Rooting your G1 made easy.

[All~G1]

I dont think that exist yet, or may not ever. Most ppl who were rooted waited for JF RC33 v1.41 so that we wouldnt lose root. As long as google didnt plug the whole where the XDA devs exploited it, I see no reason why it cant be done.

and once you backup

how do you restore

From what I understand you have to have ADB running on your desktop to be able to push/pull files.

and from what i understand, adb isn't mac compatible

So I'm basically SOL until they create a downgrade from RC33?

Sorry I dont have an answer to that

If its possible.

I'm pretty sure you can, if I'm reading this thread right then queensnewbie just did it ( page 18 of this thread is where this all started )

Looks like they didn't block the downgrade path from what little I've gathered.

As far as mac support for abd it looks like it is supported , don't ask me how to install it though lol .

Root can be done from stock RC33. Follow as if you had stock RC30. 1) downgrade to RC29 2) gain root, etc... 3) load new bootloader 4) flash JF RC30 5) flash JF RC33 6) flash JC RC33 Radio. Lots of steps but works perfectly. I had no problems with the market as some have had just going from a rooted RC30.

adb is fully compatible and I think easier to work with in a Mac. I use it
d/l android-sdk-mac_x86-1.0

Yeah...after I was told here I couldn't do it I went over to xda and asked and they pointed me in the same direction...I'm already rooed now.

And I have been back here giving advice now for people rooting and downgrading and what not.

Sorry...forgot to come back to this thread.

I came back to give to the community.
