Has anyone asked...

Has anyone tried contacting the source, it seems that up until now they have been pretty accessible or simple to work with. Has anyone tried asking them? They would need to leave a way to access root, it just wouldn't make sense for them not to leave access. I'm not versed with dealing with them or had any experience with this sort of thing previously but I suspect with the amount of devs some have had communications with the company we need to be talking to. One of the big draws to Android is the ability for you guys to do what you do with their devices, so why not express that to them and ask nicely.

I just purchased my EVO and as I stated earlier it came with 2.2 pre loaded from sprint. So I wouldn't attempt getting a replacement. It would probably be a waste of time and money.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
Ah, I see. You flashed a rooted 2.2 stock ROM, then went back to 2.1 using an older RUU. Sorry, that doesn't count. :)

But for your own purposes, just re-root and flash one of the 2.2-based ROMs in the Development section, like Fresh 3.1, Baked Snack, DamageControl, etc. Those all preserve root and allow tethering.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhconcepts:
I have a ticket for a new evo. Do you think the new one that I get will have the 2.2 or older rom in it? That would be so sweet if I could root it..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
No way to say for sure. The longer you wait, the more likely the phones in stock will be updated from the factory. It's not like these things sit on the shelf for very long. Some people even this week have reported getting replacements with 1.47, others are getting theirs with 2.2. The times, they are a-changin.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] texxet:
Alright, first post here...

So I keep watching this thread and others, figured why not make a quick app for it. It will simply answer the question "Can I root my Evo Yet?"

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
We'll just have to wait and see. Unrevoked has a lot to gain if they can do something that isn't a half-root and doesn't cause as many problems as previous versions. That does say "Incredible" though, but maybe it works the same for Evo.

I'll watch it closely.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agonzalez1010:
Question answered.

But how did we go from getting a root before the launch of the EVO to not having a OTA root several days after the release of Froyo? (and we are talking about phones with stock 2.2 default installed or updated phones via OTA).

It wasn't until the last week of May that someone did a dump of the EVO and put it online so and then phone was out a couple of days later and we all rooted it.

I'm just wondering if Sprint/Google figured out a way to really secure the bootloader on froyo and is making it very difficult to find an exploit on it or if its that there hasn't been a lot of time spent working on cracking this puppy.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Answers? Theories?

Again no offense to anyone, just a comment....

UPDATE:

THATS RIGHT, I FORGOT ABOUT THE GOOGLE I/O CONFERENCE. THAT EXPLAINS IT. SO THERE WAS PLENTY OF TIME TO GET IT FIGURED OUT. THANKS FOR CLEARING IT UP AND ANSWERING THIS.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dissenter:
HTC has to release the source, per the license. That usually does the trick when it comes to finding a workable exploit. Now that it's up on the dev site, I'm sure we'll see something soon.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhriscoy:
I just got my evo about 3 weeks ago, im finding theres alot to be learned on android, im glad i found the holy grail of forums, very informational, although im more of a hands on teach me step by step kinda guy. Hopefully when root for froyo is available., id love to see a detailed step by step instruction.....rooting for dummies sort a thing, of course starting with how to back up the phone.

I have a couple questions

Is kernels seperate from roms?

Whats the main function of a kernal or custom kernal? Is it just to make fps better?

So when root come out for froyo, id first do back up,then root phone/reboot,then flash custom rom/reboot, then update radio/reboot,then update wimax/reboot, then flash kernel/reboot.?

Also about backups, titanium backup....nandroid back up. Whats the difference between the two?

When you do a full system back up does it get saved to your computwr or your sd card?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dylx:

[Vibrant General] winhwah:
For some reason my Gmail App has stopped working properly about 1hr ago. Every time I open the app the conversations start loading then get to the bottom of the screen the force close message below pops up:

"The process com.google.process.gapps has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. dumpstate_app_201008062027_com_google_process_gapps.log has been saved. Use *#9900# to copy out log."

No success after rebooting the phone several times. Can anyone please shed some light? I really have no clue to what happened :confused:... now I have to use the email client :rolleyes:.

Thanks in advance for your help, really appreciate it.
[Vibrant General] bdveteran18:
I just checked to see if it was a problem with the app itself and mine is loading all conversations fine. Did you delete or replace anything prior to?
[Vibrant General] winhwah:
No I didn't do anything to the phone, not even install or uninstall any apps. This is so strange.
[Vibrant General] bdveteran18:
Maybe try removing the account and doing it again... It shouldn't mess anything else up. I'll try it out on my phone now to confirm.

