I have never rooted a phone but i want to root my desire s so i can use backup app to backup app data, I don't want to replace the rom, only root the phone.
Any help would be appreciated
I would recommend that you look in the stickies section, have a good read of what's on there before doing anything

WOW such an amazingly new request. It has never been asked before...

Also this is a question, post in Q&A not in general section.

I'm an experienced user, i've been using roms on my old 32A Magic phone for a while never had to ask stuff really, but now I have a problem with the new CM7.2 ROM and I really wanted to ask something in the proper thread but since I didn't have the previleges I have to open a thread and post stuff to reach to minimum number of posts. Sorry for inconvinience dear mods.
can post now a lot of posts?
just to reach the 10 min? Hope so. Don't wanna spam but I really need this issue resolved/answered.
any mods there??? please answer
First off, starting threads to complain about the 10 post rule is just silly. The mods will most likely delete it and you'll be back to 0.
Secondly, if you have a question then just search the Q&A forum for your device, and if it's not already asked then start a thread there.
Personally, I hate people asking questions about ROMs and the like outside of the original dev thread. I think the 10 post rule should only apply to creating threads in the dev forums, not posting.
But I digest.
As I said - the Q&A forum is apparently the correct place for this.

Wow - there's no Q&A forum. How bizarre!
Anyway, search and (if needed) create a thread in the general forum instead...

I agree..it's pain in the arse..i understand the reasoning but when you've worked in IT or have some semblance of knowledge it's very frustrating and makes no sense when it's a comment about a thread it should be within the thread...i shouldn't have to jump thru hoops first to show that i can post...it surely can't be worse than some of the other crap i've seen people posting..esp when it's already been answered earlier in the thread...that's just lasy...or dare i say it..stupid
great rom...works best for my phone apart from the odd reboot...just an idea but maybe you have already thought of it and its impossible or not...would be nice to have the personalised soft button for a favourites folder or something similar to ics with certain apps in the launcher...this is my first post on xda so don't know if this is the correct place...oh yeh not a noob to flashing and always read posts from aio rsk runnyrom over the last year
great idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Moving to Q&A
So I've got a question, and I hope this is the right forum. I have an HTC Thunderbolt and I use Instagram. A friend that has an iPhone told me about an app called InstaDM. I did some digging and found an .apk on the web, but it's from a site that I don't know how I feel about it.
I was not able to post a link, but the name of the site is WebPicture.
Is there a way to test out the integrity of an .apk file before installing it to see what kind of stuff it may be doing in the background? If you tell me to delete the .apk and not install it, I have no issue with that, but I thought I would at least ask before moving forward.
Thanks.

I know im a noob, but why can't i post on sgs3 verizon synergy rom thread?
Because it is a development thread.
So do i have to get permission or something?
You need to post some more before you are allowed to post in development forums.
In the meantime,if you have a question about a ROM or other development issue, then post your question in the Q&A forum of your device.
Gotcha thanks
Because you're a new user, I suggest you read the threads stickied at the tops of these forums but especially the ones I've linked here.

KidCarter93's post answers this thread's question and many more. Wrong section and closed.
Hey all I'm looking for a Stock rogers Evita 1.94.631.3 RUU is this available anywhere?
Also I've got cm-10-20120908-NIGHTLY-evita.zip currently installed on my HoX How do I flash cm-10-20120910-NIGHTLY-evita.zip to get the benefits of the update but without loosing all my current rom?
Thanks for any light you can shed.
You should really search first before asking something like this... plus this isnt the place to ask questions, we have a Q&A section for that.
Spoonfed version: Try here.
If you bothered to read the sticky threads at the top of this forum, you would know not to post questions here. And you would also have answered your own question on the RUU.

I already reported the thread to the mods to have it moved. You can do so also. That's the proper way to move a thread, not making another thread.
