App that roots/OCs/multi-touches and tethers for $5

[Martin030908]

Now that you (camel) have come by... I feel much better about using this application, knowing that answers to questions can come directly from the source. I will be taking the plunge this evening

Quick question to dev... (even though I already got a good answer from someone earlier) "What needs to be done to return the phone to non rooted, should I decide to uninstall the app and un root?"

There is a signed update.zip that you can grab from Google that will return you to absolute stock (remove root, flash stock recovery, etc etc). I'll add an option to the updater in a future release to assist you in doing this, but be warned that it's another large (64MB) download.

Oh ok. So the 2.0.1 update.zip I used to manually update would return me to stock?

Camel when I have the black screen should it say sholesmod updater in the notification window? How long is too long? About 30 min so far?

10 seconds is too long. After you give SU permission to the app, you must relaunch it; just tap home and reopen it from the app tray. Also, if you haven't already, install the 0.0.2 update from market. It fixes an issue with the downloads window hogging the CPU.

will do
thanks!

This is the step everyone is missing. I waited over a Hour and a half then did this and it started downloading instantly.

Yep Yep! I waited for an hour and a half with the black screen. Then I hit the Home button, and re-launched the app and the download started instantly.

Look for an option named "remove car dock" and uncheck it. I'm not sure which menu it's on, since it has been a while since I've installed 1.2. You might want to ask the ROM maintainers (Berzerker and trevorj) about these questions, since it doesn't really have to do with the updater apk.

Nope, just wait for it to dismiss itself. After it finishes downloading, it verifies the MD5, which can take a few moments. If it takes longer than 10 seconds or so, something may have gone wrong; you may want to cancel and restart the download. You'll have to use the 'back' button (instead of home) to kill the running activity in this case.

Okay I have a black home screen for an hour now. I did the press home, that didnt work. Whats wrong

 

[sincal]

Did you press home then relaunch the app..??

 

[pc747]

not to blow smoke, but if you continue to provide the support that you do then I do not see a problem with the $5 price tag (i have no problem paying more). I can understand why you would say "donations" but that is not too high of a price to pay. You did all the work so that so that we no cussing at the phone/computer and complaining to people about our phones not working, or worse case scenario bricking it.
