dont use one click lagfix for anything.

I never had a one click lag fix for anything, it was a one click root. The lag fix was an update.zip file

I ended up reverting to Eclair and flashing Cognition4 for the time being. It's as close to bone stock Official Froyo from Samsung as it gets. That and I didn't check back and see your post before I had begun flashing Cognition4... lol.
Was anyone else successful? Original poster, how'd it go, did the above mentioned OneClicker work for ya?

Yeah, i one click rooted my 2.2 Captivate earlier today. No problems at all.

Cool...
I wonder why just placing the Update.zip on the Internal SD, booting into recovery <3e>, and reinstalling the update doesn't work??
I had tried that method as well and still got the signature error stop.
Oh well...

You can use this modded recovery to install things with 3e, or enable the use of CWM.
Worked for me.

[ROM] CM7-GBKernel .621

I Have created a CM7 rom for rooted 621 and it should a lot easier to use now that I have tested personally and everything works as it should no need for gapps as it has vendor.apk in it and it will update to playstore.
Flashing Instructions
1:Back-up always
2:full wipe
3:install rom via CWR or bootstrap
4:Gapps arent needed but you may flash just to be comfortable
5: reboot
6: leave me feedback
7: enjoy

Known Bugs:
Settings does not open working on it right now.
let me know what you guys think.
change log:
Settings updated should work now
I Have finally fixed the settings

will this work on gb.605?

I can't flash it yet because my computer is in the repair shop and I never do anything risky with my phones unless my computer is nearby

Well Im very new at modding Droid X, but I have an important question...
Is the hdmi fully working?
Or is there any rom which make it work as it should?
I mean something like a mirror.
Thanks!

Downloading Now. I just hope it's for the rooted .621 Non-Milestone hack. The Milestone hack (for root) is .604.

Update:
First I tried it without gapps. Everything booted fine, but there was no market nor would accounts/ sync let me add Google account.
So, I rebooted into recovery, which worked fine, and flashed gapps.
This time on boot, I actually got the Droid X welcome screen, was able to put in Google info, and market initiator ran and updated.
After that everything worked fine.
Tested Bluetooth, Messages, Gps and Calls. Didn't get chance to try Wifi yet, but I'm sure it works since everything-else does.
The only thing that Would be better is an updated Superuser. The 1 included will NOT update SU Binary. I think it's the old edify binary. Even by updating Superuser in the market WON'T help. Although an easy fix is to get RootUninstaller and uninstall Rom Superuser, then download new 1 from the market and install.
Keep up the hard work. Nice Rom.

Finally, does this works for any other gb kernel besides .621?
Anybody please tell us!

Nope, but maybe yes

Nope, but I may have a bad download as I forgot to check the Md5 sum before I flashed. Install was aborted. I can't try again right now because I have another phone to flash and have to go to bed early tonight.

And thank your for the review I've been waiting for a review like that I've created a couple roms and no one has have gave me so much input

No prob Kiladar. I think if someone is going to comment on someones work, they should at least review it and be as informative as possible. It makes it easier
on the devs to look at potential probs/fixes too.
Oh yea, I also got to looking into your system/app folder in your zip. The vending.apk is Not in there, which i would say is why I had to flash the gapps. Just wanted you to know.
Also there is no "boot.img" (which is kernel right?) in the new dwnload.

Right, I will update OP saying to flash gapps rather then say not needed

wifi works just fine with it, and I agree bout the updated superuser since you cant uninstall the one you have with it which means you also cant update to the new superuser because they are different volumes but over all nice ROM.:good:

I had it working on mine but my .605 was the .621/.605 deodexed hacked version cause I was on the .621 before I did the work around on the magic 5 route, originally I did the .604 work around but it should work on the .605 stock rooted, but then again I was also running the kernel for the .621 sooooo if the kernel is the key for running it maybe you cant.
Try another download, maybe you did get a bad DL

