Root problem - Universal Androot

1sved1

Newbie
I am trying to root my HTC Hero (Sprint) using Universal Androot - got it on the phone and ran it and it says: Failed! No~~~Fu goo~~~

Anybody have a clue what that means?
 
SaleenFiend...I'm sure the OP appreciates your offer to help, but the link you posted, as andygu3 correctly noted, is specific to the Sprint HTC EVO. It will not work on the Sprint HTC Hero. :eek: :)

Yea, fail on my part! Sorry dude! I just rooted a Hero last week though... use Z4root one click method. Worked flawlessly for me.
 
As Andy mention what version build are you on.

Thanks to all who helped - (special props to Andygu3, Don B and MahaloCat) I now have a rooted phone and it is sweet! I had to return to 2.27... and then Universal Androot worked like a charm. (note: The Unlockr is a great site for this stuff too)
I'm sure I'll have more questions down the road, but I wanted to pass along my thanks to those who put their time and effort in this forum.
 
We are called the 3 Amigos, LOL glad you got it working anything else let us know ;)

Whoa, whoa, whoa! If I had said that I would have preemptively opted out and then had my head examined by a doctor. :D

I am glad most of the forum members here have a good sense of humor. It helps a lot! :)
 
While you guys are here...
I now have CM6 (the "Final" version that was just posted the other day) on my Sprint Hero and I have 3 email accounts on it. I use email shortcuts for each one, but I don't get an "Inbox counter" on each one like I did when I had the stock version. (I have to look in the combined maibox) Checked everywhere in settings, etc - anybody have an idea?

I believe Don is the man to ask on the multiple accounts question....
I don't know..... :eek:
 
If you use LP, then you can put them in your dock station and enable unread count in the LP preference

I went a different route - I took all 3 shortcuts and put them in the trash and then I moved the email icon from apps (it shows the combined mailbox and that has a counter for each account) and put it on my home screen. Now when I get an email I only have to touch one icon and I view all three accounts.

For the record - what is LP? (It used to mean an album...)
