I am on the same plate as you. Buy chineese SimUnlocker for $3 from dealextreme.com

That is what I use for 4 month so far otherwise sadly even for £20 Orange UK is not able to get proper unlock code from HTC. (I paid Orange in January and still waiting for a proper working unlock code)
[Click Android Development] liqn7:
Thanks iliko. Is this a complete workaround though for all networks?

I've read some positive experiences with the isim 2008 unlocker for people using the O2 network, but someone else on vodafone could only access his contacts (but no network access)

All features are enabled?

If so, then once you flash it and get rid of the horrible orange apps, it should be good as new?

cheers:)

hi,

im having trouble rooting my tattoo, i used the root + recovery 1 click root and it all seemed to work fine but when i try and use setCPU it says that root is not found.

Is there anyway to check whethers it actually been rooted?
[Click Android Development] lukic:
Install Better Terminal Emulator from the Market.

Start it and type su

If you get # in the next line then it is rooted.

Here is the picture:
[Click Android Development] dominico1234:
Thanks alot,

I did this and it said permission denied on the terminal so obviously the root didnt work before. So i tried again and it still didnt work.

Here is a screenshot of the first rooting screen, it says cannot open 'bin/m7' at one point could this be the problem?

I would b very grateful if somebody could help me out. Thanks

EDIT: Managed to fix the problem, my antivirus was interfering with the m7 file. I did stop my antivirus b4 when i used the roottattoo.bat but this time i stoppped it even b4 i downloaded the file and it seemed to work
[Click Android Development] iliko:
There are many types of iSim cards some probably does not work as others. Mine works as charm and after rooting and flashing it is like brand new one. But I still do not know how to unlock it and hope someone here may know but cannot see anyone knows it.

With this recovery we can user directly the update-script from another rom ? Hero rom for example

[Click Android Development] Zecanilis:
LOL.....

Why did you root it then? :confused:
[Click Android Development] butterfan7:
i root it because it stated that some 3rd party application need root access...
[Click Android Development] Zecanilis:
So, has you say, now you have root access for that applications.

[Click Android Development] liqn7:
Hey guys,

I've got root (as confirmed by # symbol after I type adb shell su) with the 1click rooting program from the opening post.

However, all the programs which require root acces which I've run (superuser permissions, droid wall etc..) are all hanging with a blank SU request screen.

So where to from here? Should I try re-rooting it again?

USB debug has been enabled and the individual apps caches have been cleared too but to no avail.

Edit: Error message from Droid Wall- "Could not acquire root access. You need a rooted phone to run droid wall. If this phone is already rooted please make sure Droid Wall has enough permissions to execute the "su" command."

Thanks in advance.

Hi Guys,

i have a tattoo and only want to root it, and not install roms. Should i still make a goldcard?
[Click Android Development] dejandekic:
Please read before posting. Every question is already answered, you just need to search and read.
[Click Android Development] phiber123:
Actually, this thread is very ambiguous when it come to this topic. All I need is to know does a goldcard only back up the current rom for reloading and not make a difference if your run the root only app provided.

The Forum is huge and i have spent about 2 hours reading, and haven't really felt like i have got a straight answer from any of the threads, and still feel unsure exactly what i must do. If there is a good chance of the rooting going wrong and a gold card is needed, i am gonna give it a skip, as the goldcard just seems like too much of a mission.
[Click Android Development] coolbits:
With custom recovery flashed, there is no need for a goldcard... but stiil it's nothing wrong if you make it.
[Click Android Development] dexxter_sat:
Still no idea about my case up there? After "1 click root" I get no root in device terminal, only in adb shell. But after pushing manually su to /data/local/bin I get # in device terminal also, but still no root permissions?!
[Click Android Development] coolbits:
# means root
[Click Android Development] dexxter_sat:
I know, but when I type "su" I get "#", however still no root permissions:

$ su

#

# id

# uid=10105(app_105)

Shouldn't I get uid=0? Applications that require root are not working...
[Click Android Development] coolbits:
From adb you get uid=0 and if apps work there is no problem...

Just flash custom boot and recovery images and youre done.
[Click Android Development] dexxter_sat:
I do get uid=0 in adb but applications that require root are not working on Tattoo.

For example: when I type "reboot" in adb - Tattoo restarts, but when I type "reboot" in Tattoo's Terminal Emulator I get "not permited!"

