Ok so I've been reading and you can backup, flash the gingy, then if you want to go back you can SBF or use a specific zip update that will take you back to stock .340. From there you can root it, install the bootstrapper, and restore your backup.

So I might try it rofl.

[JayBo]

can Tbolt be rooted?

[stonehenge]

si wey

[MikeH]

can Tbolt be rooted?
Yup but its not as simple as other root methods out there.

[SarkOzy]

Told you that Friday night Jayson. Lol. Its not HARD, just involved

FIDIL imo

---------- Post added at 09:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:23 AM ----------

I could live without ad-free and root explorer and whatnot, the only thing I'd want root for right away would be removing all of that bloatz :emo:

[MikeH]

Don't you flash in clockwork? Remove the bloat before flashing IMO.

[stonehenge]

:hmm: you haz a point mr.H you be wise beyond dem yearz

unless shit doesn't boot up because it is missing some stuff, like blur likes to do sometimes

[SarkOzy]

I think that's the first stock Moto UI I could actually live with. :rofl2:

Kinda hard for them to fuck up GB too much. *knock on wood*

Now you can haz GB goodness too wan :pepperjest:

[stonehenge]

:sneaky: maybe

still not sure :roflmao:

[MikeH]

It still looks ugly lol. Is the bar and stuff blue? Dunno wtf they were thinking on that one.

[stonehenge]

it's a dark blue, i honestly like it from what I've seen, who knows once i use it tho

it is a fuckton better than the white also

[SarkOzy]

It's blue with a green battery indicator.........:roflsquared:

[stonehenge]

:hgh:

[SarkOzy]

I'd at least try it. :roflshrug:

As :pepperjest: as I've been with CM7 on teh ERIS(nexus s GB) you'd probably like it on teh DX.

Oh I thought you told me it was impossible!

[race2c]

If you can figure out a way to load your backup, if something went wrong or do not like it, then you should at least try it.

[stonehenge]

rofl i already know how to load a backup, i'm just rly lazy so i'm debating if i even want to deal with it if i might not want to keep it

[SarkOzy]

Oh I thought you told me it was impossible!

No rofl. :rofl2: I seem to recall you saying :fuckthisshit: when I explained it :crazy: When are you getting it?! Iz forgotten


Oh, and RC3 of CM7 is out. Gonna flash me ERIS. BRB

[stonehenge]

plz stfu w/ your CM7

kthx

:hgh:




:gorillastare:

[SarkOzy]

FAWK. Bootlooping POS. Supposedly you could just do a data/wipe instead of a data+dalvik/wipe and upgrade. Bleh. Gotta do a complete wipe all over again :emo:

[stonehenge]

I'd have to wipe to try le GB. And can't even do titanium restore afterwards since GB no haz roots. :blah:

[SarkOzy]

I don't bother to back up any of my shit. I have an emergency nandroid just incase. FIDIL on everything else.

---------- Post added at 02:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:21 PM ----------

Finally booting back up. Uber fresh install of CM7 this time. :happy:

[stonehenge]

:jester:

[SarkOzy]

LOTS of bug fixes in this release. Also LP was updated. I guess it's not all bad. Probably a good thing to completely wipe it once in awhile anyway.

Oh, and the eris is officially CM-supported now. :roflsquared: who would have though that would ever happen

[JayBo]

No rofl. :rofl2: I seem to recall you saying :fuckthisshit: when I explained it :crazy: When are you getting it?! Iz forgotten


Oh, and RC3 of CM7 is out. Gonna flash me ERIS. BRB

It will be here tomorrow.
Oh I remember now ! I said FTS, it'll stay stock!

[stonehenge]

Chriz, you could always remove LP and install it from the market so it will update on its own...

---------- Post added at 11:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:35 AM ----------

rofl some parts of this made me jest:

Most of this comes from my guide on installing Liberty, adapted for the GB leak. I've modified it to be a little more insulting as well. If you're reading this you probably need it. Maybe someone who isn't so sad at looking at these comments will make it nice again.

z4root - [APP] z4root - xda-developers (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953)
Droid X Recovery Bootstrap - https://market.android.com/details?i...oidx.bootstrap (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.koushikdutta.droidx.bootstrap)
TeamBlackHat Download Manager - https://market.android.com/details?i...hat.leakloader (https://market.android.com/details?id=org.teamblackhat.leakloader)

Have the leak?
Do you already have the leak? Skip ahead to the next section.

If you don't have the leak, do the TBH guys a mitzvah and buy their app. Then download the Full Gingerbread (2.3.3) SBF file (update.zip format) (DROIDX). Seriously do yourself a favor for when you screw this up: also get RSDLite and the Froyo 2.2.1 SBF file.

