Progress Check Up

Don't BITE MY HEAD OFF!!!
I am just curious if someone could share what the progress and hang ups are surrounding the root on 2.2. I am really curious to know what's going on in the attempted rooting arena for FroYo.
Please don't comment if you have no idea, I am reaching out to those who can legitimately root the OS.
Thanks for the info in advance.

already a version of 2.2 root released @ http://tinyurl.com/2can6ra

Oh yeah, wow. I asked a QUESTION in the QUESTION section. Se Hablo Retardo?
Again, loads of people who can't read. You have to go about your chit chat and small talk. If you've got nothing to contribute, move along.

actually, it was in the development section before it got moved by mods. Either way, this question has been asked 10000 times since froyo came out. You dont even have to search, just open your eyes!

There's an official thread stickied in Q&A. That should answer your question. That's why its stickied, to prevent these kinds of threads.

Lets all come together for Root 2.2

Calling all devs who are and who are not working on rooting froyo stock 2.2 ...Lets make this thread a meeting point to discuss the hiccups in rooting the Evo with Froyo and work together some how so we can get this thing done ASAP for the community

For real...another 2.2 Please Root Me thread???

yes because I am trying to bring the community together to complete this goal

The development and hacker community are already together.

Come together right now, over me!!

Here come old flattop he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please
Come together right now over me
Sorry but I could not resist... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8LZGQ4MkvQ
MrDSL beat me to it...LOL!!!

Posting a suggestion like that is not going to accomplish your goal (organizing a root effort) or help get 2.2 rooted any sooner.
You became the owner of this thread when you hit the "post new thread" button, you have the OP to do with as you wish. This thread isn't going to just start filling with reports of what people have tried. If you want this thread to serve as a "status-of 2.2" thread then find out what people have tried, try some methods yourself. Post the results of your searching and rooting attempts.
If this thread does become a place where people can come and see the current status of the rooting effort it will be because you keep the OP current.
I'm rooted, and I don't know enough to help blaze this trail. I know what a few people have tried and I know what methods some think are promising but I would like to see a breakdown, similar to THIS THREAD.. well, I WAS gonna link a 2.1 Root-Effort thread that was in the Hero forum before Regaw released his guide. I tried a half dozen searches (my search-fu is not weak) and all I found were a few rooting guides and a BILLION "ROOT???" threads...
Anyway, the guy had all of the methods that he had tried and others had submitted listed in detail along with the outcome of each attempt.
Also, I imagine a list like this would help cut down on the redundant threads.

The sticky thread is already hosting a discussion about this. Some of the Unrevoked team is even there.

If someone wants to help me pay for one (haha) I'll get in on it!

Except it didn't exist yet when most people accepted the OTA.

One question. I know there is currently no way to root stock 2.2 but does any one know if any of the amazing developers on here have made any ground at all or does it just not seem not possible.

There are a few devs that have had this as early as last weekend - hence having the new 1.77 PRI. There is also a new radio associated with this release. It will begin to be pushed OTA by Sprint tomorrow (9/22) - and that is official.

Dont worry about it, just drop it. There are a few people that get pissed because it happens ALOT and by new people. So some people think they have to be rough so other people see and learn also. All I have to say is poor Toastcfh, he has to move all them and deal with the bickering. Just try to read the forum rules

that didn't take long for this thread to incinerate itself

I've been around SDX for a bit and jerdog has proven himself to drop some very accurate knowledge when it comes to release dates and inside info from Sprint. He's stated on a few occasions he's some kind of higher level tech for Sprint on the radio and towers end. I trust his info.

Is this going to mean new kernels once it and the source code are released. Im one of the rookies but im thinking the new stock kernel should have great battery life like the one flipz just released and with the fps fix worked in by htc it should be pretty damn good out of the box.

Cant make up my mind

Argh i cant make up my mind, but if you had to choose would you go with Fresh or EVIO2?!! Decisions decisions.....

