I accidentally in my samsung galaxy gt-i9070 with root idiot browser because system folder deleted. Can it start no longer is but also clearly because Yes the system is away. So far I need I now a rom if I lie correctly on each if I need help so I the handy again in gang wars thank you times in advance.
First of all, I sympathize with your sufferings which tell us NEVER accidentally delete anything using root explorer. Secondly, I think you should search for a ROM yourself in this big forum cuz only you are fully acquainted with what your phone needs. If you can neither find a ROM nor find a person to give you a ROM, you'd better go to ask those who sold you the phone for help and it won't take you too much time or money, considering it isn't a hardware damage at all. Thanks.

So I understand correctly I need a rom? If yes you can because link post währe very great of dier thousand thanks.
help me
could someone please help me because I would hate that it ends up in the garbage, and I buy a new. Please please help me!
check this post it will help you to install firmware http://www.teamandroid.com/2012/06/...-to-android-2-3-6-xxle2-gingerbread-firmware/
So you where rooted... Than in your download folder you'll still find some rooted things, so your warenty is void. You SHOULDN'T go to the ones who sold you the phone cause they'll find out! I suggest you find the stock rom and root after you reinstalled it. Can you flash your phone correctly?

Ive searched and read and searched some more. Learned a lot about how to root and the best methods. But what I cant find is the answer to my specific question. I have a new Galaxy S2 skyrocket on at&t running the latest 2.3.6. If I were to root it using the guide on this site, will I lose all my contacts, pica, apps, and settings? Contacts and pics I'm not so worried about because I can back them up to my Pc. But since this is my first android phone (after 4yrs of iphones), it took me about 2 weeks of messing with the settings and notifications and sms apps and so on to get it just how I like it. I'm affraid if I wipe all that by rooting it then ill never be able get it back. Most of the stuff I just figured out by tinkering and trying new stuff till I got what I liked.
Anyway, if anyone can answer that question or point me in the right direction to a rooting process that wont cause me to lose all my stuff, id greatly appreciate it.

There is a sticky at the top of the general forums section that will explain it all. How to root 2.3.6 and all that. And no you will not lose data. Is there a particular reason why you wish to root?
This should be for 2.3.6. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1340526

Just wanted to remove (or freeze) some of the bloatware. And maybe down the road as I get more comfortable with all this I may try custom roms and things like that. I can jailbreak an Iphone with my eyes closed and had mine customized every which way. This android stuff is awesome but very complicated compared to ios.
I did read the sticky but didn't see anywhere that it answered my specific question about losing settings and such. Today is the first time I've had access to a pc all week and was doing all the searching\reading on my phone. If its in there I must have over looked it.
What baseband are you on? You can find this under settings>about phone. Once you are rooted, titanium backup ( which you find in Play Store) will be your best friend for app back up and restore. It would also be advisable to also flash a version Clockwork mod recovery and make up a backup to restore just in case you soft brick for whatever reason.

Actually very easy. Went smooth and I'm now rooted with superuser installed. Now I just need to learn what steps to do next to get the most out of this beast.
Baseband is I727UCLA3 by the way. If you've got any more tips I'll take all the info I can get
Next time search before posting please. Make it a habit.

Actually, as stated in my original post, I did search. I couldn't find the answer to my specific question about losing data and settings and having to start from scratch. Occupational_Hazzard was kind enough to give me the info thati needed. Then I felt comfortable proceeding with the root process.
If I violated the agreement in some way by asking a question on a forum because I wasn't able to find the answer, then by all means delete my account.
And to Occupational_Hazzard, thank you very much for helping out someone who is trying to learn by replying with useful information. Greatly appreciated

Now that you are rooted, I would highly recommend flashing the ClockWorkMod Recovery so you can possibly flash a custom rom in the future, which are usually rooted from the get-go. You need to make a back-up so you can restore to a previous date just in case you accidentally goof something. BTW congrats on the first root of a droid and I am glad to help you.
Did that and installed titanium backup. Was actually scared to death to try it but so far so good! Now I gotta just figure out how all this stuff works one step at a time
Thanks again!