If you aren't stupid, buy the TBH app and download the file from the first link in this thread. And check the goddamn MD5 hash. If you get the file this way and it is incomplete/corrupt it is your own goddamn fault.

Rooted?
Do you already have root? Skip ahead to the next section.

First you'll need to go into your phone Settings, Application Settings. Check off "Unknown sources" and then go into the Development section and enable "USB Debugging". Download z4root to your phone and install. Head into the application and choose permanent root. If it takes more than a few minutes, reboot your phone and try again. I've never had it take more than a minute, but it can take a few. Once it's done rooting it will reboot your phone. Tada! You're rooted.

Bootstrapped?
Are you already bootstrapped? Read this anyway, part of it still applies to actually getting into CWM.

Next up we're installing Droid X Bootstrap. Since you're dumb you know the only place you can get it is from the market. Since the Droid X has a locked down bootloader we need Bootstrap to get into custom recovery. Once Bootstrap is installed, go into it. Choose Bootstrap Recovery, it'll give you a success prompt when it's done. If you didn't you're stupid and didn't root correctly. Just give up now. Then click reboot recovery. You're about to be in Clockworkmod Recovery (CWM)! While you're in here, you use the volume up/down keys to navigate, the camera button to select (full press!) and the back button to go back up.

Once you're in CWM first things first is to make a backup. I like to wipe the cache partition before a backup because it's a waste of backup space. Up to you. Go down to "backup and restore", select it and finally make a backup. This is your easy way out should you not like where you're going.

Once you back everything up it's time to stop and think. No, really. That soft, squishy thing inside your skull is really being put to the task here. Are you really sure you want to do this? Ok then. Go back to the top menu of CWM and choose wipe data/factory reset!

Install the leak already
Did you have second thoughts? Go restore the backup I told you to make. You didn't make a backup? I hate you.

You really want to try out Gingerbread? Let's do it then! Choose "install zip from sdcard" and then "choose zip from sdcard". It'll give you a view of your SD card. Go choose the Gingerbread file you downloaded. If you were a good little boy and used the TBH app it'll be in a folder on your SD card called It'll take a little while to install and then you're set! Reboot and you're off to enjoy some Gingerbread goodness.

Did you get an error? This one might not actually be your fault provided you used the TBH app. Go check the file size of the zip file. RootExplorer tells me the file is 172.91MB. If yours is that size, plug the phone into the computer and check the MD5 hash given in the first post. If they don't match, download again.

Sync icon keeps spinning?
You goddamn moron, you skipped the data wipe didn't you? Die in a fire.

Everything is running great?
I love you, you're a good Android lover. Spread happiness and love in this world by helping others. <3

Especially the last two little sections :rofl2:

Even if you could have a real recovery and no source roms kinda like the fascinate it would be better. At least you wouldnt have to worry about bootstrap and shit.

Yeah, source/vanilla/cm would be nice but if we at least had a legit recovery I wouldn't have to bootstrap, sbf all the damn time, etc. I think I had to sbf my D1 ONCE lol, I've sbf'd this poor bastard more times than I can count. :emo:

GB be running smooth so far and I know some don't like it but I find the new blur fairly seks. No idea on battery life because so far I have had it on the whole time downloading apps, setting things up, syncing shit, etc. Wouldn't be fair to judge it.

I got it mostly set up now. Just need to remove a little bloat and I think I'll be set until a decent rom comes out.

I really like this case, didn't think I was going to but it's nice. If you aren't hard on phones you can just buy a cheap tpu case. I heard they didn't use gorilla glass so I sprung the extra money for a better case any protector.

Are only the new LTE phones going to be SIM-card based, or does that go for all the new VZW phones? Will there still be OTA updates with CDMA going away?

The new LTE-phones have a SIM card, not sure about the older CDMA devices requiring one.

Our policy for replacement is that we must receive the original package first in order to dispatch the replacement. However, this time only, we will replace your protector. Please let us know if you have more questions. Thanks.

want Fascinate:emo:

Me too...... oh wait. :cheeky:


I can honestly say it feels awesome to finally not want another phone. I love this thing, updates or not.

[stonehenge]

the shitty part is, I only want a different phone because of the bootloader shit. I love the build quality, the speed, the screen, the battery, etc, etc. The fucking locked bootloader is the ONLY thing that pisses me off.

