My friend got a Thunderbolt, he wants to root. I'm gonna help him since this is his first Android, but I seen recently something bout an update coming out for it. Should he wait till after the update to root?
Any update that comes out, im sure the developers here will have a work around to install it even if you are rooted. To be honest they may even have the update before its officially released to the public. I know i use to get early updates all the time on my OG Droid, even while rooted.
I wouldn't recommend it. Normally I would root as soon as possible then developers will have the root ready update in quickly. If he waits for the update he might find that root has been patched (knock on wood)

You should be hesitant about using official upgrades -- for example with the Evo 4G -- an official update can patch holes that make rooting possible. If I were you I would root immediately and wait for the XDA devs to bring you any updates (aka gingerbread) that you are interested it. CM7 is Gingerbread already so once the kernel source is released by HTC you will be all set to upgrade the TB to an official CM nightly. I am by no means privy to any special information but I would expect a near-perfect build of CM7 for the TB within 2 weeks.
The only thing that might not get baked in right away is 4G support. Granted this would suck but it wouldn't be a deal breaker IMHO. I've heard that 4G support for the TB will be much quicker than 4G support for the EVO. So even LTE support shouldn't take that long.
I'd root now to at least have s-off in case the start changing up

I would go ahead and root now to make use of better battery life from debloating etc.
I would keep an eye on news of ota updates from Verizon vs. Any devs who are getting close to an one-click method for rooting like z4root. Rooting this device still isn't very easy. Lots of people are struggling with even the simplest methods.
Thanks for all the replies! Going to help him root it some night this week.
I would advise your friend he should read up on rooting and make sure that's what he wants to do. If he's not on the forums himself, he probably is not very skilled with rooting and roms, and if you bust his phone, he will not be happy. Make sure he knows the full benefits and disadvantages before handing you his new phone.
Got it back 2 months later from rma status. I barely remember what this thing looks like. Wow can't even believe I have it after so long. So I'm on 21 it seems. Is this the latest?? If so, is 21 rootable? I'm at the point that I don't care anymore. I'll probably have less problems just doing a rom for gods sake.
.21 isn't rootable. either unlock it with the asus tool or roll back to .15.
welcome back, i know the feeling.
Thanks....ive been looking for a downgrade guide to 15, no luck. Dev section maybe?
i think the rollback thread is in the OG transformer threads
rollback= downgrade....

Here you go:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626190
If you root and/or unlock...be sure to try jermaine151 AOKP. He left XDA so you won't find it here.
It's arguably the best custom ROM for our Primes....and the last few updates are super stable. Also, if you have ANY problem he will work with you as long as you need. He also has a Cornerstone build of AOKP too. (Check your PMs)
There's also a custom build prop that you can swap into your /system folder for better performance and battery life....YMMV. It's under Dev section.
Good luck and have fun....our Primes are STILL the top dog Android tabs. Next closest thing is the Transformer Pad 300, but that's just our lil brother
Any more questions just ask. I've done it all so far on the Prime and I'd be glad to help.
Thanks guys. Yah I thought I saw that link and I read through it. Step 2 I'm assuming would be me, but seems risky for bricking. Almost seems better to just unlock and call it a day and then hope that nothing else hardware related takes a dump.
Runnin the C3 model, so things are better at least.
So is it possible to downgrade,root,install recovery and flash a rom without unlocking?

Nope, you need to be unlocked to install a custom recovery and rom
Well I unlocked, and followed a particular guide here. Thanks to whomever wrote it, it worked great. Now running Virtuous. It was a breeze!
I realize that the tester phone was loss from f**king Sandy, but I'm hesitant to possibly get this device in the next month or so. I maybe giving my Dinc2 to my dad to use on consumer cellular, that if it will work. I still need to call Verizon and get the unlock code. Anyways, I really want the device, but I'm hesitant because it seems that progress has been stalled because of the test device. Do we need to start a new thread to raise money for a new test device? Just curious? I don't think I'm asking for OTA because I don't mean too. Just a concerned flashaholic.
Shoot I'll test all day idc about a test phone. At least we have root I was dying on stock. S-on isn't too bad just a little more of a pita and I did learn how to use adb. I'd pick it up if you can keep unlimited data I'd pick this phone up.
There is no guarantee that S-OFF will ever come, unfortunately.
Also, even if I still had the tester phone in hand right now, it wouldn't make a difference. I was recently told that "time is an issue", hopefully a tester will be called upon to finish the testing, and see if S-OFF will be possible for public release. Sorry that S-OFF is keeping you away, but honestly I don't understand it. If we didn't have root then I would agree with you, but having root/HTC Dev unlock is the next best thing. So you have to flash kernels separately, not too big of a deal IMHO. Yes, S-OFF is obviously what we'd all like to have.

