Use perm root method. Myself I flashed oneclick in recovery, but you can follow the guide the perm root part.

Btw rom manager supports flashing of the new cwm only. I checked the roms in rom manager they aren't supported. You have to go to the cm7 thread here and download and flash cm7 from recovery.

Just redo root process and install cwm from rom manager. Then go to the dev section and flash your favorite rom in recovery. My sig has directions on how to do everything.

Also if you're having permissions error use root explorer on the rom manager apk make sure it has execute checked. Also I think rom manager has a fix permissions button. Its never worked for me.

S off will allow flashing of cwm. However you need to be rooted to flash cwm threw rom manager. My sig has a guide on installing cwm without being rooted.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RT2023:
Thanks for the QUICK reply, but I looked at the guide, and it stated I have to have recovery installed, BEFORE I do the perm root method, but I dont have recovery, when I do HBOOT, and I try to boot into recovery, I get a red exclamation mark on the screen and I have to end up taking out the battery. Thats why I was wondering if having S OFF from the beginning now is what is messing me up when I am trying to ROOT again, I mean, I am doing the same steps.... just now I get errors when I try to do the TEMP root step... so I cant continue... and I cant get ROM MANAGER to flash a recovery image... is there a guide or steps someplace that can guide me to root the MT4G slide already having S off?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cwest31:
I found the problem myself, I had to enable USB Debugging.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RT2023:
I had USB debugging enabled.... hmmmm you made me doubt myself... I guess I will try it again, since I flashed stock rom again all settings were reverted... so I cannot VERIFY I had USB debugging on, but I was sure I did... I will try again and post... I am reflashing the stock rom like 5 times a days trying to root again =(

wait... cwest31, you had which same problem? because I was writing about 2 problems: about booting into recovery with S off, but no recovery image (hence I got red exclamation mark), and trying to get ROM MANAGER to flash a recovery image on my phone since I have S off already, but I get error messages (problem with permissions)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
Umm...did you read the full instructions very carefully? When you get to the part where you flash the Superuser .zip file, you need to try it several times before it'll hold.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Droidmoder:
What he said.

Also ROM MANAGER WILL NOT WORK UNLESS ROOTED. Get rooted then try flashing the image. The compendium also has step by step guides using terminal emulator once rooted
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Droidmoder:
Also I want you op and the other one to be clear on what s off is and root.

Getting S OFF allows unsigned zips to be flashed. This means you can now flash roms and root. Without s off you cannot root, rom, kernels. S OFF is not root.

Root is gaining admin rights over your phone. this allows programs that require access to the root files to have access to them. ROM Manager, titanium backup, drocap, setcpu will be granted access to the root files and programs which unrooted phones would not be granted access .

This can be a reason why you two are having trouble using rom manager unrooted. Rom manager cannot access the files it needs
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cwest31:
Please go follow this thread ---> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1178606. It tells you how to Permanently root a device that is already s-off.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RT2023:
AWESOME!!! turns out i just had to run revolutionary TWICE, and the second time it figured out it was already rooted and then asked if I wanted to install recovery, I dont know how to do it manually so I clicked yes, and THEN i was able to go into recovery and flash the PERM root ZIP, rebooted and i had SUPERUSER in my app drawer!!!! awesome, now to try to get the version of google talk installed that actually allows for video chat!!! I HATE QIK!!!!!!

DROIDMODER, CWEST31: Thanks so much for the lenghty explanation and help. I have loved android for the ability to customize, and I had the G1, MOTOCLIQ, G2, and now MT4GS, I rooted my G2, but didnt do anything to it because i was scared to F it up, but with the MT4GS I got the balls to do it just because I was SOOOO UPSET that the phone comes with a version of GTALK that does NOT ALLOW FOR VIDEO CHAT!!?!?! WTF!!! whats the front camera for then?! and QIK sucks, not all my friends are on tmobile... i was even more upset when the HTC AMAZE has a version of GTALK that does allow for video chat straight out of the box!!! this is my main push to wanting to root... thanks for letting me vent! lol and thanks for all your great info
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cwest31:
Your welcome! now procead to install undead's senseless ROM (Best Rom available) and also get rom manager and flash the official CWM recovery! Also proceed to "thank."
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RT2023:
mmmm... I tried to install a ROM before and thats what F-ed everything up =/ I am hesitant, I really want a Gtalk version that allows for video chat, does the senseless rom have video gchat capabilities??
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Droidmoder:
Now get rom manager and flash the new clockwork recovery. Once done reboot to recovery and backup.

