Dear RyanZA,
Sorry if I am troubling you.But I sincerely want your help. I have a Motorola Milestone 2.1 Update 1 of Italian make.1 want to upgrade to 2.2 Froyo.This I want to do without any cumbersome rooting process.I came to know your z4root can do this.I don't know what rooting is and what are its advantages.Will you enlighten me about it and give me step by step instructions to root and install Froyo 2.2 or Gingerbread?Also what other applications are to be installed along with Froyo for its efficient functioning?Please don't disappoint me or feel anything against for these bland questions as I am not a techy in these matters.Waiting for your help.......
with regards,

Default If it doesn't work, reboot

Downloaded from Market, enabled USB debugging, run z4root->Stays forever in Running exploit ....""

Reboot phone (hold power until reboots), run again-> Root in 20 seconds.

Samsung Galaxy S i9000, Froyo 2.2 JPA official Kies update.

This seems to happen when there is other program running in the background.
I advising all to clean the memory before apply this.

Decent chance it won't. I would actually hope that Google would fix security flaws!!

But as always, I'm sure there are more exploits that can be found anyway.

Cool Perfect on ZT-180

Did anyone succeed on ZT-180 tablet (android 2.1)?
I've tried with .20 and now I'll try again with the latest.

EDIT: It works wonderfully!

So if you use this, root your phone and 2.3 comes out, do you simply unroot first or do you just go ahead and take the OTA update?

I just got the Archos 101. This will give me temp root right? So I can at least use Titanium to flash all my apps and save all my data from my phone and transfer it all over? Then reboot and be back to normal. Nothing happens or changes right? I just wont be rooted anymore after a reboot

Right?
-Google Nexus ne / MyTouch 4G / Sensation 4G / Galaxy Nexus LTE
More not worth mentioning

-CM7+Nightly's on all
-CWM Recovery
-Kingston 16GB Class 10 / Patriot 16GB Class 10 x2 and a 32GB somewhere

Guys,

I just did a temp root on my Galaxy S. Tempting to try OCLF. Do I need to uninstall OCLF before I do a reboot of my phone as it will unroot?

Default nexus one ota update frg83d

i got the FRG83D OTA update yesterday for my nexus one, and now today i noticed i didn't have root anymore! so now its stuck on "all to external" mode for the "app2 sd" app... i tried to root again with z4 root and all it did was force close. So i tried to update it because there was an update for it today, and it wouldn't. I decided to uninstall and then try to reinstall z4 but now i cant install it at all! it wont allow me to install to the default location which is external or sd. i tried downloading z4 through the xda website on my phone but it told me phone does not support those files. I've downloaded .apk files before so I'm thinking its the update? So I went ahead an downloaded it on my pc and I thought id transfer it to my sd card and install it that way. It didn't allow me to do it, so now I'm stuck and cant install apps from the market or update them. What should i do?


I tried to explain as much as possible so if this is happening to someone else maybe we can all get helped at the same time. This is my first time rooting my phone also, Ive only had Z4 root for like a week. Any info would be nice... just plz let me know if my nexus will be ok! lol
