Guest HearThatVoiceAgain Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Just asking a few Plus people to confirm it works before I post for all. Last thing I want is to put it out for everyone and it bricks a shitload of phones! :huh: P Very sensible, especially as this is the first time this has been done on this device.

Guest Silver Bullet Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 (edited) What the devil is a WIP user?? My first guess is that in this case WIP stands for "Work In Progress"... Just realised that I have access to that thread... lol. My second guess is that your usual pusher is cheating on you... :-) Edited April 28, 2010 by Silver Bullet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest VGLink Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Hey Paul. I just signed in here because of you. I heard that you are the only one who can root the desire and yet you did it. How long does it take until the normal user can see the tutorial??? Sorry for my bad english, I'm from germany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Wouter Van Daele Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 (edited) Hi, I'm new to this rooting thing so forgive my ignorance, but will there be a way to restore the bootloader to the original one? You know, just in case, to ease my mind I can go back anytime... Edited April 28, 2010 by Wouter Van Daele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neowl Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Just installed a linux virtual disk in anticipation. looking forward to the rooting!
