How to root Sprint ZIO

[clink]

Download attached file, install and run. Then install TI backup, and choose to install busybox from the app.

I have no idea who originally wrote this app, but they get all the credit.

This is legit. The Moderators here can vouch for me.

Enjoy.

Can an actual mod post in here to 'vouch' for you? Or say something like 'this is BS' and lock it?

My word obviously isn't official or anything, but I got to this thread by following the link relating to the Zio at the bottom of the root page. That has to say something in the OP's defense, I hope.

Should I root my phone? | Android Central

Edit: This is also a sticky... A mod had to be the one to put it there, correct?

thanks this is working great on my sanyo zio. I do recommend downloading titanium back up the free version so you can backup all of your apps and important stuff.

Alternative Way to root Zio

Hi guys I own a Zio and have successfully rooted it using SuperOneClick. Search it on YouTube. After what the video says you have to reboot for it to take effect. Hope this helps!

Clink has been thanked so many times, How could this be fake?

Softroot didn't work on my 2.2 zio but the full one seems to have worked, I'm installing busybox right now to be certain...

Could you install gingerbread and install the carrier update apps from a backup of froyo?
