i rooted my friends droid last week and all was good
now he says he took an update now all his roots apps dont work and when i try to run universal androot it says its rooted and will not reroot or unroot
im a eris guy and very new to droid can some one give me some insight
The ota dor frg22d breaks the one click type root methods, currently there is no app to utilize for the one click root method. Furthermore you will be unable to "undo" the one click app's changes, but to my knowledge this has no adverse effects. There is currently no widely know one click method on the way so you will have to root the good ole fashioned way, computer/cable/rsd there are a few guides and its not really as scary as people think

UniversalAndroot???
It didn't work. I have stock 2.2 id like 2.2 rooted with chevy ulow1.25 but I can't figure it out.
There is no way to root FRG22D (your likely build) without using RSD Lite to my knowledge.

I decided to start using my old revolution as a backup phone. It is basically a brand new refurbished replacement they sent me a while back that I've never used. When I go to update it to gingerbread it says that there isn't an update available. I'm just wondering if Verizon pulled the update when they ended its life and is there any way I can still root it and and install a gingerbread rom on it without first updating to gingerbread? Any help would be appreciated.

You need to be on gingerbread to install a gingerbread ROM or you'll brick your phone, it's a complete pain in the ass to fix so I wouldn't try it. There are instructions to manually update to gb in the dev section if you have access to a pc...

I've never used a rom, but my guess is you'll need to return to stock like everyone else. pick your poison and read some more.
RSD Lite method
PathSaver method
You will need to install the 4ever root patch after root, before going up.
Thanks for the help I was about to just update while on theory haha..

Hi I'm new to the forum and I have some questions. hopefuly I'm in the right area.
Ok #1 so I own a bionic and I've had it about 10 months now. Should I wait for the new ics then root or should I just root now?
#2 What are the pros and cons of rooting the bionic? I still own the orginal droid and its rooted and it was a bada$$ phone. I just want to know if it will be the same with the bionic.
#3 If i root can anybody point me to a good root program? I've been searching and found motofail and petes root tool. Are these any good?
Thanks to anybody that can help
You can root using motofail if on the .902 or .905 update petes method works on prior versions. If u install a ics leak you can also root with razor edges method.

Motofail is easy as hell to root the Bionic with. There is a special edition of Motofail (only root program period) that worked for my Bionic running ICS. I say if you are willing to tinker. Install ICS .232 and than root.
Thanks man. How do I get my hands on the ICS leak?? Every time I find it the link says error nothing here.
