You can run apps like root explorer and adfree. In general it allows you to use apps that require root user permissions. Try adfree app from the market and you will get the idea of the possibilities. If you play games like angry birds with the ads in them adfree will cut them out.
BTW nice youtube videos. Helped me decide whether or not to get the Warp.

One word: Tether! :-D

It almost looks like you're not running the root tool from the right directly. Unzip it, open a DOS shell, change to the directory where it's unzipped, and run it from the command line there.

OMG:eek:
Just open the folder and copy the folder inside of it and paste it to your desktop. I guess people dont know what file compression, zip, and rar are these days. I bet they know what 7zip is though.

First post here, and it turns out to be PCish instead of Androidy ... anyway, I wonder if your browser's default download location is somewhere other than your desktop. Often the default is your documents folder or something similar.

But wait ... if you say unzipping them isn't an option, then I guess you're finding them wherever they are. The choice for unzipping on a standard Windows system is Extract, not Unzip. Any chance you're seeing that?

well, depending on the OS your using, The default location for downloads is c:\users\(yourname)\Downloads\ for windows vista/7. If you have windows vista/7 you should be able to right click and extract those files. If not, you can download either winrar or 7zip for free (trial version for winrar with full functionality i believe), install and right click the downloaded file and extract.

and if all else fails...

I had issues rooting my warp, I was just about to give up and I read in another thread that changing to another USB port on your computer can help as some ports aren't "recognized". I tried that-(I was trying to use a port on the front of my PC and I unplugged my speakers and hooked the phone in there.) VIOLA!!! now I'm rooted and enjoying all the joys of superuser and adfree, and really enjoying the wireless tethering. Watch knoxville363's root vid and it's just too easy....;)

Hey, which wireless tethering app are you using?
 
crazygurl,
Just a thought:
Did you try a different data cable? My data cable went bad. The cable would still charge the phone, but the PC no longer recognized the phone. Got a new data cable and the PC started recognizing the phone again.
 
The cable shouldn't be bad I just got this phone a week ago it recognizes it and it even reboots after the whole process just no root
 
I read all posts and watch the video and everything sounds good if you know what are you doing. So, after the one click root can you wireless tether? I just bought the warp today and I'm not able to tether; so this is one of my reason to root. please help.

Wireless Tether for Root Users works when rooted.
 
no really, cause I have a motorola i1 and I rooted, and it get connected but don't get internet access. I get a "Enabling NAT Rules failed". That's why I bought the warp thinking that it will have an netfilter-enabled kernel since is a android 2.3. while motorola i1 is android 1.5. help please.

Dude he answered you already. Wireless Tether for Root Users is an app in the market and it works for the warp if your rooted.

Just root your phone, go to Android Market and install Barnacle WiFi. You're done. That's it.
 
Thank you, it worked in zte warp. Now Why it won't work on motorola i1, and I mean the tethering thing? Because it is rooted fine.
