JFv1.51 images are out!
May 24, 2009I’ve released a new set of images based on the US/ADP/EU versions of CRB43.
update: The US and UK builds have been updated to fix the MT browser issue. New build enviroments and CHANGES for them too. See this post for more info
—-
There are no major changes from my JFv1.50 release, except a few new kernel modules.
As usual, I don’t guarantee whether you’ll have to wipe or not. My advice: Make a backup with nandroid then try the update without a wipe. If you run into problems, do a wipe or restore your backup.
They should be available on the JF Updater app. Or you can download and install them manually

Yeah, I have been waiting for it sooo long…

May 24th, 2009 at 1:48 pm
Long? its been 24hrs since the URL was found, that aint long. The 1.5 Upates features have been in the other builds, I dont know why people are so crazy about it. I think that root is more important then having a “New” build
On Topic: Great Job JF
Justin Reply:
May 25th, 2009 at 12:07 pm
Maybe because we don’t want the ADP version taking up all that extra memory? Don’t be so quick to dismiss without a little perspective.
Thanks, JF.

I loaded the new build and I can’t seem to get my camera to work(camcorder or stills), has this happened to anybody? I tried wiping and reloading, still nothing.

Hi, Thanks for the great work. Ive just installed this on a UK vodaphone HTC magic. It boots fine, and I love the multitouch browser support. Everything is working except bluetooth or Wireless. Ive tried wiping and reinstalling several times, but the same result every time. Is there a different WLAN.KO for this devices, as the kernel logs indicate the issue is with this?
thanks in advance.

Yes, german locales are included in the EU build. I’ve just updated form previous english JF image to the new EU image. Seems to work perfectly after a short test.

What are the pros and cons. With jf 1.51us vs jf adp1.51 ??
May 24th, 2009 at 2:20 pm
my only question is about compatibility with recovery image .. do we need a new one since the 1.42US recovery?
May 24th, 2009 at 3:04 pm
Thanks JF, great work as always.
May 24th, 2009 at 3:10 pm
Does it fix making your calls appear UNKNOWN and having your call list UNKNOWN? Cause with the current 1.5 Cupcake I have all my calls appear UNKNOWN and all the calls in the call log appear UNKNOWN even if the caller I dialed is in my call log.

Wait for the contacts to sync. And if you changed flavors you need to wipe.
Brandon Reply:

I reinstalled the software and my phone now fixed the caller ID and the accelerometer works again! Your software is the best! Only one thing is that the Wifi-Tethering for Root Users says it’s not root, but there is an hack kernel made for official 1.5 Firmware that when I install, it works the Wifi-Tethering.

When you say wipe, do you mean wipe the phone or wipe the contacts? I’m having the same issue but only since updating JF1.5 (adp) to 1.51 (UK).
May 24th, 2009 at 3:11 pm
@Lucid
No, the same ol 1.42/1.43 recovery image still works fantastic.
May 24th, 2009 at 3:21 pm
For some reason i think the new images removed my root access is this true?

go into terminal type
su
busybox df -h (enter)
if it shows up system/sd
then do app2sd, there is a problem with your card not being located, im having this problem, it worked now it doesnt, or you can try doing this,
su
mkdir /system/sd/apps
if it says read only and wont do it, then your screwed like me. i just did a update to us and its just stayiing on the loading screen, not freezing, screen turns off but jsut keeps loading,, ill wait for a bit to see, weird…
May 24th, 2009 at 3:43 pm
I ran the updater and everything looked good, but it still prompts me to update. How do I know it really updated?
STARSCREAM Reply:
May 29th, 2009 at 6:49 pm
go into your terminal emulator and type “getprop ro.modversion” minus the quotes. and you should get a reading that says JFv1.51
May 24th, 2009 at 4:00 pm
Fantastic job! Thanks, JF! I just updated to your US 1.51 image, and everything went very smoothly.
May 24th, 2009 at 4:32 pm
1.51 eu removed my root access

