rooting with no 3g

[dippedinsauce]

i have a question is there anyway to root your phone without 3g

i did a hard reset with my phone and couldnt log into the gmail account during the phone setup so i ended up having to use a friends sim with 3g luckily he was with me

but i wanted to root my phone tonight but i saw some videos where the guy had to re-setup his phone

3g isn't required for rooting or for registering the phone.

well i just dont want to get stuck not being able to use my phone because it cant "connect to google servers" to log in thats what happened when i hard reset

[constellanation]

you do have to have data set up but not 3g.

If you flashed back to RC29 to start the rooting process, you can force the wifi setup with an ADB command. So you don't even need a data plan. Actually, you don't even need a SIM, but we don't have to get into that

well first step is flashing back to rc29 right? then i have to flash jf rooted rc33 ?

Negative.

Back to unroofted RC29, then to rooted RC30, then the JF's RC33.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Its a little more then that.. but there are some real helpful threads here in the AC. Just go to the search box and type in "rooting the g1 made easy" have fun from there

It looks like I'll be rooting my phone soon. If cupcake comes out and it doesnt have multi touch then I'll be switching over. This rumor of Google not wanting to do it due to a possible Apple lawsuit has me pissed the **** off.

Well the current Jf rc 33 has multi touch and I'm loving everything about my rooted phone.
