[ROOT] MR1/OTA PermRoot + Unlock Bootloader - Safer/Easier 5/12/2011

It worked great. But you have to have the android sdk and all that good stuff.

I really doubt that the thunderbolt will EVER get Android 3.0 officially. Gingerbread is 2.3 (currently we're running Froyo or 2.2), and that is what *should* be coming out to t-bolt owners this summer....supposedly.

Edit: I get it now. Nevermind. Don't listen to me. :-)

Rooting is DEFINITELY the way to go, in my opinion. I couldn't live without it. I'm running BAMF Remix 1.7, and freaking love it!

Read through the rooting thread that thepolishguy posted the link to. That's the safest way to root, as long as you follow all of the steps exactly (ie read through the thread a couple times, make sure you understand it, THEN start). The easiest way to get the Android SDK installed and setup is through this thread. If you have any questions (after reading through these threads and googling any easy questions), the guys in this chat irc are EXTREMELY helpful.

Yeah. Can't stress this enough. I would recommend NOT flashing a GB rom until there are some more thoroughly tested builds of it.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wctaylor79:
HTC has already stated that they will probably not support a full Sense 3.0 on the THunderbolt. However they have stated that they will take pieces from that and incorporate into updates. The issue is with Sense 3.0 they are tying to corner the 3-D look and with a single core it makes it a little tougher. Sure the TB runs fine with sense 3.0 things. I am running gingerbread right now with all the sense 3.0 add ons, but for HTC to go public and give to all users it mayt not work as well. So look for pieces from 3.0 but I doubt the whole sense 3.0 will be coming. I am betting we stay on sense 2.1 when the gingerbread finally goes public and they just use things like the updated weather in future builds.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creepinm3:
So basically it will be a Sense 2.5? Or 2.1.5? Just tossing out ideas here

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnny quest:
all this sounds confusing. rooting this phone sounds hard and almost scary to a point of hit or miss. the sdk is so hard to install. I load it then there's a missing java jre, I'm using Avabox for signing my apk's and its running just fine with the jre 6. I had issues with both loaded.

I know there's got to be another way, revolked or something like that should be releasing something soon.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirtyfingers:
Honestly, just setting up adb correctly is probably the most difficult task in the root process and imho its not even that bad. The rest is just copy and paste and following simple directions. Jcase did an excellent job on the root guide so just follow his directions to a tee and you will be straight. I would not expect to see unrevoked anytime soon and would recommend you use the manual root method since you will learn the most from that.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miketoasty:
First off unrevoked will not be making a one click root for the TB. It is just not possible at the stage that we are at. Flashing an old RUU can't be done without human interaction.

Second, please don't tell me you know how to sign APK's but using adb scares you? The rooting process is just copy and paste. Hell, I am sure I could have my girlfriend do it and she ain't the best with computers let me tell you.

Either use the current 3 click root process, grow a pair and do it the manual way, or deal with stock and let you'r phone just never live up to its full potential.

P.S Just on a little side note. I have yet to hear off a TB get bricked by anyone using the manual root process, and if anything goes wrong JCase will be around to help basically anytime of the day.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djab67:
JQ,

I think I understand your concern. It is not with following the manual rooting steps, but rather installing adb on your computer so you can execute the steps, correct?

First a little clarity. The package you would install on your computer is the Android SDK. The Android Debug Bridge (adb) is a platform tool component within SDK.

SDK is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. Here is a link to Google's installing the SDK page:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html

You do not need to install eclipse or a bunch of other platforms if all you are going to really use is adb for the rooting process.

You will need to install the Platform Tools component addon, but that can be done within the SDK program. (it worked that way for me)

Here is Google's ADB page:

http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html

ADB is run in the terminal window on your computer ( command window if you use Windows). Depending on setup, you may need to navigate to the folder that adb is in to launch it. Assuming you installed sdk straight to c: in Windows, the path would be c:\android\sdk\platform_tools\

If you Google " how to install the Android SDK" or " how to install adb" you will find tons of helpful guides.

Once you have adb working head over to the link posted previously in this thread to root your TB. jcase's steps are well written and easy to follow. Btw: check those md5s on your downloads before you start flashing.

