[HOW TO] Gain Permanent Root on CL14 Out-The-Box and Backup/Restore Customizations

[Yay 4 Juggs]

ok flashed with joey's latest...still having issue with being able to dl from the am...no themes are in place...just the same sunflower pic that was on it from the start...

Not sure if anyone else knows about this, seems Zefie is going to stop developing kernels because he's getting a TP...
I'll update my HOW TO when and if needed to reflect using Joey's or SpeedRabbits kernels

As you may or may not have heard from my Twitter or its followers, I am getting my Samsung Moment replaced with an HTC Touch Pro.
As my final goodbye to the Moment, I don't want all my work to go to waste...

He goes on to say he's willing to give all his dev stuff to someone who wishes to continue development...

I read this a week or two ago, they are trying to figure out who is going to take and upload all his stuff on SDX Devs. Who knows what will happen. He has left for another device before, seems to bash the Moment, then comes back to it....Having owned TP's, Diamonds, etc...etc.... that is definitely a downgrade IMO.

Do you have PC Studio installed on your computer? It is necessary to remove all existing drivers before install Sprint Utility...

when you plug your phone into your computer via USB, does it charge? Does it show that USB is plugged in and gives you the option to mount your SDCard?

If your phone does show it's plugged in USB and you can mount your SDCard I'd recommend trying these things
Remove all of the Samsung software you have installed including all drivers
Reboot your computer
Install Sprint Utility
Browse to C:\Program Files\Samsung Electronics\SWUpgrade\Driver and install Samsung_Mobile_USB_Driver(V5.2.0.0)_V1.2.1060.0.ms i
Reboot computer
Try using Sprint Utility again, remember it's important to follow the prompts the utility gives you exactly no shortcutting either
