Just popped in to let you know that my post no2 is NOT and index, but rather a reference post for people answering questions to refer to when helping. Just in case if anyone wondered why I needed it.

Check this out!

Download that image, download the su binaries and apk. Put all that in your directory with fastboot.exe, open a command prompt.

Code:

fastboot boot boot.img

When the phone is booted make sure adb debugging is enabled. Then proceed.

Code:

adb shell mount -o remount,rw /system
adb push su /system/bin/
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/
adb shell chmod 0655 /system/bin/su
adb shell chmod 0655 /system/app/Superuser.apk
adb reboot

Now, I haven't yet run this, as far as I know, no one has, but that should be it

An OTA appeared within 30 minutes of turning on my phone. I haven't installed it yet though.

Shouldn't this be in android development rather than general?

Well I put it here in General first. It then got moved to Android Development and then got moved over here again.
It doesn't really make a difference to me where it is

MusicMan374 · Nov 17, 2012

There's also one of these in development... Kind of confusing

KidCarter93 · Nov 17, 2012

That got closed down though because this one already existed.
