First thing you'll want to do is head over to the developer section and read the stickies and the instructions, familiarize yourself with Android and with ADB (I don't recommend 1-step-rooting). Make sure you're careful in what you're doing as deviation from the SOP may cause your new Thunderbolt to be as usefull as a rock. I promise you, if you take the time to read everything that's involved, the learning curve isn't as steep.
Im preety familiar with the whole android thing.. but is there a step in particular so i can root it in one shot.. can you email me please.. [email protected]
i see this going bad, lol
Lmao i just need some one not to talk to me in xda language. I rooted my last android took me like 1 month but i did it... Please at least help me out finding the correct drive for it...

Havu watched YouTube video

Is there any in specific??
I bought the TBolt on release date. I rooted it the day the exploit came out. I followed the directions as a total newbie to Android (albeit not to *IX).
I knew my way around a command prompt and a debugger (gdb), and I didn't copy/paste the commands because I'm OCD.
Nevertheless, having known nothing about android nor about "rooting" my phone, I found that everything I needed -- all the knowledge to complete the task -- was found right here on XDA. The directions to manually root your phone are so simple, really, that I could probablly teach a 10 year old to do it!
So I suggest just reading up, not try to take shortcuts, and ask questions that are relevant and not "sendz me a 1click rootz plzkthx".
You better just read up. What if you mess something up? Are you really going to get on here and wait for someone to fix it? Learn rather than ask for answers spoon fed to you.
ok ok.. let see if u guy can help me with this... i got the adb drive thing.. i did everything step by step and wen i go to the cmd and change directory it kicks me back to my users name.. i can give the link to the viedeo were im getting it from maybe u can help me.. And hey at least im motivating my self.. lol

why did you make another post with the same question as your last post. Why do you even need to root your phone? What do you hope to do once rooted? Spam the themes app section with more stupid posts? Honestly just be happy with the stock device, judging by the way you talk, refuse to search for any information yourself, and repeatedly beg for help, you are not ready to root. You are going to be the same guy spamming the dev boards for help after you have bricked your device due to lack of following directions. Its not a hard process, I only got into android last october and I have successfully rooted my Dinc, Nook Color( which was a beast flashing and whatnot in the early days when you had to dd a image, lol) an aria and my bolt. I never bricked anything, and I never felt the need to make a useless lazy post begging for help. The answers aare all here, stop being a lazy **** and READ. I am so tired of seeing total idiots on here needing help with root. If you cant be bothered to just follow directions, chances are you are going to screw something up. people like you are pretty much destroying XDA

Get an iPhone and give the Thunderbolt to someone who knows what they are doing and can form a sentence correctly. Then we don't need to go through with this.
ahh cut him some slack, i always encourage anyone, no matter what, to root their device and take control of what they paid for back from the carriers.
anyway just read the tutorials, it will be tested and safe, and just follow step by step.
also i pissed myself about dropping bombs on his phone!!
Ok i got recomended this forum if i need help. And im doing exactly that.. if you guy cant help me why even write stupid and noncense shi*. I didnt ask for no ones opinion. And i did got the iphone first but i was more familiar with the adroid. I've done read everything and i actually tried it last night. And the i had a problem with the ADB. And i rooted my intercept it was my last phone. So if you guys can direct me to another way other then that ADB I WOULD APRECIATED.

