[Q] Getting Started... - HTC One V

I am getting this tomorrow and I want to unlock it, root, flash it to PagePlus, and install CM10 or a similar ROM on it.
However, I have no idea what order I need to do any of this in though and I'm not sure how to setup PagePlus, I just heard it can be done.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

Well I figured out it's Unlock, Root, ClockWorkMod Recovery, Flash Rom. Not sure when to setup PagePlus on it.
I searched PagePlus in this HTC One V forum and the only result was this thread.

will it work with me already rooted via unrevoked?
Same problem here don't know how to go forward.
do a search in either the q & a forum or nightly thread for 'ro.bootloader' and you should probably get an answer
sorry, I've made wrong post
same problem here, cant seem to be able to flash without status 7 on a tmobile g1
FIXED , it was a missnamed ROM
(actually wrong ROM with right name lol)

[Q] Rooted no what?

I just got an INC and it was 2.2 out of the box. I have a ton of questions. I did look around for the answers. If I ask something that has already been answered, I apologize.
1. How do I know if I have an LCD or Amoled Screen
1a. Do I need to know this for a recovery image (Dont you have to have one?)
2. I have not done anything yet but download titanium-What do I need to do with this?
3. I keep hearing about a nandroid backup? How do I do this?
I am sure I forgot something but I will edit if so. I have been trying to figure this out but I am finding a lot of conflicting answers when it comes to doing things with the INC. I just want to make sure I have everything in order to flash a vanilla rom.
Thanks
I cant post any links cuz im a noob on this site but I used the Root guide and remove bloat guide from jonamerica
just rooted mine a couple of days ago! I have not added a custom rom yet but my Hydra kernel is sick and I removed all my bloat with Titanium. Have fun! I sure am loving the results.

I can't post links either, but here is some information to help you get started. There are guides to rooting in these forums and on other sites; google "root incredible slcd".
1. Check the SKU on the box your Incredible came in. If it ends in W3 you've got an SLCD screen. Apparently all (or nearly all) of the new units (that is, those sold in the last few months) are SLCD.
1a. Yes, it makes a difference. Carefully read the instructions before you root to make sure you've got a recovery image for an SLCD screen.
2. Titanium won't work until you're rooted.
3. After you're rooted you'll be able to do a full backup through the recovery console.
I googled it and found this guide. Awesome tool t

My sku ends in 3m? Pretty sure its the sku. Also what does that mean for a recovery image and where do I get one? I have titanium installed but what option do I use to do the nandroid thing.

I am in no way saying this in a mean way so please don't take offense but I think you should do a little more research before you pursue this. Just clicking a different subforum this pops up: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=744807
use the search feature here, read all you can about rooting, clockwork, berzerkers recovery, and especially unrevoked. know the risks you are taking doing this. know that you WILL void your warranty. i'm not trying to scare you, i just don't think this is something to be rushed into.

It's totally cool. I appreciate the info. I did try searching but maybe not deep enough. I'll check out the info. Thanks
Ok so I have been reading from this link

I think I understand the clockwork thing. I read this link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=725744
I have the drivers installed on my pc and rooted. After reading from the above links, does that mean I should run this file.

I'm asking because I do not want to do anything without making sure...anymore lol
After doing that. I will have clockwork installed, correct? Except I have no clue what version of unrevoked I ran. I am rooted though. I know I am rooted and everything. I did this so I could install a vanilla rom. But I have to say, I am honestly lost. I have rooted other devices but am realizing that I literally know nothing about this stuff. So, sorry about all the questions and I'm trying to learn.
Ok, I realize I am like the dumbest person on this forum but. I have root. I have BAmod Recovery installed. I did the backup from recovery and did a batch recovery in titanium of all system data+apps. Am I good to go as far as backups go? And I have flashed roms before, just not on this phone. Once I have done these two things. Am I ok to flash a rom?
I try and keep it as simple as possible-
1. Root (to open up your phone's system)
2. Backup (just in case u mistake- u have to be rooted to even make a backup. Just rooted is not really much by itself, it just opens the doors so-to-speak)
3. Rom (apply all the different goodies previously unavailabe to you on your non rooted phone- someone else created these for all of us losers to enjoy for free-just make sure the rom you use is specific to your phone and android version)
Use these
1. Z4
2. Titanium
3. Rom manager clockwork
Also, bootloader/ bootstrap recovery- after u dload a rom to sd, use this to boot into recovery and select it from sd and reboot with

If the guy has an Incredible, are you saying he needs to use bootstrap? I have that on my Droid X because of Motorola's *lovely* gift to us, but NOT on my Dinc. Just curious...
-Mike
Good point-
the rom manager should work for this on the inc.
I have better luck with the bootloader on the x, as you said since we have the nice kernel on lockdown with the x. Ha

OH, I agree about HTC. The Droid Incredible is a really cool phone, and actually my favorite of the three that I have.
-Mike
I have not done anything with bootstrap or bootloader. What are those?
Sent from my Htc Incredible using XDA App
The bootstrap will make a backup and also reboot your phone into the bootloader where u can pick the rom to boot into from your sd. There a few programs, at least, that do this -verify your phone compatibilty.

[Q] Need help with root, i747 ucalh9

Complete noob here,
just upgraded to a s3 from my inspire 4g.
I want to root my phone and I was looking at this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426 but I couldn't find any information on i747-ucalh9. I did search the thread and someone had posted a solution but it wasn't very clear(to me anyways, Im kinda slow to this). I saw this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1902178 but got confused by the talk of different bootloaders. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I just need help getting it rooted and installing clockwork recovery. I'm familiar enough with installing custom roms on my inspire but any help is appreciated.

Just use the galaxy S3 toolkit
If you feel uncorfortable with ADB commands, then I would recomment you use the toolkit here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746665
If you need to reset your counter you can always use triangle away to get back to normal.
Welcome to S3
The toolkit should work, but some have reported problems. This post describes another way (essentially the same way the toolkit does it but with an additional step to make sure the stock recovery doesn't automatically get restored on boot):

[Q] Need Rooting Help Galaxy S3 SGH-T999

I watched you guys video on how to root this model and when I got to recovery mode and android appeared instead of the hat so it couldn't install the zip file. It also told me something about I didn't have a binary su installed when I tried to enter the superuser. I'm an very new at this and would like to learn more about this and know how to successfully root my phone. I also am running 4.1.2 Jelly Bean. Thanks, all help is appreciated:fingers-crossed:
There are lots of guides to help you get started in this stuff. Search xda for noobs guide and you shoukd find a few. Then read all the stickies for our device.
And you must learn how to use Odin. No way to root without it.
Once youve read what's out there, we will be glad to answer questions and help out. But there's no reason for anyone to repost step by step what to do every time someone asks, when its all already out there.

Unroot/Unflash VZW HTC One?

Is it possible to unroot and unflash my Verizon HTC One so that it is 100% stock?

Dude use the search there are sooo many threads on this.
I wasn't sure which one would work on Verizon. I know that it is different from other carriers when rooting (someone helped me root, I did not do anything or know anything about rooting). Would I be able get auto OS updates after unrooting?
There is a thread titled "return to stock LOCKED and s-on" that details how to do this. Complete with troubleshooting and file downloads, etc.. everything needed.
