NVM!!! I Stumbled Upon My Own NO PC QUICK ROOT Method!

Ok so in my never ending struggle against the Evil Eclair/T-Mo/HTC NAND Protection and the Futility of Trying to flash a ROM With the "Supposed AndRoot QuIck Root Method" As well as a fine point from Nbetcher that the Engineering build must be flashed because Android has NAND protection while running. I have devised my own "No PC ROOT Method!!!"

Required Files (Tested For MT3G SLIDE Latest OTA Unrooted Stock)

1.Download Androot From Location of Choosing (I'm Using Version 1.6.2)

2.Download ESPRIMG.zip (ENG build)

3.Download SlideEng-Package.zip

4.Download Custom Rom Of Your Choosing(Mine Is CM 6.1.1 Stable)

5.Download Android Terminal Emulator(From Market)

6.Download Root Explorer Android (Requires Root) (From Market Or Some Place Online)

7.Download File Explorer (Dev:Adao Team)(From Android Market)

8.Download Latest Clockwork Recovery(I Used 2.5.0.1)

Please Not I Am NOT The DEV Behind these Apps nor am I Resposible For Any Damages You May Incur To Your Device or Warranty by using this Method! Also Before anyone says I repped someone off remeber I accidentally discovered this using 2 failed methods because they essentially cancel each other out.(The Latter Nbetchers works just not after the AndRoot One)!!!

So...

1st Download/Install all needed files from market( File Manager Android Terminal Emulator)

2nd Download all zip images, Recoveries, Roms, apps from phone browser Directly To SD ROOT(Google em until I get links up on Dev Forum)

3rd. Unzip SlideEng-Package.zip To Root using File Manager or Other Zip Program for android(Andro-Zip Works Well)

4th Change Name of Clockwork to Update.zip(Case Sensative)

5th Install AndRoot And Run Root Me With Install Su & Temp Root/Unroot After Reboot Selected(Or Else You Will Boot Loop)

6th Install And Run Root Explorer then Copy and paste flash_img and mtd0.img to /data/local on android device by multi-select copy then RM R/W in program in upper left on data local folder.

7th IMPORTANT!!! Long Press and hold each copied file and set permissions to allow read and write on both user and the lowest option (I Think Dev or system)

8th Run Android Terminal Emulator and type the following commands verbatim spaces included Pressing enter after each line($ n # will be there provided you follwed all steps if not go back to androot and root again):

$ su

# cd /data/local

# chmod 04755 flash_image

# ./flash_image misc mtd0.img

Now power off and reboot using VOL-DOWN + POWER

It'll reboot into the HBoot Screen and ask if you want to Check ESPRIMG.zip after Verifying it will ask you to flash Select Yes (VOL-UP) And Wait DO NOT POWER DOWN OR TAKE OUT BATTERY!!!

Once its Completed it will ask you to Reboot select no Instead and Go To Recovery

Now Select APPLY Update.zip to flash CLOCKWORK RECOVERY YAY!!! :-D Now We Can Flash a Custom Rom With Root and Even Go As Far As S-OFF!!! But Please Be Sure Its Already On Your Micro SD...

Select Wipe Data Factory Reset by Scrolling with VOL- UP/DOWN or Track Pad and Use Power/Trackpad TO Select.

Now Use Install Zip from SD Card to Install Custom Rom(Flash GApps Second if downloaded and desired if using CM Mod 6.1.1) Now Reboot And Enjoy!!! If you Wanna Flash Anything Else Use Rom Manager From Market and Som Custom Roms to Boot into Clockwork!!! Thanks to all the Devs and their tools and immense knowledge for Making this Possible! Thanks To All The ROM Chefs Too!!!
