I found this about rooting, is it really this simple, ignore the video....just read the literature

How To: Root the HTC Desire (Unrevoked Method) (Updated 1.18.11) - TheUnlockrTheUnlockr

can someone in the know please look at this, im really timid about rooting the phone but really need to as im running out of space,

is there any downside to rooting,

will the phone boot up as normal?
can i still use android market?

will using this method wipe my sd card? as all my contacts are on there.

If it really is this simple, I will try it......

Can somebody please give me some reassuring advice


Thanks alot guys

Dont use that, use our guides. Have a look in the "All about rooting" sticky thread. You should first read the Rooting FAQ too.

No warranty. You have to return it to unrooted before you can get warranty repair.

Yes of course

Why wouldn't you be able to?

Rooting is basically like adding an administrator account in windows. It has nothing to do with your data, applications or SD card. Please read the rooting faq.

Well in this forum, we all agree on how best to achieve something. We then document it and put it in the sticky thread, so if you stick to the "all about rooting" thread, you shouldn't get any conflicting info.

In the unlikely event that you run into a problem, having followed the guides Suroot has refered to, you will receive all the help you need from the experts on here.

By the way, it isn't that simple to solve your issue.

Just rooting your phone will not solve space issues. It will just allow you to use other tools to do that.

Me too... its the only place where information is not scattered in pieces
..
otherwise people recommend thing(tools) on the basis cause they have not tried other or there personal choices.

Its like crash course for rooting...Wish we could make money by rooting..something Like I am a professional rooter(lol)