May 24th, 2009 at 4:35 pm
Do a wipe. I tested that exact image and it worked fine.
May 24th, 2009 at 4:35 pm
Hi everyone. I am a little confused, and would like some help. What is the difference between this one, and the JF 1.5 firmware upgrade? What is the difference between firm and image? Do I have to get both of them, or is just one ok? Should it be this one because it is more recent? Also, will I lose root access?
May 24th, 2009 at 4:42 pm
Hi, can i update from the adp-version to the eu version w/o wipe? Please reply!
Thnx!
May 24th, 2009 at 4:45 pm
I dont know if this was supposed to change but my phone still says is a DeV phone 1…Also no Myfavs or Amazon Mp3 Store
May 24th, 2009 at 4:46 pm
one thing i noticed .. anything in app-private has no icon showing
May 24th, 2009 at 4:48 pm
actually scratch that i don’t thin i have lost root cause the jf updateer managed to reboot my phone successfully, the telnet app didn’t work though but i wasn’t prompted for a super user request that time :/

Is the EU build what used to be the UK build? (RC9)
Is upgrading from RC9 (JF) to this build likely to require a wipe?
May 24th, 2009 at 5:10 pm
Hi, which is the correct recovery.img and SPL to be used with this fw? could you please indicate me a link to download them? I’m missed up now!

Make sure you update with the proper 1.51 img. If you are updating from 1.5 ADP you should use th 1.51 ADP img not 1.51 US,EU, etc. I did this by accident and was stuck on the android boot for 3 hrs. LMFAO! I had to do a sys recovery then update with the proper img and BINGO! Good Luck! E-Mail me with any Qs brnbock@aol.com

sorry from what I have read here you can. All you have to do is wipe your phone before installing the jf1.51 US.
May 24th, 2009 at 5:40 pm
@nayan this is more stable than the 1.5 build which i think was missing some stuff like iptables not sure though :S you wont lose root although the telnet app wont work unless you run telnetd from something with su access the terminal app doesn’t seem to be able to get it.
if you’re already rooted you wont need a new recovery.img.
the firmware is the actual os and as far as i can tell the recovery.img is used in flashing the phone and the modification to it lets the subsequent buildd have root access, i’m not sure about this though i’ve not looked into it.
May 24th, 2009 at 6:26 pm
Hey guys
First I would like to thank jesusfreke for all the great images he made, keep up the good work.
But I have 3 dumb questions (I am still new in rooting the G1):-
1- Is there any image with built in MSN and YAHOO messengers??
2-I know That cupcake fixed the problem that when ur mobile on stand by the wifi goes off but the jf 1.5 had the same issue so did the jf 1.51 fix it or not??
3- how to do apps to sd and is there any problems doing it with jf 1.51??
Thanks

runme.sh mount really should be -o noatime This was mentioned before but wasn’t changed. No downside, but very useful on a flash fs for both speed and lifetime of memory. Actually, it would be useful
on the internal phone mounts as well.
May 24th, 2009 at 8:26 pm
The runme.sh mount still isn’t -o noatime. For a flash fs, this is important for both speed and longevity. In fact, ALL mounts on the phone should be -o noatime whenever possible.
Micha Reply:
May 27th, 2009 at 12:36 pm

When are we going to get the ability to transfer files via bluetooth? Is there an app that can do this?
May 24th, 2009 at 11:10 pm
Can anyone give me feedback real quick… first and foremost, i made a nandroid backup right before switching from the JF 1.5 to 1.51 US and i love having the IM, myfaves, and WORKING EMAILS (other than Gmail) so i believe i am keeping it. however i would love to know if i restore to that point before i changed builds if it is going to take me back to the ADP 1.5 i was using… i’d like to keep the new US version (which seems to still have root, how is this verifiable?)

And what would be a long time? I waited for 90 mins now…
MichaelSF Reply:
May 25th, 2009 at 7:13 pm
I am posting this for others who might browse the comments to see what’s up.
Like MichaMicha, when I used JFUpdater to automatically install 1.51 it downloaded fine and installed. But then it hung up at the loading screen, the animated “Android” screen.
I waited for about 20 minutes before I concluded something was amiss.
I powered off by removing my battery.
I correctly assumed that the downloaded file was “update.zip” (Like I said, I was walking and doing the update so I could not access the chip to see what files were on it.)
Because I remembered JF’s and other’s updating instructions, I pressed the end and home key to get to the recovery menu.
I then remembered JF always saying to do a wipe when things go wrong with an update. So I pressed “alt w”
While still in that menu I then pressed “alt S” to tell the G1 to installed the “update.zip” file on the SD card.
The big moment of truth for me was watching to see if the install would start or if I would instead get a “file not found” message.
The rest is history, as the saying goes. The install went smooth and the G1 did not get stuck on loading, this second time around.
May 25th, 2009 at 9:51 am
Hey guys I got the US version jf on my g1 now ,it works fine. Thanks jf ! Other thing I am having trouble connecting to the app store. Server error pops up twice then forceclose.

