When you buy the phone it should come with cupcake, if not it will tell you that there's an update available and prompt you to download and install it.
Yes, you can return the phone to it's stock "unrooted" firmware whenever you want.
Btw, it's called "rooting" not "jailbreaking"...

ok so is your g1 rooted.. do u like it.. do u think i should... i am a guy in his 20's and i am not mr tech but def. am into tech stuff. so i know somewhat. but i just feel like i should for the third party apps. etc etc.. and if i root it.. will tmobile or google still tell me when there is a update avaiable

Yes, My G1 is rooted. To be honest I was kicking myself for not rooting it sooner, I love it. I can't really tell you if you should do it or not. The great thing about it is you can experiment with different ROMs/firmwares as much as you want or you can just flash one you like and keep it for as long as you want.
If you have root you can
1) Flash ROMs like Cyanogen mod which are optimized for performance.
2) Flash themes to change the look of your phone...
3) Move apps to your memory card so you have more space for them
If any of those appeal to you then you might want to root. Be prepared to read up a bit first, it helps if you know a little bit about linux too. I'm 15 btw, this rooting stuff isn't very hard ;-)

if i root the fone to the youtube video i showed you.. is there anything else i should install or anythign

and if i root the fone.. and like 5 months from now somehtign silly and little happens when i am on the fone with tmobile support when the guy is walking me throuhg somehitng and i didnt tell him its rooted is everythign gonna be different .. and where do i find unrooting directions etc

*Don't* use that video, it's very outdated. There is a much simpler "one-click" method that will do that same thing.
You will always be able to recovery your phone if you are just flashing ROMs. If you're flashing SPLs (your phones bootloader) then there is a possibility you could brick your phone. In that case Tmo should replace your phone as long as you say that it wasn't bricked because of you rooting it. Btw, you really shouldn't worry, G1's are hard to brick.

Download a stable cyanogen rom, flash reboot , check to see all is working, power down, restart into recovery and make a nandroid backup for just in cases, reboot, download cmiupdater to stay up to date but just stick with stable builds unless you what to be a guina pig. Sit back and enjoy a great os, laugh at your friends with crappy iphones

Lets do this! Gloves are off and I am going to 2.2.... help! Rogers

So, the only thing holding me back was voiding the warranty and the fact I have a rogers phone (build EPE54B).... so I think I have to flash the build to the one that matches the update?
Sooooo if anyone wants to point me in the safest, easiest direction... I would appreciate it... and dos and don't would be appreciated as well. I am new to the phone an android, so feel free to dumb it down.
Does the build actually mean anything? What happens once I change it... and official updates come out? I am going to cut the grass... and then root, so help me out (preferably someone that is on rogers and has done this)
thx in advance! Froyo or Brick, here I come!
had a long day with chores and family day.... but I am back at it, first tutorial down and it seems solid...
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
onward!

Let me know how you make out. I'm on Rogers as well and am debating rooting.

Just looking at the stickies in General section would save you from opening yet another thread on the subject

Let me know how it goes for you.
I am on Rogers and experienced EXTREME instability the moment I flashed the Froyo radio. My phone would crash randomly and frequently.
I suspect it was a problem with my hardware and have returned the phone and am waiting for a new one.

thx jack, I appreciate it.... sorry for the thread... but in my experience... it is easier having your hand held by someone experienced.... then assuming I am following the right one, lol.... so I follow that entire thread to go from rogers to whatever build I need? heh
I will try this in approx 2 hours.... when the yard work is done!

early quick question, when I go to "CyanogenMod"
it takes me to a thread, but I do not see the download, what am I not seeing? heh

I am at this part
Type: fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.img
it says cannot load image recovery? thx
well everything was working great up until this point, tried it 100 times, heh... so now I sit and wait for guidance? thx

Mr.Kakarot, have you put the .img in the same folder as fastboot? Or, alternatively, if fastboot is in your PATH, you won't have this problem.

i renamed the image to recovery.img and that seemed to work? I will continue after supper!

followed that first thread to a T and it worked out... had 2 minor stalls but I got through it... I am doing this stuff off and on, thx for that thread... this is going to be a STUPID question I am sure... but following that first thread, what have I done? unlocked, rooted and installed google add ons? phone looks awesome, I will do the rest after supper!

hmmm, got it, lol

done, running 2.2.... so tomorrow at work, i guess I will see if I have any issues....
now that this is done, can I re install that sense ui? What should I do or try now that I have done those 2 tutorials? thx

first off there are no 2.2 froyo/sense roms available as of yet.. so if you want to use a desire rom youre more than likely going to want to downgrade to the latest 2.1 radio that works well with your carrier/area, as froyo has its own radio and needs it to run properly.. once you downgrade.. nandroid>wipe>flash

yea, I did not know it would put me back to 2.1, lol.... went back and then back again to 2.2, lol... sense sure looked good!
Any ideas, suggestions, tips for 2.2? I installed flash! thx

