Hi to all
I'm starting to try root my tattoo
After installed Android SDK i've followed any (how-to-root) all other most commercial android-phones like magic, hero, etc.
But nothing happens on my tattoo. Many "how-to-root" guides tells to begin the rooting starting from two points.
or flashing with a rooted ROM
or typing "adb shell" command and blablabla
I think that the good way to root our tattoo is the second way.
I've tried to inject the superuser in my tattoo but no hope for the moment.
Your support is much welcomes

@Sengine
you cant use the methods out there to root your tattoo. Most methods out there are for the android cupcake i.e 1.5(dream, hero etc) and the tattoo runs android 1.6. Also the first step to rooting your phone is getting a custom recovery image, and as far as i know no such recovery image exists for the tattoo yet. I had a tattoo for a week, sold it and got a hero instead.
@above
Can you at least turn your phone on? try turning it on pressing power and back if u can enter fastboot mode (three android guys on skateboards). then try flashing your phone with the official RUU. Instructions are available on this forum itself. But if you cant even turn your phone on..and the computer doesnt recognise it at all. im sorry to inform you, you may have bricked your phone.
@Sengine
Donot use the methods out there unless they specify that they are safe for the tattoo. else you may brick your phone.
@eldrid: where does the custom recovery image which works on the hero comes from? perhaps we can contact its developer and ask for help.
the most "famous" recovery images for G1&Magic&Hero&Nexus One are made by Amon Ra
Thank You for your support...
But i want to begin a discussion about "which first steps to do for root Tattoo ???"
- Take a recovered ROM and working on to try to have superuser?
- Try via ADB SHELL?
- etc...
Please post your comments.
Have you taken a look at superboot for t-mobile pulse on modaco forum?How the boot.img has been modified?Maybe that will help.

Thanks. Reading that said article now.
EDIT: I think we may have stuck gold....
Any development on this regarding Tattoo?
I can't understand why we cannot downgrade our Donut roms to cupcake like other devices with the G1 method. Since its the same ROM, what is special about this if we have both kernels we can compare differences bassically so find out the method, true?

Donut and Cupcake are two different setups. One has patches and stuff from cupcake, the other is just a vanilla cupcake.
The thing is that we're stuck on getting the device to allow rooting - the same issue with the Eris. It's driving us insane, but perisistance and a few beers should carry us to the finishing line.
All the G1 exploits have been found and fixed in the HTC Click (Tattoo), so we're pretty much stuck. Unless fastboot can do us a favor, well....
You may want to do the process outlined in modaco's "Superboot" thread. If you can get your device to reboot and load into Android when you upload that boot.img file, try a su and see if we have root.
Other than that, it's a no-go. We'll get there, we need time to revise the plan.
I would recommend Tattoo people and devs to look into kernel exploits and bootloader exploits, like Eris people are doing right now, it may the the last chance of actually being able to root the Tattoo, unless somebody gets their hands on a HTC signed S-OFF bootloader ;P
I just purchased my nexus one today from a lady that had it brand new in box she never used it etc. when i got it i turned it on with my sim in and it worked great was even able to update to 2.3.4, i got home and decided hey id like to load some custom roms. however ive never done this, i also have a galaxy s 4g ive been trying to figure out how to load custom roms on for the past 2 weeks and im just over whelmed with all of the information in most of these posts. half of it i dont seem to understand, just wondering is anyone out there able to walk me through via IM on gtalk or yahoo messenger on rooting my nexus one and running a custom rom on it? Just looking for someone thats not busy and has some time to spare, ive messaged a few people but have not received any responses. but let me know Thanks!
ive installed pdanet, i tried loading passion frg33 and renaming it and putting on my sd card to downgrade since i guess cant root 2.3.4. but it says old version. that was one of the many guides ive read that told me to do that so im not sure just stuck scratching my head i guess.
Ok well when you say "old version" I'm going to guess that it says "main version is older" which means that you got the new main version so you'll need to use a different passimg file http://api.viglink.com/api/click?format=go&drKey=1105&loc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusoneforum.net%2Fforum%2Fnexus-one-general-discussion%2F12112-nexus-one-oracle.html&v=1&libid=1308893507029&out=http%3A%2F%2Ftinyurl.com%2F6bym3vg&ref=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusoneforum.net%2Fforum%2Fsearch.php%3Fsearchid%3D243391&title=The%20Nexus%20One%20Oracle%20-%20Nexus%20One%2FNexus%20S%20Forum%20-%20Google%20Phone%20Forum&txt=http%3A%2F%2Ftinyurl.com%2F6bym3vg
Now I know you said IM of some sort but I'll just try and drop it in this thread if you don't get it then I'll help you on gtalk of something.
Now what you need to do is rename the file above "passimg.zip" now if your on windows this will be "passimg" because on windows the extension is hidden.
After you do that you will be able to root with superoneclick all you'll need to do is set up the drivers download and extract this file http://api.viglink.com/api/click?format=go&drKey=1105&loc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusoneforum.net%2Fforum%2Fnexus-one-development-hacking%2F10940-simple-sdk-setup-manual-root-guide-windows.html&v=1&libid=1308894048581&out=http%3A%2F%2Fdb.tt%2F10De9hz&ref=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusoneforum.net%2Fforum%2Fnexus-one-development-hacking%2F&title=Simple%20SDK%20setup%20and%20manual%20root%20guide%20(Windows)%20-%20Nexus%20One%2FNexus%20S%20Forum%20-%20Google%20Phone%20Forum&txt=http%3A%2F%2Fdb.tt%2F10De9hz (credit for this goes to danger-rat) boot the phone into fastboot (hold trackball while powering up) and connect to the computer via usb, computer should ask for drivers select manual and point it to the "usd-drivers" folder from the file you just extracted.
Now all you have left to do is run superoneclick from the tools directory of the file you extracted.
thanks man imma try that right now ill let you know asap how it goes.
so it went to 2.2.1 i attempted to root using super one click but got no love. ran an older version that i used to root my galaxy s 4g and tried to do rageagainst the cage like i did with that one for my galaxy s 4g and it rooted it. do you think your able to message me on gtalk? my id is [email protected]

