Ok thanks. Ima use the VZW Hotspot until its not free anymore.

Get
AdFree Android
Titanium backup, buy the FULL version, when you restore apps, its automated, with free version you got to click yes or ok a few times each app, if you have 70 apps, its really annoying!

+1 for ad-free...BUT with the release of the paid versions of Angry Birds it's not as important as it was to me, but still great for being able to put the Flash add-on to "always on" and not have to worry about Flash ads in the browser.

Plus it kills ads in many other free apps besides angry birds.

Thanks for the recommendations.

Anyone had trouble getting titanium backup to work? I granted it su permissions but it says 'Failed' to acquire root when the app starts.

It's an issue with superuser and the new version of sense. There's a fix for it somewhere here, I saw the link last night in the developer subforum

Very true, although I kinda hate killing ads in free apps. I prefer paid versions so we can be ad free and support the developer at the same time.. Angry Birds was an exception because I always get distracted by the darn ads being in the same area as the target.

You also need to be sure you are using the latest version of busybox for TitaniumBackUP....select the problems tab. Should give you the option to update busybox.

I can't believe no one has mentioned ROM Manager yet. You'll need it when custom ROMs come out.

Apps That Work With Temp Root

We all know that we can use titanium with the temp root. Have anyone tried any other apps that require root? We can post them up here if they work or not that way people can know what they can and can't use. Just thought it would give us something to do whiles we wait for s-off but at the same time it can be helpful to other people.
P.S. Sorry is someone posted a tried like this.....

After you use it and re-boot you need to blow out superuser because it will fc (force close)

Gemini App Manager

I just found this app through Amazon called Gemini App Manager and I love it. It's like a titanium backup in a way because it can backup apps and even block them for rooted users. It has a cache cleaner, tells you all the permissions an app user uses by using symbols by each app and more. It's great so far and best of all it's free. I have no affiliation with it, I just thought I would share because I like it so much. Give it a try.
Its in the market too.
Sent from my Vibrant on Ultimate 2.2.1
Actually, I downloaded it from the market because it wasn't working from Amazon. I probably should have put that in the OP. But thanks for pointing that out.

That's a major bummer. I will try to post the apk if I get the chance.
For some reason I can't get adb working on my laptop so I won't be able to get the apk off my phone. Maybe if someone else had they could post it. Sorry.

What are the first 3 things you did after you rooted your Transformer Prime?

I just rooted my prime a couple days ago, but I haven't done too much with anything needing root just yet. Aside from Titanium Back-Up, what have you guys done with root on your TFP? Is there any bloatware I should be looking to freeze or get rid of? I imagine once the bootloader unlock comes there will be more to do with our beloved Primes. Thanks for the help guys!
1. FOR SURE.. get Voodoo Rootkeeper and backup your root.. right now!
2. AdAway to block ****ty app ads
3. Buy Root Explorer.. THE file manager to own, period
4. do my Ad Hoc wifi fix IF having tether matters to you
Use titanium backup to freeze (not uninstall!!!) all the bloatware apps.
Freeze Bloat w/ TiBackup
Add hosts file with Root Explorer
install V6 supercharger script with Script Manager
Freeze app start processes with Autostarts
Browse File structure w/ Root Explorer
Add Ad Hoc support with Root Explorer
Check out .db (data base files) w/ SQLite Editor
Great thread for noobs like me..
As i really dont know why i would want to root my Prime..
I have unlocked the boot loader on my htc sensation but thats for obvious reasons.
Going to watch this closely to see what you guys do once rooted.
Thanks
All right, I have all ready installed Voodoo to keep my root after the 2/8/12 update. Worked like a charm. I just installed AdAway, and have not gotten a chance to use it yet, but hopefully that works well too. I use Connectify on my computer to open up a wifi connection as I'm in a college dorm and routers aren't allowed, so I'm not too worried about the wifi ad-hoc fix. If I didn't have connectify, I would've been begging for a fix somehow.
@Swiftk: What programs did you freeze/remove with Titanium? I'd assume I should freeze most all of it since I don't use it too much. Also, can you delve into the "Freeze app autostarts"? Which apps?
I'm also curious about the V6 Supercharger, what exactly does the script do for my Prime, and is it really necessary?

Not even necessary. No one really cares that you returned it.
** But definitely root and preserve your root with OTA Rootkeeper.
First thing was using the rootkeeper. I then maxed the processor at 1.6 with atp tweak. Followed by allowing ad hoc connections. You might want to try installing Linux Ubuntu. Its not very productive but its nice to test out and show off. You might need it for something as well.
1.rootkeeper- obvious reasons
2.titanium backup- complete batch backup of system apps
3.adaway- banish apps back to the nether
Why are we freezing bloat instead of uninstalling? Must have missed that thread.

If you delete it you can no longer get updates to work from Asus. It is easier just to freeze it in my opinion.

You didn't ICS yet, my guess is? Apparently, new version can also "disable" and "enable", which if my guess is correctly, what rooted users could have done since Gingerbread.
Until Unlock, personally, I'm staying clear from rooting. I want to completely retheme my Prime (bootscreen, ringtone, etc)...

yeah, sent him logs as well but can't get it working. First beta didn't work either for me and didn't try the updates. Asked him through google+ to remove rezound from list of compatible devices since this doesn't seem to be getting fixed. Don't mind supporting devs, but its completely broken for our device, and so far no support or answers why.

ADs..

I have a rooted Galaxy Mega I recently bough, running stock ROM 4.22. I am upgrading from an original Galaxy Tab 7 (rooted and still running Gingerbread.. working like new).
Like on my Galaxy Tab 7 I installed Adaway on the Mega, but, seems I cant get of any ads at all. All apps display ads even the Mega is rooted and Adaway properly configured. Am I do anything wrong or need special configuration or is there a knows inssue about removing ads with this phone? Any other app that works or workaround for the problem?
Aside from this problem, the Mega is a great phone! Extremely happy
Thanks in advance for sharing any advice and input of this
im having the same problem
its probably the 'webserver' doesnt stay on, the moment you exit adaway its turns off by itself

Positively does not work. Installedl and uninstalled several times the app (and several versions) and never works.

My Rom is based on stock and has root and busybox and is adfree, Can you just edit the hosts file?

In a way yes, but not completely. You are blocking sites and using a proxy bypasses the site address as everything is server from the proxy IP address.
Adaway webserver would remove the ads and then show the page complete, a bit like Opera Mini.
