Having trouble rooting EA28 for a friend. Tried super one click, adb, and z4, all do not work. Is there an odin package or maybe something I can flash through CWM (that can be installed at the least). We want to be able to run titanium backup BEFORE going to froyo, so flashing ahead isn't an option untill we gain root on stock EA28. Thanks for any help!!!

If you got to adroidcentral, there is an all in one pack for eb01 froyo that is prerooted and comes with cwr. It is used with odin and pushed through pda. Has sc 2.6 packed in as well. Then you can backup if you'd like.
Don't know if that's what your lookin for, but it avoids having to take more steps to get you to froyo.

I want to backup everything through titanium backup first, then go forward, that won't work just yet (next step though ) but thanks for that fast reply!

If you want to backup your apps, try app monster. Workes for unrooted phones. Then you can flashed and root reatore with app monster then test, reflash to unroot, then restore again with app monter. Not sure what your tryin to test tho...best of luck.

Wait. Lol thought I was in the other post! Lol you can still use apl monster to back up your apps, then flash froyo then restore

Anyone know a simple and easy way to root my vibrant 2.2.1 froyo, z4root 1.3.0 didnt work for me....roms, kernals, all that stuff is way over my head, just need some clear and simple easy to follow instructions to root, any help would be appreciated

Super one click root.
Search on google, first link it comes to xda.
Use that. You need to have a computer though..
All you do is enable usb debugging connect usb click root it pushes update.zip to your phone
Then it installs super user app on your phone.
Then click test or something and on your phone superuser should ask for permissions
Z4root app
Simple..install the apk and root straight from your phone without need of usin usb and that

SuperOneClick works, but it was also the exploit in all those bad apps Google pulled and your pc will think it's a virus.
If you use the ALT METHOD in the noob guide you can have a leaked froyo+root, and then flash a custom rom or stock froyo + root.

Download biffmod and then the update file from clockwork recovery. Do the three button trick to get into recovery mode and hit reinstall packages. From there you can flash the rom.

Your better off going back to 2.1 and gain root access that way. But that's just me

I think you'll have to flash it through clockwork manager. Wipe for safety reasons
Well i tried clockworks and is says some error then aborted. I didn't wipe when i tried it through either cwr or rom manager. Should i have?

I am unable to mount my vibrant to Odin or any other program for that matter. I believe it is the port itself on the vibrant. It charges but won't mount. Since I cannot mount to Odin in download mode how can I flash to stock so that I can send in for warrant exchange? I'm running the latest pics passion rom. Thank you in advance.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
If I'm not mistaken you need Odin to get back to stock. Have you seen anyone else the your current rom's thread suffering the same problem?
Sent from my T959 using xda premium
Now another question for you! Prior to flashing your phone with the rom did you do a nandroid back up? If so just restore the phone that way. It may work.

You could try to flash one of these, "[ROM] OFFICIAL T-Mo Vibrant JFD ODIN/Nandroid Backup Images 7/29/10 (Tested/Working)"
Not sure if the links are working or not but worth a try.
I didn't make a backup such a novice move I know. Other than those there's no way?

I did that. I still can't get it to install. I've deleted everything except the backup for the old mms.apk and the new one still will not install. I've renamed the new apk from secmms to just mms.apk and nothing works.

What ROM are you trying to install the stock MMS? There are many ways to install an app but it has to fit the ROM too.
I was trying to install it into cm10.1 maybe I just can't install over the one they use

I think that you hit the nail on the head. The stock messaging app requires touchwiz I believe. Why not try a third party app like Handcent?
I guess I'm gonna have to try them again. I wasn't impressed the last time I use it but maybe it's changed

There is nothing in the stock app that handcent can't mimic.
