Safestrap isn't working - Motorola Droid 4

I just picked up a Droid 4 and I've been trying to install Safestrap and it keeps closing when I try and open it. It's on stock 4.0.4 and I've tried Safestrap 3, 2.00 and 2.11....
Any ideas?

Nevermind my space cadet moment....I kinda need root before don't I?

The easiest first step would be to hope you made a backup of when you first installed clockwork... if not, how long of a window before you have to send it back?

Flashing the tot file does not actually take it back to stock. When I went from Revolt to GB, I removed CWM then flashed the V6 tot. ALL of my data was still there, apps and all. It might take all the OS parts back, but it doesn't do any type of data wipe.

I just did the stupidest thing. I was cleaning up my sd card for more space when I went to my safe strap folder and just decided to delete the whole folder now I realized the second I did that I don't have an unsafe system to flash to. I'm on 5.7.906. What do I do!!??

I had trouble finding Droid 3 Bootstraper also. I have upped it to depositfiles. It's the only version I had saved (I believe it is ver 1.0.0.5), and I'm not sure if there are newer versions than this.

You must be rooted to be able to Safestrap. I haven't gone through the Razr JB upgrade threads but I hope Rootkeeper works becuse I would not want to wait for a root method to be discovered.

I was at one point til i fast booted back to factory image. Wont root again until after ota

To be on the safe side I would root then use OTA Rootkeeper, you may have to wait a while to get root and it will drive you crazy.
Did that on my tablet updating from ics to jb and install kept failing. Ill safely update then work on root myself. Rest assured all goes well and someone doesnt beat me too it i will be posting.

When using vodoo... does one have to simply click protect root and then update or is there more to it...
Sent from my DROID4 using xda app-developers app
To successfully maintain root and install the OTA do the following
Root Phone
Install VooDoo OTA RootKeeper
Update SuperUser binaries (from within the SU app
Open VooDoo and "Protect Root"
Then tap on "Temp Unroot"
Install OTA
Install VooDoo
Restore root
So... I forgot to do all this... I hope there is a root for jb coming soon still have su just no root...

[Q] How i can get root without rom install?

Hi everyone! As I wrote in title how i can get super user priority, but without instal a new ROM?
Thanks in advance!
not possible
Actually I think you can do it with the toolkit
Sent from my GT-I8190 using Tapatalk 2
Try bin4ry root many android method, I rooted my S3 with that method.
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app
It's possible by flashing cwm in odin and then supersu.zip, or by flashing an insecure boot with toolkit.
Try the toolkit from the dev section. I rooted my phone using the toolkit