Several people have already volunteered to be testers for the DirtyRacun tool. Unfortunately, it seems that unlimited.io team has a booked calendar right now, and we need to wait a bit more.
Like andybones said, we do have dev unlock/root with an excellent rooting guide and even a tool to semi-automate the process.
I too want s-off, as there is a nifty utility already developed and tested for this phone, but it requires s-off before it can be used/released.

Do you by chance have a link for the root in question? I've searched high and low for a root guide for this phone, however the best I can find is some sort of toolkit on Windows. I don't have Windows... just Linux.

Hi all - just signed up. I'm receiving my 10 Monday. I have an Infinity and wanted to give the Nexus 10 shot as it seems like a great tablet. I'm not likely to root either one. Is there anything you all suggest to get the most out of the Nexus 10? I'm fairly new to the tablet world although have owned an android phone for several years.
Thanks!

Sounds like quite a few people are unlocking / rooting and leaving the stock ROM which is likely what I will do. I like having the freedom that Root provides to install some apps etc.
Nexus 10 will be my first tablet also, so I'll be having quite a bit of fun for the first few weeks figuring out how exactly I will be using it

From what I've gathered, and from experience, I think the benefits of Root give the user a great deal more control of what goes on with his/her device -- that is, in part, what apps are accessing resources. For example, with my HTC One XL, I was able to install an app (which requires root access) that allows me to freeze apps while they are not in use -- launch them to unfreeze and use them when I need but when I'm not using, they aren't going to automatically run processes that drain my battery. I also installed a custom Kernel, and there is a root-required app that allows me to adjust my CPU frequencies and voltages to maximize battery life and performance.
I am relatively new to rooting devices, as I started in late October, but I can tell you that I have had a ton of fun doing it.
In any event, I really dont think rooting is that valuable to mainstream users if you ask me -- If you aren't looking into flashing custom ROMs or using special utilities/apps on your device then I wouldn't bother rooting/unlocking bootloader.
Since you asked risks I'll address that too: The risks are bricking (completely unusable) your device if you flash an incompatible ROM, but this is easily avoided by sticking only to flashing ROMs for the Nexus 10. You can also damage the components of your device if you overclock too much etc....Other risks are that ROMs are buggy sometimes despite the very hard work of the devs here (They are truly amazing here) but the bugs may take away from your experience potentially. There may be plenty of other risks but these are the ones I can think of so far.
I was completely unaware of root/unlock up until about 2 months ago and was completely new to the process. I was able to read great guides put together by the XDA community here that walked me through the process and I was successful in unlocking my One X and I now finally feel like I am getting the moneys worth out of my device that I payed good $$$ for.

Rooting is quick and painless if you use the Nexus 10 Toolkit available in the development section! My Galaxy Nexus also has a toolkit from the same dev, makes things SO much easier/quicker.
The risks of rooting are almost non-existent. Really, if the procedure doesn't work for you, nothing changes & you just won't have root permissions. I've personally never had anything bad happen, but I'm sure there is someone out there who has tried some sketchy method to root...the methods here are far from that, just read up and follow the instructions.
Benefits are basically the freedom to remove system apps and make backups of any of your apps. There are also a ton of root apps that allow you to customize your device the way you like it. With root, you get full control and the freedom to tinker.
Nexus devices are absolutley meant for consumers who don't root or unlock, but what is great about them is if you want to do either of the latter..it is much easier to do.
Also, I suggest you try and personally compare your N10 and Infinity before you read any of the general comparison threads. lol
Oh and welcome to the vanilla side of Android! :good:

Toolkits are a nice method for rooting for beginners, but (imo) it's better to learn how to flash (and do generally other stuff) without the need of a toolkit.
When I rooted my Nexus 10, I just unlocked the bootloader (manually with fastboot), restocked, installed custom recovery (TWRP; fastboot) and then flashed a SuperSU CWM-flashable package from recovery. I did a lot of messing around with flashing and stuff on my SGT7 and Nexus 7, so this wasn't really anything new or difficult at all. I started out with a toolkit on my Nexus 7, and found it very annoying after a while when trying to flash a custom recovery (generally took a while for the device to end up having to reboot and unlock, and if I already did unlock then I think the toolkit wouldn't continue on unless I selected another option, and then if drivers aren't installed properly (I switched between a few devices) then that can also cause the toolkit to mess up, drivers and adb would be outdated from the toolkit in-comparison to what Google offered, etc.).
Simply put, Toolkits might be nice in the beginning, but I wouldn't recommend relying on them forever If your only mission is to just root the device though, a toolkit can do that pretty painlessly.

