ALRIGHTTTTTTTTT.. let me get this out of the way... im a NOOB NEWB N00B when it comes to the whole rooting thing. Ive always been the Apple kinda of person. I wanted to root my phone for themeing it like a jailbreak.. But i have no idea what im doing! I wanted to know if there was like a good reliable themeing app or a font changing app? But ive been searching on google and everything is just there to save your battery and make your phone faster. So if anyone could help me out im open to PAID APPS as well.

I might seem like a n00b but im coming from a crapy windows 6.5 phone Tilt2. And I was wondering how to go about rooting my infuse. What is the reason for doing it.
Thanks

Go there.
From what i understand, it's pretty much getting administrator access to the phone. So you can change anything about it.
I dont know much about it, coming from iphone. Learning as i go.
Okay, so I am looking at using MetroPCS as my service provider because of the very cheap plan prices. The phone I would like to get is the Optimus M. Now does any one know if it is possible to root the phone? I have never owned a Android phone, so I'm kinda new to this, but I would really like to root it. Also, if it is possible, how easy is it to do? Along with these 2 questions, I have one more. I was looking into CM7, and if it is possible to root the phone, can CM7 be used. If not, are there any other CM7 like ROMs?
I am a noob, so sorry if this sounds stupid. Thanks for any help.
Sincerely,
Jetso
I used to have an OG Droid that I rooted, but it was just following the directions on Cyanogenmod. Now I have the Samsung Admire (btw, I hate Metro PCS) and I want to root it, however it appears that no one has rooted it yet. So I figured I would learn to do it myself, but I don't know where to start. So my question is, how does one go about learning how to root a phone? What skills do I need to have, etc. Hate not having a rooted phone. Thanks for any help!
which version of Android?
Sorry. 2.3.4
build: gingerbread.eh02

sorry for my english...regards from Indonesia :shakehand
Oh I definitely want to root. My last phone was rooted (was running CM7 at time of death) and I got spoiled, haha. I'm not looking so much how to root my specific phone (as far as I know, it hasn't been safely done yet), but how to manipulate the OS's vulnerabilities to become super user myself. I guess more from the dev standpoint. Kinda hard to get across what I'm looking for I guess.
I would like to know as well. I want to root the Admire BAD. It brings a lot of Metro crapware. LOL.
I have the new skyrocket 2 galaxy phone. I managed to root it by my self. Was very hard. For me. First time first smart phone. I love it.
Anyways im wondering I got oneclick, clockwork. I got the basics. I backed up my apps. Here are some questions.
First. Where can I fully restore everything in case of a horrible mess up? Its already rooted.
I hate loosing what I did to the phone already and starting over with a fresh rom (I have to flash right) well is it worth it? Is there a rom that will really help speed my phone up? I use the hell out of it, I mean I use it for everything so more power would be great or better wifi or better battery life.
Also last basic question. Whats safe to remove that will help my phone speed up a bit. BloatWare. I don't want to brick my phone.
I am learning now but some help on these first questions would really help me get started. Just.. I rooted it now whats the basic of the basic I can do to it. If there is a good thread I should read let me know. I am so new to this.
Thank you I am a noob at this sorry in advanced I will read the forums as much as I can to answer my own questions. I just want to make sure if I mess up or a update comes or something I can put everything back to update then re root? Im not sure if this is like flashing a bios on a computer which I have done.
I no how to overclock computers. Its just I never did this stuff on a phone. Never had a smart phone. Thanks
That's quite a mouthful, mate. Remember, the search function is your friend. Probably in your case the best option. I've seen dozens of posts asking the same questions. Good luck.
HEY EVERYONE
Im always here and there with phones and finally found a phone I absolutely love, which hasnt happened since I had help rooting a GX2
If anyone remembers that pile of mess
ANYWAY
2 questions
1 Should I ? Ive rooted a phone before and when I did I loved the result I loved finding more roots to run and im the type where I like fast and NEW and I can only imagine that some of the stupid glitches I get are because of the Overlays Sasmung likes to throw on.
I do really like the hover feature and things in that nature though
so my 2 is how to do it , but FIRST
Is there any negatives in rooting.. can you not go back to the way your phone was ever again and what about UPDATES ..
Help Please and THANKS