Hope this helps get you started. If so, please click the thanks button.

The power lock button broke on my cappy. So i took it back to AT&T and got a new one. At first the 3 button combo worked, I went to flash to complete stock 2.1 because i was about to go to GB. Well then i lost the three button combo and cant get it back. Should i try to take the phone back saying it wont go into recovery and try to get a new one. Idk if having to get into recovery is a must to them or if they'll say you dont need it. What should i do I got it back to stock 2.2 using kies from 2.1.

I really dont want to put up with a non 3 combo phone. What should I do? Get a JIG or go back to AT&T?
[Captivate General] artvandalay22222:
Rooting and changing roms voids your warranty, so if you tell them what your up to not only will they not help you, but they may void your warranty. Try a jig, or if you really want to take it back, return the phone to stock and tell them the gps still sux. Good luck

This is my signature, this is my gun. One is for posting, one is for fun.
[Captivate General] chrisd000111:
Im all the way back to stock, Im still showing the correct product code and everything so that shouldnt be a problem. Im just thinking how i can get them to give me a different one. I guess i can say i use recovery to wipe my phone clean every once in a while to speed the phone up. Oh and you need recovery if you get ota updates right
[Captivate General] studacris:
Not a big deal in the least.

If you were going to gingerbread anyway all you need is that first boot into download because once you flash gingerbread bootloaders you will have a working combo.

Its software not hardware, button combo is contained in the secondary bootloader, no reason to replace a phone because of slightly faulty software.
[Captivate General] chrisd000111:
Ok so i guess ill work on getting the three button to work tomorrow then go to gb, cause the three button fix by design gears wasnt taking, thats why i got a little scared, and i guess i better order a JIG. Ive been without one for 10 months but now im a little nervous lol
[Captivate General] chrisd000111:
and i guess once i get a JIG it will completely eliminate the use of the three button combo anyway. Cause im one of those people that goes back to stock on every flash and it would be a pain to have to do the three button fix. So i guess ill order a JIG from mobiletechvideos.com

Though it wouldnt help recovery as much but rom manager will take care of that.
[Captivate General] Mik3D23:
Didn't they have a three button combo fix a while back? I haven't been on here in a while since my captivate is broken but i seem to remember something like that...
[Captivate General] chrisd000111:
Yea i have the zip file to fix it but now my phone wont go into clockwork at all to even install it. It keeps saying signature failed
[Captivate General] yguns76:
Did you apply the 3e fix?
[Captivate General] jack man:
There's a .zip for that, too. Somewhere in the threads you can find the zip that will get you to recovery. Look for 3e recovery without signatures.
[Captivate General] studacris:
The 3e sticky is at the top of the page...i thought you flashed 2.1, you shouldn't have 3e that is a stock froyo recovery, what did you do?
[Captivate General] chrisd000111:
i had 3 button when i got the phone and then i went back to 2.1 cause i was gonna flash gb. so once i went to 2.1 i was mad that i lost it and updated it to 2.2 through kies thinking i would just take it back to att and thats when all this start happening.

So i got clockwork to work and the three button combo is now working also, so ill just flash gb straight from 2.2. That is fine right its still a stock rom with root but thats it. or should i now go back to 2.1 then get three button and then flash.

I hate that i have to add all these steps compared to before which was so easy and fast.
[Captivate General] studacris:
You can flash gb over whatever. I went from firefly to stock gb.
[Captivate General] chrisd000111:
Thanks alot i should be good to go now, Im never going to go to stock 2.2 unless im taking it back again.

I guess I'm gonna definitely order my JIG today too.

Yes I had some noise on mine too. I actually noticed that there was more noise after I did a factory reset; I have no idea why??? I viewed old movies without noise, and the ones had noise... But if you look at youtube, all the videos have the noise, so I don't think it is really that kind of a problem. Software could help this with filters...
[Galaxy S II General] fenomeno83:
problem is that noise is sometimes more than voice volume..if you download videos, you can notice that volume is too much low...if I speak, volume is too much low...

I don't understand why? because voice recorder application has not this problem!

