[APP] One Click Root for NS4G!

My backup root will take care of this easily

Am I correct in assuming that this app does not require root? A backup program that requires root might not be too useful for backing up files that will get wiped in the rooting process.

Has anyone tried to use this script on a Mac with Parallels or VM Fusion?

ok, I tried this again tonight. I downloaded the file in the first link, re-installed the pda-net drivers, when I got to the point where it reboot my phone, (i'm assuming into recovery) without pressing any buttons it would continue and then came up with a msg that adb.exe is not a recognized internal or external command. Did I do something wrong or did I download the wrong file?
Thanks

[shabbypenguin]

im glad everyone is enjoying it, thanks for all the support. i have plans to improve it just been busy helping the samsung prevail guys (boost) with root and getting some nice tasty roms

Is the recovery supposed to stick? I got into recovery initially but now when i go into recovery i get a little triangle with an exclamation point and a little android.

What went wrong?

 

[shabbypenguin]

sorry it should have stuck ill look into it over the next few days, should have rooted you even still.. can use rom manager to make it stick

 

[unomedmen1]

oh yes it did root me and im all good on that but I honestly don't know how to make it stick thru rom manager. Any advice? Sorry guys I come from a fully rooted and customized moment and phone is so easy to customize.

thanks

Download from rom manager and they also can flash it for you. Or you can do it the long way and set up adb and fastboot flash recovery ********.img lol

I think I figured it out lol. I;m able to go into recovery now and no bootloop so I think I'm good. I appreciate all the advice and guys, thanks

I just realized that I no longer have the "old school tv" effect when I lock my phone. All I did not install any ROM or anything like that, just unlocked and recovery. Is anyone else experiencing the same? I really liked that effect too.

There seem to be a lot of reports of recovery not working. The problem might be cwm3101. From what I've read, 3024 is the latest stable version for the ns4g.

oh sweet! that did it. thanks bro

Yeah I thought my recovery was sticking but I just attempted to go into recovery and I'm getting the triangle with the !

To get the recovery to stick, rename /etc/install-recovery.sh to install-recovery.sh.bak. Then reflash the recovery using fastboot or ROM Manager. The stock rom uses this file to restore the stock recovery when you boot normally. (Personally, I kind of like this option. My old LG Axis still has a broken recovery, with no way to fix it. If I'm right, it also makes it stupidly simple to unroot & restore to stock.)

You know what, you make a good point. I will leave as is. All I wanted root for is to block and get rid of those darn ads all over the apps.

thanks

This script, no. Other things, yes. It didn't work out very well for me when I tried. I don't know why it was happening or not happening but if I had to guess, it would be that the process of unlocking and rooting and adb was making the phone connect and disconnect to many times in a short amount of time. I found that just making a partition on my drive and installing xp and not letting it get out on the net. I never had problems with any phones doing it that way.
