Root First attempt at rooting

Wow and Hello! It sounds like there is some progress being made here. I am new to the community as I just got my phone over 2 weeks ago, (of course being samsung R9100). I am not really good at hacking but I am good at testing things. I have about Intermediate experience with Linux :/ I hope I can be of some help. :)



welcome to the clan and please kindly consider pledging for the custom ROM for this phone. See this thread for more details: http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...-metropcs-samsung-galaxy-indulge-4g-m860.html

I just read that they managed to get full root on the HTC Thunderbolt...which as you know is also an LTE phone and is an extremely locked down phone like ours is.

Thought I'd post this to see if it could give you guys any ideas. It's sad how they'll just completely ignore this phone since it's on Metro...and they manage to root the HTC 2 days after it comes out.
