[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humayunl:
Some questions for those who know rooting:

- I just got an HTC desire off of someone from craigslist. It is unlocked cause I'm running it on AT&T in the US.

- Its a Telstra a8183 version with AT&T's US 3G bands but all the Telstra branding is removed and it looks to be running stock android (latest 2.1 official version).

- Does this mean that whoever removed the branding must have had to root the device to

do so? i.e. is my phone already rooted? How can one tell?

- And if it is rooted, is it rooted for life? Can something I do accidentally un-root it?

And now that it is rooted (if it is rooted) what's the benefit? I will search for this but just thought i'd throw it in there :)

Thanks to whoever answers.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rackspace:
Go to settings and about phone if it rooted or not. And see for your self!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
use adb and see if you have superuser :rolleyes:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humayunl:
So I go into Settings, About Phone and then... I guess into Software information right?

Here is what it says: I just don't know what part here tells me whether its rooted or not:

Firmware version: 2.1 - update1

Baseband version: 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2

Kernel Version: 2.6.29-82821fb5

htc-kernel@and18-2 #1

Build Number: 1.21.405.1 CL172503 test-keys

Software Number: 1.21.405.1

Browser version: Webkit 3.1

So how do I know if I'm rooted? or if I'm running a stock rom or a custom rom?

Should I consider my phone (originally a Telstra branded) a branded phone or a non branded phone now? I know its unlocked cause i'm using it on AT&T in the US.

Help will be appreciated.

Thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RaptorRVL:
Install Titanium backup and see whether or not it starts nagging about root :D. If you can make backups: you've got root!

If not, the app will tell you it needs root access! :p

A bit cumbersome perhaps, but it gets the job done! :D

edit: Oh yeah, it's possible to un-root the phone again. E.g. by flashing an official HTC ROM on it again, then you will have to root again as far as I know!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Just look for the "Superuser permission" icon in the App drawer (All Programs menu)... if it's not there, then you are obviously not rooted.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humayunl:
Ok I looked and I don't have "Superuser Permission" in my app drawer. So does this confirm that I am not rooted?

But then howcome all the telstra branding is removed from this phone if it isn't even rooted? Oh I get it, maybe someone rooted it, and then installed a stock HTC desire ROM. Could that be it?

Does the "about phone" information that I have pasted above, tell you anything useful?

by the way, thanks a lot everyone for the answers. they really help.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
That's probably it, either someone would have rooted the phone and installed a generic (unbranded) ROM onto it as your firmware version is x.xx.405.x - the '405' means you have an unbranded phone.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Correct... you can un-root your phone by installing your original stock RUU as this will remove root.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] humayunl:
Great. Thanks everyone for the help.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zebidee:
This is confusing, I have super user permissions on my desire but i downloaded and ran titanium back up and it said my phone it not rooted.

Can anybody help me please.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skepper:
LINUX FFS...

Just download a Terminal Emulator and type: su ... If the return is "permission denied" you aint got root...

[G1 General] srt4mn:
Well I recently sold a mytouch 3g to my gf's friend that I rooted in the past (was a friend's phone who I bought from because he needed money) and it currently has CM 5.0.8 installed. She told me today that it has been running really slow lately no matter how many times she reboots and such. I told her I would look into possibly installing a different CFW for her that was more stable. Problem is, there are a ton of options to choose from and I have been out of the G1/MyTouch scene for a while.

Basically, she wants the phone to be stable and pretty quick. She doesn't need a lot of features or stuff that still has bugs to be worked out. I let her know I could unroot it and put 1.6 on there if we couldn't figure something out and she wouldn't be against that. Can anybody recommend a ROM that is very stable and quick besides the stock firmware? Doesn't matter if it's a 1.6, 2.0, etc. version.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!
[G1 General] mejorguille:
Super D 1.11 is a fast/stable as you could go.... CM6 is amazingly fast but it's still in release candidate mode and an android novice might not be able to handle the flaws (if you can find some) in it. CM6 could beat it if it continues in the path in going in...
[G1 General] srt4mn:
Yeah, CM was always the way to go for stability when I had my G1 a while back. That's why I threw 5.0.8 on the phone before giving it to her, but she said it's been really slow lately. I don't want to borrow the phone from her or anything to troubleshoot, that's why I'd rather find a known stable ROM and just flash that on there and be good.