Sadly, ExtUSB to 3.5mm audio cables won’t work with Cupcake. It may or may not be intentional on T-mobile’s part. I had the same issue with JF1.5ADP, and from my research, it looks like an issue with the OTA update.
Here is some info that describes my problem:
“Please beware that this product does not work with the Android 1.5 “cupcake” software release as of 15 May 2009. It works with the previous release of the system. I will update this review when I get it to work. ”
http://www.amazon.com/OEM-Converter-Cingular-T-Mobile-Cavalier/dp/B001RXTDP2
“Note that the cupcake update breaks compatibility of the phone with the HTC 3-to-1 adapter: after the update the adapter can’t be used to direct music to the 3.5mm headphones jack any longer.”
http://www.androidcentral.com/did-anyone-us-get-android-15-cupcake-update
“I’ve noticed something simliar. for me the music app works fine for headphones but not for the HTC 3.5mm converter so I can send the sound to my stereo. charging works through it fine, and it worked before I upgraded.”

Have you actually tried one with any of the CRB43 roms? The 3-in-1 adapter that I have is working fine.
Justin Reply:
May 25th, 2009 at 1:30 pm
Yeah, sorry for being unclear. I discovered the issue when I went from JF1.42 to JF1.5ADP, so I tried a few things (including a wipe) but nothing worked. Then, I downgraded to 1.42 and the cable began working again.
Yesterday, JFUpdater notified me of the JF1.51 T-Mobile US CRB43 ROM update, so I downloaded and installed. I didn’t wipe because everything was working well. However, I tested my ExtUSB to 3.5mm cable and the same issue occurred. The audio comes out of the phone speaker regardless of whether or not the cable is plugged in.
The frustrating thing is that my ExtUSB to 3.5mm CONVERTER works fine. When I plug my headphones into the converter, the audio switches from the phone speaker to the headphones. It’s the ExtUSB to 3.5mm male audio cable that doesn’t work.
I did notice that in JF1.42, plugging in the converter would immediately bypass the phone speaker, regardless of whether or not the headphones were plugged in. In JF1.51, the audio only bypasses the phone speaker when I plug the headphones into the converter.
May 25th, 2009 at 1:08 pm
Will the 1.5 themes still work for this build?
May 25th, 2009 at 1:22 pm
I was walking to the movies last night when JF Updater kicked in. I have 3G here in San Francisco. So while I was walking I was updating.
Downloads took a little while since 3G is probably 150K to 200K.
My system did freeze up on rebooting. So I did the Alt W, then Alt S and everything installed fine.
Have not checked everything out except to notice right away that MyFaves is back (which I don’t use since I have an unlimited plan).
Also, when pulling up the shade I notice that the background is a better looking darker shade of gray. May be my imagination.
Without knowing anything about the 38MB 1.51 indicated update I could tell that this was JF’s version of the U. S. release that went public a few days ago.
All good, especially the way my JFUpdater acted like T-Mo’s OTA notice and I updated while walking.
May 25th, 2009 at 1:27 pm
Same here, my HTC 3 in one adapter will NOT work with the Cupcake update, where is did work with the old OS.
To be clear, what is not working is the 3.5 mm port of the adapter.

The frustrating thing is that my ExtUSB to 3.5mm CONVERTER works fine. When I plug my headphones into the converter, the audio switches from the phone speaker to the headphones. It’s the ExtUSB to 3.5mm male audio cable that doesn’t work.
I did notice that in JF1.42, plugging in the converter would immediately bypass the phone speaker, regardless of whether or not the headphones were plugged in. In JF1.51, the audio only bypasses the phone speaker when I plug the headphones into the converter.

I am no authority at all on this, but I think his build numbers are for the fix to multi-touch. So if you are in the U. S. you would use the JFV1.51 CRB43 US (1750) That will be a 38.6 MB file and will say it’s version 1.51
But you may want to wait for others to chime in.

