hy,i am at the beggining with the android development, i just got a motorola milestone(2.1),can anyone tell me how can i manage to install apps on my sd card.my phone is rooted. i know that this question my have been asked here,but i couldn't follow any instruction here yet,thanks a lot
you can use the G.O.T. OpenRecovery Apps2SD crack in the OR menu...
but with 2.1, there is no "official" way to do it within the OS.
get GOT-OR HERE
Honestly... apps2SD isnt really needed, unless you have ALOT of crap and want to free some space. It really has alot more hype than really needed.
thx, do you know if the froyo official update will suport this?
Use the newest got openrecovery and install app2sd.wprks fine for me

Try APP2CARD. It works for me. The app is not in the market. Search from Google

I'm on the fence as to if I should root my Droid. I'm getting the message to install the 2.2 ota and part of me wants to take it but I've been wanting to root for a while now.
How much benefit would I get using cm vs stock android?
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
since i'm getting all these views and no replies, perhaps I should clarify. As far as I can tell, the only thing that really interests me about rooting is the ability to run custom themes and change my boot animation and all that. I've heard that CM is faster than stock android so that's appealing as well, but not as much as the ability to use themes and stuff.
What say you?
if i were you i would update to 2.2 and use easyroot or universalandroot to overclock then wait for a better root to come out where you can load custom roms etc.
Download Universal Androot. Press Root. Then after the process is done, reboot your phone. You are now rooted. After doing so, download ROM Manager (Free version) and flash CWMod Recovery and then install CyanogenMod. Then, buy the Premium Version from the market and while that is downloading, use the App menu in settings to back up your apps to your SD Card after the Premium is done downloading. Go back into ROM Manager and download and install one of jdLfg's kernels. You now have a ludicrously fast phone with a ridiculous amount of themes for your ROM. And all of this will take about 15, maybe twenty minutes at most.
(No, you don't need to wipe to install CyanogenMod)

Wow, thanks. I had no idea I could do it all from the phone like that.
What's the advantage to the paid rom manager vs the free one? Does the paid have access to more stuff?
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
Pay the few cents and support the dev. This such a useful you won't regret it. Makes and restore of of your ROMsnso much easier.
Sent from my Moto Droid using XDA App
I don't have a problem supporting the dev, I was just curious if there were additional features in the paid version. You know, to make it worth our while to pay.
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
I believe you have to have the paid version to download ROMs through the app.
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
@ L or anyone else who can help
I followed your instructions and the ROM manager wont work... should i not have already had 2.2 before doing this?
Universal Androot should have installed Superuser Permissions which should allow RM to install ROMs. If you are "stuck at M" flash SP then flash CWMod Recovery again and try to reinstall the ROM that you want.
And no, it does not matter which update you were running before you rooted. If the RM installs aren't working, then download which ROM you want from the internet and flash that.

Install "market enabler", I think your phone has to be rooted with super user access.

I believe newer versions of it are called "market access". You can get it here: http://amip.tools-for.net/android/MarketAccess
In the future, please put questions in the dedicated Q&A forum, and remember that the forums are searchable - there are already threads about this question that have been here nearly since release.

Sorry, apparently it's actually a fork.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
market access doesn't alway work with every rom. I can be running an i9000 rom and still not be able to download some apps (Live Scores for example) when set to any of the other markets. I can install Eugene's rom based on the Vibrant and be able to download apps like Live Scores.
I get this install complete message from my update. Zip file but when my phone boots up I don't get the super user message and I install the screenshot app. For root phones only and it tells me not rooted. Any ideas why I'm not rooted yet?

I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. I followed the instructions correctly. It finds the zip and starts installing then reboots and nothing changed. I'm currently at work. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? So when I get home I can jump right into rooting my phone

Did I say to use it for lagfix?....no but even someone who can't read well can use it to root....literally rooting for dummies
You were having trouble so I tried pointing you I'm the direction for easiest root method...heck you don't even have to know how to follow directions to use it
It's funny you talk down on somebody without even doing your research. If you did you would know that the app doesn't root your phone anymore. Thanks for the help tho I do appreciate it

I have saved on my computer Ryan's z4root.apk from 2-3 weeks ago, that will still Root won't it if I ever need on Stock 2.1.1?
I'd suppose it would - he just had to take out the root feature for some reason. The application wasn't defective.
I've just rooted using universal androot new beta version and its a permanent root. So now for installing CM7 our any other do I have to root again using long steps or is it okay to proceed?

There are no long steps. Most of the roms keep you root after installing them, but just in case if you dont have root after installing a rom, just use Universal Androot because it's very easy and it's one click root(happens very fast).
I've already rooted using universal androot

All of the AOSP based ROMs (like CM) give you root automatically.
The issue you have is that you need a custom recovery in order to install the ROMs. These custom recoveries (OpenRecovery and drivatives) will allow you to do all sorts of neat stuff.
So, no...you don't need to re-root once you install CM7.
Actually, how do you lose root?
It's happened a couple of times that I run Titanium backup and it tells me that I'm not rooted.
It's an easy fix. I just goto AOR and do it again.
But I'm just curious as to how I can get unrooted like that.
But do we need to root for open recovery to install?

No root is necessary on a milestone (may be different on droid).
You just need to flash the vulnerable recovery and the install OR.

On most phone, root is necessary to install custom or vulnerable recoveries.
On milestone, there is no need to do this as this step is taken care of by the SBF flashing in RSD.

That link doesn't work.
Anyway, I remember that I did not have to root the phone.
The first step was applying the vulnerable sbf.
Then I was able to load androidiani openrecovery.
Once in open recovery, I could apply a ROM without root.
Heck, I think root is just an afterthought during this process.
Root is just another menu item in AOR.... the hard part was getting into AOR in the first place.
For whatever mysterious reason, I lost root a couple of times over the last couple of weeks.
CM6 didn't stop working. Titanium backup did stop working but it was nice enough to tell me that I was no longer rooted.
No big deal. I just went into AOR and rooted again.
Edit: No wonder I had deja vu... I kinda mentioned that last bit on page 1 already...
Yeah for some strange reason the link isn't working I'll try and fix it if possible

Hi all,
About a month ago i bought my nexus s and i am very happy with it.
But i do have a problem. It seems to be stuck on market version 2.3.6 while a new version is available for weeks now.
I want to update it and i have tried everything google advices on their site but with no luck. Since i am not a fan of rooting and installing non official stuff i am kind of stuck.
Does anyone know a way to get the latest version without rooting?
Thnx,
Pele

You don't need to remove the old market, just download the apk and run/install it. Simple.
Thanx everyone, i found and installed the new market app.
But still i am wondering why google didnt push it to my nexus. They are trying to stop fragmentation but arent even distributing their own software properly.
