Well, I wouldnt recommend doing a sprint update either. That will cause you to lose root most likely. The only way then to keep root is wait until we get a dump of the update and then cook a rom that includes root, in which case you would need to flash the recovery image. Updates usually fix the exploits we use to gain root.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thecodemonk:
What he said...but yes, at the steps you quoted, mobilehavoc, you are capable of root access (you don't actually have it until you run that "su" command ;) ). That allows you to read and modify otherwise locked away files and tweak to your hearts content!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Grinder16:
Ive rooted and played around some but very little and followed everyones instructions very closely ( thank you for teaching a newbie ). Now how do I go back to original state that I backed up ( think I did ).

When I press the power and volume down button I get to the droid on skateboard, then I press the Home for recovery. I get the screen with all the options and I go to nandroid v2.2 restore and press trackball. It says restore latest backup press home to confirm. I do that and get the following error

Error : run 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' via console.

What does this mean? Do i have to be tethered to PC and run this command from cmd prompt?

I am now lost again, any help is appreciated
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thecodemonk:
Just to confirm since it wasn't mentioned, you did a Nandroid backup earlier right? can you confirm that there's a folder on your sdcard called "nandroid"?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Grinder16:
Dont see that folder - I guess that is not good. Any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theresthatguy:
You must do a backup BEFORE you can do a restore..
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
To clarify for everyone, here's a breakdown of the steps:

adb push /directory_you_placed_asroot2/asroot2 /data/local/

This copies the asroot2 program to the /data/local folder on your phone.

adb shell

This logs you into the phone. From here on out, you are no longer executing Windows commands from a DOS shell - you are actually executing Linux commands on the phone.

chmod 0755 /data/local/asroot2

This changes the permissions on the asroot2 program so that it can be executed.

/data/local/asroot2 /system/bin/sh

This actually runs the root exploit and creates a file called /system/bin/sh that we will later turn into su.

mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

This unmounts the /system partition and remounts it as writeable.

cd /system/bin

This puts you into the /system/bin folder.

cat sh > su

This creates the su program.

chmod 4755 su

This changes the persmissions on the su file to allow it to be executed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Grinder16:
I thought I had. What are the steps? I have a flash recovery image on my SD card. I have followed all instructions that I could find
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
Boot to the recovery image then select "nandroid backup"
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Grinder16:
Can you provide those steps? Sorry but complete newbie here
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jonnythan:
"I get the screen with all the options and I go to nandroid v2.2 restore and press trackball. It says restore latest backup press home to confirm. I do that and get the following error"

Go there but select Backup instead of Restore.

Turn the phone off, hold the Home key, and turn it on. When you get to the screen with the green text select nandroid backup.

I am the recent owner of a Verizon HTC Imagio.

It is running WM 6.5 Build 21849.

From what I've been reading on the web, there are much newer ROMs available with better features (such as the ability to re-arrange home screen icons).

I search around on here but I couldn't find any downloads for the Imagio.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

There are no ROMs for the Imagio yet. Please check out the Whitestone section of XDA and the Imagio forum on PPCGeeks.

Hi i love all the themes and mods on here. I keep trying them all.

One question though?

How do i remove what i install. At the moment i`m having ro reinstall my MCR everytime i want to go back to how my phone was before. :confused:
[Android Themes] FormelLMS:
If you make an Update of MCR, the Theme ist still original.

You must du nothing else.
[Android Themes] johnboywilson:
Ok, only thing is i dont have an update file on there. I wiped my memory card last night and i cant remember how i got the update zip on there or where from.
[Android Themes] kendong2:
go to modaco and download it again?
[Android Themes] johnboywilson:
i`m getting confused here. My phone is rooted, and i have the modded custom recovery image on there. But i dont have an update zip file on my sd card. Like i say i have to reinstall the MCR 2.9 zip file to remove the modded themes im installing.

Do i need the update file on my sd card?

Is this all i need to do to install the original theme?
[Android Themes] FormelLMS:
There are two Ways to get the original Theme:

First and easiest ist to reload the MoDaCo Rom from this Page an copy that to your SD Card and Install it new. Then you have the original Theme.

