[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahil04:
Honestly rooting isn't even that big of a deal, what I would suggest is to go download the one click root (or use One Click Lag Fix from the market), it really is simple.

I'm not sure how to use Kies (haven't used it myself), but odin is simple, this is the video that helped me when I first flashed it. I think ODIN is only used to go back to the stock firmware which you can find on the forum.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnY7P14JSWQ

To do the one click root, you turn on USB debugging and plug in your usb cable into your computer (don't mount the drives).

Open one click root and click root, it will copy over the files and do it's thing, then your phone will reboot into recovery mode and all you do is scroll down to "re-install packages" using the volume key and use the power key to select, then your phone will reboot once again and when it starts up you should be rooted (you'll have a super user app in your app drawer).

Then when you're rooted, you install Rom Manager from the market. After installing rom manager, flash the Clockwork Recovery (the very first option) and go download a froyo rom of your choosing from the development section. Right now, choose the option to backup your rom (just a safety net in case something goes wrong, you'll be able to come back to where you are now). When this is done, mount your phone on your computer and copy the back up to your computer. Then copy the downloaded rom to your internal sd.

Once you are flashed with clockwork recovery, all you have to do in rom manager is pick the option "Install ROM from SD Card" (assuming that you have already copied the rom to your internal sd card (not the microsd)). After this the phone should reboot and start the installation process. The advice given is to leave the phone alone for the first 15 minutes after it boots up, restart the phone, and wait another 5 minutes before messing with it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronjeremy11:
Thank you. And just to be completely clear, i take ifrom the rooting instructions and affirmations that flashing a froyo image on an unrooted vibrant is not an option...In the past I have rooted my nexus and g1 so clockworkmod/flashing in recovery, this is all familiar, I'm guessing 1 click root is similar to the nexus version in that 1 click can unroot as welll? This all sounds good so I guess ill just try to sift through all the custom Froyo Rome in dev section and try to locate a stable and as stock as possible version. I'm going to wait until later on Monday, between now and then will be my last expressed hope of hearing an update about the existence of an official froyo ota update for the vibrant. But I've read a lot about Samsung and their odd software update complex so I wont be holding my breath. But come hell or high water I will soon have full adobe flash, tethering, a smooth UI , etc., e tc., etc.

Hello peoples,

firstly is there anyone who has a moto backflip in India ? If so , does it come with the moto blur ?

A friend of mine has a moto backflip and it doesnt even seem to have BLUR installed .

also , to upgrade to the new 2.1 , the moto site says that the software requirments are : Blur_Version.0.13.37.MB300.ATT.en.US . But he seems to have Moto_version.0.4.9.mb300.retail.EN.02

So how does he upgrade ? What needs to be done ?

Please help as he isn't able to use most of the good apps since most of them require a 2.* to be running on your device.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] james_bombed:
hi

Hi frendz, I too am a backflip user from India and to say the least, we all Indian users have been $cre*d royally by motorola.

Our devices don't come with motoblur(one of the main reasons of me buying this device) and as per motorola support forum, we are stuck with android 1.5 forever, when the others are using the better, zippier upgraded OS versions.

My suggestion is to sell off the device asap.

Also, i tried to root my device, but it failed as the rageinthecage cannot be run from the connectbot in my phone!! so no custom rom also :(

So...

Was this ever resolved? I'm having this issue with my Fascinate, which I just updated to 2.2 via the below instructions.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=948722

It seems that my phone does not have enough storage in the built in memory, which is why the issue persists. However, I do not think I have actually run out of memory, since I just did a clean install. Also, whenever I restart my phone, it wipes all of the synced information, removes the market completely, and makes it so that I must add my Google account information again. Oh, and it will not actually accept the Google account that I add, saying, "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server".

Thoughts? I'm totally lost.

Edit: Used this to fix it.

[EVO 4G General] oracleminder:
So just decided to get an evo. My wife has had hers since release day. This one Has the 2.20 and the 3.30.651.2 Build. The quality of the screen is horrible compared to hers (the color and brightness). Before even being able to root it I couldnt use QIK because it reboots the phone. Downloaded the latest one and I can open the software and its after my camera kicks on that it reboots now....

So i rooted it and got the s-off. Now I can take nand backups but its says they are corrupt. Cant flash a rom because it will hang on the Evo boot screen or it will drop to a boot loader loop with the HTC with 4 exclamations....

Is anyone else seeing this or is this guy flat out a lemon?

I have looked around the forums a little and found people having a hard time rooting and s-off which was easy after skimming the forums for a while. Thanks ahead of time for any input in this.
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
The screen problems im not sure how to fix

there is a new ota to fix your camera issues, yours is most likely the new hardware/camera 004 model.

for rooting the only method that works is toast's, unrevoked wont. Unless im behind on info. Have you tried toast's method?
[EVO 4G General] Nefariouss:
Unrevoked works fine. Took me about five minutes to root useing that method when I got my replacement phone.

As far as your phone issues, take it back to the store and show them the problems. Get a replacement.
[EVO 4G General] tejasrichard:
Oracle, go to your bootloader. What is the first line? Is it Supersonic EVT2-3 S-off? If so, I had the same problem. You have bad blocks. My recommendation is the that you flash sprintlovers ROM. It cones as a pc36img.zip, and you flash it through bootloader. I tried every method of rooting and none of them would let me flash through recovery.... I always either got errors while flashing or, even if it seemed to flash fine, it would never boot. Also, Sprintlovers will get your pri corrected. If this works for you, give me a shout, and I have an idea we can try.
[Vibrant General] oka1:
I am having problems with the phone (I cannot access apps store or the ext sd card) and only have Odin to work with. So, I want to flash a fresh original factory rom and then reflash the new rom. When do this, i am assuming the factory reflash erases EVERYTHING including voodoo lag fix and reinstalls the original factory rom. So, essentially it is reformatting the internal sd and then reinstalling a new copy. This is a correct assumption ?

