did you flash the OTA .893? If so you can use this [ROOT] R3L3AS3D W/FOR3V3R ROOT V1.0 LINUX/WINDOWS (Get ROOT after 893 OTA OOPS) - RootzWiki

If you still have the original release you can use this. One-click fastboot restore and root for the bionic v2.1 - RootzWiki

You will find your version under setting-about phone system version it will be either 5.5.893 or 5.5.866

This works ^^. Dhacker updated the file to include a few strings that helped fixed some issues me and a couple of others were having. I couldn't do forever root before .893 OTA so I decided to the opposite and flash .893 then root it. Works fine and I have root

Neither of the above options are working. Keep getting a "not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

 

[OutOfPhase]

dumb question, do you have debugging enabled?

 

[amageus]

Could you give us more detail as to what procedure you're using and where the error pops up? Sounds to me like there's a command that isn't running properly in the script.

Since you're already updated to .893 you're only option is to used r3l3ased. As dfib pointed out you need to make sure that you're phone is set to debugging mode and make sure that the usb is set to charge only. The current version of r3l3ased is v1.1 as of last nite. I had problems with v1.0 but it was fixed last nite. Makes sure that you extract all the files in the zip into one directory and just run r3l3asedboot.bat. It's a simple one step procedure. Follow the instructions carefully on the screen. If you encounter any errors copy and past the script on the screen. It's all DOS based so you should be able to highlight copy and paste.

This is what i get when running this program...USB is set to charge only and USB debugging is also on..Phone system version is 5.5.893.XT875.Verizon.en.US. Android version 2.3.4. Build number 5.5.1_DBN-62.............Im pulling my hair out here...NEED HELP

It is basically saying that adb is not in the folder it is looking for it in. The downloaded file might be bad. try re-downloading and running it again
http://th3oryrom.com/COMPILED/R3l3AS3DRoot_Windows.zip

 

[amageus]

yep what dfib said. make sure to extract all files from the zip. dont run the program from inside the zip. its trying to access all the files but they arent found.

 

[tbone1319]

Ok so I re-downloaded the files and it worked like a charm. Dont know what happened when i flashed the first time but o well all is good now. Thanks for the help!!!!

 

[OutOfPhase]

Glad you are back on track.

 

[almahix]

I am not having much luck. I have tried the fastbook that I used originally and the new R3L3AS3DRoot. Both restore the stock sytem and wipe cache, the immediately reboot, and the phone wants me to setup goggle etc. I press any key in the script to root, but it the scripts just sit there doing nothing. I cannot root, so I cannot load TiBu to restore my roms etc.

I am getting realoly annoyed. This whole thing started because of the freaking BSOD.

 

[johnlgalt]

Weird. have you tried to just manually root it yourself, instead of going these other one click / fastboot routes?

If you use the Method to completely restore your phone to pure stock, like it was when you first bought it, after that you should be able to root again....

The only root tool I know is Pete's which is run in Fastboot. I tried it, but it just says it is waiting for the phone, which is plugged in.

When running either stock/root scripts, it downloads system and erases data and cache, then says to wiaur for reboot, and warns it could take a minute. The phone boots, but the rooting part of the script doesn't wait for the reboot.

Help me, I am stuck with a stock bionic. Yuck!

After several tries, computer reboots, and rereading JohnGalt's post several times (as a sedative) I was able to get Pete's root program to work. I then was able to run titanium backup to reload all my stuff from the sd-ext, reload the bootloader, and reflash my trusted Th3oryRom. All is well. Am am going downstairs and have a beer. John, thanks for being there to talk me down! If I ever have the good fortune to make your acquaintance up close, I owe you a beer. Or a case!

 

[johnlgalt]

All good bro - glad it finally worked out for ya.

have that beer for me, will ya!
