root for FRG22D

Hey guys,
Trying to help a buddy at work unlock his driod1 - he updated to FFRG22D - now any of the single click root methods do not work..
My phone is a nexus1 and did not have these issues: As I am not a Droid owner / user I am hoping people in the forums here help to get him rooted.
I would like to get him on to ClockWork - so we can flash CM6 on his droid.
Can someone point me to a good guide to rooting this?
Cheers,

hey if he is OTA FRG22D can you please post his build.prop file for me to take a look at, it can be found under /system on phone memory, i am working out a market fix for rooted frg01b users like my self, i wont update until after frg22d is rooted for real but i can spoof the version and fingerprint if i have that file contents

i found what i was looking for after a while, thanks.

Have you had any luck? My buddy had his phone replaced and the new one has this update, but he would like me to root it again for him.

can you not just download the old froyo, put it in the sd as update.zip, flash that then root?

FRG22D hotspot app
I have the OTA FRG22D stock unrooted. In-order to root it, I used the following procedure, from droidforums:
"Root Droid 1 - regardless of OS version". After installing the custom recovery:
"MC1_A855_1282081087_Recovery-Only_SPRecovery_0.99.3b.sbf", I was then successful installing a wifi hotspot app

So to root I just rename the file to update.zip and install it that way?

The one click root apps do not work with FRG22D. The exploit those apps used was patched with this release.
The FRG01B & FRG22B stock/odex/deodex only work for devices that are already rooted. Meaning that if you do manage to imstall them you will not have root.
You need to do a *sbf* back to 2.1 or2.01.

Flashed his package which roots and disables the attempt at the droid to unroot

well, ****. I'm new so I can't post outside links yet, but go to droidforums and search "[HowTo] Root, Deodex, and Theme Droid Froyo 2.2 FRG22D"
worked fine for me, no issues so far.

I'm new to the Droid 1 I came from the Eris and it is easy!!!!
Okay so I did it with out even having internet on my pc or Linux laptop which thank god I finally got internet today!!!! Use the rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin method... Super easy I actually downloaded using my D1 transfered file from my phone to Linux laptop and changed the Windows commands to Linux commands and it worked and then I went in to market and flashed Clockwork!!!! Oh and yes I'm on FRG22D the phone came as a replacement for my Eris and it already had this build on it... PM me if you have any questions...

hi all,

It doesn't.

The method that RodNoc_eR just mentioned above just worked for me. Here's the link again: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-labs/74028-root-droid-1-regardless-os-version.html

for those of you who are doing this the complicated way, THERE IS a ONE-CLICK METHOD, since I cant post links, Google SuperOneClick, download and find instructions, its pretty much as easy as downloading the .zip, extracting it to where ever you want, right click on SuperOneClick application and Run as Administrator, make sure USB debugging is checked, DO NOT mount as USB storage device, click root button on the program, let it do its thing, and wa-la!
You have acheived root! Be sure to download the Custom Recovery of your choice, which is as easy as DLing Rom Manager from the Market and flashing ClockworkMod, I just did this and am now happy I spent time searching and not typing commands into the SDK, super easy and it works for the DROID 1 FRG22d, I just did it.
Enjoy!

[Q] Rooting my Captivate

Is there a easier way to Root your captivate, I have tried several one click or different ways and have had no luck. Anybody can help me with this or point me in the right direction that works? the one click app don't work I really want to add and run other apps.
And also the KIES software does not work it never did. I really don't like the software even after trying the lite version. I like Droid Explorer. Oh yea this is on a 2.2 Froy OS

Have you considered joining the party and flashing a custom ROM? They all come prerooted to make your lives easier. At least I know my ROMS, MikeyMikes and anything by designgears does. I have not tried the rest yet.

I would definitely follow adam's advice and just flash a new rom. here is a good tutorial to help you get started:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884364
Adam's roms are great as well as DG's. Give one of them a try and realize how good of a phone the captivate really is.

Paragon is pre rooted also.

OP said one click doesn't work for him lol but op have you enabled usb debugging before trying out one click? Just asking to make sure. Although I recommend going the custom rom route as well
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897

If you are that stuck on rooting only, and one click really doesnt work for you (thats a first).
Google root captivate. A root update.zip should be very easy to find, put it on your internal sd card, reboot into recovery mode and select reinstall packages.
Id post one, but i am on my phone...

^ not going to be able to root on stock froyo at the recovery 3e wont let you install unsigned zips. The one workaround to this would be flashing a custom kernel via ODIN and then using that custom recovery to root.

Doh! I missed that.
Maybe odin to 2.1, and install a custom rom / kernel package...

New to Nook.

Just got my Nook today, and am interested in rooting it. I'm looking for the best method to do so.
I have rooted my HTC Inspire using Bubby's one click method, so I'm not completely unfamiliar with the process, but want to make sure of the preferred method for the Nook before I started.
Any and all insight would be appreciated.

That would be appreciated, things I'm wanting to do:
- Market (I've got various items I paid for, that I would like to try).
- Fix ROM Manager, when trying to download, I get "Must upgrade...", then a force close. I'm assuming this is because I don't have the paid version installed, which I can download from Market (since I purchased it)
- Install Amazon Kindle (for the irony factor).
Any insight would be great, since I'm obviously new at this (I've owned my Nook for about 15 hours)

I used the method described in Cyanogen's wiki and had the same issue. I ended up having to install through recovery instead of ROM Manager.

