HTC Droid Eris :: How To Root Phone / 2.1 Update?

Apr 14, 2010

So i found this link from theunlockr.com which shows you how to root your eris and put 2.1 on it. I want 2.1 but i am not sure about the root. Any cons to rooting? Will i still receive ota updates? Anything i can do with rooted eris that i can't do with non-rooted that would make the phone a lot better? I don't want to overclock it i am just looking for more options with the phone. Will i lose all my contacts and apps by doing this? Can i use different apps like the ones the moto droid can use but i can't because i am on 1.5?

General :: Droid Bionic - Is It Safe To Re-root After Phone Update While Rooted?

Nov 25, 2012

So i had my Droid Bionic (Verizon) rooted a few months back. A few weeks ago, there was an update for android firmware. I went from 2.3.4 to 4.0.4 without realizing I had to un-root my phone before.

The night I updated, my battery just so happened to run out in the middle of the night (the update was done in the morning, so the update process was obviously unaffected). I woke up to AP Flashboot Flash boot error. This was temporarily fixed with me just loading the fastboot menu and selecting Normal Powerup.

But now i would like to re-root my phone, and i was wondering if it is safe to just straight-up root it with my comp. And if im not specific enough, just let me know what information i have to include.

HTC Eris :: Can't Update Usb Driver During 1.5 - 2.1 Root Procedure

May 26, 2010

I am on a replacement phone. 1.5 updated to 2.1OTA trying to root per walkthrough instruction in guide forum.

Firmware 2.1
Baseband 2.40.00.01.22
Kernel 2.6.29-5898f66b
htc-kernel@and18-2 #1

Software 2.19.605.1
Browser WebKit 3.1
PRI 2.11_002
PRL 51866
ERI 5

While following the instructions posted, Step II-10.
Have yellow exclamation in Device Manager,
Get this window during update driver step:
Cannot Continue the Hardware Update Wizard

The wizard could not find a better match for your hardware than the software you currently have installed.

I do have usb_driver folder:
c:AndroidSDKandroid-adk-windowsusb_driver
has subfolder amd64 and i386 along with
android_winusb
androidwinusb86
androidwinusba64
source.properties

AndroidSDK has Installed Packages: Usb Driver package, revision 3

I haven't been able to finish the steps and get ROOT to work.
adb shell commands give me "can't find device"

And keep up the awsome work. the original phone I loaded 2.1 leak v.3. Loved it! Replaced/ warranty exchanged due to poor call reception and echo-ing on the other end.

HTC Droid Eris :: Bricked Phone After OTA Update?

Mar 8, 2010

So if my phone becomes a paper weight after the OTA rolls out then Verizon did it on purpose right? You can't tell me they can't force the OTA to override the leaked version. I would think they would force all the phones to update to their version of the OS. Therefore, if my phone bricks after the OTA then they are just being jerks right?