Revolutionarys older clockwork recovery isn't compatible with our roms and if you flash roms it probably won't install right. Not to mention it has issues.

Now rom manager to my knowledge has no roms that will run on our phone. However you can still use reboot to recovery and flash the new recovery of course.

Read the compendium on how to install roms. If. You follow directions you won't have any issues. It teachs you how to install them from recovery, its easy. Also now that you have a backup of your stock rom you can now always go back to it. Not to mention you can backup other roms and switch them at ease I do that. Cwm does not overwrite backups it creates new ones everytime, which is handy.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RT2023:
I have ClockworkMod 5.0.2.7 thats the latest right?? I also flashed the new SENSELESS rom and the Gchat HAS VIDEO CHAT!!!! LOOOOVE IT!!!!!! I was starting to regret trading my G2 for a new MT4GS through warranty exchange with tmobile... but now... I LOVE IT!!! the launcher and screen looks just like my G2, and I HATED the messaging app on the MT4GS because if I hit enter on the physical keyboard it would start a new line, and on the G2 enter would actually SEND the text which is what I wanted, now ENTER key SENDS the message again... ahhhhhhh... I am in love with my phone again!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Droidmoder:
Yup you have it. Enjoy :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RT2023:
sad to report that I tried to test video chat and got horrible results... =( my friend could no see me and heard me horrible and I was on WIFI... any of you guys tested the gchat video chat on a MT4GS?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Droidmoder:
I haven't but.

I know of yahoo, skype and qik video chat no idea how well they work.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RT2023:
I know about those... but the thing is that:

Yahoo and Skype: are individual services that need their own apps... so it takes up ram to have them open... PLUS your friends have to be signed on at the same time... or else it doesnt work.... (having skype on all the time uses up battery, we know that), same with yahoo...

QIK: few ppl have it because it ONLY works on some phones and only on TMOBILE...

Gchat: works cross platform, so android can video chat to computer, or android to android. And GCHAT is already running on the background all the time, even when ppl sign on their gmail from computer... so its def the best way to go... BUT only if it works!!! lol... I guess I can re install qik too and have both... but I just wanted to give you my point of view why Gchat is the better choice.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cwest31:
thats why u shuld create a back up of your stock rom!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RT2023:
no no... I think you are mistaken.. I DONT WANT stock ROM because the stock rom that has gchat... has video chat DISABLED!!!! and plus the qik app can also be downloaded from the market so I can add it to the senseless rom I just started running... by the way, since you guys said senseless is awesome... I see the that the SYNC icon is on WAYYYYY too much on the status bar... much longer than before, you guys noticed that??? I am affraid that this means its going to be a battery hog
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cwest31:
Always create a back up of stock just incase tho.

Sent From Senseless MyTouch 4G Slide !
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RT2023:
I did!!! plus I also put the ZIP file of the STOCK ROM from tmobile on a spare 1gb micro SD card... so worst come to worst... I just apply that update on HBOOT and BAM!!! back to stock ready for warranty exchange!!! lol.. but hey, since you are also using senseless, does your syncing icon show up more than usual on the status BAR?
[TouchPad General] Carpetman:

I'm really hoping for an AT&T version. If there is no subsidized version, then I may buy the iPhone with my upgrade, sell it, and import a Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] e-dub:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mycomputerisjunk:
Wow, $770 a bit much for me. Might just switch back to the skyrocket for now instead of jumping on this bandwagon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deleted member 2842059:
AT&T, assuming I decide to bite. Price is a bit steep at this point.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slowz3r:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
+1 I am buying a GN from RadioShack or BestBuy or something of the sorts unlocked.

