With the DInc Froyo OTA still on deck, what could this new software possibly mean for us?
Any ideas, folks?
Yes, I know in a few hours it will be unveiled probably, but I want to know what YOU think.

Wow finally, eh? Thats a break from the more usual f_off lol.
Since this thread is already made, would anyone mind telling me 1 or 2 benefits of this? I'm a noob and really only know about rooting, flashing ROMs and some standard stuff in adb. How will having s_off help the herd of people like myself, or is it only for the devs and super nerds (no offense).

From what I understand, it allows you to flash new HBOOTs/radios at will, delete components within the /system folder while the phone is up and running, etc. I'm sure there are a host of other things, but that's what I'm aware of so far.
I guess all things Unrevoked Forever/s-off are in the "Unrevoked Tweet" thread in General topic. I'd link to it but am using the app and I don't think there's a way to do it.

Story of the Incredible's short life...
j/w, they are holding the fort down because of bricking (which I appreciate, I rather not have software that could cost me my phone and from what I've read it's almost a 50/50 rate bricking rate at that, not a <1% issue), however I'm curious which phone(s) it's affecting (the initial release was suppose to support Evo's and DInc's... so are both phone having bricking issues or only one of them).
Regarding the now-released Unrevoked Forever tool...

I understand that the question might provoke a bit of negative response as it could be PERCEIVED as a lack of appreciation towards ALL those cooking ROMS. Im sure no offense is meant by the qursetion though. As a not so hard rule, the ROMS most recent are usually based on the most recent kernels (which have improvements and latest tweaks and latest apps, but not necessarily are the best). So I suggest you try a few different ones, but maybe starting from the latest.
May I take the opportunity to thank all cookers who have contributed one way or another to us today having roms that are fantastic.
WTF

Make sure you have a recent Radio (the 2.15.50.14 works fine with Android and WM).

Having 2 posts means nothing .... it does not mean that OP s not got common sense and it does not mean he cant read ...
number of posts is never really important ...
but i do believe people who can use a phone can read and understand enuf to not post stuff in the wrong forum eh ?
maybe this should be moved to someplace else ...
"but we have a search feature!!!!"
if you don't like this tread then why are you reading it? if it's posted in the wrong category, then surely a mod will move it. in the mean time, try to carry on in your self-inflicted misery individually, instead of dragging everyone else into your negativity.
If you know how to do it for your co-worker, I'm assuming you have experience, so wouldn't you know which build is stable by now?
Look at my signature. That's the most stable combo for me, works flawlessly as a daily build.

Thus, further proving my point that the OPs question was valid. ROMs are coming out daily and managing to get 2.3 running on a Hero (quite possibly the least suitable phone for 2.3 in regards to hardware) furthers the validity of the OPs question.
what is wrong with people being greddy with updates?when we were on 2.1 ppl gt angry and want 2.2 even if our phones wasbetter than everything else on 2.2 wen were on 2.1..now we are tasting 2.2 everyone wants 2.3?wtf is wrong with u guys?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
My expectations are high for having 2.3 on Epic sooner than later, given the similarities innhardware with Nexus S. I know there is more to it than just copying it over from another device, but I would hope It would be faster than the time it took for us to get Froyo.
Seeing the Hero run it is just amazing. I mean, I would expect Evo up there as one of the first, but not Hero.
Keep supporting and encouraging our devs and soon we will see it!
You would be amazed at how fast this runs on a hero, the queen of lagging. You all are in for a treat when it does get ported or released.

Your kidding right! You crack me up. Just cause it boots up on a hero it is far from fully functioning and they even said without source many things won't even work. It is very unstable. I got an idea, why don't you start porting it over since you have high expectations. I'll be here waiting for your beta! What a waste of time :~) You need at least Gingerbread OTA or source in order to get that Hero fully functioning!

Never once did I say that I was running a fully functional version of 2.3 on my Hero, but back to the OPs remark.
"Is it possible to make a custom rom with android 2.3 for samsung epic?"
I do have a custom rom with android 2.3 running on my hero. So, yes, it is very possible. Now will the devs working on the Epic do this? Maybe not.
I would be willing to bet that I run a 2.3 ROM way before any of you will thanks to the kind devs working with the Hero.
With that being said, I apologize for stumbling on the Epic forum while trying to help a friend root his device. You may go on with your life bashing those who ask repeat questions. I would like to take this time to thank the majority of you for convincing me not to use my upgrade on the Epic if not only for the sole reason of lack of support. I will happily wait for a dual core A9 powered device to come out and stick to my dysfunctional Hero!

