Ultimate Noob Rooter [Mytouch Slide]

Making Rooting easier for people, I present to you

Ultimate Noob Rooter

I have built this following the rooting techniques from the following places:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=754020
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.ph...l_Update_Guide

By using this method, you agree that you take full responsabily of any actions or concequences
that might happen to you or your phone. Once again, I will not be responsible for anything.

STEPS

Make sure your phone is connected to your PC, if it asks to install drivers just click yes..

1) Download: http://www.fileserve.com/file/M6guyMH
2) Extract the .zip folder named "RootMEnow.zip" anywhere on your computer
3) Open cmd.exe and drag it from the *bottom right corner* to make cmd full screen. (Must be full screen!).
4) on cmd type: root.bat
5) read and follow what it says
6) you're done

----------------------
Some people might get errors saying "missing .dll"
Simply copy the .dll files and place them in this 2 places in your computer
C:\windows\system
C:\window\system32

Cyanogen, nbetcher (for the rooting methods)

and me, Xologist

I'm a total noob and this way of rooting my slide was easy and worked GREAT!!!! Thank you Xologist you ROCK!!


Thanks-

One thing you may want to add: users have to cd to the directory that they extract the RootmeNOW.zip in, e.g., if you extracted it into the documents folder, you'd have to open cmd, and type

cd C:\users\usernamehere\documents\rootmenow

and then the commands. Some SUPERnoobs don't know to cd to be able to run a batch file.

Normally that would be true.. but since I put CMD.exe in that folder, cmd starts at the path of the folder

Wait.. what?? You are distributing cmd.exe?

I think that MS is not going to be cool with that....

I didn't download the file, so if I've misunderstood then you have my apologies.

What's wrong with sending cmd.exe ?
that's like me sending you a text.txt document.. everyone has it on windows either way..

xologist: I appreciate that you have been trying to consolidate information in the MT3GS forums lately and make things a bit more noob friendly, but this comment just blows my mind.

It is in no way like sending a text.txt document. Not sure how you can even make that leap .

Cmd.exe is a proprietary program written by MS and governed by the license under which you have acquired Windows. One of the chief points in that license is that you are not allowed to redistribute, in whole or in part, Windows. Cmd.exe is quite clearly a part of Windows and not allowed to be distributed.

On the other hand, if I were to create a file called Test.txt, I would presumably put some text in there. That is a file I would have created and is therefor mine to do with what I please, as I would be the creator of the work..

You really MUST remove cmd.exe from your download. Not trying to be difficult, just want the forums here to stay legal