Problem is only mine, because a made a test with a my friend and his volume recording is good..

I m having the latest nightly build june 1......There is an hd option in it .But when i press the record button , nothing happens.

There is a camera crash with green screen........so i took my battery out and restarted

WHAT IS THE SOLUTION
[Defy General] tava2003:
far as I know, both Epsylon3 and Quarx are working on solving all camera issues in the Nightlys versions, keep in mind that

Nightlys are only recommended for users with good

knowledge, are intended to be tested by

developers and to perfect last-minute failure to

launch an RC.

Another very important thing, if you have green lenses, you will not be possible

using the camera in HD mode (720p) due to limited

hardware. This would only be possible for those fortunate enough to possess

red lens.

In short, it would be keep the latest version

Nightly you worked acceptably, because they are throwing more than

3 per day with many changes and problems can occur.

I'm having an issue I can't get past..

I've got the Indonesian 2.2.2 rom on my Australian (Telstra) device (external sd, 2 cameras, resistive)

I'm using goodoane's v2.2 compatable CWM, and xaueious's easy windows flasher. The phone is rooted using superoneclick, and all drivers are installed fine. It process through all the steps until the following one with no problems.

Trying to install , but get the following error:

As you see it says FAILED <data transfer failure <too many open files in system>>

I cannot figure out a way to get around this. Using the easy windows install script. Please help!
[Ideos S7 General] rkarsk:
Downgraded to 2.1 and tried the same with 2.1 img. Exact same error. Someone please help :/
[Ideos S7 General] rkarsk:
OK, so I figured it out.

The drivers weren't installing properly on either of my windows 7/intel core 2 duo systems. So, I hooked the tablet up to me Windows 2000 torrent box, and the huawei drivers installed fine.

I was able to root through that computer, but as seen above I was unable to flash CWM.

So, after more tinkering, I became dedicated to fixing the drivers on my Windows 7 computers.

I copied the driver info from my Win2000 box, and then plugged the tablet into my Win7 PC.

Instead of using the 'update driver option' by pointing the computer to a specific location (where the huawei drivers were), I selected 'have disk', and then did that.

The drivers for 'Win7&XP' were still not working, so I decided screw it, and pointed the computer to the 'Win7-AMD' drivers using the have disk option. I specified the correct INF (as seen in driver details from the Win2000 box), and to my surprise it installed correctly!

I then enabled USB debugging, and followed the exact same process; pointing my computer to the Windows 7-AMD drivers as opposed to the Win7&XP drivers, even though I have an intel CPU. It worked.

I then flashed CWM onto my Tablet with the stock 2.1 rom. I'm now upgrading to indonesian 2.2 and will flash the appropriate 2.2 version of CWM, which i'm sure will work.

Hope this helps someone out there!

[Milestone XT720 General] Aaron520:
I have the Motorola Xt720 that Wind provides, but now i see they have the newer Samsung Nexus S, and i'm considering swapping phones, but should I?

I have looked at the pros and cons, but the 2 phones are better and worse than each other on different fields and to me seem to balance out oddly. like the xt720 has sd card while the SNS doesn't but has a significantly bigger internal memory, which means more apps and stuff, i find that on my moto that i constantly run low in internal memory due to too many apps. SNS runs 2.3 and the xt720 runs 2.1; however, if i root my xt720 i could update it to 2.2 (which i hear is less glitcher than 2.3), but I'd void my warranty. the camera on the xt720 is much better, not sure about the video though. The SNS i see covers more video format though, and seems to have a longer battery life. I find myself having to constantly charge my Motorola if i use it moderately and it easily over-heats which leads to more battery consumption. but that SD card thing for the SNS is the real con for me, i have a few vidoes, but I am heavy on music. But at the same time i want more apps...

So essentially I have 3 choices:

-Keep my xt720 the way it is and get on with life

-Root my Xt720 and upgrade to 2.2 or

-Get the Samsung Nexus S

I'm really confused D': , and would really appreciate help on the subject, also if there is an x-factor that I'm missing (either good or bad) i want to know about it. What do you guys think? oh, and in case anyone was wondering i have the irresistable plan