no...just no.... omg dude are you twelve, lol. You need to use ADB. Period. stop whining because you can't figure it out and if you do not find xda helpful, there is a little red x in the corner of your browser. Click it, I am sure xda will not miss you.
Wow you mad..lol i guess is not the adb im having problems with.. wen i put in the commands in the cmd it sends me back to my username.. thats my problem. And why do you guys keep insulting me, im just asking questions..
Ok lets start with the basics first. Do you have ADB installed? You say youre not new to the "whole Android" thing, so im gonna go out on a limb and assume that you know what ADB means. If not I suggest you GOOGLE it and find out what it means and then, download ADB and install it. Second off if your using Windows you need to know if youre on a 32bit or 64bit OS, OR if youre on linux you need to figure out what distro you have and install in through terminal (nemesis2all has a step by step thread on how to) GOOGLE will be youre savior.
Next after you install your ADB drivers you need head over to the Android Development section and look at the S-off/ Permaroot thread and read it step by step. Of course you need to check to make sure ADB is working correctly which you should have already done ie..
TYPE: adb devices
-list devices attached-
Follow the steps that are listed to a tee and dont try to skip anything.
There is a Thunderbolt fossnet channel where you can ask for help.
Your brother in law who has an EVO used a program called Unrev0ked3 which is a plug and click program that does all the work for you. With the thunderbolt, its all done manually, even the "one click" methods still require ADB use. In all honesty if you dont know ADB please leave youre phone alone. There are lots of great people on here as well as in IRC that will help but if youre going to be stupid and say you know things then come back 2 min later asking the same questions you won't recieve much if any help.
Do some research on rooting the Thunderbolt before jumping in, this phone is still very young in its developing stages and if you mess up it requires manual fixing.
PS: I apologize for the improper grammar, my girlfriend is waiting for me to come join her so I'm in a rush to get this typed.
very well said mr. obvious (lol hard to say that without sounding sarcastic...nice!)
just to add one thing, i used s/off permaroot method with very very very little adb knowledge and worked fine...just follow the steps exactly and instead of typing you can copy and paste each command one by one...makes easier and faster.
good luck

i really would appreciate a some sort of guide and some basic info. Since HTC allows unlock the boot, i am not sure about hwo that plays with the warranty and if there's any recovery. I would really appreciate if someone can have a good guide explaining some basic stuff like the process of getting the phoen to run custome rom (yes I know there are few but it would just be nice to have 1 with a bit detail and also mentioning a few of things we should watchout like warranty, etc).
also I really would appreciate a baisc maybe dumb step by step process with maybe a quick guideline for a newbie like me to follow where it's almost 100% fail proof to kind of test so one can get used to the whole idea of flashing custom rom
Con beat me again but there are plenty of stickies or threads people can read... the reason that there are so many questions is because people are either too lazy to read or dont look at the guides... so i think even if u made one people would still not read it
I'd love a noob guide! I have looked at some of the foolproof tools and they seem decent enough for me to get started with...
I'm a lifelong developer, but I am new to android, so it's just a matter of time before I dive in.. and once I'm in, i'll be thrashing around and hope to help out the dev's we got.
That being said... I'm literally one rainy weekend away from unlocking and getting started on all this (but that weekend is hard to find here in SoCal.. )

If you are a developer I don't know why your not diving in ... It's soo easy to do all the unlocking and stuff... I bet it takes less than an hour and that's just bc u have to wait on things to flash .... But what do I know I'm just an average Joe.
Sent from my Dinc... I mean Rezound
hahaha, tomorrow (wed) is suppose to rain, maybe it's a good day to get your hand wet
that would be great....i'm coming from a DX and OG Droid where i rommed and modded away. but the rezound has e scared to unlock/root. i ahven't touched anything yet and i really want to. i liked that i had the option to sbf back to stock if worse came to worse. i can flash anything i wanted to but could always go back to completely unrooted stock if need be.
So I'm totally comfortable with the HTC rooting and roming world, but Samsung looks like a whole different ballgame. No fastboot, everything done through Odin, etc. Doesn't look hard, just not sure where to start. Any suggestions on guides or tips?
thanks
You have GOT to be kidding me.... Your lazy arse didn't even TRY to search for one yourself...
There are also some other good reads. Any tutorial on xda will help you, could also try looking in the S2 forum.

