Root Hello New Community!

J6Remy

Android Enthusiast
I'm J6Remy, from the Samsung Galaxy Prevail community.

So I am ready to get another phone and noticed that this phone should be interesting to work on and with. (I mean, it's waterproof?)

I mostly released themes and for the Prevail, but my skills expand way much further.

(some sample stuff..)
Custom Themes by J6Remy for CTmod
Custom Themes by J6Remy for 187~mod

I will have the Hydro in-hand sometime Wednesday. (Already purchased)

I will try my best to obtain root for the device or find it and get it here, lol. If there are any other developers in the forum, please feel free to PM me.

Looking forward to working with the community.

Welcome! I'm coming from the ZTE warp myself and so far I'm glad I made the switch. ZTE was just riddled with software issues but the people on this forum actually made the phone function the way it should have out the box, but that just wasn't enough, at least for my device.

Anyway, I look forward to seeing what you can do with this thing and I will go ahead and say that I will be your Guinea pig for whatever work you put out lol

Yeah, I heard the Warp was disaster-filled, lol. I can't wait to see where this phone is going to go. From what I've read on the device, it is pretty loaded down with security features from Kyocera. Especially the kernel and bootloader, but I've also seen some pretty big names around the internet that are tinkering with this particular device. So big things are bound to follow, hopefully soon.

The snapdragon processor isn't very new, but its shown to hold its on. So it's not to detrimental because it is well known to be a good one. Not really a fancy device, but I kind of look at it as when the Prevail came out..IMHO, the Prevail is a silent beast.. I think if this phone gets a good jump, it will thrive.

like in the OP, it's waterproof? its not too big or small, nice display from what I've seen, it runs ICS out the box, the eco mode, all for $130.00.The only argument I can really say about the phone is the need for a front-facing camera and/or I would have liked to seen a notification light.

Of course, I should have mentioned I am going to need some victims,:evil: I mean guinea pigs.

Anything I find will be reported as needed. If anyone finds some useful stuff, please post. If there is one thing I've learned in my time in forums is that the more people wanting to be involved, the more stuff gets released. The more things released, the more happy we get..

Believe everything you heard about the Warp, it's all truths lol.

I had the Prevail also, didn't have it rooted but it served it's purpose and did it's job fluently.

By the way the Hydro does in fact have a notification light on ;)

And you're too right about that, I'm willing to help out anyway that I can

lol it does? Yes.. Slightly happier now! thanks, I thought I noticed something that resembled a notification light, but wasn't sure. Thought it may have been some kind of light sensor. :)

yeah I got close to a problem when I started tweak stuff trying to get better 3g service speeds had to do a factory reset. Messing with stuff and only reading what you think you need is not a good idea. lol
