Hi,
The Samsung Continuum is rooted courtesy Z4Root One Click App. You can either get it from official thread here or follow the instructions posted here. don't know if there are any custom ROM for continuum yet.

Or you can just download it from the Market, and run it...
Z4root is down from the market. I don't really about other countries, but here keyword search is showing nothing as Z4root. Can you please check if Z4root is available in your market?

I stand corrected... I just downloaded it from the market about a week ago so I assumed it was still there. It is gone now.
No word on any developers working on ROMs for this thing yet...
z4root
I temporarily rooted no problem with z4root, removed tons of Verizon bloatware.

Be careful with that. OTAs may look for all of their bloatware before installing... It could make upgrading to Froyo more difficult.
Can anyone confirm whether the Fascinate Clockwork Recovery works on the Continuum. I read on another forum that it does, but would like some better confirmation before I try it out....
Of course, that doesn't really matter until we get some ROMs going..... Please, devs, we need you....
Continuum ROM
I have the source code from Samsung and would work on a ROM if someone could get me started. This is my first Android and I rooted with Z4. I deleted a bunch of Verizon crap and now am having outgoing text messages not getting to some recipients. I would love a stock ROM.
I came from using the Nexus One. XDA forums for that device were loaded with devs and goodies. I miss all the action and running Cyanogen ROMs.
What ROMs are best for the other Galaxy S devices? I'd offer a small donation to get the ball rolling.

I for some reason cannot root using z4root. Have downloaded it from here and also the Market on the Samsung Continuum and it does not seem to work. After installing and loading, touching permanent/temporary root seems to have no effect. The 'loading' graphic sits there and the app hangs at running the exploit. Sometimes it even locks the phone to the point where I can only get it to respond by pulling out the battery.
USB debugging is enabled on the device running: 2.1-update1
Build number SCH-I400.DJ20
If you need any other info (or if I am missing something) let me know.
It took me a few tries, but I was successful with the temporary root.

texting issue
HI All,
I posted above about having texting issues after removing bloatware. It turns out that it was the way Google was adding a +1 to my phone numbers. Back to customizing. Z4 worked for me.

Seems to be par for the course with z4. Something randomly done or happens with the phone and by some sort of divine intervention or coincidence it's then rooted.
I also had issues with z4, hardlocked the phone the first time. Second time it FC'd. Third time I was waiting and got a text message. As I was replying to it, z4 popped back up and said rebooting phone. It rebooted and it was rooted.
I actually got it to work after trying and trying and trying. Now to find a Google Quick Search widget that isn't bugged and doesn't stick to the top of the homescreen after clicking on/touching/using it.
Finally got my phone rooted with Z4. Now can't connect to my computer. Gives me the option on whether to use a media card or USB storage. Chose both options (not at same time) and neither worked. Am tempted to remove root as it connected prior to rooting. Has anyone connected after rooting? Any help?
Thanks
Not sure what your issue is. I have my phone rooted and have no problem mounting my phone to my PC.

I have my dinc running skyraider vanilla 3.2, but my girlfriend is on the stock verizon pushed ota. No root (yet) but she got the update a little over a week ago.

Someone reported on AndroidForums that Verizon and HTC confirmed there was a problem with the battery discharging quickly on 'some' phones running 2.2 and an update was forthcoming. Don't know if that's related or not.

Me, too, at 4:08 PDT today. I'm rooted though so nothing happened besides the txt msg.
Well my battery life still sucks on 2.2 so I for sure want that update. I assume I have to put back the stock recovery to get the OTA. Does anyone have a link to download it? Is it the same boot loader that 2.1 used?
Some easy instructions would be good also.
Thanks in advance.
So, I have noticed that even when I kill an app, it always starts back up like a minute later...this the reason the battery life is horrible?
She just got home so I will mess with the phone in a bit and see if I can get logcat to find the link and post it up. Thanks for the info everyone. Seems helpful.
Aww geez, never mind. It was just the "info" message.

instead of freezing the bloatware, just use titanium to remove them. go to the backup/restore tab, and tap the app you want to remove, and there should be an uninstall button.
Just got an update notice sent to my defy like the title states it says 3.6.360. Has any one else got this and will this mak my z4 not work. I ask cause other updates have taken this option away but none state the# s i have so i ask. Thank you

FYI, you need to use the custom SuperOneClick from this subforum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913709
Tried it didn't work. Says its rooted already so i hit unroot n then says not rooted i still have all tue power. Reset reinstalled. N had removed z4 while back. There is still a usperuser and can't remove, don't want to hard reset cause the pics settings. Ringtones. And my notifactions. Getting them on was a struggle. Oh well. Thanks.

