How to Perm-Root the myTouch 4G

1. Make sure fastboot is turned off and USB Debugging is on.

2. Download Terminal and Astro off the market. Download Visionary 11 here: http://android.modaco.com/content/t-mobile-g2-g2-modaco-com/320350/10-nov-r12...

3. Temp root using Visionary, make sure "set system r/w after root' is checked before you root.

4. Go download the necessary files from XDA onto your pc that I showed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=834225

5. Place the files on your phones SD Card in the root directory

6. Open up terminal, type in "su" then press enter. Then without exiting type in "insmod /sdcard/wpx.ko" and press enter. If you got the proper message type in "dd if=/sdcard/hboot_dhd.nb0 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18". Do not exit terminal in this step at all.

7. If it works press the back button to exit terminal.

8. Run visionary again, should say you're already rooted.

9. Wait 5-15 seconds then pull the battery out.

10. Reboot then run Visionary again.

11. Pull the battery, wait about 2 minutes. Boot into recovery by holding both the power on and volumn down buttons until it comes off.

If it says S-OFF, you're rooted! Good job! :)
