Sorry Noob here, I looked around and went to the SE site and it says to download Backup and Restore program so I do and after it downloads I get a screen saying for you safety non markets aps are disabled.
I want to upgrade to the 2.1 and saw the thread on how too, but I would like to backup everything in case goes wrong or something.
Any help would be appreciated
Backup and restore should be fine for all you're personal data, it worked fine for me. Some people prefer to use titanium from the market for apps as it doesnt distiguish between market and non-market.
I do have to say I did have a problem restoring data with b&r when updating to 2.2 but I believe there is a version of it floating around here that can fix that.
The only way to be totaly sure is to have your phone rooted and xrec and do a total backup through that.
So you're saying I have to root my phone? I'm new to the whole Android thing and very clueless.. Is there a download that roots the phone with one click?
Well what exactly are you trying to backup?

First root your phone, then install XRecovery and make a backup. If you follow the step by step instructions you cant mess anything up and even if you did everything could be easily fixed. Using the included backup and restore app wont allow you to restore to most upgraded FWs.

Basically I wan’t to upgrade to 2.1 since ATT isn’t releasing it. So I want to be able to back up everything incase the upgrade doesn’t go right or something. I rooted it, but I still can install apps outside the market such as SE backup and restore. I’m pretty much lost now

I have at&t also, trust me if you follow the instructions theres no way you can mess anything up. Thats the benefit of not having an unlocked bootloader, theres virtually no way to brick it or do anything that cant be fixed.

Backup and restore is useless, it wont restore between versions. Backup up your contacts and anything you can to your google account and you can always restore it. Theres no way you can backup app data between 1.6 and any other version anyways so just backup what you need and just flash it. Theres no reason to be intimidated, if you follow directions you cant go wrong.

I am here today because I need help. I want to root for 1st time ever, but I have a Mac. I hear about all of the great things I can do with my Vibrant after rooting but I am scared of trying this without a PC. Can anyone lead me in the right direction? Also lead me to the best roms. Thank you.
Well my first suggestion would be to get a PC
But seriously, you could always get a copy of XP somewhere (pretty easy to get for free), or a later Windows OS and dual-boot your system.
Or you could just dl Ryanza's lag fix from the market and root it that way.
You do not need a pc.
Download the file to your phone, put it on the root sdcard/ and go into stock recovery and flash it.
Afterwards, get rom manager and make a backup.
Flash a rom, bionix or eugene's
This is all in the general section sticky I made. EVERYTHING you need is there.

Take a look at this post. I would recommend you pull the latest version, su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip, from this thread instead of "SGH-959 Root Update.zip" from the 1st link.

I have taken your advice but my phone has only installed the Superuser app. I am scared that if I do anything else I will brick my phone. Is there a way to unroot it? I would like to try rooting again with the non PC version. Thank you
Download rom manager
Flash clockwork recovery
make a nandroid backup.
Now you have something you can always revert to.

Yes sir, that's exactly what you should have after successfully completing the process. To unroot from your device take a look here. View the Full thread (Page 1) to perform via adb. I don't see any reason you need to worry yourself about bricking. Unless your planning on testing kernels, ROMs, etc... If that's the case, make sure you read the entire thread before you make any decisions, and ask questions as it seems that most everyone here is willing to lend a hand.
search ryanza on market place. download the free version you can root and unroot from there simple instructions very easy to understand.
download rom manager (it auto installs superuser also) from market place also free download. that will allow you to make backups and restore should you encounter any problems.
also if your running OSX you can dual boot from Bootcamp windows, and if your running atleast a core 2 duo system you can dual boot windows 7/Vista 64bit.
A pc is needed for almost no modification when it comes to this phone.
I had to put effort into bricking my phone so you should be fine, just make sure if you have installed the OTA that any themes you install support the JI6 update. thats the only way i bricked my phone lol, and again that was a easy fix. Read read read so much to learn.
Thank you everyone for your help. I have succesfully rooted my phone. I think I will wait for the 2.2 OTA update since I hear that they are slowing coming around for the galaxy S phones. I want to try the bionix rom but I do not want to install it to soon and miss out on my chance to get the OTA update.
Hi, i am new in this forum so I may be like the noob you guys talked about in the first video, also i am not american so sorry for my english.
Yesterday i decided to play around with my phone, an optimus one with official rom froyo. I rooted it and then unrooted it because i realized that the official gingerbread room was out. After a few unsuccesful attempts of updating it from kdz (emergency mode, unplugged, took off battery, almost crying for my phone) when I turned it on it was okay, running gingerbread 2.3.3
I downloaded the rom from this website http://androidve.com/2011/05/como-instalar-software-original-en-lg-optimus-one-kdz-oficial-digitel-en-exclusiva/ and I thought everything was fine until the moment i realized that it wasn't what i expected. I wanted to install this rom because of a video I saw in youtube and i followed the link and it took me http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946354. I read the thread and some of its post and decided that i want that rom.
Now, i have gingerbread and i know it can be rooted in a way i dont know anything about, i want to learn it. But my question is... If i already have gingerbread, do i need to downgrade to froyo to install the cROM of mik? or can i do it directly from a rooted gingerbread? if it is possible, can you please guide me on how to do it or give me a tutorial? I already looked for them and actually found some of them but because of the incidente of the last day i am scared of trying this stuff alone and i would really aprreciate your advice.
Thank you. (Sorry for the essay :S)
There are already threads on how to do this. Also if you are to flash mik's rom then you have to flash old baseband since you have official gingy.

