That's a subjective question. If you have good reading comprehension. It's safest and easiest to do it the manual way in my opinion.
Any link's to it ... I'm new to this ...

Posting from my phone. I think it is the top post in the development forum.
Manual is the way to go its the safest and its good learning experience. It provides you with alot of tools used in android.

Taking time to read before hand, and doing the manual method is safest.

pretty much for right now its not that hard just read carefully
Anyone knows if tbolt is going to get true one click root app?

no it's not going to
I've tried the auto root 3 times and it never worked for me, manually is better in my opinion make sure you check your md5 sums I almost ****ed myself by not doing that before hand. Good luck!
Both methods are fine. However, I strongly recommend the manual method. The problem with auto rooters and one-click rooters is now everyone will use it and more people will end up with bricks on there hands if they are not careful. The manual method is reserved for people who took the time to learn and are less likely to make a mistake.
The manual method is easy, and by far the safest. You get to control each step, and you know EXACTLY what you have done in the event that something does go wrong. I have rooted two TBs, a co-worker rooted his GF's TB by himself (he has never rooted before) using the manual method and everything was fine.
Both methods are not fine. The one click/auto root cause problems. How do I know? Because users come to our chat daily asking for help, or even trying to demand we fix their phones when the auto rooters leave them on 1.03.605.x or set off the security warning. At that point, we don't know where the auto rooter left you hanging, and the user doesn't know how to setup/use adb either.
Use the manual method.
I'm gonna have to agree with jcase.sure some people used the auto method and it worked fine but do you really want to take the risk and have a $600 paper weight? Either way you have to read and follow directions, take the extra time to learn about the process of rooting tbolt its not very hard and in the end you will be glad you did it manually.

Best to manual root. Many links and YouTube videos that help

i am HIGHLY against autoroot. I'm 100% positive manual root is better.
funny thing is my roommate who is an ICS major has been failing at autorooting his Atrix. I'm sure he tried more than 30 times by now. He tried a factory reset and even a flash. No go. I bet a manual root will solve his problem.
Don't be lazy. Are you really willing to risk your bolt on a process you cant see and have zero control of?I know I'm not. I've rooted 3 bolts using jcase/teamandirc's method and worked everytime.

Hi I'm new here so i apologize if I have posted this in the wrong spot or if there is already a post about this (i checked and couldnt find one) Anyways, i'm having an issue with my SGS4G that drives me INSANE. It happens often. I will be texting or browsing the internet or something and the green arrow pointing up on the 4G symbol freezes. Once that happens im not able to do anything: send texts, load anything, use internet (pretty much anything consisting of data). I actually experienced the problem trying to load up XDA. Any help would be greatly appreciated guys. Thanks.

This is exactly the right forum for this sort of question--just fyi. I've never had that happen though hopefully someone here can help you out. My guess is something running or updating in the background.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium App
Oh thanks i just make sure cuz ive been on forums where people FLIP if u accidently post in the wrong spot. But yeah i hope someone knows why or at least how to stop it. Only way to fix it id to restart my mobile network.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
i encounter that problem a number of times on the 4g connection. using edge never experiences the problem and i can also remedy if i switch networks.
Are you using Mobile AP by any chance when it happens? I've had my data freeze completely after a good amount of use via Mobile AP. Other than that I haven't noticed any issues.
Whats Mobile AP?

G2x
Modded gingerbread theme
Whitehawks kd1 deodexed with modded green dialer,modded pull down menu (favorite color is green and favorite football team greenbay packers)
Read up on the g2x lately. It is having lots of issues for lots of people. Tmo even pulled it off their website due to problems with alot of those phones. Random reboots, screen issues like light bleeds and discoloring, and other issues. Some are happy with the device with few of these issues others have had multiple exchanges and still report problems.
They say the gingerbread update will fix some of these when it comes out. I doubt it will fix the screen issues tho. That just sounds like an LG hardware defect. Bottom line do some reading before jumping on the LG g2x bandwagon.

After the issues with this phone i dont even wanna consider the G2X anymore lol. Thank you SO much for the heads up. My brother and my sister have the sidekick 4g and they love it. Has anybody heard anything about that one?

Why do all my mms pictures that people send me have a big play button over it? Is there a way to remove this? I've been in a jailbroken iPhone for a long time and this is my first android any help would be greatly appreciated

Come on man I realize that. I was just hoping there was a way to remove the play button from a picture. I could understand it being there on a video but not a pic.

This problem plagues tons of android 2.2.x devices...captivate and atrix included. They located the problem and patched it in CM7 for SGS. When we get it ported, the problem will go away.

Does anyone have problems receiving MMS pictures from iPhone users?? I tend to get a long message saying "one or more of the message components have been deleted by MMS Adaptation. Either the message was too large or the components were unsuitable for your terminal."
I used to get a similar message on the Atrix. Why the hell does this happen??
Not an Android issue, it's AT&T wanting to give you a "multimedia experience" which annoys the hell out of me. Once the ROMs come out, it'll be gone. It was the same with the HTC Aria, Samsung Captivate, and HTC Inspire 4G... With my last phone, Inspire 4G, any rom applied broke the play-button thing, so photos just showed up like on normal phones.
Why must AT&T try to get their hands all over everything? It's so annoying.
First thing I did when I got my phone was delete the stock samsung mms app and replace it with the stock aosp mms app
I use SUFBS but root explorer does the same....

Was just reading about this on Engadget. After the headache it took to get the leak for the last market working properly. Ill wait for the official release.
Honestly its clean and I haven't seen any problems. It isn't like roms. I installed it. I really like it lol

I loaded this up then just went in and deleted data on the market app and this is running great!
Then I screwed up and got excited about the google movies and download the new google video's. Rented Battle LA and started to play. then BAM... "cant access this video with a rooted device"... What a bunch of horse ****!!!.. I really hope someone figures a way around this.
THe DRM coding is what keeps it from running. not even sure how you would go about tricking it into thinking you have DRM

Well, I'm a newb when it comes to most of that. I just hope one of the many great dev's can tear into the .apk and figure out a way to mask the app from see that the device has root access.
I have no desire to steal or pirate movies. Just wanna watch an occasional movie on my tweaked phone yeah know.
They should be happy we arnet pirating the movies. Who cares if we root if we are paying

How do you accept an update now? The only option is to open or uninstall...

Had the same issue. Just went in to app manager and cleared data on the market app and rebooted the phone for good measure. Once the phone booted up I acceptef the market t&c and went back to my apps. Still could update so I just left it alone. A few minutes later I noticed the app updates available icon in the notification area and clicked on it. Once I selected the app that need to be updated it gave me the opotion to update, instead of open, or uninstall.
Dunno if I like the ui...kinda hard to navigate and find stuff.
It sure is a major change, almost wp7ish.
Guess I will get used to it.
i just received the system update notification on my rooted stock ROM & was wondering would downloading it remove my root
Short answer - Don't do it. If you are rooted, trying to receive an actual update from HTC or T-Mobile is bad news and could break your phone.
Longer answer:
It's possible to do it, but you would have to do something particular to be able to do it.
Once you root your phone, you forego any future manufacturer updates. Bad news.
There are several threads on this around here, I suggest you read up on them for more information.
Get titanium backup.
Type in filters update.
Freeze updater x x x
Never worry about an update again. You can always defrost if you want too as well.

Don't be a tard. Thanks.