I tried this again but, I think the real problem is with my microSD card. I have subsequently tried to flash other roms and have had other aborts as well. I know that the md5's on those checked out. I was able to flash a cm9 based rom and got it set up just fine. All this from the same card on the same phone. Sooo I am attempting to format the card just in case I have bad sectors or something.
Luckily my DX is no longer activated and just keeps me from killing my SGS3 with flashes.:silly:

I hear ya, I had the same prob with sd card so i formatted mine as well, problem was still there though. whenever i tried to install a rom from sd card via rom manager the problem was i kept getting the message saying waiting for sd cart to mount then it would say error bla bla bla sending log file to cwm ect ect ect.... i dont know exactally how i fixed that, all i know is i installed another rom, like cm7 or cm9 for instance and after that whenever i went to back up rom it worked fine ever since.... maybe something flashes over correcting the sd card problem when you install a rom... I know rom manager checks to verify the marker on sd card and thats what your problem is I believe.
Try doing this, try installing a rom cm7/cm9 without making a backup (i know you could lose everything if it fails but its the only way i know that fixed mine) after you have installed cm7/9 go to rom manager and hit the Backup Current Rom it should reboot you to cwm recovery and make an auto backup, if it does this without throwing up the waiting for sd card to mount error stuff and it runs the backup program and then reboots you it should fix your sd card problems.....

Review this rom
this is by far a ROM with the least lag by far i tried liquid ICS and plenty others don't know what it is but the lag is really minimal runs really smooth i only have this for like 3 hours but will update soon
pls hit thanks if i helped

He is rooted, otherwise Titanium Backup wouldn't have worked for him in the first place. I could be wrong, though.

Personally I'd rather remove all apps I don't want or need rather than freeze them ... There's **** on my phone that I just want gone completely and not just disbaled or frozen, Facebook integration and Blinkfeed would be gone straight away lol

I'm rooted. And I can delete them but they magically get redownloaded and installed again An hour later. I want them gone for good

I have not tried removing system applications using TitaniumBackup on my HTC One, to be honest with you, and I am running stock, non-rooted and odexed 4.2.2 which I am going to root in a few. I think the only option you have at the moment is to freeze them until you can figure something out. The only other option I could think of is installing a custom ROM which I believe lets you delete them without having to worry about them coming back, like TrickDroid, for instance.

Tried to dl that app yet? I had the same prob when running stock for a while. Sorted my issues.

What version of Kingo did you try? Use 1.1.5 or 1.1.8. People have had success with that. 1.1.8 worked for me. Just Google around and you will find the download on the net somewhere.

You can try a factory reset and then root. If not there is a thread in the general section to go back to stock. Works great. I used it.

You are but we can't figure out why you can't root when others in your situation can. There is Kingo thread you can check out. Maybe you can find some answers there.

Factory Reset after the update to NB4, also go to recovery wipe cache, then try the 1.18, during the rooting process, look your phone screen, you need to click accept something twice,

I don't know how it all works terribly well but you said you still have Safestrap? Can you still install ROMs and can they have root?
Also, for when you eventually do get it working again. I recommend freezing the ATT updater. It can be awful when it eventually FORCES an update.
I got a free app called App Quarantine and froze "AT&T Software Update".

You will just have to follow the restore to MJ5 thread. The instructions are simple and very easy to follow. Go slow and follow them to the T.
What they do not mention however is do not use a 3.0 USB port. Only 2.0 will work.
Just follow that.
It is literally impossible to brick this phone to the point of it being unrecoverable. There is a tutorial to restore from hard bricks without J-Tag.

Hey graydiggy, I did the restore back to MJ5, but can't seem to get the last step for rooting to work. I tried every way with putting the rdlv on internal...unzipped and zipped. I even tried doing the same on the external sd as well. When I reboot supersu doesn't do anything. Any suggestion on how to get the last step to work?
Thanks in advance for your help.

It has to be unzipped and on the internal. You have to reboot a few times for it to activate. After the first reboot, let the phone sit for a few minutes and then reboot again. You should be good to go after that.
