I know the topic is kind of Lounge-ish (sorry Frisco), just wondered if anyone is still around from the "good old days" when rooting an Eris was no fun at all. If you recognize this....you'll know what I mean. One-one thousand, two-one thousand....

Well, heck. I intended this to be placed in the "Root" section.

lol...I remember this.... Glad I never had to try this .

There was a somewhat recent post by eu1 on xda I think (as "bftb0", of course) listing all of the rooting methods for the Eris. Kind of funny since there was only one for a long time. Here's the ones I can list/remember:

1. Leaked base root ROM (GUIDE: From stock 1.5 to the latest root 2.1)

2. tereg / dc_striker SD card eject method (Updated root 1.49 - xda-developers)

3. wag3slav3 mtd - mid.txt symlink exploit ([WORKING] ROOT for all Eris' - xda-developers)

4. Sebastian Krahmer's rageagainstthecage exploit (example: [APP] z4root - xda-developers)

5. sosicwitit (xda-developers - View Single Post - [Q] semi-Bricked?? fix?)

Pretty wild, eh?

Cheers!

Takes time. The release of the Thunderbolt yesterday caused a mega-posting flurry in that device's forum that requires a lot of attention.. still going on this morning. *sigh*

Anyway, Eris is part of my rounds, but I do admit to doing what tasks here need to be done and moving on quickly to the next forum on my list, most of the time.

Good to see you, ex ex bishop ex ex guy.
