is there a version of this that we can apply without loosing root?
just want a stock version w/ root
I am at android version 2.2 build FRG22D rooted
and just want to get the FRG83D update
similar to what Pete does
http://www.peteralfonso.com/p/downloads.html

after looking at the update list I would only be interested in the new twitter app, new gmail app, and news/weather widget. It seems it might just be easier to find these apk's individually and install on FRG22D rather than deal with the upgrade.
Unless there's something else worthwhile in the upgrade that I'm missing...

I didn't notice anything different after upgrading.

Honestly...I still do it the old fashioned way, and it hasn't served me wrong.
Good old RSD Lite lol.

RSDLite still works.
I know that for the X, z4 still works too. I'd imagine it does the D1 too.

Nope, z4root doesn't work anymore on D1

Did you use the small FRG83D-from-FRG22D file (under the OTA section) or the full FRG83 DeOdexed?
Or is that smaller file just what Verizon sent out?

I successfully rooted my Droid1 using SuperOneClick tonight.Downloaded it from XDA tonight.It reverts back to frg83.I am a complete dummy but the instructions were simple.
Sent from my Droid using XDA App

ok, not knowing what was added in Peter's build, I used a rooted stock build posted by metiCkOne (link below) that included busybox and superuser.
I didn't even wipe data, updated on my rooted FRG22D with SPRecovery.
After that I just re-installed my preferred kernel update to get a higher overclock setting.

hi,i used the latest download from peteralfonso.com website -its for stock roms -a star is beside it to let you know its the latest version....just click on deodexed(i used this version*)-it will download to rom manager-flash using clockwork mod recovery-this worked for me -i was rooted on 2.2 before i flashed this and didn't lose root afterwards....hope i answered your question,i'm still new at using android os(coming from apple os)
ps:use your xda app on your android phone-much easier to apply downloads

To everybody trying to root just factory reset and then use a one click rooting method

No ever since i got froyo second update FRF22 i never being able to get 1 click root solution.

Since 2.2.3 is an antiquated version of Android, there are no ROMs based on it. All Droid developers have put their efforts into maintaining Gingerbread (2.3.x) on the phone.
Ok but does anyone why my phone is showing the triangle and exclamation point tin g when I try to reboot into cwmz?

I just sucessfully rooted my wife's original Verizon Moto Droid using superoneclick. It came from the one click thread found here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
The key was to go go the bottom of the page and download the 2.2 version and not the 2.3
Hope this helps
I just got a droid a couple days ago and had this problem. What i did to fix it was used rsdlite to downgrade using the .sbf file for android version 2.2.2. Once at stock android 2.2.2 i rooted(search for tutorials its pretty easy). Once your rooted download rom manager. If you go into rom manager, flask clockworkmod recovery, then browse the downloable roms on rom manager you can find Peter Alfonso's roms. He has a rooted stock 2.2.3 rom. It is a long process but it works for me after not being able to find a way to root 2.2.3. Hope this long explanation helps.

You need to rename a file on your /system partition that overwrites clockwork.

You will need to remount /system as read-write to do this.
Can you provide more detail? Where did you find the 2.2.2 .sbf file?

