You must install busybox on your phone. You pointed that out to me a long time ago with a different phone you were modding. We successfully modded his phone today. :D

Go to the market on your phone, find and install busybox, then follow the video tutorial at the beginning of this thread. Worked just fine, but make sure to plug the phone in and install the drivers. (We used the drivers that came with the phone. Simply plug the phone in, hit autorun, and go through the install, then unplugged the phone, and plugged it back in when the video says to.)


I hope this puts a stop to the problem other people are having. I know Mac42 is really happy right now.

<Edit> We also had the drivers listed in the main post installed on the computer. Please test and post if this works for you.
 
I tried your way perionoid, and still no root... The whole message doesn't change, so I don't know what to do from here... Copy the warp drive files, right, not the drivers for the phone? If I am correct on this, then it didn't work.
 
Sorry if this has been asked already but couldn't find anything by doing a search. Im new to these smartphones and learning alot from these forums but still not 100% on what Im doing.

I'm thinking about rooting my phone but have alot of apps and info on it that I don't want to lose. Can I root and still keep my apps or am I gonna have to reload everything? What's the best way to backup what I have so I can get it moved to the rooted device?

Thanks for any help you guys can give me.

You will not lose anything during the rooting process, but if you're paranoid,
1.all of your contacts are backed up to your google account
2. market purchases are synced to google acct (in market, menu> my apps and scroll to not installed)
3 go SMS (from the market) can backup/restore your text messages
4. Pictures, music and pretty much all your non-app related downloads are stored on your sd card. (you can copy/paste to/from pc before/after to be safe)
5.rooting is fun, all the cool kids are doing it :p
 
the warp was good, not that its rooted its great. i just rooted mine using this thread. big ups to interdpth and shaggy, you guys rock. i cant believe how simple it was. my previous phone was the i1, i tried rooting it but soon discovered it to be impossible. so yea im loving my rooted warp, again thanks interdpth and shaggy:D

Start up Superuser and go into the preferences. Down near the bottom is Outdated binary notification. Turn it off.

Just had the same problem and I troubleshot the usb and then ran the autorun and it worked !! had to plug and unplug the USB a couple times....and had to run the actuall root program 2 times ...but it's done and working perfectly now. I have the same specs as you above so it can be done it's just a little resistant at first ....keep checking in your notifications bar and if you see the little android dude then you are all set !! Hope that this helps ..
:eek: THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE THAT GOT THE ROOT FOR THIS UP AND WORKING SO QUICKLY !! YOU ALL ARE AMAZING !! :eek:
 
jus bought a warp and learning about all this root stuff. thanks tho for the assistance in moving one step foward much apprieciated
 
so i figured out how to fix the binarys, first you need to have root explorer, go to /system/apps/superuser.apk and move it to /data/apps/...... now should be in with your normally downloaded apps instead of a system app. now manage applications/superuser...... uninstall. seeing as now that you are rooted, you can go to the market, download superuser, install, and now it will allow you to update the su binary to the newest version. enjoy, took 2 hours of trial and error, but it works. after its updated, feel free to move super user back to a system app.
 
Thank you for this tutorial and post, I got referred here by Knoxville363 and the guy definitely knows the hook ups:D! Since I rooted my ZTE Warp phone so many doors have opened to expanding the capabilities of this phone! Which has increases its value! I am loving it thank you so much again!:)
 
brand new to android, you posted this one click root on my bday ;\, worked great wanted to show my appreciation, gonna donate a few bills when times are better.;)
 
Apparently this will not work when doing it on a Mac?

nm I used my Windows machine BUT it did not work to click run as administrator it did however work when I clicked Open. Not sure how or why..but I'm rooted for the 1st time ever.