Yeah, but I want more than just a guide. I want explanations for why things work the way they do. I get how and why things work the way they do on HTC. I don't want to just be following scripts clicking buttons, and then begging for help on the forums when I mess something up.
Thanks though, for the insults!

lol, ah come on calling you lazy isn't an insult
For that you could try looking in the S2 forum. I don't think anyone has written an extensive Odin guide for the S3 yet, but I think it's very similar, if not the same as the S2 (just a newer version).
Same process.
Researching and reading will enlightening you. Sorry, not name calling, this is actually part of XDA rules and etiquette, and no different here than HTC forums. Anything other than that would be lazy
As previously posted, check the SGS3 & SGS2 stickies. A wealth of knowledge users (Edit: and of course the Devs) have spend countless hours putting together.

Honestly there is not a lot to mess up. Odin is soo simple compared to what you have to go through on an HTC phone.
Could someone point me to the ultimate thread for this?
I know nada about rooting, and im also new to Android, and before i dig into to that, i need info on do's and dont's, advantages/disadvantages, what to look out for, and if the process can be reversed back to stock fw?

My bad, i should have mentioned that ive already used the notorious search button, which apparently leads to ALOT of DIFFERENT threads about the same topic, hence my question, "which is the ULTIMATE thread for noobs"
Im sorry, but I dont know which is the right thread and not, if i did, i wouldnt bother asking that question, would i?
In theory its just downloading a file, unzip it, connect phone to computer and execute, right?
http://youtu.be/vhSSmdqAXRM
However, after a long life, my experience is that it would be convenient to know more than just the action itself, cause there are always traps, which isnt always mentioned or described in those threads cause they take for granted that people who want to do this already know everything about it.
If there are risks involved doing it, like choosing the wrong vers, having the wrong bb etc, i want to learn and be aware of it BEFORE i attempt or even consider doing it, cause i dont want to brick my phone.
Unfortunatelly i have a daytime job, and not much time left for reading through endless threads and comments, thats why i addressed the experienced members in here that already know what im looking for, and can in his, or her way save me for reading all the stuff that i dont need to know, or are irrelevant in my case
Btw, i got a GT-I9300 with 4.1.2 - BB I9300XXEMB5
Dont mean to be rude, but sharing is caring, and i would love to help others in the same way sharing my knowledge, if i could, instead of just inform people about the search function... its getting old.
Im a little tired of all the wise guys in here sitting on their horses pretending to know everything, but isnt willing to help or share in a nice way, instead just being arrogant in a patronizing way.
I can assure you, if you threat people more friendly, people will show more gratefulness in return, and if you dont, u get ungrateful speaches like this in return instead
A good atmosphere is much easier to achieve if you include people, rather than exclude them....

there is no "right thread" and they are all full of various things you could do with knowing. there are a lot of people who come here expecting a quick and easy "which is the ULTIMATE thread for noobs" - there is none, they're all relivant.

unfortunately, i also have a day time job (oh what a chore hey?) most of the people, including the devs and the more experienced members here have jobs too, i doubt they all came here with instant vast knowledge on how to flash and all of it's woes, i also doubt they just came here and asked someone to pick out all the best bit for them. I bet they read all the posts, dammit they made the posts, the roms you will use, the rooting procedures. everything on here - for you to say "save me for reading all the stuff that i dont need to know, or are irrelevant in my case" is just being ignorant, as i've said everything is relevant, it seems that you want to know everything and share the knowledge but don't want to read about it - it's the only way to learn
Btw, i got a GT-I9300 with 4.1.2 - BB I9300XXEMB5

how do you expect to share knowledge, if you don't read all the info and just get told what you want to know?
Im a little tired of all the wise guys in here sitting on their horses pretending to know everything, but isnt willing to help or share in a nice way, instead just being arrogant in a patronizing way.
i'm pretty sure all the "wise guys" on here are fed up with noobs (I by the way, still consider myself a noob) coming here and asking for things to be given to them on a silver platter! we/they are not being patronizing or arrogant, they are simply telling you to do your research - just like they did.
I can assure you, if you threat people more friendly, people will show more gratefulness in return, and if you dont, u get ungrateful speaches like this in return instead
i think you meant treat not "threat" oh and thanks for the assurance . i'm sorry you are being ungrateful just because someone (I) told you to read up! - it's probably not the best way to get help when you refer to the members as "wise guys" "sitting on their high horses" "being arrogant in a patronizing way" - that's how you portray friendliness?