Maybe someone else can chime in, but I usually just backup the user installed apps and data, wifi access points, and so forth. Also you can set the filter to at the top of list things to backup/restore.
Ill work on it some later tonight. By son just woke up from his nap and he doesn't allow for much phone tinkering time at only 15 months old.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
For future reference turn google sync on for contacts and that's done... And there is an app called sms backup for sms... What else did you need that titanium doesn't get?
CM9 Skyrocket
Titanium pretty much covers it. I was just worried id lose everything in the rooting process before I was able to use titanium. Its all under control now. Didn't lose a thing and its all backed up

Hey guys,
since more than a month i am using the xperia active from Sony Ericsson and i ve still guarantee on it.
It s an awesome smartphone, but sometimes the RAM is overloaded and it starts to lag.
Then the battery works for just a day, because of the background-apps, then i ve to charge it again... really annoying
Thats why i want to root my smartphone. Actually i ve ICS(4.0.4) on it (before it was 2.3 or sth.) and i would like to keep it, but on it i want superuser rights. Therefore i found "zergrush" from doomlord, but in other threads i just read thats for Android 2.2/2.3 ...
Is it possible to root my phone without loosing my guarantee (to make root "nearly" unseen after unroot, in case of warranty) on that device?
(sorry for my bad english, i hope you understood my situation and give me some answers )
greetings Red :angel:
You can try rooting using Doomlords method for ICS
Flash a stock kernel of 4.0.3
Root it using Doomlords kit
PS its a batch file
Flash back 4.0.4 kernel
Done !!!

Whether you're going to root it or not is up to u. However, if u do root and u want to make it unseen or unroot, flashing an official stock rom removes the root data.
i read a thread that made a few things clear, i cant remember who posted it (sorry) but it just said that if they cant prove that u rooting your phone is the cause of whatever wrnt rong with your phone, they will still have to fix it under the warranty.
I also never heard of anyone messing up their android as a result of rooting.
Im not saying jump into it and root your android, be careful as we are always warned that their are risks onvolved and developers knows best

For sure root it´s the best option for anyone that like to customize the system.
You should try superoneclick its a program which basically roots your your phone for you, gives you superuser and there shouldn't be drastic changes to your OS either
google it and download then go to youtube and follow a tutorial such as youtubeDOTcom/watch?v=lD4_wAj1WIY (sorry cant post links yet)
As for warranties I'm not sure but this is the safest and easiest method I'm aware of
but you should probably make sure it works on your phone and make a backup before you try it
okay my aunt has an

Please & Thanks
A step by step guide will be unlikely. Making a rom comes from experience and knowledge. It will take alot of work to get that done on your aunts phone. Honestly i don't think its worth it, there is so much involved in trying to develop a rom for a phone. I would just experiment with the phone, do some theming and become use to how the phone works and functions, remember...its all experience

thanks for the info
what are the downfalls/cons of rooting this?(im the type of person who likes to know what the outcome can become)
Advantages
1)You can install a custom ROM
2) You can upgrade or downgrade your phone
3)You can link apps to SD or make a part of your SD card internal memory
4)Performance will be better than stock ROM
Disadvantages
1)You can Soft brick your phone
But you can also unbrick by some methods (This will happen if you don't follow instructions carefully )
2) You can hard brick your phone
(You will have to buy another phone or replace your motherboard)
3)You void your warranty by rooting.

OK. so i watched the noob video before doing all this i just wanna say i tried my best...
so i have rooted 1 phone prior, to this Samsung galaxy s blaze attempt. it was successful.
but this one wasn't so fortunate. i searched your forums up and down and maybe its because i'm "special" according to the video.
i cant find anything on how to help me unbrick my phone.... here's what i did....
1. downloaded odin 1.85
2. downloaded blaze.pit file
3. downloaded blaze-root img file.
did the process word for word action for action. step by step,...
and this is where i failed. i didnt download CWM i didnt download super user...
and i did all this over ICS, which i read in other forums stating that all the things i was doing was wrong because i was following instructions for Gingerbread. which i dont have because i updated to ICS a few mnths ago.. i failed i admit i am a nub... now i need a veteran of android Ownage to save me!

OMG someone PLEASE remove that %^#(^ noob video!!!
Let's all report it as offensive!!
Hi guys, great forum btw.
I have an ainol novo8 discover, (a supposed quadcore ipad mini alternative)
I really need a new rom for this device as the stock firmware is terrible. However search as I mite I can find nothing.
The device is rooted and using es file explorer I tried to remove the bloatwarw, to no avail, uninstall unsuccessful is what im greeted by.
My first question is how do I uninstall these apps? I have dissabled them through settings-apps but I want them gone completely.
My second question is where do I start when working on a new rom for a device? Please note that ainol have yet to release the source code for the ainol discover.
Anyway guys thank you all for your time and patience, and please be aware im a newbie to all this so please do try to simplify your answers.

You have to give some time for people to reply lol, check out Rom Toolbox, you can uninstall everything is you want.
in the upper right is a box "Type to find your device" put your device in there and it will take you to your phone, from there you can access the info you are looking for.
Fair point, sorry.
Just very frustrating device.
Ainol havent released there firmware yet anyway so I guess theres no way of creating a rom without it.
Thankyou btw for mentioning rom toolbox, with that es file manager and a factory data reset I managed to get rid of all of the bloatware (that I know of ) off the device.
