Guest Hoopstroops Posted May 9, 2010 Report Share Posted May 9, 2010 Hi All I would like to say thankyou for the guide's and the help I received rooting my Legend! I now have a question regarding future ota updates! My main reason's for following the guide were to allow me to remove the Vodafone branding and unlock the hidden market apps and also to allow me in the future receive the ota updates direct from HTC along with those who purchased simfree Legends! My handset is now rooted and I have a handset without branding but will I beable to receive the ota's and was it or was it not really required to root to achieve this? Many thanks!

Guest profesional Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 I have followed the guide, but when I get to the part of In the terminal window, enter either 'step1-windows.bat', './step1-mac.sh' or './step1-linux.sh' as appropriate. I get from the command prompt after running step1-windows.bat < waiting for device > and it hangs there. Any ideas about what could be wrong?

After you get the red ! connect your phone to usb en type step1-windows. Rooted my legend, first with r3, later r1. After 2 reboots can't install any apps, insufficient memmory... I delete all cashes, installed rom again several times but error remains. Hope in the near future it will be solved. Thanks anyway for the great work that's done here!

Guest JCATS Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 I rooted my Legend yesterday, but i'm totally not happy with it, the phone resets itself many times a day and several errors occur during the day. I would like to reset it to the original RUU 1.31.001 like I had before. Anyone a clue where I can find that version (Europe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rajasyaitan Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Hi guys. I did everything right until the end of rootupdate.zip. So I thought that was it, reboot and I'll have a rooted Legend. When I reboot however, the phone keeps on rebooting endlessly. Any idea what went wrong or how can I fix it? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest flyguye Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 (edited) Hi there, I am a total Newbie & this is my 1st Android phone, a HTC Legend Asia. Big thanks to Paul & those who have helped many noobs like me. I have successfully made my gold card & rooted my phone with stock R3. I had only one issue i could find was, i couldn't use mobile data to connect to the internet. It turned out the problem was the APN section was totally blank. Got that fixed. So if any of you newbies encounter this problem, download an APN backup app to save you having to enter it all manually. I am considering a subscription to Modaco but i hope my queries can be answered by Paul or others in the know before i take the plunge. I like the HTC Sense UI, HTC contacts & Mail UI & Widgets. What i'm looking for is basiccally a stock HTC ROM minus stuff i don't need, like twitter, friendstream, facebook & a few others. Thus making it lean with only what i need. So is this possible to do? If so how do i go about it? Thank you very much cheers, Su EDIT: I have taken the plunge & have become a plus member. Disregard my questions above but i have a new question though, how can i manually remove a program from my system? thanks Edited May 12, 2010 by flyguye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
