ROOTING - G1 General

when u root ur g1 do u still need 2 keep telnet and terminal emulator on ur g1 or r u able 2 uninstall them without messing up the rooting done 2 the fone???

1. SMS slan isn't needed in a forum.
2. Yes you can deinstall Telnet without loosign anything. But if you want todo something that might require it, you have to reinstall it.
Telnet isn't very big so why doyou want to deinstall it?

Just install the JF RC33 firmware and don't worry about losing root.

U R 2 Serious (lol)

If you are going to get on the poor man for using SMS "slan"(g), at least spell check your response. Deinstall isn't even a word.
You are right about Telnet though, it and the terminal emulator come in handy for further hacks, so unless you are really low on space (which is really likely, and doesn't take long to do) then I would just keep them.

Thank you!

I'm sure you guys here at XDA don't hear it enough so let me just say thanks. I've spent the last hour changing my G1 from RC30 to JF 1.51. it took most of the time figuring out that the terminal program I was using wasn't giving me root, I did some smart using of the "search" function and realized I had to use pterminal.apk. but to say the least I'm up to date with cupcake, and I have root. You might want to update the how-to thread. Now just to get it so I can run apps of my sdcard... search away!
thats good to hear people rooting their phone without having to start like 10 threads on how they did it or what they need to do.
getting it setup is a little harder then I'd hoped, I'm trying to figure out how to set it up so my terminal has root access. I thought I would still have root, however the terminal that comes with JF 1.51 is just giving me the $ sign.
what happens when you press su in the terminal??
its supposed to ask you if you wanna allow it or deny it and it goes on the whitelist program.
Thanks! I missed that step somewhere. I am unfortunately a windows users, so I don't have the know-how with linux, it's an unfortunate blite on my record. I'm trying though! lol

i myself am a windows user also... most of the steps here are for windows, unless otherwise noted.
but yeah when you enter su in the terminal for the first time it should ask you for permission
crap, I was using the appstosd2 program and now my phone is stuck on the g1 screen... a recovery with wipe didn't help either.

did i root it right?

hey guys im new here i got my htc cdma hero a few weeks ago and i saw the thread on how to root it from the link below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583291
now my question is if i rooted the phone corretly should
i have some new file on my programs folder?
and what does rooting actually do?
i know this questions been asnwerd before but i cant find a straight up asnwer about it for the htc cdma hero.
open up terminal emulator and type "su" then hit enter and tell us what happens
even easer way, look on your programs list, is there a program there called superuser permissions? if so your rooted
im having a problem everything that i do seems to be doing good but im not getting any new app on my phone or anything diffrent.
can anyone help me please with remote assist or something i would really appriciate it.
"and what does rooting actually do?"
Thats why new people seeing this forum that have no experience should first read as much as you can before continuing...This type of stuff may break your cellphone, and if you dont even know what does root and what is done for, then just dont do it, its easier and safier!
Dont take me wrong but this is an important warning.

easy way

is there any other easy to root a mytouch 3g 1.2 with 3.5 head jack ??
itnstead of the gold card way any help is welcome plzzz thanx and yeah im a noob at mytouch i had 2 g1s root already tho
Really? You find making a gold card hard? Have you even tried?!? The most difficult thing is the inconvenience of not having an SD card to work as a goldcard which you can easily solve by going out and buying a cheap card people confirm working
I followed instructions given here and it was no problem. Unlockr even elaborated on everything here and made simple detailed explanations on how to make a goldcard.
like i said im a noob but i rooted before 3 g1s i just never messed with that
can u help pls ??
point out sum stuuf ???
i never mess with adb or sdk or gold cards
hit me over gmail it u like plz

The only way to learn, is to play with this stuff and read up on them. You will only brick your phone if you play with the Radio and SPL so go nuts. I'm not going to contact you and spoonfeed you. So many members learned this themselves and instructions on how to do it is EVERYWHERE. Spoonfeeding you this info will likely result in more questions from you (Questions that are already answered everywhere). You'll learn how to search and do it yourself.
Take some time to learn adb. All you have to do is download the androidsdk. I'll give you a start. Download AndroidSDK and you'll have a folder. Run it and download the USB drivers.
Wherever you put the folder, for example my folder name is AndroidSDK and it's in C:\
so I go into command prompt and it shows C:\User\Whatever
I get out of that by doing cd.. (twice, I'm not a pro cmd prompt user so I use cd.. twice to get back to C:\ , i don't know if theres a more simple method)
then I type, cd androidsdk/tools - which will then allow me to use adb, fastboot etc.
Go on unlockr and look at how to make a goldcard, it is simple.
true
thats actauly true man its actauly better thanks alot ill do it and see what happens thanx
i mean seriouslys

