Very organized and helpful, thank you.
I updated the ROM section. I included a description of each ROM, put the most recent update date, updated the version numbers, and put them in order of newest to oldest.
I also put a backup section and included a how to on backing up your phone using Clockwork. It may need some further explanation but I provided the basics. I also updated the WiMax portion since it can now be done using Clockwork.

I didn't want to have to ask everyone for their permission haha. I figured they would add it if they wanted.
If I don't need their permission then I will... but I didn't want to break any rules.

Hehe...yeah...I realized that once I got in there and didn't see any of the latest ROMs I had been reading about. And people wonder why newcomers prefer to ask questions rather than just read a bunch of stickies.

Everyone keeps posting on here that there is no root method for B70 transformers. I returned my first one and just got another one a couple days ago. First one was a B60 and the second one was a B70.
However, upon getting the second one I forgot to even check the serial number to see if it was one of the ones that couldn't be rooted. I did the one click method with the Ubuntu script and it worked perfectly.
I'm running Prime 1.6 as we speak. Clockwork installed and working fine.
EDIT: Complaining about a question mark. So reformatted so I didn't ask a question

This is a perfect example of a thread that should be posted in Q&A, not General Discussion. Quick Rule: If you end the thread title with a question mark, put it in Q&A.
As far as the question itself, not all B70s have the new SBK. The ones with new SBKs cannot be flashed using NVFlash, but IIRC the one-click method will still work. If you try to use NVFlash and it fails, you have a new SBK.

There are 2 versions of the B7O, one where both the 1-click & nvflash works & one which is unrootable atm and none of the options work!
If you have the one that works, congrats! if you have the latter one...tough luck and be patient, hopefully there will be a way to fix it soon

I picked up a WIND Samsung Galaxy S 4G today. I looked in the Android Dev thread here and I don't see anything specifically for this phone.
The model number is T-959W so I don't want to try anything with hacks/roms etc meant for the T-Mobile version.
I'd be happy to supply a dump of my phone for any devs who want to play around and help us here in the great white north!
Thanks
System dump would be nice if you can provide it. I'd advice against installing any mods you found here. Good thing you're cautious
Great, thanks! I have never done a dump before so I'll have to look into how to do it. I will let you know when I do.
I see it has 8 gig internal, we only got 2 there's a tutorial somewhere for system dumps, let me find you the link.
You need to be rooted I believe.

Sure but idk if our devs are gonna build you guys stuff. Also, go to sampro.pl, it is a polish site so use Google chrome to translate it, then create an account for the site, go firmware downloads for your model if you see. If you do, then post a link to the latest version.

I have heard that there may be an update in August. It may be prudent to wait for this update before capturing a ROM image, in case important fixes are made.
I guess a good question would be whether anyone has had any experience flashing T-Mobile SGH-959v ROMs on to this device.
Another avenue could be to ask someone inside Samsung whether they changed much between models.

Absolutely! I'm currently taking a little break (gotta find a job... like two weeks ago.), but when the dust settles, I'll take a little look at the source and see if we can help out.
What you could start with is a diff between the SGH-T959V-TMB_GB_Opensource.zip and the SGH-T959W_NA_GB_Opensource.zip drops.
I'd be willing to look into giving you guys something fun to work with.
I'll do a series of diffs tonight on the T959W stock kernel source and the T959V sources (stock and our CM kernel).

You really shouldn't flash roms not made for your phone. If they contain bootloaders, you could brick your phone.
Hey T959W people. Looked at the source and things are looking pretty close. I'm not saying to run off and flash our stuff, but I need some info and someone with the big kahunas to try flashing some stuff.
Please be running linux. I can't help you with windows problems.
It would also be helpful if you have a usb download mode jig.
You can get one here:
http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-galaxy-s-download-mode-jig/
Ok Canadians! I've verified that the SGH-T959W should be exactly the same as the SGH-T959V.
There were some interesting differences between our T959V and T959W that may fix some bugs for us on T959V.
With that said, please... please... please, read all of the instructions for flashing ROMs and Kernels very carefully!
If the rom contains bootloaders, please DO NOT flash them until we can confirm there are no bootloader differences.
Like I said before, it is very common to soft brick your device. It is not the end, and do not worry if you do this. Make sure you get yourself a usb download mode jig here:

This will help you use heimdall or odin to flash stuff to your phone to make everything happy again.
You will only hard brick this device by writing the wrong bootloaders to the phone, which is why I am warning you to not flash bootloaders, for now!

