Yeah, the only real option at this point is to just downgrade to 2.2.1. Since this is my first post, I can't post a link yet, but there are a few tutorials floating around already. After I get my obligatory 8 posts in, I'll be back with a few links.

thanx for any suggestions

Again, you just have to downgrade back to 2.2. I think that 2.2.1 doesn't really have much to offer the Vortex anyways.
I tried super unroot something , its an app that u use. On your CPU, didn't work although it has apparently worked for others running 2.2.1 ****warning ***** never try to put your vortex in recovery mode you will lose everything as have i

Not sure what you're asking. Are you trying to downgrade from froyo to eclair? Update rooted eclair to rooted froyo?

Update to one of the rooted ROMs. I've been running Fresh 3.1.0.2 for a while now with great success. The Netarchy kernel makes it even better. Just be sure to flash the ROM first then the kernel, if you decide to run a custom kernel.

But yes I downgraded from froyo to eclair from froyo, did the root and installed forever, but it appears that now it rejects to take the ota to froyo, which is no biggie, but why would my phone be running half speed, or should I just forget it and flash.

You don't ever take anything over the air front Sprint or HTC. Download a froyo rom from here...then flash it like you flashed when you rooted the phone...then flash the radios the same way.
It sounds like you have some more reading to do.

i actually tried taking the ota then, it would downlaod, but would not install, just ended up a few times and the droid and a triangle with the exclamation point in it, did that a few times and said forget it, found a rom to flash that was done by netarchy with the HTC ota final build, and it worked perfect, so i'm happy with the outcome.

I was wondering if anyone has tried or if they know if gingerbreak works on the O3D. I have unlocked Rogers O3D and was thinking of trying it out
I'd love to know the same thing
Sent from my Motorola Atrix 4G MB860 using XDA Premium App
you mean Gingerbread? right?
i think it'll be better if we wait for official 2.3.. when it arrives the developers will cook better ROMs (i hope)..
Wait until CyanogenMod comes to the O3D, it wont work right now since there's no ROM with it for the O3D, probably would start if you compiled it yourself but that's about it, it wouldn't be functional.
Im thinking he means the root app gingerbreak. The one used to root a phone via a app installed on phone. It worked for my ATRIX when I was on froyo.

ya i was talking about the root exploit. Has anyone tried it on the O3D
I think you'll find most people used superoneclick as that works just fine for root.
Doesn't gingerbreak come under super user as an option? sure i used the gingerbreak method to root my phone. can't remember where I got the software though???
Why would someone need to root the phone twice? Superoneclick works perfectly and the procedure is very easy and fast as hell.
Whenever i tried superoneclick on my comp with my nexus it always hanged. Most likely some problem with my comp so i wanted to use gingerbreak so root straight on my phone without the computer
It's amazing we were supposed to so called have our gingerbread like 2 months ago, has anyone heard anything? Because I am trying hard not to have to root my Infuse, and I don't really have a way to root it either but it is so aggravating being on 2.2 still especially with such a great device.

Just root it and flash serendipity or infused, or dlev, or any other gingerbread rom.
It's very simple.

+1 All you need to root is a comp,usb cable and your phone, rooting is quite literally one click (superoneclick)...unless you use HDMI religiously, the roms here are awesome gingerbread goodness even if unofficial.

I have a computer but its dead basically, I tried to do the oneclickroot on my moms laptop and it didn't work at all, tried on my cousin's computer and yet another fail so I basically gave up with the root and yes I have seen a lot of beautiful roms on this forum but I can not get this thing rooted to flash a recovery or rom
Random fyi I have rooted and flashed recovery/rom on only one android device (Motorola Backflip) and I haven't been able to root another device

dude, get the drivers from the samsung site, get heimdall 1.1, get visual c++ redistrobutable package and get the comunity kernel.
extract the kernel .zip and find the zimage
install the drivers
open heimdall
put the zimage in the kernel slot
put the phone in download mode and connect to usb
hit the flash button in heimdall
pretty easy

To make things easier on yourself, you should really find a comp, google "Superoneclick Infuse" and it should pop up step by step install instructions. (download link included)
Still, with the root/flash options, I too would like the official release from AT&T...the wait is getting too long.
Question -I assume I'll need to reload apps if I flash a ROM, correct?
I'll just leave this here...

I need some advice, I am considering unrooting because I want to sell my G2x because I am not fond of it anymore. I tried to unroot now, using the unlocker website that works in tandem with this forum. I still see Super User on my phone. I watched the video, and followed every set of the directions. What is going on with my phone?
Why would you want to unroot? I mean the buyer ( if you sell it ) probably wont even know? Just delete superuser

I might be selling it off to one of those websites that buys phones because I found one that might give $180.
SuperUser still shows up as a random APK image, not like the pirate logo. It shows a generic Android icon. I can only freeze super user. The app I downloaded to show root access is present or not says my phone is not rooted. I just am stuck in the LG-P999 Stock Af rom. I don't want Froyo anymore, I prefer going to Gingerbread for the sake of selling my phone.
