It worked fine on UK 2.51, really thanks :)

Other thing, this is to be honest the best ROM i used so far, i'm not going to 2.2 till official, but talking about Eclair this is the perfect one for me.

I really liked the FB sync options in the UK 2.21, but without launcherPRO and overclock, it was too slow. Then i changed to 2.34.1, FB sync doesn't work but if i flashed in top of 2.21 i would still have the contacts, fast ROM, but that thing with blur 50/50 wasn't perfect.

Today i flashed UK 2.51, i did a backup of my 2.34.1 and i tried to flash it in top of it without wipe. This is the best one so far, no doubt about it, i just uninstalled LauncherPro, the Blur one is doing just fine, without any overclock.

Google Goggles is working fine, like 2.34, and i used the "SuperOneClick" to root it, just one click as announced no problems at all.

Hope i help someone making their choice :)

Cheers.
[Defy Android Development] irenic:
yeah i'm on 2.2 since i already using your nandroid backup.

btw, rsd lite showed status : pass .. but then the screen just turn blank. when i unplug usb and plugin it back, there's a sound (of usb device connecting) on my pc and rsd lite detects my device..

what's that means? what should i do after the status is pass?
[Defy Android Development] andyfletcher:
It doesnt work. After previously being on 2.5.1. i restored the nandroid rooted 2.2 which worked fine. i then tried to flash the cn2.2 froyo. it installed but im left at a black screen unable to boot up. Tried running the 2.2 boot only no joy.

So now i will have to reflash the stock 2.5.1, then the 2.1 boot only then get root again before deciding what to try next. --- Unless there is an easier way?

I wish i never put the 2.5.1 on.

[Defy Android Development] irenic:
do you mean flash to stock 2.5.1 by downloading file from here?

http://and-developers.com/sbf:defy

and how do you able to flash if you cant see a thing on the screen :(
[Defy Android Development] andyfletcher:
Yes that was where I downloaded the uk 2.5.1 rom.

I was able to flash the rom because RSDLITE shows the device as being connected.

The boogie group beta2 works well. Finally I should be able to stay with a build for than just a few hours... unless boogie beta 3 arrives very soon ;)
[Defy Android Development] irenic:
thanks! at last manage to power on my defy back. my bad I thought I could flash to 2.34 sbf luckily your post reminds me that 2.5.1 is undowngradeable :(

now i'm back to 2.5.1 and rooted using SuperOneClick root.. have to install custom recovery to nand restore 2.2 rom.
[Defy Android Development] JamesDax:
Thanks. Your app fixed the 3G problem. :D

Now I have everything working. Got my google apps installed. Camera works, 3G and WiFi works, cpu overclocked to 1Ghz and Froyo running smooth as silk. I'm a happy man.

Thanks to everyone.

Oh, btw, I don't suppose there is a way to get WiFi calling back?
[Defy Android Development] mils1:
My first android phone (defy with 2.1), what steps do i need to make in order to have 2.51 fully working & will i be able to go back to factory 2.1

Also do i need to have 2.2 installed & if so which version do i use?
[Defy Android Development] vatshu:
use superoneclick root 2.51 can unroot??
[Defy Android Development] joyguard:
This is v1.3, a very old version, but it can work.

The latest version is 1.5.5, but it cannot work.
[Defy Android Development] joyguard:
I ever tried the latest 1.5.5 SuperOneClick, and it was still trapped in loops. I tried this methond several times and it can hardly help. But with the old version 1.3, my phone was successfully rooted. So the working version is not a New Version.
[Defy Android Development] SteveChou:
that's strange.
[Defy Android Development] gregzeng:
Which backup programs?

Android Marketplaces have too many backup programs. Each claims to backup different parts, but do not mention what they do not backup. Only by reading each claim & comments ... did I realize Android seems to have not any workable ONE-only PROGRAM.

Is this true?
[Defy Android Development] rbeier1221:
You should do a nandroid backup through recovery before flashing any rom. It backups your whole system. For individual apps use titanium.

can anyone help me?
[Defy Android Development] Sutitan:
Any legitamite v1.3 dl links? The superoneclick thread only goes back to v1.4.
[Defy Android Development] vigorito:
and where to find that program nandroid?
[Defy Android Development] Sutitan:
Are you referring to a Nandroid backup? From what i understand, Nandroid backup is simply just a copy/backup of your NAND memory. You can create a Nandroid backup using tenfars recovery. Your phone must be rooted in order to use the recovery. Once the recovery is installed, you can do a recovery boot to access the menu, then do a backup/restore of your NAND memory from there.

Hope that helped.
[Defy Android Development] imsuneaik:
How do you unroot the phone after using this method to root 2.51 ?
[Defy Android Development] QNXUA:

update. all fine

Hi guy

What's RATC in step 4 said?
[Defy Android Development] :
Tried z4root, didn't work.

This, worked like a charm, relatively troublesome through.

