Jelly Bean Root

I recently downloaded CM10 and flashed JB to my Droid 4, but I can't seem to find a way to root my phone again. Everything is for ICS. Is there any way to root my JB D4?

It's already rooted if you flashed JB. Check your apps and verify that you have SuperUser installed. You don't lose root when flashing a custom rom.

Sorry, I misspoke. When I said flash, I meant I SBF'd to 6.7.2.
I didn't have superuser, and even when I installed it, I get a FC on apps that require su.

6.7.2-180_dr4-m2-37 is ICS if that is what you are referring to... Android version 4.0.4...

You must b on ics, you can't get to jb on the d4 unless u r rooted and running a custom rom, so just check your android version in your about phone settings and see if it says 4.0.4. And if it does than u r on ics.

[Q] How to root official Android 4.0 phone?

I have P990 with original Android 2.3.4. I rooted my phone using unlockroot.com . Now I am planning to upgrade to official Android 4.0 from LG.
Can anyone tell me would I be able to root my phone again? Would it be possible with All-in-one P990 Toolkit from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020737 and how?
Thanks

Answers are out there already. You shouldve done a little more searching.
Anyway, it is possible. Are you on custom ROM? if you are and if you want to use another 4.0+ custom ROM, just change partition using the All-in-one P990 Toolkit. Follow instruction then install new ROM that is ics/jelly bean based..
If you want official upgrade and root. In this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097570, the guy has done it also using the AIO Tool. using option 3.

If you have problems with CWM you should check here the points 8 and 26 to 30. I have the some problem but unfortunately I have no clue how to fix it, even with those tips, but maybe it'll work for you. And if you'll find any easy way to install CWM for stock recovery <3e> please let me know, I've been struggling with it for quite some time now.
Also remember to choose right CSC when installing stock rom - you can check what your code is here.

[Q] Question about custom rom firmware

Hi guys, im really new to this forum and all about these android stuffs. As this is my first post, im terribly sorry if i started a new thread. yesterday, i flashed my galaxy mini from stock gingerbread firmware to this custom rom forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2409566
it worked greatly, it says that my android version is 4.0.4 . But, when i installed apps that is supposed to work at ICS, it cant work. It can be installed, but when I tried to run it, it just said that unfortunately, the application had stopped working. im really confused. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Which app was that? It's probably an app for armv7 only.

It is BBM. I go through the net to find the system requirements, but i found nothing

I see...... Anyway, as i upgraded from stock gingerbread, and after i flashed that rom, it had provided the play store. I want to know, did the Play Store recognize my phone as still a gingerbread or an ICS? or should I flash an ICS gapps package? will that help?

I started with a stock Froyo ROM. The only tool that I could get to work for Froyo was "blackjack".
This link helped me:

Look for "ROOT ON Froyo (2.2.x, v10x)".
Once you root your phone (superuser will be installed) , install CWM's ROM Manager. From there it's Happy Hacking.
A note (or two):
You're going to have to make a decision about what you want to do concerning stability. Froyo and GingerBread-based ROMs are "solid"; they are usable as "daily-drivers", i.e., you can use them on a daily basis without fear of significant hiccups, freezes, and crashes.
ICS (4.0.4) and greater based-ROMs (including the factory ICS) can be problematic, with freezes, lock-ups, features not working, etc. Some folks are using KitKat-based ROMs as daily-drivers; good for them. They have more patience than I do.
My recommendation for a stable ROM is either Marvel 9 or Zeus 6.4; both are GB-based. Zeus 7.06 was absolute headache for my phone.
If you want to go all-out, try Evisceration's KitKat ROM:

He's one of the few developers still working on this old phone.

When you loaded the ROM and went to install, did it take you to the superuser screen?
Try updating superuser from the Play Store. The version might be old.
