I am having much difficulty rooting my phone. My phone is a Docomo NEC Medias N-06C running Android 2.3.6.
So far I have tried Z4Root, Universal Androot and Gingerbreak. No luck.
I have no computer skills, so trying to use SupeOneClick or other computer programs have proven impossible for me. I have the drivers for the phone, but no idea how to install them in WIndows.
Can anyone recommend a good tool to use to download onto the phone and root from there?
Wow, a week and not a single reply. Either no one knows, or no one cares. Both makes this forum a huge disappointment. I thought this was the place to go for smart advice. I was wrong.
You have to develope it by your own, doesn't exist yet

No one here has yet created this for: your device, sadly when it comes to rooting it depends on if a developer owns the device your attempting to mod. In this case No there's no one here at Xda. Be sure to use Google thoroughly and search everything available for device you want to root. If there is nothing out there meaning no dev has ever developed anything for your specific device your next option is this " Search for a device that is similar in specs such as cpu/gpu, processor speeds, firmware versions. Now if you find devices that are similar.
"For example my device Sgh-T679 Samsung Galaxy Exhibit ⁴g has a similar device the Sgh-T679M Samsung GalaxyW they are very similar meaning devs used builds from the Sgh-T679M and ported them to the Sgh-T679 For Example: the sgh-T679 never had anything higher than Android 2.3.6 released in it. Using Sgh-T679M builds we've successfully ported over Android 4.0.4-4.1.*"
All the How To Guides are located on the web(actually if search here at Xda everything you'll need can be found here) If there are no mirror devices for the one you are using then I'm sorry if your not a developer then you may be S.O.L. Hope this has helped you and goodluck, I'm sure some where out there on the web there's someone out there who's already worked towards rooting your device. Find what you need look up the How To's you'll need to achieve what your looking for and read up If your computer literate then you may possibly be able to do it on your own. Also remember there are emulators and Android Sdk that you can use on your PC as a developing tool so you can test out the rom on your PC first. It basically I'd a program that runs your Android device in your computer so you call mod, test see what works and what doesn't work start over mod, reapply and have no risk of bricking your device in the mean time. I wish you luck and welcome to Xda.
I promise you I know computers can seems like trying to read a language you've never heard of before but here at Xda the great Developers have created flawless guides on How To's for everything involved with Android Open Source Project.
Edit: I reread your post and see you said your not very computer savy please just use the guides provided and or you will learn or meet someone along the way who will be more than happy to help you achieve what you ate trying to do goodluck friends wish you well

Hi guys i'm nes on this forum, i'm italian and i have a samsung captivate i897, i also take this opportunity to introduce myself...

i have a i897 captivate marked AT&T for this i have a problem to fix the GPS and to install applications outside the market, I would like you to help me to make clean OS from the applications AT & T and put in i897 a i9000 ROM not rooted...please guys help me, and thanks in advance
1. Read the new owners guide.
2. This forum is about learning things by yourself. Don't expect to be spoonfed.
3. Custom ROM always =Rooted mind you.

I can't recommend anything man. Everything is good.
You have to discover by yourself what suits your needs.

the new user guide (that i wrote) teaches about stickies! and where to find them!
find the stickies in the captivate general, q&a and dev forums they have all the answers you are looking for and way more.
go. read. learn.
this is really basic stuff. At&t does not like you installing apps not from the market "its called side loading" you need to be rooted to fix it and there are pleanty of guides "one click root has an option to enable non market apps" to get a different rom go to the dev sectoin chose a rom and follow the simple directions or for a guide for the entire process http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884364
Assuming what you meant was that you want ATT's crap taken off and a new ROM...
Why would you not want your device rooted? If voiding your warranty is a concern it's fine, there are plenty of methods to return back to stock Eclair/Froyo. And there really isn't a ROM out there that's head and shoulders over the rest, you're going to have to play around and see which one you like the feel of the best. Try out a different ROM every couple of days and see how you like it.

If you are asking someone to help you build a rom well... I don't think that will happen. You can go to samfirmwares.com and download a stock i9000 rom, but without root you, and if you don't know how to build to incorporate the home button and haptic feedback fixes, your phone won't work right. My suggestion is to go to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790
They are all stock i9000 roms with only busybox and root installed. I'm using the stock jvh on my captivate, at the moment, and it works great. You will have to deal with root. It's better to be rooted anyway.

Only replying to that small part of your post, and correcting you by saying no, you don't need to be rooted to sideload applications. SWM (Sideload Wonder Machine) can do it so long as you have the drivers installed and USB Debugging on. I installed several applications as soon as I got the phone, long before I ever rooted my phone, much less installed a custom ROM on it.

Why didn't you use google? There are plenty of places that explain how to root that aren't on this site, which is more an "advanced" place anyways(I use that term loosely, but I get the idea that people here assume you know a little about your phone).
Check out MobileTechVideos, the guy who does those had a three-part, in-depth ROM flash set of videos that explain exactly how to use One-Click to Root.
Edit:
Christ dude, use some decent punctuation and at least attempt to be succinct in your requests. Freaking out isn't going to get you anywhere.