Justin… under my RC33 (non-cupcake) the HTC adapter worked when I stuck headphones into the 3.5 mm port. I inserted an old 2.5 mm headset into the adapter’s 2.5 mm port, that worked too.
When I installed JFv1.5 neither 2.5 nor 3.5 mm ports worked.
With the new JFv1.51 the ports remain non-functional.
Also, when I plug in the HTC adapter the microUSB plug does NOT cut out the G1 speaker.
In contrast, I have some of those microUSB to 3.5 mm adapters. That does cut out the speaker and the phones plugged in do work.
To add to the mix, if I plug the OEM microUSB headset that comes with the G1 and plug that into the HTC adapter’s microUSB headphone port (that’s on the side of the HTC adapter), that works.
So there’s something inside the HTC adapter, the circuitry that controls the 3.5/2.5 mm ports, that is not compatible with the Cupcake OS.

Hi
i have put the firmware on to my SD card and booted the phone to alow it to update. All i get is “No Authentication Signatures”. I have never rooted MY G1 as i have just got it. i renamed the file to update.zip
If this is wrong can some one point me to a guide ?
May 26th, 2009 at 6:00 am
It would really be great if this rom had the option to skip google activation during the installation just like the other roms.
May 26th, 2009 at 6:21 am
I also have a problem with the superuser app freezing. It just hangs with a black screen with the title “SU request”, until it eventually says “Sorry!, SU Request is not responding”. I have tried clearing the SU apps’s data, and I have tried a wipe, neither have helped
. Other than su not working the phone seem fine.
Any suggestions?
BTW Thanks JF for these great releases

Thank you for the 1.5 update, it has a much cleaner and smoother “look”. The edges of buttons and lines are now smoothed instead of being sharp lines.
It was kind of hard to wait once the Developer version came out, but, I wanted to keep access to my paid apps. It looks like it was worth it! Thanks.

I am having some big issues here with my G1 and would appreciate any help i can get.
I have a UK, unlocked, non rooted cupcaked fone but i wanted to upgrade to JF1.51 so i can tether it and get the cool new features. I downgraded to RC7 but the old startup screen requires me to sign in with my user and password. I have set my APN to my local network’s but I dont have 3G signal showing in the notification bar and i am stuck at this point.
does anyone know a walkaround for this or how to get past this screen. I would really appreciate your suggestion

I suspect and hope it’s yes to both of those but would like it confirming.

My accelerometer no longer seems to be working. I tried resetting to factory defaults and that did not solve the problem. Next I restored a nandroid backup from before the 1.51 update and it started working again, but I really want the 1.51 update
So I reapplied it and again my accelerometer (auto-rotate/screen orientation, etc. I’ve seen it referred to in many ways above) stopped working. Is there a definitive fix for this?

Anyone had this problem?

Guys, the main difference between 1.5ADP and 1.51ADP (my guess) is that there was a security fix. Please correct me if I am wrong. You can read about the security problem I am talking about here:
http://www.ocert.org/advisories/ocert-2009-006.html
“Android, an open source mobile phone platform, improperly checks developer certificates when installing packages that request the shared user identifier (uid) permission.
Normally, Android applications will be allowed to share a uid if the packages are all signed by the same developer certificate and request permission to do so at install-time. This allows for packages from the same author to share data. Without enforcement of that behavior, it is possible for any application to be installed in such a manner that it gains access to another (existing) application’s data.
A patch has been made available by Android.”

I’m sure you’ve been bombed with this question or something similar but for those who theme the framework.cramfs is making it very difficult to develope themes. Because of this I have not made the transistion to the CRB43 build. Sure I can use a home substitute but I desire the other modifications as well. Understanding that you’re primary focus and objectives are optimizing the builds themselves while providing the best amount of free space remaining, I don’t blame you and applaud your work. However, using the framework.cramfs method is quite inconvenient. Could there be another method by perhaps compressing another set of files that wouldn’t effect the files that are required to be modified in order to theme the builds?
jf Reply:
May 27th, 2009 at 4:52 pm
The US build is big enough that when all my stuff is added, it won’t fit in /system. So I had to figure out how to either remove enough stuff, or compress something to make it fit. I choose the framework folder specifically to reduce the performance cost of the compression. The thinking is that all of the framework stuff should typically be kept in memory, unlike the apps, which are loaded and unloaded from memory. So the framework jars should have to be decompressed just once, on boot.
Is there some reason you can’t build a new framework.cramfs file with your modified framework files?
Also, feel free to download the Build Environment and build a full themed update however you want it
Binary100100 Reply:
May 27th, 2009 at 5:08 pm
Wow… personal attention from the man himself. I’m honored.
I downloaded the build environment however I don’t have linux and I don’t actually understand it. I attemted to use Cygwin to unpack the cramfs file, modify the framework.apk file and put it back together with the modified apk file. I resigned the zip file but I still had the grey status bar or it will stick on the splash2 screen. (Yes… I let it sit there for over 45 minutes before I performed the “three finger solute” to restart it and fastboot back to my backups.) Can’t figure out how that’s happening. I’ve sent pm’s to other theme devs and have received no response.
What if (saying IF) we used the alternate spl that saves space (provided by Haykuro) to allow the full framework folder instead of the framework.cramfs file.
jf Reply:
May 27th, 2009 at 5:17 pm
All the apps have to be signed with the same keys as the framework. I suspect that’s your issue.
Why not just download and install vmware and make an ubuntu VM?

