We have perm root, release tomorrow.

3/17/2011

We have write to /system on two production devices, from from the store. We do not have a working recovery yet, no release will be done until then.

A kind soul with a release Thunderbolt dropped by AndIRC tonight. Jamezelle and I were able to confirm Temp Root still works. I will be posting directions for it (nothing special, likely many ways to be done) tomorrow.

We did not have a chance to finish perm root testing before he had to hit the sack (can't blame him, its late). Hopefully we can get it tomorrow.

I'm super pumped for perm root. I can wait for custom roms, but this bloatware needs to GO.

bloatware needs to go, so i will wait patiently on someone posting rooting for dummies..on this site so I can get rid of the crap that came with the phone that I will never ever use...
