Not reall sure what the best thing to do now is. I do have a few questions, how to I get the hotspot to work after I root. Im not paying and extra $30 a month for that BS. Is there anything I need after I root it any custom roms well rated?
I come from the windows mobile background so some of this is a bit new.
For Tethering use Mobileap It is exactly like Sprint hotspot app but its free. U must have stock rom to use this and touchwiz stuff installed. Get a custom kernal there are a few of them around the development section. B4 u do this flash clockwork recoverymod so its easy to flash things. Another thing u need is adfree if you dont have it already.
Those are my recommendations.

FYI. Some folks can't get MobileAP to work with the stock kernel. I use Mixup kernel. Works perfectly.

I really would like the ability to completely backup my Evo, wipe batt stats, clear caches, wifi tether, and some other things but I DONT WANT A CUSTOM ROM.
i am perfectly happy with stock sprint rom.
everywere i read about rooting the way the tutorials are worded they make it sound like you have to use a custom rom...
id like to use unrEVOked.
could someone help me out, thanks...
I used unrEVOked Forever and rooted my phone. It was easy and quick. It rooted it and kept the stock rom. I used it for like 2 weeks then decided I would try Warm. If you use unrEVOked, it should keep the stock rom and be rooted. After that, it's your choice to swap roms. I like Warm because it has the stock Sprint hotspot enabled.

You can do all of that and still use a stock ROM.
You don't have to use a custom rom unrevoked installs a stock rooted and you can still update it ota but you loose root if you do custom roms sometimes add some tweaks and functionality that you don't get from stock so they are worth looking at.

Use unrevoked forever after unrevoked 3 so you have nand unlocked to do the full backups the other reason is you can get root back slot easier after update

No. Unrevoked3 unlocks nand. I only used that and I've flashed several custom ROMs.

Your right it does but if you read on just about any forum here it's not a full unlock but by using unrevoked forever you get s-off or security-off which when you're talking about stock rooted lets you upgrade and root without waiting for someone else to produce a stock rooted update rom.

Yea I know it doesn't work for the Wireless Tether version on the Epic so I was wondering if there was another app that might grant me this ability. Thanks!
Check out mobile ap, link is in my signature, it does infrastructure, its identical to sprints hotspot and works on 4g..
You have to have stock rom, possibly a custom kernal, root, clockwork mod and if you want to have themes on stock follow my tutorial, if you dont want plain old epic...
Mobile ap is the best

Stock Froyo? Does that mean I need to re root and reinstall clockwork mod? All I am trying to do is use my phone as a wireless hotspot for my kindle. Its not a big deal but I wanted to try. The problem is that Kindle only supports infrastructure mode

Is there a mobile ap for dk28?
Yes
If there is I can't find it.
Viper supposedly had it in his froyo rom working, but I can't confirm, never tried that rom.

I hav the epic 4g and the hero before this on the day it came out and all this mytouch talk is confusing....
I wanna help my friend use android tether so we can play over xbox live. Don't care about lag h just wants to get on for the party since he's only gonna be playing halo wars for the time being....
So if any of you can help id appreciate it ^_^
His mytouch has no 3.5mm jack so idk if that would mean anything...he also has cm running on it (an extremely old version) so I wanna put him back to stock first so that I can put a nice clean flash on whatever rom has usb tethering enabled, so if anyone knows how to do that that'd be great too!

There are tethering apps on the market. Have you tried any of them. You can use the superwipe to wipe the phone and get a clean install so you dont have to go back to stock.
The tethering apps on the market are trials
And superwipe? WIll that just wipe the current rom or take any and all modifications off? Id prefer the latter so that I will be able to tell exactly what's wrong if anything goes wrong because thered be no unknown variables for me

Here is a guide to unroot get to 2.2 ota stock and root again so you will have the new radio spl if you want it.
1.) Follow the directions here to downgrade to 1.6 donut and upgrade to stock Android 2.2 and Use the Root method there ~ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=807899
Or you can go to ezterry's 14mb hack page if you have fastboot enabled on your pc and grab those if you want. Here is the link to that. You have to have fastboot enabled and again follw the instructions to the T. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139
The superwipe will wipe everything just like fastboot erase system -w but supposed to be better i will find you links.
Here is a link to superwipe. Just follow the instructions there to a T. You have to power down in recovery and boot directly back to recovery for it to work. Also make a backup FIRST. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=834812&highlight=superwipe
Are you wanting to use one of the newer roms or older? That might make a difference in deciding to upgrade to the new radio/spl or not. Im not sure if any of the newer roms have tethering in it or not. Thats why i ask. I know the older ones do. Like Enomther's 1.6 for example
Well any working rom will do. You've been a great help!!!!!!!!!!
also, by older roms do you mean pre-official froyo? Or just like a rom that was last updated in november? Because if you mean pre-froyo I'll downgrade to 1.6 and then just go on from there to see if it'll work and then once I see its possible I'll put him on oficial froyo and tell him he's gonna have to wait or be stuck with the first os he had (he hated 1.6 LOL!)