[race2c]

Thats the thing Juan...I want a new phone too, but the biggest criteria for me when it comes to a new device are:

battery life through a day or so
unlocked bootloader to play with the kernels to set low when on sleep or screen off

[MikeH]

Doubt you will see both in the same phone anytime soon.

If he wants to be done with TMo completely then you'll have to have them move the account to your name after he cancels his line.

Jay to get more juice out of your battery, unplug once its charged, reboot and plug back in. Apparently having to bump charge made its way to the Thunderbolt too.

I could have sworn my upgrade date was in June and now its saying 4/9/2011 :think:

My contract is up in August, is that typical?

[race2c]

Mike - does this seem legit or a guy talking out of his ass?

"My thunderbolt last 12+ hours for me. I did do some battery traing the first 3 days. I Charged it all the way and then let it die, wait for the battery to cool 1-2 hours and then charge it. This happened overnight so I had no issues. I live in 3g only and my battery is on par with my og droid and droid 2. My use is typically, 3 to 4 hours of podcasts while I work. 2 hours of music while at the gym. Less than 1 hour of talk time, and then texting"

[SarkOzy]

Talking out of his ass :IMO.

Use rom manager to boot into recovery or hold down the power button and see if it gives you the option of turn your phone and hold volume down and power or something along those lines

[Cez★]

did the power+volume thing.

rofl yeah sometimes I turn it on/off a few times just to see the OG CRT shut off animation.


mike, P3s article made me sad and a little scared :jester: oh well :shrug:

[MikeH]

It might be a good thing, maybe all carriers will get the Nexus.

[Cez★]

fts :cheeky:

[stonehenge]

Yeah I'm kinda to the point where I think it would be best to get a vanilla device next even if it isn't the most beast available. I just hope VZW gets one. Whether its a Nexus device or something that is unlockable like the Sony or Xoom or something.

[stonehenge]

I installed Go SMS Pro (free) and the Emojii plugin on my phone and on wifes phone. You can send BAMF smilies in texts. Not like a pic msg, you can put them in normal SMS. There are a shitload of them too, smilie faces, animals, arrows, etc. Kinda jesty.

you fgts should install so can send pics of santa and ghosts and french fries and shet

[Cez★]

Will do later.

Think new rom and shit be more battery efficient. Used pretty good all day with pandora for a few hours and still haz like 40% or more

New CM7 build is out. :hmm:

[SarkOzy]

pinche ERIS has been unplugged since 5:20am and is still at 98% battery with some twitter, zexting and photo taking action. :whoa: I wiped the cache and flashed over the new release of CM7 last night before I went to bed. Mainly just full of bugfixes by the changelog.

[stonehenge]

Very nice IMO

PicSay Pro is free in Amazon AppStore.

I just used it to shop out a shadow that was on a CV pic lol it actually turned out decent immfo.

[SarkOzy]

Did you keep yours stock when you had the eris for awhile wan? It's unbelievable how much different it is rooted and running CM7. Not even the same phone :imo

[.GARY.]

Put Stenheil cover on phone. I'm meh right now about it. One spot will not seal on it and I cant figure out why.

D/l GoSMS and going to give that a go, want something different and I kinda like the app when I had it on my BB.

[stonehenge]

lol no Chriz, my wife had it stock for a while when it was hers but after playing with it a while I said FTS @ Sense and rooted/rom'd it. At the time there was a primitive 2.1 and some more evolved 2.0 roms. Eventually I got a decent 2.1 on there but mms had issues.

MMS issues > slow shit

:jester:

[SarkOzy]

7 hours off the charger. 3G on the entire time. Moar zexting and twitter/tapatalk/memegenerator here on lunch.

Battery is still at 91%

:horyshet:


CM7 has given teh ERIS infinite battery :roflmao: :crazy:

Srs though, normally I'd be down to 70-something % by now, if not lower with more use. I'm amazed.

[stonehenge]

not sure if believe battery is reporting correctly :wtf:

The new ones supposedly arent going to have a wolfson or whatever the fuck comes in the current line chip so not worth it, at all.

[race2c]

what the hell...the design of it is the main thing...if i can't get over the design of it than i will probably not enjoy the phone...

[MikeH]

that one will stay overseas more than likely and they will bring in different ones to the states. the i9000 looks similar to that but all the others look different.

[race2c]

the i9000 coming to the states? or the i9000 = IIS?

I bought the TB 2 weeks ago, was tired of battery dying before the day was up so I bought the Seido 1600mAh battery. It's better than the stock 1400mAh and gets me anywhere from 18-36 hours instead of the 10-12 I was getting with stock.

About to start the root process sometime this weekend/next week, any foreseen problems with battery usage after root Mike?
