I recently got my I727 and just rooted it using the 1 click tool, I'm wondering if it would be possible to unroot and restore it to factory default settings later if needed (lol i really should've checked before).
Also anyone know if ICS will be coming to this phone?
You can odin the stock tar anytime you want to reaturn to stock and yes ics is confirmed for q1 of 2012
Thanks. How do I know if it rooted correctly. In the site I read it said that superuser and CWM should show up. superuser showed up but theres no app for clockworkmod.
I have some apps from Rogers (my carrier) that I want to remove and I heard that rooting will let me, but it still doesn't let me uninstall or stop the apps running.

So I rooted my phone and everything seemed fine. I Installed and used Tasker successfully and had no issues for about 3-4 days. However, today tried to restart my phone and it won't boot past the droid sign. I tried holding down vol + power and booting in recovery, factory, or normal but they all lead back to the droid image with no further actions. I don't think it had USB debugging enabled so plugging it in seems to do nothing. Any suggestions? I am a complete newbie to android and to the forum so any help is greatly appreciated.
Got it fixed. :laugh: and now im scared of trying to root it again.

Thanks, got it and running ics now, it was very easy and helpful to follow your guide.
Another question, If I wanted to go back to old gingerbread I think it was ver21g, how hard would that be?
Cheers
I have not tried it, but you should be able to flash it in the same manner.

...and glad it worked ok for you. People often, understandably, have trouble with the driver installation part.

So I can flash kdz files with flash tool? or just the bin files only?
Pretty sure it must be .bin and/or .fls files. There is a tool that extracts these from .kdz, but I have not used it and do not know where it is. Likely you will find it in the General section.
---------- Post added at 07:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:53 PM ----------
The advantage is you can try different basebands (.fls) without having to flash the whole system (.bin).

I have root and will be happy to backup and send you a copy. I'm guessing that I need to unlock my bootloader and install a custom recovery first. I cant seem to locate information on unlocking the bootloader and where to get the correct CWM for this tablet. If you point me in the right direction I'll hook you up ?
The cwm can be found here

Ok, it's done. I can see its filled up my storage, but I can't find the files. In the past they would be backed up in the CWM folder, but I can't locate them. Any ideas?

Look in /mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod. Very odd place so I understand the confusion, I've never seen that before.

Nothing to test, cwm works and its a backup. I'll see if I can pull images and make a stock zip like I did for AOSP. So that if it's ever needed again it will be easier.
Also check earlier in the thread for the location that cwm backs up to. For some reason it isn't the standard location.

so whats the exact command I need to put into adb to push the backup onto the device. I copied it manually but it doesnt show up in CWM...lol
---------- Post added at 01:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:26 AM ----------
I get it to push everything via adb but it still shows "install untrusted" in cwm, and it fails everytime, i've tried everything! It's driving me bonkers...i've even pushes the zip/unzipped folder to the same location via rom toolbox pro, and still a no go. it doesnt show up in recovery also
