No need unlock bootloader, also can root arc in 1 minute.

you can root to 2.1, you can only flash.
My E15a is rooted. Refer to this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906195
I also have e15a rooted.
Don't forget to install busybox after rooting! If you try to enable JIT and you don't have busybox, you'll have to reflash.
BTW there's an app on the market called "busybox". It will install it on the phone. Worked for me.

If i flash CyanogenMod 7 is there a possibility to brick my Arc?

Hi
I downloaded the repository of cyanogenMod it run gingerbread 2.3.4 so i am trying to port to Arc and try to learn and i built it, its generic and i tested it on the emulator and it worked.
now if i want to flash my Arc for a test will it brick my Arc???
i have the system.img but i am not sure if its safe to test it on my Arc and not briking it. if not then i will test and if anything happened i will reflash with Bin4ry's image.
unless you've modded it to work with the Arc hardware (drivers/ screen resolution etc) then it simply won't work.. so you probably shouldn't bother taking the risk..
There is already someone working on this.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1057555
yes i am monitoring the thread. but i wanted to try to miss and take a look on the files.
Chances are u could just use flashtool and it would be fine

He has bootloader unlock and might be better to push Bin4ry's .img file.
Well yea that way would save his data but if it sent work obviously flashtool send me the cm7 over ill try n boot it aswell

It's impossible to brick the phone completely by flashing system.img. So you're safe.
Thanks guys.

Well setool method is better, allow you to be unlocked sim/bootloader and you still can use OTA updates and pc companion for updates.
add me to gtalk if you need help with that: alejandrissimo[at]gmail.com
Tnx but I already purchased from omnius..
Thx anyway

No, it doesn't. The only trick is to restore the system folder to it's original state, because the update fails. I'm with 62 rooted in that way.
Come on guys, so much threads about .62 root, so use these threads.
