I don't believe there is any topic like this for the G2. Just wondering if there is any psfreedom app for the vision yet. I know it just got rooted like two days ago, but just wondering if there is a psfreedom out for another android phone that works with the G2

Just buy a p3go there $28
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
imo the best way to do the psfreedom is in recovery. that way you dont have wifi issues and other little things ive heard about. i kow there are recoveries based on amon_ra's recovery for the g1 that have this included. im sure someone can do it to cwm or base off of amon_ra's for us.
Well I checked the site and the G2 ain't on it so was wondering if there is anyway.. and to the $28 I know they sell em but id rather just have it on my phone so I can take it easier. Since I take my phone everywhere I wouldn't have to worry about leavin it behind =p.

Well... actually, you can unplug it right after it's jailbroken until the next reboot.

You only need to plug in the phone/usb dongle to boot up the system. Once it has started up, you can unplug. Yes, I have tried it. I've been doing this since the port came over to the G1 a good while ago. I would like to know where you heard this from.
I'm also waiting for a psfreedom on G2!! I dropped my G1 one too many times and it's finally dead... /tear, good times w/ the G1
i broke my G1 sometime back , i been waiting on Psfreedom on G2 since then , i havent turned off my ps3 , because i couldnt get it back into dev mode .
but now theres hope...
You only need to connect it at the startup of the PS3. Once it's started you can disconnect it.

When I run wireless tether it starts and seems to work, but I don't see it as an option in my wifi on my laptop. I'm thinking my phone's wifi should be on, but it isn't and it won't start while running the program so maybe that's the problem?
edit: I found the correct version to download, now it is working=)

I used unrevoked 3. Goto unrevoke dot com and select your phone and follow the directions. It does say it won't work with phones after 11/16 or something which I don't understand since the software should be the same unless they hardwired something to prevent it. I wasn't able to do it till this newer version of unrevoked came out.
Before retards ruin your phones with unrevokoked you need to check which bootloader your phone shipped with. If it has hboot 2.02 you cannot use unrevokoked. You need to follow the guide "hboot s-off fresh like pinecones" to achieve root.

I'm only a retard so I couldn't say for sure. I just followed the directions on unrevoked and it worked like a charm. I really just wanted to get WiFi tether to work and it does now. I would think there would be lots of people posting that their phones got bricked by unrevoked3 if that were the case, but again I'm only a retard hehe.
I have tried unrevoked like 5 times now and it keeps getting stuck , and I tried the s off 2.02 and it will not let me flash recovery it changed the Rom and put it back to 2.1 but that's it , nothing I have tried works this is the first time I have ever seen one do this

There were A LOT of them lol
I don't know if any one has found this but the incredible has been able to do it by changing the system software without rooting it. My friend did this and he was able to use the tether on/off switch on the settings menu without ever having to pay the extra amount. Does anyone know of a method like this for the EVO? I believe its called dun hack.
Yep just run the mikfroyo Rom and its already built in.

If you would like a good step by step guide go to WWW.androidforums.com and go to the EVO section then look in the 'All about Root' section. There will be a 'Rooting guide for Dummies' at the very top. Follow this guide and they will help u with any problems or concerns

Thanks for your input all. But my primary goal is to enable wifi for free without rooting the phone at all, just re programming the setting do that using wifi would use my data plan.

He's not rooted cuz all he did was turn on the tether on the phone from the setting menu and I was able to connect my evo on the verizon network. He has actually done this for two months already without verizon knowing our an increase in his bill.
sounds like he's rooted, that's how you do it on a rooted phone. some reason you don't want to root?

Yes. Just go to unrevoked.com and do it, simple, easy peasy...
Then flash a rom, they all have free tether..
I just did this yesterday, took 10 mins. DONE.
I need to know a convincing argument to get him to not be pissed. I actually got my phone from him and it was under warranty, I was just sick of not being able to do everything I want to.
Can you guys help me out?
hahaha nice...
just tell him you can always unroot if needed
If or when it screws up, flash the official HTC RUU and then it's back to normal. They don't know if it's rooted or not, if they want to see it flash the RUU.
Sent from my HERO200 using Tapatalk
If he is worried about the warranty, you can always go back to the Spring software by running the RUU from the Sprint/HTC website and the phone will return to the Out-of-Box state... so no worries there.
On the other hand, install a custom ROM (aospCMod) and show him the difference on what all you can do with the phone... as compared to the Sprint software.

Your question has already been answered, just run the RUU to get it back to factory state and magically the warranty's back in effect. What exactly is he pissed about? It's kind of hard to help you devise some type of argument if we don't really know what he's saying since you can undo what's been done. Hmmm...maybe try telling him to stop being such a girl about things and grow a set(no offence to any hermaphrodites who've rooted their phones). If he/she doesn't, refer to my previous drunk post

Tell your Dad that when you master new technology, you are improving your skills and knowledge so that you will be able to secure a well paying job. Tell him that when you do secure that job, YOU will buy HIM a nice new phone!
Try this, used to shut my dad up and leave him pissed with this one:

versedout,
Thank you for this bit of information. This is what all Android users have been waiting for. I am completeley stoked, but it's bitter sweet at the same time. I really love my Vibrant and really don't want to have to get another phone so that I could enjoy the nectur of the gods. I can only hope, no wait, I KNOW that one of the Devs will get this up and running for all phonesnot just: "The app has just hit the Android Market and is apparently available for the HTC Incredible, Nexus One, Evo 4G, and G2, plus the Samsung Nexus S.

No need for an apk when there is an online Android Market. Here is the link to the market:

Of course I installed it and it gave me "Netflix is not supoorted on this device..." but it does load up the startup screen.

well its a no go changed my build.prop strait from cm7 for nexus s and its a no go lets me log in and check movies and such but wont play ill reinstall and see if its different
i get nothing but a blank screen then fc on cm7 with bilboa's kernel, tried installing the app twice with the same result.

thought i had read a while back that netflix was only able to make a licensing deal for android if the supported device had hardware based drm to prevent piracy
Got the app on my G2 and its the same as my itouch. What I don't understand is why does it need DRM protected when you need an netflix account to use it.

Boot Manager has some anti-piracy measures in place. Looks like you somehow sent up a red flag.
Does it wort the 3$?
That's a matter of opinion. I bought it and rarely use it, but that may change next week.
