HTC Wildfire

:rolleyes:


How long did it take you? I really want to root my wildfire but I'm too scared of doing something wrong.

Including downloading files and reading, half an hour, maybe a bit longer, its really easy! I can give you the links I followed if you like? Or do you have MSN? I can walk you through it?

CPU overclocking should be fine, CM7 won't let you do anything dangerous unless you go out of your way to do it, just watch the battery life as you say. You might also want to look into Apps2SD+ (or Apps2SD Legacy) which will move entire apps onto a partition on your SD Card rather than bits of them, that way you can install 100s of apps


@ Shar, if something goes wrong you can always roll back unless it's a radio update. Rooting (once you've got the guides) should only take 10 - 15 mins. Also your phone will be noticeably faster without HTC Sense.

Im currently running at about 570mhz, it came with 527mhz, what would you say I should go up to, realistically? Any other good apps that could speed up my phone or anything? might overclock it to maximum, run a benchmark then bring it back down to about 600?

Good little phone you have there , I despise BlackBerrys after having 4 different ones.

I'd take you up on that when I have the time to root it, thanks
