Root ***[How-To] Root your Droid X***

[D13]

But I enter exploit and within a half second it says permission denied not even enough time to turn off and on.

Do I have to start from the beginning?

umm yeah I don't know what could be wrong, I guess try starting over

it says permissions denied

 

[D13]

it says permissions denied

try running from the start while having your screen on the whole time and if something pops up that says allow click it

 

[n0m0n]

I have the screen set to be on

 

[n0m0n]

Its good up to exploid

 

[D13]

I have the screen set to be on

Then as good as I see it for people to root the adb way if nothing is really working just go with easy root. Sorry I couldn't be more of a help. I am going to try to find the answer though

Downloaded Easy Root,
Installed,
Entered email and key.
1 minute later told to reboot,
and done.

Rooted.

GREAT to have all my old tools back!!!!!

So there is nothing different between easy or manual other than an experience?

Yes, no difference
I am sorry it didn't work out doing it manually.

Not a problem you just wanted me to learn it the manual way but I got so far so I did learn a bit.

Thanks