And had to download the driver via http://www.mobyware.net/verizon-xv6...r-for-windows-64-bit-download-free-13685.html
[Defy Android Development] Beach_Head:
RATC = Rage Against The Cage
[Defy Android Development] zohan569:
wow, this is great! thanks
[Defy Android Development] Beach_Head:
I just noticed the the RATC file that this program uses is larger than the original RATC file. Were there modifications done?
[Defy Android Development] nilsja:
any chance for linux users to use this method? i am using ubuntu and can not convince my virtualbox to usbproxy the defy in debugging mode...
[Defy Android Development] bobbyphoenix:
+1 With the other S1C there was an unroot button, but on this one there is not, so how do you unroot?
[Defy Android Development] chaihg:
Did a linux or MacOS punt figure out how to run this software. Asking my friends PC is a little insulting :(
[Defy Android Development] gregzeng:
AUSTRALIA ... anyone trying this on the Telstra Defy?

My notebook runs both W7-32 & Ubuntu-derivative: SUPER-OS. I found that in my version of Linux, the Android Windows-based programs run fine under Linux WINE (latest marketplace version).
[Defy Android Development] chaihg:
Thats great. So all you did was run the program using WINE right?. Is there sme driver that I have to install or does it differ from Windows on that issue?

Thanks for the advice.
[Defy Android Development] joergherzinger:
Well, basically this Programme is using ADB and rageagainstthecage so just look for rageagainstthecage somewhere in the forums and follow the instructions and it should be possible to get your device rooted on linux without using any stupid windows binaries.
[Defy Android Development] AgentSmith:
The root procedure seems pretty straightforward except I just don't get what this last step actually means. Does is say to do the whole thing again?? :-/
[Defy Android Development] chaihg:
The point is I am a biologist and know very little of this. But i can find my way given some directions by reading on the net and following these procedures. I have a mac and tried to use the MONO project directions on running this. The program launches but then when i click root, the prompts appear quickly and give a "Failed" for all the processes.

:( Any help on this subject will be a huge bonus for all those mac users. Running this program on Parallels Desktop in windows emulation dint work too. I use RSD lite on mac like that and it works like a gem though.
[Defy Android Development] zepretender:
Windows Vista ask me for ADB drivers... I can't find them. Allready installed MotoHelper...

What can I do ? "waiting for device" is a bit long !

I think so, otherwise try this version http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=955061 <-- I rooted my 2.51 with that
[Defy Android Development] watt9493:
I would also like to know how to unroot in case my phone needs replaced or repaired. Its a little silly sending back a rooted phone dont you think?
[Defy Android Development] SteveChou:
maybe you can use other edition superoneclick to unroot.
[Defy Android Development] xCHPx:
Can you use this on a mac somehow?
[Defy Android Development] huumm:
For Mac, just do the Boot Camp and use this
[Defy Android Development] matrix866:
Yes, I tought that it was easy to remove the root, but I don't know how to remove it.

How can the root on defy be removed? Thanks.

Any news on the Motorola Atrix OTA beta being rooted? If you need to look at it there is a download on this forum.
[Defy Android Development] gianvy:
Thanks for very useful method...

But since i'm a very very "Pro Noob" (MB525 is my first android) i forgot to install windows drivers and obviously my phone wasn't rooted :D

After installing drivers all was ok!

I also tried with oldest SuperoneClick (version 1.7 found still on xda forum) and worked too.

I have an Italian MB525 with 2.1 eclair

Thanks to all!
[Defy Android Development] Simplestas:
Are there sources for SuperOneClick? I wanna make some useful mods :D
[Defy Android Development] bobbyphoenix:
For those who wish to unroot, and since nobody so far knows how, here is a way from fellow XDA member sakitobaki: rooting and UNROOTING

Plug in in Portal mode. Activate Usb Debugging. Execute Superoneclick with Adminrights and then click on root, restart your phone.

If this dont work try this:

Step 1; Turn your android phones USB Debugging OFF.

Step 2: Download and launch Superoneclick with Admin rights on your PC. Then Click Root.

Step 3: When it says: Waiting for Device, Turn USB Debugging ON

Step 4: It’ll now run RATC

Step 5: When it says: Starting ADB Server…

Step 6: Turn your android phones USB Debugging OFF

Step 7: Turn your android phones USB Debugging ON

Step 8: Turn your android phones USB Debugging OFF

Step 9: All BEFORE it says “Waiting for device…” again

Reboot your phone and now it should be rooted

How to UNROOT!

Get an app call 'z4root' available from market. (applanet.net)

There should be an option 'Unroot'. Click it and it will say successfully unroot. However, the superuser permission program is still there and you need to remove it manually. Below steps must be done BEFORE you click unroot in z4root. Otherwise it will not work.

Step 1: Get a paid app call 'Root Explorer' from market (applanet.net)

Step 2: navigate to /system/app. Remember to click the R/W to R/O that's located on top right corner of the program.

Step 3: Find the apk 'Superuser.apk' and uninstall it.

