    Root TBH rooted GB question

    Installed the TBH rooted GB about a week ago, running great. Question is, will any OTAs start bugging me to update (trying to hijack my root)? None have yet, but if they do, how do I defend against this? Would any of these updates be automatic or would they prompt me and let me say no?

    Just switched to :pDolphin HD browser from Opera Mobile but noticed something annoying that I can't figure out. In Opera when you zoom, the text automatically re-wraps to fit and I can't get Dolphin to do this...anyone know how?

    Root question on 2 part rooted GB

    I recently updated to the 2 part rooted GB that I got from P3droid's post at droidworld....question - is this deodexed? That means I can change roms right? And with odexed I can't? But themes will work on either?

    Root Questions about removing APKs

    New to the details of Linux/Android OS so bear with me. I recently got rooted GB running on my DX and want to remove the bloat now, but I want to be sure I can easily put everything back if necessary. From my research, I think the way I want to do it is by renaming the APKs to .bak - is it...

    Root ANOTHER newb question lol

    So I was on OTA GB and SBF'd back to froyo (.340) without any problems. Then I wanted to just check out a little of what was available in froyo before I continued on to rooted GB (.596 right?), so I installed the Liberty ROM and just made a few other minor changes. At that point I had to...

    Root 1st timer questions - SBF back to Froyo to go to rooted GB

    Trying to search and find answers without reposting same questions, so bear with me, but I need to get these specific things clear in my head before I do this. I goofed and took the OTA GB, not knowing that it wouldn't be rootable. So now, to get to rooted GB, can someone lay out the steps...

    Root Can THIS happen if I root...??

    So I just went to use my Nesoid and see that it is nowhere to be found. After some investigation, I read that it's been removed from the Android Market due to copyright violations (which I have no idea how since nesoid just emulated and stayed far away from the actual games). Anyway it seems...

    Root GB complaint / how to - get rid of white backgrounds?

    So I like GB functionally, but I hate the color layout with the exception of the dark notification bar. Is there a way other than rooting to change all these damn default backgrounds from white back to black like they were in my Froyo?

    Root Noob root question

    I have an IT background, but no Linux experience, so bear with me. I'm thinking of rooting my DX (just updated to 2.3.3), and have 3 questions: EDIT: Forgot to ask, first off is it even possible to root Gingerbread yet? 1) On a scale of 1-10 (1 lowest risk) what is the risk that rooting my...

    Help Ringtone/Notification/Audio Issue after GB OTA

    Hey new here and I will try to add some value when I can, but I can't find an answer to this problem yet: I had a stock DX running froyo and ADW Launcher got the OTA to GB this morning and since then about 90% of my ringtones/notifications loop continuously for no apparent reason. At first I...
