I am thinking about putting MIUI on my friends Droid 1 on verizon, and I would need to do it tomorrow. I have a gs2 and had a captivate so i'm used to the way it all works on the samsung devices but not on the Motorola ones.
So i guess i had a few quick questions,
Does Miui work well on the droid, it appears to with the forums?
to install it it appears i just use rom manager with root is this correct?
Do i need to get root and install clockwork? or does this not need clockwork?
and are there any unbrick methods like odin for samsung?
I know i really should be searching and I'm starting my search when i finish this post but if anyone is feeling generous and knows the links to the forums or answers to any of the questions above or just advice i'd appreciate it.

I have to ask, because it really is in front of your eyes... what the heck did you search for?
When I searched for Captivate JI6 2.2 root I got this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=797397
Which is exactly what I knew I would get. Try searching a little harder and using the correct terms. I promise you that you'll find your answer. Good luck with your rooting!

I did but I didn't understand it and I have the leaked 2.2 for captivate and some tell me how to root in a easier easy so I can understand
That is your easiest method on the leak 2. 2. Start reading, this will be a good learning experience. I would suggest searching odin and flashing back to stock Rom. then flash a 2. 2 Rom that is already rooted like cognition.
Either way do not do anymore unless you have read enough to understand where you will end up
Captivate
Cog 2.2

I also have to ask... Did you read the thread? The top of the FIRST post has a link to a ONE-CLICK-ROOT. (this is a link, you click on this with your mouse.)
It does not get any easier then that.
I have Rooted 2.2 I used super one click I believe its called. Try googleing that.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
A friend of mine asked me to root his phone for him. I personally have a rooted and ROM'ed Samsung Epic so this is not exactly new to me. My first question is what is the best way to root and ROM this phone? After searching around my head is spinning a bit about this. For my Epic I was able to do a one click root that also installed CWM. After that I was able to use Clockwork to flash new ROM's and kernels.Second the reason he gave me for wanting to root was to be able to have WiFi tethering. Am I going to need to install a custom ROM for his phone or is there an app that will give him this feature once we have his phone rooted? Thanks in advance for all of the help!
Quickest, basic answer...
For Root... [APP]SuperOneClick v2.3.2
For the tethering question, he will have to check out a Rom that offers it as one of the options (most do). Don't ask what Rom is recommended, he will have to make the choice depending on his preferences to the specifics offered in a Rom. There are plenty of choices here... Captivate Android Development
Your right about the ROM so I removed the question. I guess I was looking for some recommended ROM's that were stable and everything worked. Thanks!

Well you have to consider that he might not be looking to flash a ROM at all. But yes, read the stickies. They're all over the place

I did use this guide and worked for me.
How To Flash Captivate ROMs from STOCK
If something goes wrong I did use the following guide
[Stock ROMs](OneClicks Master Collection)+[Kernels (Stock & w/ CWM)]+[Modems] UPDATED
I have installed one that has a Kernel with CWM and then could install any other rom.
hope it helps

This is not the thread you are looking for. // Obi-Wan Kenobi
These threads are for the original Droid 1 and Milestone 1.
ps.: ALWAYS make a nandroid backup before messing around with your phone.
If you have Droid X, you should ask around HERE.
A guy sold me an ATT Moto X and he neglected to tell me it was rooted. So now I'm stuck with root that I don't really want on this phone. I tried using RSD Lite and the All in One Tool that was posted on here but nothing would work with my computer. So, now im just looking for a stock rom I could flash but I can't seem to find any on here for ATT. Any recomendations to fix this? Lastly, would flashing the 4.4 leak that was posted in the General section work? any help is appreciated.

As long as you are on 4.2.2 you should be able to rsd lite back to the most latest 4.2.2 firmware.
Either way, you can flash the 4.4 leak with fast boot

you probably are doing something wrong with flashing the stock FW. check the threads that talk about it and you should be fine. If you are running mac then there is a thread for that. if not then there is a thread for that as well. post in those threads with questions and you will get answers. i wouldn't take th 4.4 leak because you don't seem like you want to toy with your phone. It's possible that those people that took that leak might have to do a little or perhaps a lot of things to eventually take the real OTA. This has happened with other phones. You don't seem like you want to do that much tweaking so just go to those threads and ask questions there and explain what exactly you are doing and the errors you are getting.

yeah i think ill give that a go again I guess. I used to be into rooting back when I had an S4 but it eventually just became to much of an issue everytime i wanted to install a new rom so I like to stick with stock. Thanks both of you I'll try again once Im home in a few minutes
