Root ClockworkMod and the Kyocera RiSE

There is no recovery for this phone yet, so if you are actually able to flash something with ROM manager, you'll end up with a brick.

this is some BS. can't overclock cause stock kernel now i can't flash a new rom, can't have a full back up... what is the point of root access on this thing? freeze system apps and remove bloat? zzz... i had more fun hacking my w580i oldschool ass walkman phone lol at least it could flash firmware.

Because this phone is relatively new and not very popular. As far as I know there are no devs working on this phone yet and you are lucky to even have root. You should stop messing with your phone before you permanently ruin it and have to replace it. The only reason this phone even has root is because the method that was designed for other phones just so happened to work for this phone.

Unless you are doing some dev work on this phone, please stop complaining about lack of options for this phone.

Yeah there is some people working on CWM for Hydro the sister phone wonder once we get it if it will be easier to port for the rise. We have some great devs working on it. I've even asked some well known Devs to help also.

Thank you kindly. Some of us on Public Mobile don't have very many phone choices. At least they offer unlimited data.
