Inc Root!! 12-2-2010 update: v3.22 will root after Nov. update!!

[Adrianh85]

mine keeps getting stuck at the waiting for phone to reboot

[syrguy1969]

Adrianh85....is that after the root tool is done, your disconnected from the PC and trying to boot-up the Inc, or is that while your using the root tool?

If your experiencing this after 'root', try rooting again from scratch and see if that does the trick.

charleskincade...I would try lightninjay's post and see if it works. If not, it may have to do with your PC's wifi settings. (worth a shot)

I loaded this to my sdcard but I don't have a folder for android tether. how do I do this? Do I just create a folder? I tried to download the android tether app to my sdcard. It's just a download and I don't have a program folder once I installed it. I'm lost please respond asap and email me at clarencejoffrion@yahoo.com so I can check when you respond, THANKS!

I will email you, but here it is as easy as I think I can make it:

download and unzip the folder here and save the folder inside it (android.tether) to your SD card (I already placed the bin file in it).

scan this QR code to download and install wifi tether to your Inc:


After that you should be good to go!!

Let me know if this does it for you!!

P.S. Here is another description if I flubbed in the wording:

Quick question, has anyone seen a custom image that allows the android os to connect to ad-hoc networks? I am currently deployed to Iraq and have a number of apps that I want to keep but can not connect, in any way, to the android market to re-download after I root. So I haven't rooted yet. Ad-hoc or wait until I get home to root?

I am a noob and I readily admit it and I'm not sure whether or not I'm violating some forum protocol or not by posting this here but here goes anyway.
I have had pda's in my pocket or always near me, way before there was such a thing as a smart phone.
I've had the HP LX-200, (thought 8 megs was incredible), the HP Jornada, the Treo, the Samsung i760, the XV6700, xv6750, the HTC TP2 and now the Incredible, which is truly incredible.
But I can't get the damn thing to root.
I've uninstalled the HTC-sync and its companion package; I've downloaded and unzipped the Android SDK; I've downloaded and unzipped the unrEVOked recovery reflash tool; I've downloaded and unzipped the modified drivers.

I moved the folder, "android-sdk-windows" to the C:\ drive root and renamed it "sdk".
I ran the SDK Setup.exe and installed 2.1 and all related packages.
I extracted the drivers from the zip file and saved them in C:\sdk\usb_driver.
I created a directory called "unrEVOked", placed the "unrevoked recovery reflash tool" in that directory and ran it to extract a bunch of files, one of which was "reflash.exe".
I set my phone to "USB Debugging".
I plugged the phone into my computer and then ran the program "reflash.exe".

The phone comes up with a white screen with Droids at the bottom of it on skateboards and at the top of the screen is "HBOOT USB PLUS" and below it is, "FASTBOOT", "RECOVERY", "CLEAR STORAGE", and "SIMLOCK". "NANDROID" is not present.

The phone doesn't connect as I ran adb shell in the command prompt only to receive the message, "device not found".

Earlier I did have the device recognized when I moved the file, "android_usb.inf" to my tools directory. But it would not recognize me then as a "Super User".

What am I doing wrong?

Please help?

Oh, one thing is that the "unrEVOked" recovery screen display says at the bottom, "Waiting for bootloader; make sure driver is installed".

Thanks