Use the SuperOneClick for 2.51. It is the only one that works on 3.6.360. I has an issue the forst day it came out. With lots of help from some folks on here, managed to get it rooted. Takes a while, like up to 15-20 minutes in some cases I have heard. Be patient. And the old superuser icon will still be there. After new rooting there should be 2, until first re-boot. Then only 1. Its weird but Igot it to work. Was frustrating and took a while. Good luck.
I can't get admin options???? Or don't understand it opens a box and has my comp id n continue i hit it n nothing happens. Then i check the other box owner. And nothing happens. ????

I had this problem yesterday upon flashing 4.0.2. The way I fixed it was by updating its bootloader to the latest OTA one.
No need to change modes. TN has been updated for ICS and works 100% now with the Galaxy Nexus
I have the verizon galaxy nexus and i somehow accidentally uninstalled nfc.. Last month i tried installing one of the hacked google wallet ports for the nexus. I installed it through the clockwork recovery, and made sure to make a backup before doing this. That version of google wallet didnt work right, so i just deleted it with root explorer. When i found out that google wallet can now be installed from the market, i immediately downloaded it to try it out, but every time i tried to open it, it would get an error. So i went to my backup and attempted to copy the old nfc files back to the system folder (i/e: NfcGoogle.apk and com.android.nfc_extras.jar), but that failed to work.
So any ideas on how to fix this and get nfc working again?
Im kinda new to android as a whole, this phone is my first smartphone. Im hoping this is a simple fix and i dont have to to a factory restore or anything. My phone is rooted too if that helps, and I still have the google wallet files i intalled too.
The attachment is a screenshot of what my wireless and networks menu looks like.
Any help is appreciated
"Secure Element Not Responding" ?
If that's the case, sorry, you need a new phone.
You shouldn't have installed any hacked Google Wallet in CWM.
It said that when I had the nfc files from the hacked google wallet..but with the old files it just says "unfortunately, wallet has stopped" ..and I know that now, at the time I just found the easiest guide to follow for installing it though.

Sorry man, you borked NFC.
You might be able to use it again by flashing back to stock images, but you won't be able to use Google Wallet again, that's for sure.
If you can, try to get an exchange
Huh oh well , I guess ill just give up on using nfc..its not too important to me. Its just too bad I won't be able to use a feature of the phone.
@samsuck Maybe I will flash the stock images sometime this weekend and see if that fixes anything..hopefully it will bring back at least some nfc functionality. Oh and I'm pretty sure its too late for me to exchange phones 0.o

Hi folks, used this forum many times for help but this is my first post.
Firstly I just want to say sorry if there's already a thread on this and if so, rather than having to repeat yourselves feel free to point me to it.
Secondly I've searched and searched for many methods to root this damn phone of mine (samsung google galaxy nexus gt-i9250). I've tried to do it using solely the phone and also computers… my problem is on a computer I can't get the drivers installed, tried everything but still no luck.
Anyways I tried to log on to my banking app and it refused as it says my phone is rooted so I tried a few checker apps and they also said im rooted.
But I tried another checker and it tells me I'm not rooted. Anyways after this I turned my phone off and on to find I had a supersu icon.. So I clicked onto it to see what was going on and it tells me the binary needs to be updated.
So I try and then it fails and I'm back to square one.
So again sorry if this is a repeated post and also if its in the wrong section… but if anyone has any idea on how to help me please leave a comment as I'm stumped and have no more ideas.
Thanks in advance.
