[How To] One-Click Root Your Droid X [Official 2.2 OTA]

how did you restart the adv server and login?

Never mind. Reading directions FAIL!

Hint: Read whats happening in the command lines.

LOL, its supposed to be blank. Once you start opening apps and you get the popup screen asking you to give it superuser permission and you click ok, those apps you gave permission to will be listed.
 
[*] adb connection will be reset. restart adb server on desktop and re-login.
could not kill pid 8911: No such process


This is the message I'm getting. Any way to fix this??

There pretty much is one click root now if you have the dev stuff installed. I'm not very DX savvy and I got it working.
 
Well I got it to successfully root, now what? It looks the same and everything. Did I miss something? First time rooting heh :S
 
says it was successful with no errors. time to test it out. thanks for the guide. very clear and helpful.

SWYPE no longer working???

Greetings all, first post here.

I'm familiar with OS hacking, having come from a Blackberry life before Droid. I went ahead and downloaded the correct files to root my Droid X on my Mac, and all went well. I have the little ninja for SU, and I went ahead and DLed wireless tether, no problems.

Anyway, it took me a few minutes to realize that aside from the root working correctly, I seem to have lost my Swype input keyboard. Several of the buttons are blanks instead of function buttons, and when I press a key, there is a thin blue outline that surrounds the entire keyboard.

Has this happened to anyone else? Have I n=missed something in the root process, and if so, how do I correct it??


Thanks All :)
 
How do i UNROOT, Camera and Swype, and pict gallery not working, I dont want root if these are some on the problems
 
Ok, I'm dumb. Ran the processes, put everything in tools for SDK, clicked doroot batch file and it ran fine. At the end it says I am rooted with zero errors, cool! Problem is barnaacle and all my other root only programs don't work, and I can't find anything related to superuser permissions on my phone. Am I missing a step? Was I supposed to load anything to the SDcard that I didn't? I have done a battery pull or 2 and still nothing. I know I'm missing something, just don't know what. Any help is greatly appreciated!
