Is there a way to over clock the G2 without using the ABD method ??? Because I dont have a home computer and my G2 is my only thing thats linking me to the net...
If your rooted just download the kerenl zip file and place it on the root of your sd card and flash it from recovery. You can do all of that from your phone.
If your not rooted then you must first get temp root using Visionary, then use the Gscript method, all of which can be done with your phone. Heres a video on how to do it from blackprince310

Your not planning to perm root your phone?? Cause stock rom doesn't have any built in kernels so u can only use script to overclock your phone but if your perm rooted u can use setcpu to automatically change ur profiles or automatically overclock u every reboot without the hassle..

I've managed to temporary root my HTC legend with z4root.It works.Butt z4root eats up 20mb of space.
Anyone tried this?
Thnaks in advance
???...How do You mean temporary root?
Can You now, in temp root use Titanium Backup or ROM Manager ?
I ask because I was upgrade to WWE Froyo last veak and want to try BLaY0 and AllWin ROM-s, but I do not know which steps I need to do ...
Any sugestion or guideline was more than apprechiated
Temporary root like it use to work with universal androot on Eclair.You loose root after reboot.
Visionary also works for temproot in Froyo...
Swyped from my HTC Legend
I tried temporary root on 2.2 OTA legend, no problem. it also gives the superuser access. But after reboot, the superuser access no longer works but icon still there.
When I tried permanent root, it will reboot the phone by itself, say in 30 seconds time. After reboot, nothing happen either. I try many times to do permanent root but still fail.
P/S: using z4root 1.3.0
I went the z4 thread, did a quick search, 2 people said perm root works for 2.2, 1 said it didn't.

Anyone else has a verdict on this?
I can make a temp root, but when i try to perm root it, it reboot and i'm not rooted (checked with root checker)
Using visionary saves a lot of space...it does the same as z4root but way faster and only requires like 3 mb.
You can not permroot the legend with either one, because the legend is one of the devices where the manufacturer added another security measurement to make rooting harder.

You can only root temporary. Yes you can use titanium backup and rom manager. With rom manager you can't install roms. If you install clockwork recovery you will be screwed since the only way to get your recovery back will be to run a RUU, then you might as well downgrade and root permanent.
Yes I also lost 20 mb of free space.

If you just wanna use apps that require root like titanium backup you're fine with temporary root.
But if you wanna install a custom rom you'll need to do it the hard way.

This is wrong, as installing clockworkmod recovery via ROM Manager on Legend will just put a fake-flash update.zip on the SD-Root.
So its like:

If you flash clockworkmod like you mean you'd need S-OFF.
S-OFF requires ROOT afaik.

For Legends it also means you have to be HBOOT 1.00 or less. There is no way to S-OFF HBOOT 1.01 or above.

Thats correct at the moment.
But I just wanted to argue that you dont loose your original Recovery just by installing CWM via RomManager, because you need Hard Root for getting S-OFF (by the way, I had it, but i had to remove it again by using RUU because I've sent my Legend to HTC)

At the time I was using temporary root and were on HBOOT 0.43, firmware 1.31(?), and was new to HTC. I installed Clockworkmod recovery and lost the option as I have mentioned before. Updated to FroYo since I thought that could bring the option back in settings but it stayed the same. Only reset through bootmenu. Oh well, could be I'm wrong in some way since I was new to HTC then...

You have to be below 1.0 - If you have 1.0 you will not be able to do S-OFF

Hello XDA community, I have a root problem on my device. Im using Super_ONE_Click to root my Vibrant on 2.2 Froyo UVKA6 with Kernel V. 2.6.32.9
The problem is that somehow the root access is declining attempts from applications like Root Tools, Titanium BackUP, Root Explorer ect.... When i root the phone it did installed the Super User (SU) apk to the phone but is not giving me permissions to root access.
What it went wrong when it was ok before and now it dont. How can i root my device using a different method then SOC?
Is there anything I can do?
I dont want to start all over again installing soft and games as it took me lot of time to get the SD files for the games I have.
Any advise to root before going to ODIN as a last option?
Thanks guys

Ok, so I ran the superoneclick and it says it was successful and I have superuser on my phone but if I try to use any root programs like titanium backup it says I'm not rooted, any suggestions?
Super oneclick only gives you temporary root, so after you reboot you loose root. On most phones it gives you permanent root but the way the kernel is designed on the intercept it doesn't work. There is an app in the intercept 2.2 development thread at sdx-developers that gives you permanent root and flashes cm recovery to allow you to flash zips to install mods roms and themes!!easy to use!!