Go with Evio 2, its very nice. it looks great without any theme on top of it. It runs great and has some elements from Android 2.2.1. I personally don't care for the kernal that it comes with (Zippy's) so I flashed my trusty netarchy 4.1.9.1, but I have also heard good things about King's #11. Look on page #342 of the Evio 2 thread to find 1.5 (newest version)
Also if you don't want to get flamed things like this should be posted in Q&A. Only Roms, mods, etc. should be posted in Development. Just a heads up

I like evio as well..

Also a lot of people tired of seeing useless threads and stupid questions that have no real answers. Like there's a shortage of opinions on which rom is best.

[Q] Best kernel for cm 7

im sure this has been posted a thousand fold, but i wanted to post one for the personalization of it. What would you say its the best overall kernel for cm7.2. im about to have a crack at using tiamat with it since it was my personal fav on my incredible. any suggestions?

I like aeroevans 8bfs kernel. His 8 cfs is good too but idk the difference really. His ics v9 kernel supposedly works with gingerbread but I haven't tried it

The v9 kernel works really well with cm7. I would really recommend using it. Battery life is much improved.

If you are sure its been asked, why didn't you search for it. Then the next thing is, test for yourself. Every phone responds different. I'm using AOKP with aeros newest kernel and my phone is flipping amazing, but my wife has lockups and a whole lot of other crap wrong.. it also depends on your governer and use that you do with it. Seriously, this is just another pointless thread that could've been in one of the already open ones...

I Dont understand what the problem is. He posted in the correct section, was polite and simply asked for our opinions. Kernels do change, with updates and whatnot while others get left behind. simply searching and grave digging an old thread doesnt really change anything. Just dont want this place to become a thread-prison.
As for the kernels, tiamat hasnt been updated for our phone in ages, a lot of stuff has changed for GB since their last update. JDK kernel is in the same boat. This leaves the various versions of Aero's kernel essentially, i'd go with .8bfs or the v9 ics kernel, which i'm currently using with no problems.

thank you if youre not gonna help then dont post. its people like that thats made alot of great devs leave xda cause of the trollers.
anyways thanks for all the tips ill try em all out. im currently testing out some sense kernels for great battery life any suggestions there?

I fully agree. When you get a new device you are not sure what is old and what are outdated mods and what is the newest thing sometimes. I agree we should search first. But I have had times where I search and google and still no answers. Then when I finally post a question there is usually someone making a refference about another kitty being killed. I came from the Droid X2 which the phone was crap and Motorola sucks A$$ for locking the phones down. However that forum was very friendly and eager to help out noobs. I do understand some of the questions asked are a little crazy and you can tell they did not search. But if you are pissed about someone posting just ignore it and let some other helpful person respond. And if they post in the wrong section the MR Highway will come get them!! He is awesome at that! Keep up the great work Mr Highway. Sorry just my .02 cents. Also as the noobs learn they help out other noobs and hopefully you respected devs can ignore these simple questions. The DX2 was my first phone and I had no idea what I was doing. With the help of the DX2 community I got up to speed and was able to help others. Look at my thanks count. One noob helping another. I asked plenty of questions when I first came on here had some helpful feedback and some smart remarks. Well needless to say I am now comfortable with flashing Roms,Kernel,radio and moving back and forth from AOSP,Sense, and ICS and I found all the fixes and work around ICS by reading the threads and not asking questions here. Just some food for thought.

Again, our phone lacks a large variety of kernels, however the few we have are solid (probably the reason we dont have 2000 of them xD)
The only kernel i've really used for sense is drellisdee's #21 kernel, it comes with all the usual cpu governors and is included in a lot of ext4 sense roms. It works on sense 2.1, 3.0 and 3.5 in my experience as well.
Hopefully that was of some help :s

Yes, he did post this in the right section if it was just kernel and not ROM specific with CM7.2 why just question for AOSP or sense? And I wasn't rude in my response to him as far as him posting a question. I am irritated knowing that we have just recently had a lot of problems in this thread with people just simply asking questions they could've searched for and reposting the same thing 8,000,000 times (su, killall drmserver) ya that is familiar
