I hate for this to be the first thread in the ROMS and Rooting area, but...

Has anyone else had problems with the root method posted in the main Droid 4 forum by Phil?
Mine seems to hang up at 'deploying payload.'

Anyone had luck running it in a 64 bit environment? Do any of the USB modes affect it (i.e. charge only, PC mode, etc.)?

This is probably going to be something stupid that I completely glazed over, but if anyone can share if/how they got it to work, I would appreciate it.

I just used the Utility and it worked perfectly. Thanks for the tip!

I just picked up my D4 today upgrading from my DINC2. I was a little hesitant at first because my DINC2 is rock solid and I was a little afraid of reboot issues like I had with my DX. So far, so good. Battery life seems to be fine even with LTE turned on. So far I'm happy with the purchase.

I rooted my D4 with the Linux Droid 4 Utility by skylarm at XDA. It's based on mattlgroff's utility & has his blessing. Worked out of the box for me.
