my friend took ota update this week now we have trouble

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

Need help please

I'm currently running theory ROM with 893, I want to update to 902 can I do that
While using theory ROM? If not what am I supposed to be running to do so? Also I deleted some bloatware I heard this might be a problem is there a way to get them back "honestly I forgot which ones they where" I been reading alot of post but I can't find any good info

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..

Not sure if I can post links or not, so go to rootzwiki, then go to forums, then click on Droid bionic, then click on Droid bionic developer forum, then click on Th3oryrom and you'll find it.

That would be a negative

Don't see why you can post external links to development sites where deving is placed there used to be links to rootzwiki on my charge all the time so i don't see why not

I think the reason this thread hasn't blown up is because everyone is still trying to keep root on .902
Nevertheless, I am still in that group. Post up some screenshots!

No camera, no calendar, but 4g data! Awesomeness. Can't wait till the above get worked out so I can say buhbye to gingerbread!
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium

Every one says 3g/4g is not working correctly, only 1x or 3g if your not in a 4g area.
Edit: I see there seems to be a work around, by turning on the LTE ram dump.

Is it a port of this?

You need to go to 902 from 893 not 901. I think you can flash stock 893 in rsd, use voodoo from the market to save root, then take the OTA update and restore root with voodoo, but I'm not 100% sure voodoo works on the bionic (it does on my transformer prime)

Xda has lost its luster. When I started rooting phones, everyone was linking to xda because this was the main source. Now I'm seeing that rootzwiki is the main source. Not sure why that is, maybe someone else can give an explanation

I am running it now on my Bionic. I am at 5.9.901 software it does work.
no camera, no calendar. but it is very fast and I like it.

I think its because theres a lot of new users who don't read before they ask questions or start threads. I have seen rom threads where a question that was answered 10 times in the last 5 pages continues to be asked. The search function is horrible on here but if you can't read the last few pages of a thread, or 2-3 pages of thread titles before asking a question or starting a thread then you are just cluttering up the forum. I have seen a few devs leave simply because of all the people that wouldn't read a few pages, or even the OP before asking stupid questions which have already been answered. Also the moderation in some sub forums is horrible, that's another big reason I've seen a lot of devs leave.

Thank you for the explanation. Makes sense.

It isn't hard to keep root. ROTA893 is your friend

new to the bionic. root or not to root.

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.

[Q] HELP! Droid Bionic Root

Hi, I just bought a Droid Bionic running 2.3.4 and I have been searching up how to root it. I figured out that I need the MotorolaOneClickRoot tool to do it, but every time I try to download it the link is dead. Can anyone give me a good link to download it and if possible, send me the steps to rooting it as I am still not good at this kind of stuff. Thanks in advance.

Google "House of Bionic"
Follow directions on site and you will be good.

I searched it up and I read a bunch of stuff on it. I know I sound stupid, but I'm still confused on what it is and he doesn't give steps for newbies on how to get it. He uses lots of terms that I don't know of. Also, when I read it I understood that it is not exactly what I was looking for. It's not really "rooting" the phone. Can anyone give me any clear instructions on how to "root" my Droid Bionic? I want to be able to get ICS on it. Thanks.

The house of bionic is several steps rolled into one so I will break apart for you.
1. You need to be on. 905
2. The first steps in the program will update you to. 246
3. Then it will root your phone on. 246
4. Then YOU will need to install SS 3.05
Install all the files he tells you and follow the prompts and you have rooted phone on ICS
Sent from my Icarus Bionic

The house won't root a 905 phone which is what the op was asking for. Search for motofail-gb. That will take care of it.

If you want ics then search for ota under settings. Its available for bionic now.
