Newbie Questions about EVO Rooting

I'm coming from a rooted port of Android for the Sprint Touch (Vogue) (Thanks DZO, Myn, and company!!!) and WOW EVO is amazing.
Anyways I have a few questions I need help with getting started I've been reading a lot but I'm still overwhelmed with the wealth of info:
#1. I updated the OTA - does this mean I can't root yet until the new OTA is rooted?
#2. I would like to go to a new rom without all the junk. I don't use sense, or any of that other fancy stuff running in the background. Is there a rom you would recommend?
#3. In the past, I had a rooted device where I could modify the androidinstall.tar and remove .apk's I didn't want. Is this possible with the current situation on EVO?
#4. With all these roms, do you generally clean wipe everything each time? or do settings / apps / configs remain?
Thanks!!!

I can try to answer your questions.
1. Unless something has come out recently off you are stock and did the update no way to root yet.
2. I just use stock ROM and remove what I don't use.
3. I personally use "root explorer" once you are root you can either unlock nand and use out to remove bloatware or you can adb and remove with your computer.
4. I'm not to sure about those commands, I haven't ever used those.
Look at the sticky in any forum and go to the ROM and Guide link and everything you need to know its there. Keep a close lookout I'm sure somebody will figure out how to root the update soon.

Yeah I love root explorer, that's how I used to change things on my old phone. I have it installed but I guess I just have to wait for them to root the update. Maybe I shouldn't have updated
Oh well, knowing XDA they will probably root it by the time I'm finished typing this post. I'll keep reading those stickies... thanks for the answer though!

No problem. Yeah, never install an update till the devs ok it. Good luck.

Crap one question I forgot - without being rooted - is there anyway I can do the wireless tethering besides the standard Sprint program?

There is a program on the market called easytether. One is the lite version, which is free. The full version is 10 bucks

Rooting Question

Hi all, I'm new to this phone, and new to Android in general. I've read up on rooting, but I'm still not clear on a couple of things:
1) Does flashing a new kernel like zedomax get rid of all the apps that are on there just to get root? I like quite a few of the apps that came from Sprint/Samsung, like Vlingo and all of the google apps, so I don't want to lose them.
2) In the CWM thread, it mentions that after loading CWM you can get root by loading a file linked in that thread. Does this mean that the phone is essentially the stock phone, with the exception of root and CWM as the recovery program? Is the stock ROM still on there until I choose to install other ROMs?
The only thing I'm really interested in for getting root is to run the Cisco VPN client from the app store. I don't mind tinkering around with new ROMs, but I don't want to lose any functionality or have a flakey phone where sometimes the radios don't work properly.
Thanks for the help.

Flashing a new kernel to get root access won't delete any data. About the only visible change is you will have an app called superuser. All data will remain unchanged. The best way to get root access is through ODIN, there are many tutorials on how to do this if you are unsure.
For your second question, unless you install a new rom, you will be left with the stock rom after gaining root access. You will also have cwm for recovery and superuser to give certain apps root access. Hope this helps, let me know.

Just so I'm clear, getting root access through ODIN, you're referring to downloading one of the zedomax kernels from part 4 here that roots the phone?:

Issues Rooting with Superoneclick

Hi, I have tried rooting about 20 times (not even kidding), and almost every time it gets stuck on step #7. I have installed drivers from LG and have phone in debugging mode. (I tried doomlord, but it won't recognize my Nitro) Does anyone have any advice to help me root my Nitro?

Try rooting it the way they root the optimus. That's what I did and it worked fine.

Remove the SD card( or unmount it), i got the same problem here and it thats what worked

What worked for me was installing the Android SDK package.

