Still running 2.1 is this ok???

[enlightened]

Did you finish flashing that file and are back up and running?

 

[NewbieToHacking]

Okay, next step is to reroot- use this tutorial: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...ow-root-stock-2-2-using-unrevoked-3-22-a.html

And you should be good to flash ROMs, kernals, whatever you want.

wiped my whole phone tho

It did a factory reset. Your contacts should sync back up from gmail in a minute. My bad that I forgot to mention that you'd lose text messages, but everything else including downloaded apps should still be there.

 

[NewbieToHacking]

apps are gone but pics and backed up contants are all good. Thanks alot if I have any problems I know who to talk to now thanks so much.

ok I`m having a problem with this

1. Look at your Windows Device Manager (to open Device Manager, right click My Computer, select Manage..., select the Device Manager) and see if you already have Android Phone listed for HBOOT as shown in one of the images in the link below. If you see the Android Phone, you're ready to root and can skip the rest of this. Otherwise, you do not have HBOOT-capable drivers, and you need to install them. Windows should be looking for drivers now. At this point things may differ between XP and Vista/7.

Cant seem to find hboot capable drivers!!!!!!!!!!

That's step 8. The drivers are available in a link above that section.

 

[NewbieToHacking]

ok first off the link will not unzip second problem that has come up is that now when my phone boots it says call to activate wtf did I do wrong every thing was going good I thought.

 

[NewbieToHacking]

another thing is that all my super user and wireless tether was gone is that because it has been downgraded just in case I have to goto verizon

 

[NewbieToHacking]

ok I`m starting to freek out!! Not really sure what to do??

 

[NewbieToHacking]

well I`M going to take this as a bad thing since you have not replyed to me and go with I`m S.O.L for tonight .

 

[NewbieToHacking]

should I call Verizon or wait???

 

[enlightened]

Hang on- you're not out of luck. I've been busy over at the other forum. I'm not quite sure why you're having problems that other people haven't encountered before. Let me ask around and I or someone else will get back to you ASAP.

 

[jkhonea]

Don't call Verizon. Probably won't be able to help you at this point. I have a feeling one step went sideways along the way. Can you post your exact steps that you have taken up to this point? Also, are you S-OFF or S-ON?