HOPEFULLY they have it for Black Friday. Not for a deal cause there wont be but to be able to buy it while I'm out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oka1:
Let us know if you can get 4 g or 3 g out of the box. This Is the one thing most of us on TMO will REALLY want to know

Thanks..........
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
lol.... I can tell you right now you'll get "4G" just fine. Its pentaband HSPA+ man.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tvp2411:
im glad theres hspa+!!! the best phone for tmobile right now with 4g
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justabrake:
I have one pre-ordered unlocked for AT&T

If this works out like my SGS2 did :mad:, I'll keep it till an iphone 5 comes out and never will I come back to android again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] POQbum:
VZW with an early upgrade. About time they got a Nexus phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rainman353:
Verizon off contract, that's assuming that they ever decide to release the phone and don't pull another Thunderbolt. Although maybe they should have waited longer on the Thunderbolt. Hoping this isn't a bad sign for the GN.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chaosjh:
Just curious, even if it still has a 3.5" screen and/or no lte?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Where does this come from?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
huh? what the heck are you talking about lol

edit: nvm. I get it....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qipengart:
T-Mobile or Sprint for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
He probably making a crack on apple.

I invented cyberspace. You're trespassing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ruthlesset:
It does have 3.5" screen that is holographically projected to a bigger 4.65" screen :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sdc177:
Sprint if its not obsolete by the time they have it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OctoPI:
Changing from T-Mo to Verizon as soon as the phone comes out. With company discounts, the bill will be cheaper than on T-Mo and hopefully less dead zones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chaosjh:
right...but seriously, to anybody that is going back to or staying on apple. are you going to if it's still a small screen? i am genuinely curious.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] onthecouchagain:
Just curious, how much discount does your company give for you on Veriz? For me, it's 23% (such an odd number) versus 15% for Tmobile. Tmobile is still cheaper for me (by nearly 40 dollars after all is said and done thanks to grandfathered data plans).

I'm wondering if your company's Veriz discount is higher?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justabrake:
truthfully I forgot about the 3.5 screen That is a disappointment but they do make a well oiled device where as everything syncs very well and runs excellent, I'm a google person when using email and chrome browser I even have a google chrome netbook they gave me for free, :p

I'm just hopping that this syncs everything and is not like the SGS2 which in my opinion has all the hardware but hasn't a well balanced combination together.

If I do go back after this I'll accept the screen size if this google phone disappoints me.

I just want a device that works together with it's OS
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chaosjh:
android has made many mistakes (OS that use to require installation on internal memory in which all phones only had like 200mb...WTF?!) but they have come up by leaps and bounds. is ios smooth? oh hell yeah! and that screen...gorgeous! fact is, ics will probably not be the ios killer (sadly) but google gives you what apple messed up on. options. one of those options now (or soon rather) is a bigger screen that barely sacrifices ppi. so now i'm curious about all the ilovers and what they think, simply because a lot of iphoners complain about 1 of 2 things, screen size (don't matter? try it...) and LTE (which apple cannot seem to get working with thier ios).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Why do people say 3.5 inch screen?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chaosjh:
because that is the size of all the iphones...

would you prefer 3 1/2"?

in that case would you prefer 4 13/20" screen of the gnexus?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
I thought they were talking bout the GN size being 3.5 I was obviously mistaken Lol

Sorry. No I just thought u guys meant GN size 3.5
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OctoPI:
It's 18% off for VZW off monthly and 14% off on AT&T. Sadly no T-mo discount.

The phone price also has a discount of about 10-15%.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BrokenWall:
I am thinking about switching to verizon, I have an old Unlimited Data plan that T-Mobile apparently started throttling all old plans without a firm notice to customers. (since its listed as unlimited and not by speed, then they wont let me out free of ETF) but I am getting anywhere between 20-70Kbps on my Sensation in downtown Atlanta. most of the time it is so slow that I loose my connection and time out.

