Root device? Safe?

Hi!
I have had this phone for a while now and thinking about rooting it so i can use droidwall and OC the phone. How is the easiest wat and is it safe?
Isak

i used z4root and no side-effect so far..

Ok, but if something goes wrong is it anyway to recover all data on the phone and just start up again?

i would say its always wise to do a backup before trying anything potentially dangerous..
u may read the other topic about recovery mode in this board for this..

Ok, gör det innan jag försöker roota

good luck and have fun..

worked perfect Thanks!

@Isakk1, can you please guide me how you rooted your u8800 using z4root?I got problem with the driver (huawei hsusb device)
hoping for your immediate response.tnx

do it in your own risk and make sure your understand what rooting is before rooting
get z4root, install it, run it, select "permanent root", wait until it reboots, done.

I need the driver dude..i keep searching on google but it's hard to find the exact file in this device.

USB driver for windows? do you see the auto mounted CD drive after plugging in? the drivers are there

Why need of drivers?
Assuming you are trying to copy z4root on your device... SD-card should mount itself when you plug usb in, just choose to mount from your phone notification are.

Moved to general.

I think this is what you're trying to do:
1. Open device manager, you will see this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then right click on the HSUSB Device choose update driver then browse my computer manually. Then browse to this:
It will then install the driver and it should show this in device manager now:
Also worthwhile would be starting cmd and running adb devices to make sure the phone is listed.

thankz a lot guys..very appreciated

i rooted my phone . but i feel it's not good idea when i use 1 week. the phone always have some issues when use, so i flash back.

Can someone upload the drivers and share the link coz I can't find the drivers on the mounted drive (it's empty) after I installed the B160 based ROM.

Drivers attached to this post

Thanks alot!

I used z4root from Applanet.net
installed easily and rooted no probs as well.

[Q] Webtop without dock

Hi I am new to this forum and I'm not an expert, I really would like to use the webtop without a dock,i tried following the instructions posted here but nothing happens, I don't know what am I missing. Am I supposed to run the install file on my computer or on my phone? When I run it on my computer a black screen appears and some command and then I says to press any key and that my phone will reboot, but nothing happens. Am I supposed to do something to my phone?
I'm on att gingerbread, not rooted, I enabled debugging mode.
Thank you

You need to root and probably deodex

You are probably right, but why then on Fenny's post it says no root or deodex needed??

oh well look at that,
you run the script from your computer but your phone has to be connected and have all the right drivers on your computer

Can you please be a little more specific, I have the drivers for motorola media link and the phone portal, also for usb connection.

do you know what ADB is and how to use it?

No. I don't know... I just enabled the debugging mode on my phone

ok connect your phone to hyhour computer and make sure the computer knows it is connected
then run the script

good advice
If I were you I'd be VERY CAREFUL and investigate and learn all you can BEFORE doing any mods on your phone. Too many phones have been bricked (rendered useless) by running things you know little about.

I did that but the doesn't do anything, it doesn't reboot like it says on the script. I know it's connected because when I enable debugging I see the pop up screen for the internal memory and the sd card

Thanks for your concern I really appreciate it.what I like about this is that doesn't require root

Root
Hi
I also had exactly the same problem.
I wanted webtop, without really rooting my device.
It didnt work out. Also ran the script no reboot etc.
I then rooted my device, Fenny assisted me to create 2 files for the stock 2.2.2 atrix 4g (The older version of the os)
I copied them manually using root explorer, rebooted, and walla, i had the webtop working.
I still have those files.....
If you need them, PM me, its worth a try...

[Q] ADB connection problem - Device Offline

This is weird. I never had this problem with my Galaxy S3.
I've enabled USB Debugging on the phone.
Even toggled it off, rebooted and turned it on again.
I've also rebooted my computer and even updated SDK Toolkit.
No change in problem though.
Every time I try to connect to my phone from ADB, it just tells me the device is offline (see attached pic).
Any ideas?

Try this
http://www.wugfresh.com/faqs/how-to-fix-adb-device-is-listed-as-offline-on-android-4-2-2/
And if you do a Google search for
how to fix adb device offline
It comes up with other things to try
Sent from my A500 using Tapatalk HD

Thanks, I tried the info in that link but never got the pop-up asking for ADB permissions.
I did google prior to posting also. I listed in my OP what I tried (which is what my googling suggested).
I'm about to ODIN back to factory stock anyways. So I'll try again after that. Maybe I messed something up during all the bloatware removal I did yesterday.

Nope, a fresh ODIN install of stock ROM didn't help at all.
Guess I'll have to uninstall & reinstall Android Toolkit maybe.
EDIT:
Using Motochopper root tool, I finally got the popup. And made sure to select "always allow from this computer". I think that should fixit.
EDIT #2:
Nope, that didn't help at all. Still "offline".
EDIT #3:
Actually, using the ADB from Motochopper does work. It's just the ADB from my Android Toolkit that doesn't work.

Sounds like one in android tool kit is out of date
Try updating the android sdk

Get an OTG cable and connect a thumb drive or micro so card reader directly to your phone.
Mount the drive in twrp and flash a rom from the drive.

Just guessing but the reason some of the roms did not flash may be down to the twrp version you are using. Make sure you are on the latest, and if not, flash it.
Wifi issue is probably baseband - do you have the correct one.?

Even though the forum "seems" to support it, you can't embed images. You have to attach them, which means uploading from your computer.
