    Root Error running privileged commands

    Hey people, I'm rooting my friends DX and used the one-touch method. It went off without a hitch, but I can't flash a custom recovery. Seems the reason is because I can't run privileged commands which I found using ROM Manager. I'm drawing a blank at what I should be doing next and for some...

    Root [Verizon] So...how's about a ROM sticky?

    Android forums has always been my go-to site for all things awesome in the world of Google. The people here are great, friendly, knowledgeable, and have always tried to help their fellow phandroids. It's with this in mind that I have a request: how's about we have a sticky with all the diff...

    Since Verizon forced my hand...

    Looks like I'm moving on from my Bionic. To give my amazing plan that I currently have with Verizon a stay of execution, I upgraded to the ever amazing, one and only iPhone. Wow, I couldn't say that with a straight face. Nah, of course it's the Galaxy S3. I didn't want to. I have 5...

    Root RCs and WIPs and OTAs Oh My!

    Things are busy around the holidays, working multiple jobs in retail, well, let's just say there's just not enough hours in the day. So yeah, I've been kinda scarce lately, and I'm very much out of the loop. I haven't flashed a new ROM in well over a month, and I've got an itch to scratch...

    Root The Charge is a nightmare

    Excuse me while the normally very composed, and experienced root user steps away from the computer to make room for the angry guy. Everything about this process is ****ed. Seriously, this is the stupidest thing I've ever seen. I've rooted 5 diff Android devices now, and this is by far the...

    What's the deal with music and ringtone apps?

    What happened to all the music and ringtone apps? I was trying to install a few apps that I have on my OG, but I can't get them through the Market on my Bionic. Apps like Ringlert and Mabilo don't show up, and there doesn't seem to be many ringtone app options left. Music apps like iMeem and...

    News and Weather Widget options?

    I've been using the News and Weather Widget on my OG for quite some time now. I absolutely love that thing, but it doesn't appear to work on the Bionic when I tried Bumping it over. I haven't come across anything in the Market that's similar to it, and I'm still not quite sure how to use the...

    Adios amigos, adios my friends...

    Oh, what a ride we've had together. From the anticipation of the OG, from the launch day excitement, to be opened to the world of root, we've gone through a lot together. Almost two years we've shared. And as each new Android device came out, we lost a couple and a couple more. Today, I move...

    Is your OG Droid on it's last legs?

    Amazing number of people on AF have proclaimed their Droid is on it's deathbed. Well, it's about time we had a poll to get an idea of just how many of us there are. Feel free to speak up about what's wrong with your OG. Hell, maybe some might find a solution to their issue that might give...

    To screen protect or not to screen protect...

    I purchased the DC from Costco which comes with the car charger, case, and screen protector. I'm not sure of the quality of the screen protector, but from others I've seen with it on, it seems to diminish some of the quality of that beautiful display. I've used the Invisashield protector on...

    Root Using TiBu with the same SD card on a diff phone

    Basically, I'm trying to restore my apps on my new Droid. I took my SD card out from my old one and put it in the new. Going into batch mode shows my missing apps, but they won't restore. Is this simply b/c of the diff phone or is there a way to get this to work without manually DLing 150 apps?

    Well, this changes everything

    Gingerbread Update for the Motorola Atrix 4G Brings Fully Unlockable Bootloader Seems Motorola is making good on their promise to unlocking bootloaders. Now this doesn't automatically mean we'll see the Bionic come with one unlocked, but this does give us hope that it will down the road. At...

    Root General questions on a rooted Droid 2's capabilities

    I've been rocking the OG Droid since Day 1 (quite proudly, might I add), which has been rooted since around January or February of last year. Long story short, I should be receiving an insurance replacement today which I expect will be a D2 (but not positive). So I've got a few questions for...

    Help Missing Apps?

    I'm noticing that not every app is appearing in the app drawer. I can access them from the My Apps section of the Market, but no where else. They're not on the SD Card, soooo....where my apps?

    Just a quick "Hello"

    I've been doing a fair bit of lurking, and a small touch of sharing in here. Def been considering the Charge. Well, finally trash canned my g/f's DInc yesterday for a shiny new DC. Oh man, what a diff. I can finally comfortably say that a phone has come along that truly makes my OG Droid...

    Root Consistently rebooting DInc

    I've had my g/f's DInc rooted since last October. I've flashed just about every ROM out there, multiple kernels, and I'm still having the same probs. See, the prob is any task that you do for too long will reboot the phone. GPS (making navigation impossible), internet, games, whatever. This...

    Well, it finally happened ...

    As I'm getting ready to watch the new X-Men movie, I am saddened to report the serious injury to my Droid. Yes, getting out of my truck, I dropped my beloved OG from about four feet. Landed right on the Gorilla Glass. Nice crack in it. Can actually feel it in the corner, but for the most...

    Help A few questions about how the Revo performs

    As I've stated before, I've got to replace two phones very soon due to the fact that they're adversely affecting our blood pressure. I'm thinking about some of the reasons why we're no longer happy with our OG Droid and DInc, and thought I'd pose these concerns to you Charge and Revo owners...

    Root What have you done with your rooted Charge?

    The title says what am I getting at, but I do have some specific questions. Have you flashed a custom ROM yet? Where are these custom ROMs? Have you been able to change the file system? If you have, have you noticed benefits? I'd really like to get the Charge, but the file system has...

    Have you noticed a decrease in your 3G speed?

    While trying to solve yet another problem for my g/f's DInc, I was cruising their forum and I came across a thread about 3G speeds slowing considerably. It got me thinking, as I've def noticed that DLs, websurfing, certain apps, have all gotten progressively worse. Am I the only one, or have...

    Phone has no 3G or 3G icon

    I know I'm probably setting an uncomfortable precedent by seeking help for a phone diff from the forum I'm posting in (to be fair, I did post in there as well), as this is now the second time I'm doing so. But to keep it relevant, I'm hoping if some of my OG Droid faithful have had a similar...

    Help DInc has NO 3G (no service, no icon)

    Ok, so I got the authentication problem solved, but something I thought might be tied into that problem is apparently it's own separate issue. My g/f's DInc currently has no 3G whatsoever. The 3G icon doesn't even show up at all. I've tried everything I can think of. I've flashed new ROMs...

    Root Verizon can not authorize this device?

    Guys, I'm cross-posting this like again. I have to take the phone in by tomorrow, and really trying to avoid unrooting the device. I'll quote my message from the Droid forum. Hey guys. I'm having some issue's with my g/f's DInc. Yeah, I know, this is the Droid forum. But I've posted this...

    Verizon can not authorize this device?

    Hey guys. I'm having some issue's with my g/f's DInc. Yeah, I know, this is the Droid forum. But I've posted this over there and I didn't get one single reply, and to be honest, the DInc owners have never been the most knowledgeable sort. So I'm hoping that maybe someone here will recognize...
