How to root stock 2.2 using unrEVOked 3.32

[blnko6]

ok this is gotta be the most stupid question but ....... how do i install the drivers from step one ? i plug my phone in and it says install drivers but then it gives me an error cause there is no CD ?
man i should have kept my rooted D1... hahaha jp
well thanks for the help.

According to the OP:

*In XP: the New Hardware Found Wizard should appear. Tell it NOT to use Windows Update, and moving along, tell it to look in a specified location. It will pop up a file open dialog. Navigate to the Android USB Driver folder, click OK then click Next.

*In Windows Vista/ Windows 7: You might not see the New Hardware Found Wizard. Open the Device Manager (Right click My Computer, select Manage, then select the Device Manager). You will see an Android Phone node in the tree with a "caution" icon node beneath it. Right click on the caution-marked node and select Update Driver. Select NOT to look in Windows Update; instead, choose Install from a specified location. It will pop up a file open dialog. Navigate to the Android USB Driver folder, click OK, then click Next.

thanks bro, but ok i did everything and after selecting device manager there is no Android Phone node....:icon_evil:

Give us the exact error that it is telling you, and also what version of Mac OS are you using?

 

[nyr900]

"you cannot use this version of the application Reflash with this version of Mac OS X." ..... and i am using a macbook... running version 10.5.8

"you cannot use this version of the application Reflash with this version of Mac OS X." ..... and i am using a macbook... running version 10.5.8

I have not seen this problem before. Do you have another Mac or PC that you could try?

 

[nyr900]

I have a pc at work.... I will try that

I am getting this same error as well and running the same version of OS X. PLEASE HELP!

 

[nyr900]

i wish i had an answer for you, i tried a few things to no avail... and the pc i have at work sucks, so i cant use that, let me know if you figure something out zach

well upon more research I turned this up, Unrevoked does not support your version of Mac OS X - Evorootwiki

Apparently its because were not running Snow Leopard.

Are you on a PC or Mac? If on a PC, do you have the proper drivers installed?

 

[obrien7360]

i got rid of htc sync and the drivers.. then i install them again just uninstalled htc sync and kept the driver but that didnt work so i uninstalled the htc driver and it still didnt work.. ya i have a pc

 

[obrien7360]