If he hated 1.6 have you thought about 2.1? What is he on now? I believe there are 2.1 roms out there with tethering in it already. I believe you can rip the tethering out of a rom and just install it on your phone with whatever you have flashed at the time as well.
And yes i mean pre-froyo. Donut or eclair
Also have you tried barnacle wifi tether. I hear it works. I dont personally use tethering
Im looking for info SPECIFIC to rooting AFTER the froyo "upgrade". Im having trouble tethering now.
Linking to another thread is fine, as long as its post-"upgrade" specific.

Do you want to run a custom EC05 ROM?
I have read that people have used the OneClickRoot with EC05 and it worked fine.
If you want to run a custom rom; I would use Odin to put the EB13 Extended on your phone (it has CWM and Root and EXT4 set to go).
Then apply one of the awesome EC05 ROMS; you can run wiFi tether using them.
I also wanted to upgrade but was worried about having the ability to upgrade custom roms. When you do the update to 2.2... you hae to reroot, I'm runnin ec05 and havet had a singal problem yet. Flashed syndicate frozen and love it.
Wired tether doesn't work but that's lame anyways. Just plug usb cable in, and hit charging.
Wifi tether works great. EVEN with 4g!!
The guys that put this rom together are awesome.
Definatly worth trying. Recap....
Download, if you haven't already, the drivers for samsung onto your 'pooter and install.
Download cwm3 and install. So easy to do. Just read the frum in development section.
Download rom...
Make people jelous

hi guys i install 2.3.4 from samfirmware and when i check i have no CMW and Superuser app installed in it.......can anyone tell whats that mean coz i m really stucked that how i make the titanium backup without supperuser......coz it is not allowing me to use titanium backup and some other apps.
The firmware from samfirmware is official, so it does not come with superuser or CWM. Check the dev section and flash a kernel with CWM, and superuser. I suggest CF-root.
or hardcore.. speedmod is the best on my jvp for now
can u plz tell me what is dev section and how i get rom from their plzzzzzz
I'm wondering, you had a phone with root, superuser and cmw before upgrading to 2.3.4? How did you get your phone to that point before this upgrade? Because the process would be the same really.

DEV Section
sorry for that i cant get ur word that time.....thanks for this and plz tell me which one is best rom.
My advice.Do not flash rom before one week of reading posts in xda forum.
What about Sammy application, which are missed in 2.3.4,?
I was affected to Konami Crazy Cart game
I miss the allshare application!!!!!!!!!!

I still have Allshare in 2.3.4, downloaded from SammyFirmware
in 2.3.4 some apps just like Superuser and CMW is not built in it........but this firmware is bit fast then 2.3.3 u can manually install superuser
superuser and cmw are not built into any android version. You can dowload superuser from the market but I believe your phone needs to be rooted to use it.
In effect these are after market add ons that will give you more functionality. But they are nothing to do with google.
Ali, if you don't mind me asking did you purchase your phone second hand? Or have someone else do some stuff to your phone for you? I'm only asking because I would normally assume that a person that has rooted, and applied cmw to their phone would know that they've done it after market.
Anyway, hope everything goes well for you so far. But have a good read around the various forums in the i9000 galaxy section. There's lots to learn.
well my phone is rooted buddy last i m using jvk rom 2.3.3 and i have superuser and cmw in it and the darky and other all contain these apps but this one not have these apps.......so why it is
Go back to the first page of this thread again, and read carefully what everyone has said... again!
All the answers are there for you!

Darky's ROM comes pre-rooted, as do most of the roms in the DEV section. The rom you installed (JVP 2.3.4) is a STOCK rom from SAMSUNG. Stock roms do not have CWM, Superuser and are NOT rooted.
You need to read this whole thread again. All your answers are in it. Simply, custom rom may contain cmw, root and su. Non custom won't. You have non custom.