Flash new recovery.
Then flash superuser apk.
It's not that hard, and there are plenty of tutorials that show you how to do this, including the wiki.
Search. Read.
Read the "Root" section in Wiki. Look at my signature.
Ok well like he said in his first post he read some of the info and doesn't understand most of it, so I took the liberty of helping him he is now rooted and running cm7.0.3 with dt installed and everything.
Just throwing that in there so you guys know.
Good for you Dude! xD
I have a verizon wireless droid 3..
I think the verizon part matters right? lol anyways, i just rooted m phone tonight and ive downloaded root explorer, root uninstaller, rom manager, and ti backup. id really like to "flash"(is that proper?) a new rom onto my phone. I understand one of the major options is steeldroid. /what else do i need to download to my pohne to get this rom? Im a complete noob when it comes to android. Period. I came from the sheltered world of blackberries.
I read a thread on another site which was a walkthrough and gave links, but the bootstrap link asks me question i dont have answers to. Help? :/ i download stuff to my computer?
a lot of explanations and links are in the 1st post from this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1278056
under "Flashing instructions:"
Just get a bootloader so you can get Clockwork installed and you can install the ROM from there. Just read up about it.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
bootloader? Is our bootloader unlocked?? we have a hijack bootstrap and 2nd-init but yes I would suggest grabbing hashcodes modified version of koush's clockworkmod and installing flashing from there.
how do i openn the .rar file that rsdlite is in?
Do i have to do the beginning steps if my phone is already rooted?
I know u just wanna flash it, but u should def do some reading. Using rsd u can really mess ur phone up! Make sure ur settings/about/system are 5.6.890 and install clockwork first. Then boot into clockwork and u can flash. Only use rsd if ur bricked and its last resort!
Edit: after re-reading, I highly suggest u read the original posts in the rom u want to flash. Make sure its in the droid 3 forum. No offense, but if ur unfamiliar with rar and zip, this may b a little too much

i agree w/ ya......with some roms they suggest using safestrap instead of just koushs modded bootstrap which may/may-not be the same as safestrap and if you use the wrong thing, you may chance bootlooping your phone or worse, so yeah......if he gave specific instructions, your best bet is to follow those for simplicity so that if you have issues you can just confirm using all the steps he listed unless you're an advanced modder and you know what you're doing
and to extract rar files, http://www.rarlab.com is the app you need
thanks for the help guys seriously.
i AM on 5.6.890, and im very familiar with .zip files just not .rar. didnt realize you had to use an outside program to open .rar
isnt clockworkmod the rom manager i downloaded?
i guess im looking for a "How to for dummies" of sorts. i know that i will be able to do this, i just want to do it right. Id hate to brick a phone I just got.
Clockwork is different from rom manager. I think steel droid just released a version u can use with safestrap, but read up on the safestrap and SD threads first! I jacked around with safestrap and bootlooped and rsd'd and bootlooped and now im back. Once u install clockwork mod, create a backup! Then, put the rom on ur sd card and select install zip from sd card. Don't use rsd unless ur really really messed up
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
Okay so I download clockwork and safestrap(install to phone or computer? Links?) And after I do that create a backup, install the new ROM on my sd and open clockwork. And select install from sd...?
Droooooiiid.. the sound forever in our hearts and nightmares <3
Alright, call me mean, but if u can't figure out these next instructions, I can't help u. What's going to happen is ull screw up and then fret because u don't know how to rsd. Its very easy to bootloop!
search the forum for hashcodes tweaked bootstrapper (which is clockwork). I would stay away from the safestrap if I were u. U download this to ur phone, and install it like an .exe. once installed, hit bootstrap recovery, then when u hit reboot recovery, it will reboot into clockwork. Once in clockwork select backup and it will make a nandroid (exact copy). After that u can choose to install the roms zip from sd card. Once its finished, I highly suggest u use the wipe data/cache in clockwork. That will reset all ur data and become a new-out-of-box phone. If u bootloop, then u use rsd.
Be aware that u can brick ur phone. I've saw a few with low batteries get stuck! We all try to help here, but I think the best for u is to read instead of doing. We will try to help if u bootloop, but sometimes there is no fixing.

