Root I'm Officially Rooted

Got my replacement Eris in the mail yesterday. Got wasted and didn't wanna mess anything up, so I waited until today to Root. It was very easy. I used Ecplip3's Eris Master Application ( ECLIPS3'S Eris Master Application Website ) and Grdlock's VanillaDroid v1. I love it. It runs so much faster than my 2.1v3 leak could think of doing.

Problems I'm still having: Apps like Craigsphone and iMobsters do not work. When I open the app I guess it tries to load a webpage, and I get a Webpage not found error. Doesn't make sense to me. It didn't work on leak either.

ya these problems are pretty standard on eris based rom builds ... but i am pretty sure most of the roms based on hero builds do not have this problem ..... not sure though .... look around try them em out and stick with what you like, but if you like vanilla hoban_eris just built a vanilla rom and has it posted over on XDA, and since it's bulit off of aloysius, ...i can tell you craigsphone works on it (cuz i currently have it on my phone, though i will be switching, cuz vanilla ain't my thing) .....


enjoy .... one thing rooting does is give you lots of options ....seems like more almost everyday