So this works for updating the phone from the generic Nordic 2.1 to Rogers 2.1?

Just wondering... if i already have nordic 2.1 working great on my rogers x10a, is there a point to flashing rogers 2.1? Is performance better or something?
[XPERIA X10 General] BingoRingo:
Yes, Nordic is X10i while Rogers is X10a, with X10i on an X10a you might encounter a few problems (I had very poor battery life on mine for example) and you cannot update with SEUS later.

However, you can also flash a generic X10a version like Brazil or Latin America, if you prefer.

[XPERIA X10 General] gooph:
just to add some confidence to this idea: i just flashed from global generic to rogers branded using this method without clearing user data. worked perfectly. now it tells me i have an x10a again and its just like i had it on global generic with no effort. of course do this at your own risk but 2.1 to 2.1 should be nearly harmless. i just had to re-root and i'm good again.
[XPERIA X10 General] dpk0875:
I think it depends on each user's experience. I have a north american x10 now running global 2.1rooted and having absolutely no problems.

Now having said that, I've already posted a thread asking if there's a benefit for me to switch back to rogers 2.1 and the biggest and the only (imo) benefit is so you don't void your warranty
[XPERIA X10 General] Candy[MAN]:
There won't be any difference. I am running Global as well with good battery life and JIT enabled on Rogers. No problem here too. Phone is running smooth.

If you want your phone to say X10a instead of "i", just edit the default.prop file like I did and now it will read as an X10a running the global firmware.
[XPERIA X10 General] ECBomb:
How exactly do we flash this? Do we do it like Nordic's 2.1 FW where we put the .sin files into the firmware folders? And what are the miniloader.sin, update.xml, and simlock.ta files?

Does this mean that SEUS will be able to check for future Rogers updates once I flash to this firmware?
[XPERIA X10 General] ericstretch:
This file actually comes with the flash tool in it, all ready to go. So all you do is start up the batch file and follow the directions. I did it yesterday and it works beautifully.
[XPERIA X10 General] BluechipJ:

[XPERIA X10 General] jayluke:
Just wanted to add to the conversation. I've been running the Nordic 2.1 on my Roger's 10a (flashed over the stock 1.6) for nearly a week. I kept it bone stock for several days in order to get a feel for any differences in performance. I didn't run any actual perf tests, but I do think its much smoother and snappier, and have had zero negative effects. No bugs, no crashes, etc.

Reflashing with the Rogers 10a rom will just reintroduce Roger's branding, so I'm going to give that a pass.

[Galaxy Tab General] Justin^Tan:
considering this is my 1st android, what should i do with the tab? step by step

lurking in this forum, i definitely want to root and be able upgrade firmware or to do anything in my tab

but what should i prepare? in the noob root for beginner, there's only explanation about rooting

can i save the original rom? what app to use? do i need to back up 1st? using what?

and can i upgrade the stock firmware to the jk1 without flashing it 1st to jj4? (since from what i read jj4 is full flash and jk1 is not, logically the stock firmware must be full flash also)

many thanks to those who can explain it in beginner's language

or maybe a couple of links would help

i already got the tutorial for the rooting process, so basically, what i need to do before rooting is what i need so i wont lose anything precious
[Galaxy Tab General] Croak:
I'd just start using it. Get some apps installed, see what you need/want/like to do with it, and if something you need/want/like to do is prevented by not having root access, then root it.

I'd say for the majority of Android users, there really is not much need to root, since Android lets you do so much right out of the box, unlike the competition that requires "jailbreaking" (God I hate that term) just to do simple **** like customizing.

Same goes with firmware. Unless you really enjoy the process of flashing and all that's associated with it, there's not always a clear need to do so. The only time I recommend somebody flash custom/leaked firmware for more than the fun-factor is if there's a problem in the current firmware that can only be fixed by flashing.

That said, this is XDA, which is all about custom ROMs and rooting and extracting more from a device than what the manufacturer shipped it with. Have at it. :)
[Galaxy Tab General] Justin^Tan:
jailbreaking lol, yeah, hate that

well something that bugs me is about the mobile browser view that some ppl actually advising rooting to be able to do that

hmm, what about what to do 1st if i actually want to root? any advice what to do and what app to use?
[Galaxy Tab General] Rapax:
rooting on the Galaxy Tab is extremely simple:

1) Open the Market

2) Install and run 'z4root'

3) Hit the 'root' button' and wait

That's it.

Once you're done with that, one of the first things I'd suggest is to get AdFree installed and updated. It'll quite successfully block all those annoying ads.
[Galaxy Tab General] Justin^Tan:
i know about z4root, what i need to know is what i should do before rooting, like backing up the stock OS or data or app or anything like that, so i wouldnt regret having rooted my tab in case i flashed it with newest firmware like jk1
[Galaxy Tab General] Croak:
Rooting doesn't prevent flashing, or do any harm by itself, and when you flash, you wipe/reset the root.
[Galaxy Tab General] Justin^Tan:
oh, i see

so basically it just void my warranty and give me administator authorities like in windows?

thanks then
[Galaxy Tab General] rpmbnsf:
If you have to return your tab for any reason just reflash stock rom from whatever cell provider you got it from and the root is gone thus no breaking of the warranty
