Hey guys, I'm kind of new here, and I'm wondering if I root my G1, will I be able to access the paid apps in the android store? I read that it was blocked from the dev phones and I'm wondering if that is the same for root. I have searched the forums but I can't seem to find the answer to me question. Thanks in advance for any help.

here is a guide on how to root. if you need a video on how to root then i will gladly send you a link
and not being able to see paid apps only exist in some rom, but ppl dont use those roms anymore.
the newer roms work just fine
for hero i recommend cyanogen for cupcake builds
for hero roms i suggest JACs 1.6r2a in my opinion. i havent taken the step to upgrade to JACs 1.7 or the other hero rom thats getting a lot of buzz. i will however whenever i decide to.
i runing busy now so if you have any questions just reply.
that problem has not existed in months

Hi. I am a dev who is fairly new to the Android platform. I recently acquired a droid eris running 2.1 leak v3. I am interested in upgrading to root. I was wondering if anyone had achieved root in any of the leaks? If not, is anyone working on it? If so I may be able to help.
Thanks in advance and I apologize if any of these questions had already been answered. I have searched all over this forum and other forums and could not find a recent answer to these questions.
Also, I hear the OTA is right around the corner and might be the exact same as the third leak. Should I just wait until that comes out to attempt to achieve root? I do not want to spend hours of my time working on this only to have the OTA come out the next day and have done this for nothing.

There are versions of 2.1 rooted, but there is no current way to go from the leaks TO root. There are rooted roms based on 2.1 though.

Not to be mean, i hate when people put topic titles as something like 2.1 leaked to 2.1 root, that makes u get excited and then u go read and its not really that. Just saying name ur threads better

Hey guys, I just searched through and found:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=614850
*Still a new noob on the forums so I wasn't able to link the complete thread.
That thread for updating rooted phones. Is there a different method for EVO's or does this post apply for EVO's as well?
Just rooted my phone this past weekend (with Unrevoked3) and I'm quite new to the root ways. Currently not running any special ROM's just using launcherPRO instead of Sense UI.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
If you get it upload it here we can do nothing for rooted phones till soneone who got the update actually takes the time to upload it

Hi,
i just picked up a new DX and i want to root it. Ive been reviewing a bunch of threads to get info on how to do it, there are plenty available but im not quite sure since info seem to vary from thread to thread.
I found a thread that may work using One Click Root but i dont see the DX as a supported device.
I found another thread that says their method will work on 2.2.19.A955 AND 2.2.20.A955 but when i look at my device i show System Vers:2.3.15 mb810
Android version 2.2
Im familar with the rooting process, I have an Eris that i rooted and installed many different roms so im not a complete noob.
Saying that, I used up a bunch of points with my wife to get this phone so i want to make sure i dont screw it up.
Can anyone provide any insight on if the above will work or if not do you have a link that you found helpful?
Bah... cant link to the threads mentioned above
This is the method I've used many times. If your comfortable with adb.http://destdroid.com/showthread.php?11-Droid-X-2.2-Root-Manual-Method

Rooting any droid2 is the same no matter if they have the newest update or not.
Here is a link to the post for rooting. Also try and use a forum search or Google search with "XDA developers:" before what you want to know. This will help us keep double post's to a minimum.
Are there any custom roms that are 2.3?

The newest two builds of Fission and Fused should be 2.3.20 but I'm not sure of any others. I think there is a 2.3.20 version of the squidly ROMs but I think that's it. I'm not familiar with ROMs on the other forums.

You can't root your phone right now. I quick look over the General or Q&A and you'll see numerous discussions about it.

OH NO, NOT YOU TOO!! THIS HAS BEEN BROUGHT UP MANY, MANY, MANY TIMES ALREADY.
Anyways, Welcome to the site, but sorry, they haven't found a way to root 2.2.3 Gingerbread yet.
Also, please read the posts here. There is a lot of good information and useful tips. What you may have heard and read from other sources are often wrong and misleading.
