1hour ago i installed and run z4root app. And switch the temporary root but its force closes then i uninstall z4root then onwards i don't able download the playstore apps any solutions pls help
First of all mate, z4root is a very old app that only works on very few phones. And isn't very reliable. We have a very good method for rooting our phones. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396650
And now, can you explain your issue in greater detail. What exactly do you need to fix? More info would be better.
Also, next time please post questions like this in the Q&A forum.

Hey all. Ive been trying to root my samsung infuse for the past several hours with no success. I followed this method http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-02NrvxDZYA&feature=channel_video_title. When I run superoneclick i receive the waiting for device message at step #7.
So because SuperOneClick did not work i tried other methods. I tried this root method from DooMLoRD: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319653
can also be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18615502
I copied the console text. Maybe it can help solve the problem. I've been looking to find a solution but have not found a fix, so I do apologize if its out there. Can you guys please offer some help. thank you
If you're running stock Froyo, SuperOneClick 1.9.1 will root it. Just make sure that you check the Debug mode box first.
Thanks. I tried it, but i still receive a waiting for device.
I.7 superoneclick will root it without fail....I use it EVERYTIME I go back to froyo

Am I missing something??? I tried superoneclick 1.7 and it still stopped responding and said waiting for device... ahhhhhhhhhh
I don't remember, since I haven't done this in a long while, but I believe you need to have the drivers installed first. Download samsung Kies. Then try it again.

Try another version of super one click. I used v2.2

You're welcome.

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.

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?

Greetings
I'm new to this and I'm trying to root my skyrocket in order to uninstall some apps from my phone like NFS and other at&t apps and I read in order to do that I need to root my phone. I read some tutorials about how to root my phone but they are for version 2.3.6 and I'm running version 4.0.4 . So my question is can I use the same files or is there one for the version I have. And my other question is how I uninstall the apps I don't want after rooting. And I also saw something called super user which u can download after rooting from the market app. Can someone please tell me what is the use for that. Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks for the reply. I went through this sticky before but it did not answer my questions. I'm trying to find out what us the best method to root my galaxy skyrocket for version 4.0.4. Not 2.3.6. Now if that doesn't matter please confirm. Also I didn't see on the link you put where it tells you how to delete the apps after rooting.
Thanks in advance for real help
There really is no best sense it is. Subjective plus rooting for 2.3.6 works the same. As for deleting apps i use titanium backup though u might want to freeze apps instead of deleting them. Just my opinion on that though

So you are saying I can use the same usb software and zip file to root my phone. Just want to make sure that what you meant. I tried to search for root 4.0.4 but didn't find any straight forward toturial.
And thanks for the tip regarding titanium.
If ur using odin yes there are other methods but they should still translate over. My advice before u try it look on youtube for step by step instructions (just search for how to root skyrocket) also use google search there are some nice websites out there for our phone plus google search picks up xda better than there own search does. If you don't want to brick your phone do as much reading and watching how to videos as u can. I read as much as i could for about a week before i rooted but i was also looking at roms

The sticky IS straightforward! All you do is flash cwm in Odin, and then flash the su files in cwm. Titanium backup is used for uninstalling bloat as well as backing up apps+data for when you switch roms. In ics you can freeze apps without root so TiBu (titanium backup) isn't as necessary for uninstalling bloat as it used to. Also, most custom roms are very debloated any way. Upon rooting superuser will automattically be an app on your phone. SuperSu is used to replace it in some roms (some prefer it). Read, Read, oh and btw READ! The sticky was created to prevent meaningless threads such as this. Some take the time, read it and if they actually have real questions then they ask. You are not one of those people.
I wasn't going to answer any of your questions and simply flame you, but I thought I would be nice this time and answer your questions. The long weekend saved you

Once you've rooted and installed cwm from there just search the development thread for a ROM you want and read instructions in op and enjoy.. good luck.

OMG someone PLEASE remove that %^#(^ noob video!!!
Let's all report it as offensive!!
Hello everyone ive been jailbreaking iPhones for quite some time but im pretty new to Android and rooting.
I got an HTC Acquire and saw in a website that i could root it with the HTC Quick Root that this tool can root any htc phone.
But when I get to the thread it says something about s-on and s-off or something along those lines.
Can someone please explain what this is and tell me how to verify that in my phone?
And if i root will i lose everything i have installed?
Thabks in advance

What website was this? You should really try to use root methods that are developed here on XDA. Just search for your phone in the search, and read through the forums there (although I'm not seeing one for the Acquire). Android Police sometimes has root methods, too.
If you root, you shouldn't lose all of your data, as long as you follow the instructions to the letter. Still, it's a good idea to back up whatever data you can (contacts, pictures, music, etc.) just to be on the safe side.
The transition from jailbreaking iOS to rooting Android can be quite confusing. As an iPod touch owner, I feel your pain. Just take the time to read through everything. Then take the time to reread it again.
I hoped I helped. Welcome to the world of Android!

s-on and s-off is related to the bootloader on your phone. i'd suggest you go to any of the htc threads plus others here on xda and you can get info about everything like rooting,bootloader,flashing custom roms,recovery etc
Is that kind of info tje same for every htc or u mean asking in one of those threads

The terms "rooting," "bootloader," and "flashing" are all related to pretty much any Android device. Rooting is the same as jail breaking - it gives you superuser permissions to your phone's filesystem - but every device has a different method to obtain root (or so I'm told). The bootloader - I think - has something to do with booting up the Android filesystem (but don't quote me on it). Flashing is a way to install tweaks, apps, and themes to your device through a custom recovery, all while the device's file-system still isn't completely activated (kind of like restarting the SpringBoard on an iPhone after changing a theme or installing a tweak from Cydia). Try Googling these terms, that's how I got started.
The thread you mentioned said something about having an unlocked bootloader. You may want to look into that before you try rooting.
I just got off of ten straight hours of work, so I hope this made some kind of sense
