I know there are plenty of guides out there on how to root the Samsung Moment, but when your first starting out it can be quite confusing... I would love to help a few people root their phones since I've been helped a lot while I was learning... I'll help from Step one =P. Obviously it would take too long to do it over the forum so if you want LIVE help you can add me on MSN... xxbbyxxgirlxx@live.com. or gmail xxbbyxxgirlxx@gmail.com

Hopefully I can help a few people out =)
 
i will be hitting you up very soon, thanks for volunteering!

Also, is there another way to contact you other than live? I dont use msn at all. I have yahoo, gmail/gtalk, and hotmail.

part 2a rooting 2a video by x8THxPSYB0RG - Photobucket

part 2b rooting 2b video by x8THxPSYB0RG - Photobucket

part 2c rooting 2c video by x8THxPSYB0RG - Photobucket


I will make a 1st part if I have to (which Im sure I will), to show people the 1st steps, like where to download from, what apps to grab, etc so they have a more complete guide. And I also plan on doing this with everything that I learn, so that we (other people who have learned this already) can have more time to help each other learn more stuff. Aint thats what we're here for? lol

Sorry for how horrible it looks there, but its due to photobucket recompressing the vids. I will go back, and increase my quality so they doesnt trash the intended quality of it. So, bear with me to replace these vids. I promise the quality will get better. But this was my first attempt at this, and partially not my fault. I didnt know they would affect the quality THIS MUCH & THIS BAD.

If you want to see it in full screen, go here:
If you are having troubles getting started on rooting your Moment..., and click on the files. I tried to post them here but it kept showing the vids instead of the links.

Speaking of rooting, I ran into a small problems while trying to remove MoxierMail. I was using all lowercaps, and in order to remove this apps (and others) the key is that you must type it exactly how it is spelled in the cmd prompt.

MoxierMail instead of moxiermail. Someone should add this to the wiki.

I added it last night hun ; )

If I root my phone, will I still be able to get the samsung updates and not mess the procedure?

What is rooting? can I revert back to the original configuration in case it does not work?
I am a newbie at this also. But am very interested in getting rid of my unused aps and speeding up my phone...

Thanks! Great thread!:)
btw my MSN and Gmail addies are: edfern34@live.com and eddie.ef@gmail.com

Thanks again!

What's SDX?

SDX-Developers Forum - site specific to the samsung phones (right now it's all samsung moment) - there are some pretty cool themes and such that they have on there (changes notification bar, launcher tab, they incorporated advanced launcher, which gives you 5 screens...). i'd highly recommend perusing it.

If I root my phone, will I still be able to get the samsung updates and not mess the procedure?
you should be able to; BUT as a safeguard, you're ALWAYS able to flash back to stock (what you have now).

What is rooting? can I revert back to the original configuration in case it does not work?
yup, see above.

I am a newbie at this also. But am very interested in getting rid of my unused aps and speeding up my phone...
bbbygrl is pretty gentle and knows what she's doing. you should shoot her an e-mail and she'll walk you through the steps. :)
