This was posted in another thread here, but it needs its own. (if someone beat me to it, please delete).

A .nbh image file has been released that will allow you to downgrade your rc30 phone to rc29 which will re-introduce the root bug. Once there you can follow the steps to get root access, install the modified recovery image and flash JF's rc30 and keep root! The steps can be found in various threads on this forum, and also in my wiki.

To downgrade using this NBH file: http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.ph...=Root_For_RC30
To gain root access: http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.ph...ooting_Android
To flash the recovery and install modified rc30: http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.ph...e=Keeping_Root

Good luck to everyone stuck on RC30 who wanted root, its finally here!

By the way, I got this info from disconnects site (gotontheinter.net) and I believe (might be wrong) he got it from here somewhere.

Hehe. I knew someone out there still had a copy of the RC29 NBH. This is great news!

I'll update my stickied post and host the NBH as well.

Nice, spread this fast!! all those users who have wanted root and its here. We need them all to get it before tmo or google find a way to block this!! Someone slashdot it!!! (just please dont slashdot my site directly lol, im on shared hosting)

Yehaaa, best christmas present, however a bit late

Anyone already tried it out?

To avoid creating two stickies with overlapping information, I suggest putting a prominent link in the first post to Koush's main sticky on rooting.

will this work on tc5-rc8 uk

Nope, we'll need a different .nbh file for that. With luck someone'll find it soon

works on stock RC30 just fine..
