Before anyone gives me an attitude: I used search and spent 3 days searching for an answer before turning here. With that said...
I have a mac and ONLY a mac. I do NOT have access to a pc. I have tried rooting my SGS4G using superoneclick running through wine and mono. Wine won't run it at all and mono just closes the app window anytime a button is pressed. I know that some might recommend using parallels or virtual box, but I don't have a windows install disc and refuse to download an illegal one right now. I would like to know if ANYONE has has success rooting their phone through their mac without using parallels. Has anyone found an apk that works?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
P.S.
I am not looking to flash any roms. I just want to run stock rooted to remove bloatware.
Maybe run it through terminal. I also have a Mac, But just used a friends windows device to root it.

Thanks for the response. I don't know of a way to do it through terminal except for mono which doesn't work. Almost every way I've seen to do it requires a windows program with .net. Like I said I don't have ANY access to a pc so I might just be screwed on this. I was hoping that maybe someone had a hint though.

Hi guys,
I've flashed my phone with the .405 euro firmware however seem to have lost remote desktop, does anyone know where this will be or how I can find the cab and reinstall it?
Many thanks.
You have this one:-

or

but i haven't tried either yet.
Let me know how you get on plz
ta m8,
The real windows remote desktop is definitely best because windows will scale all your windows and is really responsive, however you may have concurrent login issues if you try to use your pc at the same time!
The other is more like VNC where you view an existing login, however that then begs the question why not use a mobile VNC program as it's well established and more supported. I'd say the good thing about omnipresence is it attempts to use touchflow navigation concepts but at the moment the response is slow, could be good in the future though.

That might explain, that when I try and remote onto my PC it tells me the UN or PW is incorrect. (I know it isn't).. Is this because I'm logged in?
It should log you out on your pc when you try to connect i think

How did you have to hack Vista plz.. I'm also using that OS, so might be the same problem?
I'm useing RDM+ instead from Shape service.
Much simpler and no need to configure and firewalls.. downside is that it aint free. But then again it's a one time fee, all other upgrades are free.
lots of functions too like file upload and download. And the person that is online dosen't get log out.
Imo it's a really good application.
Again either using RDT or Logmein.com , It says user name or password incorrect.
I know its not, coz thats what I use to log into the system!!!
Any ideas, this is a real puzzler1

I am trying to download some apps to my Fuze. There are a lot of them that call for the NET compact 3.5. I downloaded the NET. c directly onto my phone but when I went to open and install it said that this is not a program for windows mobile. I'm new to this and would appreciate any help. What do I need to do? I tried installing the NET. c on to my computer but it didn't do anything either. Thank you for your help.

Is it possible that these are installers you're supposed to run from your computer and they finish their install over an activesync connection?
It might help if you let us know which apps you're trying to install and where you got them from (non-pirated of course).
You need the rigth cab http://www.4shared.com/file/70602905/58d46ffa/NETCFv35wmarmv4i.html
Thank you for replying. I tried to do searches but I kept timing out on the xda website (dial-up only in my area), so I looked on the net. All I could find was a download from microsoft. For some reason I am also having trouble with my active sync. The disk that came with my phone says it needs the new adobe flash player which I have but it won't read, it's having problems with vista. So because of these problems I need to download directly to my phone I guess. The download NET c from microsoft was the one that said it wasn't for windows mobile.
I am just trying to load some different apps to my Fuze for more usablility, games like scobble, a ram cleaner things like that. Nothing pirated for sure, but most I find if not all need the new NET to work.
Any help or ideas would be much appreciated, thanks again.
Thanks araponga I will give that a try.
I am extremely frustrated and need help.
After much trouble, to the best of my knowledge unrooted and relocked my device via oneclick to receive the OTA. I got the OTA and it installed no problem.
Now today I pay to rent a movie Google takes my money no problem I start to download Inception and I get a big 'banana you!' error 49.
What would cause this?
I started to look into it and I find out that this error is for folks with rooted devices. So immediately I get root checker from market and confirmed that I am not rooted.
Now I have been reading around and don't really see anything that would help me resolve the issue. I have adb set up and can manage to copy and paste commands pretty good but when I try to use fastboot commands nothing happens.
Given that this forum is visited by users of all ages, I have removed your profanity. That said, I hope someone has the solution for your media woes.
I can't help with the error but can tell you that your not missing much with inception.

Teamviewer.
You need WIFI for these and the client must be installed on your computer.
Also you can take a look at these:
