Me too, there and AndroidForums. What I've been wondering is how much different are the two ROMs? Now that they've rooted 1.5, shouldn't it be fairly easy to do 2.1? Or is that just because I know nothing about developing?

I'm guessing it can't be to hard for them but im dumb when it comes to root so I dk....and to my previous post I'm sorry above goes to show how dumb I really am lmao

lol just *228 it. it should help it. you had to *228 it when you first got the phone so it wont hurt to do it again

The eris root file is actually a 2.1 upgrade as well. so they end up with a rooted version of 2.1. no version of 1.5 is rooted, to root you must upgrade. not the same as the leaked version, slightly different and older... but still root access. the reason you cant root the leaked version is because the rooted file is an older version (can't go backwards) I'm in the waiting boat too, loaded leaked 2.1. I'm sure the devs are cooking up some roms for their rooted erises....