Man almost everyone on this site is rooted.... im just to scared of bricking my phone!
I was scared too, but after a few near-brick experiences i decided to give it a try. I even decided to go back to gingerbread with root because i wasnt able to call and all that stuff, and i was really freaked out when i was looking for a way to go back because my questions was not completely answered and i felt insecure. So i decided to give up for a while and then i realized i had made a backup from my ''gingy'' with the rom manager, and i thought it would restore my data and all that stuff but it actually took me back to gingerbread which was a relief for me.
Now that infiniterisen gave me the answer to my signal/service issue, i might try to do it again, because even though i was really scared while checking that i had no service, my android looked really cool and was smooth as baby skin
I cannot tell you to try to root it because if something goes wrong you would be completely free to blame me and because i am also new to this scene, but it is really cool and i personally like to try new stuff (even though i may cry if my O1 gets bircked)
hi i just got an atrix, switched over from jailbroken iphone.
I went through rooting it and installed rom manager but when i try to reset permissions i get an error and when i try to reboot into recovery it says "failed to boot 2 starting rsd" and hangs.
I just want to reset the phone to stock and start the process over, can someone give me some help on this....
Id like to install the ninja rom. but im lost about what order to do things, root, backup/nandroid, and install new rom etc.
thanks
First, it would be nice to know what was on the phone when you started? 1.8.3, 1.2.6 or 4.9.1?
Next, where are you trying to go? You installed the ROM Manager, does that mean you were going to try to use a particular ROM?
Probably more important, the ROM Manager is not fully compatible with the Atrix (see thread).
Before going forward, I would suggest reading (and re-reading) this thread about the bricking potential. Don't get me wrong, it is possible to add custom ROMs to your Atrix, you just need to be cautious.
At this point, it doesn't sound like your Atrix is hard bricked. However, to help out, we need a little more information.

you know to be honest im pretty happy with it out of the box... adding non-market apps would be nice and id like to be able to make full backups to boot from if i need to. id like to delete some apps i dont need.
it seemed like there was a problem with the rooting i did cause some stuff wasnt working like 'shootme' screengrab app and the permissions fixing wasnt working.

Enabling non-market apps is a built in feature for 2.3.4, go to Settings -> Applications, and put a check mark next to "Unknown Sources".
For rooting, try Gingerbreak.
For backing up, there's a CWM version that doesn't need an unlocked bootloader, but I am unlocked so I don't have experience installing it / using it.
Since most people are unlocked, I am not sure if the non-unlocked version of CWM was kept up to date, it might be obsolete / non functional by now.

Great idea to get a boy toy to do it for me, but I am married and he has no clue what to do on a computer
I actually do NOT know very much about what I am wanting to do, either but I have spent probably close to 100+ hours reading forums from various sites in the last few months trying to figure this out myself. I'm one of those that if I want something done I like to try to do it myself first! I have had a lot of fun trying to root, but now I am just getting very frustrated. Mainly I am getting aggravated that every time I try to download ANYTHING it almost always is a bad site or has viruses. Grrr.
For starters, which version of Android do you have installed? Go to Menu > Settings > About phone > Android version. (Is this an AT&T phone?)
Second, do you want to only root the phone but keep your current ROM and settings? Or are you wanting to install a custom ROM?
I am running version 2.1 with At&t and I am interested in using a new ROM, although, I will admit that I don't know anything about this or how to do it or which ROM I would even use.

http://www.unrevoked.com/#aria is a one-click root solution for Arias running 2.1. It will also install Clockwork Recovery, which is used to flash new ROMs. Seriously, it couldn't be easier.
Others might suggest you upgrade to 2.2, then use http://revolutionary.io/ to S-OFF the phone & install Clockwork. It's also a one-click solution, pretty easy to do but you do need to upgrade to the official 2.2 before you do it.
Either way you pick, it's really super easy, and you'll be amazed at just how much your Aria can do when it's set free. Mine just seems to get faster and more responsive with every update.

