Wow it worked, I ran the SBF 2.2 file that james2442 posted and root is gone. And phone is working with out flaw. Thank you everyone for your help. Hope i can return the favor soon.

Big thanks to James2442 for posting that link. And I found thank button on computer not tapatalk LOL.

Didnt work.

 

[james2442]

Dont forget to use the "Thanks" button, if you truly want to thank someone. It will change that posters 'Thanked by' count so they can show they are a productive person in society (it also creates a warm fuzzy feeling in their tummy ).

Agreed...got my first thanks...made me smile

@james2442 First off, I owe you a huge thanks. You're little explanation helped me out a ton.

I followed your advice and now I'm rooted on 2.2 and able to use SetCPU again.

Step by Step Instructions:
1. Downloaded RSD Lite v4.8
2. Downloaded the SBF File that is located in the link.
3. Set X to PC Mode and turned on USB Debugging
4. Plugged into computer
5. Opened RSDLite
6. Selected the SBF File in RSD Lite
7. Hit Start button and let it process through it's actions. It took about 8 minutes.
8. Process completed, checked for SU file and it was gone.
9. Rooted using the DoRoot.bat and everything worked perfect.

Thanks alot

Okay so I did this and the app said congratulations you are now rooted.

So how do I check on my phone to see if I am actually rooted? Last time I rooted on 2.1 I got the ninja guy to come up on my phone and let me click superuser permissions button but not this time.

 

[moosc]

so what is the proper steps? i mean do i launch cd/adb shell etc the directions are not very clear how to start this....

the easiest way is to open an app that requires root, if you get the grant superuser access and can allow it, obviously you're rooted. If not The process above involving rsd lite is not to root your phone, but it clears out the root files if you were rooted using 2.1 and then did the update (official) to froyo. After running the above process, you will be stock 2.2. Then check out Team Black Hat, for 2.2 root instructions.

Help

k, got things running. there is a step that says "adb connection will be reset. restart adb server on desktop and re-login." how do i do this? no mention on xda

nm: figured it out. this worked flawlessly, once i pulled my head out of my rear

Hey guys. I just joined!

I see there was some talk about how if you wait awhile that the connection will reset. How long is awhile. Mine has been up for 10 +minutes and nothing has changed. It's been so long that I have also started to mess with my phone while it is still hooked up. Is that bad to do? Or will it run in the background regardless? Should I reboot my Droid?
I have Froyo 2.2 and I am doing all of this through my Ubuntu box. If you couldn't tell already

 

[MasterKtulu]

I'd also like to add that when I put my phone in PC mode, the script runs fine. (Although stopping and saying "adb connection will be reset. restart adb server on desktop and re-login.")
When I put it in Charge only mode it just sits on "

Checking for devices...

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *"

Indefinitely. . .

Help?

 

[galpdawg]

i just put my phone in each mode and tried the root button, eventually one of them worked, once i found the right one it only took like a min .

 

[Hosehead]

I got the error could not kill pid 12339: No such process and have been sitting here for 10 minutes since it appeared with nothing changing...

Then I unplugged the device and reconnected...and it started over again...
and was successful.

Well done!