Hi Folks,
1. Thanks again to JF for the awesome builds.
2. Since updating to JF US 1.51, I’ve noticed that my phone is significantly slower than it used to be.
NOTE: I am not saying causation, I’m just trying to get some advice on performance which could have been caused by Cupcake in general or the HTC radio update, etc.
For example, it takes about 10 secs for the Maps to come up. When I want to go back to the home (for example I accidentally launched maps), and I hit the home key, it takes 10 secs for it to go back to home before it forces the app to close. Generally speaking, it seems like the launching of applications takes longer than it did when I was running RC33 and JF 1.4 (?).
Anyone else experiencing this? Any ideas on how to improve it?
Thanks
oddwin Reply:

Hi Randy,
I have the same problem. I was using a non-roothed phone, then last night I decided to take the plunge, and downgraded my phone to RC29, then rooted it, then upgraded to RC33. Then from there I went straight to the JF 1.51 US, everything went fine, I liked the update, and was installing apps, then after a couple hours, I just suddenly lost the 3g icon, it wouldnt even switch to the edge icon, and it seems that I have lost data connection. I’ve removed the battery to reboot my phone, but that doesnt work. Anyone out there, please help me also. Thanks.

Randy, it sounds like your APN settings are incorrect. I run my G1 on AT&T and have data just fine, except that it’s EDGE not 3g (because the frequencies differ).

Thanks! Ya, that’s what I was missing. I figured it out after I made that post and thought I had come back and posted that info but I guess I forgot.
It’s weird that the ADP1 worked out of the box on AT&T but the JF Firmware didn’t have settings in there for it. I guess because when you go back to RC29 it’s an official T-Mobile build which obviously wouldn’t have AT&T settings.
Thanks again!

Hello!
I’ve bought a new HTC Magic (build version crb43) from VODAFONE Spain this week. I see that most of you have the G1. I have several questions and i would than a lot if somebody can ask any of them:
1. In the upgrading process you need to push some key combinations and this is a problem for me as my Magic doesn’t have a keyboard but the soft one, and it is no active til the phone boots. Is there any workaround for this?
2. What are the benefits of upgrading my device’s system version to JFv1.51, as it is based on my phone build version?
3. I bought this phone willing to get the mythtv frontend running on it as i read that an italian guy got ubuntu under android in a G1 i gess this is possible via ubuntu(or debian)-apt. Anyway, does anybody knows if there is any project porting natively mythtv-frontend to android?
4(and last). I suggested in the phone shop that it could be possible to make the phone the internet gateway in my home, they advertised me that if they caught me doing that thing they would charge 40€/month (the fee of the mobile internet modem they offer apart). If i tether the phone could they actually know about it?
Thanks a lot

When I make or receive a phonecall you usually can change the volume of the person you hear.
But with this version it doesn’t change it. I see the incall volume change but the volume itself stays on the same level !
More people having this ??

I have the same problem
don’t know how to fix it, but I love JF1.51. Toggle settings always forecloses in startup, other than that, it’s all good. I’m hoping for an update

OK I answer my questions:

2) Yes. Do a wipe before.
3) Goolgle: How to do a wipe…
Many, may thanks JesusFreke. Now I have a ADP1 in my own language!