[OTA LEAKS] DROID 3 (XT862) 5.7.902 AND 5.7.905 Updates from QA Server

Hello!
These are updates going for DROID 3 owners on the Verizon Wireless network. The 5.7.902 and 905 update does include a kernel, BP and bootloader update.
This update is known to quite a few but was not actually released fully due to the fact that it was not rootable and cannot be FXZ flashed back to 5.6.890.
This changed on February 11, as Hashcode rose up and said using the D4 root exploit can root this update. This was correct, I have used the exploit to root the 5.7.902 update. A lot have risen to say both the 5.7.902 and 5.7.905 update are rootable using the exploit below.
Disclaimer: It is your choice to update your phone to this, not mine. If in any way do anything happen to your phone that never happened before, you are responsible. I am not responsible for anything that happens, ill effects or not, to the phone.
**OTA ROOTKEEPERS DO NOT WORK, PLEASE PROCEED WITH CAUTION**
THERE IS NO WAY BACK TO STOCK.
AFTER SEEING REPEATED PROBLEMS, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU FLASH THIS UPDATE WHILE ON A STOCK 5.6.890 OR OTHER UPDATE.
DO NOT FLASH OVER AN ICS ROM OR ANY ROM. IF YOU HAVE PERFORMED THE TBH DROID 3 RADIO HACK YOU ARE RECOMMENDED TO NOT INSTALL ANY LEAKS.
5.7.902 Download Link -- http://bit.ly/zfKm6Y
5.7.905 Download Link -- http://bit.ly/y1GnCr
You may download the 5.7.902 update (223.6 MB) or you can download the 5.7.905 (224.9 MB) from above.

*Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) is HIGHLY integrated with Google+, and the app is usually only added as a bloatware addon if the phone is being prepared to see Android 4.0. Just this means we could be one step closer to getting a official ICS update!

clarification please
I've seen this OTA update posted elsewhere a week ago. I want to try it, but don't want to get stuck again in a dead-end OTA update leak.
So just to clarify - because this leak is now root-able, this means we can fxz back to 5.6.890?
I've seen theres a 5.7.905 update out now from the Production Servers will this be available?
mavrom 3.0 already uses the files from this OTA

This wont put ya in a dead-end area of OTA updates unless the update coming in a few weeks is different.
KEEP IN MIND: The ONLY way to get back to stock 5.6.890 is to flash a rom based on 5.6.890, or 5.7.894. (Hashcode's ICS, Steel Droid 4.5, etc..)

One Click Root

So every post or site i find thru google, including the main post on here, that tells you how to do it, and gives you the zip with all the files in it that oyu need, the link to download that zip no longer works, i've tried so many different links, all of them thru multiupload and it always errors. So can someone help me find a working link, or just tell me everything that is in the zip so i can download it individually ! The help would be much appreciated !
well after lots of frustration i finally found the right files and my phone is rooted. I installed Busybox (super user was auto-instsalled when rooted) and i put CWM on there. SO now that i have clockworkrecovery, how exactly do you boot into recovery mode on the LG ? I kno how to do it with the droid x and droid 2 global, but this is my first non-Motorola android phone.
apparently, when i was in CLockworkMod, i selected the downlaod rom option so i could see what roms where there, and it says I need to install clockworkreocvery first (thought it was already installed) and so i click install, but the list of phones that pops up does not have my phone on it, the only LG phone it has is the Esteem. So how do i get ClockWorkRecovery to install and work ?

What you are using is an app called ROM Manager and you cannot install Clockworkmod Recovery from that app. No features on that app are compatible with the Revolution.
You need to go to this thread to download and install Clockworkmod Recovery. Just follow the instructions in this post and it will get you Clockworkmod Recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1348557
yea i already had it installed, ClockWorkMod just seems to think it isn't, but if i click the reboot into recovery option from within ClockWorkMod, it does indeed boot into ClockWorkReocvery just fine. But I wasn't aware that clockworkmod didn't work for LG Revolution. Why is that ? I loved using it when I had my Droid X. They should fix that !
and so where can i find the ROMs for the LG Revolution ? I would also like to find some themes and what not.

The other ROMs listed on theunlockr.com are most likely Froyo builds. There are only 2 Gingerbread builds. Just flash the kernel, then you can use an app like SetCPU or CPUtuner or ROM Toolbox Pro (recommended) to adjust the kernel settings.
How do you flash the kernel ?

