question about rooting process - Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay, I have read a lot of threads to try to understand the whole rooting process. Say I'm starting with a fresh 1.5 stock phone. Would this be the process?
1. install the all-in-one auto root script by grdlock
2. do a nand backup??? (still not sure about this part)
3. then flash whatever custom 2.1 rooted rom???
thanks in advance, and sorry if im no where close to being right.

yea pretty much thats about it. u sir have done ur research

Okay great. I also read about having to "wipe" while switching out custom roms. So you just can't boot from the recovery, then reflash a custom rom i take it? please explain the wiping; that part is about the only one i'm still sketchy on.

You'll see exactly what wiping means when you flash Amon RA's recovery image. To the best of my knowledge and to simplify it for you, it sets the phone back to basically stock like when you programmed it at the store when you bought it. Allowing the ROM you install to do its thing, so to speak.
You'll want to do this in between switching from one rom to another.
Hope this helps, good luck.

So each time you boot from recovery mode it wipes the phone automatically?

No, you will see the option and you have to select it. Its not automatic. Everything will become clear when you install it and finally see the image. Its all laid out for you, and very user friendly.

Ok, thanks very much guys. I understand it all now I think. Now it's just waiting and hoping for a downgrade method for the leak, which i stupidly installed.

Umm.. yeah... Dont hold your breath on that one.

First Time Rooting..

I'm pretty electronic savvy, but this is my first time rooting my phone. Have the Droid Eris running 2.1 hasn't been rooted yet. Tryna install the well known Kaos/Cynogen 2.2 on it. Any advice..?
Sent from my Eris using XDA App
I honestly don't know what ROM you're talking about?
Make sure you are running the 2.42 radio, flash the custom CFS kernel, download a cool CM6 theme for the phone, and have fun.
Oh and make sure you make a backup in Amon RA of your current ROM if you need to do any programming or whatever.

i wouldnt recommmend messing with your kernal, its not neccessary, most roms are up to snuff on the kernal & ready to flash...my only advice is there are alot of roms out there and to just try em out and find which one you like, everyone is differnt and has different prefrences.

Agreed with the proviso that if you are having problems and wipe wipe wipe wipe dalvik wipe wipe wipe dalvik wipe reflash or whatever combination is not working and you have verified fixes in your thread (See Kaosfroyo v33) take the leap. Its not hard its just like flashing another rom.
I do not think anyone is paying attention to the original question. This person is asking about the steps to root the phone. Putting ROMs on a phone is not the hard part.
Amon_RA recovery
I am new to this rooting and custom roms business. I keep seeing use Amon_RA to do a back up... Where do i get it?? is it something already on my phone?? is it a market place app?? can't seem to find it..

You might want to take a look at the forum 'thefuzz4.net' under the heading Android/Eris. There is a topic which goes into detail on 'How to root your Eris'. And will give a pretty good start. If you do use this guide you may want to stop at section IV and use a ROM other than the ones the guide outlines. Be sure you check the md5 checksums for ALL files downloaded. Hope this helps.
Cheers

It's just rooting your phone. Don't use Clockwork but use Amon Ra, which is available with the one click root method. It's real easy.

CWM recovery?

I can't seem to get to the CWM recovery, only the default Android recovery, which is preventing me from installing custom ROMs. My phone is rooted, and I've installed ROM manager, flashed CWM from it, and tried opening CWM recovery from ROM Manager, and by the button press method. No matter what I do, I end up at the default recovery screen.
Anyone know how to fix this?

Energy saving on Stock GB Rom?

Hi,
For now I am stuck on stock GB rom.
My amaze 4G is rooted, and bootloader unlocked (S-on).
I was not able to get the OTA ICS mobilicity to install.
I need my phone to be more energy efficient. Is there a way to do this with a kernel on stock GB rom?
Or some other way?
Also with S-on, can I flash any GB rom whether it be wind, mobilicity, telus or tmobile?
Thanks in advance.

