So this will be my first Droid root. I've recently crossed over from BBerry and have some experience with custom software builds but first timer for Droid software. Would it be in my best interest to wait until the ED2 update issue has been resolved? Or go ahead with the downgrade and root? This site is awesome by the way!

I dont know, in theory it should be ok but im not fully comfortable with the downgrade idea since we dont have a fix all package to recovery from a major mistake. And with this adding in the LTE radio firmware i dont know how this will effect things... but it seems harmless for now but im still weary about the idea... its up to you , as the user the responsibility for your device is in your hands. The community gives you options and its up to you to decide if you will accept the end result good or bad.
Sorry if the answer is vague but like i said i dont want to push either way.
Understood. I'm ok with the risk, just weighing risk against pro's is all. Guess I will wait a day or two and see if anything changes. Thanks again.
Here's my glass half empty question. What if the guy who took the flash of the ED1 added other crap to his drivers? Malicious files, etc. Not sure if that's even possible, but people are just blindly using one guys flash. Am I wrong or just a worry wart?
He thanks imnuts for the how to make an odin package tutorial. Someone with the knowledge needed to do something like that wouldn't have needed that tutorial in the first place. I trust the source.

[NOTE]Mac Directions have been added to Post #5 , Please dont crucify if temrinal setup isnt on point. as i dont own a Mac. simply post your problems here and help shall come[/NOTE]
Just a question here. I know the phone has only been out a few days, but in your opinion, what timeframe are we looking at to get a workable recovery and a flashable debloated Rom? just curious. Thanks.
I ran the method from post 4. I got the "[!] dance forever my only one" but did not get the SU app in the app tray. When running su from the $ prompt, I get "Permission denied."
I tried the suggestion, quoted here,
then had the same outcome. (The phone did not get the ED2 update, and I just confirmed that Build ends in ED1.)
Any idea what's going on? Thanks.

After you got dance forever prompt, did you enter the last command
/data/local/com.sh

After semi auto root, I got the dance forever line again, and now I have the superuser app. However, I can't run su from the adb shell on my PC. Says Permission denied. What do you make of this?
when you type su look at the screen on the phone, superuser app is probably waiting for you to allow or deny
altough im weary of this method as far as future updates and/or flash mistakes you can downgrade using odin and this will give you ED1 system build rooted and keep the ED2 baseband

Yes, it works. This was in the instructions I read earlier but forgot. Thanks for the reminder and all of your help.
I am weary of this aswell, any word on if its at all possible to root ED2 or is it just no one found it yet
No word yet, im waiting on clockwork then i think we should have no problems rooting