[Update] Wouldn't let me do it because it's the primary. A factory reset is the only way to completely remove it. You can try clicking on sync gmail to stop it and then click on it again to force a refresh. Idk if that'll fix your particular problem though
[Vibrant General] Arr MiHardies:
Try going to settings, applications, manage applications, menu button, filter, all. Select gmail, clear data and clear cache. Then do the same with gmail storage, then try to resync.

[Vibrant General] winhwah:

[Vibrant General] winhwah:
Ok, after 4hrs of insanity trying to figure out what suddently went wrong with my vibrant. I came to a conclusion that it's not my phone because when I added my wife's GMAIL account, the force close did not come up and all the conversations were loaded without any issues.

Apparently, the server where my GMAIL account is located seems to have some problems since I keep getting sync errors with contacts and calendar as well.
[Vibrant General] Arr MiHardies:
Have you tried logging into your account from an actual computer? Perhaps there is a problem with your account. I know I had weird sync errors when my account got compromised by a spammer last month, and google locked my account until I changed the password.

[Vibrant General] winhwah:
The weirdest thing is when I used my PC I didn't encounter any issues... That's why I thought the problem came from the phone @ the beginning.

Since this morning everything seems got back to normal. All the conversations loaded no problem.
[Vibrant General] kevnkate:
I'm getting this now, too. My first two screens of gmail are shown but if I scroll down to where it says "Loading conversations" the after a few seconds the error pops up. I wonder if there is a "bad"email in our inbox that the gmail app doesn't know how to handle - something along three lines of unexpected characters in the email header/subject/etc or some partis badly formatted or too long like the header or something in it. Tomorrow (Sunday) I will try archiving my old messages on gmail and see if that makes the error go away. If it does then it a pretty good bet that one of the emails is causing three problem (the app still shouldn't crash but it would at least help explain what is happening).
[Vibrant General] winhwah:
Well I was able to avoid the error by archiving or deleting old emails in the inbox. I noticed when you have a large volume in one single label it causes the crash while loading conversations. I do not think it comes from a "bad" email, it's just a glitch in the app itself that folks @ Google need to work on.

Another thing that I noticed is when I logged-in my email using Nexus One, the force close did not occur but there was a failed connection-try again message.
[Vibrant General] StefanB86:
Same problem here, noticed it today... good to know im not alone heh, but like the OP said im pretty sure it is a glitch in the app, so we'll maybe have to wait for a fix.
[Vibrant General] s15274n:
Confirmed, only by trying to scroll down really fast (and I'm on wifi). This was not an issue on my g1, of course I was using custom rom's. It'll certainly be addressed.
[Vibrant General] mistical:
I have not encountered this problem with the Gmail app yet but I have had the exact same issue come up with the Messaging app twice so far.

But the problem has not stopped me from using the Messaging app and I was able to go right back into it each time it happened. It happened once about 30 minutes ago, and another time over a week ago.

I think it may have to do with the 200 text limit that I have turned off. Since Inbox is at 173 right now with Outbox 89, last deleted a few days ago and also with 33 conversations.

It does get a little laggy too but I have noticed it lag with only a few conversations with maybe an overall total of 30 text messages. I never had it lag this much on the G1 and I would have over 1000+ text messages and with cyanogenmod.
[Vibrant General] techpreneur:
I am having the same issue.
[Vibrant General] Flak_Munky:
I am getting the same thing too.

Mine started late last week after I updated the Facebook app. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling (highly doubt it was related, but due to coincidence I had to try it) and it was doing the same thing.

I did a factory wipe - same thing. I ran fix permissions and rebooted - same thing.

I am not sure it is related to having too many items in one label as I have just shy of 300 items in my inbox, and I have had about the same (give or take 2-3) for months (I use many, many labels to manage things), but I am going to try to organize, move, delete, archive, etc. some of my messages and see what happens.
[Vibrant General] techpreneur:
Google knows of the issue.

[Vibrant General] Flak_Munky:
FYI, it looks like this may have been fixed. Mine has stopped doing it this morning. Checking the issue link that laris posted, nothing confirmed from Google that it is fixed yet though. Couple of people reporting that theirs is fixed too.
[Vibrant General] bdveteran18:
This happened to me this morning now but it's been about an hour since it happened and everything seems to be back to normal. Just a fluke I suppose.

Connect phone to computer. Make sure its on charge or sync. Take htccamera.apk and put in tools folder of Sdk on hard drive of computer. Go to start and type in the search field cmd. Go to the tools directory of Sdk while in the command promt. Then type

Adb remount

Adb push HtcCamera.apk /system/app

I think that's the name of the app LOL

After that the app should be in there. I don't know if it will work on that rom though cause I believe its a senseless rom. But best of luck