So we are thinking about switching to verizon. But if anyone can post a link to the T-Mobile version for import it would be greatly appreciated just incase i stay with them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Just go into the prices & pre-orders thread. dozens of pages on this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tvp2411:
same thing for me, i get 25% off of vzw and 15% off for tmobile. After said and done, tmobile is still 60 dollars cheaper then vzw. The problem with vzw discount, they only discount primary line. While tmobile discount the whole bill.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TiltedAz:
TMO: we get 15% off monthly charges, waived activation fee, device discounts.

VZN: we get 15% off monthly voice and data and 22% off equipment/access.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chirality:
We have 21% off Verizon and 21% off AT&T, but nothing for T-Mobile as far as I know. I couldn't even find a page on T-Mobile's corporate discount program. Anyone have links?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
Its better to call them.

I invented cyberspace. You're trespassing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Drzfr3shboialex:
I really think tmobile for 2 factors tmobile always got it and b/c their version supports att bands and the GSM Galaxy Nexus supports all.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] onthecouchagain:
Ditto here with my company. Damn Verizon... I feel like they really nickel and dime customers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I think my work has 15% on Verizon. It may be 20%, not sure. 15% off AT&T. 15% T-Mobile.

I would actually move to Verizon for the GN if they had the unlimited option or I could find a unlimited line to take over. I've got unlimited on AT&T but the recent LTE expansion is just depressing and I'm starting to believe AT&T is going to half ass LTE just like everything else. The freedom I gain using GSM, phone hopping like a cheap whore, will evaporate once overseas start using LTE as well. After looking at the staggering amount of phones I've used this year, sold and resold, I've always returned to two mainstays: The Nexus S and an iPhone 4.

Hey guys, I just switched from Sprint to ATT and picked up the Inspire 4g today for free! Im having trouble rooting it. Ive read all I can find and I am downloading the aahk hack kit. when I attempt to open or unzip the downloaded folder I get an error stating "the compressed folder is invalid" I have tried to redownload and get the same error. It wont even let me start the process. Please forgive me if I am an idiot and im missing something easy. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] Pirateghost:
just to verify, you are downloading the ace hack kit to your computer right?

you dont actually use it on the phone itself.

also, if you are using download managers (not like the built in firefox one, but add-ons), those can play hell with downloads like this
[HTC Inspire 4G] capathy21:
yes i am using my computer. Im downloading it using google chrome could that be why?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Pirateghost:
nope. i have never had any problems downloading it with chrome. i use chrome exclusively.

sounds like your file never finishes the actual download.

how are you trying to unzip it?

miui stuff only works on miui unless stated to work on other roms

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RiceMaster:
Hi everyone,

I have noticed that my when my wifi is on, phone drains much less battery. Does that just simply implies that my phone service provider sucks with bad signal quality? Or anyone have any insights on this problem?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ImWarped:
Not at all, and attributing wifi being on as "improving" your battery life may be a faulty assumption... your drain looks fairly good? its just the awake time that is draining it, would likely have little to no difference on if your on WiFi or not. Looks really good to me LOL I wouldn't be able to get 20 hours on a single charge the way I use mine!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vishaljain:
Well, I beg to differ. I am on 2.3.5 and for me also the drain is significantly less if I leave the phone on wifi. I think its because when you are on the network, there is a periodic ping to the tower and also as the signal quality keeps changing depending on the load on the tower you are hooked to, it keeps downgrading/upgrading between H+ and EDGE. I may be completely wrong but I think you always save on wifi so long as we have pethatic network operators.

Thanks,

Vishal

I wish to express my thanks to Marcusant and the whole team at ACS for all their hard work in developing new roms for the Samsung Epic 4G, and their fast response on updates when an issue is found.

I am unable to post in Marcusant's actual rom thread because it says I do not have enough posts to post in development, so please allow me to post my thanks here!

The new ICS V3.5 is awesome! No issues found so far, and MMS and GPS are working great!