How stable is your phone with the Froyo radio? Any unexplained reboots yet?

well it was quite late by the time I did it, I was playing with it, went to a few flash websites.... and no reboots or shutdowns, I also just woke up.... so I will know today after a full day work/playing, thx
one of the bugs is my camera does not work for video... so I have to update the radio, any suggestions! thx

Nope thats pretty much what you need to do is update the radio

thanks, but I am not gonna lie... still not sure which are radios, roms, senses, lol.... could you point me to the one I need.... or does it matter? thx, I just do not want to brick, obviously!
Also, I did not do this step.... is this what I need to do, or is it unrelated?
11) You should still have root, but if you want BusyBox (or lost root somehow), Cyanogen has done it again! Go back into Recovery and flash froyo-rooter-signed.zip. Then Titanium Backup will work once again.
does not sound like something I need or use, so I did not do it....
as far as stability... my 3g signal looked low all day... but I never had a dropped call, instability or any reboots/crashes.... all is well! thx

[Q] For those of us non-devs - rooting?

So I see from the Development subforum that the Droid 4 hasn't been rooted yet. Correct? Does anyone have a plain english update as to what's going on on that front?
I see there's a bounty on someone's head, or something like that, but that's all I've got.. and I'm not savvy enough to know what to do myself or know what's really happening there. I'd love a one click root method. How far away are we from that functionality?
sorry for the pretty dumb question

No problem. Happy rooting. And be careful!

Root was achieved on this device by djrbliss before it was even released actually, but we still do not yet have a full XML.zip of fastboot images to restore with, so it is very dangerous to make any significant mods at this stage.
I have been pushing all my sources very hard to find this file, but so far everyone has come up empty.
Until we have it we are all working without a safety net because signed factory images are needed to restore a soft bricked device.

Stick to rooting your phone, for the time being. You can disable bloatware, and customize the hell out of the stock ROM that's already on there. That should be enough to get you through, for the time being. Don't get me wrong, we're all salivating over a real safety net.
Go with a simple root or safestrap it. I bricked my phone using safestrap.
Root for now, wait for fastboot files.

New N6 shipped with developer build?

Just bought a brand new N6 and its not downloading any ota's, still on 5.0. The build is LNX07M which is a developer build and apparently will not download any ota's. Has anyone heard of this? Did a quick Google search and there is hardly anything about this build.
I have no access to a computer, am I stuck on this build and 5.0?

because its not "proper", and normally isnt used properly. but ill explaine to you the proper way. you can try an app called kingsroot. you csnt get it at the play store, youll have to search google for it. after you install it, then run it, youll have root. but, youre not done yet. you will want to download the latest twrp recovery for the nexus 6 with your phone and keep it there. then you will unstall flashify from the play store. you will now use flashify to flash the twrp recovery. now, last thing, to get your bootloader unlocked. you will install any bootloader unlock apps, like boot unlocker or similar(that might delete everything from your phone), then youre done. ive never tried this on a nexus, but have on other devices, just so you know.

If you can get to a computer, download this: https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/shamu-mra58k-factory-5b07088c.tgz
It's the Marshmallow (6.0) factory image for the Nexus 6. Run the batch file inside and it'll flash your phone. Note that this WILL wipe it.

It'll be fine. It's the complete system image, so it doesn't matter what you're on currently. Note that you will have to install all sorts of extra crap to get the Android SDK installed and working and the proper drivers, but it's not that hard, just gigs of downloads when everything is all said and done.
Like I said, it WILL wipe your phone completely.

if you can get to a computer..
you can unlock your bootloader with "fastboot oem unlock"
then fastboot flash twrp recovery
then flash a custom kernel wiyh the latest supersu in your new recovery.
and then boot up with root, an unlocked bootloader, and a custom recovery

Not worried about wiping the phone, I've literally only had it for a few hours and nothing is loaded on it.
Would be possible to just install an ota to get me on the right upgrade path? I'm just trying to do the quickest and easiest method possible.

If it's not grabbing an OTA, not sure what else you can do, short of downloading all the OTAs and flashing via recovery. But no guarantee that'll work as you're on a development build... There probably isn't an OTA to go from your development build to a release build.

I linked him to that already. No need to be a **** about it. He was looking for an easy way to do it now, when he doesn't have a computer. **** got crazy, so he asked if it would be easier with a computer, which the answer is yes.
Wouldn't you be excited as **** if you had a new phone? Wouldn't you want to get it up and running as quickly as possible? Well... now he's gotta wait until he has a computer. Obviously installing an OTA and doing the incremental updates would be easier, which is what he was looking for. Since that's not an option, we laid out other ways to go about doing it. So he's getting to a computer tomorrow.

If you do plan on modding it/rooting it/romming it in the future, DEFINITELY unlock your bootloader before you set up the phone or that'll wipe it, too.

