I was wondering what the steps are to remove this after you've done it. There seems to be alot of information on how to do the process but its hard to find info on undoing it. Any help would be greatly appreciated and I would believe this falls under the right subsection of the forum so I hope this doesn't get locked for some reason. Thanks for the help guys.
What method did you use?
I used the method posted by MarcucMaximous04.

I have searched quite a bit of threads and I have not found the proper way to unlock nand on the Galaxy S (Vibrant). Can someone *please* give full instructions on how to do this?
The phone is rooted using Vibrant 1 Click Root.
Thank you in advance.

post back if you still need help or have questions
Thank you for the quick reply!
I tried your method however it isn't working. This is a T-mobile Vibrant. (USA version)
All I need to do is be able to install Busybox right after rooting so I can apply the lag fix.
Is there an easier method to apply the lag fix or I'll need to install busybox?
the one click lag fix v2.0 is by far the easiest method

if that is what you are trying to do after the root.
I've googled it and can't find a definitive guide on what I need and how to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Just run the RUU.
Actually, there is a thread on the dev precisely about this. Check it out.
hi,
I want to root my Desire Z as I would like to use Titanium Back Up Pro. I have checked thru the threads here. And, well, I am totally confused.
On TheRomMistress's great sticky there are 27 guides with at least 11 dealing with rooting the phone. Some of these guides refer you to other guides and these refer you to yet more guides for various reasons (updates etc).
I know a lot of the guides were initially worked out before the whole NAND lock was cleared up.
So my question is which guide should a noob follow to get root?
I love the whole android experience, love Sense and think my phone is all shiny, sparkly etc. I may want at a later stage to try out some of the other ROMs but so far I really love stock (heck, my previous phone was a windows 2003 Magician with BigStorage courtesy of XDA!!). I just want to be able to back it up.
Thanks for your help guys.
personally i used this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=843014
worked well once i had reset my phone and made sure my sd card was clean. Read up on adb before you attempt though so you know what is happening at each stage, it makes the whole process easier. And if things don't work as expected you'll be able to sort it.
The method listed in the official Wiki is the one recommended by most people nowadays: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#OTA_Updates.
It is generally considered the "safe" way to attempt root at this point. There were reports of semi-bricks caused by the permroot function in Visionary so general consensus is not to use it. For other guides (such as the one linked to earlier), if you have a typo while flashing the engineering HBOOT, you could cause a semi-brick as well (though if you follow the instructions carefully, it shouldn't be a problem).
A typo with the Wiki method shouldn't lead to a semi-brick though. It also has the added benefits of not only giving you root, but also true radio S-OFF, SuperCID, and subsidy unlock (if your phone was originally locked to a specific carrier).
That being said, as long as you read carefully and follow instructions, you should be fine following most any of the guides.
thanks guys for the answers and sorry for my delay in replying. The wife came home with a new netbook that she "needs". I do get the joy of setting up something I'll never get to use. Yay!! hmmmm
I'll read thru all this and hope to try this out over the weekend.
Again thanks guys.
Just use gfree method, its painless

Sorry for responding so late, just wanted to say thanks again. Took me ages to get around to doing this. Work just went crazy busy Again thanks for your help guys.
Hey guys. Sorry to be so helpless, but I currently need help changing up my phone. I have the Motorola Atrix (obviously) and it's currently running Gingerblur. It's rooted as well.
What I want to do is update my phone to a newer rom/kernel/ whatever. I would normally read the multiple guides available, but unfortunately, that isn't really an option for me right now. I recently was diagnosed with a concussion and it has greatly affected my language abilities. So, I'd really appreciate if someone could help me through the process.
Really, a recommendation for a ROM, how I would go about changing from Gingerblur to the new rom, and everything else would be so appreciated. Thanks for the help guys.
(PS. How's the iPhone-look-alike rom? Seems pretty neat. Thought I might to play around with that one. Thanks again guys.)

How would us giving you words that you couldn't understand from other posts help you?
Get iBlur if you love it. Unlock your bootloader. Install a custom recovery. Wipe. Install. Boot.
I'm sorry. I should have been more specific. It's understanding a lot of material and retaining it that is the problem mostly. And getting words out is hard as well. So, digging through everything to see what I need to do would be impossible, while shorter, tailored to me instructions are manageable.
Thank you for your response.

You need to unlock boot loader, flash custom recovery and then flash roms.
Its best to search and learn for yourself to be honest. If you are fed the information on a plate, you will learn nothing whatsoever.
There are plenty of guides and help resources on Google.
This isn't me trying to be ignorant, it really is the best way as when or if you mess up, you will then need 1 to 1 help which ends up consuming massive amounts of peoples time.