Fake root?! :confused::D
[Click Android Development] coolbits:
Wrong su file or not chmoded... try again.
[Click Android Development] dexxter_sat:
Have tried dozens of times... several different PC's, cables... weird :(
[Click Android Development] dejandekic:
Same with mine Tattoo :(

But I have used one-click process exactly as stated in this thread, what is wrong then?

From PC (Ubuntu 9.10) through adb I get root (uid=0), but in Better terminal emulator on Tattoo, I never get uid=0 :confused:
[Click Android Development] Musenkishi:
Hi!

Seems like I have root on my tattoo as I see # in adb shell... but I think I saw some error when it installed the custom recovery image and I can't seem to get access to it.

If I press home + power/hang up then my tattoo freezes on the "HTC Tattoo"-logo.

When I try to install recovery again with RecoveryTattoo.bat it just says that the header is fine and won't overwrite. What should I do?

EDIT: Tried to reflash recovery.img with:

# cd /data/local/bin
# ./flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery1click.img (recovery.img from rtattoo\sdcard)

with no luck. I get the message:

after i root my tatto and installed custom image i also installed a custom rom (0.5.3 from fyodor) and when i try to make a reboot in the better terminal app it gives me the error "not permitted!"

I've read from 1st post till last post but still have confuse.Does RecoveryTatto.bat make Backup Original Rom in my Tattoo or I have to use Nandroid? (This means if I need to come back for using Rom that came with Tattoo,I can use recovery from this backup.,right)
[Click Android Development] sucka:
Flawlessly working, great work, you made this job to be instantly made. Good luck and if any help needed just ask.
[Click Android Development] VRmagician:
After I've worked around 60-90 minutes,Finally I can access Recovery Page with RecoveryTattoo.bat.;)

First,I stucked as r1sk and I couldn't go anywhere or press anybutton.

The only thing,I can do is the method of coolbits,then this make my Tattoo can boot again.

I thought I'd make something wrong such as I chose 'Disk drive' instead of 'HTC Sync'.After I change to 'HTC Sync' and RecoveryTatto again,Now everything's fine till my Tatoo boot and I can access to Recovery Mode.:)

I can Backup with Nandroid and it's successfully.

Help for Linux-users

Hi!

I'm reading your post about rooting the Tattoo, but I'm Linux suer (I don't have any Windows installed) and I can't use your scripts.

I read and understood you BAT scripts, but they need to use always a Windows-exec called "auto-fase2.exe". What actions does this script? I can reproduce the rest of the script in a Linux shell, but this executable is something unknown for me.

Thanks for the help :)

hello ppl, when a i try to root1click a have this issue:

Unable to chmod /data/local/bin/su: Operation not permitted i know that already ppl have this issue, but i´ve try everything and doesn´t work, change the SD card, reboot PC an PDA, my ROM version is the 1.67.405.6 / 2.6.29-gf922713, i´ve disable the firewall and the nod32.....

P.S. - I´ve already root the device earlier trought m7 newbie guide, i dont know if matters. sorry my english

any clue?!?! tks :-)
[Click Android Development] nhutier:
I haven't to chmod the su file... it worked fine for me without that. But you have to install the tattoo-hack.ko and mount your system partition before trying to flash the recovery image.

I hacked it yesterday from my iMac. Worked all fine. I also tried the Windows version but it didn't worked at all. It always said "device not found". Don't know why.

1. Get root

2. chmod 755 /data/local/bin/* (here you will get your permission denied on su error)

3. Get su

4. insmod /data/local/bin/tattoo-hack.ko

5. remount your system partition to be writeable

6. .flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

7. reboot recovery

That worked for me.
[Click Android Development] benzo:
before rooting my tattoo (no-brand), i must create a gold card?

Failed to copy sdcard/su to sdcard/su

After putting all sdcard files to sdcard w/o dir (locaed it f:\su f:\boot.img f:\recovery.img) I get error: unable to open sdcard/recovery.img

reboot recovery - and it reboots.

But when it starts, shows something like theres error, and nothing opens....
[Click Android Development] TheSSJ:
Okay, if you have the files on your sd card now, make sure HTC didn't unmount your sd to show it in windows. Also you have to make sure that you have the binary flash_image. If both is okay, you have to connect your phone via adb to your PC (DON'T MOUNT THE SD CARD, make sure it's still accessible on your phone) and open a shell...

1. adb shell

2. $ su

3. # flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

4. # flash_image boot /sdcard/boot.img

Su file should already be located either in /data/local/bin or /system/bin
[Click Android Development] Ihaveatattoo:
Hi guys

I am JUST about rooting my tattoo, but what is the risks? And can i reverse the operation so the phone will be just as i bought it (using the rooting program)?