Click on a link in my signature and download from my guide. I have an issue to upload the file right here.

problems rooting too!
So this being my first post and all please dont freak. I searched as best I could to find the proper thread to ask this and this seemed like the best option. So here it goes.
I myself tried rooting my phone with Superoneclick and after numerous attempts I failed miserably. So I tried Doomlord's rooting method. I thought I had figured it out because at the end it said "OK!" and it even rebooted my phone but when I tried to DL Titanium backup and busybox it said it could not gain root access. My question is, first would it be safe to attempt the root process again, or if not any ideas on what I might have done wrong and maybe a solution to fix it?
Thanks again
P.S dear Mod if this was the inappropriate place to post this I apologize in advance.

i would download the superuser app and see if tibu finds root
also, there should be no prob running the rooting app again if you choose to, if you are rooted already it should return a *already rooted* message.

So I tried dl superuser and that did nothing. I even did a master reset maybe thinking that I might of changed a setting I want suppose to, and even that didn't work. Like I said I can't get SOC past step 7 and I've tried all the tips I read on here to get past that problem but nothing. Doomlords looks like it worked and it reboots my phone but still nothing. I would really truly appreciate any help!
thanks again

Apples and oranges. The two programs used to install custom recovery on the Aria utilize exploits in the HBOOT, which is something only HTC devices have.
What software version do you have on your device? (Look in Settings > About Phone > Software version)

I'm having the same situation. Everything I've read says that if you did the security update without root already then you can't root now. I would love for some one to prove me wrong and show me a way. IM running 2.3.5 v10j with kernel 2.6.35.11.

You have the recent update installed which makes it impossible to root the device. There are still methods to get the device rooted but it is not simple and basically involves this process: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597488
I would urge you to make sure you know what you're doing before attempting this though.

I had the above problem with not being able to root my phone due to the software version i had. I had to use the "unbricking guide" and after some challenges i was able to restore the phone to stock with root. It is risky, but at this moment im not sure theres any other way to do it, unless someone with programming skills can find an alternate method to go back to a previous version of the software without resetting or unbricking the entire phone.

[Q] Custom ROM with un-root ability

Hey everyone,
Just got a GN a few weeks ago, and I am dying to try a custom ROM, but I got dinged by my work with my infuse because they have a no-root policy strickly enforced when accessing our corporate email.
I was not able to use an un-root app like root keeper, apparently because the ZEUS rom I was using had an autoroot on startup.
I am hoping the nexus has better options for using the un-root app, to (temporarily) unroot my phone when accessing my mail.
I have been reading that it is better to manually root the handset, rather than use a toolkit, which I am OK with; but I really would be interested in hearing from someone that has successfully used an unroot app to remove root.
- Thanks!

How can they tell if you are rooted just through email use?

CM9 lets you restrict root access to ADB only. Might want to check that out

We access our corporate mail through the GOOD for enterprise application, and and that scans for root on load.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

If the app scans for just the root binary or Superuser app, then I don't see a way to prevent it from detecting root without actually being unrooted. It likely looks in all $PATH dirs for su, and then in /system/app or /data/app for the application to grant permissions. Any ROM can be unrooted, just remove the su binary (and any symlinks) and the Superuser app before flashing.

Damn, they take the fun out of the whole Nexus experience.

Yeah, thanks. I guess what I am asking is if any of the unroot apps work with the custom ROMs the Nexus has. The ZEUS rom I was using with the infuse had something related to voodoo that kept ROOT, and the unroot apps did not have an affect.
I have only flashed two android ROMs with my infuse, but am an application developer by trade, so I am not skeered by the command prompt. I know there are a few CM9 based ROMs out there. I was looking at the PARANOID rom just cause that seemed interesting with the tablet hybrid. I just would like to know before I go through the whole flashing proc. that I can unroot before I connect to my work email (about once a week).

Depending on the apps, root permission allows an app to gain full control of your device, so if one is not careful, he may let a rouge app into the phone. From a security standpoint, the rouge app may steal data from the email, which no company wants.
Think root as your computer's "Run as Administrator", same reason companies/schools limit user permission using User Policy(or whatever it's called)

Could just make a script to delete su and superuser and busybox, and make a flashable zip to put them back again.
Would require a couple of reboots every time but would still be quick to do once you had the zips set up

Use SuperSU. What I did was temporarily block root, installed whatever MDM app was needed, set up the stock Exchange information, and allowed root again.

