[Q] root question

I recently lost my htc hero and have just received a new one from insurance and it is updated to the 2.32.651.2 software. I have been searching around, but have not been able to find any way to root this. If anyone could help it would be great, thanks

You might have to downgrade your software through HTC's RUU. I don't have the file but someone will post it eventually.

1. Goto XDA Hero CDMA forums (which, I guess, you know how to...)
2. Click on "Search this forum"
3. Enter "2.32.651.2"
4. Hit Enter
5. Enjoy!
Don't tell me that you did not find posts for rooting this update, I just ran a search and found atleast 3...

Did it yesterday and it works! If you just want to root, go ahead with z4root. If you experience lag after rooting, just reboot and your good to go if you dont plan on flashing any roms. Link to z4root in post.

[Q] MIUI and Moto Droid

I am thinking about putting MIUI on my friends Droid 1 on verizon, and I would need to do it tomorrow. I have a gs2 and had a captivate so i'm used to the way it all works on the samsung devices but not on the Motorola ones.
So i guess i had a few quick questions,
Does Miui work well on the droid, it appears to with the forums?
to install it it appears i just use rom manager with root is this correct?
Do i need to get root and install clockwork? or does this not need clockwork?
and are there any unbrick methods like odin for samsung?
I know i really should be searching and I'm starting my search when i finish this post but if anyone is feeling generous and knows the links to the forums or answers to any of the questions above or just advice i'd appreciate it.

To get back to stock, flash stock sbf using rsdlite.

Unrooting a P1010

Because the P1010 is the unloved orphan of the Tab world, I take all general Tab technical instructions that I read with a grain of salt when it comes to actually using them on this version of the box. While I used SuperOneClick to successfully root it with no problems, and I see that big fat Unroot button sitting there, I would just like to hear from anyone who has successfully unrooted their P1010 using SOC. Anyone have any caveats at all on this?

Update: For the faint of heart like me, just a note that SOC Unroot does indeed work for the P1010.

Bump, I followed the tutorial for rooting from here and would like to unroot it since I don't think it was rooted properly. Rooted apps like SuperUser give errors. I upgraded to Gingerbread and then rooted using this method and not SuperOneClick: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520859
Just wondering how it gets unrooted using that same method since SuperOneClick seems to not work on my device.

I rooted mine without any problems at all using a different tutorial. I'll see if I can find the link when I next get back to my PC.
The 1010 does seem to be Samsung's dirty little secret but there are still some members who have it. I know a lot more about modding than when I got it so I'm about to try to do some clever stuff with it.
If it works, and if there's enough interest, I'll just have to share it here.

[Q] Is there any Temp Root for the Razr I

I am wondering if there's a way to temp root the XT890. Will some of the available tools work with this device?

Hi,
Thank you, I was hoping for something "less intrusive". I normally have Android phones I buy from the US so I normally don't care about warranty, but I'm getting this one for under 400USD without contract nib here in Mexico, so I want to mess as little as possible with warranty... Seems as if I will be looking for the root method that doesn't require bootloader unlocking...
Regards

[Q] Help: JB has ruined my phone. Need ICS back!

JB is freezing my phone, my shift kept no longer functions and half the things don't work. I tried to factory reset and it still has all of the same issues, none of these happened during ICS. Please help, Verizon customer.

i'm in the same boat as you, i really need ICS back, updated on accident now i can't use the hotspot app, i really don't wanna have to go on ebay and buy a stock droid 4.

and there is no guarentee buying a stock phone will have ics anyway, droid 4 originally came with GS. 2.3.6

There is no way to go back to ICS.
The Mobile Hotspot app works just fine under JB as it did under ICS and GB. The SQL database hack still works, at least it still works on mine, my wife's and my sister's D4's.

Why can't you use the hotspot app? If you are rooted, you can make it work, no problem.
Cheers,
Steve.

I am not rooted, or familiar with that process, I didn't want to brick my phone, what is this SQL work around and does it require being rooted? And what are the dangers involved with rooting? Also, is there a concise guide to rooting a Droid 4 or the SQL workaround that can be linked?

Well if you want to sbf your droid 4 to stock JB rom the file just got posted up today

First off, rooting will void your warranty. As a user in the UK, that warranty was of no use to me anyway, but if you are a Verizon customer, then it's something to be aware of.
If you are happy with that caveat, you should be able to root your phone using the Razr Blade exploit available here... http://vulnfactory.org/public/razr_blade.zip
To get the hotspot working, you need to follow the first two steps here... http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-4-hacks/208266-how-wi-fi-tether-droid-4-a.html (the item number may differ, the important thing to look for is the Entitlement Check entry).
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Steve.
