Hello,
My girlfriend has this phone on the 3 network and hasn't received the OTA update released a few days ago.
Could someone provide a link to the correct file needed to flash and the correct hboot? I have had a look but there's a fair few different version and I don't want to mess it up.
I have previous experience with flashing and using adb so I'm just looking for a quick guide to follow.
Much appreciated for any advice
Andy.

Hello all! OG Evo user here, I have been given the task of rooting my boss's phone.
My first obstacle is that I see three different 'android development' sections. Galaxy S II, Galaxy S II original, and I9100S (might have got that wrong, I'm on my phone!). I see no stickies that explain this.. is it carrier specific? She has US Cellular. This leads me to my next question.
Does her carrier matter? I don't need some sort of US Cellular specific file do I? Not flashing any roms, I just want root so we can clean up her system and tether.
Last question, is clockworkmod recovery worth two craps on this phone? Cause on the OG Evo it's worthless. The only ones worth using on my phone are AmonRA and variants of it.
Thanks guys!

First thing you do is look at the sticker on the chassis of the phone under the battery & report the details back here. We don't do/tell you anything until you've done that.

Ok cool, what am I looking for? Just post everything it says?

Yes. All of it.
Reason being, I'm not going to be the person who tells you to do X assuming you have SGS2 variant A when in fact you have SGS2 variant B & doing X could brick the phone (I'm using X, A & B as examples; they're not literal).

Specifically model number. On US Cellular I suspect the model is SCH-R760.
Ok I will check it when I get the chance this week. Thanks guys!

If all you're shooting for is root access, try Superoneclick. Always worked for me.
You need to have ADB on the 'puter and the phone in debug mode.

One more thing. If I'm right about the model, then definitely don't flash anything from this forum, as this is the forum for the i9100, which is a different model phone
OK I been trying to see if anyone in the US has been updated to ICS through OTA at all or even kids. I hope to hear from anyone who has and thanks in advance.

I'm having problems with this too man.
Ok i got mines as well was just wondering i know many are having issues trying to download it so far everyone i spoke to has been able to update using kies

I installed a british ROM instead of waiting for OTA in US and rooted my GT-p7510. Now only hoping for a modded stable kernel for overclocking.
Can someone with a back up of the their Telus stock rom please post it here or give me a pm with a db link I'd be greatly in their debt.

I tried a different number of methods to deliver the files to Steve but my cwm backup didn't work and simply copying /etc failed.
Unfortunately, I switched to a new, stock hox+ (doa) so I won't unlock it for awhile. Sorry guys.

I purchased a htc one x + EVARE_UL. Where can I download RUU rom for it?
Could someone please send me a nandroid backup of their telus stock? Or point me to a telus RUU? Thanks.
anyone still have a copy of stock telus or a link to the RUU? plz and thnxs
Hey just wanted everyone to know where they could find the stock RUU for the rezound. I've been searching for a week now and finally found a good link. This is not the global RUU. This is the one that use to be on android police but was taken down when htc started cracking down on everything. Hope this helps someone and hopefully the mods dont take this down but if they do sorry for posting.

I gave you that link in your other thread, if that's what you mean by you "finally found" it.
I read in a post in the Q&A that someone just downloaded the global RYUU from Android Police and I just clicked through to be sure before coming back to report here and at least one of the mirrors is working now. They seem to have re-allowed the downloads once it was made clear that HTC was just concerned about that one site that had their logo and name on it.
Well Damn. That's my mistake lol. I used the zip you have me but I never clicked the other link bc you said it was the global ruu and I already had that one. In any case thanks a lot just a misread on my part

Hello. I have never rooted a device before. I have done some browsing around the forums, and there are so many ROM's and s off's and on's that I have no idea where to begin.
Can someone recommend me which ROM to get and point me to a step by step guide on how to install it? I mainly just want to be able to tether my phone by allowing it to be a wireless access point.
I of course have the DROID DNA. I did read something about not updating b/c the new updates are unrootable, but I think the phone did update .
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Edit: I do have version 1 of the firmware available.
Go to settings, about, software information and tell me your software version. Its either going to be 1.15 or 2.04 iirc.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
As far as I know, you can't root/unlock the current official firmware. You can check what version you are on in settings/about phone. If its 2, you will unfortunately have to wait.
As far as s-off, all it does is make it easier to flash custom kernels, and easier to hard brick. Don't s-off unless you know what you're doing. Of you don't know, you don't need it.

He's probably talking about where can he check for updates on unlocking on the ota. My answer is really no where. There really isn't much info on it besides that it's being worked on and when and if they get it, it will be released but there isn't like a progress forum or anything. When it gets figured out they will either post a new thread or add to the thread that has the old method.

Ok, so I got a DNA with the version 1 firmware.
What do I do from here? I just want the ability to use my phone's wifi tether. I don't care about the ability to overclock the processor, though it seems pretty much any ROM with super user will let you do it anyway I guess. Also, I want to get rid of all the bloatware. The phone only has 16 GB memory and only has 11 GB available. I don't need Kindle app or any of that other crap on the phone. What else is there that I need to look out for in deciding which ROM to use? Do you guys have 1 to recommend?
I really appreciate everyone's help.
Bump for help.
I'm trying to follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012346 but can't get passed the 1st step of using the CID app.