I'm sorry you feel the way you do, but i'm not being an A$$ - i'm telling you that what you need to know is all in those posts.
i'm done :laugh:
Of course mate, i didnt expect you to read for me, lol, but i was hoping to get pointed to the "most relevant" thread about what i wanted to know, and probably one single thread would be more than enough info to read up.
Forums like these are getting out of proportions after some years, and sometimes impossible to navigate through, and why shouldnt i be allowed to ask for help or shortcuts? Who made up that rule?
If i had been here two years longer than you, doesnt mean i need to hold back any info cause i had to learn everything the hard way, instead i would gladly at least guide people in the right direction.
Ive been in allot of different forums over the past years with different kinds if subjects, but never a forum like this where people are so grumpy and very little welcoming and including, there are no "welcome to the forum buddy, i will try my best to guide you in the right direction"
Eventually one will find the way on its own, but sometimes its nice to be lead onto the right path.
I totally agree, and i ALWAYS try to find the answers im looking for through the search function before i ask, but when i stall, i post in a friendly and humble way like i tried to in my original post.
If all the answers to your questions was to read through every topic, there would be vert little activity in here, but then again, maybe easier to browse through.
A forum where its "stupid" or not "allowed" to ask questions is to me more equal to Google... yea, Google is your friend, but sometimes you wish to know more spesific things...
And thanks to you too, im not rooting my phone, cause im not able to find the proper info im looking for... and gives me one more reason to get back to my "boring" Iphone again... but hey, life goes on anyway... :good:

I don't want to sound arrogant or anything and I am always happy to help, but if you do not find the guide for rooting... it seems you didn't follow the advice given to you in the posts earlier.
That are stickies in the general section which will help you to understand the basics of rooting, flashing etc. And in addition you have tons of YouTube guides out there.
Hence I wish you good luck, anything is out there for you to learn and share later on, just a little bit of effort is needed to get there.

Finally someone who understands where im going with this, thanks... And that was the intention with this thread, to get a pointer to the one or maybe two or even three or four threads that covers the most essential things... I dont know whats essential or not (yet), i can surely read dozens of how to's but i still dont know if its the right solution for my phone and the vers i have.
A bit like jb an iphone, just download this and do that... "oh, you had that bb vers" "thats the only one thats not compatible with this vers" sorry u bricked your phone.
But it feels like its just, if u got the balls, or know everything about it, just do it, or everything is at your own risk, its a hit or miss thing...
I dont think i will root my phone after all, cause there are so much info on how to do it that differs from eachother, and nobody cant seem to tell which thread is the right one for MY phone...

Sorry you are wrong a day or two actually reading the basic faqs and guides is the starting point that you don't want to start with .This is after all a developers forum that has no place spoon feeding those that dont want to learn .
Their is no best the basic stickied faqs and guides all say the same as do the instructions for each method .
The confusion lies in answers to posts like this where xx say this way is best and b say no use x .Unfortunately due to multiple same posts it is not that easy to navigate the forum but the answer to that is for noobs to bother reading the facts and guides before posting repetitive questions .
I would in your case read the instructions and use CF Root method .

Look for cf auto root if you don't want recovery to be stock. Use cf root if u want the custom recovery. To all advanced user out there, correct me if I'm wrong.

