Just updated to froyo via kies. I lost my root and was wondering if the one-click root process will still work. I haven't seen anything about it yet.

one click root 2.2
the original one click root does not work for the 2.2 update via kies. Neither does the Z4root. Tried them both. OCR gave a E:/ not found or whatever error when trying to reinstall packages. z4root pretty much hung then every app i had FC. Odind back to JFD then back to what I had.

That should have what you need. May not be oneclick but if you have a PC, you will get root.
The new kernel most likely is patched. The new way in is called RAGEINTHECAGE
The new recovery is a PITA. Freaks out with the checking of sigs.

Correct, Z4Root + original OneClick method's do not work.
SuperOneClick however does work. Follow the directions closely. I have attached the program below.
Note, OCLF2.0 does not work for this OTA 2.2 ROM. You must use Voodoo or another lag fix that work with another method and not ext2.
i cannot get the one click root to work.. it gets all the way to the "getting mount path" after its been rooted. but then when i use the busybox app it says that it as not been rooted. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...OH and I had forgot that even after 15min of sitting i unplug the phone and the resistive keys are really slow to respond unless i reboot the device...........

Hmm, I've rooted before with Super One Click but for some reason the app hangs up when I click root. I just need USB debugging enabled right? I feel like i'm missing something, and not sure how I got it to work right before.
EDIT: Nevermind, got it to work.
Works Awesome! Thank You!!!

Any clue?
i rooted with superoneclick 1.5.5 with success but ever since i rebooted, my phone is bootlooping at the intial lockscreen. this phone syncs with my corporate email so the pin pad is supposed to pop up but the screen remains blank except for the notication bar and the capacitive buttons lighting up. Anyone else have this issue?
I rooted w/ super one click but CANNOT get into clockwork recovery to flash a custom rom again...
Any ideas why or how

I just tried SuperOneClick and all of the sudden my touch keys at the bottom were lagging/unresponsive. Factory refresh and everything is all good.
I also got the "signature failed" message from using the OneClick update.zip.

Was having problems with superoneclick because /system/ had 0b free so I went in and deleted a bunch of apps that I'm not going to use (gogo, layar etc) and redid superoneclick and restarted and now all my root apps are working correctly and prompting for SU.

Did you get your issue resolved? I use my vibrant to receive corporate emails too so I want to make sure the root doesn't mess it up.

It's this app: https://market.android.com/details?id=net.andirc.erisrooter&feature=search_result
More info about it here, including some instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742228
though, basically the instructions are to install the app, run it, shut down and restart the phone - the step that adds custom Recovery to the phone - then restart to Recovery to either flash a custom ROM or to flash a rootme.zip file to add the super user app to the phone. Restart the phone and uninstall the app (if you flashed rootme.zip), and then you make a donation to the charity of your choice.
That method is only for 2.1, what about 1.5 users?

Why do you still have 1.5 on the phone? Have you constantly refused every OTA upgrade prompt?
Anyway, this procedure is not 1-touch, but it works: http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/127861-universal-eris-root-dummies.html

The phone was flashed to Cricket when it was new and we were concerned that the update would break phone so it has been refused. I just wiped phone and upgraded to 2.1, I am about to root and attempt to put back on Cricket. Thanks for the quick response.
Z4Root works also.

I have a Mac, and used Reflash UnrEVOked v3 and it was super easy.
All I did was plug in my phone and it did the rest, after that you just have to flash which rom you want.
If you don't have a mac, find someone with one or perhaps theres a windows version of Reflash.
(sorry if you meant market app, 1 click eris root is a good market root app... I think..?)
I used 1-Click, easy and fast with NO problems.
I tried to google search this but found nothing. My phone is ROM'ed atm but their hasent been a update for it in a few months. So i want to put a more updated ROM and also because every 12 hours my phone ask me to upgrade to gingerbread. Now the question is in order to add a new ROM can i just install it over the old ROM or do i need to uninstall it. If i need to uninstall it how do i do so? just wipe the phone? Also sorry if this is in the wrong spot cant ask this question in the developer part.
Sbf to 2.3.3 if you want to get anothr rom. Dont ota for an update
Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk
So your saying just install gingerbread, root the phone again and then rom it? So its safe to just install gingerbread without wiping the phone? I have no idea what sbf or ota means so im kinda lost.

Look up the sbf article in the sticky, follow it, root, install bootstrap, flash now rom. Its that simple.

Oh sweet thanks ill try this out when i get out of class tonight.
ok so i installed rsd lite and got my phone to stock gingerbread. I rooted with 'MotorolaOneClickRoot_psouza4 and that was ok. I installed bootstrap and when i click install recovery it says Install Failure /data/data/com.tenfar,a4.recovery/files/surunner.sh (Permission denied). What does this mean? I know im rooted since titanium backup is working and superuser is asking permission for stuff.

I do not think that you are rooted then. Do you have adb installed? If not, I would just rerun the exploit again.

great i redid oneclick root and now i dont have root on my phone. Im going back to froyo and downloading gingerbread and then trying to root that somehow. This is very annoying.
Why go back to froyo? Just SBF gingerbread 2.3.3 and one-click root it.

You don't use RSD, its not a SBF, you download it to your phone, rename it to "update.zip", go into recovery and select "Apply SDCARD:update.zip" or "Apply SDINTERNAL:update.zip" depending on where you saved it. Then you select reboot, and your done!

The root method works, sounds like you need to educate yourself on how to use ADB correctly.

it is rare that I ever ask for help around these parts. But I just recently got my droid x2 back and wanted to try cm10 alpha 3. The problem is it doesn't seem to want to root. I have SBF'd numerous times and tried both Motorola one click root tool and Pete's Motorola root tool (which actually has worked every time when I used the DX2 as my daily driver with no problems). No matter how many times I run the programs, it seems to stay stock, unrooted gingerbread. Now remember, I have been around these forums for a long time and know what I'm doing. The only difference is that the phone has no number attached to it. Meaning its a WiFi only device. I have tried to bypass the activation which was successful. But I have not been able to root it and install the bootstrap recovery. It just goes through the process and stays the same. I have USB debugging on and checked the unknown sources box. It's been a while since I've done this so I may be missing something. All these tools are the same ones that I've always used with no problems. The only difference is that its a WiFi only device now. So is there any reason why the normal process wouldn't work now?

Yep, I never had this phone on 2.3.5. And these same tools always worked in the past. But I will try this other method.
you check windows device manager, for missing drivers?
Sent from my XT862 using xda premium
Just to double check, after an SBF, you get the activation screen. To bypass that, you have to turn off the phone, hold volume down and power then select "boot android (no bp)"? Thats what I'm doing and I'm just wondering if thats what is causing the phone to not be able to root. Thats the only difference there is from when I had this phone as a daily driver.
