Look into a program called vmware workstation and you can actually use that to install linux within windows
Try virtualbox is free and is about good as vmware

Its not hard at all . Just download it and put the folder in the root of your harddrive .
I'm just having problems with the Samsung drivers and wondering if I have to flash back to stock before I can install drivers.

Yeah, just download it... It's less than 30MB. Make your instal path as short as possible. Try adb devices to test if you have it set up right and it sees your phone.
Hey everyone I'm new to xda and I just want to say how great it is to be a part of this site. My question is. Is there a new version of z4 root that works with the froyo update dk28 for the epic? Thanks again.

Won't work; I've tried a while back.
It'll just freeze at the "Acquiring Root" part.
So no, you cannot use z4root to root, unfortunately. However, there are various topics on how to do one-click roots on your phone, with all types of computers - Windows, Linux, or even Mac.

Yes, when using the one click roots, you get a lot of options.
One being rooting the phone w/ cwm redirector.
And another that gives you the option to unroot the phone.
So basically, use the same method to unroot it as you do to root it, although choosing the correct option.
Simple as that

Since you are on dk28b it seems that you can get odin to work on yur mac. I would suggest just flashing the stock dk28 ext that is pre rooted through odin, its in the dev section

There are no videos that I know of and your question is very vague. First of all, have you put your phone in USB debugging mode? If so, then try other USB ports and if that doesn't work try a different computer. That is the only help I can give you. If you are using the oneclickrootandrecovery made by Drockstar it is rock solid and very very easy to use.

Wow, just wow. Please don't respond to any more questions. Heimdall is the program for Macs but most people I've talked to cannot get it to work. If you have a newer Mac and want to continue flashing I would recommend getting a copy of Windows and using it to use Odin.

Yes, download the rom to the root of your SD card and flash away.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Absolutely. You download the zip and flash it through recovery. And for many roms, you can have ROMmanager do all the work for you.

Be careful with Rom Manager. It said it needed to update Clockwork Recovery and in the process of rebooting the phone, the recovery image is corrupted and my phone will no longer boot into recovery.
I haven't tried reflashing the recovery image via adb yet, but hope it will work.
You dont have to use rom manager, you can just navigate with the browser and download as if you use a computer. The file would be located in /sdcard/download
The only problem is the data speeds.
Peace

Agreed. Things are far more complex than they were in the early days. It would be a long road. Rooting is the easy part

I disagree. It took an act of Congress to get root and install a new ROM just 8 months ago. ****'s cake now.
Well I went through a little time being nervous too but I read and read and just did it. Never asked 1 question. Still rarely do. I'm just saying if this is how the journey is starting it's gonna be long.

Doesn't matter for achieving root. That doesn't come into play until your flashing recovery/ROM/kernel.

Well it's mainly because most of the root procedures include flashing a new recovery/ROM. The idea of rooting in itself isn't device specific. It's simply adding the su binaries to the ROM.
I don't know what Hboot is and i don't know if i have 32a or 32b. I have like 250 mb of memory I think, I read somewhere that 32b has 192? I dunno.
My baseband is 62.50SJ.20.17u_2.22.28.25
Kernel 2.6.32.9-g93b855e
build number 3.56.531.1.cl300801 release keys
How do I know if i have the correct USB drivers installed?:
You NEED to put your phone on USB Debugging mode
You NEED to install make sure the Android drivers for your phone are installed
Make sure you DO NOT mount your SD card.
If you still can't get something to run, try doing it in recovery mode.
I know I can mount my sd card when I use usb, but does that mean the usb drivers are installed?
Do u have sdk installed on your PC?
Sent from my Dream/Sapphire using XDA Premium App
I have SDK installed on my pc, but I don't know how to use it.
Well I used that oneclick root and it worked. niiice, although when I go to emulator and type SU nothing happens, but when the program did the root test, it said it was rooted. so I don'tk now
I am not sure on even how to get into any mode after phone is shut off. I want to try installing some roms, but obviously I need radio and spl to install. I don't know how to do that with the MT3G
When u open terminal u get
$
When u type su u should get a new line with
#
Does this happen?
Read the stickies at the top of this general section. U will find all the info u can handle on fastboot,adb,sdk and so on
Sent from my Dream/Sapphire using XDA Premium App
Yes i got SU I had to restart the phone to get it to engage.