Step 4: Now go to z4root and click unroot.

Step 5: Reboot your phone. Now you phone should be unroot and without the superuser app
[Defy Android Development] jmoore2:
first i would like to thank you for this guide. I have rooted my defy which is running the official UK 2.2.2 rom. After rooting I have noticed that when i capture a picture all i get is a black picture if the flash comes on (either Auto or On) and without the flash I get a perfect picture. I have a green lens defy. Can anyone provide any possible solutions to this problem?

Will this work with official stock orange Froyo, BUILD NUMBER JOREM_U3_3.4.2_177-3 ?

I really want to root my phone but really dont want to break it or camera! I've got red lens if it makes any difference at this stage.
[Defy Android Development] nadalzeal:
thanks for this thread very helpful :D
[Defy Android Development] crz6662:
Might I suggest an easier way, which worked like a charm. Just install like an app. Can't remember if you have to reboot, but it won't hurt.

Not to step on any ones toes, just a thought. Couldn't believe it was so easy.
[Android Apps and Games] MBtechhead:
I need android developer with an market account to help make some apps for me. I have many ideas for paid applications.and if you make the app for me I will let you keep 60% of the profits and 40% for me. The reason I need you to develop them for me is because I am in school, and don't have enough time.so if you message me I will tell you some of my ideas and we will work out the rest .thanks in advance.

[Fascinate General] SirGatez:
I have already downloaded it and will be investigating the possibility of using it soon. :-) Be warned the radios are different.	There maybe also some other changes in api.
[Fascinate General] imnuts:
The Telus Fascinate is essentially a Vibrant. Given that no other SGS Froyo leaks have been ported to our device, I doubt having the source to a Froyo leak will give much more than we already had. It may however get a more stable Froyo release for the GSM models.
[Fascinate General] J Shed:
This. The problem has been with the RIL, basically getting the OS to play nice with the radio. Radios on the Telus Fascinate and the Verizon one are totally different. :(

Kaos is making ridiculous progress though. :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fdomartineza:
Hi

i just updated to 024 rooted, and everything it's ok.

now, I installed voice recognition and on google's search works like a charm (im from chile, and recognized very tricky phrases in spanish), and everything it's ok.

now, i tried several keyboards with voice recognition, like htc_ime, slideit, vlingo and talktome and any of those recognized any spanish word neither phrases.

so i'm wondering, why is that? is that they dont use google's api for translation, how come search by voice is amazing but keyboard voice input sucks?

i googled it and found no answers whatsoever.

EDIT: i tried gingerbread KB but voice input is not able for 2.1 :/

best regards,

HTC today released Aria 2.2 source code..do you think is it possible to root HTC Gratia too?
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tpbklake:
The kernel source code is not the key to rooting a device. The bootloader is locked down and has closed a hole that was previously used to exploit and root the device. The source code that was released today does not include the bootloader code.
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bay Harbor Butcher:
Ok..so I think root for Gratia will never arrive. Bootloader surely has another hole but we need someone who find it out.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
Hi All,

I would like to know if there are any current themes out here that are safe, ok or compatible to be used with a custom JL2 (Bell) ROM?

XDA Member seeARMS has created a fantastic ROM for us JL2 users and he is working on porting some themes at this time and I would like to know if there are any current themes that I could try and perhaps mention to seeARMS so that he could tweak and port them for JL2.

Please advise and if you are running JL2 and would like to flash a FAST and STABLE ROM and keep all the benefits of JL2 then I recommend that you try seeARMS ROM. It can be found in Android Development.

Thanks,

yiannisthegreek
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Electroz:
I don't have JL2 themed, but I did modify it to give me the AOSP lockscreen and version E circle battery mod if you're interested in either of those...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
Id love the battery mod u have. Is it installable from CWM recovery? Can you link me to a picture of the battery mod?

seeARMS custom ROM has the AOSP lockscreen in it so I have that already. Perhaps you could offer your battery mod to seeARMS for his ROM? I think he'd be appreciative of the help! :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Electroz:
That is the battery mod.

Attached is the CWM install .zip

After you install it, make sure you wipe the dalvik-cache in CWM options.... If not, you'll get a ton of force closes upon boot.

seeARMS' rom is a little different (deodexed and zipaligned) than the stock rom I made it from, but it should still work. If it doesn't, let me know. I'll download seeARMS rom and make you a zip to get back to normal :P
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
That would be cool dude. Ill give it a go and let u know how it works...

I just used z4Root on my stock Hero with all of the most recent updates and it worked fine. It's dead simple. Just download the newest version (1.3 I believe) open it in Astro Manager, click the Permanent Root option and you are good to go. I did find that as z4Root was running the "Rebooting" step it didn't seem to be going anywhere. After letting it run for a while I clicked on the Home button and went to my apps and the Superuser app was present. Also my phone had a bit of a lag after doing to root until turned it off, the back on. After that it has been working fine and any app that require superuser access works fine so it appears the root was successful.