I'll download that one and give it a try on her phone, thanks!
[G1 General] srt4mn:
I noticed that the SuperD ROM says to have the sd card partitioned, is that a requirement for the ROM or no? Currently the card is not partitioned and if I could avoid doing that, that would be great. I'm going to be doing the flash at work and don't have a way to back up what's on the card already to partition it.
[G1 General] avatar_43:
No it's not needed but if you plan on having things like Apps2SD or swap then yes.
[G1 General] srt4mn:
Yeah I don't think she needs anything like that. Thanks for the help!
[G1 General] adambenjamin:
This is a good thread. I just rooted my friends g1 and put CM6 on there. I have been checking to see what the most stable Roms are..

I remember I would eventually start having issues with whatever ROM, so I would go back to a totally stock + rooted 1.6. If my friends doesn't like his CM6 I am going to put stock 1.6 with root access. Add wifi tether and add overclock/ setCPU. For functionality, that is a great way to go if you don't mind the old school look.
[G1 General] Shrivel:
If you're going with SuperD (as you should IMHO), I'd use 1.9.3 or 1.7/1.8. The last two had some issues with installing apps - 1.11 in particular would occasionally FC newly installed apps until you ran fix_permissions. Not a deal-breaker, since it seemed stable otherwise but just a pain.
[G1 General] srt4mn:
Yeah I installed the 1.11 version today and was not a fan of the launchers included and it started dragging it's feet after about 5 min of messing with it. Does the 1.9.3 have the stock, translucent launcher that you can drag upwards?

If my memory serves, it is one of the stock launchers.
[G1 General] themapleboy:
i find Cy6 to be much faster than Cy5 (fastest rom i've ran since super d) my only issue is random force closes on market.

I find CM6 to definitely be more then decent but hey, to each his own...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dupe576:
So, I've been reading a bit about how to install 2.2 on my g1. My initial impressions as a first time rooter is that it is a bit complicated. I really would like to know what I'm doing in case anything goes wrong. However, I've been a bit frustrated by any of the information I've found on google about it. Most of the tutorials only tell you what to do without explaining why you are doing it. Any explanations about how things works have been pretty brief and not much goes into how each piece of the android system relates to the other.

I'm going to run through my trouble points with learning it and if someone could jump in and explain any one of these things it would help me out a lot and hopefully other people as well.

There are (at least?) 4 main parts you need to be concerned with when installing a custom rom:

-the custom rom itself

I'm not totally sure of everything that goes into this. All the java stuff I'm guessing. Dalvik vm? Maybe the linux kernel? Some c libs too? busybox? Some other stuff?

-the spl.. aka second program loader.. I found the following explanation for this one:

Seems fairly straightforward. How does the IPL factor into this though? Why is the IPL typically not a concern when installing roms? What is a nbh? How does a nbh relate to a .img? Why does this get flashed?

-the radio.. i have no idea what this one is for.. references to it typically seem to be vague and mysteriousi have heard it is quote "the easiest way to brick your phone" which leads me to believe it is important. Appearantly danger SPL will kill you if you dare mess with it. This scares me because I dont really even know what it is so how am i supposed to know if I'm messing with it?

I have heard this description:

What is this talking about? How do the partitions relate to what goes on when you are installing a rom? What is it used for? Why are there so many versions of it? Why?!

Finally:

-the recovery.img - this one is also a shroud of mystery to me. I'm not sure how it relates to the spl and it seems like sometimes you use this to install updates and sometimes you use the spl. I'm just not really sure how this factors into things.

