When installing roms, you'll have to flash the kernel separately because you're s-on. Third, do NOT try to install a non-Desire rom. Once you have the correct file, look at the 'fastboot flash recovery' instructions, they're the same, just a difference in the actual recovery file name. Second, do NOT go for the custom recovery that I identify for that phone - use the one identified for yours, probably ext4 if I'm not mistaken. HOWEVER don't follow the instructions precisely.įirst, say at that you're using a Desire. Here's how to do it with instructions for another HTC model on a Mac. You can get an unlocked bootloader, install a custom recovery and root your phone but without Windows you're still going to have encrypted signature security in effect, aka, s-on.
