Easiest way to perm root? - HTC Amaze 4G

What does everyone feel is the easiest method to perm root the HTC Amaze? It's currently running 4.0.3 if it matters.

If you looked, pretty much the only way to achieve perm root is either by using hasoon's tool, or by installing a custom ROM

I wish someone would make a thread, some sort of resource that has all info you'd ever need.. I wish they would do this, and sticky this thread- maybe even call it a bible.. like an amaze bible. The one place to go to get everything you need.
Seriously tho, I'm pretty sure we covered root in the bible, which happens to be linked in my signature, and stickied somewhere.. we pretty much took search out of the equation- if you find something that isn't in the bible, attach a comment in the doc or thread with the link and what it is for..
Oh, and not sure what device you are coming from, but we don't have opinions on things for the amaze. We have answers. If you saw somewhere where we left a question(like what is the best root) please let us know..

thanks man for the bible link!

Even a pro would be hard pressed to find a lot of answers with the search button.. which is why it was worth the effort of me and a few others to try to put as many answers in one place as possible.
And the sII is comparable to our phone, but I'm slightly jealous of the SIII. The only phone I would consider a big enough upgrade would be the SIII international version.. but with all the phones on the horizon I think I can wait a bit longer.
Welcome to the amaze, most of us are pretty friendly/helpful, but all of us have our bad days- or just days where people ask the same question for a billionth time, lol.

[Wallpaper] Samsung: "ALL YOUR ANDROID ARE BELONG TO US"

This is a dumb wallpaper I made for myself after reading someone post the phrase in another thread... thought others may like it.
I realize this is terrible.. that was kinda the intent.
Something good come from this thread, if:
Other people who actually have skills can make some very attractive/humerous "ALL YOUR ANDROIDS ARE BELONG TO US" picking on Samsung's recent events. Thanks to those people!

For whatever reason the attached image only shows up on my phone. Thanks for adding the new one, I love it. It's so simple and cheesy it brings be back a decade or so to when that video came out. I love the message too, I'm thinking about doing a theme with a 4G icon as a slap at Samsung.
^ ha ha, I dig it. I would live for everyone to make a cheesy one... Would be cool to have a lot to choose from.
Is this cheesey enough?

Your more then welcome to put a logo on there!! I have another one but im kinda hesitant. Lol

Cool.. I'll try and play in Paint later... That's right, not photo shop.
And if any devs want to use that as wallpaper in their next rom, all I ask is you give me credit!! Lol

Samsung: How are you community? All your phones are belong to us. There is no chance of firmware, make your own. HAHAHA!!!

Why such little development for the amaze?

So I'm coming off of a mytouch 4g, and just ordered an amaze off eBay today. So I was just curious why there seems to be such little development on a seemingly very popular phone? I'm am not nagging or complaining in any way, just generally curious. I'm pretty excited about this phone and it's potential. I'm also hopefull that we will get some CM love. So maybe some one can fill me in. I feel like I had the mt4g Dec thread down to a.science, but I have no clue what's going on here

because its only been out for a few months and we dont have S-OFF
seach through this general thread, it been asked once or twice so you will have plenty of answers in there. there are also a few bounty threads going to get some good developers an Amaze, so if u r fortunate enough to be able to u can donate to them to help pick up development
Perhaps because its expensive, not many devs own it, and so far is impossible to s-off?

Request Photo Editor.apk

For some reason I don't have this on my current ROM. Can someone hook me up? I don't have the option to edit images within the gallery.apk so I'm assuming is because this is missing...

well for starters you might want to tell people what rom your on and which apk you talking about there are alot of photo editors
Its the stock photo editor. While in Gallery you can edit the photo with the s pen...
I'm on the objective ROM, but that shouldn't make any difference in this instance.

What you might be looking for is PhotoRetouching.apk. And it should be in system/app
For future reference it does matter what ROM. You should be able to pull it yourself from another ROM like flappjaxxx's base or the OnlyOne.

I know it matters what ROM I'm using, that's why I said for this instance it doesn't matter. I have that app installed but still no editing like before...even reinstalled it. No difference...

[Q] Availability of the Stock Bootloader / Recovery for Flash?

Long Story Short : My impatience got to me, and I foolishly flashed the root for the non-US GS3 onto my phone. Now I'm soft bricked.
I was curious if the stock bootloader and recovery are available for download anywhere so I can flash back to basic function. I enjoyed the phone for the 4 hours I had it, and I'll be happy just getting back to normal for the time being.
Thanks in advance.
Not alone
Like an over excited kid on Christmas I did the same thing not thinking and it's not like this is my first time rooting a phone. Glad to know someone else did this too now I just hope we get a response!
just got back from the sprint store with the same issue. They dont even have the stock files yet!! But they did order me a replacement device that should be here in 3 days. Ahhh more waiting, even though this one is totally my fault
I was able to get to recovery with the CWM recovery posted in the Dev forum, but no further. Hoping to see a rip via the Kernel dump soon.
From the look of it, if there's a stock firmware flash, I can flash it on via CWM, when that becomes available.
Disappointing to hear the Sprint support doesn't have the flashes yet. Looks like I'm out in the cold. :|
