Finished rooting, now i need some help!

Hello
So I have successfully rooted my phone! And it was so easy.
Thank you every one that have posted guides and made it so easy.
And thank you Cyanogen for your perfect Room!!
But I have some questions:
1. Can anyone list the best rooted apps, and dose it exist an list of all rooted apps?
2. is there any way to remove programs from the program menu(start menu)?
and where is the list of the programs on the program menu listed?
3. Is there any way to implement proxy settings in wifi settings?
In advance
Thanks for all help!!

I am also new to this rooting thing. Can you provide the link for what instructions did you follow to root your Nexus 1?
I came from an HD2 device, and this is pretty new to me.
i'll appreciate any help.
thanks

hey man, thanks for your response.........
i did my research of course and had a little idea now on how to do the rooting, but just wanted to see if there are different instructions on rooting a device.
since the OP said he have just rooted it, might as well ask him to point me to the right direction.
i believed, i have also said that i will appreciate that info.
coming from a totally different device, i hope you understand why am i asking? since a thread has been opened already.

look around the development thread, and use google. from those, i was able to unlock, root, and install enom's ROM w/o too much trouble. using the 'spare parts' app in enom's ROM, you can uninstall things you couldn't before, like amazon.mp3, for which i have no use.
i don't know about proxy wifi settings, never had to mess with it. that seems like a browser condition, not a ROM condition tho. could fix thru router tho, if you're at home. MAC address proxy assignment would be your best bet, i would think.
only rooted apps i use are adfree, andexplorer, and metamorph, i think.
but, i am able to push whatever i want

[ROOT] unrEVOked 3.21: one-click root for Froyo, no downgrading

Hey all,
We've been working pretty hard to bring you unrEVOked 3.2 with out-of-the-box, one-click support for all Android versions on the Incredible.
Available for Linux, Mac, and Windows:
http://www.unrevoked.com/recovery/
Please start by visiting the help page and reading it through:
http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/unrevoked3
1. Windows users MUST install the HBOOT drivers for this to work:
http://www.unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php?id=public:windows_hboot_driver_install
2. Windows users need to uninstall HTC Sync or any other program that might talk to the phone over USB (doubletwist, etc). Disabling HTC Sync from the system tray is not enough. They interfere with the root process and will cause problems.
3. When asked for USB connection type, select "Charge Only" and "Remember this".
Special thanks to Sebastian Krahmer for the rageagainstthecage exploit.

It's working flawlessly on our testing devices, but we are releasing it for a quick round of testing before distributing it more widely. If you are interested in helping us test, please join me in #unrevokedtest on freenode.net.
I'll replace the content here with the links to the updated tool once we've finished testing.

Nice work as usual. I have a bunch of people who upgraded and now want root. Look forward to the finished release.

Can't wait to root my HTC Desire from US Cell... I hope the testing goes quickly!

it worked for me.
specs were
stock 2.2 with ota. no mods previously done.
now I have root with S-off

I would like to test since I took the OTA and lost root, but I am unfamiliar with freenode and can't figure out what I need to do.
Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Google
I am a google.com kinda person. Just type in your search and let it find the answers.

Well your loss then! Besides it was just sarcasm, don't take it so harshly.
Can't wait for this to get released so I can help my cousin root his phone.

There's nothing "loaded" with these, they just make modifications to your phone. If you're already rooted/S-OFF there's no reason to run them again.

this is great news. i'm excited for when this is released. but, this will just root it right? it wont turn s-off?
keep up the good work

Updated post - it's live now.

S-OFF is optional.

Hey
So when is the tool supposed to be back up?

I imagine it will be back up as soon as they work out the small bug(s) they found. I can't wait for it either, I'm ready for some for 2.2 lovin.

[Q] Cyanogen Mod 7.1

Hi this is my first post. Im really sorry if Im posting this again and if I am just tell me to delete it and point me to the correct one.
So i want to install the Cyanogen mod 7.1 that was released yesterday onto my HTC incredible s. however since i have only just had it around a month i know very little about android rooting and how to do it.
My question is what guide should i use? is this the cyanogen mod good. i cna tpost it here it wouldnt let me.
if so i know doing so will void my warrenty and so is it like jailbreaking where all you have to do is restore to stock firmware?
Update: installed using this http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Incredible_S:_Full_Update_Guide
worked like a charm
thank you very much.

welcome to the forum. just remember, this forum is chock full of great info. when you have a question, more often then not your question has already been asked. always use the search button first to reduce clutter
this phone is one of the easiest phones to root. just head here. voila. that's it.
yes, cm7 is THAT good. definitely worth it. fast and prob the best battery life out of all the roms.
you can always get the phone back to it's original state for warranty purposes. always a good idea to do a backup immediately after you root.
have fun.

ok thank you very much. Does the guide on the CyanogenMod website include how to restore to stock if you have to send your phone in?

i don't think so. that info is, however, readily available in this forum. just do a search
come to think of it, i think all you have to do is revert to the stock rom that you just backed up after rooting. someone please correct me if i'm wrong.