Just like you would a ROM, then grab some kind of CPU tuning app so you can overclock or underclock, whichever you want.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S3 Toolkit Build Versions

Hi, I have a question about the S3 Toolkit. I have a International S3 LTE, GT-I9305. I am on stock ROM, and on Android 4.1.2, build no. JZO54K.I9305XXBMB4, baseband version I9305XXBMA2. I am trying to root my phone through the toolkit, but there is a problem I encountered. There are two versions I see under International LTE that are similar to the above version numbers. The first one is 15. Android 4.1.2 [Build JZO54K BLL3] and the other is 16. Android 4.1.2 [Build JZO54K BLL5]. As you have read, i'm trying to root my phone, but if I select the wrong device version and build, it might brick my phone, so how do I find out which number is it behind BLL? Like BLL3 or BLL5?
AW: [Q] Samsung Galaxy S3 Toolkit Build Versions
Try framaroot to root your phone(frodo exploit), worked great for my s3lte:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37508806
If i understand it rightly the toolkit contains kind of prerooted images which must correspond to your actual rom and will be flashed to your phone. Both versions you mentioned don't match your actual rom. Btw framaroot is an app and nothing gets flashed so imho much saver and no risk of flashing the wrong image.

Ok, actually I did try Framaroot once, but all the exploits didn't work. I'm going to try it again, I'll edit this post once I'm done.
Edit: I tried Framaroot again, and both exploits didn't work. I tried the options for installing SuperSU and Superuser, both also didn't work. (funny that the Settings button doesn't do anything.)
So, how do I root my phone?

Thanks, but I found this app called Samsung Quick Root, and it says it can be used for all Samsung phones. Can I use this instead?
Edit : BTW, is there a way I can retain the original kernel (the one i'm using now; stock) so I can flash it back after installing the insecure kernel? (I can use any insecure kernel right?)
You could try but rooting doesn't give you a different kernel. It usually involves getting a custom recovery and flashing super user
There are some apps the use the exploit on the soc but I don't use them

OK, thanks for the advice given. For the method you have given me, I can't seem to find the correct one which matches my PDA, CSC and product code for the (modified) stock packages category down the post. So am I supposed to use anyone of the packages given? If something wrong happens, can I just flash back my package that I can get from sammobile.com?

Yes you can flash them as long as you can or you can Google framaroot and it will root your device without flashing anything

Ok, thanks. Is there any specific reason why Framaroot doesn't work on my phone? All exploits and root methods don't work on my phone. Why?
Edit: Another different question, is there any way I can do a screenshot using the stock method (I believe it's Vol Down+Home?) on the S3? Without the motion (slide palm over screen) screenshot thing option turned on, I tried different combinations of hardware buttons, but none worked. How?

Random bump, but just curious (I didn't want to flood that previous post. ). Will Samsung make a 4.2.1 update for the I9305? Or will they just wait until 5.0 is out, then make a 5.0 update (if Samsung does update the original S3 to 5.0 when its out, they probably should make one for the I9305 right?)?
Sent from my aweshum Galaxy S3 phone. How I wish it could make galaxies. Nah. Jk.
Same Case

Hi, I have a question about the S3 Toolkit. I have a International S3 LTE, GT-I9305. I am on stock ROM, and on Android 4.1.2, build no. JZO54K.I9305XXBMB4, baseband version I9305XXBMA2. I am trying to root my phone through the toolkit, but there is a problem I encountered. There are two versions I see under International LTE that are similar to the above version numbers. The first one is 15. Android 4.1.2 [Build JZO54K BLL3] and the other is 16. Android 4.1.2 [Build JZO54K BLL5]. As you have read, i'm trying to root my phone, but if I select the wrong device version and build, it might brick my phone, so how do I find out which number is it behind BLL? Like BLL3 or BLL5?

Hi! I'm trying to root my i9305 and we have the same case. So what did you chose within the two? Or you just came with different rooting procedure?
Thanks!
I assume your phone build is not under the toolkit? I did not root my phone using that method. This is how I rooted my phone:
1. Using Odin, I flashed the CWM recovery.
2. Went into recovery, flashed the root zip I got from one of the threads here.
3. Rooted!

Thanks for your reply!
Yep I downloaded the v7.0 toolkit and my phone is not into it. Yet on the latest version of the toolkit which is v7.40 my phone is already listed there. Maybe I could just wait for the developer to upload the latest version.
