Does that mean it won't work with Froyo, just Eclair? I can't find anywhere where it says it works with Froyo...or does it mean it works with Eclair and up OS's?

You scrolling down too much..

[FROYO+ECLAIR] One Click Root w/ ClockworkMOD + Redirector, BusyBox and Remount Scripts, superuser.apk!

is the title..

Yeah, sorry, I guess I'm not explaining myself properly. I don't want the clockwork mod on my phone. I want to use Amon_ra. If installing clockwork is something that i can completely ignore, then i guess I'll use that root with it. i would just rather not even put it on my phone if i dont have to...so youre saying that the other root without clockwork is only for eclair?

By the way, you can tell by the phones that Ive had, i am very versed with windows mobile. I've been cooking roms for years. But I got the Epic last week, and I am a complete Noob when it comes to android and rooting...just an fyi...haha.

It should work I guess..

As for Amon_Ra..it doesn't exists for the Epic..Clockworkmod is the only option.

Wow...thanks...didn't know that. From what I was reading, it seemed more like it had to do with the OS, not the hardware. I guess I'll root the phone with Clockwork. One more question, will having clockwork on the phone inhibit my ability to use Titanium Backup?

I'm using the root with clockwork for froyo. It got to "copying files onto phone", but its been staying there. How long should i wait before it's stuck and not working. I feel like it may be rooted because i can see a lot more folders when i use astro now, including one that says "system". if its still rooting and I unplug the phone, will i brick it?

Yes, just make sure to hit the "Problems?" button before using titanium to download its own busybox

It shouldnt brick your phone..and in worst case you can always odin back.but as I said it shouldn't brick..you can check if your rooted with titanium, it will tell you..make sure you have all 4 drivers installed..that might be why its hanging...

I thought it could be the driver issues, so im starting from scratch. I'm installing the drivers again. I thought i waited long enough before, everyone was saying 5 mintues, but I'm gonna wait a while this time until it says device drivers installed...haha.

When you plug it in..go to device manager and you can see if anything is still left to install..sometimes you may have to unplug it and plug it back in for it to fully install...if that fails..just install drivers manually..they are located in the 16_shrewberry folder

[NipTuck170]

Its still installing....the funny part is, i checked that. Everything in device manager was properly installed.
