Hey there. I'm new here and have a rooting question as the title illistrates. I just recently bought an HTC Droid Incredible 2. I already updated to 2.3.4 Gingerbread. So my question is, can you root the phone with the update or not?
a quick search says yes. go check out the DInc2 subforum.
When I search for this phone I see that it is possible to root.
See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1068236
When you will put in a custom ROM you will gain ROOT access most of the times automaticly as most custom ROMS have already ROOT access.

Hey guys I am a android newbie got a Neo V recently..I would like to use Titanium backup/brightness hack to move most of the apps to SD Card, and read that requires root..
Is rooting perfectly safe? cuz am not really interested in going beyond the stock SE Rom or anything?
And if I get any future SE official device updates, should I unroot the device before installing new updates or the root can be left as it is??

I'm also rooted and on stock and it still has many advantages. It's easy if you have an unlocked bootloader, else I don't know.

I dont want to unlock my bootloader, I am not looking to install custom roms or anything..
Can anyone else answer my question above, and can I follow this to just root my phone?? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321582
Root it using the zergrush method (rooting doesnt remove the warranty) its very easy and no need to unlock the bootloader , then just get app2sd or similar to move the apps to SD.
After rooting you can do many more things like removing carrier apps, move apps, supercharge, etc.
I'm actualy a proud owner of this AWESOME RAZR ... which i buyed from SFR, so it has a Modified Vodafone ROM.
System Version : 651.73.18.XT910.Vodafone.en.FR
My Problem, I think this rom isn't complete at all ... Since i saw it has a modified settings interface, and theses obvious useless apps ...
So, I've got myself a bit informed about how to root the RAZR, but i still have 1 question ... Is it possible to root my device, making a backup of the rom actually installed on my device, get a retrail rom, root it, saving the root, update it, and restore the root ? =)
(And sorry for my english, as mentioned before, i'm french =/ )

To my knowledge, yes to all of those questions. You'll find more in the "Development" section.
Hi all, I got xperia p for my girl (I use sgs2), it is a great phone, but I would like to root it and get rid of those useless aplications. And possibly to put some rom to make longer life for battery. Rooted my sgs2 but it was long ago so if anyone has experience abd time to guide me via skype or something step by step to root xperia p I would be very thankfull.....
Your question belongs in the Q&A thread mate. And regarding root, you need to unlock the bootloader to root the P, for now. Why would you anyway want to root it when you aren't using it? Your girlfriend might find it harder to deal with the root issues then.
Whel to gain more battery as now you can't uninstall some of the useless applications that are running in the back. And I use it sometimes, the camera is amazing so.... I had no issues when I rooted my SGS2, it stayed the same, only you can remove useless apps by titanium backup... So I'm just looking for a good person to help.
As I said, there's no root now for the P for locked bootloaders. You need to unlock the bootloader. And try disabling some apps from Settings->Apps to improve performance.
Wow, I cant believe there is no way to root xperia..... I thought android is android.... Hmmmm... so there is no way to put another rom lets say ics or better gingerbread?

Hi guys
I have an I9305 which was on T-mobile before I had the phone unlocked so I could use my giffgaff sim. All is well, I can use the sim no problem and have done for about 8 months.
My query is regarding rooting...
I have Super SU installed on my phone but when I open it I get the binary code problem message. I downloaded a root checker which tells me my phone isn't rooted. To be honest, I don't care whether it is or not. All I really want is to be able to update my phone with official updates and still use my giffgaff sim. First of all, do we still get updates using a giffgaff sim? Is kitkat available yet? I'm still on 4.1.2.
So...rooting. How do I remove any remnants from the root which was apparently there (and still be able to use my giffgaff sim)? I was told the phone had to be rooted to unlock it. Or how do I go about rooting the phone in a safe way? Is there official kitkat versions available for this model that I can flash?
Thanks in advance for any constructive advice.

You have posted in the wrong forum, ask a moderator to move it to the i9305 q&a section. You also appear to be missing some basic knowledge, best go and read the sticky threads in general forum.

NO official KITKAT
After Root you can use your Sim as before!
To easy root, open Google and copy and paste this: "cf-auto-root-m3-m3zh-gti9305" (without quotes!)