Does anyone also know if the root method for the HTC incredible S is temp? Does that mean you cant turn off your device? I'm confused.

no, it's not temporary. it will stay rooted until you unroot and return the device to stock/original state. why don't you try it out? it will be a good way to familiarize yourself with rooting, backing up, and restoring.

Hearing of the release of CM7 got me finally around of rooting my phone. This forum offers great tutorials and I managed to root is fairly easily. After rooting I was also asked wheter I wanted to flash CWM and I answered yes. Everything went OK and I was able to try CM7 after 30 minutes or so. The most time consuming operation was creating backup with CWM recovery.
But my opinion about CM7 isn't good. While I like the the effects and other neat customisation possibilities 3 thing turn me off.
First, I really love HTC's phone or dialler application which helps me find contacts by entering their number or trying to type their names. This is the single most useful thing invented on a telephone. As CM7 doesn't support that (only enterning numbers as far as I know) I will not use it.
Second, I wasn't able to connect to Exchange server for some reason
Third, Android Market shut itself down after 10 seconds and repeatedly kept doing that.

PS. I would have liked to post this info to developers forums, but as I don't have rights, I couldn't.

The markets fixed by going in to language settings and selecting English again.
Exchange worked fine for me...
Download another dialer application..
I'd choose double the speed, battery life and ram any day over sense

lets not start cm7 vs sense. this thread will never end really, it comes down to individual preference and that's not something we can argue.
cm7 isn't prefect but it's close, imo.

Please recommend a dialer app and I will give it a try Dialer One maybe?
Thanks for the market tip.

sounds good. and there are guides in the dev forum if you need some assurance.

Cannot download anything from the Market for unknown reason. The download bar just scrolls endlessly.
E: Restart helped. Everything seems to be working just fine. Will give an estimate of battery usage in a few days time. And will test out Skype as well.

I feel as though the guides here need to be updated current one is from June. Not complaining just sayin is all.

Restore to stock ROM

Hi everyone,
First of all I'd like to say I'm new to the wonderful world Android so please forgive me if my question is a simple one.
I'd like to know how i could revert my Samsung Galaxy Ace (GT-S5830i) back to the stock ROM.
I would like to do this as i recently rooted and installed a custom ROM, thinking that this would enhance my phone. It did not turn out this way and now I'm left with a buggy and less functional phone.
I know that it is custom to search the net before posting and i have done this. I believe that I am supposed to use a program called 'Odin' and i need a ROM for my phone. I have searched and searched all day for the relevant ROM but have had no luck.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, if anyone could offer me any help i would be so grateful.
Thanks, Curtis.
P.S. (almost forgot)
The details of my phone are below:
Make: Samsung
Model: GT-S5830i
PDA(Don't know what this means): S5830iXXLA2
PHONE: S5830iXXLD2

[quote="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1552792]
If you have "bricked" your s5830i a.k.a stuck at samsung logo just download Odin and flash PDA.tar form the link.
http://www.4shared.com/file/Ls2CAsHv/PDA.html
Everything you're doing is up to you!I'm not responsible if you don't read!There's a binary counter on s5830i so be careful with flashing!

Wow, thanks for the quick reply!
The second link you provided has helped me boat loads, thanks.
I've downloaded the checkFUS downloader and managed to get the correct ROM. I then installed cygwin (with the zip component) and attempted to run the command but its throwing me the error "File In Use" but i ran the prgram "Unlocker" which checks if a file is in use and it reported that the file wasn't in use. Very confused.
Thanks again for that reply!.

[Q] Lost root after flashing Android 4.3

Hi guys, I know you have tons of rules here and I tried my best to respect all of then by searching for a thread containing info on what in looking for but I couldn't find one. I rooted my phone a couple of years back and have been flashing various ROMs since. About a week ago however I flashed an unofficial android 4.3 ROM by CyanogenMod and after that once I discovered how buggy it was (as per the developer's warning) I decided to flash something else. However I couldn't access my recovery menu no matter what I tried and it looks like I've list root but I can't be sure of that. Ask the root apps aren't working and I got a toast from one of them saying you need root access to use this. Right now what I want is a way to either reroot or maybe there's a simpler way of solving this problem. If I could access the recover mode menu I could use the conventional way of rooting but right now I can't even di that. I'd really appreciate a solution if any of you could take the time out to give me one. Thanks so much and I really hope to hear from you.

I assume you flashed Chas' rom. If you could just read the op.... Chas gave everyone a soultion on a silver plate..

er.sorry

To be really honest I'm not sure whether it was his ROM or not since I got it from a YouTube instructional video. There was a direct download link. Do you think you could please do me a favor and point me in the right direction to the solution? Losing my mind here since it's so buggy

Go to Chas' Asylum thread in Android development, and use the search option. He gave the solution on 8th of August.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app

At me it worked.
And saw it posted in a 4.3 thread/post
You have to disable and re enable it in developers option in settings.
And then try root privilege using apps to check if it worked like type su in terminal
