Steps to install recovery and root HTC Explorer

 Remove the battery of yout phone and again insert the battery and press the volume key down+power button after some seconds your phone start in boot mode and plug the usb in your phone. 

 To root HTC Explorer, you first need to unlock the bootloader of it.

  • open c:\ drive and make a android folder and extract A310E recovery on overthere
  • To unlock the bootloader, visit this and follow appropriate steps there.
  • Open www.htcdev.com and register yourself
  • Goto Bootloader 
  • and HTC Explorer isn’t listed as working device there  but it has been tested and works perfectly. So, choose “all other supported models” when selected device



    -Click "Yes" to continue.

    -You must accept the legal terms here, basically its saying that:
    -HTC and your carrier are NOT responsible for your actions
    -You are voiding your warranty
    -If you screw up, look to the community for help, not us, or we will charge you full price for a new phone




    Now we can finally get started! You can follow the instructions on the website, or you can follow them here. They are the same. I am simply re-posting for reference and ease of access (and making my own tweaks to better understand).






    Danger! Dragons lay ahead! This will factory reset your phone! Thus loosing everything! (It did for me at least)






    Prereqs:
    1. You followed above and have created and HTC Dev account
    2. You have the Android SDK installed
    3. Your Rezound is in fastboot mode, connected via USB to your computer
    4. Your Rezound has a fully charged battery
    5. The HTC Dev site instruction page open, following along, as you will need to interact with the site when it comes time, note, my instructions may be a bit different our out of order, I assure you, they are the same.




    NEXT FOLLOW THE HTC WEBSITE STEPS
    (this is on the website)


    After you've pulled the battery and placed it back in, hold VolumeDown and Power button to restart. At white screen, select Fastboot with volume rocker and hit the power button. Connect cable from phone to your Linux computer

    Open a new Terminal window type c:\>cd android then press enter and type in
     
    Code:
     chmod +x fastboot
    close the terminal and reopen and c:\> cd android then press enter and test it out
     
    Code:
     fastboot devices
    type in

    Code:
    fastboot oem get_identifier_token
    You will get a big block of numbers and letter. This is what you need. Following along with the HTC Dev site as well, keep going through the steps until you get to this part and to the part where is asks for this block.





    IMPORTANT! You need everything including the text that reads: <<<< Identifier Token Start >>>> and <<<<< Identifier Token End >>>>>.
    (Leave the command prompt window open, you will need this still)


    Paste this info into the submit field and click on submit!

    If it goes through you'll get a Congratulations webpage and your unlock file will be sent to your registered email.

      Download the Unlock_code.bin file into the c:\>cd android
            Go back into the Terminal window.
            Type Code:
      C:\android>fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
A very beautiful screen shall pop up on the phone, asking you to unlock! Use volume button to scroll, power button to select.
I hope that selected "Yes?" Right? I hope so!


The Rezound you own now has an unlocked bootloader!
 
 
  • run recovery.bat file with phone in fastboot mode(first option in “3 android menu”) and connected with USB
  • Now, its time to root HTC explorer and for that put Superuser.zip in root of SD-card.
  • Go into recovery mode by restarting the device and then pressing volume down and power key simultaneously till it boots into recovery.
  • Select install zip from SD card and navigate to where you placed superuser.zip
  • select superuser.zip there and let it complete its process.
  • finally reboot the phone.
If everything is perfectly done, you will have rooted HTC Explorer in your hands.
Now as you have rooted your device, you can move all your apps to sd-card using link2sd
