Good man...

Do as he did... DONT DOWNLOAD OTA's!!!! Wait for Rooted Versions to be Released by Carriers and Download that...


This time its easy the Root version was released before the Official its a no brainer People

Notice how many of these questions started with unrevoked.

USE THE LINK POSTED ON THE FIRST PAGE TO DOWNLOAD THE ROOTED OTA FROM XDA. DON'T USE THE OTA THAT YOUR PHONE DOWNLOADS.

I didnt wanna say anything but.... HAHAHAHA

Am hearing mixed messages. The ROM from XDA appears to require a full wipeout of the phone. The OTA simply doesn't work on rooted phone, got that..

Using unrevoked3, it sounds like many are able to apply the manual update and then run unrevoked3 again, not having to wipe the phone out. This seems to be the way to go, not the XDA ROM.

I know how you hate unrevoked, but I don't think it's really the problem. The problem is the people that are using it. I used unrevoked 3.21 and I have had absolutely no problems at all, but I fully read the directions and understood what I was doing before I did it.

I think too many people are just using it without fully reading the directions and they don't understand what they are doing. They think because it's a "one click root" they can just install it and be done. They don't think they will screw anything up because it's the "easy way". If people can't handle unrevoked, they don't have a prayer of doing it the long way.

Yes, it has been working to do the OTA then root again but it's much better to wipe and start with a cleanly installed ROM. Getting your data back after a wipe is no big deal if you have it backed up.

Titanium Back up...


Little Tip Only back up Apps...


I've seen horror stories with backing up Settings going from one rom to another...

Do as you please though

I agree. I didn't say everybody. Nobody has said it's everybody.

Well I think Im getting my point across now with my SIG... Lets see how well this turns out...

 

[hawaiijedi]

So after I flash the root version of the OTA is there anything else I need to do? Do i need to update the PRI?? If so how do I do that? I really appreciate your help, Im kinda new at this with android.

 

[Sugewhyte]

I have a feeling that its going to be more than a simple put on sd card and flash...from what I have been reading over at xda.

 

[hawaiijedi]

so do i need too update pri after flashing rooted rom?