I managed to get my Wind SGH-T959W rooted and up and running with a unofficial CM9 build, but it took a bit of work.
Firstly, I tried just about every one-click solution out there, to no avail. It's possible SOC 1.7 with rattlethecage works, but I didn't have the patience to find out whether I simply had to wait a bit longer.
I followed this guide(whilst clenching every clenchable muscle I could consciously control):
http://www.galaxyforums.net/forum/o...mission-t-mobile-galaxy-s-4g-gingerbread.html
The gist is, Odin 1.7, stock+voodoo for T959V, plus some update that I'm not qualified to describe. That should get you rooted and if that's all you're looking for, you'll have to suffer through a little T-Mobile branding on startup.
Once you got it all rooted, you'd think it'd be a good idea to toss sgs-ics on there, right? Well, no. After installing the 4G variant, it promptly set off into a boot loop which I'm again, unqualified to diagnose. The obvious solution was to try another team's version of ICS, which I indeed found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1730954
Barring some missing features, it sounds like a good alternative to sgs-ics. Though I had to go through one additional step, which I really, honestly assure you I was under-qualified to execute. When I tried to load Team Acid's CM9 r3 it gave me an assert on the updater-script, since the hardware didn't match up. Easy. Unzip the package, open up META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script, remove the first check. You know it's the same hardware, you don't need some stinkin' script to tell you it won't work.
So all said and done, I now have a Wind Mobile SGH-T959W running ICS 4.0.4 courtesy of bhundven, the Odin folks, Team Acid, and likely a slew of other contributors.
Thanks folks, and enjoy!
PS, if you want that tarball bhundven, send me a PM with some brief instructions, and hopefully you can help my fellow Winders.

Ok first off, I want to say that yes I have looked at countless threads explaining and asking the same thing, and none of them have been very useful. Maybe that's my fault, maybe it's just want I'm use to in the past. So I want to apologize to people who see my thread and go "Uuugh another retard". I don't want to be a retard or a jerk or anything of the above, but I just feel like nothing in the forums for this phone is as clear or well formulated as the phones I've dealt with in the past on XDA and I don't know why that is. Maybe I just haven't really learned anything from my past experiences
I have the HTC One X (duh) AT&T at software version 1.85, and I'd like to root it and do whatever else I need to do to get to the point of being able to load custom ROMs. My issue is that even after reading several threads, including the ones specifically about rooting version 1.85, I have no idea what to do. I've rooted phones in the past and never had this much trouble understanding instructions, and I think it's just because in the past the guides have always been extremely clear and explicitly stated what I needed, where I got it, how to load it, and how to use it. I've only done a few phones in the past, HTC Inspire, HTC Tilt 2, and an LG model that I've forgotten the name of.
So ok, here is this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709296 What exactly am I supposed to do here, because to be honest the instructions there are terrible. I read through probably fifteen pages of that thread, and felt like an idiot because no one else needed help even starting. So I started looking around, and I found some other posts asking for help, but everyone had seemed to actually have gotten past the initial point. For me, I can't even properly download the su file because it has no file type and Windows is all **** you buddy give it a file type (I just called it a zip file so I could at least have it downloaded.) I also looked at this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672284 thread, and I understand what to do here but from my understanding I should be rooted first so that's a problem yes?
So could someone please assist me with a properly designated and clear set of instructions on how to get my phone to the phase where I can do more with it?
I fully understand if no one wishes to help me, or if this exact issue has really come up before. I've been looking for awhile and just haven't had any luck at all. Thank you for your help if you wish to help, and thank you even if you don't. Have a wonderful day.
I rooted mine with by "faking" an ota update.. that is you have to go to att update (go to settings and scroll all the way down) and from the console push some files to the phone via adb and then hit "update" in the phone.. I can't remember the thread though...

