Rooting Tb after 07/08 OTA!! - Thunderbolt General

I tried to root my Thunderbolt yesturday (I installed the 07/08 OTA from verizon when it became available on 07/08). I have followed the steps to the T, and have been unable to root my phone.
Is anyone else having this problem?
I used the following guide: [RS Guide] How to Root Your Thunderbolt
Here are a few things I noticed:
Wen I type "adb devices" I get the following message:
adb server is out of date. Killing...
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
HT12GS001525 device
Is this a normal message?
Second, One I go through all the copy & paste into the cmd window, my TB goes through all the checking of the PG05IMG.zip, and I get error messages about no img found and whatnot... I never get the message "Do you want to start update?" I have to hit reboot from the bootloader, and then my TB reboots and I get no changes to my phone.
Any help would be appreciated.

You need to make sure that on your SD Card, the PG05IMG file does not have ".zip" at the end of the name. If it does, your phone reads it as "PG05IMG.zip.zip"
Take the .zip off the name and it should work.
The message from ADB that you got is normal and means that your phone is being read correctly and communicating with your computer.

Also, you use the volume up button (not the power button) to confirm the radio update.

Make sure HTC Sync is not running on your computer in the back ground

Update?
Were you successful in rooting the phone?
I am a new TB user and the update just went through..
If it worked which rooting method did you use?
Thank you!

Just use thunderbolt auto-root!! Worked for me today on new thunderbolt. Had a thunderbolt traded for Droid charge then gave the Droid charge away and paid full price for new thunderbolt

Literally went from here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQYoeFrJ1Jk while drinking vodka!

So I would do some research and make sure this works with the new ota but I have used it on several TB's (original radio) and it works great.

Edit: Got it sorted out.

I am in San Diego and am getting the update now. The update appears to be OTA v. 1.70.605.0
If you do not want to update to this OTA version all you need to do is interrupt the update and do a refresh check update, once it prompt you to update you will have the option to reject or defer.
I am going to see how this OTA plays out and will consider rooting in the coming days.

Link please?

Rooting
I tried the one click rooting and got left hanging with no sound on 4 occasions - I could never get it to work after the rage installation phase. I had s-off , but couldn't get root. Since I now was getting desperate, I used the hack kit and followed the unzipped instructions in the extracted folder. I had to get and load adb on my ubuntu pc to install Visionary on my inspire after that it was easy. I loaded Revolution rom and am happy with it. I'm a complete noob and have had my inspire only 3 weeks and have no other android experience. If I can do it, so can you.

I've had two inspires already and used both methods (one on each phone). They have both worked for me. You have to root in order to have custom roms. Have you followed the instructions to a T? What are you getting stuck on?

Thanks for the quick replies guys! The inspire is my mom's and shes been having problems with it regarding the sd card unmounting by itself, getting stuck in landscape mode and etc... and i myself own the atrix and so im not that familiar with the inspire
The part where i get stuck at is when i put in the command "hackerize-ace install-downgrade" after i put in those commands and press enter, it says not installed, what am i doing wrong?
Edit: when i try the one click method, the part where i get stuck is at hboot, it doesnt seem to find any images it constantly say "no image, wrong image"
anyone know how to fix this?

Make sure that you have the HTC drivers installed correctly. If you don't your computer cannot communicate with your device to push the downgrade rom to your phone. It doesn't matter which method you are using if the drivers are not installed correctly they both will not function correctly.

You probably dont have drivers installed. They are included with samsungs media companion- kies. Search "kies" on google. Shouldnt be hard to find.

Hahaa nice i was same place as you where... I had Fuze and then Touch pro2 running energy roms... Well man you could try an older version of super obe click but.. The new one never gave me trouble.
And if as you say, you want to root to possibly flash a GB ron later the possibukity of Odin flashing a pre rooted Rom its still a good choice if super one click keeps giving you trouble, it will basicly leave your stuff like pics music etc intact and flash a rom with root included ill add you a few thread links when i get to my pc.

Thanks for the links koriotto. I went with an earlier 1.9x superoneclick for now, but I will get thos links bookmarked!
I do have a question tho. Your links are for ultimate unbrick, right? So basically that is a staock rom for users to flash back to if they go too far down the rabbit hole?
- Thanks, Kevin
It works fine if you don't use zergrush as the exploit.
Zergrush kept hanging for me with latest superoneclick version.
Switched exploit to psneuter and it worked fine

[Q] How to root TB on version 1.13.605.7?

Sorry if this is in the wrong section but I updated my phone to the latest OTA fw that was just released by VZ, Software version says 1.13.605.7 and kernel is 2.6.32.21-gb05544a [email protected] #1 (whatever that is)
Andriod version is at 2.2.1 and I would love to be able to root my phone and install one of the gingerbread ROMs but have not seen any ways to do this...... please advise. Thanks!
Search here or Google it. Instructions everywhere. One piece of advice: stay away from the "one click" method. The best way isn't as easy if you are new, but read up and you'll learn.

