Step 1: Download the Superboot compressed zip file and save it to a familiar location on your computer.
Step 2: Make sure that you device is booted up into bootloader mode. You can achieve this by powering the handset down, then turning the device on with the ‘volume down‘ button depressed. This will force the phone to boot up into its internal bootloader mode.
Step 3: Extract the contents of the ‘r1-endeavor-superboot.zip‘ file that we downloaded in step 1 and save the folder to a known location.
If you are a using a Windows based machine to perform this process then see step 4. If you are a Mac OS X user then skip to step 5. Linux users, see step 6.
Step 4: Locate the folder containing the extracted files. Double click on the ‘install-superboot-windows.bat‘ file [WINDOWS ONLY].
Step 5: Open an instance of the Terminal application on your Mac, making sure that it is pointing to the directory that contains the extracted files. Type in the following command:
chmod +x install-superboot-mac.sh ./install-superboot-mac.sh  
Step 6: Open an instance of the Terminal application on your Linux powered computer, making sure that is it pointing to the directory containing the extracted files. Type in the following command:
chmod +x install-superboot-linux.sh ./install-superboot-linux.sh
