[svlug] Root Android phone Tonight 6PM at SVLUG. Help Thanks

[giovanni_re]

Have you rooted an Android device? Or r u interested in rooting?
Come to tonight's meeting and let's work together on rooting.
I'll try to arrive about 1 hr b4 the meeting, 6p, so come by any time.

I'm working toward rooting 
1) a Samsung Intercept on Virgin Mobil,
2)later (not tonight) a Tablet - Lenovo K1.

The excellent SDX Rooting wiki page, which I Did some work on,
Hasn't been moved to their new wiki yet.  :(
http://wiki.sdx-developers.com/Rooting_android_2.2

But, the easy root instructions from there involve 1click rooting
With interceptRoot.apk off code.google.com , iirc.

After rooting, I'll work to put on a shell, wifi tethering,Debian
system.
What else would be good on the phone?


C u there.  :)
