Hey all,
I have been having abit of trouble rooting my x10, i am currently using the Newbies guide on the Forum but have tried other Guides as well but with no luck.
When I get to step 1 and Flash my X10 this is what it says in cmd prompt:-
INFO: start
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at java.lang.string.<init><Unknown Source>
at X10flash.testPluged<X10flash.java:103>
at X10flash.run<X10flash.java:375>
at X10flash.main<X10flash.java:417>
Press any key to continue
Now to me that seems like it has worked?
After that, in the guide it says that you will notice Generic X10i R1FA016 firmware (check it by pressing the left button, go to settings>about phone and at the very bottom under build number)
I go to check that but it isnt there... I press onto next step anyways.
I Delete Folders 4 & 5, put phone in Debugging mode on and also Unknown sources on, plug USB in and keep my phone unmounted.
I then Start up Step 2 and wait for the Option 6 to pop up on my phone but it never comes up?
So I do not know what to do now, I have gone back and tried doing it over again, going onto SEUS and Reseting it and starting fresh etc.
Can someone please help me
Thank you Chad.

Clearly you haven't or you would know why your seeing what you do when you run step 1, which is because you've not entered the correct device id.
The 1 thing I didn't try worked...
I tried changing the Device ID to the other one and got The java error...
Then I tried changing the Device ID and changing the USB port and it worked?
Something wrong with the other USB port maybe? Wierd....
Thank you XperiaX10iUser for the replies anyways

Possibly. So where are you at now?
Followed the guide all the way through to the end with no other problems!
Thank god for that, can't believe it was the USB Port
All good now though, just trying out different themes and apps to get.
What Theme are you using, any good suggestions?
Was 1 more thing I wanted to ask though, that Newbies Guide roots your phone, but roots it to the R2BA023 Build.
Can you update it too R2BA026 and keep it rooted?

Nice 1. That could be why some others run into issues, dodgy USB ports.

I came across this thread which hints at rooting in a very simple and in few seconds...My question is that if it is this much easy then why it has been made so complicated in other ways??? Is it really working??? Is there any drawbacks in this type of rooting??? should I go for this way of rooting???

Why you chose to make a new thread (and in the wrong place at that) rather than just posting in the one you linked is beyond me.

First of all thanks a lot for the reply..Sorry for the mistake I made to post it here..I was thinking that it is Q & A forum because I opened several tabs at a time.
The reason I made a separate thread was that I wanted other people also to comment not just those people who replied to that thread...Because I didn't see any expert member to comment on that thread.
Sorry if I am wrong...I am noob to android phone...Before I was using windows phone.
Rooting or flashing is easy as long as you can read, interpret and understand. If you can't, well that is where the "complications" come in.

BTW the only reason for me to root was to get rid of Samsung blotware.
If you are new to this (I'am) don't delete apps ... freeze using Titanium Pro and PLS read this list before you freeze anything:
https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?hl=en_US&hl=en_US&key=0Ag43oj7rLQP4dENZcmhGN0ZUa3pHSENVeXlqUm5vV0E&single=true&gid=0&output=html
I don't know if this method is really an exploit or just a consequence of the Android platform being a development platform open to anyone with a PC and an USB cable to install things...
But the problem with real exploits is that they can be fixed on future versions and be device/manufacturer specific. While installing modified kernels is a feature available for most devices at the cost of the warranty (sometimes).

Root is a very very easy process.
If you root your phone AND ALSO flash it with a custom rom, you ll never look back!
Its easy untill u burn your phone

Hi guys,
New to forum. Please delete this thread if you think this is duplicate. But I can't find any solutions so far. I searched the whole xda forum and googled but of no avail. I looked at the suggestions you give at the time of posting, but no.
Here is my problem.
I followed an excellent thread for rooting the stock rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286432. I got UCKK6 Stock rom working with root and got all the other apps that make use of rooting.(Except I could not find out how to say thank you. Thank you Entropy! ) ). Now I want to install Clockworkmod recovery and I get Signature failed error. I use, the (prohibited) ROMManager.(I cant find an alternative, on SGH i 777 at least.)
Please help me.
Had you spent some time reading through the FAQ and stickies you might have seen the warnings against using ROMManager. Did you try searching for an answer because this is a common pitfall of people who flash a ROM without knowing what they're doing. The stickies in General have your answers.
Yes. I did that. Unfortunately I could not find the alternatives mentioned to for SGH i 777. That's what I am saying in my original post. Please if you can find it, can you post the link?
Thanks
Simple - install a kernel with Clockworkmod.
OK. So flashing a new kernel is the only solution? There is no way I can get around signature issue? Do I have to use Odin, instead of recovery? since obviously recovery is doing signature verification?

Yes, you have yo flash another kernel with CWM embedded in it to have CWM... you need to either use Odin or Kernel Flasher to get that. After you flash a kernel with CWM embedded in it, you will be able to go into CWM recover and flash everything else.
OK. Thanx. And I love the way you guys give quick replies.
(And I get the message read and read. It's just that you won't a get a solution for all the problems from existing threads. The forum is exhaustive but it's not complete is it?)

No, creepyncrawly has a very comprehensive guide on flashing kernels without Odin... And it's stickied!!!

Hi
I would have posted this in the Nabi 2 root thread, but i don't have enough posts to do so.
I have tried and tried to root both my girls Nabi 2 tablets and i get errors with both of them, i have rooted a few Android devices before and find it easy, but i just cant get these to Nabi 2's done.
Using jmztaylor's method i get this error:

If i try to install root or gapps via recovery, i get this error:
I cannot see or understand what i am doing wrong, i rooted my Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 at Christmas and everything went fine, im using the same computer to do thes Nabi 2's but just errors all the time.
My most recent update on them was December i think, is it possible Nabi may have blocked the method to do this between the root being released and Christmas ?

No i just have the normal Nabi 2, im thinking it was the update i did on Christmas day, its above the version that everyone is rooting their Nabi 2's on.
EDIT
Thanks to your link, i found this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2074501
It seemed to root fine, i even have SuperSU on the Nabi, but it wont install gapps, so i tried installing the Market independently, it installs but wont run, lol its frustrating as i normally find these things easy, now i feel a bit stupid for not being able to get it sorted.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2065878&highlight=nabi
not sure if you tried this version of gapps ?
I just go in to Twrp in choose install
this tablet does tend to exersize the brain a bit more
thank goodness for XDA forum. Oorah .... lol

This has been covered many times over the past few weeks here (days even). There are a set bunch of things you need to try, search for similar threads (try trawling through the last week's worth of posts rather than using search if search doesn't throw up what you need).

This **** sucks! No one seems to have a solid, 100% way of restoring the device. I've bene researching and troubleshooting for 2 days now, I've got nothing. There's no Download Mode, Recovery Mode only shows up occasionally, Flash Lg tool failed probably because I can't get into the actual Download Mode. If you find something Please let me know because I'm desperate!
Sorry I know I might be very late to reply but..
I followed these steps: (Stock LP, unrooted)
Disconnect the phone. Press and hold volume down. While holding down the button, connect it to PC. Keep holding the button till LED starts flashing
How did you fix your issue?
Hi guys,
Has anyone managed to fix their issue? I'm getting pretty much an identical error. I tried booting in safe mode but there was no such option...just factory reset. Hoping for this to be a last resort if possible.
Can anybody help?
Many thanks