And seriously, shall one be VERY stupid to brick the phone or is it "usual"?

You see, 350 buck is not cheap..
[Click Android Development] sleepymonk:
ok rooted my phone using the 1click method and everything went great however ive had experience rooting phones before (G1,Hero And Touch).

As for reversing that can be done be installing a offical rom...for example for me to unroot i just flash the lastest update for orange from htc website.

As for bricking phone i personally never had experience with it but i know people who have and most times they couldnt be bothered to follow the instructions or didnt understand what todo or decided to miss a step of 2...

The rule of thumb for me if you dont understand dont do it...
[Click Android Development] Ihaveatattoo:
Thanks, but can i flash it with the same ROM that is on the phone now (stock) or shall i download one of these on rapidshare (RUU_Click_HTC_WWE_1.67.405.6_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver.exe)? My ROM includes Dansih. Like make a backup of the stock ROM?

Just want to be sure wether it can be 100% the same phone even if it is danish.

And another (maybe newbie) question, does the Cyanogen ROMs work for tattoo?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pimpmasters:
I would like to tether my phone to my work comp so I can use my work keyboard/mouse/screen rather than my phone to do browsing. I am able to connect it but is there a way to direct only traffic from, say firefox, to the phone connection and let the rest of my net traffic be handled by the nic on the lan?

I don't have the networking expertise to figure this one out and I haven't been able to find it with searches. I probably don't know the right terminology to search for.

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dicko99:
This is going to be difficult to do unless you know the specific IP addresses or networks you wish to access via the LAN interface.

If you do then you can move the default gateway on to the interface to your phone and then add static routes for the addresses you want to go via the LAN interface.

This is done by using the route command in a cmd window.

R.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pimpmasters:
thanks for the reply. I figured it had to be more difficult than it seemed on the surface.

so, based on what you have said, would i be able to do the opposite? where i could build a routing table for each specific site's ip that i want to have my browser be directed to my phone for? if possible that would be adequate. what do you think?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pimpmasters:
Any other ideas? I guess I'll try and read up on the route command and see how I might be able to use it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rorytmeadows:

It's really more of a case of trying to figure out if it can be done and how. Also some curiosity and the desire to learn more. Unfortunately, I'm not that knowledgeable regarding network intricacies and routing but thought some folks here might have the info and could help me figure it out.

OK my UK Voda Magic was running with a few faults on CM4.2.14 so I decided to wipe and reflash with CM 4.2.15.1 so I wiped data, cache, re partitioned through CM recovery with default settings 32mb swap, 512 ext and rest for fat32.

Now my problem is the market, i think!!!

So i installed a few apps, reboot the phone and the apps are no longer installed in the menu, but installed in the market and the option to uninstall greyed out. If they stay installed they force close on opening. After a few wipes and reflash i have some sort of pattern

On a fresh wipe and rom it is like the market has not synced properly, as the tab to view paid apps is not present. Anything i install at this moment will have problems. The downloads tab is blank ie none of my paid apps are listed.

After lots of reboots the market appeared to be functioning properly but for no apparent reason or nothing i have done to help!!. Any apps i install at this point work properly. So problem solved.

Now not convinced i have a clean install i started again so am back at step one with a market only partially functioning, i dont want to install any apps until its back working properly.

So can anyone fill in the blanks

How do i get the full market back??

Is there a problem in my process of wiping and flashing rom?

I have tried the vending database renew scripts tried the gtalk on/off issue and am now going CRAZZY!

What am i missing!!!

I know this is asking for opinions on what roms are the best... however, I have used several different ones, be it 1.5 / 1.6 or even 2.0+ .. I'm wanting to find out if there are any other big emulator gamers (for SNES / NES / GBA) that have found something that has the basics for the phone but primarily focus on the 3D/2D graphics of the phone.

Currently im using the CE 1.2 update (Eclair 2.0) and I'm still noticing a few hitches every now and then and sound lag when playing Snesoid (paid version).

JIT is reversible, so don't worry about having to reflash and whatnot.
[G1 General] Kainzo:
I have JIT enabled now, I'm not noticing any improvement on the SNESoid itself, though the phone does respond faster.

I may try out Super D and see if the smoothness will work with the ROM... it feels like the phone is hitting a hardware limit not necessarily software enforced.

When there are several things going on in the screen, ie a lot of moving pixels / characters, it hitches up pretty bad and the sound itself goes crazy / lags.