Retried and it is going a little faster now.
I also found this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1433078
I think I like it more than the energy rom. It seems a little more complicated to install with faux kernel etc. Also there are no instructions there.
Could you give me some guidance on how to install this?
Also do I need to unlock my bootloader?

You'll need your bootloader unlocked for any rom installation or the recovery won't be able to write certain files. I'll be checking out the other rom in a minute.
Edit: The flashing of that rom is the same as any other, you wipe all partitions then flash the rom, faux kernel is OPTIONAL, you don't have to flash it, but it seems it's a part of the rom, once you're using 4EXT recovery, it's gonna flash the kernel for you, just make sure you make a nandroid backup of your current set up so if the flashing fails, you can always wipe and restore your old system so that you don't end up with an expensive paper weight, always remember to have a backup.

I can do a nandroid back with rom manager?
Does full wipe actually wipes everything including the OS from the phone?
Should I use Hasoons tool to flash the EXT recovery?

Yes, use hasoon's tool and get 4EXT, do the nandroid backup on 4EXT using the backup/restore option, don't use rom manager and yes a full wipe formats all the partitions leaving nothing on the device system partition, you can find that in the format options. Just be sure to flash the new rom before rebooting.

Nope, wipe all except sd, you did have the rom on your sd card right?
Once wiping, select install from sd card, choose the rom file and let it do it's magic.

There is no option for "wipe all except sd".

The rom is on my sd card.

CWM ROM manager keeps crashing and freezing after cy9 flash

Hi, I have been trying to figure this out for hours.
I flashed cyanogen mod 9 using rom manager from my stock rooted 19300. All went smoothly but now with cyanogenmod 9 Rom manager is really temperamental and keeps not responding when I try to use it.
Anyone any help? Please go easy with the tech terms I am a total beginner.
I also noted cyanogen mod 9 has no file explorer but I found root manager seems to do the trick. Took me a while to figure that out aswell.
Cool ROM though!:good:
Hope someone can help me out.

Ok cheers, So what would you recommend I use instead for backing up ROM's etc. CWM just makes things so easy for installing ROM's from the phone. Is there another app that will do this.
On cyanogemod 9 CWM seems to be a system app also. So cant really go delete it.

Use the recovery menu. What you are doing is not ment to be easy. You have to understand what you are doing or you will end up in an unhappy place now that your warranty is voided.

Never had warranty in the first place. Have to learn somehow so no point being afraid of it. So what your saying is use cwm manually so to speak instead of backing up roms and flashing new rom through the app?

Yep CWM recovery as it states on the tin CWM Manager is no longer updated or supported .
jje
Im kind of confused. Is cwm recovery not rom manager? Do i have rom manager or cwm recovery
Im going to attach screen shots.
So is this what i should use? Or is it recommended to use something else.
If i shouldnt use it, what will happen if i delete it seen as it's a system app and what's a good replacement?

No Rom manager is not CWM recovery. It is an app that is supposed to work with the cwm recovery.
All the options you need are in recovery when you boot directly to recovery from the reboot menu.

[Q] Followed tutorial, Unlocked Bootloader, Pda net, Superuser, still no root access?

Good morning guys,
Im not even sure where to start because im just getting into programming. I just tried to root my HTC rezound last night, so I followed the tutorial to the letter. Everything went very well by all accounts, except after unlocking bootloader, pda net, installed superuser, but yet when I try to verify that I have root access the phone does not recognise the root. Does anyone have any ideas why this could be? Ill be more than happy to post whatever information you might need in helping me figure this little problem out.
Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure about a stock Rom, but I did a custom recovery and haven't touched s-on or s-off yet. I did unlock the bootloader and pda net using the walkthrough found at the htcdev.com /bootloader site. I don't know if I just need to find another walkthrough to finish the rooting process or if I'm way off here. The phone itself still works as good as ever so at least I didn't brick it.

pull your battery and re insert it.
hold vol down button and power until you get the white bootloader screen
The top should say unlocked in pink
if you have a custom recovery it will also say tampered in pink
since you are new and not sure, to continue we need to verify this
what does it say?
