Root with EB13...is it necessary?

KaliS · #1 (**permalink**) 02-23-2011, 01:24 PM

well the title says it all. i just updated to froyo EB13 and of course i have lost root (or that is what i was told would happen). so, not that im all updated i would like to get my apps and backups going and have realized that i used titanium backup to backup my files/apps. when i was going to download it from the market i remembered that it needs root for this app. so hence my questions...is it necessary and if so, is the procedure the same as before? also, is clockworkmod something needed/useful now as well?

One-Click-Root w/Clockworkmod 2.5.5 still works.

If you want to do things and use apps that require root, then yes, it's necessary. Like J.B said, One-Click-Root w/Clockworkmod 2.5.5 still work. That's what I used.

which method should go about rooting and installing clockwork mod

one click root w/clockworkmod 2.5.5 or
[MOD][One Click Root] Clockwork Mod version 3.0.0.5/6 - UPDATED FOR EB13!

i want to have installed EXT4 cause it was required for the rom i was using 454supernova rom

Hey Gten i first updated to 2.2 by the update.zip and the gps lock was good but had issues with the phone reception so then i went back to 2.1 (gps actually locked) then i upgraded with the 200mb file and now the gps is sorry its about 5 blocks away from accurate what do i need to do to make it better?

Get an app on the market called GPS Status and clear & redownload the GPS data
