First you need an app, wireless tether or pdanet, or easytether read up on those and what you want should be available.

Got a brand spankin new prevail on the way and got a question.
Should I do the one click root/shabbymod before I activate with Boost or does it really matter?

I am trying to root my galaxy prevail. I can't get the usb drivers to download and I can't find the file to root it. Can anyone help me?

 

[AprilT]

I'm also having trouble rooting. Using a Mac I'm not sure how to download the drivers (it's a .exe file). I tried googling for them and no results yet.

I tried running the script anyway and got this message (shown below), I'm assuming because no drivers? Just in case I tried rebooting, starting the script while rebooting. SD card is out, USB debugging on, and I made the changes to the script that was suggested previously ($adb).

Any help is appreciated, thanks for everything so far!!

If you already downloaded the link in the op then just rerun the root.

Nevermind! I got it working, I think I had the timing off for starting the script when rebooting it.

I'm also having trouble rooting. Using a Mac I'm not sure how to download the drivers (it's a .exe file). I tried googling for them and no results yet.

Sorry about such a stupid question but is shabbymod a rom that is already rooted or what. Thanks. And can I have a download link to verson 0.8? Thanks!

Please forgive us, O Long Suffering Noble Penguin for we know not what we do or how to read or how to root. It makes our head hurt. Do not despair, we will try to do better. Keep on Modding! We may be smarter by .9

Now THAT was funny, sad, entertaining, etc. all at the same time. Wonder how "Smokey" got his handle? The "Indulge" is an appropriate phone. He might need to pray to Odin to fix his phone. That exchange sounded a lot like the old Abbot and Costello, Who's on First? sketch. You certainly have a lot of patience. They say that is a virtue.