Absolutely agree with you on that one. My first Android device was a Infuse 4G. Every root and recovery procedure was absolutely manual. Not to mention most of the methods were hackjobs from the OG Galaxy S and required some extra coersing w/ Root Explorer and a terminal lol. Once I got my GNex, I could do anything I needed to do manually; I was actually rather shocked at how simple things were w/ a Nexus device.
Really though, I don't at all mind these toolkits, it might be important to learn what goes on behind the scripts, but lots of ppl here would have never attempted to tinker w/ android w/o some sort of script/batch automation. That said, i'm sure they cause quite a bit more traffic in the Q&A section when things to go wrong. lol
Thanks for all of the replies.
It should arrive today and I'll compare it with my Infinity first and then go from there.
Looking forward to know the N10
When I first received mine, I didnt think that I would recieve it till closer to the end of day, as stated with UPS. But it arrived at 10am! Hoping it happens the second time around for my replacement. Would love to have the whole day playing with it

If u look at user's stats near their avatar, almost always the ones who are asking how to do this and that and how to "unscrew" up their phones are members that have less than 50 posts. I think they hear about XDA and come here thinking that everything posted is guaranteed or side effect free. These phones are like our bodies... you mess with one thing and it affects something else. I've been around since 08 and seen more and more rookies flashing firmware to their shiny new 600 dollar phones with no regret until after they screw it up. No disrespect to the newbies, but for goodness sake read up and read up and read up until u fully understand what u are doing. Us older members are here to help but we can't fix ignorance.
I gotta say, most of the time I agree that it's just common sense to not take an OTA if you are already rooted. At the same time, I was surprised by how much I didn't know when I started veering out of my "home base" forums.
I had an HTC Evo 4G and then a 4G LTE for 4 years combined, right up until this summer when I got the G3. At the same time, I got my wife off of her iPhone (came from a Hero) and into an S4. It took me a while to get up to speed with the G3, but at least that was a new community. I STILL don't know very much about the S4 - what ROMs are good/stable/updated regularly, what the different root/unlock procedures are, which methods do or don't mess with Knox (or even what that heck that is). I'm slowly learning, but I just don't spend as much time over there. I just wanted to get my wife's phone rooted so I could clear the bloat and get a few root apps running for her.
If you don't spend a lot of time learning the ropes, it can be hard coming in knowing a little bit about what you want (root or whatever) and then finding out that your OTA isn't rooted yet, or that there's trouble brewing between developers which is hampering development in some way, or whatever the case may be. Add to that the fact that there are really different "customs" in different phone forums, and the terminology is phone-specific at times, and new members are bound to get lost somewhere along the way.
I don't know what my point is, other than that I've never seen a community get stronger through flaming and ignoring new users' requests for help. At the very least, I'm a fan of polite replies, even if it's just to say "you're posting in the wrong forum - try the Q&A section / look for Sticky XYZ" or what have you. @engine95 is on the right track by putting up these sort of informational posts BEFORE problems arise. They'll still happen, but this can stem the tide.

No worries. The kernel and a lot of the apks are different in ZV6, so I would highly recommend starting from scratch.
If you restore anything from backup from ZV4, you'll probably end up with issues.
LG/Sprint has really done some very strange things with this update. They say to optimize, but I think it's more so we can't modify it as easily.

I recommend doing a clean flash (wiping). It's a lot of work putting back all your apps and such, but it's worth it to have NO GLITCHES and everything working right.

If you're asking me, I say it's worth it. Everything works (to my knowledge) on this ROM. The new ROMS coming out (including lollipop 5.0) now for our LS990 have lots of glitches that need to be ironed out still. This ROM is the latest and has everything working and is awesome as a daily driver. It's going to be a while as the developers and testers get all the kinks out of the 5.0 ROM that is out now. Just my simple opinion. Also I love XPOSED and right now xposed only works on KITKAT and not LOLLIPOP (so far).
