Has anyone written up a start to finish root how to for native root yet? One with finalized known good steps.
There is no chance atm for root except if you install Uruk or something like that.
So if you want root, go into dev forum, and follow the instructions there.

Yeah, I see all the posts, but the info is spread out. Wondering if its all been compiled into one post yet. I remember reading the How to run natively thread and that some steps had been deemed un-necessary.

Post 1 has detailed instructions. A bit of caution here is that prior Linux knowledge is required

I know linux. I was just wondering, because a single sticky helps newcomers and keeps info consolidated.

What problem are you having? Your post just says you're stuck..... IMO if you can't figure out how to download/install APKs (let alone applications that are provided on market) then you DON'T need a rooted phone.
Here are direct links to locations for both of those applications rather than the androlib links provided in the other thread.

Install those and follow the directions in the thread -- funny how people complain that superoneclick doesn't work when this uses exactly the same payload.

Super one click does not work for your information.
And I understand how to have a rooted phone I was asking for help on how to root 2.1.
Shut up with your negative attitude and thank you very much for your helpful post.
And it is funny how you people think that when we ask for help on rooting that we are stupid.
And I didn't mean I was stuck on download .apk files. I was stuck on the first step with the commands and stuff...
I tried to run the adb file and it wouldn't work...

There are two guides on the topic, so you should have asked on one of them, and tried the steps suggested on the first page. People are still asking about it looping despite there being suggestions on the first page to overcome it.
Super one click works on 2.1.
Sometimes fails and does strange loops but after several tries it will work.

One more thing.
Why does my phone always restart when I connect to the USB?
My gtablet is on its way to me. Where do I go in this forum to find out how to upgrade the OS (which is what I have read that I need to do to make the gtablet really enjoyable). I will probably need step by step instructions. Thanks!
I'm new, too, but I'll tell you, this was a great post to start with:

One of the tricky parts will be to pick which ROM you want to use. There's no correct answer, there. Look through the developer's forum and pick one that strikes your fancy. Vegan and TNTLite are both very popular. I'm running tjohnsonjr's Gingerbread with Honeycomb elements in it - one nice thing with that is that I've had none of the market problems I've heard others complain about. There are a lot of other options, including a test version of the popular CyanoMod 7 (the Gingerbread release) with a lot of honeycomb elements especially for tablets.

Did you even click the link that Chadness provided or are you just trying to get your post count up? If you want to flash a new ROM then you should start with that link.

Your question was answered. Check the link provided.
Several suggestions.
Read up on the available ROMS before you make your choice They all have advantages and disadvantages.
Pick a ROM. Pick one that has been around for a while and is stable for your first time. Don,t pick prototype roms. Get comfortable with it before changing. If you want to try multiple ROMS. LEARN NVFLASH fisrt.
Print out the instructions and add check boxes to each step. The follow them carefully and be patient. Some of the reboots after flashing can take a while.

I did click the link and the statement about me trying to get my post count up is ridiculous and I really don't appreciate it.
I am new to this forum and looking for help. If you don't want to help me that is fine as others have responded in a kinder fashion.

I've had that guide up for the last week as I keep switching ROms tring to find one that works/I like. It is w very clear and well written guide. (especially that one step 6)
My Thunderbolt has the 605.7 firmware on it; what would be the best method to root it? By using the batch file or doing it one command at a time with ADB?
Rooting with ADB by following jcase's thread to the letter, is the safest and best way to root, bar none.
Adb is the best way to go and next time before you post in the developers section. PLEASE READ THE RULES AND POST IN Q/A. Its really not that hard.

Thanks for being helpful, much appreciated. Going to take care of this when I get home from work this afternoon.
I agree. I followed a 9 step guide on YouTube and it worked perfect. Amazing guide. Can't mess up.
I had the directions on here open, and watched the Youtube video on it. Everything went flawlessly.

I agree. Do a little research before you post questions. This forum is full of useful information!
ADB or quick root. I did ADB using a MAC. No need to install drivers and such so it worked out.

Link to drivers are broken
(GUIDE) Aria Superthread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881634) has a broken link. The drivers to root are on Megauploads taken down by the FBI recently. Is there a mirror or another place that has the drivers I need?
I've personally always had problems with the drivers on windows. Used the linux cd here:

Here you go: http://www.multiupload.com/2OFYWZFCCR
I think it´s the Unrevoked
Unrevoked is the best way but you need revolutionary first to s-off
search the forums for it
it will want to download Unrevoked anyways after it s-off
I found the revolutionary method and S-OFF to be the easiest.
.
Thread moved to Q&A due to it being a question. Would advise you to read forum rules and post in correct section.
Failure to comply with forum rules will result in an infraction and/or ban depending on severity of rule break.

Well, I created a text file that contains 5-10 rooting methods. The first two worked for me. The others work for other tablets.
Where would I post these?
So no body wants to help me.... great community.
hold on... a moderater that would know everything especially this could Move my thread in to a forum that had little to zero activity but yet he couldn't answer my question?
Well first off if you don't know this then you have not done your proper research on this site. Or you would know just where a guide goes. You would also know that posting a simple txt file would not be enough. Your best bet would be to make a guide thread and explain each and every root exploit that you have found. If it is just links to apps that root your device. Well those are a dime a dozen.
