How to ROOT HTC Explorer/Pico



This is a clean and easy way to ROOT your HTC EXPLORER

First you have to install HTC Sync on your PC(you can download this from http://www.htc.com/ro/support/)

Unlock your phone's bootloader:HERE

(HTC Explorer isn´t listed as a working device yet but it has been tested and works perfectly. Choose "all other supported models" when selecting device.)
Add a recovery :This will allow you to install .zip ROMs. You can access to it in the menu android phones have when booting the phone after removing-inserting the battery and pressing "volume down" and "power" buttons simultaneously. (Other phones have different button combinations).

- Download A310E Recovery.zip
- extract it in any window on your PC (ie: C:\HTC)
- run the recovery.bat with phone in fastboot mode (first option in the "3 android menu" ) and connected with usb.

ROOT the device

- Place this Superuser.zip file somewhere in the microSD first.
- Go into Recovery mode ("volume down" + "power")
- install Superuser.zip with the option "install .zip from sd" from the recovery menu.
(After rooting dont restore to factory setting if you don´t want to end up in a bootloop.)
