Root Tutorials, Roms, Team MarvelUSc -- EVERYTHING YOU NEED

Did a sanity check that I *CAN* actually flash a ROM. I found insink71_marvelc_signed_120411_130517.zip and flashed it - no problem. Of course I'll restore my backup, but feel a little better that it's not me... only what on earth is the problem?

Not sure this is relevant, but here's what I see in HBOOT

Sure. This is the thread. Rob has 2 versions, both flashed and started OK. But with his 1.1 ROM I had operational problems. Rob is looking into it now. Whenever I loaded something from the store or restored via titanium backup the phone would reboot... not very nice! I ended up going back to the stock ROM (nandroids from the first post in this here thread). S-OFF stayed. The rooting procedure simonsimons34 lists did not work, a newer version of the SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse did neither. But I was able to flash root.zip and started from there. I really wanted to get darktremor's a2sd but that does not work on stock ROMs, you need to cook your own (and I am not there yet) so I used link2sd.

Glad to know I am not alone!

Regards,
Rich

=/ I really wish i knew what you were talking about? Sounds like it'd work great but I have no idea how to even go about doing all of that? I need it explained to me in a "for dummies" way. What am i downloading? and doing with it? am i downloading it on the computer, because my phone won't let me download anything, open my gallery (like 30 pics), can't open texts half the time......

In the "change PRL" tutorial, it says "Download and unzip the attached 60681.zip", Where do I find this file? sorry for the newbie question
I pointed this out a while ago... do a search on the xda forum, I found it there

Before you go crazy though, check what level you are currently at. Go to settings - about phone - software information. I found mine already was PRL Version=60681.

Hey Simon or anyone else, in step one of the s-off tutorial it says
"1) Download the files attached below" Ive scanned every instruction from 1 through 20 and cannot find a link for files pertaining to the s-off instructions? please let me know where im missing them, thanks in advance!
Please read through the posts in the thread - I've pointed this out before, and gave a link where I found files, I think. (Seems to me like simon abandoned this thread)
