How to root your Incredible 2 with 2.3.4 explained

[Droid Firefighter]

But hey, this process is to unlock the bootloader and downgrade the software. Why would you try to unlock an unlocked bootloader? At what point did you mention you had an unlocked bootloader when you were crying for help? There is no need to throw attitude towards me or anyone else that tried to help you when this was a problem caused by YOU! That being said, I'm glad you got it to work, enjoy.

This post is Incredible 2!

Yo there's no attitude is was just saying that it would of been nice to know that you don't need to unlock your bootloader cause that's what I did figuring that I would have to do it just to be able to downgrade the phone cause no where that I have been says anything about if you stop by htcdev and unlocked your bootloader before trying to use vwhk downgrade that you will be unable to do so and go back and
re-lock your bootloader to proceed with the downgrade. I'm sorry if I came across like an a$$

All Honestly How Hard is This? Downgrading And Stuff......I'm A Bit Nervous About This. I Have rooted Phones Tablets Before But This Is A First That I'm Actually A Bit Nervous About. Why is This The Only WaY To Root It?

Hi All. I am trying to downgrade to from 2.3.4 so i can root on an droid incredible. I have followed all the prompts. disabled fastboot, enabled usb bugging, and ran the file associated with running. It says complete, but when i check my version I am still on 2.3.4. What am I doing wrong?

[gogogadgetguy]

do i need to have an sd card installed? Have run the process 3 times and still on 2.3.4

[gogogadgetguy]
