Rooting w/o O.C.L.F. ?? Help please - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok guys im no noob but I did get spoiled with the one click lag fix. And one click root. I had my phone all flashed out and running super smooth and super fast, and then it was stolen last week. I just got my new one and was sad to see that the rooting option was removed.from the app. I tried a method I foumd in the forums but I couldnt get it to root. Kept getting an error when I hit "reinstall packages". So any help or useful tips would be much much appreciated! I gotta get rooted again, im having flashing withdrawls!

Did you try re-downloading the one click root file?? May have a corrupted file and usually you can redownload and it should work fine.

yes.i have downloaded it 3 times, I am just missing something stupid, I know it. But im going to try it again. It can't be this hard

If you go to unlockr.com (oneclick rooting android) they have a nice rooting video on how to do it. Oneclick has a later version 1.5.5 depending on what you are running you may need later version. The video is step by step

Yeah google made them remove the root option

If your on eclair, not sure why you would be having an issue... Did you read the noob guide?

Thought I'd take stab at it....USB debugging enabled?

... And to goodvibrant. Should it be on or off?

You'll want to enable usb debugging when using the one click root app.
Before connecting the phone to the pc enable it in the menu. From home hit menu button> settings> applications> development and check usb debugging.

[Q] 2.3.5 Stock Browser User Agent Help.

Anyone come across a modded stock browser yet? I'm using Villain Rom 3 which is based on stock 2.3.5. Any help to get back to one with user agent switching would be much appreciated.
You could always type about:useragent in the address bar to change it. Not as convenient as going to the settings menu but its an idea for now.

wait till pulser puts it in the VR tweaks...or download the vrtweaks apk from the opening page and surely it should be in there if he had the time to add it
Yes tried to wait patiently for it to be added to vrtweaks but failed ;-)

dont try and be a smartyass like i did and try it yourself...cause i did and ended up losing my internet on the phone...followed the guide and everything but to no avail. then i read in the thread there are a few problems with regarding the mod to get on the rom and Pulser was going to have a look..
Now i dont know if its there now but drop a message on his thread and see what they say...always wait till the dev puts the tweaks in the rom or his apk app..unless you know what your doing then go ahead

[Question] how to remove superuser

Just updated my phone and I forgot to remover root first. The phone works fine but superuser is still there and I can't uninstall it, I tried using the script but no joy. I don't use many root apps so its a bit pointless being there.
Thanks

Use Mattgroffs razr utility. It allows you to unroot. But there really is no point in removing it as it wont effect the phone. The only reason you would really need to have it gone is if you had to turn your phone in for a replacement.
Is mattgroffs utility different from doomlords? I wanted it gone just on the off chance something does go wrong, no point having it on my phone of it its rooted.
Thanks

I have never used doom lords so I would say they are different.

Installed the chimera 3.0 an hour ago beautiful no glitches had the GPS lock in below 30secs haven't tried it after deep sleep will try and post it in a couple of hours .
And GPS is working fine after deep sleep but you need to look immediately after reboot and then you will be able to lock after deep sleep no problems what so ever

Go to team-passion. com website and download

I'm going to hold my tongue here and simply reply: "I'm not going—nor plan—to install Chimera v3, or any Team Passion ROM for that matter."
However if you want a link to Chimera or any of TP's ROMs, you can find a link via the Vibrant Bible's ROM section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33906865... or you can look at their website.

Nice one N00B, way to throw the plug in there....lol
???
Installed it few days ago. However, I am experiencing some touchscreen issues in S8 games. Basically I can only tap on buttons only once, wait for screen refresh, tap again. While under Chimera 2,2 ICS I could tap 10+ times before screen refresh. Not sure if it's an issue with the ROM or the apps.
how you do dat

I know this is not my device forum. Just found this thread when I searched "Chimera 3.0 installation".
I am dying to try it, when I attempted to install I got a "status 7 installation aborted" something about the wrong build prop. for my device which is an I727R. Just wondering which recovery you guys used and where you found that version? I am assuming it's the same version(Chimera-3.0) that I flashed, the link for which is posted at the end of the skyrocket Chimera thread. Any feedback would be appreciated.

That's normal if you didn't create it, it doesn't mean your phone melted or anything. Proceed as normal.

But its not saving a back up for when I want to go back to my original Rom!. I even tried to go to restore or flash Rom from sd and there nothing there. If its normal were is my backup saved at for when I want to go back to what my phone has now before I flashed a new Rom?
