Root Having trouble rooting

[jaystang50]

I'm new to the rooting process, so please forgive me if you've heard this question before. I've read up on a lot of stuff and have attempted to have at least some basic knowledge of how the process works before beginning rooting.

I've downloaded PetesMotorolaTools and tried the 1-click root procedure, but I've been getting the following error:

ERROR: we have root, but couldn't push su

Try un-rooting first, then running root.

I've never rooted this phone and I'm running the stock GB .605.

Does anybody know what my next course of action should be?

do as it says, just unroot it, and try again, make sure usb debugging is enabled!

I've tried that a couple of times, to no avail.

I've made sure USB debugging is checked and phone in "charge only" mode and toggling between "pc mode" as well...still no dice.

I know this maybe a stupid question but did you install the Moto drivers first?

-Make sure you have Motorola drivers installed

I've deleted and reinstalled the drivers (version 5.2.0 I believe) and I'm still getting the error.

Good news, I finally got root!

I had to enter a command prompt, but after that it worked fine. I was a little nervous at first since this is my first shot at this, but all seems to be ok. Now I just have to build up the nerve to try and flash a new ROM on this thing.

That's the easy part. Glad you got it working.