He googled his build number and didn't get many hits on it. So he's asking if there's a way to get it up and running tonight without a computer. Seems valid to me.

At that point its a legitamate question. This is a very different situation that is not well covered here, and requires a unique solution not many would come up with.
But "I absolutely have no computer nor laptop access" is pretty different then "I can access one TOMORROW. Sheesh, having something 1 day away is pretty far from it not being a possibility.
And I think you would agree it would be a significantly better idea to wait that day then to proceed with the method you gave (not that it was bad of you to give it... but you tried to differentiate and he held out to avoid being told to do it the hard way)

We are told time and time again that their are no bad questions. Truth is there are more bad questions then good ones.
Him asking about a build that provides few google hits is very legitimate.
Him asking about doing it without a computer because he doesn't have one is legitimate.
It only becomes an issue when he doesn't get the answer he wants, and all of a sudden he does have computer access.
And given that he is going to proceed in a computer... It becomes nothing more then "How do I update my phone?", which is VERY well documented.
I not only gave him the link to the information he needed, AND even corrected the information pointing out that the flashall script fails and that he would need to use the second method listed in the instructions I linked him to (since I know he will likely have limited time to fail and figure out whats wrong)
"That's the exact opposite of what you're saying you strive to do. I don't get it."
Then let me explain.
Would you skip your homework, ignore your textbook, then show up to class asking your teacher to explain it again? We are here to help... but how or why should I care more about it then he does? With no attempt made to learn, how much should I care to teach him?
Its a pretty big **** you to all those who have spend countless hours documenting this stuff to help new people to ignore their work and tell someone to do it again.

rooted sm-n910t3 Note 4 phone and now have error messages. please help with recovery.

Before coming across the link in this forum here at http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...y-steps-n910t3-dofc-dog1-how-to-root-t3177225 ...
I thought I could shortcut all the work by going to the auto root chainfire site to download the actual CF Auto Root File for model sm-n910t3. I successfully flashed that file using odin. It went into a bootloop and then I freaked out.
The error messages when I turn on the phone first show
"kernal is not seandroid enforcing" in red, and
"Set Warranty Bit: kernal" in yellow writing.
After being in this bootloop i went to the link posted above and followed each step by step. My phone is successfully rooted now and I can log in to my phone fine. However, there are two problems. First, those error messages are still there. How do I get rid of that? I tried a factory reset on my phone and it wont do it.
Will get to that after. Second, when I go into twrp by hitting volume up+home+power, once im in there it wont allow me to backup my current rom. It says an error message about E:/ data mount or something like that. And also while in twrp it won't let me factory reset my phone. So the recovery program is pretty useless to me. I don't know why it doesn't work properly.
Where do I go from here? Can someone help me out in fixing this error message and getting a recovery program to work? I'm just wondering why the twrp that I flashed while following that root guide above does not work. Has anyone ever encountered those two error messages while turning on their phone? Thanks.

So other people have those messages on the top of their phone after rooting this device? Im guessing we just ignore that message then? I thought it was there because I flashed the wrong kernal before doing it the right way and following the forum...
What if I flashed the original firmware for this note 4 phone that I have a copy of, then root the phone going through that tutorial step by step? Wouldn't that get rid of the error messages? And my twrp would work then?
Im not able to make a backup of my current rom. And Im not even able to factory reset this phone. This is a problem for me since I want to put marshmallow on here soon. When I do I get an error message. Part of my second question is wondering why twrp isn't working correctly?

please help
i took my battery out to charge it and put a new one in. now it wont even boot up. it turns on and says
"custom binary blocked by FRP"
"secure fail: kernal"
for those of you who followed my other post i rooted my phone and tripped knox. phone was giving a message but would still turn on. where do i go from here? i have everything backed up and can start fresh. please provide step by step instructions on how i can fix this phone. thank you so much in advance and god bless.

I went to samsung and downloaded the firmware for this device and then flashed it. Now it's back to normal so you can disregard my post. Thanks guys.

scary

#UberNoob Drink your ovaltine. You should probably get an iPhone.
Everything worked as expected you are just so inexperienced you just gave us a play by play of your ignorance and then went running scared from the fear of 2x hello worlds and the unknown right back to momma Samsung. Good post

Easy dude, that's not how things are done around here.

Ubernoob?
Drink my ovaltine? Hash tag for uber noob? Didn't your parents raise you to not say something if you have nothing nice to say at all? Apparently not so who's really the ignorant. Ask yourself that question. Ignorance is bliss. That's a good hashtag huh.
And the bottom line is that we were all beginners at one point right? So cut me some slack im learning. It will take me time to get to where you guys are at. Yes I am brand new to this stuff and no I don't like the iphones. Androids are more user friendly. I like Samsung phones and want to learn more about them.
Its people like you that keep us beginners from wanting to come back to this website, when guys say blatantly rude comments. It shouldn't be a bashing forum. Let's all chill and get along.
