Once the proper eng image is loaded, you should be able through terminal, busybox, or adb. Of course it is possible that the eng image may only flash via gold card. I would assume it would depend on the way they find the root exploit. So really... no one knows yet for sure.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] r0adki111:
no ideas from me at the moment but just checking in to keep up with this thread and the rooting one. good luck :D
[myTouch 3G Slide General] goodwinm:
possible idea

The ShootMe app is able to take screenshots without root access. Does it take advantage of any security holes that could possibly be used?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] jordanjf86:
This "Root only" app does work I just tried it on mine.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] cidica:
Yeah odd it works on mine also....
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sino8r:
Will someone with a Twitter account let the devs know?

[myTouch 3G Slide General] turboyo:
NICE find, Funny thing is shootme was my screen shot app on my rooted G1. I had put it on the slide but uninstalled w/o even trying.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] cidica:
I just shot them all a msg on twitter about it
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sino8r:
Thanks! I been searching for an app that uses root that fully works. May be this is one that will make the difference. I'd hate to have to wait on an update that might not come for months...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] jordanjf86:
I tried the Cache mate and over clock widget apps to see if they would do anything no go with both. How exactly is screen shot app executed differently than an over clock app or cache cleaning app? Perhaps there is a hole in there somewhere that could be used......
[myTouch 3G Slide General] cidica:
Yeah I was on the phone with Tmo today and no one knew anything about an update anytime soon which does not surprise me in the least. But yeah if this can help get us root sooner I'd love it.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sino8r:
This is weird. I can't get any other screenshot apps to work but that one. I wonder why?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Jerzeeloon:
Has anyone tested other root user apps?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] cidica:
Reading the comments on the app looks like we are not the only ones that are able to use it on unrooted phones. EVO is working as well wonder what the difference is O.o
[myTouch 3G Slide General] sino8r:
Yup.... no luck but this one. And if other nonrooted devices are working... I bet we can't use it. But how is it working? That's the new question. Maybe there is an exploit to use here. No other apps can take screenshots and this one can?! Weird...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] jordanjf86:
Is anyone able to run this app and view a log for it to see how it is working? Probably have to do it on a G1 or other rooted Android cause I can't get ADB to work on the MT3GS. Maybe that would help.... wish I knew more about rooting haha
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
I have ADB working, however, how do I get it to dump the logcat, or some other log, to file? And if it will really help, I'll be more than happy to do it.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] jordanjf86:
That's a good question. I am not sure how much (If any) it would help. I just thought maybe someone who knows what to look for could review the log to see if anything could be useful.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
Never mind, I got it, posting in a second...

If you need a logcat of when it installed or something else, let me know... I really have no idea how helpful this is.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] jordanjf86:
Yeah I am not sure. It doesn't look like it is doing any "root" type commands. Maybe someone else can comment who is better at looking at these things.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mtjnkee:
Droid Explorer

Droid Explorer also has a LOT of functionality with the MTS once you get the ADB installed using PDAnet. Reboot/recovery/screenshot/installs apps. Will not browse the phone however, but i agree, there must be some sort of security hole somewhere in order for these things to be happening. I tried to flash another recovery onto mine but everything locked up pfor 30 minutes and i got nothing, lucky the MTS rebooted :D
[myTouch 3G Slide General] mtjnkee:

[myTouch 3G Slide General] sino8r:
maybe... send a message via twitter to all 3 developers. the links to their accounts are on page 12 in the rooting the mts thread.

any one knows how to go back to stock rom ??? I just send my hd2 to htc for repairs (screen is cracked) , but they told me that because is hacked and it has a different software the will not do the work unless i go beck to the original version ,. Any ideas ?:confused:
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
run hspl1024 and choose 2.08.0000

download the stock rom and flash it.

job done

you can find the stock rom in the stock rom thread HERE
[HD2 General] zgdanska:
it will not show that is hacked any more ?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
when you enter bootloader and look where it says 'spl', , if the number to the right ends .0000 then its stock and all will be fine, if it ends hspl, , well, its not.

to be honest the rom doesnt matter, it's the hspl that they refused you for.
[HD2 General] rlacsamana1989:
He is right. Flashing Roms isnt what voids your warranty its changing your SPL to HSPL. If you switch it back they will not know the difference. Other than that they already had the phone and probably noted it down.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Laserbeak43:
Hello,

I'm running the latest stable version of cyanogen 5.0.7, which is the last, i think.

And i'm having trouble with my APN settings. I want to perform a clean wipe and revert to a google ROM to see if I can get the APN settings to work on my G1 with that. Is this possible without actually breaking the phone?

