Can the 2.27.651.6 build be rooted?

I have the latest build of Android 2.1 for Sprint hero and I wanted to know if it can be rooted. I dropped down to the .5 build but my gps wouldnt work and a few other things wouldn't work. I mostly just want wireless tethering but I need to root my phone but I don't want to lose any functionality. Anyone have any advice for me?

Did you tried this you device http://unrevoked.com/m/ ?
Download the APP, then run it.

I just used that app and I don't think It worked. I have the wireless tether 2.0.5-pre3 and when I try to run it it says my kernel
Doesn't have all the necessary features to run the app. Am I using the wrong WiFi tether app?

There is no method for obtaining root with that version. You have to flash the 2.27.651.5 RUU and then use the link provided earlier. Once you have root then you can install one of the 2.27.651.6 ROMs if you want.

I did it using this. Went through a lot of other "solutions" first, but they didn't apply to my phone/build apparently. This worked perfectly!
and apparently I'm to new to post to "external" links, even though it's elsewhere on this site.

You'll need a custom kernel/ROM on your phone for wireless tether to run properly.

uhhhm not sure.. maybe you can install the apk with file manager..? not sure if neet root for usb tethering though..

Try PDA-Net It works pretty good. It has a paid and a free version. Here is the website http://www.junefabrics.com/android/
Oh and no you don't need a rooted phone. Just install the Windows or Mac app and it will also install the Android app to your phone.
Works great on the G1.

you need custom kernel,as x8's stock kernel doesnt support tether...

yep PDANet is a app...download and install it from market and when u opened it it will ask PDANet for PC to download...download it and install it on pc..then u can tether....

You need to install the ip tables to tether on stock. Search for it.

You can use pdanet for usb tethering. You have to install pdanet client software on yr windows- you can download it from Junefabrics website.. download pdanet app from market and install it on your phone.. don't forget to turn On usb debugging on yr phone.. just connect yr phone to pc using usb cable..

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.

[Q] Eclipse ADT sees my device but adt debugging doesn't work

I used to write apps for my phone and run them through adb, but recently I tried to do it and I realized I can't. USB drivers are installed, eclipse sees my phone, in android console it writes that application is installed but on my phone the app is not installed and won't run. But if I install the apk manually and then try to run it, it runs without any problems so I don't think there's any error in the code. Can you please help me?

Hi fellow dev!
What version of Eclipse are you using?

I am having the exact same problem. I have spent hours on this. Phone shows online but nothing launches. Did you find a solution?
Thanks,