This also seems to be involved a lot in things like 'repairing ext file systems' etc. What ext file system is it repairing? The sd card? The internal storage? Why are you supposed to repair it?

I have more questions but I will leave it at this. Thoughts anyone?

I haven't used that particular battery as it was unavailable when I first got my Evo.I did puchase 2x1500mah baterries with a charger on Ebay direct from Hong Kong for 9.98 and they work just as well as the original.If anything,I think the spares run a tad bit cooler in general.
[EVO 4G General] Plancy:
I get more life out of the original, but the aftermarket ones give quite a bit of life for $5 each.

That red battery looks sweet. Might have to pick up a couple of those. The HTC Touch pro2 work just fine for me. I bought 4 batteries and 2 chargers for $20. 3 work fine.

Let's try to have some fun while reading different stories between you and your beloved HTC HD2. Let's share not only good things that happened but also the bad stuffs, and maybe someone out there can learn something from your story.

So what are you waiting for? Start sharing your stories here! :D

Mine is a bit lame, but over the past 2 weeks myself and my wife have been in hospital with our 3 week premature little girl in nursery care, during that time the HD2 was my saving grace, being able to stay on keep in touch with friends on facebook and general web browsing, take regular photos of our girl to update my wife while she was recovering from the surgery (c-section) and bub was in nursery, post online and send to family, uploading video to youtube etc. Everything is in this phone, there is not one limitation and thats what I love about it.

Since I got my HD2, my wife was on me about getting new phone and cost. all the way up until we were out and about and needed directions and needed to look up the store we were looking for. My HD2 came in like a champ. Yeah, I know I could have edone this with most phones, but for me, I like the flexability of this phone. and the size!!! I'm 6' 8'' and this phone fits me. Finally a phone that does not fill like I'm the giant in the room. BTW, I'm the normal one!!! the rest of you are muchkins! :D

No understanding.

When I put the kids to bed obviously I have my HD2 just in case I need to check something.... My eldest daughter has now put a sign up outside her room "no telefon" she's only 6 still learning to spell.

Obviously my wife loved that and was thinking of getting one for the bedroom.

On a sad note my HD2 has been away getting fixed for 3 weeks (been using the old touch diamond which is still good) how they all laughed when I told them it had broke. Getting it back tomorrow hopefully.

p.s.

That's not my real name, if anybody saw this thread apart from HD2 owners we're F****ed. They wouldn't understand.

My most unforgettable moment with the HD2 was today. I was hacking the rom update utility to talk nice to my bootloader. I was doing well and my HD2 too. We had fun. I could let my HD2 do all kind of things until I said something very stupid to the bootloader. I said perform a task 29 (format) and then a task 2a (recovering bad blocks) and klaboooom my HD2 went of and never turned on. :o

Now my HD2 is lying before me, quietly and peacefully. It is just lying there... doing nothing. All that is left are some nice memories about those unforgettable moments I had with the HD2. Thanks buddy. R.I.P.

[HD2 General] madindehead:
Might have to get my girlfriend an HD2 also :p

On a side note:

My HD2 saved us at the cinema the other day! We had some reserved tickets to pick up, and we stupidly forgot the reservation number :s Thankfully, I logged into her Hotmail account via Opera, and found the reservation number :D

Also, I wanted to buy a game in the Steam sale that same day. The sale ended at 18:00 here, and I was going to still be in the cinema at the time. Thankfully, I was able to purchase my game on the Steam store on opera, and secure my purchase just before the film started! And...the phone even helped us get to the cinema! Got to love Google Maps!

So, overall, my HD2 saved the day three times on that day alone!
[HD2 General] appelflap:
romantic ... real phone buddies . I see you two on a bank in park, watching the moon and holding phones together. I wish my girlfriend was into this :( But she has an old, ugly clamshell nokia.

and my GF hates it, she always says i'm obsessed with it, but when we got lost last time she was so happy that i had it with me, so we found our way home :P haha
