Hey everyone, I have a Droid and know the ins and outs of it...
....but

Yeah we need more info.
What kind of SPL and radio does he have?
The new MyTouch with the headset jack is a hybrid of sorts of the 32A and 32B. It's basically a 32B with the memory of a 32A if I'm not mistaken.
He has the newer one with the 3.5mm jack. It is not rooted yet, so all stock T-Mobile.

I convinced my own mother to get an Android device for Sprint.
I told her to check out the Hero.
She did and she bought it.
About an hour later she called me up:
"I got it",
"Got what ma?",
"That phone you suggested... the Droid."
"(palm face) IT'S NOT THE F&#KING DROID MOTHER!"
"Then what is it?"
"nevermind..."

Yeah, everyvody says to me when they see my phone "Hey, is that a Droid?" It gets annoying after awhile.

I believe he means he owns a Verizon Droid ... and his brother owns a MT3G
At least that's how I read it.

Figured out the captivate really fast and back to htc after a long time. Has root access been figured out yet? and if it has could someone point me in the direction?
I really am not being crappy with this comment so please dont take it that way but....
have you read the Dev threads yet?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952352
yeah I read it. I might wait until an easier way of rooting comes along. I've borked many an htc in the past and frankly I paid way too much for this beauty to wreck after one day.
Might be a month or so for the easier way, i did mine last night, not hard at all for me.
I don't have this phone yet, but just looking at the directions, it's not hard at all. Maybe just time consuming, if that.
I started doing it and going to take my time. I had to reinstall sdk because I formatted my laptop last night and started creating the gold card. ATT really keeps dropping the ball on these damn phones. When are they going to learn that the iphone is not king?
The only thing Im not sure of is the rom to get sound back. How is it as far as being like the original minus the bloat?
Is this a safe rooting and s-off method? are there any bugs reported?
Is there anyone in the Apple valley, hesperia, or victorville California area who can help me out by any chance? Get back to me please [email protected] thanks

What would ruin your warranty? A non-visible "unknown sources" that ATT actually allows now anyway?
Or s-Off @ hboot?
Or superuser?
Or a non-stock ROM?

I had to go get a new SIM card today and could just see the wheels spinning in the sales gal's head when she was in the settings of my phone , along with a couple of comments about how "bling'd out" it was...like she thinking "how'd you do that? what did this man do to his phone?"...

Yeah I thought about that...if I happened to get a sales rep that yells out, "You're rooted!"...but I needed that SIM card and really didn't want the hassle of popping the Hack Kit and going back to stock just for a SIM card...it was kind of fun .

No doubt. That would've been a major PITA.
My phone looks so stock that I doubt they'd notice. Still, I'd be a bit jumpy while in the ATT store waiting for the SIM. But you managed it, so....
Luckily I got my SIM replacement needs taken care of when I was still stock/unrooted. I doubt I'll ever need another one....

Does anyone else have the issue of the sd card not staying in very well? It doesn't actually click in. The cover kinda holds in down but not very well... mine just popped out =/
Sent from my GT-N8013 using XDA Premium HD app
LOL...
You need to push the sd card in until it clicks into place, will go down a little way as its spring loaded and then click into position. I tend to use something to push the sd card in as its a pain to do it without fingernails... Same way to release it...

Dude, you don't think I tried that?? C'mon now... I'm not a noob. So don't ASSume.
Are you putting it in the right way? Not ASSuming you are a noob but I've seen people who are certifiable geniuses get stumped by simple tasks that the rest of us simple, mundane humans find easy.....
Again, I'm not assuming you are a genius either...
Yes I'm putting it in the right way cause the wrong way won't even go in half way. From the sounds of it it's not a common issue and must just be my device.
Sent from my GT-N8013 using XDA Premium HD app
It is possible the catch that is supposed to kick in and hold the sd card in may be broken, I have seen and experienced this before on other devices. That would be a warranty job.
Before taking back though I'd either try a new sd card, if you have 1, or test the current one out in another device - must be spring loaded like the note 10.1.... That rules out Samsung telling you there's nothing wrong and potentially charging you for the service. Also removes the sd card from the culprit list...

This was my wifes POS Phone till I upgraded her to a SGSIII for Christmas. Now I have a device that would be perfect for my daughter if it weren't for the pesky phone option and Sprint bloatware. Are there any roms available that strip this phone to bare bones with no radios except WiFi? Haven't been able to find any and it might not be on the top of the Dev's todo list so if anyone is up to a ROM that will make this device at least usable because as a phone it SUCKS, but for a kiddo it would be a great toy with some of the game apps. Thanks in advance, and if I missed a ROM that does exactly what I'm asking in the mountains of pages in the Dev forum, please use only a small flame as I'm old and have a cold LOL.
A tip: when asking for help you might want to avoid talking trash about a device we users enjoy using.
My advice, 'the device sucks' and is a 'pos' so why bother doing anything with it. Go buy yourself, your kid or whoever an ipod and move on.

Just hate HTC. Have since the TP2. No appologies for that when they make life just such a pain in the ass. Even cringed when the wife chose it but cest la vie. I'm not going against the boss. Maybe I'm just stupid but I've tried rooting but its a 2.3.4 and every option this thread gives me doesn't work for some reason or another. ShiftRR doesn't run at all saying ADB is at fault but I can ADB into the whole phone myself no problems, ShiftySonOfA almost works but creates a boot loop that thankfully is repaired by doing an --undo, Quickroot seems to work but then unroots the phone just as soon as it reboots. Trying to do it manually using the info on here gives me exactly the same boot loop as the ShiftySonOfA.BAT file does and trying to update from SD using a PG06img.zip I got from a rootkit fails. I can't help it if I'm a Samsung fan. Their goal in life isn't making their users stress out over their phones by daring to think they can do better than they can. If its too much to ask that my RAM isn't more than half full just with OS and bloatware because this phone refuses to root then so be it but even if its miles below my Nexus it's still MILES above any iPoo device.
Then throw it out and go buy a portable media player, or better yet send it to a dev who would put it to use and go buy some type of portable media player.
Edit: and to anyone who actually wants to try and help this guy, does this really seem like a person we need to deal with in our little speedy community in the future?

ROFL Speedy community. Half of you are talking about swapping out to Photons and the other half are moving to One X's. yes I've read an awful lot before posting a question. Guess I'll be getting absolutely no help here. Not that there is much help available for this device when all the links are broken and the ones that are working, don't work for their intended purpose. Feel free to delete the thread MOD I'll stay where I'm welcome, in the Samsung sections.
Happy to see you leave, please don't come again.
Edit: and you couldn't have read to much or you would have been able to root it. Well then again, you were calling your recovery touchwiz in another thread soooo... I'm guessing you have some trouble grasping things at times.

Well its probably been a while since you researched how to root, because if you done that more recently or even looked at my sig, you would have already rooted that shift. I posted it here and in 3 other well-known forums so its hard to believe that you haven't found it.