stop being an idiot and google.. common...
here.. ill even point you in the right direction..
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Main_Page#Upgrading_from_Vanilla:_Installing_your_first_mod
now make sure to determine if you have a 32b or 32a and follow the directions.. its like paint by color.. easy as pie..
If you get really stuck, I'll try and help you. But if it's a thing like not being able to make a goldcard when instructions are nice and clear... well try harder! Don't use being a noob as an excuse. you should be researching and learning as a noob!
thanks thanks lol ok its seems better but why cyans mod dosent require the gold card
??
yeah ok kool bro ill see what happens ill try these intructions
http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/14/how-to-root-your-mytouch-3g/
no rom requires a goldcard, please look up what the goldcard does as well... lol...
It's used to downgrade your software
ok then how come the unlocker
http://theunlockr.com/2009/08/14/how-to-root-your-mytouch-3g/
asks for those instructions

The unlockrs instructions asks for instructions? That makes no sense. I can barely understand your english. It's telling you to make a goldcard to ROOT, where does it say ANYTHING about CYANOGENMOD? What the f.
If you ask another ridiculous question, I give up lol
And why are you reading that when you could be reading this:

Rooting Fender

Oh no not another N00b question on rooting...
How do i get root on a fender...lol JK JK
Seriously, i want to know if it is possible to pull all the Fender special stuff from the device BEFORE rooting so I can use them on the new rom.
I remember something like adb shell pull or something like that?
Google proved unhelpful.
My mother is *****ing about how slow her phone is, how many problems she has, etc.
She has so many STUPID apps loaded there is only 32MB internal left....So I told her to let me root it and then she can have apps2sd....but she wants ALL the stupid Fender specials.
Thanks guys
You could try tools like Droid Explorer or Android Commander to copy the apps from the phone.

Well... you have a couple of options.
You can use adb shell do do it.
create a folder (we'll use example c:\users\john\desktop\dump)
open command prompt
cd c:\users\john\desktop\dump
adb pull /system dump (it may create another directory within the 'dump' folder... which is fine)
or the easy way, just extract the stock rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5451846&postcount=1
Just note this, many of the files are odexed and cannot be used on other roms.
However other apps such as solo and such should be fine.
The Music app will not work (since it is dependant on the odex counterpart and the specific framework)
For that you can look into this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=679707
Thank you Binary ^_^
Thats aht i needed.
I just need the stuff like Solo and the Boot screen(or is it the splash screen)

Check out the Unlockr.com for the bootscreen because you will not find that in the rom.
Solo.apk is in stock.

First of all you need to root your phone. Take a look in this thread and follow section 1.5. Instead of the recovery file suggested by the instruction, use the one from this thread. (Otherwise you won't be able to flash Gingerbread)
You have now rooted your phone and flashed a custom recovery program. Now you'r ready to choose a rom. I would suggest nFinityGB from arco. Just download the rom you like and put it on your SD card. Reboot your phone into recovery and DO A FULL BACKUP. Do a wipe/factory reset and flash the new rom (flash zip from sd card or something like that). Reboot the phone and have PATIENCE, the first start can take up to 5 to 10 minutes. Enjoy!
If you run in to any trouble, search! I can almost guarantee that your problem is not entirely new or unique, if it is; feel free to ask for help
yh nfinity gb is best man

Did you download the android-sdk to get adb? If yes, you should go with the terminal in the platform-tools folder to launch adb.

The memory is not the SD card space but the internal memory of the phone.
the internal phone space 150 mb
& the sd card space 1.83 Gb
that is what i found on the phone !
Use Universal Androot and ROM Manager much easier without PC
Sent from my HTC click using XDA Premium App
I have only encountered the "no space left" error once and that was when I missed a step in the manual rooting process. I didn't have any problem with the automated rooting tool mentioned in the FAQ and no problems at all when I did the manual rooting following each and every step carefully.
Sorry but I have know idea what causes the problem if you are following the instructions.
Andy, I've been reading about Androot and ROM Manager since you posted.
I have the standard 1.6 version from HTC, using Androot and ROM Manager I can use any of the rom's posted here in xda or do I need something else?
Did you rooted and flashed your tattoo this way?
Thanks
