Guest Paul Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 Let's work together to get the device rooted! :D My early discoveries... - You can enter what seems to be the bootloader by powering on with 'camera' held down, however fastboot doesn't see the device - ADB doesn't see the device by default, you have to edit adb_usb.ini in ~/android/ and add the line '0x0502', then it works after restarting the adb server - asroot2 doesn't work - instantroot.apk doesn't work Anything to add peoples? :( P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 OK, so i've got fastboot to see the device by doing the following (which is just trying to flash any old boot.img)... 'fastboot -i 0x0502 boot boot.img' It looks like it's a locked bootloader as that fails. :D P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 To enter recovery, turn device on with camera and volume down pressed. When you release, device will boot to recovery. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 Not sure the bootloader is security locked now, just need to make a boot.img that'll work! :D P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
