make sure you have usb debugging enabled.
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.

You will have to flash your stock rom. It's available here on xda. I recommend using a windows 7 pc and a program called odin3 1.7. Don't worry too much, there's lots of insructions. Read everything twice.

Quick and easy root check?

Hi guys. Just followed the guide on how to root LQ2 and all went well I think. Whats the quickest and easiest way to check that I have root? Super user is installed and opens.

Download a app that requires root and see if it can get root access

Just look if you have "Superuser" or "Super SU" installed.
You can download titanium backup for example and check if it requests root access. You can also try this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck
Guys thanks for quick reply. I downloaded root explorer and it asked for access. This was a bit of a daft thread but I had a total mind blank on easiest way to check.it.

You should be able to paste a file to the system folder if your note has root. Use a program like ES file explorer to enable root and write on the system folder.
This is the one thing I am having a problem with actualy. Trying to move the S3 contacts into system folder but get failed message. Any idea?

If you're on gingerbread. Search for Megatron root in this forum. Otherwise ICS is out and is easily rooted.

this you will need: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2144738 (use this to flash recovery/bootloader)
this is what i used after the completed above step: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903752 (this is for root) (worked on my thrill) (it does root but super user doesnt show in menu)
this is how i got mine to root I was first stuck till trying this but sometimes it may take twice for it to work a good way to see if Super user is working is to download something like WiFi tether this is how i knew this method i tried to work I have official ICS on my phone
here you go...

App says it won't work on rooted device.. Any solution?

I'm trying to install an app but it won't work on a rooted device. Anyone know a good work around?
Unroot. There is no work around. Some apps don't allow root for security purposes.
Ps I've used two nandroids to work around one rooted and the other not.
