Take Control Of Your Chinese Android Mobile Phone

Hacking your Chinese android mobile phone OS, is also identified as "rooting." Rooting can be a great way to open new features that your wireless provider nixed or Google did not include. Once an Android handset is rooted, you can control every aspect of it – from the user interface to the processor speed - just the similar way you can control your computer.

WARNING: Rooting your cell phone will almost certainly void your phone's warranty, and if anything goes wrong it could very well turn your handset into a costly paperweight. Ensue at your own peril.

Getting Root Access

Before you begin, note that reversing back your Chinese android mobile phone to an earlier version of the Android OS will probably erase any data not stored on the Google's servers or SD Card. With instructions from the CyanogenMod Wiki; download, install RSD Lite and the Chinese android mobile phone USB drivers. Which you’ll then download a copy of the SPRecovery SBF image folder. Hook up the Droid handset to a Windows PC via USB, and turn it off (droid handset). Then while clutching down the power button turn it back on and the up button on the directional key to boot into Recovery Mode.

Once the android mobile phone been booted, run RSD Lite by (right-clicking the icon in Windows then select Run as administrator), choose the SPRecovery SBF image, and then click Start. RSD Lite will eventually apply the upturn image and reboot the Droid. Perhaps if you don’t get a 'Pass' note from RSD Lite once the device has rebooted, apply SPRecovery with RSD Lite once more.

The second procedure is to install a pre-rooted version of Android OS 2.1 on the Chinese android mobile phone. To carry it out, you'll first download the Android OS image then rename it to update.zip. Connect the Chinese android mobile phone to your PC via USB, set up the device, and copy update.zip on the root of the SD Card. Remove the USB cable, power off, and then reboot the Chinese android mobile phone as you hold the "x" key.

When the android mobile phone has booted, make use of volume pads to navigate and the camera button to choose Wipe data/factory reset. Select wipe cache partition, then Install, and let update.zip installation proceed. The update will now be applied, after which the Chinese android mobile phone will reboot into a rooted version of Android 2.1.
