How to root EA28?

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

Dark message app theme

Every phone I have seen in the wild that is running ICS has a dark look with colored bubbles. I just installed my second ICS ROM tiny umbrellas why don't I have this look? Do I have to install a theme for this look?
Thanks

Here you go.
I went ahead and zipped mine up for you, so it's flashable in recovery.
Just click install zip from SD card in recovery?

Yes sir and doesn't hurt to wipe dalvik and cache after, before you reboot.
But it's probably fine if you don't.
OK. I installed it. Its close, but no quite what I was looking for. Maybe if I find a pic I will post it.

This is the look I'm looking for lol.
Anybody have a theme to mimic this? Thanks

Get go sms pro and make your very own custom theme to match that. It's a free app and it's not to bad.

Is that very same theme available or do I have to make my own and it just comes close?
Sent from my ThunderBolt using xda app-developers app
I believe its the jelly bean SMS theme that I'm looking for.
Sent from my ThunderBolt using xda app-developers app
I don't know if that exact same theme is available for it or not but I know that you can make a custom theme that will be close enough you won't even know the difference.

How to prevent the update?

I keep saying no to the update but it still keeps trying to do it automatically. I put it in airplane mode but it still shows up. Does anyone know how to stop it?
I would like to know this as well because it's gonna update if I don't keep my eye on my phone

I deleted the checkinprovider.apk, cotaclient.apk, and updater.apk and the .odex files that go with them.
EDIT: It still wants to update
If you have a custom recovery it wont even install. so dont worry if you have one.
What will it do if I download it

It's the htcDm app that downloads the update
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Premium HD app
Once you download and defer install or choose to install it will it prevent it from asking again though? or will it continue? It's getting annoying.
What about removing the htcDm did that resolve anything?

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
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
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

Works perfectly fine for me and a whole bunch of other people. Some people have had to install the file, then boot to recovery, wipe caches, then reboot to see it.

You can also download the file, then copy it to /system/media and overwrite the bootanimation.zip file

Thanks guys for your help I appreciate but I just switched back to the s3. Nothing worked switching note 2 boot animation but used ROM toolbox lite on my newly obtained s3 and it worked without a hitch. (Scratches head) 0_o