Would highly recommend you click over to the dev section - link posted that will give you perma root. Quite simple to do.

I was wondering why my Intercept wasn't holding root... one thing about that app: you have to change the .ch (or is it .sh) files to use stl5. They're written for stl9.
Also, I've used this app about 50 times on my Intercept and it's not working. Its just adding more files to my phone, causing it to slow down more. If it doesn't work and you want a break, use adb shell to delete the files added. I tried using SuperOneClick in combination with the SDX app and that didn't work either. My suggestion is to use SuperOneClick for temp root and flash a rooted kernel and ROM, which is what I'm going to do at some point.

Hmmmm sounds like you are making things more complex then they actually are - took me about 5 seconds to gain perma root without any file name changes.

That's me! I did that with my Wii also lol!
The OneClickRoot program just isn't working for me. I only mentioned the stl5 thing because someone else mentioned it in the SDX thread hosting this program, figured I'd mention it because it's several posts in. I changed mine because SuperOneClick said my mount point was /.../.../stl5 (the ...s are directories I don't remember).
[EDIT] Instead of doing all that, try the post below me. if that doesn't work, just break it down and do it manually... Flash a rooted kernel, then recovery, make your backups, then flash custom roms. I was using all stock when I first wrote the post, but now I'm using SlapKernel, bROM, and CM01 recovery. I WAS making it too complicated lol!

damn glad you got it running - you are further then me now on my Intercept - all I have is root so I can use my 3g as a wifi hotspot for my Acer Iconia a500 tablet need to look into custom roms for the intercept, the Virgin Mobile stock 2.2 is so slow :-(
Stock is somewhat slow. Make sure you read the directions though with rom flashing. I messed up my phone for a few hours from not doing the steps correctly with a certain rom. All sorts of fun! I flashed a rooted stock kernel from sdx, as well as stock rom (idk if roms are rooted? Its depends on the kernel right? Ill google it...) and a kernel package that has some tweaks to the stock (or any) kernel. I gotta say, adding Zeam launcher to a rooted and tweaked stock is running quite well for me.

After you turn s-off you need to root one last time. just reboot the phone, then press temp root then perma root and your done.
aight, I tried searching, and the few threads that mentioned this, was for full rooted phones... I'm on stock sense, permarooted using VISIONary+, etc... I got the OTA update at 12am, tried to do it, and the phone locked up on the screen with the phone and a red lightning bolt... did a battery pull, did the "unroot" via VISIONary, and the phone works fine... am I going to receive the OTA update again, or should I DL the zip file from the other thread, put it on my SD card, and power up + volume key, etc... pretty much, any help or suggestions is appreciated... lol

Impossible. You must not be truly perm rooted since rooted phones (even those running the stock ROM), don't get OTA updates. You must have TEMP rooted with Visionary. The only way to truly perm root with Visionary is in conjunction with the root.sh script.
i didn't edit any script past what visionary does... it's probably the equivalent of a temproot, but I don't have to redo it every time I reboot... I haven't touched it in months... I used the unroot function, so I'm not sure if the "run visionary.sh after root" or the "set system r/w after root" were checked... I know jack **** about this stuff, that's why I'm here... lol
this means youre not rooted. so if you want the update just walk in to a tmo store and have them update it with their sd card update.
That's funny.. my superpower, shootme, and TI backup are working... like I said.. I didn't s-off root my phone, but I do have SU privledges