Do you feel better about yourself now Mr. Assbag?
Had my mytouch 4g for like 3 weeks now, rooted the first day i got it and tired a whole lot of roms soon to find out i had the bad emmc chip AND bad screen fml. So now i don't want risk my phone on getting bricked or anything. I rooted my MT4g using the form "TRUE PermaRoot and the ULTIMATE S=Off!!!" now i figured out how to unroot by using the form "Automated way to unroot your myTouch 4G (difficulty level 1)" but my question is it safe to use this after flashing "TMOUS MT4G 2.3.4 ROOTED with new radio" I still want to have the new ota update but unrooted with s-on? any suggestions on how? PLEZ and Thank you for your time

Did you read the thread till it says "Procedure to revert"?
And remember - once you unroot and S-ON back, you can't root again unless you downgrade and wipe everything.
Yea but i also want to have the new update and I'm wondering if there is a way to revert and keep the same update get me? Haha
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
Reverting doesn't reflash the ROM, just restores the security flag and removes root.
But there is absolutely no reason to.
The best would be just to run Gfree to restore S-ON, and leave it as is. If the phone is to be bricked - the ROM won't boot anyway, and the bootloader will be S-ON, so there won't be anything suspicious visible on the phone.
Well try this.. but if I do this well I get the manual updates? Or should I just download the offical 2.3.4 pd15img file and put it on the sd card so I can flash on hboot ? I know this loses root (just what I want ) but well it get s-on that why or should I get s-on first like how yoy told me and then do this?? And well this br safe since the radio changed on the rooted version?
sorry for my noobish quesitons.

I want to do this as well, so when you find out pm me cause no one will help me on my post about this. But anyways, i think you have to be on stock radio in order to flash the gingerbread update pd15img.zip file. I'm not for sure, i think i saw it somewhere on these forums.
There is a good reason nobody posts - because all the info has been posted and you have been pointed to it, and most people don't want to post the same thing 15 times again and again. The rooting thread contains the procedure to unroot. You want to unroot? Follow it.

If you're dumb enough not to know, what kind of damage repeating questions cause to the forum - go educate yourself, or make your brain work and answer one simple question - why didn't you get your answers yet? And I guess you're not only dumb, but also blind, since the link is above your post and there are at least 5 threads in Development forum that talk about unrooting, and most probably 2 or 3 of them are in the first pages of the forum.
One would probably look at my status and think that "thanks" didn't arrive from nowhere, and definitely not from "little talk". I guess this is too much to ask, since it assumes the ability to think.
Your attitude is disgusting.
laziness and not enough reading of the forums lead to these types of threads.

So because we read and understand how to perform an unroot we have no lives?
Ok first of all I would like to thanks you guys for helping trying to answer my question. Technically I got my answer but it's not the answer I'm looking for... pretty much I would like to change my answer a little bit. By my understanding you can't just flash the new gingerbread update 2.3.4 if your rooted and have s-off (unless it's the rooted/detoxed one which I currently have and also I included THE NEW RADIO) you need to be unrooted with s-off right? So what I'm thinking now is I'm just going to unroot my phone using the automated way (for the gfree root) so now my question is it safe to do this with the rom I have? Because I have read forms that once you update to the new ginger bread you cant downgrade? Or that it's just a little more difficult to do right? ( I don't know if has to do anything with the rooted one I have btw) so if I unroot using that method well it root since I'm technically going to downgrade right? Since the unroot process says I have to flash the PD15IMG.zip which I think it would be an older version. So that being said can I just unroot using that method but insted of using the PD15IMG.zip they give you can I used the new gingerbreed PD15IMG.zip file well that work?!?!?!

My guess is cause he's a retired mod and still has some ties I think stevie should do it. It's not like our section would require much work. We're pretty easy going here. Plus, I think it helps when the mod uses the device for the section that they are moderating. It gives much better insight than some people who could care less about us and our phones. Not all mods are like that but I've seen quite a few just don't get it or are on some silly power trip.
I agree... Steviewevie could do this in his sleep...its always fun when Whiskey just comes storming in and cleans house with his flair and then leaves as fast as he came.
I was thinking about my next device... I think I will just get what Steviewevie gets...because he's a resource of knowledge and you just want him nearby!
