<p>Ok so here it is :) one note before hand please do not replicate / repost this guide (by all means use the method / code / files in other places) but due to things outlined here (<ahref="/2011/04/28/some-thoughts-on-guide-reposting/">http://androidroot.mobi/2011/04/28/some-thoughts-on-guide-reposting/</a>) we would rather this just be linked in other places to keep information up to date :)</p>

<p><spanstyle="">UPDATE 4/5/2011: New blob released! This blob is intended for latest firmware update (V8.2.3.9) and fixes the camera/bluetooth issues! Use V4 for previous updates! If you use V5, replace all occurrences of CWM_BLOB_V4 with CWM_BLOB_V5 in the guide below.</span></p>

125
+
<p>1. extract all of the files from the zip to your adb folder</p>
126
+
<p>2. run "adb push gingerbreakBB /data/local/"</p>
127
+
<p>3. run "adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/gingerbreakBB"</p>
128
+
<p>4. run "adb shell" followed by "/data/local/gingerbreakBB"</p>
129
+
<p>5. Wait up to 10 minutes for gingerbreak to do its stuff, once its done you will have SU (#) symbol</p>
130
+
<h2><spanstyle=""><strong>6. DO NOT CLOSE THE SHELL.</strong></span></h2>
131
+
<p><br>## Note if you do not get the # su symbol the temp root fail, reboot and try again from step 4 ##</p>
132
+

133
+
<p>## This Part Of The Guide Is Installing CWM and insecure boot image ##</p>
134
+
<p><spanstyle="">Update: As some people have pointed out, md5sum does not exist on android, so the guide has been updated to fix it. </span></p>
135
+
<p>Run steps 7 to 9 in a new terminal window</p>
136
+
<p>7. run "adb push CWM_BLOB_V4 /data/local"</p>
137
+
<p>8. run "adb pull /data/local/CWM_BLOB_V4 cwmblob_retransfer"</p>
138
+
<p>9. run "md5sum cwmblob_retransfer"</p>
139
+
<p>10. check that the output string matches the one next file list at the bottom of the page, if not re download and re-push the blob DO NOT CONTINUE if they do not match !</p>
140
+
<p>Step 9 requires the md5sum program available locally on your computer. <spanstyle="">PROCEED FROM STEP 7 IF THE MD5SUM IS WRONG</span></p>
141
+
<p>Return to the shell from step 6 and do the following commands:</p>
142
+
<p>11. run "dd if=/data/local/CWM_BLOB_V4 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4"</p>
143
+
<p>12. reboot the device, on reboot you should see a progress bar indicating the flashing of the "blob"</p>
144
+
<p>13. boot the device. You now have CWM recovery and insecure boot</p>
145
+
<p></p>
146
+
<p>Once you have successfully done the above steps and have insecure boot, you can follow the below steps to get 'full' root and the usual SuperUser app:</p>
147
+
<p>1. run "adb remount"</p>
148
+
<p>2. run "adb push su /system/xbin"</p>
149
+
<p>3. run "adb shell chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su"</p>
150
+
<p>4. run "adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/"</p>
151
+
<p>5. reboot (you now have root and can run root apps)</p>
