How to Upgrade HTC Evo 4G to Android 4.0.3 ICS Firmware

It was only a matter of time before Ice Cream Sandwich came to the HTC Evo 4G. Users of this HTC device can now enjoy a taste of Ice Cream Sandwich, thanks to independent developers at the XDA Developers forum.

An alpha version of the Android 4.0.3 firmware was recently released for the HTC Evo 4G, put together by dedicated third-party developers. At the moment, there is no official news when this particular device will receive an official update from HTC, but for those of you who can’t wait to run ICS on your HTC Evo 4G devices, here’s a quick list of what currently works in the firmware.

• Wi-Fi
• Bluetooth
• Audio
• Carrier service
• Touchscreen
• Data Usage Stats
• GPS

Because this is still developer preview/testing version, there’s no definitive list of what doesn’t work. The developers, however, promised that once a beta is released, they’ll be able to draw a list of what bugs need to be removed.

Requirements

Before you begin applying this update, there are a few things you’ll need to do to facilitate a smooth updating process:

• Back up all the data currently found on your phone. This will allow you to save your data should it be corrupted or lost during the update process. Do not back up your data with HTC Sync as there is no guarantee that you’ll be able to access HTC Sync after applying this update.
• Make sure there is at least 70% charge on your HTC Evo 4G’s battery to prevent the phone from shutting down in the middle of the update process
• Uninstall all antivirus applications present on your computer as they may interrupt the update process
• Make sure you’ve enabled USB Debugging on your device. You can do this through the path “Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging”.

Instructions

Once you’ve completed the installation requirements, you may now proceed to applying the ICS 4.0.3. firmware to your HTC Evo 4G.

1. Download the Evervolv Acies 2.1.0 preview 1 ROM (based on Android 4.0.3 ICS) package into your computer.  Get the update file here.
2. Download the Google Apps (gApps) package from here and save it to your computer.
3. Connect your HTC Evo 4G to your computer with the USB cable.
4. Copy the ROM and gApp packages into the root of your phone’s SD card.
5. Disconnect your HTC Evo 4G from your computer.
6. Turn off your phone and reboot it into bootloader mode by holding down the Volume Down key while pressing the Power Button.
7. From the bootloader mode menu, select Recovery.
8. Once in Recovery mode, select “Clear Storage” to delete all the cache data from your phone.
9. Next select “Install zip from SD Card” from the menu and select the ROM package file you saved to the phone earlier.  Flash the gApps package in the same manner.
10. After the update files have been flashed, select “++++Go Back++++” to return to the main recovery menu.
11. Select “Reboot system now” from the menu.
12. After your phone has rebooted normally, check whether the flashing was successful.  Go to Settings > About Phone > Firmware version to find out whether it says Android 4.0.3.

Congratulations!  You’ve successfully upgraded your HTC Evo 4G to Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich via the Evervolv Acies ROM.

HOW TO ROOT HTC Rezound

HOW TO ROOT HTC Rezound

Video tutorial

I've spent pretty much all day on this and wanted to get it out as soon as possible. There have been a lot of scripts floating around there that have a lot of great features, but not one that single-handedly did everything I wanted for my specific Rezound. Therefore, I've developed rEZoundRoot to help make the Rezound rooting process a little easier.

All you have to do is download the .zip file and extract it to somewhere on your hard drive. Then, copy your unique Unlock_code.bin that you obtained previously into the /tools/ folder and run the script. Follow the instructions and you're good to go!

UPDATE 1/4/2011: Fixed some typos, changed the recovery to install Amon Ra instead of Clockwork Mod, and fixed an issue where adb did not wait for the device before pushing ZergRush... Sorry for those who were having issues with getting root from the script.

UPDATE 1/31/2012: Actually added the Amon Ra recovery.img to the package. Previously had overlooked this and it was still installing the old version of Clockwork Mod.

UPDATE 3/5/2012: Updated to version 1.5 in order to reflect the most recent rooting process. Got rid of the Zerg Rush method because it's pretty much irrelevant now. Allows for either temp or perm pushing of Amon Ra recovery, which allows for the pushing of Superuser and SU per the provided instructions. Eventually I'd like to include the stock RUU in order to get those of us who didn't grab the OTA download all set up, but for right now I'm leaving it out to cut down on size. As always, leave questions in the comments. By the way... In case you haven't noticed by now, the text in the screenshot is red. The text in the actual program is blue. I'm not color blind, I'm just too lazy to update the screenshot... But you already knew that, didn't you?

Root Micromax A73

Root Micromax A73

But some apps that have been loaded on A73 are completely useless and thus you may want to get rid of them. Now, here comes the need to root Micromax A73.

