Okay I have downloaded kaosfroyo and when I go into recovery mode all I get is a phone with a triangle arrow. I want to root my phone badly but the more I read the more lost in get. I do not have access to a pc so I need to do the root straight from my phone itself. I have hboot 1.49. I have downloaded both the easy eris root but do not know where to type all that data? As well as the tool kit with everything in it. Please help me root my eris. Thanks you in advance for any and all help.

The guys here h t t p ://chat(dot)andirc(dot)net/ helped me out with your SAME issue yesterday. I am now rooted running KaosFroyo and overclocked and metamorphed. You need to be able to enter command prompts and understand the concepts of how this works or they cant walk you through it.

Temporary?!? I'm curious to know why you said that because I used SuperOneClick to root my phone and it hasn't reverted back. Is SuperOneClick not supposed to be able to root the Optimus V?
u should have used z4root it's even unrootable...!!!!
Hey dude. i tryed to follow the instructions on the forum. didnt work.

Lets see if i can help. (Cranks handle on Monkey and rubs crystal ball). Monkey says to reboot phone, flash newest ruu from development, and take back to sprint.
Good luck and i am sure this will fix it!
Seriously, post a question with relevant info and i am sure someone here can recite back to you what you would find with a couple of google searches or reading the OP of the thread you got your tool from.
Later.

Have u set up Adb on your computer? All the temp root methods I have used require adb. If u have then i would suggest in a terminal moving to the directory you have it set up in and type "adb devices" and see if you get a serial #. If u don't know what Adb is then the unlocker has a great tutorial just Google it.

haha s-off allows you to protected parts of the phone to do things like flashing custom roms. But once you get s-off you can perm root. if you need help setting it up let me know, its pretty straight forward though
Thanks. ima try to set it up tomorrow. I'm spoiled, I'm used to the super easy iphone jail brake.

Im a noob but not to rooting i have tried every method possible still no luck.some 1 bought this phone from over seas (i am in Jamaica) it is running on gsm mode i cant even see what prl im on wen i go into setting about phone.i think if it was activated then i wouldn't have all these prob.the phone was his personal device when he sold me he call and canceled it. So i am at a loss rite know because he cant ask for msl code for a phone he reported lost
as ive said before. If you are having problems rooting or think its not working try to put your phone in charge only mode under usb. Bet that will fix it for you.

1. Go to Settings/Application/development menu and make sure that USB debugging is checked
2. Open Notification screen by swipe down from the top of the screen, you should see USB connection. Choose that and make sure choose "Charge Only" and click OK
3. Download Superuser from Market and install it on your phone.
4. go to Settings/Display/Screen Timeout and choose never
5. Download drivers, ADB packages, Root files from the link below and extract them to your C drive under Root directory (C:\Root). Then just follow the direction of the link below to root your phone.
http://briefmobile.com/how-to-root-motorola-photon-4g
If you follow the direction correctly, If i remember correctly at the last step your phone Superuser application should popup and ask you to allow the root process to access root. Click OK then you are root
So my atrix doesnt charge via wall or pc. it doesnt even get recognized by the pc. i have an external battery charger to keep the juice up. I sucessfully unlocked and flashed rom racers recovery but CANNOT get root. during the ADB shell phase of root i get the error no device connected etc. im guessing the charging port is broken, does anyone have a quick fix? thanks.
problem is the root apps wont work and im wary of flashing a custom rom without root permissions. thanks

Tell us more of the history of the phone. Any recent drops? Is the phone used or new? Depending on what you say, the more options are there for help.

it was my girlfriends phone it was stock all the way until last night. it was out of warranty and had the wifi error. moto wanted 110 to fix but we didnt want to spend that much $ because she already had a new phone. shes always had a case on it. we bought it new about a year or so ago.
it just doesnt charge it connect. even with many different chargers.

Have your tried flashing any custom ROMS on it? If I recall, I could be totally wrong, when I put my custom recovery on the phone, it had to be rooted.
Download root checker from the market. That should tell you if you are definitely rooted or not.
If you are you can put your micro sd card in the computer with an adapter, put the custom ROM on that way, put the sd card back in the phone and flash the ROM like that. Post back when you tried root checker.

ive tried root checker it says no. it connects via fastboot. i used fastboot to unlock and i fastbooted a recovery. but for the rooting process, it requires the phone to connect via usb and since the charge port/usb doesnt work idk what to do.

Have you looked at the house of pudding sticky or the other stickies rather? I am not familier with pudding but READ first if you do need to root through usb. I might be wrong but pudding might be without usb. Let me know. I have one idea left if this falls through.

I read pudding, clicked on the ROOT link and it linked me to a weird website. its probably old. im on 2.3.6 i believe. if i scroll down some, the instructions say to type in ADB shell, which means connect my phone in the usb right? I do have android debuggin checked as well. whats the solution! please tell me its an easy charge port fix!

I think you might be able to use terminal emulater as adb on the phone if that makes sense. If that is possible also. I am going to ask someone. So give me a bit.

I first started out with Samsung Galaxy Note II Kit. But, the update said I needed to do something about unlocking my boot loader, so I went to the Adam Outtler page. But, he says in the first post that this won't work If you do it with an OTA update after January 18, 2012. Well, I didn't notice that first anyways and tried Odin, and all it would do mainly was fail, or setup connection would take forever, and even Casual says:
/system/bin/sh: su: not found
noroot
DEVICE IS NOT ROOTED! ROOT YOUR DEVICE! Install any VRALJB ROM --Adam Outler
What I think I need to do is uninstall the OTA update, but most people I have seen do it through a rooted phone, but I don't have one yet. I have no idea what to do, and I am really confused and don't want to hard brick or screw up my phone. Could anyone help me with this? I am sorry if I am being stupid about this, but the only thing I ever rooted was a NOOK tablet which was simple.
P.S. I am sorry but if anyone respond between the times of 10am-12pm today, and 4pm-12am today, I will not be able to respond due to work arrangements I have for today.
First confirm the baseband: System Settings > About Phone > Baseband. If it shows VRALL4, you have the update and need to use the updated root and unlock method here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2118348
Just go slowly and follow the directions (measure twice and cut once), its pretty easy. Good luck.
start at section 1 of my guide...then if youwant to unlock follow adams thread. make sure to use his latest "jailbreak" method(the one linked in my guide).
If you on the latest software from Verizon, just use Adams guide. That's all I did. Need any help let me know!
Or just follow this dude here.

the last thing i would recomend is using anything other than adams or my thread. also the op may just want root, which he can simply place root66 in odin and be done. the latest software adds no benifit other than if you like to internet bench race.