Hey everyone just got a milestone from COX Communications, Great phone so far. But im trying everything i can through RSD and i cant get it to work keeps saying its failing. Anyone have ideas as to what could be wrong?
Why do you need rsdlite to root phone? You can get many apps from market for this purpose.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
To root Milestone, you can install Universal Androot. it is an one-click root app.
But don't I need vulnerable recovery installed to get open recovery and install custom roms? Title probably should have been worded differently.

Yes you do, although you should be creating a thread in the General section, or look there, a lot of people have the same questions you do.
First step into the custom ROM world
I believe besides rooting somewhere down the road you would also want to try custom ROMs.
If that's the case, here's the solution for you. Most of us use this method.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811221
I don't mean to be mean or anything, but as of now, the motorola milestone is kind of low-end compared to devices like the samsung galaxy s2. The motorola milestone has a 550mhz processor, with 256mb ram, while devices like the samsung galaxy s 2 has 1.2GHz dual core processor with 1G+ of DDR1 ram (I'm pretty sure its ddr1, and similar devices such as the atrix are also very high-end but not as great as the samsung galaxy s 2) Don't get me wrong, there are a large variety of roms available for the milestone, and updates being made time to time.
On topic: you will have to install GOT 2.2.1 update with Vulnerability exploit already injected then root from Open Recovery, but I heard that Universal Android Root or somrthing like that also works. Good luck
I don't understand why some people can't just read the first few forum topics... It's literally right there... a whole guide that explains everything...
Hello,
I started a new thread to try and gain some more experienced attention. the other two threads within this massive forum don't have any real support in the way of actual, knowledgable developers.
There are apparently a lot of people that have the AU/KDDI version of the Galaxy S III. (SCL21). There is apparently not, however a lot of support for it. If anybody has any resources or advice for rooting/moding I'm sure we'd all be very grateful.
Thanks in advance,
And happy droiding!
Bump! I know a lot of people that has this phone but there really no support on it.
I'm willing to give you something to buy your beer for your hard work.

Have you by any chance tried Bin4ry's Root Restore method? I used this to root my father's Kindle Fire HD several weeks ago, over a remote internet connection no less, and it works a charm. I can't post links yet but do a search for "Root MANY ANDROID" and you'll find it. If you do try it, you'll probably want to run it as an Administrator, I think that's how I had to do it. There have been several posts from others in that thread that have rooted their S3 variant with this. Good luck!
Hi guys,
I just got the AU SCL21 about two weeks ago. I agree, I think it's really strange that even on the Japanese forums, there is very little info on rooting this model. From everything I've found, the Japanese sites also both say it's OKAY to root using the Docomo SC-06D recovery and Superuser zip and that it's NOT safe to use that same method. Really odd, conflicting messages...
I just tried using Bin4ry's Root Restore*version 30 with the latest Samsung ADB drivers and after the ADB restore and phone reboot (while still connected to my PC), the command prompt in Windows says that Superuser failed to be installed. :/

I have already sent an email to the site email form, so please don't overload them with requests, just wondering if we could gather interest and support for this device, the stock ROM is already laggy and hard to root or even using sometimes with the way they have this ROM set up. Please help, I am in stock ROM H.E.Double hockey sticks.

Hi, sorry to say but it appears to be a bit of a white box brand so it's unlikely to gain support due to it being unknown and present in many variants of the device.
You would be better to look around for ROMs that support specific components in the device in order to have better luck as their will be similar devices using the same components with one of them probably having a ported ROM such as CM
Hope I could help and good luck

root genius worked for me literally just rooted a few minutes ago took me forever to find one that worked

Root Genius worked for me also
Lot of applications that require root access work fine. Now, how do I do a Nandroid backup? Also, anybody know tried a custom ROM on this device? Hesitant to "just try it" until I have a full Nandroid backup.
I have one of these. Got it for $59.95 on sale via Staples website. A curious thing is that none of the preloaded apps show under My apps and the Store won't automatically update any of them. I had to look them up on the Store and install the latest versions.
Hi developers, I have this Sony phone and there is no custom ROM for this device yet and I would like to create one for my own use and possibly made it available for others if I am successful. I am so tired of the bloated software which I can't get rid of that I don't care about bricking this phone anymore.
Some years ago I used to fix computers, printers and networks for banks. I'm new in Android systems but not in computer systems. I did Install OS's like linux flavors or updated printer firmwares in my days so this is not new for me, I just want a little of a guidance to start.
I know how to root my Android system using the app called TOWEL ROOT (the only that has worked in this phone).
The next step that haven't done yet is unlocking the BOOTLOADER, which I don't find difficult to do according to what I have read so far.
My concern is: there is no custom ROM to install after the BOOTLOADER is unlocked, so if I want one I would have to build one. I've watched a tutorial on youtube and I've read the cyanogenmod wiki, but the amount of information is so huge that I got lost and frustrated and that's the help I ask. Could any of you tell me the information I need to read to understand how I could port a custom ROM to my device?
If more information is necessary I'll be glad to provide.
Nobody has made a custom rom for e1.make if you like.

I'm no expert here, but maybe you could try this: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro
Your phone is fairly new and I'm pretty sure kernel sources are on Sony's website, so maybe one of you guys could give it a shot. I would, but I don't have an E1.