yeah, safestrap isn't compatable w/ all roms at the moment, and like mrjudy said, low battery can affect rom flashing...suggested is >75% battery life
To add to MrJudylicious post...
I came from a blackberry too, before I got my first Android 2 years ago.
Here's what you should do. First, Familiarize yourself with the Android ecosystem. Flashing ROMs on a brand new phone is tempting, but at the same time, you have no mental reference of how Android was before you flashed that ROM, so it's hard for you to compare and see what's best for you, and what's not. What new feature you was added, what has been improved over your last ROM, etc...
I used Android for 6 months before rooting for the first time, just to give myself some time to learn what's nice about it, and also what I would like for it to achieve, that it can't do without root.
I flashed my first ROM 1 year after that, and this was a great time. Why ? Because I saw how cool things became, I was able to compare the ROM with my "stock android" experience.
I read all your posts in this thread, and you make me feel like you might not be ready to jump in feet first in this. All the ROMS for the Droid3 are in very early stage of development and, if I would be you, would wait for them to become more stable and reliable. I'm not saying that they should not be used at all, just saying that it might not be the best idea for you yo do this RIGHT NOW.
Please do yourself a favor, and keep your phone as it is right now. Root is OK, but be careful.

perfection if i've ever seen it i was in a similar situation, i had a rooted phone and there were next to no roms for the first android phone i got, so when i got my incredible 2 the first thing i did was root it since it was essentially the same exact FW and layout, and i've been mod-happy ever since lol
thanks guys, you've been a massive help forreal. Maybe an idea for you guys to make the learning process better for n00bs such as myself, is to make a thread and discuss some of the terms, acronyms, file names exes apks bak and such. And sticky that thread so when you do your best to try and help someone they can better understand you guys.
Just an idea though. I think ill just wait to flash ROMs and whatnot.

OK. I started out this adventure to root my phone because I want to use it as a wifi hotspot for my Ipad and not pay AT&T $50/month for that "privelage." I can't figure it out!!!
Phone Info. - Samsung Captivate with Froyo kb2 build. It has the 2.1 adroid when I got it then I updated to 2.2 through the Keis program when it was available.
Before anyone starts with "read and search" lecture, I'll tell you that I've been on this site for a combined 9 hours reading and searching and nothing seems to work. I've tried one-click root programs, I've installed a rooted version of my stock ROM, Ive downloaded more apps, files, or software programs than I can remember. I know how to get the phone into download mode and I know how to boot into recovery mode, but nothing works. Everything seems to come back to the 3e Recovery I have because when I think I am almost there, I get a failed signature error.
I tried the 3e Recovery Mod and that didn't seem to do anything. Is anyone out there willing to help me through this? I am not a programmer, and I don't have any android experience whatsoever, but I can follow direction and am willing to learn. Everytime I find a new thread I seem to get more confused because I'm unclear on the jargon being used, or the thread is on a different ROM or phone so I don't know if it will work. I know "brick" is a bad thing so I don't want to do that.
I any of the experts had my phone what would you do? Do you need more information from me? Also, once I get this figured out, I'de love some recomendation on a better, faster ROM to install.
ANY HELP WOLD BE GREATLY APPRICIATED. Sorry for the frustration.
When I was on the Official Froyo 2.2 the first thing I used to successfully get root was this... View attachment SuperOneClickv1.6.5-ShortFuse.zip
This version was the only one at the time that would work. Extract it and run the SuperOneClick application. Be sure to have the usb debugging on.-- Menu /Settings /Applications /Development /then check the USB debugging.
Hmmmm.....very odd. Froyo is super easy.
Do you have Super User showing up in the apps drawer?
AND DON'T USE KIES ANY MORE FOR UPDATING !! YOU CAN BE IN FOR NASTY SURPRISES.
Been there. I'll try it again, but I think it still can't get around the 3e verification stuff. I'll let you know.
No SuperUser as of yet. I guess that is the point. Once I get rooted, I should get SuperUser status.

