I may be wrong, but they are called preq.'s for a reason, as in you have to have it. Dunno.

 

well.. unless you wanna do everything from CLI terminal on your phone.

 

or if your on windows, use the Eris Master Application. link in right here

 

i am looking to root my eris although i have the 2.1 OTA. if i use the eris master application, do i need to download anything else or is it like an all in one package where it has everything i need?

 

read the thread. all info is in there.

there are a few minor prereqs, but nothing difficult to do. everything else is included in the app.
