Database Info

Just bought my Droid Charge today, and ...

... no likey TouchWiz. AT. ALL.
So, I have a few questions:
1) I am currently on Firmware Version 2.2.1. Is this the "ED1" or "ED2" that I see listed in various postings?
2) I want to root - Real bad. I need to restore my apps & settings from my old Droid using MyBackupRoot. But, I also want to be able to unroot, if necessary - in case I need to return the phone. Can I root/unroot easily at this time?
Thanks!

Be prepared, guys are gonna blow you up for asking this question!
You can root and you will need more info on what version you have ED1/ED2.

LOL @ 2.2.1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe you can read the forums or do a search.
Hey psalm462. how you doing? get your Droid Charge yet?

I *did* do a search before posting. Do you know how many posts (useful or otherwise) there are out there on this topic?
I saw earlier, my in my Settings >> About phone >> Build Number is SCH-i510.ED2 I'm assuming that means I'm on "ED2".
Regarding the rooting, I found this thread: HERE. This is for phones already on ED2.
Regarding the unrooting, I found this thread: HERE. You downgrade to stock ED1, and then take the OTA update to ED2.

GotJazz- Check out the development forums for the Charge. There are many threads regarding rooting/un-rooting.

Am I missing something here? The link above points to the Infuse 4G forum. I was not aware that the platforms were the same. If that is the case, then we have a working CWM mod ported from the captivate and a whole host of other roms to try.
If not, then somebody just borked a phone.

[Q] how do i root my android phone again?

Hi,
I had recently flashed ics stock firmware onto my skyrocket(from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652398). When I booted it, I saw that my superuser was still there even when it was not. I was wondering if rooting it again might brick my phone.
Thanks
Daniel

Noob needs help with rooting 4.2.2

Hey all,
I've looked through threads here and I'm just overwhelmed. I had my S3 rooted on 4.1.2 but Verizon kept coming up with these updates that I could either defer for 5 days or...update. When I chose update, it took me back to TeamWin. So I redid a fresh format from the TeamWin screen (I really don't mind rebuilding my phone and contacts) and I was able to update to 4.2.2 after that but but I'm still getting that Verizon update warning.
First of all, how do re-root my phone with 4.2.2? I thought TeamWin would disappear but it didn't. So I went back to that screen and went to Download. Now I'm on a screen with the Android robot that says "Downhloading... Do not turn off target !!"
I'm not sure what it's downloading.
I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section. I would be fine with a moderating moving it.
Thanks a lot!

First, this is T-Mobiles forum, you want Verizons.
Second, if twrp is still installed all you need to do is flash the SuperSU or superuser zip you can find eith a quick search.
Third, that is download mode. Only for use with Odin.
Fourth, considering you don't know these things, I suggest you read up on some of the many guides you can find here on xda.

I highly suggest you do quite a bit of reading before you start messing with rooting and flashing roms. You could very easily brick your phone if you don't know what you're doing or if you flash a file that isn't meant for your phone.

Also it is VERY important you be in the correct device forum. There are 5 S3 forums.
Moved to Verizon S3 Q&A

Verizon does not have an official 4.2.2. We are still on 4.1.2 MF1 as the official. If you have 4.2.2 it is from a rom you have flashed.

Only the S4 have Touchwiz 4.2.2 so we will assume that you are talking about AOSP roms as they are 4.2.2. Please be clear in your post so we can help you. Now to teach you about download mode it's there for you to flash stock Touchwiz back to your device via a software called Odin. Now what you just ask about (download mode) you could have Google searched it yourself and got your answers faster.
