Noob rooting question - Verizon Droid Charge

I'm fairly new to rooting and I have the basic idea down. My only quesiton is once I flash a kernal that has CWM and root and then install a rom with CWM (assuming I got that part right) if I decide I want to go back completely stock is all I have to do flash a stock version of this phone through odin? Thanks in advance

You got it. Wish it was harder but its' that easy. You can find the stock unrooted version in the dev forum. Happy rooting.

Thanks!

No flame but LOL @ this...
@bigdog736
Your post tells me nothing about whether or not you are rooted already.
Just in case you aren't, you need root access, and CWM installed.
I'll provide you with the links.
You'll need this tool to flash the root to your phone. It's called Odin.
Download here:
Odin Flashing Utility
Now download this ROM and flash it using Odin. It will root your device:
ED01 Stock Rooted
Now, download the CWM and flash it using Odin. This is the custom recovery:
CWM
Now, with root access, and CWM installed, you should not have any problems installing a new custom ROM.
You want GummyCharged 2.0? Well just to insure that you downloaded it from the right source, I will provide a link for that too:
GummyCharged 2.0
Again, if you are already rooted and have CWM installed, sorry for wasting your reading time. Your post just didn't give me ANY information, so I just assume that you aren't rooted.

How to root v21y

Same method as 2.3.3?
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA
Just flash Kwes's rooted rom through CWM.
CWM with NVflash hasn't changed.
Easiest method I found - http://www.unlockroot.com/
Works great on stock!
Yea but don't I need to be rooted to flash cwm?

No. You aren't rooting to get cwm, you get cwm to root.
No you do not have to be rooted to flash cwm you just have to download nvFlash and follow the instructions in the post you will find a whole thread about it in the development section by
So I can flash cwm then a custom rom and kernel without ever rooting?
That makes no sense.

Nvidia based devices are a little different. The APX mode let's you flash a recovery, so you can then load whatever ROM you want, rooted or not.

Silly rooting question.

So I'm wondering if there is an easy way to root from the phone? Or any way for that matter. I'm on a cappy with stock 2.3.5 and wow it sucks. Its my wife's phone as I soft bricked my phone trying to flash helly bean over firefly 3.0. I'm guessing I didn't have the gb bootloaders. Though with this phone I do have them and should be able to easily flash helly bean with no problems once its rooted and I flash the proper kernal.

I always go to 4-2ndtwin's helpful links in his signature and use either Odin or Heimdall to install a kernel that will allow you to flash roms. Then you can just boot into recovery and flash.
I think there is a mobile odin on the market.
Ill look for mobile Odin.

Odin requires root. Is there a way to root from the phone?

No, you dont need root to use odin. Make sure you read up and find instructions. Flash a kernel with root and apply via CWM and there you go.

Mobile Odin does require Root.
And nope, no way to Root just from phone.
But there is no need to get Root if u r just gonna flash a Rom anyway. U will however need to use Odin or Heimdall to flash a kernel with the CWM Recovery baked in. (i recommend KK4 Corn Kernel v7.0A ). Once u have flashed that kernel, just use button combo to reboot into cwm and then install ur Rom of choice that u should have already copied on ur phone. Success :thumbup:

[Q] [Kies]New Firmeware Available?

Hey guys. I have a rooted Galaxy S blaze and i am running on the stock t-moible rom. I didnt install clockmod recovery or anything like that, I installed Kies on my laptop and i saw it said new firmware was available. Can i install this or do i need to be unrooted??
U can but you'll lose root. But I'd Odin back to unrooted stock just to be safe

Thanks for the quick reply man.
Yea i do not want to unroot. I rooted it to get rid of the bloatware. Is there a root for the update? Im guessing its ICS so is there a ICS root?
Look through dev section
It's pretty easy to root ics

Someone correct me if im wrong, but in order to root this phone you need to flash an already rooted ROM, you must use the nvflash link that was provided for you no matter what, and then once CWM is flashed, flash a ROM.
Hope this helped!

Ding ding we have a winner. Nvflash cwm recovery then install rom. All the roms you will find here unless it specifically says for warranty purpose are rooted. Super one click hasn't worked since froyo

I rooted stock 2.3.4. IMHO what is the point of super one click if you have to flash a rooted Rom to gain root (you don't)

ill try using super one click again. if it dosent work i guess ill have to try to nv flash it again
Super one click doesn't put cwm recovery on the phone if you want rooted stock kwes has one pre made flash through cwm easy as pie guys. I dont understand why you would want your phone rooted with no recovery installed. Just makes it harder to fix if you mess up
