Root Dead thread.

[jamezelle]

you wouldn't happen to have a link to that 2.1 rom for vogue would ya? would love to have that. haven't been able to find one yet. been playing with a hero build..

oh, sorry, off topic...

sure [Android] Eclair 2.1 Fully working, tweaked for vogue, UPDATED - xda-developers


the dev (mssmison a good friend of mine) is going to be adding the nexus launcher2.apk and the nexus 3d gallery soon to that rom!!!

ok back on topic

 

[jamezelle]

Anything interesting in the kernel?

i havent poked into it at all... just pulled and compiled it

 

[Rrrracer]

live wallpapers work well on the vogue-android 2.1 port which is just clocked at 400Mhz

Nice, eager to see what an optimized Eris runs like (aren't we all LOL)!

 

[trav473]

Thank you very much for both the link and all the work you guys put in, I'm still very much a noob, using my vogue to learn more. gotta love forums like this and XDA..

 

[50chendt]

Does anyone know what the expected date or dates of 2.? are?

 

[Caddyman]

[Frisco]

[EddieVersatile]

Same CPU as the Eris ?

 

[EddieVersatile]

no the Eris is clocked at 528mhz out of the box...
But it is said HTC underclocks their devices by about 200mhz.. (don't quote me, this is just something i've heard)

so, theoretically, we could run ours at around 650-700mhz with no problems, it would probably just eat the battery a little more..

But if the Live Wallpapers are running great on a 400mhz processor, they should be just gravy on the eris, even without overclocking (probably after cleaning up some factory apps)

 

[jamezelle]

Same CPU as the Eris ?

vogue == msm7500 @400Mhz

eris == msm7600 @528Mhz

 

[smacky]

Caddyman, you and I must be checking the same blog. I have that date too.

 

[ashertheplague]

It has already been rooted. Call your VZW store to set up a time for an update. It's not OTA like the other updates, it needs to be connected to their computers where they will put the updated kernel on it.

If you mention Android Forums and your username, you get a free Bluetooth headset and 16GB SD card, so make sure you do that as well.

Everyone keeps asking when this and when that..."Do not conquer the world with force, force only causes resistance" (Tao Te Ching) Resistance is futile (The Borg) Lets just sit back and have some patience.

 

[acidbath5546]

Do you happen to have any bridges for sale; swamp land in Florida, or ocean front view property in Iowa? (I live there, I have some if you need any) I've used my "you can't say that frackin word on tv" snow blower and shovel this year more this year than I care to talk about, anyone want to buy some snow from Iowa along with their free VZW 16 GB card and blue tooth?

LMFAO! holy crap this is cracking me up

 

[trav473]

Hey Smacky, went to VZW store and got my update, bluetooth, and sd card, the guy there said he knows you and said to tell you hey.. BTW my eris is BLAZING fast, compaired to the nexus in the VZW store, this thing rocks harder!!!

 

[deman89]

At the VZW store they decided to do me one better. not only did they root my phone and install a 2.7 ROM, they ripped the snapdragon out of their secret stash of nexus' and put it in the Eris!

 

[Bad Cornflakes]

Cool guys.....Good luck!
