Update on the root problem I was having using Bluntman's method.

After many hours trying to find any possible answers to the problem online- and failing miserably- I finally got root by adding this one step:

After completing the steps spelled out by Bluntman, if you get the"Enjoy!" message and still aren't rooted start over from the beginning. Re-copy the update.zip to your SD card, as well, rather than assuming you don't have to. (After each failed attempt for me, the package on the card came up as corrupted when I checked it with JZip.)

Then, while still in the fastboot recovery screen, navigate to "Fix Permissions," and enter.

Once that's done, reboot. If you see Superuser on your launch screen, you're rooted, though I double-checked root access with RootCheck from the Market/Play Store. Now to back-up and start monkeying! Thanks, Blunt.

fastboot questions

Hi Bluntman, thanks a mil for posting your method. Ever since I got the N762 I have been searching for a way to get the crapware off it and get the most out of the phone.

I'm having trouble making it work, however. Fastboot sticks at <waiting for device...>, which I've read usually mean a driver issue. I've tried the Google driver, the one that comes on the phone itself, and a third ZTE driver I found on another forum, but it's always the same result.

Any thoughts? :confused:
[General Questions and Answers] AJohannes:
Hey Rellio, did you get your fastboot problem solved?

I'd had similar difficulties getting fastboot to work, and eventually uninstalled the ZTE drivers from the computer, reset the phone and then re-installed the drivers.

That got it back on track for me.
[General Questions and Answers] bluntman420:
Hey sorry i havent been following this thread, but it does sound like a driver issue so you should do as AJohannes suggests. Also use a usb port in the back of your computer instead of the front.
[General Questions and Answers] rellio1:
Thanks Ajohannes, bluntman,

Just to make sure, and forgive my ignorance, but by reset do you mean factory reset, and wipe the thing (after backing up of course)?

I'm game, and happy to give that a try, but want to know if that's necessary or if there is something milder that you had in mind.

Clockwork Made easy for B06/B05

check your phones.... go to settings about phone and then look at the name of your rom all the way at the bottom... if you have a B06, there is a one step install for clockworkmod i have created called clockwork easy. It is very easy to install however it is DEADLY to newer b08 models. but rest assured it is tested and very safe for b06 and b05 models.

h88ttp://ww88w.4shar88ed.co88m/rar/2G1LKQZw/n762_clock88workmod_easy.ht88ml

copy the image folder to your sd card. After that, go to settings>about phone>system update and let clockworkmodeasy do its magic.... there you just skiped all the command prompt steps. now you can root or install a whole new rom using clockwork recovery!! remember to do a backup before doing any further steps and again, IF YOU HAVE A B08 DO NOT USE THIS!

I'm working on b08 version... wont be long... gotta test it.

take the 88s out of the link so it works..

I've made some some back to stock roms for the n762 however i had to jury-rig the spleshg.img because i could not pull it from the phone... does anyone know how i could pull the original spleshg.img from the n762 using fastboot so that i could make them perfect... i will post them afterwards.

OK, so first off let me say that i know we are kindof in the wrong thread but us umx max owners a far and few between (at least the ones trying to obtain root) so with that said i have successfully obtained a usb driver through installing pda net in Windows, and also i have been able to use the ADB interface in windows with this pda net driver. i tried to manually root the device via adb but at the last step it threw the error

"failed to set prot mask (inappropriate ioctl for device)"

i followed the manually rooting instructions, (i cant post links yet sooooooooooo......... google "manualy rooting android" its at pocketables dot com how-to-manually-root-almost-any-android-device

basically tried every one click pc based rooting application. and the z4root apk. nada. no root.

HELLO WORLD!

I and the rest of every one who has these stupid damn umx max phones NEED a method to root from this point on.

With my provided info we have a usb driver, we have adb, now we need...............? to obtain permanent or temp. root ( im really not too picky at this point) thanks.:confused:

I've had absolutely no luck upgrading from KD1 to offiical GB.

I started off with the official KD1 (from Kies) that I have been running for months.

The only mods are root and CWM.Kies downloads the GB update (taking several minutes) then immediately comes up with the screen saying my phone could not be updated. It leaves the phone in download mode.

If I reboot I'm back to where I was.

Taking a suggestion in another thread, I cleared data and cache, and tried again.

Same result.

Taking another suggestion, I Odin'd another KD1 on top of my original. Same result.

Taking another suggestion, I Odin'd a KC1 on top hoping that Kies would upgrade me to official KD1 or GB. However, Kies took one look and said there was no upgrade.

I've Odin'd back to KD1, so after a lot of work I'm back to where I started.

Any ideas?

Stupid question,

Can I flash Raver's ROM directly from Bionix Frost or do I need to go back to a KD1 ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] cnote74:
First you would need gingerbread bootloaders if you have them then flash away, if not you will need to odin kg4 for the bootloaders then drhonks kernel for root then flash kj6 from cwm.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] kmandel:
I probably will, but I also would like to find out why I can't Kies the stock GB Rom. Obviously Kies doesn't like something it sees on the phone.

There is another issue I'm fighting at the same time. Until now I didn't have a data plan and just used wifi for data. I just got a data plan and haven't been able to get the phone to use it (just voice/text). I want to put the phone into a completely stock condition to try and eliminate variables, and possibly get T-mobile to help. I also feel that what ever Kies doesn't like might be a factor with the cell data issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] htaak:
Kies is potentially bad news for your phone if you've been on a custom ROM. If it doesn't work smoothly on the first try don't try and force it. What inevitably happens is that in a sudden rush to get it to work you start flashing one ROM after another (something you wouldn't normally do) and end up issues. There have been a bunch of posts about losing recovery and download modes as people start trying to flash back to froyo from GB. A buddy of mine just jacked his phone up so bad doing this...no recovery, no download, couldn't get it to adb boot on his Linux box. I finally got it into download mode with an adb/odin circus trick, hail Mary, and odined ravers hawk.zip to clean everything up. There is no way i want to go through that again, and there is no real logic in the way we fixed it, but it all started with a bad flash from kies. To any one reading this, USE THE CWM FLASHABLE THAT RAVER MADE IN THE DEV FORUM, take advantage of their knowledge and hard work and save yourself (and your sgs4g) some heartache.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archer:
It's got nothing to do with whether it's unlocked or not - that doesn't show until you put a SIM from another provider in. It will either ask for an unlock code or just work.

As for updates, if it's the official stock ROM then, as above, download Kies (from Samsung - Google will find it no problem) and that will tell you if there's an update. It all depends on your provider.

The alternative, if you're after getting newer firmware, is to look at the official firmware threads (you can get them from the xda bookmarks link in my sig). If you then want to unlock it then try this app - it worked for me...

Best way to use CM7 is off your internal memory.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hangman_:
But the question now is, do you want to upset your stock OS or not?

Or is there a new way to install CM7 on your eMMC without interupting the stock OS?

My NC is still under warranty so I don't want to take the stock OS off yet, although I am very tempted to trade places, putting my stock OS on the SD card and CM7 (as I use it so much more) on the eMMC.

If you don't want to touch the stock OS yet, the sandisk is optimal for these units.
