I am trying to root a Droid 1 using z4, but all it does is go into "acquiring root shell" then back into the app screen without rooting. Like a force close without the force close message. I also cannot download any apk files from any website.
I have tried 2 factory resets, but no luck. I am running Android 2.2.1
What am I doing wrong? Any help is much appreciated, thanks for your time

Hey All,
First I would like to start of by saying sorry if there is a thread on this and I have not found it from hours of searching for an answer.
So let me tell you the problem/point I am at with my Nexus One and need help.
So I rooted my phone a while back and for some time I was running the
CyanogenMod and then used Rom Manager to return to the stock image FRF91 from there updated to FRFG83D. I now want to get back into the rooted world and Amon_Ra's Recovery. Each time I try to enter into recovery mod I get the droid with a big '!'
I have tried to use SuperOneClick and it keep sitting on
Running rageagainstthecage...
ROOTED
Getting mount path...
tried 1-click does not work also.
Please help
Anyone help please

You only need to ask once. Asking multiple times is not going to get anyone to help you any faster... All you'll do is annoy people.
The "droid with the big !" as you put it is the stock recovery. When you flash a stock ROM, it re-installs the stock recovery, unless you delete two files.
Anyway, you need to delete /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and /system/recovery-from-boot.p and then flash a custom recovery. You obviously need root to delete those two files.
See attachments for how to root and flash a custom recovery, without unlocking your bootloader.
Thanx and do not wish to be a pain, I thought I got my nexus to a point were I could not do a think.
Will try it out and let you know.
Thanks

I did this like 2 days ago too. Super one click root does work. I confirmed. You just only need to set up your driver and your adb right.

Try using superoneclick, should be around here somewhere...get permissions back and load up clockwork and backup...wipe cache and install cyanogen or whatever your flavor.

Hello Forum first of all thank you for your support. I have an issue with (enable non market) from super one click. my device is a stock 2.2 rooted captivate, thanks again, to S.O.C. but I was unable to unlock market. I get a fail and no S.U. permission pop up on my device. Am I missing a file on my PC or my phone?
Did you root it? if you did root it, did you restart? is there an error message? if so what does it say?
When an app like Super One Click is looking for SU access, you have to watch the screen on the phone. You are supposed to get a dialog box saying that Superuser is requesting access. When you choose Yes, you should be in business.

He did say his phone is rooted.
Are you using the latest version? And is it an At&t captivate?
Good Luck
PM me & let me know how it goes

Settings> applications>manage applications> all> superuser> clear data
And
Settings>applications>development>usb debugging should be ON.
After those steps try again, make sure your screen is on and you should get a SU prompt this time.
Thanks Studscris ill give it a try

super one click
Whenever ive used superoneclick ive had to run my computer in administrator to get it to work..I would always enter superoneclick in admin aNd then click root and wait until its finished and then immediately click allow non market apps while phone is still connected ...I tried many times before finding the admin way. that finally worked. and this was on windows vista.hope this might help
I did what studacris said still no S.U. permission and get a fail. I'm using a Win.XP how do I put it on admin mode

I rooted using Pete's 1 Click Root Pkg. Now I am regretting it. I tried to unroot using Pete's, but it just gave me an error msg saying that my device is not a Droid 3. If I can't get this app issue to go away (they keep uninstalling themselves when I reboot), I'd like to take it back to VZ. However, I can't take it back rooted. Have I totally just ruined my phone?
Did you follow the instructions posted here?

I have installed drivers, installed programs and read all the topics. However, I can not seem to get the bionic to root correctly/ at all. It says waiting for device on both programs. Little side note, I do not switch between programs without shutting down the computer and the phone and rebooting both before trying again. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advanced
Seeing as how no one will take time from their busy days to help me with this, which by the way was not answered in other posts, mods can delete this please