OP has linked the correct thread for rooting 1.85. The only working method, AFAIK.
I was completely new to the Android universe and also had problems getting started, but it helped when I figured out what ADB was.
http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html
Basically, what you want to do (per the thread you linked to : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709296)
FIRST - install ADB!
Then :
- pull the SIM card (i didn't do this, but I'm just reiterating the insturctions on that page )
- do a factory reset
- do not connect to the internet after factory reset. Just go into settings and enable USB debugging, and plug the phone into your computer's USB port.
NOW, you can (via USB and the ADB tool which you've researched from my link above) run the commands from that thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709296). So open up a command prompt (start->run->cmd on a Windows machine) and just type everything you see in the instructions in that thread. Doesn't particularly matter if you don't knwo what each command does as long as you follow them faithfully
I'd be happy to walk you through it. Your on the right track though. It'll have to be later tonight though. Pm me and I can get with you after 9pm mountain standard.

After its downloaded, will Windows let you rename the file so there is no file extension? My Windows XP system will allow it, so if you're on Windows 7, I'm not sure what the fix is.
Also, the root guide assumes you have some knowledge of ADB. As it seems your are pretty lost, I'm assuming you don't. Gunny's guide has some ADB basics (although I've been told even this starter guide is missing a few basics):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1754018
I rooted back on 1.73, so a different method. But I'll try to help as much as I can.
Also, if you haven't already seen my index thread, its got all the resources posted in Development, in an organized list. Your issue right now doesn't seem to be finding the right threads. But you may find it useful once you get unstuck from the root process, at least:

So I have the Stingray Version of the Motorola Xoom 10.1". (The Verizon 3G/WiFi Model MZ600). Anyway I've always been very weary of rooting this device. Mainly I think because it was my first Android device, and it has some sentimental value of sorts to me. And, because I haven't been very confident in the Forum Threads that I've come across on rooting The Original Xoom. I just don't want to end up doing something to it that I can't fix.
I also haven't been able to find an actual working Download Link for a 1-Click Method or All-In-One Tool to get the job done. I've seen plenty of articles on it, like XxLordxX links, but his didn't work for some reason, and any other Links I come across, when I click on the links, they are either set to private, or they are removed, or closed down. I am not fluent enough in Command Prompt, or ADB Terminal to be able to type in the code to manually root my Xoom. I just need some help, if anyone out there can help me out I'd greatly appreciate it.
I also have a Samsung Galaxy S3 (SGH-I747) which I used Odin v3.05 to root. I am sort of familiar with Odin, but I don't know if there is something like that for the Xoom.
I should probably also point out that the Specs for my Xoom are as follows:
Android Version: 4.0.4
Baseband Version: CDMA_N_03.1A65P
Kernel Version: 2.6.39.4-g42a0480
[email protected] #1
SMP PREEMPT Tue Mar 13 15:58:08 PDT 2012
Build Number: IMM76L
Once again, any help that is given will be greatly appreciated. I really want to root my Xoom now, it's taken me a long time to decide, but now I'm ready lol.

Sorry for the questions, but I'm very nervous about doing anything to my Xoom.

I used that Rom from another thread after flashing TWRP recovery, just couldnt find it when I posted, so I edited the original post when I did.
Please help!!!!!!
Unfortunately you're still not really answering my question. Which is how did you actually Root your Xoom? And how would I go about Rooting mine? The "1 touch" that I was talking about that I'm looking for, was, a "1-Click/1-Touch Root Method" that I had came across a while back. Unfortunately any of the links I click on for it, doesn't work anymore. That's why I am asking to see if anyone knows of anything similar. Or just an easier method of Rooting the Motorola Xoom Stingray Edition. Please Help!!!!
Well I guess no-one can answer my question. All I wanna do is root my stingray model xoom. Can anyone help?

Here is how I rooted my xoom.
follow the directions here but instead of doing step 1 follow this for adb install http://www.support-4-you.com/main/i...ged-adb-installation&catid=40:how-tos&Itemid= it is a 1 click adb install then follow from step 2 on.
Use the tutorial I posted here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21920428&postcount=3) or here (http://www.undergroundandroid.com/underground/node/35)
I used my own tool to root my Xoom, but it was the Linux version, this tutorial worked for almost everyone, try it
Good Luck!
