What am I doing wrong here? Followed all the steps up to the Revolutionary window and keep on getting the invalid beta key error. I am copying and pasting it directly from the proper places but cannot get it to work. For some stupid reason I unrooted and would like to root again. Help please.

When you're copying and pasting make sure to only copy the key

I are an idiot, I neglected to see the fact that there are two ZEROS in there, I thought they were two Os. I got it now, flashing Thundershed to see if it has changed any since May. I keep on returning to this ROM even though I yip about it when I have it. trter10-2 God Bless you and all the developers for taking the time to do this for us idiots I promise I shall make a donation as soon as I can.

Hi, I'm trying to root and don't have an SD card in the phone but do have a screen that, after a "Waiting for SD Card to mount" timeout and "Installation aborted", says:

Revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4
Use volume keys to highlight...
-Reboot system now
-apply sdcard:update.zip
-wipe data/factory reset
-Wipe cache partition
-Install zip from sdcard
-backup and restore
- mounts and storage
- Advanced
- ++++Go back++++

Is it possible/safe to continue without an SD Card in the phone? I am trying to recover some data that is on the phone.
 
Reboot system and run option 6 in extras menu, you need an sdcard

I was terrified of screwing up my phone, but decided the hell with it and downloaded this tool. I followed the instructions to a T. My phone sat on a white screen with different options on it. IT stayed like that for around 5 minutes. My first thought was " Now you did it dummy, you just bricked your phone". As panic started setting in, I reread the instructions and this thread. Then I realized that it would take about 10 minutes to fully complete. 5 minutes later, I saw the message on the computer screen it was rebooting the phone and the process was complete. I then ran the tool again. This time it showed up that my phone was successfully rooted and opened the additional menus options. This tool worked great and was perfect for a rooting noob like me.

Next trick will be to figure out how to install a custom rom. Can I install a custom rom using this tool?

You will be able to install a rom with v0.2. I'm hoping to finish it soon.

Hey everyone, just a caution. I tried to follow all of these steps and all of my apps and contacts were deleted. And, as far as I can tell, my phone was not rooted. In fact, at the end of the process, I had several strange sites pop up. I could have done the process wrong, so this is just a warning

what!? :O
There's nothing in this rooting tool that wipes data or causes any of that, you are talking about this right?

And please by all means send me the logs and check your boot loader for unlocked because there is no reason at all this should do anything of the sort

Sorry, but what does "check your boot loader" mean?

Remove battery, replace it, hold volume down and power until hboot shows, then write down all it says at the top left corner. Then select fastboot then select reboot.
