You must have faith that things actually happen in life without getting prior approval from you first.

Hmm... I'm not really sure what the hell your talking about, all I did was post a link and doubt it's functionality with our devices since it was done with a Vibrant. I'd test the method myself if I was more comfortable with Odin and ADB but unfortunately I'm not a mad scientist like half the guys on this site. I merely wanted guidance like 80% of us who don't know what we're doing. Forgive me needing assistance.

Funny that you said my post isn't the video and then you post the same video in your original post... makes sense.

dude the first words out of the guy in the videos mouth say he is using a tmobile vibrant not a fascinate, it has been established all over that the fascinate root method is different so no it wont work

i just tried it with a buddy and it didnt work. sorry. but let me know if anyone has better luck.

I hate when people think that since the fascinate is a galaxy s "Variant" its supposed to work with anything from all other galaxy s phones.
Just like dumb htc users that swear all htc phones can run same roms, root etc.

I reread my comment to you earlier and it sounded maybe harsher than was meant but the site i left is different than yours but someone said they have tried and it didnt work. I am aware it was a vibrant but the cat said it would also work on ours. No hard feelings.

LOL the only difference in links was yours was a mobile link and mine was not. No big deal though

New to the X10 - suggestions?

My buddy just got an X10 - I'm very familiar with other android phones, but this one seems a little unique. I also noticed he is running 1.6.
What suggestions would you guys make?
Root possible? If so, what is the best method and custom ROM?
Are there plans for 2.1+ in the near future?
Any must have apps?
What are the safe apps to remove if root is possible?
You guys get the idea.. sorry for not browsing too much, but I can't learn a new phone in such a short period, especially when it's not mine.

sorry, but did you even open a single x10 thread before asking;P? hehe
yes, use oneclick.apk (for root)
we are all waiting for 2.1 these days(and last months)
estrongs file explorer, app manager, sec manager++ rock player, unifyed remote, at least
Edit: but guess you already knew that, oneclick is root/unroot, in guess what.. One click ;D

Trust me, read some of my posts for the phones I do own, and you will see I acknowledge how bad it is to post without researching, but I also admitted this is not my phone and do not want to put too much energy into it.
XDA is full of people willing to help, and you guys know this phone better than I ever will. My buddy could use some help...

Tell your friend to sign up here then and read the forum, that way people might put a bit more energy in to helping.

Wow. Thanks for all of the help. I'm going to head back to my section where I would have already received help. For the record, he was sent a link to XDA about 3 hours ago... that doesn't mean I'm not going to try and help.
Thanks again for EVERYTHING.

Members in this section don't like to go over what's already been gone over many times before, especially when you've stated "read some of my posts for the phones I do own, and you will see I acknowledge how bad it is to post without researching" but then do so anyway.
If your friend joins, reads, then asks questions on the numerous threads which answer what you asked then people will be more than happy to help.

I just started on this site within the last few weeks, and everything you need to know could have been answered with about ten min of reading, less time than it took to post your questions and wait for replies

Sarcasm?
Did you miss the first reply in this thread answering your questions...?
Whatever you do, if you root, don't delete system apps. (IE: Timescape, Mediascape, Dialer, Browser).

i know what i want now. i rooted my phone so how about some suggestion
best way to backup phone
what are your most used apps would like to try some you use
i looked but cant find in setting menu how to make the ringtone play normal

- Get CWM backup, to full backup your device, if you have used ghost/acronis for your PC, it is just like that. another is titanium backup, My backup Pro
- Its depends on your taste, As i always have >100 non stock app on my device, difficult to say which one you like, just search market for different category
- I don't understand your question, but i guess you saying about ascending ring tone??
if yes, there are some mods/ROM available to disacble it. find in development section.

You dont need to root your Note to make it better. It is perfect as it is. Dont listen to these guys wanting you to root unles that is what you want of course

You are already late m8
If you had carefully read 2 post above yours, you cud find, he has already rooted.

thank you dr.ketan your advice was most helpful about titanium backup. it's a little hard at first but now i understand. i'm coming from a regular phone so this is all very different and exciting for me. i bought it to join 2012 lol

Sorry friend. My bad.

Rooting my phone?

Hello guys.
(I tried to post 3 links but I couldn't since I'm a new user)
I recently upgraded my Note 3 from KitKat to Lollipop using this firmware and following some steps on sammobile.
I thought that I had rooted my phone but apparantly not, as a kind redditer explained to me here my thread was called "supsersu doesnt work since i upgraded to 5.0" on the /AndroidQuestions section.
He also adviced me to join XDA forums if I need help and that's why I am here. Basically I need to root my Note 3 to version 5.0 using Odin. The only problem is that I have Odin on my computer ( Here was a picture of my Odin map on my computer ) but I cant see the root file there? So my question is basically: How/Where do I find the root file?
I tried searching some on the forum but I guess my searching skills are terrible as I couldn't find something (and I'm pretty sure it should be somewhere here, so yeah my searching skills probably suck).
A huge thanks in advance!

Hello. Thanks for nothing, especially after I said that I already had searched for the solution and not found it and after I explained that I'm not very good at technology as well.
Anyway, since you "helped" me I'll help you back. But since I can't post links I'll just tell you to go to google and search for "How to not be a ****".
Good luck.

Please dude just get out of my thread already.
I wrote a thread and asked politely for help and I explained that my technological skills were bad. I even wrote:
"I tried searching some on the forum but I guess my searching skills are terrible as I couldn't find something (and I'm pretty sure it should be somewhere here, so yeah my searching skills probably suck)."
And still you gave me a cocky lmgtfy link. Do you know how to read and understand English? Cause else u wouldn't have sent that link. Unless you just wanted to be a complete ****. And judging from your replies in this thread (and some other) it's obvious that you're just a ****.
Anyone that read this thread will probably agree with me that your behavior is childish and that you're not very friendly at all.
Now stop polluting my thread, and please get out of here.

gotta say YOU are part of the reason XDA is the way it is now ... instead of just getting your 15 sec of fame or whatever with your stupid answer ... why say anything that is NOT helpful? are you that pathetic you just had to be the first to reply? are your parents not paying enough attention to you? I just don't get it ... very effing frustrating ...
as for your request try searching all the threads and use a keyword to assist the search

We have ALL been where he is now, however a vast majority of us decided to use that good old google to answer, umm pretty much every question he asked. Are we just supposed to google everything for him/her? Maybe even create a summarized audio book for them. I have 0 problem helping someone find the answer to a difficult or obscure question, but ffs. But great way to be toxic, real asset to the community.

Why? Did he ask to be sppon fed? He mentioned coming back to android and might be out of the loop ... correct? Just go away i have wasted precious 10 minutes of my life on you.

FD is almost identical to F, software and guides are the same for both. Do not use U or W guides, as they are different phones!
