The Amaze 4G recently got updated to Ice-Cream Sandwich, breaking root for devices that were previously running Gingerbread. This post will show you how to root the ICS-running Amaze 4G and install a custom recovery if you plan to flash a custom ROM.

I. Before You Begin
1. Make sure that you have an unlocked bootloader before you proceed.
2. This solution works for both the Gingerbread and Ice-cream Sandwich versions of the Amaze 4G.
II. Necessary Downloads
Download and install HTC Drivers Here
Download Amaze-All-In-One-Kit Here
III. Rooting the Amaze 4G
1. Extract Amaze_All-In-One_Kit_V3.2.rar that you downloaded above to a folder on your desktop.
2. From the extracted folder, run Amaze 3.2.exe.
3. If you haven’t installed the necessary HTC drivers already, select Install HTC Drivers and click on Go. Wait for the drivers to install.
4. Connect your device to your PC with USB Debugging enabled. To enable USB Debugging, go to Settings > Developer Options and tick the USB Debugging checkbox.
5. If you haven’t unlocked your bootloader already, follow the instructions in the first section of Hasoon2000 AIO Kit.
6. Select Perm Root (GB/ICS) under the Extras section and click on Run. This will push the SuperSU.zip file to your device’s SD card and reboot it to recovery.
7. Once in recovery, choose Install zip from SD Card.
8. Locate SuperSU.zip on your SD card and flash it.
9. Select Back and then Reboot the phone.
After reboot, you should be holding an Amaze 4G that is rooted and ready for all those root-only apps available on Google Play!
IV. Flashing Custom Recovery
1. Connect your device with USB Debugging enabled.
2. Select TWRP 2.1.0 under the Recovery section and click on Flash Recovery.
3. Follow on-screen instructions and wait for reboot.
Your Device is rooted and TWRP flashed now!!! Enjoy :D
