Idk what I'm doing wrong. I noticed that the directions mention "engineering/dev spl bootloader [1] (or has a dev phone) + a recovery image with busybox and adbd running as root [2] to make full system backups. " on your device but it specifies for teh G1. So I guess I'm not sure if I need that stuff or not.
Anyone able to follow my rant and help I'd really appreciate it!
btw: Here is the xda thread i referenced: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459830 |
The easiest way to find out if you rooted is to download that screen shot app in the market called 'picme' if that app works and you can connect, congratulations.
Now as far as the recovery image and nandroid goes, follow this thread
