I recently tried to root my phone. Now I canceled my internet services so I can't pass the Google registration setup unless I activate wireless. However I can't install ADB because the phone is not on USB debugging nor can I bypass the google registration. So I am stuck, can someone help me? Thank you very much.
How far did you get into rooting, what recovery do you have?
I just downgraded my g1.

I need some serious help guys. I've been trying to unlock my phone for about 2 days and until today I wasn't able to connect to my computer(had the wrong cord). Now I have successfully rooted my phone but am unable to get the apps I need because I can't access the android market place. The reason I can't is because the phone is locked to bell and I purchased it from a friend and now need to unlock it so that I can use it on telus. Really stuck here. I've been using this video as a guide but once the galaxy unlock apps show up, I am unable to continue because I haven't found a way to get them on my phone!! Please help... many thanks..... I realize now I can't post the link but it is called "Unlock Samsung Galaxy S from stock Android 2.2 Froyo". I found it on this site.
Very confusing here.
Unlocking is not related to the connection on your pc.
So what you have to do.
Root your phone with a kernel (CF root) or another kernel.
Then you will get access to the superuser (root)
Only with that you are able to unlock you phone with a special app.
Access to market you will also get trough wlan. Or you have to load you apk´s directly from you computer to the sgs.
Read the manual if it will not work or read xda.. (kies, usb probklems ect..)
Okay, so I used superoneclick to root my phone. I now have superuser available on my phone now. My real issue is accessing the app that unlocks the phone because I am unable to access the market. The reason I can't access the market is because the phone itself has no data services and is not currently on a network(although it is locked to Bell).
I guess what I need to know is how to load the apk directly from my computer to my phone.. and how do I get the apk's without having a google account connected to the sgs? Thanks for the response
Have you tried to use WiFi?
Yea, I have... I'm unable to access any internet or data through the phone!
Give me your email and i can send you the apk.
But to be honest. I'm sure you will find that on google

Hey.
I messed with a phone who had the pattern-lock and after enough tries it locked the phone informing me I needed the proper e-mail address and password. It's a phone's friend by the way.
He can't remember his right e-mail, so that end is lost.
Is there a way to bypass this unlock without wiping the entire phone? Through adb or something? Even a way to plug his phone and back-up all his stuff so it won't go to waste.
I really need your help here, thank you very much in advance.
I recently purchased a HTC One and it's T-Mobile branded, so I wanna Root my phone to get updates faster and be able to run apps with Airplay and stuff.
The problem I (and many other Mavericks users) have is with the Android File Transfer software.
I can install and rut it, but it won't recognize my HTC One. It keeps giving the same message about how I need
to connect my HTC One.
There are workarounds to acces the files (like connecting via WiFi through an IP-address or use the HTC software), but I think it's not possible to root the phone without direct acces to the files as with AFT, or is it?
I wanna make sure I can run the script before I brick my phone.
Can any of you guys confirm I can run the script without AFT?

I can help u bootloader unlock and root the phone
Follow these instructions to set up fastboot and adb
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1917237
go to
htcdev.com
create an account and choose bootloader unlock option. Choose All other Supported Devices in the dropdown list
follow the instructions to successfully bootloader unlock ur device. This will delete ur data, so make a backup
Once ur successfully bootloader unlocked, quote me and post it. Ill tell u how to continue
Getting the android file transfer program to run and getting the adb/fastboot/androidSDK set up are different issues.
By far, the latter is more important. You simply can't root without it. If adb is working you can use the commands adb push or adb pull to move files on and off the device.
If you really feel like you need the android file transfer app, read http://trjlive.com/2013/10/guide-android-file-transfer-mac-osx-mavericks/ for an explanation of the problem and a possible workaround.

hello everyone....after days of trying and searching I've decided to make a thread to see if I can get some help... I'm trying to root my phone to enable tethering, but I first need to unlock the bit loader. However, although I do have a laptop, I only have internet access on my phone. Is there a way I can unlock boot loader and root my phone without having internet access on another device? I've viewed several threads but I'm not very savvy when it comes to rooting and they all use terms I'm not familiar with...any help is appreciated.

If you stopped and thought about what you are trying to do you could just download the stuff you need onto your phone and then connect the laptop and transfer the stuff over you would not need internet on the laptop just yet...
Or you know, McDonald's has free WiFi haha.
Yes those are both options, the problem is all the tutorials that are on here are using terms um unfamiliar with... I'll continue to research tho

Well what is it that you're unfamiliar with? Everyone has to learn somehow and since you're actually trying to help yourself I'm willing to help you I just don't care to help people who won't even try to help themselves, but what are you trying to do?
I'm kind of in the same boat I've rooted a couple other phones but my HTC seems to be way over my head. Really it's the unlocking of the boot loader that gets me. I have WiFi and pc and little knowledge but is there an easier way to root my 510
Newbie90, same boat as you with the 510 but I can't definitely give u a heads up on what to do for your current predicament.
1- go to htcdev website (google is your friend), get yourself an account and validate it... you'll have to get the drivers for sure...
2- download fastboot (i'm sure you can figure this one out too, you can also get it from htc dev), if you're doing this on your phone, make sure you copy it to your pc (says desktop\fastboot)
since you're going to be needing to be in download mode, you will lose internet connectivity obviously, so might be a good idea to head on out to mc d's so your laptop has access to the htc dev site to get your bootloader unlock (access to email as well)
3- put yourself in download mode (from powered off state, press and hold power and volume down)
4- open your desktop\fastboot folder, click the file menu and open an administrator prompt here
5- type fastboot.exe oem get_identifier_token
6- you'll have to copy/paste some text into the htv dev site
7- you'll get an email with a unlock_code.bin that you'll have to download to the fastboot folder and the contiuation of the instructions
8- flash the bootloader unlock, i don't remember the command but it's in the instructions
an auto restart and that's it
once you're bootloader unlocked you can root/flash ROM etc... but now where i'm stuck with this handset is getting it carrier unlocked!
Hello, I rooted my s20 FE 4g and uninstalled bloatware with Lucky Patcher. I always freeze the apps first to check if it works. Then I froze the "Device Services" app and my smartphone is now locked. Unfortunately, I also disabled USB debugging. Luckily I was able to connect the smartphone to the PC because I was fast enough to set up the data transfer. The smartphone still starts normally, but after about 5 seconds the message "Phone blocked (6084)" appears. "Your phone is blocked because Device Services was uninstalled without authorization." As I said, I just froze the app. Fortunately, in the 5 seconds before the message came, I was able to connect my smartphone to the PC to save data. How can I unlock my smartphone now? Please help me I'm desperate! Thanks!
Is there a way, a tool or something similar to unfreeze the app? It would probably be possible with ADB, but unfortunately, as I said, I disabled USB debugging.
a factory reset will bring device services back. or a less extreme method would be doing an install command for the correct package name for device services from ADB.
Factory reset check on this video if you can't boot into recovery.