Helloo people.. I am new to this community.
i wanna root my piece and install a rom and get to a new world of android customization.
ne1 help me with procedure ??? from start to End. As i dont knw mch abt rooting and in a learning process.
Details would help a lot mate. Go to phone settings then about phone. Don't need imei so don't post that. :thumbup:
We also need you to search
Root procedures has been covered hundreds if not thousands of times across the internet. So finding a good root method isn't going to be hard if you search.
But andrew is right, we still need more information about your device (settings>about phone) to get you into the right direction..
If you're unable to search for & find the info you need given how often this has been discussed here over the past two years (easily the two most discussed topics), you'd probably question whether you should be messing with your phone in the first place.
'ne1 help me with procedure ??? from start to End. As i dont knw mch abt rooting and in a learning process.' - will lead to a busted phone if you 'do' before you learn 'how' & 'why'.
Spoonfeeding this person the info they want because they provide the info in settings/about phone is ridiculous. The default response to threads like this should be 'Search', not 'Do A, B, C, D & E'.
How about you hold on for my next response before jumping the gun and guessing I'm going to "spoon feed him" when have I ever spoon fed anyone? He says what hes on and il tell him what kernel to use. Down to him to work out how by reading like I would and have put loads of times. Why you being funny with us for? You should no my response by now Mb
Mistahbungles advice will stand the OP in good stead.Its not a problem him being a noob,as The Hulk has got a thread running in the general section.
He is welcome to go there instead of creating crap topics like this that have been covered loads of times.
He is wanting to know everything without doing a lot of the spadework himself.

That thread is for after you root and outdated. I'm sure Rom manager will stuff your phone if you flash with that. Lets lead the op in to the lions den. Next thing will be use getril.
Lol pm the hulk and moan to him.And a 2 minute search,and 2 minutes of action will get him rooted.

Lol moan!!!! No not moaning at all. Dont give bad advice,its not the xda way. Rom manager is a joke. that thread is well outdated you should no better than to post a link to that. That could put him in a world of pain.Post helpfull things. Iv bin reading lots of your posts and I'm sure the mods are too. Shame cuz I bet you could help loads but choose not to.
Well....it is clear that the OP needs to search.

Don't spoonfeed people the two most asked/answered topics on here ever; that's the XDA way.

I thought we was all cool with each other. Spoon feeding is not done here we all now this and I don't understand why we like this at each other. I have the upmost respect for you Mb your a good bloke and has pointed people in the right direction like was going to. Also gastonw I have respect for you too. I'm just tired of the "use search" posts. If a mod feels like I'm out of order pls pm me.

Maybe people are tired of people joining here,and instead of searching,wanting links and step by step instructions of how to do things.
Maybe these same people get a bit annoyed when they try to follow the rules and other people dont.

I understand were your coming from. But I haven't spoon fed. I thought we was a bit like a family on q and a trying to help and point people were they need to go. Guess I was wrong
Pls read my first post. I asked for details of his phone thats all. I even said thanks to the next post for saying use search before any one reply. He got were I was going I think. Find out his details and point him to right kernel. I feel like crap cuz of this thread now and I did nothing wrong. I to respect you theunderling.
You do what you like andrew but the guy will only end up relying on you rather than finding out and learning for himself.
Also,if you advise him about something you could end up getting him in a right mess.That wouldnt be your fault but his.
Eg.
If he flashing something and he loses his efs,or odin doesnt recognize his phone,or he doesnt back up and loses valuable stuff.
You see,are you meant to warn him about all the risks beforehand.As T has said,he should search before doing anything as it will be the OP that will end up with problems.
I could hang around and just post "search" all the time but I cant be bothered.
Maybe the regulars on here can say what Ive advised before
"Before flashing anything,read the threads in q+a to give an idea of problems with flashing.Do it for a week since just about everything is covered".
That maybe a more polite way of saying "search",but better to get straight to the point.

This is why I point out the kernel or rom to be used but then say read. Iv tested loads for people on xda and no how to put it Bk to working mode but I get your point about relying on me had that a few times in Pms and it does do my head in. I just like to help too much I think. Your point is noted.
