You would have to root and have CWrecovery. It won't install the packages any other way.
I dont really wanna root cux then i wont have insurance, plus the possibility of bricking

It's virtually impossible to brick the phone. The only real way to brick it is if you flash something from ODIN with the Phone button instead of PDA. Rooting it shouldn't affect your insurance at all either, because as long as the phone boots, you can restore it completely to stock with ODIN.
Is odin the computer software? Cuz i cant get the software to download to my laptop

Ok, I've rooted my phone before but had to reset the phone to all stock because I downloaded an impaled version of angry birds to get the ads off and make the game run smoother....never doin that again lol. Anyway, I tried using the one click root like I did the 1st time but its not findin my phone. I think it says something like it does not recognize adf internally or externally. I downloaded the right samsung driver, put the debugging on, and used the usb cord that came wit the phone and it still doesn't work. I already have CWM (I pushed it on the phone wit odin) and have the stock kernel. now I just need root again

You'll have to use a computer. Do you have a mac/linux? Kuz there is a forum where you can root your phone with those types of computers

Yeah bro you need a PC. Its just so easy.to use a PC and run the one click root with cwm. What version of z4root were you trying? I have the latest version on my PC that I could put on here if you want to try it?

Are you on di18 or are you on dk28? cuz if your on di18 z4root should work. If your on dk28 than yeah you need a pc with the one click root is so simple. Its just that you do 1 click and it does it thing really fast.

Yeah, Z4Root worked for me on stock Eclair. It just took a couple attempts for it to finally work. The first time it just sat there forever, so I pulled the battery, booted back up, tried again then it worked.

Just checking to make sure. You are using the latest version right? 1.3.0
I knew this would happen eventually...
I flashed an update to go from liberty 2.0.1 to liberty gingerbread nightly... all was well until the reboot when it goes straight to bootloader. I can't get into stock recovery... do i have to Sbf?

If you cant acces CWD and are stuck at the boot logo then yes. Did you try to do a battery pull?

If you are on GB the stock recovery button pattern is different. I had the same problem on my dx. You should Google it and try that. I don't remember the button pattern. Pm me if you need more help.

Flashing a new is sbf is very easy I just done mine yesterday ( bricked mine trying to change rom too.) Now I'm back up and running without an issue. Pm me for the link to the sbf if you still need it

your ol' lady's gonna be pissed.....
Ok..sbfd...was really easy compared to using nvflash on tegra2. The longest part of the whole thing was dling the sbf file over a ****ty mi-fi connection.
Z4 root, liberty toolbox nightly, bam - running liberty gb.
Not so bad... hopefully wont bar my gf from allowing me to **** around with her phone in the future.

Is there not a way to permanently install a custom recovery on the dx? running bootstrap over and over again is really annoying... I used to use the incredible and that was a nice permanent recovery menu. I tried searching for it but all I get is this z4 root bull s%#t and no custom recovery. Am I just missing it or is bootstrapp the only way?
Lol I messed up on a rom flashing and now everytime I boot up the custum bootloading screen pops up. But other then that Idk if there is one

You can boot into recovery from rom manager.

I figured it was... That's such bs I wonder what prevents it from being permanent? It seems like the htc incredible has a much more definite root process. everything else I've dealt with seems half assed. Like Z4 root and even the samsung root doesn't seem very permanent... I don't know its seems as if I have so much more control over my incredible. Maybe im crazy.

It's mainly the Droid X's locked bootloader. On 2nd init roms we have a more (and I use more very loosely) permanent recovery.
But until we have a solution to the locked bootloader nothing can happen to give us that completely permanent recovery.

In your oppinio what are the best blurless roms for the dx? Im looking for something like CM7.

Cm7 itself is great on the Droid X =P I am currently on MIUI, and I personally think it's the greatest thing ever. There are few roms that are truly blurless.
If you're looking for a stock based rom, I've heard wonderful things about DarkslideX. Of course, it's a blur rom, though.

So I recently got a Samsung continuum from a flea market, and I am using it without activating it through Verizon. It is currently running android 2.1. When I try and update it, it gets stuck on the loading screen. Does it need to have cell service to update? Can I manually update it by flashing a rom, ext? Thanks.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Yes, it would need to be activated to get any Over The Air updates. There are some roms that you can flash, but won't guarantee that any of the links will work. Verizon never updated past Froyo, but there was a Gingerbread leak that worked well, I'm using it on my unactivated Continuum.

Sweet thanks.one more thing: how did you root your continuum? Ive tried z4root, but it didnt work and i also tried superoneclick but my computers antivirus wont let it install.

Man I really do miss this phone and everything new they put to it! Was a great experience. And lucky for you if you need any of the files I can upload them for you and what not. All still saved on my computer since I didn't bother erasing them. o: So if anything PM me or I'll just upload what you need to here.
