Do not ever accept an update that your phone prompts you to install. Doing so will cause your phone to no longer be rooted.

The security level is a flag stored on the radio; when the flag is S-OFF, the bootloader (HBOOT) will no longer check the signatures of firmware images before flashing them. This allows custom firmware images to be uploaded, including unsigned boot, recovery, splash1, and hboot images (as well as official images that have been modified). When the system is S-OFF, the NAND flash memory protec… text/html 2010-07-07T12:49:06-04:00 http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/how_to_enable_jit?rev=1278521346&do=diff This modification will enable Just-in-Time recompilation (JIT) on Android 2.1 on the Droid Incredible. JIT is a technique that makes interpreted programming languages, like the Dalvik VM that Android applications are programmed in, run faster. Advanced users may want to experiment with enabling JIT to increase responsiveness and performance on their phones. text/html 2010-07-03T14:35:27-04:00 http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/jul3update?rev=1278182127&do=diff This update is in regards to the first version of the EVO 4G OTA2 patch that we released on Tuesday morning. Users that applied this patch (or other similar WiMAX patches created by other users) lost WiMAX (4G) connectivity on their devices. The symptom of this issue is that when the 4G radio is turned on, shortly after it attempts to connect to a 4G network, the radio turns itself off. If you are having any other symptoms (such as the radio continually 'scanning', or the radio refusing to co… text/html 2010-12-19T01:08:14-04:00 http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/onlywithroot?rev=1292738894&do=diff As part of an upcoming effort, unrevoked is doing a survey on why people root their Android phones. So, we'd like to ask you -- what do you do with your rooted phone? What is it that makes your phone so awesome -- so uniquely yours? We'd like your opinion. So, in as much detail as you can, we'd find it immensely useful if you'd describe what you do with your rooted phone that you couldn't do with an unrooted phone.

Put your money where the root is. When you buy root-unfriendly Android devices, you are far more likely to lose root after updates. Stick to the Root-Friendly devices and you'll be safe. This list only ranks phones based on their permanent rootability: the ability to root a phone and replace the boot and system images, and not by any other standard. A phone may be easily rootable, but might have other flaws that make it a poor device. text/html 2010-06-21T19:59:31-04:00 http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/sdcard_data_charts?rev=1277164771&do=diff SDCard Success Data A-Data Cards SDcard Amount SDcard Size SDcard Class 1 4gb 6 2 8gb 6 9 16gb 6 Kingston Cards SDcard Amount SDcard Size SDcard Class 4 1gb 2 4 2gb 2 17 4gb 4 2 8gb 4 2 16gb 2 PNY Cards SDcard Amount SDc… text/html 2010-12-19T00:43:19-04:00 http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/start?rev=1292737399&do=diff ##incredibleroot channel rules Top ten ideas that won't work Windows HBoot Driver Install SDCard Data Charts Only with root! text/html 2010-05-29T11:13:37-04:00 http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/top_ten?rev=1275146017&do=diff * Let's use the trick from the Desire!