I seem to be having problems w/ chmod — su, root seems to be fine, but I can’t make apps executable, and I get “operation not permitted” — for example to run debian,
su
chmod 4755 *
gives me operation not permitted, chmod 755 * does nothing at all.

solved my problem by going around it. remount the /sdcard to make it executable -then remount the /system to make it writeable and copy all of the /sdcard/debian files to /system/bin. (for some reason, even with /system writable, installer.sh doesn’t copy the executables).

Great work on this, thanks for all your efforts.
I do seem to have an issue with my magic since applying 1.51 though. The autorotate no longer works. I’ve seen a few people posting similar issues but as yet no suggestions as to fixes. I’ve tried numerous different images with no success, options for autorotate are definitely set, yet it will not work anywhere – home screen, email, sms, browser. The only thing I’ve not been able o do is restore to the original image as I didn’t bother with the nandroid backup and can’t seem to find an original image for UK HTC voda. I’ve also tried some safe mode factory reset procedures with no joy.
Anyone got any thought? Is this a hardware fault or is it something to do with the image. I think although I can’t be sure that it worked very briefly after first installing the image and might have broken after installing ahome?
If not – any idea where I can find a clean CRB43 to try?
Grateful for any suggestions. Thanks.

Great work, but as mentioned elsewhere, the music player bug is really annoying and I’m surprised it’s not mentioned more often.
Try it yourself. Listen to music over wired headphones and get someone to send you a text. Suddenly, no audio! Rebooting is the only way out (that I’ve found).
Looking for another clean build (w/root as I often use aNetShare).

Have finally managed to get autorotate working again and I can confirm that the 1.51 image does not work with my HTC Magic.
The problem was with the accelerometer as none of the apps using this were working.
Fixed this by reusing the rootme-signed image which takes the phone back to CRB17 and all worked fine. Installed JFv1.51 again and no accelerometer functionality.
Back to CR17 again now and all working.
Shame though as I really wanted the multi-touch.

no wipe upgrade from JF 1.5ADP to JF 1.51US worked fine for me.
brought back AmazonMP3 app, so thx for that.
Only quirk i’ve seen is the App-Tray is no longer transparent… was like this with 1.5ADP as well.. any suggestions?

Hi,
How do I install this ?
TIA
June 15th, 2009 at 2:09 pm
So I’ve installed debian on top of your 1.51 image, and I’m trying to set up vpnc. However it appears that the tun kernel module is not available. Any idea where I can get the linux-headers for your compile of 2.6.27 to compile the tun kernel module? Do you know if there is something more I need to do?
Ari Reply:
June 15th, 2009 at 2:11 pm
Well I solved my own problem. The kernel module appears to be there, I just needed to manually create the /dev/net/tun with mknod while in android, not under debian.

Hi JF,
Can you integrate the new Maps in your images? When I install it manually, synch stops working, but fortunately after deleting the new Maps, the old Maps is still there. So there is NO hurry.
Thanks,

@ Shimon Shnitzer
Please read the rest of the blog as well. You need a rooted Android for this, otherwise your Android will brick.
First backup your programs and stuff if needed. Then download the appropriate version from the list on top, rename the file to update.zip and put it on your SD-card. Restart your android holding the home and back key. Remember you might loose all contents of your phone, like it just came out of the factory.
If you are not aware of what you are doing the JF stuff may not be something for you.
Again: doing this on the wrong phone will brick and oy yes, before i forget, you might loose everything on your phone when installing or when installing fails and a wipe is necessary.

I don’t know if it is just me but after this update my gps didn’t work. I wiped and re-installed, then it worked again. I had to wipe my phone again(to much tinkering and I bricked it and brought it back to life) now I can’t get gps to work at all. anyone else having gps problems?

Quick question here. I’m a complete noob at the whole rooting system for the G1. I’ve yet to do it. I’m confused as hell on exactly how to root my phone. I’ve come across a few tutorials. But most are many months old now. With rooting ‘now’, do you still have to go way back to the RC29 release? Or can you do the same thing with a current release? And is there a newer or updated guide on how to root the g1?
July 31st, 2009 at 2:35 am
I rooted my phone using the testkeys image but when I rebooted I did not see the “user test keys” message. I went ahead and loaded the latest US JF1.51 release. When I go in with a term and run su it does let me switch to root and run reboot, etc, but I’m missing that satisfaction of trying to make the “perfect” transition into root with all of the right messages and steps.
Am I ok or do I need to run through all the steps again? What allows me to know for certain if I “have root?”