So is rom manager not working for you?

OK, I am now officially pissing myself. I am now able to get into Clockwork Recovery, I've wiped Factory/Cache/Dalvik, applied CM, and after a system reboot, it just goes back into recovery.
Help!

I am not having any luck whatsoever, and am afraid I bricked my device.
I've attempted to do a CM install (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Barnes_&_Noble_Nook_Color:_Full_Update_Guide), but after putting the image on, and rebooting, it goes to black, but never comes back up.
Not sure what to try at this point.

OK, something new, I was able to return back to 1.0.1, but when I get to step 5 of setup, it indicates there is a problem, and to call B&N. It reports that the serial number, model number, and Mac address ing as "MISSING", and it is at version 1.0.1.
I do have a blue dot on the box.

Motofail (GB+ICS): Universal Motorola Android Root Tools (Portable)

For convenience sake, I have compiled the Motofail rooter into a single exe file (for use on builds with a GB-based kernel). I have also compiled the ICS root exploit into a single exe file as well (for builds based on a true ICS kernel). No code has been changed, and all credit goes to Dan Rosenberg (@djrbliss).
Universal Gingerbread (GB) Rooter: Download HERE (virus free)
Universal Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) Rooter: Download HERE (virus free)
These rooters have been tested and working on Droid 3, Droid Bionic, Droid RAZR, Droid 4, even on the latest ROM releases like the 5.9.905 for the Bionic and the official/cheesecake ICS leaks. Please make sure you use the right rooter, one is for GB and the other is for ICS. These will work on the official OTA releases as well as any custom ROMs.
If needed, the latest Motorola USB PC drivers can be downloaded here:
http://www.motorola.com/Support/US-...tware_and_Drivers/USB-and-PC-Charging-Drivers

So I'm almost ready to use this but I do need to know if there is a way to unroot back to stock on the .902 root.

No, this is nothing more than the standard motofail, it is just compiled into a single EXE file now. I created it because I had people asking me how to use Motofail. One guy asked me what file he runs, or if he copies the files into his sytem of his phone **yikes**, so I made this just for convenience sake (it only runs on Windows, so it should be pretty clear).

Thanks crobs! This is a great idea. I want to let you know I've added it to my step-by-step guide, which I hope will be helpful for anyone who is unsure how to use this tool to root their phone.

wow ok i thought this was self explainatory run .batch file i guess people have never used a one click root exploit wouldn't know but this was by far the easiest root method other than odin of coarse

A lot of people find this website when they want to do something specific with their phone. The majority of them do not know what a batch file is. The devs on here have a lot of good information but spit it out at a high level, expecting people to just "know" a ton of information right off the .bat (pun intended)
I am simply trying to bridge the gap, as you can probably infer from my practical/layman-term tutorials.

Tried this with Xoom but says: remount failed

Edit: Could whoever did this include the local.prop file and step 5. from the original Dan Rosenberg thread? Apparently then it would also work for Xoom tablets.
PRETTY PLEASE!

I would be happy to rebuild it, however what file are you referring to? I thought I packaged the latest version, and I never saw anything about it working on the Xoom to begin with. Feel free to enlighten me though because once it worked on my Bionic, I stopped researching.

thanks and I have a question. adb is broken on my Bionic and has been for months that's why I haven't updated until now because all root exploits until recently have utilized adb and for some reason, my adb on my Bionic is broken except for adb wireless, so does Motofail use adb at any point during its process? i mean it kinda has to doesn't it? I don't know I've never known how the root programs work step by step, its just most i've ever used have used adb, except on my Droid Eris I had a one-click root.

i think you need adb

i got my adb working. I updated my phone to .902 on a hunch that it might fix my adb and it worked. I ran motofail and this is what i got
[*] Deploying payload...
cannot stat 'motofail': No such file or directory
Unable to chmod /data/local/motofail: No such file or directory
[*] Owning phone...
/data/local/motofail: not found
[*] Rebooting device...
[*] Waiting for phone to reboot.
actually.....my phone didn't update which is weird. it got stuck in a bootloop and so i went into factory recovery and factory reset it, and it went back to .886. but I got it forever rooted so hopefully it will be able to update successfully from here

FXZ is the process of resetting your phone to a stock ROM release (i.e. an official operating system/firmware from your provider, Verizon). So when someone says "FXZ your phone to .902" they mean "Reset, or "flash", your phone to the Verizon stock ROM that is version 5.9.902. The FXZ process requires you to hook up your phone via USB, boot into a special mode, then use a program called "RSD Lite" to flash the stock rom (a ZIP file) to your phone.
This process wipes all user data, settings, files, apps, etc and can be useful when trying to undo custom changes or in preparation for flashing a custom ROM. The process will not delete or alter any files on the SD card.

What is lapdock and what issues are with it?
The reason i asked is because i am having issues with CWM on my phone but SafeStrap works perfect.
Since i dont know what lapdock is, can i flash this and not have any issues?
Thanks in advance!

To further clear this up, this is NOT a fxz. It is just a deodexed stock rom.

Thank you all for your response. you've been very helpful.
