How do I "Root" an Android - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Excuse me if in the wrong context.
I am running Darkstone's V1 Froyo build. Running sweet however trying to get the torch to work.
What is rooting?
How do I tell it the phone is rooted?
How would I go about rooting the phone?

the darkstone build should be rooted by default. at least I had no trouble running setcpu

Darkstone's Froyo build comes rooted already, the problem is that the torch app wont work because the LED Flash isnt working in this build.

wireless tether not working on any build

wireless tether is not working on any build i try now. it worked a week ago on mdj 2.2 sense.
but no matter what build kernel combo i try, it will not work.
ive tried michy's nightly build cm6.1
hd2one
biffmod
mdj 1.6
and i dont even remember the others.....
i need some help.
just Task29'ed, installed 2.15.50 radio and newest (Oct13) VBN Rom. (TmoUS)
tried out all the roms available. and i STILL can not get ANY of them to tether.
tested with hasarin 8.2 (stock batt)
hastarin 7.7 (ext batt)
what can i do? this is really getting confusing, as i was able to tether not a couple weeks ago.
Wireless tethering is working with my setup. Try that one
I have wireless tethering working with Energy ROM and Laurentius 4.0 - and the android build is MDJ's HD one. Kernels with wifi working have been hastarn 7.2 up to 7.7 (stopped using at that point), and MDJ's S1-->S5.
It has all worked fine. Are you sure you are updating the wifi modules?
Bangsters 1.5 works perfect with rmnet connection. Great build too! Just use the recommended radio and rom that is in his post.

Thank you for your feedback. This kernel 8.5 contains ts freezes patch, doesn't right? That patch is included by hastarin 8.3...
EDIT: Why in the modified 8.5 kernel's readme it saysto run all the commands? Do not just copy the folders as you normally do? Thanks in advance for the replies and sorry for my bad English.

it has been fixed already
you just need to do some changes in build.prop
search the forum for it
I'm using kernel by manusfreedom and all is perfect!!! Thank you so much!
Anyway to get this to work on other nexus/cyanogen mod bases? I'm using shubcraft, miui, and jdms builds and the newest kernels break the camera in all these builds. I've tried this patch but doesn't work and I think it may have something to do with the build.prop file. Any help?

EDIT: on another topic, i founded kernel hastarin r8.5.1 modified by manusfreedom. It limits camera to 3MP...this kernel 8.5 limits camera to 3MP too or not? Thank's in advance!

[Q] camera freezes n Fc's on MM's Gingerbread CM7 Custom ROM v1.1 (DT-Ap2Ext,Bat%...)

hi,
i have installed MM's gingerbread cm7 rom on my N1. the camera when taking a picture freezes and Fc's the same happens while taking video. I then installed cm 7 build 15 on my N1 as posted in his thread the camera works fine. i have .35. HBoot and 5.12.00.08 radio. i cudnt post reply on his thread so i thought to post it here.
Hi Buddy, I have the same issue with you. I tried a lot of version of Gingerbread, and find fitsnugly's CM7 and MM's AOSP's are the most stable version I ever used. and MM's CM7's not so good as his AOSP 'product', hehe.
In fact, this issue also be submitted in his post by some other guys. I may have a look about the problem and hope there is fixed version can be published.
Had the issue before, but that's when I tried flashing another kernel.
Just try flashing the ROM alone first and see if it works for you.

i was using micromods AOSP but i was too tempted to try MM's CM7. i am also following his post and others do have the same problem
i guess will have to wait till he comes up with something.

Hi Buddy, I have re-flashed my phone to fitsnugly's rom, and the camera is fine. I also found MM released a new version which said that fix this issue by fitsnugly's help. So I think this rom is fine with camera issue.
I also found this rom had a poor battery performance. Don't know just my problem or a common problem. I think we still need some days to wait it more stable~~~

[Q]Cleanest 2.2.1 ROM that is fully functional

I posted yesterday about my girlfriend's EVO freezing up on her after i rooted and her pictures randomly disappearing. I want to install a new ROM on her phone to see if the issues will go away but I need help on choosing the best FroYo ROM that is fully functional. Particularly one that is clean of bloat and is pretty fast. I've searched around but haven't found anything that is as basic as what I'm looking for. I only see her on weekends so if something goes wrong I wont be there to fix it for her so that is the reason I need the best functioning ROM with the least issues.
P.S. I own a Fascinate so please bare with me I'm not familiar with EVO ROMs, Kernels etc...
If you want clean and simple. Frost Rom.
If you want more to a ROM you willl have to look through each thread as there are a ton of great roms...Mik, Warm, Calk, Azrael, Fresh...etc
best is just an opinion
my sense rom choice is Miks rom's
or CM6 CM7 is having gps troubles

CM7 gps issue is easily solved by doing dialing ##gpsclrx# in a sense rom to reset the gps.
My answer to the op, my opinion cleanest Rom that's fully functional is Cm7 nightly 6 or higher, of course they're 2.3.2 and nightly 11 is 2.3.3 not 2.2.1 like was asked.

yes but thats not 100%
I would try MikFroy 4.2 if you like it plain. Also EViO 2, Ava, Azrael, Stock Turbo, Fresh and Sprint Lovers.

Not everyone has had success with this.

Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo gets my vote.
Thanks for the replies guys. If I'm correct, I thought I saw that 4g is not functioning on CM7.

Wimax doesn't work on RC1, but became functional starting on like Nightly 6, I think.

If you download any nightly from build 6 and up, Wimax is implemented and working, I am currently running Nightly #11, Wimax works, GPS works(I had to use ##gpsclrx#), worked for me, but as they said doesn't work for everyone.
So basically If you want to load CM7 on her phone
1. Download the latest nightly http://mirror.kanged.net/nightly/supersonic/cm_supersonic_full-11.zip
2. Download gingerbread gapps http://android.d3xt3r01.tk/cyanogen/gapps/gapps-gb-20110120-signed.zip
3. download mslreader from the market, and write the number down.
4. open the dialer and type ##44772579# (this may or may not make your gps work on gingerbread, but it doesn't hurt to do it anyway)
5. Input the msl number that you wrote down
6. the phone will reboot, let it come all the way back up
7. Reboot to recovery
8. (Do this step twice to be safe) Wipe Data, Cache, and Dalvik-Cache(located under advanced for clockworkmod)
9. Flash CM7
10. Flash Gapps before booting into CM7 (found this has had the most success for me)
11. Enjoy Gingerbread with MOAR GEEEEEE's

Any Mods that use T-Mobile G2 trackpad to wake?

I've looked all over XDA for one that will work with stock 2.3.4 rom thats rooted. I've tried the TrackPad Wake Mod and that didnt work. If there is a post for stock 2.3.4 please reply, I don't want to flash CM7, for it is too buggy. Thanks in advance!

I'd recommend checking out my latest G-Lite update. It uses the latest 2.3.4 G2 base, and it absolutely flies. I got TP wake working in my ROM, but you can flash this:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/102177/glite_trackpad_wake_mod-signed.zip
and it will enable the feature on any ROM based on the TMO 2.3.4 base.

Ok, so I can just flash via Clockwork? I'll try it. Hopefully it works!
UPDATE
It worked! Thank you soo soo soo much! I didn't want to flash CM7 just for that feature (not saying CM7 is great, cuz it is). Thank you so much!
Thanks for this thread and solution