Yea I've been searching and all I've found is for the previous software version, not the new OTA version....
I used to have a droid inc and it was super easy to root... without the need for ADB. It just seems like a PITA to setup ADB and risk bricking the phone... and I'm on win7 x64 to further complicate things. I'm not new to this but I just want to find a simple way to load a different ROM on my phone to get rid of the bloatware and to help save battery life.
Using adb is actually quite easy. And the whole process is less than an hour. I know its usually Google but this time youtube is your friend. Just look up how to set up adb and then you are just some copy and pastes away from a rooted thunderbolt.
As far as trying to root the new version, just backup and downgrade since the process wipes data anyway.

I'm on x64 win7 too. Just download HTC sync, install the drivers with it and quit the install before you install the app (drivers install first, then you are prompted to install sync). No easy button with this phone IMO, but if you take the time, its worth it. No risk on bricking it if you've done it before. Just cut and paste the commands and go slow. No unrevoked for this baby yet.

Well the phone never showed up in the device list in the GUI - it would only show up in the command line... I had to install the correct USB driver and rebooted several times... And be sure the phone is in charge only mode instead of disk drive mode... and make sure there are no devices that dont have the drivers installed in device manager.. After all that, i was able to follow the step by step guide linked above. Which took a while and there are many steps so be careful! when you do the "dd" command thats where you can really brick your phone. Good luck!
What problem are you having exactly?
before you did the OTA where you already rooted?
did you end up getting it rooted?
- i found this thread a little bit ago its for rooted
users only and they have already rooted,deodexed

(SOLVED)[Q] how to tell if phone is already rooted.....

So I just picked up a skyrocket and I went to update OTA and it downloaded the update and when it went to restart to install the update the phone booted into clockwork. I wasnt able to find a thread for this specific device about it so I am asking here now. MOD if there is one please point me in the right direction. I did notice that there is no att bloatware on the device. Thanks.
Terminal editor, type su, press enter, see what happens.
Other clues: presence of Superuser app.
You have a custom recovery also which will need to be ODINed away.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
Yes, it does have superuser. As far as Terminal editor/ODINed i'll be honest I have no idea what you are talking about. First sammy device that I have had long enough to keep and want to keep. Use to HTC branded devices. But thank you I think it is rooted because of the superuser app.
Questions should be posted in Q&A. Moved.
Side note: I recommend you read a lot before you mess with it. Although this device seems to be very difficult to hardbrick misusing ODIN can lead to one.
Cheers
Go to market download root checker. Run it. If a super user prompt appears, that's a good sign.

Yes it does, superuser prompt comes up. I really would just rather have this back to completly stock running 2.3.6 until the 4.0 update rolls out. Not sure which is better. Rooted or unrooted????? Also am not sure if it has ODIN....I tried to boot into recovery to run ODIN3 and upgrade to 4.0.4 but when trying to power on into bootloader it just vibrates and will not boot until I release the volume up rocker. Other than curiosity the phone works and performs flawlessly. With superuser being installed and after installing titanium I am sure it is rooted. Still not sure what ODIN is (like I said used to the HTC branded phones and never cared about root) Thanks for all the information. Also I am not sure if I will be able to update to 4.0 when the OTA update rolls out, im not concerned about it being rooted or not (have not found a reason to have rooted yet). Anyone know if it can be updated OTA even though it has root?

You need stock recovery. You need to read the stickies for a few days before you do anything.

Or just keep your phone as is, and wait when ics officially drops, just wait a day and someone will have a flashable zip of it for cwm. Might as well learn the perks of being rooted now and learn your way around the phone

Can't remember who made it but it was from android central but mad by member on here. So thank you to that mamber Kenny something?? Any was have it flashed to 4.0.4 with no bugs. Everything works perfect and so far battery life is great. I must say that so far I am loving this phone.

help with 1.85 root

Hey, so I got a HOX two days ago through att, and it came with 1.85, so I thought I was in luck, and could get it rooted. I've tried the one click root for 1.85 posted in the dev forums, but whenever I check for updates, it finds the 2.20 update and starts to download it instead of rebooting. I then have to do a factory reset to stop it from trying to get the 2.20 update. Am I doing something wrong?
I also tried to do the manual update, but the SDK doesn't work for me (it automatically closes whenever I try to open it to get the modules I need for the ADB). I tried all the solutions i could find for that problem, and none of them worked for me, so I'd prefer to get the one-click working, if it's possible. Thanks for the help!
I have heard the one click has issues now, but I know the manual works. You don't even need the sdk working, just use the version of adb in the one click root folder. You can find a download of fastboot if you search Google.

I have heard the one click has issues now, but I know the manual works. You don't even need the sdk working, just use the version of adb in the one click root folder. You can find a download of fastboot if you search Google.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks for the quick reply. I tried that before, but the ADB closes as soon as it launches, so that's a no-go for me, unless I can get that problem sorted out. Also, can't you only use fastboot if the device is s-off? I was under the impression that the HOX was shipped s-on from my forum searching, though I have yet to check my device myself
How are you launching adb? You can't just click the app itself, you actually have to run it in the command prompt. adb has to work on your computer, otherwise the one click would do nothing.

Oh man, I don't know how I missed that. Yeah, I was just double clicking to start ADB :/ I think I've got ADB working now, though now I need to charge my phone up before I try to root again. Thanks for all your help, hopefully in a few short hours I'll be back in root-land with a custom rom like I was used to on my HTC aria (liberty)
