[G2 and Desire Z General] OdiemanSAM:
Really? Ok sorry I am still a bit of a noob with all this but look into the xda post at http ://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision (without the space after the http) and in the contents secttion click on 8.2 the unlock section. Read about how with radio versions above 3.2.xx won't work with GFREE... what version is xx... there is 2 I have found but read HOW IT SAYS THAT HTC... oh wait let me paste it... "The reason for this is that HTC patched the hole that allowed scotty2 to power cycle the emmc chip to drop its write protection." Man... you know when I posted that on cyanogen I had not been in this community but about 5 or 6 months, sorry I am not as well versed but I did do my research and read and tried and read and tried EVERY method there is on the web... none of which said anything about psneuder... oh and if you actually read my post I SAID THAT RAGE WORKED BUT GFREE WOULDN'T!!! I got root shell both in terminal and adb shell so what's psneuder gonna do for me? Oh AND 3.2.26_M is the highest radio there is for the G2? Why is it then I have a 4.2.xx radio firmware... ON MY PHONE... SENDING THIS FROM MY PHONE ON IT!!! Look... I am not trying to spread rumors... maybe if I had found psneuder things might have been different but hey I did figure out how to get the job done. I don't want agknowledgement I was just trying to bring the posibility of HTC DOING TO THE G2 WHAT THEY DID TO THE DESIRE Z. Riddle me this batman... if htc found out what was going on and how to fix it from being rooted do you really believe that the ones being put together, eepromed, flashed, and tested would not magically find some slight kernel mod or even a patch to close it? "...patched the hole that allowed scotty2 to power cycle the emmc chip to drop its write protection."(sorry this part of the thread where I derived my hypothisis) Guhl don't get me wrong... you are one of the people I have been espiring to be like... I respect your input, your knowledge, and your work in the community. Do you really believe because it hasn't yet gotten to most G2's being sold, which is why I deducted what I did, that MAYBE htc was while literally BUILDING the phone that experts that built the thing wouldn't be able to put a fix in the kernel or whatever to seal the holes, and maybe it will be added to the next OTA. Look I was trying to bring my situation to the community and put the posibility that htc would do something like that. No offence but the fact that so many of you "SENIOR" developers are so dismissive to ideas and hypothesis' makes me wonder why... is it because you haven't had it happen to you? I hope you understand that I thoroughly respect you and all the "Leaders" in the community but why does everyone dismiss something that "could" be happening and what I thought was the situation with me... maybe psneuder is the difference but I never said "THIS IS WHAT'S HAPPENING AND YOU BETTER GET READY!!!" I said this is what happened and what I preceived to be going on... that's why I brought it to the community and gave the steps it took me to do what I did to get MY phone, sent to me from the htc factory(yes it was the sending address on the package), rooted. When I started the post I WAS foolish and thought a little too far into it before consulting the communtity, and I do appologize for that, but once you told me about misc_version and psneuder what happened to the post? I changed it... I told people that read my post that your misc_version is the prefered way, even the title from how to root a new G2 to how to root a G2 another way. I have actually had 12 people contact me and tell me they had the same situation... nothing they tried worked until they did what I did... I don't know that's why I put it out there as a what if. I do not want to become a "black sheep" in the community; I just want to explain my position. I hope you all understand that I don't want to "spread rumors" but I have had people tell me that they had the issue I had... I did ask them if the tried psneuder and none of them heard of it either. Just a thought... maybe the how to root threads should take out rage and put in psneuder... no? In ending I want to, again, say thank you to you (and all devs) for everything you have, am, and will do in this community. Your contributions and posts wouldn't have allowed me to "know" as little as I do if they were never written or built or talked about or used or... or... so Thank You!!!!
