I. Before You Begin:

1. You must have unlocked bootloader of your device. Visit the HTCDev website to do so.

II. Downloading Required Files:

1. ClockworkMod Recovery Image (Download latest version from the first post)
2. Root Script (It is attached there in the first post)

III. Installing ClockworkMod Recovery on the HTC Wildfire S:

1. Download and place both the files onto your Desktop. Do NOT extract any files from the archives.
2. Connect the HTC Wildfire S to your PC using the USB cable.
3. Transfer the ClockworkMod Recovery Image and Root Script files to the root folder of your device’s SD card.
4. Disconnect the device from your PC after the files have been transferred.

8. It should automatically detect the PG76IMG.zip file and prompt you to flash it. Choose Yes and it should begin flashing.
9. Reboot your device after the flashing is finished.
The ClockworkMod Recovery has successfully been installed on your device. Let’s see how you can use it to root your device.

IV. Rooting the HTC Wildfire S:

1. First of all, make sure that the Root Script file is still there on your SD card.
2. Turn OFF your device.
3. Reboot your device into the CWM Recovery mode. To do so, press and hold the Volume DOWN+Power buttons together.
4. Choose Recovery option from the menu that appears on your screen.
5. From the CWM Recovery Menu, choose install zip from sdcard followed by choose zip from sdcard.
6. Navigate to the folder where you put the Root Script file and select it for flashing.
7. It should take a minute or two to finish flashing the file.

VITZ “INSERT MAP CD” SOLUTION

Image
By   Moonis ( zaitron )   on   December 3, 2010 For those of you who have a JDM navigation system installed in their Toyota (vitz, belta, axio, etc) and get the following message on their navigation system “INSERT MAP CD”, i have the solution for you. All that the system needs is a boot CD that will bypass this message.

It means to strike terror into the hearts. Being a muslim it's our firm belief that every single word of Quran is full wisdom. Quran talks not about 'destruction' of the enemies.

If we observe, this is exactly what has stopped India from attacking Pakistan on a number of occassions. E.g. After attac