Second is to look here in this Forum. In one Theme Thread is a Download Link for the Original Theme.

First way is the easiest way.
[Android Themes] kendong2:
just install the mcr as you did before, if you deleted the update.zip you need to copy it again to your sdcard like you did before. just make sure you use the same rom as before, then everything will be as before.
[Android Themes] johnboywilson:
Right so what your all saying is reload my Modaco Rom again.

Thats the best way then?

Well its the way ive been doing it anyway.

Hoped there was an easier or quicker way.

Thanks everyone for your advice and help.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henky92:
hey guys!

I was wondering if I could scroll vertically through apps, like on the iPhone.

Instead of the horizontal up and down which I really hate.

THanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] callummr:
I believe you don't know your up and down from your left and right.

Vertical scrolling is up and down. That's what you already have on your Hero.

The only way to mimic the iPhone's horizontal scrolling that I know of would be to create shortcuts to as many as you can on your home screens.

You might give MIDPSSH a shot. Java based SSH client. It's a bit finicky, but once you get used to it, you have all special keys available quickly.

Key is to open the Menu once you are connected and have the prompt, then go to menu>type to type right on the prompt (or hit INPUT and type in a new screen, not sure why it was designed like that). There are also all special keys there for tapping (when using the MENU). if the text is too small, go to SETTINGS and change the font size from "tiny" to "device".

In the above link, ull find sort of a community for it, and cooked ROMs up to 6.5,

the site is in russian, u can use google translate, and its self explanatory, subscribing however is tricky, the captcha system is not copying the exact things u see, its an addition formula, for example u get 32ппюс56равно , this means 32+56= here u need to put 88(ппюс is +, равно is =).

As for the ROMs i dont know if they made them in english or russian, ull have to check it for urself.

[Android Software Development] tep065:
:) was going to start a thread to put the link for the source code, but since you already have it, i'll put the link here for other people to stumble across.

https://opensource.motorola.com/sf/frs/do/viewSummary/projects.cliqdext/frs

I'm not to familiar with linux or source codes and such. But someone had mentioned in another forum I came across that the source code may have a clue about gaining root. Maybe its in how the programing would interact with the SPL? Does the O/S need some kind of permission from the SPL to run with the hardware? It is the SPL that is blocking/locking down root right? So if the OS needs ROOT to be able to run, then shouldn't there be some code in the source that ask's the SPL for permission for root? And if so, once we have that lil' bit o' code, it can be ran via a script and/or ADB? Like trick the SPL into thinking its the O/S asking for ROOT?

state of the root address, AFAIK

A guy has an image the equivalent of the dreamimg.nbh used to root g1s recovery mode looks for this file and will apply it if found automaticly.

He said its rooted and ready to run, the difference is with the g1 we had the developer keyset which we replaced the original one on that came with our phones so they would ignore OTA updates (since the keys don't match) and so they would take updates that are signed with the PUBICLY available keyset the OTA keyset we don't have...

So to get to the problem, the rooted update can't be applied unless the "moto keyset" gets leaked or a developers keyset exists and it is possible to change it with the secured version of fastboot, which it seems is also the reason goldcard exploits (and others) didn't work.

Does Moto offer a "developers" cliq? Id assume not or we would have the keyset, but I dunno if the keyset is unavailable or if there is a problem in using the key to sign the package?

Anyway that's how I see it with all the searching I've done about this topic, I would also give up all the blurbloat for a stock cyanogen googglyfone.

reroot your cliq, defang the moto update.zip by removing recovery.img and boot.img from the zip file before flashing, all worries should be gone.

I say skip it and wait. The extra RAM is kind of useless when the phone hasn't even been rooted yet, and initial reviews of the device are rather lukewarm. The battery life is also lower than that of the G1. In most ways it's an upgrade (assuming the Cliq gets rooted soon) but it's not worth the upgrade from the G1 IMO. Get a Droid if you can afford that nasty Verizon plan, or wait. :)

Windows Live is an application. When you first start it up, you will be guided through a brief setup process where you enter in your details. At one point, you can select whether you want to sync your email.

If you don’t have the app or it doesn’t ask you about your email, grab the latest Windows Live app from Marketplace.

An alternative is to configure your email account setup
