Just to start with the obvious, have you done everything in the following instructions?
Shabby's AIO Root
Install the Motorola drivers.
Turn on debugging mode: Menu/Settings/Applications/Development/USB Debugging.
Connect phone to computer in "Charge Only" mode.
Double click the root.bat file and follow the on-screen prompts from the window that will pop up.

Have you tried a different USB port or cable? It's been so long since I rooted I only vaguely remember the process.

I've rooted 4 photons and had similar issues where it says its rooted (after running the program), but in actuality isnt rooted (no superuser app, etc).
My solution was running the program again. Also if you are running in a windows 7 environment I would recommend "right clicking" the batch file and running it as "administrator"
also make sure your computer firewall isnt blocking any functions.
The one click method never worked for me until i SBF'd to 198_7 but i would recommend using the torpedo method and following the instructions here: http://codehenge.net/blog/2011/08/rooting-a-motorola-photon-without-a-dock/
Goodluck!

If that does not work try the instructions @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1243792
Id suggest downloading dropbox and photon-torpedo.tar and then exporting the file to sd\download to skip installing the dolphin browser. I know this method works bc I just re rooted my device
I had the same problem, make sure usb debugging is on and change from charge mode to portal mode, i believe that's what its called. Don't know why this does it but it does

I've noticed in my experience that ADB doesn't seem to like USB 3.0 connections. After switching to a USB 2.0 port, ADB should be able to detect the phone, and the one-click root program should work just fine. If it doesn't, try booting the rooting program as administrator.
Right click "Run As Administrator"....Gotta love windows
I used a different USB cable n it worked thanks for all the advice

Is there a section for exhibit 2 4g. When i plug my usb to labtop i get a mtp driver error makes it impossible to root. Please help. My vibrant connects fine.
Sent from my SGH-T679 using XDA App
do you have the required drivers installed?...i don't have that phone..but just a suggestion..
more info please
Im guessing i do not have the right drivers. I tried samsung website could not find them. This Sgh-t679 did not come with the drivers in the box. I have windows 7 labtop. Keep in mind on my vibrant my labtop automaticly installed them. It errors out every time with mtp error. I hate not being able to root.

I got no luck with the drivers part but here is a thread where you can download a zip to root it. Hate to send someone outside of XDA but Root is Root.
http://androidforums.com/exhibit-4g...8-anyone-root-samsung-exhibit-ii-4g-t679.html
Just reading through that thread though it seems that the Superuser.apk might be out of date. If so you can get the Update Fixer from the market. This actually worked for me when I updated Chainsdd SU.
Or you can go here too AndroidSU.com
Edit: On post 19 is says this, "but you can just download the drivers for the Exhibit (T659) and it will work with the Exhibit II as well"

Try looking here

They might be able to help sense there is no thread here for that phone.
Thank you for your help but a zip is pointless if my labtop does not
Recognize my device. I need to get the driver first. And that has been my problem. I will keep looking :-(

You can download the zip over 3g/wifi and root it that way without ever plugging into your computer. At least then you will be rooted and problem#1 willbe solved.

How would i flash a zip with out cwm or being rooted? Googling drivers is the easiest way to get virus and spyware. I tried your links though i refuse to install a program that does a driver scan then tells me i have 22 errors and i have to pay to fix them. None the less thanks for helping.
Sent from my SGH-T679 using XDA App
You can flash an Update.zip through stock Recovery. If face I think it is call "Install Update.zip".
What you install or not is up to you. You asked and me and Big Dog both answered with links. If you don't want to use them that is fine. On your own. Good luck and let me know if you need anything else causeI am alwys willing to help.
How do i get to stock recovery? On my vibrant i had to flash bootloaders from odin. Which requires usb to labtop lol.

Are you on stock rooted? Is USB debugging checked?
When you started the process you should have had it set to charge only, make sure you have taken all the updates in SDK manager..

You need to be on a stock rooted Rom before you start control bear:/ run this ruu http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/ name to PH98IMG put on sd boot to bootloader let it update.

Then unlock your bootloader again, flash recovery, and then flash this in recovery to gain root on stock. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B0ZJtM40GdJ0MEpGeG1ZWi0yNDA/edit click, file>download.. then boot go to the supersu app the zip installed in recovery and except the updates, verify you have root (root checker or something)... Check USB debugging.. then start the control bear process.. use .5 ICS version of control bear with this particular ruu

you need fiddy's universal root from the sprint section. It'll work fine.
I already tried it. It keeps saying abd isnt a command or something like that. And when it did say it rooted it didnt install superuser. Amd it wasnt rooted either

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

I have used it twice, and it took many tries before it worked. I just kept restarting current root bat. over and over until it worked.

i know i do, Like i said, Im kinda new at this so im not really sure how everything works.
1. Make sure usb debugging is turned on
2. Install lg usb drivers
3. Plug in phone via usb to pc in charge only mode.
4. Run bat file.
5. Switch to mtp mode..... Wait a minute for phone and pc get done what they are gunna do.... Ignore pc prompts and on phone prompts...
6 follow prompts on PC and there u go rooted jb
Via LG OG running Rootbox 4.2.2
I know there is an answer in this section somewhere, but I did not entirely understand the one I found. Also, I believe I am having trouble installing the drivers/not sure where to check if they are installed.
Also, I have windows 8 if that changes anything
thanks for any help!
You don't give any details on what you were doing or anything, but I think this is what you want to start with before trying anything else.

Sorry about that, I ran CASUAL, but i guess i had a problem with that, I thought I was unlocked and rooted after completing it, but it turns out I was only rooted and I tried to flash a ROM without and unlocked bootloader.
Your bootloader is locked.
You must Odin back to start and redo the whole process.
I root then unlock then flash twrp then ROMs
I never had a problem.
Or you could start at the very first post here. That days questions about soft bricks

I tried to update to the stock JB rom using LGNPST. I followed the instructions to a T. However, I kept getting "ERROR: Fail changing to Diag Mode". It never progressed past 0%. Any help would be appreciated.

Never mind. It looked like it was caused by the USB 3.0 port. My laptop has 2 USB3.0 ports and one USB2.0 port. I tried both of the USB3.0 ports and it failed. I didn't try the USB2.0 one since it was occupied by my mouse. But after trying the USB2.0 port, everything went smoothly and now I have the 4.1.2.
I have lgnpst 1.1.3 ...it wont recognize my phone at all. I used freegee to unlock my bootloader so I'm rooted also. My HUGE problem is I can't flash any 4.2 ROMS because I'm not recognized on lgnpst and I cant finish installing the at&t update because my bootloader is unlocked...I'm not sure what to do at this point. I'm stuck with the older ROMS!! =/

I have the same issue so I wonder what is to be done. I have 2.2.3 lgnpst and it shows unknown item on com 3. I select the dll and tinybin. When I click start it does nothing phone stays in stand by in lgnpst. And stuck at 0% and no further. I have installed drivers for usb twice. And wiped lgnpst 1.3 and fresh install 2.2.3 with v5.0 of the other two files. Still same.
And your in download mode on phone? And unknown on com3 worked on mine. Just made sure dll was lge970, and bin was selected.

Make sure the phone is connected to a USB2.0 port, not USB3.0.
Edit: I tried again on my laptop now and it says it cannot load module in cmd. Missing something? ( I have tried to see if I needed to register the dll but it won't even work. Any insight )
files installed:
lgnpst 2.2.3
models 5.0
other one 5.0
usb drivers
I don't have any usb 3.0 on my developer/lab laptop