I don't think it'd be downgrading as the latest Google ROM is 2.2 and 5.0.7 comes up as 2.1 on my phone.

If it's safe, could someone tell me how?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B6gSix:
from what i understand u basically wanna go back stock so if thats then heres a link

although its been a min since i did it this way but hope this helps
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Laserbeak43:
thanks for the reply.

according to this page, G1 only supports up to Android 1.6 in its official form?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
You know, there might have been an actual REASON why you installed a cyanogen rom.... and it was probably because of the fact that HTC DREAM only has official images to 1.6!

Unless you were just installing cyanogen rom to make life difficult....?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Laserbeak43:
how could installing cyanogenmod make life difficult when it has so many cool features. I can't even remember if android was even past a 1.6 release when i started using cyanogen. what was the point of your reply?

either way, i can't remember the reason why i installed cyanogen. could have just been purely for the sake of modding.

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sph33r:
Start the adb server as root. So if you were on Ubuntu, you'd want to run the following command.

adb kill-server (you must do this to kill the user started server)

sudo adb start-server

Or you can basically do any adb command with sudo to start it. I typically use:

sudo adb devices

This starts the ADB server and tells me my phone is definitely hooked up.

Thank you. I can't believe I didn't think of that.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timothydonohue:
if that's not the deal, it could be that you don't have a rules file set up for it in etc/udev/rules

search the forums for 'adb ubuntu' in the post titles, you find at least a few threads about the rules file you need to make. or, just take the file i made, remove .zip from the end of it, and put it into etc/udev/rules

it has a rule for this device and the nexus i used to have. you'll need to restart udev to get it to recognize. i think the command is just restart udev, lol, but i'm not sure. don't remember exactly. google it. or,

restart your pc :)

from icons to whatever;)

if u dont have a lot of time to spend with it then buy something else...

because this phone makes u feelin that u r somnethin like a crazy scientist performing al theese mods and rom flashing :D

u choose!
[HD2 General] smeddy:
Hey! It's a great for all these:

e-books: Check out AlReader2 - I'm addicted to it as a book-reader, and have churned through so many books on it. If you struggle finding it, PM me or look at my message history, I posted it somewhere (it's freeware).

GPS: Well I have TomTom, which I paid for, which is perfect. There's others out there ranging from free/cheap/pricey. And Google Maps works great with GPS, altho it's not suitable for car navigation unless you're happy with the top-down view.

Phone: No problems at all.

email: Fantastic, both for Outlook and other mail. Some people (and I'm one of them) find the keyboard a bit buggy, but it's replacable, and as an Email reader/short replies it's perfect.

I probably could go into more detail but me tired!
[HD2 General] M3PH:
(what i am about to do is a pet hate of mine) +1

The customization point is a bit extreme tbf. Yes, i would advise reading through the tips and tweaks threads (both performance and general) and yes, it helps if you spent a hour or so familiarising yourself with the UI and your hardware and software versions but once done it's a case of take yout time over it. The HD2 is the fastest smartphone (raw power wise) on the market ATM and that includes the iPhone 4G. It just takes a little bit more love to get how you want it then most other phones (tbh that's windows mobile all over). If you can accept that fact then buy a HD2 ASAP. if not enjoy you nokia or iphone. From experience i know i wouldn't
[HD2 General] Fif23:
Thanks guys I think I am going to go for it.

Can I see some screenshots from the ebook reader ?

Also, can it withstand a random drop from ear-height ? Is that glass ultra-fragile ?
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
:D:D:D:D:D Try it and let us know.........
[HD2 General] Ti3noU:
It's not "ultra fragile", but it's glass anyway. Depending how the phone will touch the ground it can break or not. But from what I've seen it's pretty resistant for little accidental drops.
[HD2 General] smeddy:
Sorry - would love to set you up with a screenshot but I just read this and it's 4am now :)

Will try in the morning (or afternoon!) if I don't get called into work. I did hunt in Google Images for you when I did my OP but none showed it off in it's best light (e.g. full screen on the HD2's luscious screen.

Cracking the screen-wise, all I can suggest is to look after it :) - but anecdotally, while there's a lot of threads on here from people who have sadly dropped and cracked it, there's also a lot from people who have accidently dropped it onto hard ground from shoulder-height who are impressed to see not a single scratch or dent. I believe the biggest factor is if the screen lands on one of it's corners or falls flat onto something sharp.

Will try for a screengrab tomorrow

EDIT: Found a way! Bear in mind it's a low-res pic, looks crystal clear in real life.. There's loads of options like font size, background colour, line-spacing, and then you use swipes etc. to move the page/chapter.