I just did that yesterday (I didn't have any choice as my phone came with android 2.2.2 and hboot 1.02 with S-ON) and evrythign went smothly, BUT clockwork that came with it did not work for me (I wanted to do a fullback before going further). I did follow the instructions on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1159237 CWM 2.5 and install su and that worked great.
I would recommend getting 2.2 over 2.1 since I beleive it gives you the option to move apps to SD card among other cool things (important since Aria has such limited ROM. After root, I used Titanium backup to remove all the ATT bloatware I wasn't using and went form ~6mb of free space, to 45mb, and stoped bunch of process that I didn't use from running.
Not sure what custom ROM I would want at this point... My wife HTC Incredible has option to install out any apps outside of market, and wish mine had this (evern though it is rooted, I don't see that settings)

If you're otherwise happy with the AT&T 2.2.2 ROM, you might want to try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970272. It's just a modified version of the AT&T 2.2.2 ROM. A few notable features are
it allows you to install apps outside of the market
AT&T bloatware has been removed
the annoying "AT&T" text that shows up on top of the notification bar when you press Home or unlock the phone has been removed
already has root (su)
Besides that, it's basically the stock experience.
This was how I rooted mine.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1159237
I would suggest updating to 2.2 then running root.
This link (above) also has ClockWorkRecoveryMod, Which allows for easy
ROM changes. You can also backup and restore to previous ROMs if you do not
like the one you are using.

No root. No recovery. No love.
I have a GSM Aria which I bought in Taiwan. I was getting ready to buy the XTC Clip to S-OFF my Aria with HBOOT 1.02, but I did another search and found Revolutionary. Yay! Thanks to the community for that.
Revolutionary throws no errors, but exits immediately after
Do you want to download (Internet connection required) and flash ClockworkMod Recovery? [Y/n] y
It appears nothing was downloaded. Rebooting the phone into HBOOT shows "Revolutionary!" implying that it worked, but choosing "recovery" leaves me with the normal HTC recovery -- no backup options or anything.
Userspace attempts to install ClockworkMod fail because I don't have root. Universal Androot fails to install root even though I have S-OFF.
I'm a little stuck and any advice would be helpful. This is going to be my first CM7 installation, and I'm not willing to do it without a backup.

OK I have a rooted Dx2 ver. 2.3.3 i need to send in my Dx2 for replacement but Verizon told me they won't unless i have the current vers. of GB 2.3.4.
To unroot there is an app in the market that will remove it completely, including all the symbolic links, its called Ginger Unroot.
Ginger Unroot did the trick, i re-installed all the bloat ran Ginger Unroot, but i missed unfreezing 2 files i think they were "update" and "updater".
So when i went to settings - about phone - System Updates, but it does not work.
So i screwed up now i just want to root the phone and if the files are still there, unfreeze the the 2 files and unroot again and d/l the 2.3.4 OTA.
Here's where i really need help i was going to use Gingerbreak to root but i found out it is no longer supported i think it is because i'm running 2.3.3
I have been searching for days on what to do and all i have found out there does not appear that a one click root does not exist.
I have heard that i might have to SBF back to froyo??
Can i do it on a mac?
i'm worried that i will need to do it on a pc.
Also what version of windows do i need to use?
If i have to SBF can i d/l the files and go to an internet cafe or kinkos and use a pc to do this?
Here's an example are the drivers for the phone or are they meant to be run on a pc, would an internet cafe or kinkos let me do this installing software on their computers.
*Install the necessary moto drivers*
* Motorola_End_User_Driver_Installation_5.1.0 32bit or 64bit depending on your computer's CPU architecture
First do you know if i do gain root again will the 2 files show up or have they been
deleted, gone forever.
If this is the only way, can someone tell me exactly what i need to do. I don't want to try to follow any posts because if im at a kinkos or someplace i can access a pc. i don't want to wind up getting stuck or not understanding something.
If i can get to a pc i see that you need to use terminal commands, if i have to do it that way i'll be lost and screw up something.
Please help i don't want to get to a place that i might not fully understand
In other words a Dumbed down set of instructions.
I'm not knocking forums but because of my disability i get lost and frustrated with all the info you can find. I really need to get any help from one person, i get very confused easly
Which method do you recommend/easies: It seems Wugfresh has a one click vers. which is still confusing. I have come across other posts on how to reroot which is making it nearly impossible to follow.
I have ADD and i'm ready to give up and hope i can tell Verizon it won't update and won't discover the 2 missing files, do you think if i just tell them it won't update, and having removed any signs of it was rooted, do you think i can get away with this "playing dumb" cus so far over the past 2 weeks i have gotten responses from my posts that don't help, i just get told to "see this post" and tell me to try this or that.
