AOSP 1.2.8 and its silky smooth.
Rooted/OC'd/1.2.8
ya this is how i rooted, pretty easy

That depends on person to person. I myself can't use a device without radio security disabled. As S=off does have its advantages but even in awake of all the BS that I discovered regarding our Glacier after spending close to 1K on it I would still root it. As I did few times and ill do it again as no risk no game.

[Q] How to root RUU ARA 3.13.415.2 without downgrading?

Greetings,
long story short I was doing some test on ROMs went to CM7 and other version then blackout ICS but all fails with me since CM doesn't have Internet-pass through and BK ICS has hotspot and VoIP problems + some lacking, so I went back to RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_ARA_3.13.415.2_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_227469_signed
which made me lose my root but comes with Android version 2.3.5, for rooting it tired to use SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse , unlook root 2.4.2 and finaly aahk-11092012, the first 2 didn't work out with, on the other hand AAHK made it root..etc but with a cost that have to downgrade to 2.3.3, so I'm back to square one is how to root 2.3.5 without down grading?
I believe i have something missing and I don't know what it it.
I have read these before posting

Just to let you know once again this is the HTC legend forum you wont find answers for any other phone unless someone who uses the legend forum also has the same phone as you, so you are better off asking your question in the correct forum.

there is no one click root anywhere for htc phones.. that was developed for motoroal and other model android phones.. to root htc you have to flash root from recovery.. for samsung some you can use the superoneclick or you can use odin (cuz superone click is built for fast automating odin)

question is your bootloader unlocked? because i just saw this video here on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L30M6j8Kt-8 that talks about this script... i'm not sure if you have the right one you might want to check with video.. just saw that, that script was from xboarder56 and i googled and found other instructions here http://theunlockr.com/2012/05/01/how-to-root-htc-amaze-4g/ but idk.. the normal way has always been the only way that has worked for me, but your welcomed to try
