I just put the tmobile leaked unrooted version of 2.3.3 and want to root with clockwork and all that so can anyone help?

You should fo rooted first then put the rmk or xboarder versions.. now you are stuck until root is available. You can't even downgrade, I believe..

Always, alwayssss search before you do something. Because now I don't believe there is a way to downgrade. Check the Dev thread to see if there is an option to downgrade.
And of course this belongs in the Q&A thread.

Little late to ask questions now, hope you enjoy the Tmo G2 Gingerbread, cause you are stuck........why don't people read threads first before they act is beyond me, it clearly states you will be unrooted, stuck with no root and s_on if you flash that leak rom. But since your posting your Q in the dev section and not the Q & A section kinda shows you don't read much of anything. FYI there is a rule that you don't post Q - questions in the dev section, only roms,kernels,radios,guides, and the alike, not questions....enjoy.

my wife just got her dinc2 back, her first was rooted and all that good stuff but before i could root the new phone and put a custom rom on i realized she was running 2.3.4. It did not come with this software that i know but at some point in the night it updated on its own so my question is this. how do i, if it is even possible yet root the 2.3.4 hboot .98?
2.3.4 can't be rooted yet.

i used the methods described there and they do indeed work.
running cyanogenmod 7 on my dinc2 now, It came from verizon with 2.3.4 and hboot 0.98
just follow the directions there (exactly) and you will be set.

Sorry if I'm posting in wrong section.
Today I successfully installed Leaked OTA ICS update IMM26 on my NS4G. It's great but to my disappointment Flash based apps are not working properly. Some Flash based apps are working fine (e.g. Veetle) but many others, especially browsers, are not handling it well at all. The reason perhaps is that many apps haven't yet been optimized for ICS. I'm addicted to all these apps.
Please tell me if there is a way to downgrade to Stock Gingerbread.
NOTE: I have unlocked bootloader but unsuccessful in getting root because SU works up to 4.0.3 only.
Thanks everyone.

This belongs in questions and answers.
But there's a one click (not really one) restore to stock in this forum. I believe its using Odin.
Just look thru the threads and you'll find the instructions.

not sure why you thought this was development...
But yes you can... Just wipe (everything) then install a gb rom. That is if you just did a cwm install of ics.

Ive had my SGIII long enough now running on the stock rom. Iv decided that I want to root it now. I want to know which or who has the best root out there that will me the most bang? I haven't rooted an android phone since my captivate a few years back. The best part of that root is that it allowed me to teather without having to pay AT&T.

I've only ever seen one root and it's ChainFire's.

If you prefer the updated one without a recovery...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957273
cf auto root + philz recovery is recommended.
Thanks you two....and I meant tethering, stupid me!

Looking at what you have said and your Sig,, you are in the wrong forum and risk bricking your phone if you flash anything from here

This is for the GT-i9300 ONLY flashing anything here WILL brick your phone, go to the forum for your variant and ask.

I have the T999 SG3 model, am rooted and currently running the Wicked v10 rom. I want to try out the 4.3 upgrade and was wondering what the best/safest way is to do this. I already did a nan backup. Do I need to unroot? Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.

You need to read the last 3 pages of this thread.
Seems that one you upgrade, there is no going back (for the time being).

No reason to have two threads about the same thing.