Rooting procedures are mind boggling because they help in making the android device free and, post rooting the user has complete control over the operating system. This provides real thrill to those who want to enhance the features and user experience on their android. But rooting is actually a risky procedure. Thus we recommend that people with not so good technical knowledge must keep away from such procedures. Just read the disclaimer as given below before rooting.

Disclaimer: Rooting an android phone makes the warranty of the phone void. Apart from this, some other risks that may be involved include the risk of bricking, risk of the phone getting damaged as well as loss of important data. Thus we recommend that you should not root the phone unless and until you have the desired confidence levels or at least you know what you are doing.

Note: It is important to note that developer msj003 on android forum has tested this rooting procedure successfully just a few days back. We rely on this information and provide you the rooting procedure in that context.

Root Micromax A73

Download Unlock Root tool from here: http://www.unlockroot.com/ on your PC.

Now, check USB debugging. This can be done on your phone with: Settings->Applications and enabling the USB Debugging.

Keep the phone charged to the extent of 60-70 percent. This is because, if in between the procedure, the charging gets drained, the entire process will go waste.

Open Unlock root tool and click on Root.

Select the device.

Now, just wait for a while. You are done.

Soon, after the procedure is over your device will achieve root access. Once you root the phone, you can remove bloatware, add important apps and manage your Android independently.

 Some more information about Unlock Root Tool

How to root Micromax A70

How to root Micromax A70

Rooting comes with several pros and several cons. While you decide to root an android you must weigh the risk benefit ratio and based on that you must move ahead. For app developers and android developers this is a passion. I am sure they would never get into such weighing measures or so. These geeks would be desperate to test the root process. Micromax A70 is an amazing android device, but not much has been tried, tested and written about this. I am sure many new developers might have tried rooting Micromax A70, but might have remained unsatisfied with the results. But in reality, rooting and unrooting Micromax A70 is very simple as compared to other Android phones. The credit for this simple procedure goes to ‘Z4 Root app‘. So, here’s the Step by Step Process to know How to Root Micromax A70 and Install Custom ClockworkMod Recovery 4 with Rom Manager. But before you try that read the disclaimer as given below:

Disclaimer: It must be noted that we shall not be responsible for any damage caused to your Micromax A70 due to rooting procedure. However, if you have any doubts you can contact us and we will surely help you. Androidust.com has produced the given information with care but rooting the phone makes its warranty void. Root it at your own risk.

Root Micromax A70 step by step

1. The first step is to download Z4Root v1.3 from here.
2. After that install it using any file manager.
3. Now enable USB Debugging with this way, go to settings>applications>development and enable usb debugging.
4. Now after that start Z4Root and click on root.

You will be given a choice that whether you wish to root Micromax A70 with complete root or soft root. The basic difference is, when you wish to do unrooting of complete root, you will have to use the same app again along with hard root. In case of soft root merely rebooting the device will unroot the handset.

Difference between Soft root and Hard root.

Soft root: Many people just want to try rooting to test something or just to try it out to see how’s theperformance after the phone is rooted. They might not want their phones to be rooted permanently. For them, soft root is handy since once the phone is restarted, it reverses all the rooting process done and makes the phone unrooted as it was earlier before rooting. So once you switch off your phone after this process, the root access is gone !

Hard root: This method will root your device permanently and it stays rooted even after restarting your phone. This method is mostly used. Even though this root is permanent, this can also be reversed if you want with the same rooting tool. Since rooting voids the phone’s warranty, unrooting or reversing the process comes in when you need claim the warranty.

ClockworkMod Recovery with ROM manager app

Note: This process is not needed if you want to only root your phone. This process will only help you to enhance the features of your rooted phone.

Now, since you have rooted the phone, it would be great to try ClockworkMod Recovery with ROM manager app. This is something that will make your Android phone highly functional. With this functionality you can take up partitioning your memory card, zip file flashing etc. For this procedure you will require a Rooted Micromax A70, the device battery to be charged at 50-60% for avoiding any sort of hampering, ROM manager App ( You can download it from Android market from your phone:  ROM manager ) and internet connection on your phone. Before you start download and install ROM manager App from Android Market or Google play now. Once you have installed that, follow the instructions below:

Instructions

• First open ROM Manager and then select the Flash ClockWorkModRecovery (The first option).
• Once you do that, you will get the list of devices as pop up and you need to select A70.
• Now, let the download complete. This will definitely take some time and also it will install a few files.
• When this is done tap Reboot Into Recovery.
• Congrats, your Micromax A70 will be reboot into ClockWorkModRecovery.

It is vital to note that in this you will now have to use volume rocker for up and down movement and the power key will be the button for selection. Also if you have a Micromax A75 with you then you can check out how to root Micromax A75 here.
