Ok im new to the rooting stuff, been looking into it and have decided that I am prob going to do it. But im looking for something simple. Basicly i want the factory Sprint 2.1 Eclair update(maybe w/o a few sprint apps), live wallpapers, and the ability to do wireless tethering. Does anyone know of a ROM that is close to this that i can look into to contemplate rooting tonight. thanks guys

 

Thanks guys I'll look them both over, I seen the sdx custom rom builder which is pretty cool.

 

Hey Pasta so if I use the sdk custom rom builder and I save it to the sd card all I have to do is run the phone in recovery mode and run that .zip file and that's it?

 

Damn lol i thought it would be more complicated(i guess i was making it harder). i think im going to try it today, with it being that easy.

And last question(maybe lol) since i have the DE03 2.1 update, do i need to download a diff recovery or is the factory one just fine?

Thanks again

 

Ran into a slight prob that im sure is simple to fix. I downloaded the custom ROM i created placed the .zip file onto the sdcard right under the "android","dcim", and "lost.dir".

I ran the phone in recovery mode, select "Apply Update.zip", but it said that it was unable to find it . so am i placing the .zip file into the wrong place on the sdcard?

 

I tried it again and had the same luck it said this :

# MANUAL MODE #
-- Istall from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:faled to open /sdcard/update.zip(no such file or directory)
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted

 

GOT IT!!! happy to, got it working just have to figure out which kernal i need to apply to be able to use the m900 wireless tethering

 

Hey guys I installed the new kernal and now the m900 teathering is allowing me to open it with no probs, but its still not working . It just says "unable to start teathering, please try again". Any idea's on it?

Thanks again
