I'm on rooted ZVH and want ZVJ. Plus, I don't have Windows. Help!

[jmgotham]

I can't seem to find a way to go from a rooted ZVH to a rooted ZVJ if I'm using Ubuntu. Anybody know off the top of their head where I can find some guidance? Thanks...

No no no no. Wine will not work.

You will need Windows to use the automated program.

Correct, wine will not work do to usb driver issues... The manual root method is possible though using a linux shell; it's how I updated both the Optimus S' in my relative possession.

Because adb requires direct access to the usb subsystem. It doesn't get that in Wine.

Basically any system tool (like ADB is) will not function in Wine. Also, there is no way to install (read: use) Windows drivers in Wine.

Download the Android SDK for Linux, There will be a program (I believe it's just called android), Install only the platform tools to get ADB. Then follow the manual rooting instructions. That's the easiest thing I can tell you.

If you want to use ADB outside of the platform-tools directory, you can either
sudo cp ./adb /usr/bin

or

export PATH=$PATH:/home/username/downloads/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/ (change this path to reflect where you're storing the SDK)

ShadowEO,
I figured I would have to do that. I was just hoping there was an easier/sloppier way. Thanks for confirming my suspicions!