Hi Kevin,
did you have success with that? Or any other suggestion?
I have the same problem, my IT wants to wipe GFE container if my device keeps rooted.
Thanks..

Hi RTHppc,
Sorry for the very late reply. I can confirm this does work with GFE. The unroot effectively does not cause a compliance violation.
Overall it was a hassle to verify, even though our infrastructure team was completely on board. GOOD was balking when I attempted to register a second device (even temporarily) with the same sim card. It would only throw an ambiguous error 'unknown error'.
I could go on, but that is the subject for a rant thread.

You can root your phone with the update you have right now, but if you uninstall certain apps you will brick your phone.
To root it use TPSparkyRoot - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1439429
This will not help you to install custom ROM's.
If you want Jellybean, you'll have to follow the guide in my signature.
Once you've done that you can install any of the many roms posted here in the Android Development section, anything CM10 based is Jellybean.

For root, this seems complicated, I'll give it a try later on but are you sure it will work because I saw many warnings and remarks (I'll read them carefully later on, now I'm a little bit busy).
And what about this site I saw before for rooting my LG P930 http://www.androidegis.com/how-to/how-to-root-lg-nitro-hd-with-superoneclick-tool/
They seem 2 different methods for rooting.

I can't confirm that it works, but there are success stories there.

This is what I meant: you gave me now two different links, so which one to choose?? I want the most convenient rooting method for my case.
For TPSparkyRoot, I couldn't understand anything in these lines:
"**UPDATE** As jchase stated "If your device "bootloops" don't stress, just follow through with the commands as it "loops" ro.kernel.qemu can do funky stuff." I did notice this in my rooting but just assumed it was normal as this is my first use of adb.
**UPDATE2**
If you get a permissions error on the call
adb shell "echo \"ro.kernel.qemu=1\" > /data/local.prop"
then you may try
adb shell rm /data/local.prop
And then try the echo command again. This may be due to having rooted prior without cleaning up properly. Thanks to Franky_402 for this piece of info.
I have updated the batch file to include this step, it should still be fine for those who are not having the issue as well."
+ they said "does not currently work for the latest ICS update released (v9.4.2.11 on 1/18/2012)" but it should with my 4.0.4 right?

Try bin4ry on v20c. TPSparkyRoot is based on an old exploit and works on v18f(4.0.3) only.

Just rooting, you shouldn't lose your data.... following an unbrick guide on the other hand, you will.
You can backup your text messages and your contacts (even though I believe you can sync them with your google account on ICS and you won't lose them), your pictures/videos/voice recordings are saved on your SD card and can be backed up to a computer before doing anything potentially involving data loss. If you root before attempting the custom recovery install you could use Titanium Backup to backup all your apps and their respective data..

Without doing some reading on the two, I honestly couldn't tell you which one is best for ics. I haven't used the official ics at all so I've had no need to root it. All the cwm flashable ics roms are already rooted, so I haven't had to root since I performed the unbrick process from gb.

Root for LG P930 ON PREPAID 'CONSUMER CELLULAR' network
My friend just bought a prepaid lg p930 phone from consumer cellular, which uses the att network. I was wondering if you can root this phone and install a more efficient rom on the phone. It just came out for this network and so I'm hesitant to try this root method that appears to be for the same model phone but for att and not a prepaid version. Any info on this? Thanks.

Hey guys... if you have my device that i listed and you are having problems rooting the phone, it was as simple as turning off my stupid Windows Firewall.
The problem I used to have with Bin4ry (selecting option #1) was it would create a backup, but when it came to restore it would never show up.
If you are receiving an error with a path ending in ric that it cant be located, your device will still root.
Mad love to you developers staying up all night to make stuff like this happen .