After u try the SuperOneClick from my previous post, reboot ur phone and then see what u have.
After nearly 9 hours of trying...I have cracked this thing. Turn out there were two threads about the 3e recovery mod. I tried the manual thread with no success. I just found this one that has a one click script to do it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423
Once I did that, I used Captivate One Click Root and presto....I now have SuperUser permissions. Sweet.
Thanks to everyone that responded to my questions. I'm sure I'll have more about ROMs and such.
^ Good deal. Glad u got it.
I figured I would be back.
Anyone have a link to a clear explaination on how to CID unlock the Captivate? A video would be fantastic, but I know how that goes. Also, is there a way to tell if it is unlocked or not?
Thanks

I tried that early on because it looked so easy. All I get is "Sorry, no codes found unknown error" Is there a way to tell if I'm CID unlocked or not? I haven't done that yet that I know of. I did click the unlock button is Super One Click, but it did nothing. By that I mean the program, nor the phone seemed like anything happened. Early on in this process I found the completly rooted version of my stock Froyo 2.2 and installed that on my phone thinking that it would root the phone. Later realized it doesn't work like that. How do I check the CID lock? I'de like to try one of these cool ROM's I keep reading about.
unless you are planning on running the captivate on another carrier, you dont need to unlock it.
I was under the impression that I needed to CID unlock the phone to flash any ROM not produced or signed by the carrier. I thought SIM unlock was what allowed you to take the phone to another carrier?
As you can see, I know enough to be dangerous, but I'm slowly learning.

CID unlocks do not apply to Samsung phones.
once you have a kernel that has CWM built into it, you can start flashing. nothing else required. you dont even need root if you arent planning on using something like titanium backup before you flash.
Cool.
So any recomendations on my first custom ROM install?
I tried installing a custum boot animation last night and had no luck. I used CWM to flash the file I downloaded, but no change. I tried to copy a new customanimation.zip (I think that's what it's called I'm going from memory here) but I don't have RW access to the System folder. I tried using CWM to mount system and then fix permissions through recovery mode, but that doesn't do it. I'm using Droid Explorer to copy the file but it won't copy. There is a customamination.zip file in system/media so I tried to rename it .zp and it won't take. I assume that is a permissions thing.
I guess I'll try Root Exploer from the market. People seem to be having luck with that.
you cant use a bootanimation.zip on a stock kernel. It just be enabled in a custom kernel.
Go read some more bro. A LOT MORE.
OK. so it looks like I downloaded a custom animation zip file, but I need to flash a kernel that allows me to use the anmation. I ran across a post about that so I can find it.
Was was confusing to me was the uploader of the animation called it "flashable" so I thought that was the kernel and all, but I'm now guessing that by flashing it it simply installed it into the system/media folder for me???
Still looking for any suggestions for my first ROM.
Right firstly appologise to the admin for posting earlier in the wrong thread, but gratitude for you patience and direction to getting me to the point where I currently am. which is.... Ive followed the tuts from getting my phone from the exclamationion/pc symbol, re-installed the correct firmware and followed the rooting tut. I am on 2.3.6 android version S5830NEKT2 baseband [email protected]#1 kernel version gingerbread build no:. my question is (and believe me I have searched all evening through the forums to try to gain the knowledge myself and leave the busy guys doing what they do best behind the scenes) I cant seem to unlock all the ****e apps that come pre-installed with the phone... all i want to do is free up phone memory, and maybe install a stable sci-fi fancy looking rom/SHELL. however when i try to uninstall/view or any thing via CWM/AppMaster/installmanager/ESfileexplorer I keep getting the same message about my phone "MUST BE ROOTED" first. I did get the message at the end of rooting via the tuts and was told to thank the guy... which I did (and still do) can anyone tell me where I went wrong? I am at present thinking that maybe installing a custom ROM (currently looking at cryogen latest) would resolve my hassles am I correct?
I am extremely gratefull for you chaps on XDA for getting me this far and hope I dont come across any other way. I would be content with at least having my phone working thanks to you guys but, just cant shake the feeling I am a midges **** off from sorting the root problem can anyone help me....
ps... had a few beers so am off to bed to sleep on it for now... I have a shed load of kids and a moaning wife with a list of jobs todo over the weekend,so I will get back to this during nxt week sometime. Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated...

what do you mean there is no any files?
