Hi all,
One button root is available over at xda developers thanks to the awesome work of xda member alephzain, it worked for my VM Samsung Galaxy S2 on FL26.
I signed up here to let you know about this. Its been around for a week or two but I haven't seen it talked about here.
I had a few problems with the exploit due to old-timers disease, in my haste I didn't check usb debugging and out of habit after I installed the app by using the down load QR I unchecked install from unknown sources.
I had to do a factory reset to get back into the phone (froze at lock screen on initial reboot I think because usb debugging not checked?).
When I got into the phone Superuser was installed. With my Moto Triumph one button gingerbreak the Superuser app installed showed you were rooted.
But to be sure because of all the self inflicted wounds I unrooted and cleaned up the phone to start over from scratch.
usb debugging check
install from unknown sources check
Downloaded and installed to the phone via the QR code
started the app
used the frodo exploit
Presto!!! instant root!!!
I can't post a link because I'm new here but this is the url.

Use at your own risk, you may have to factory reset but I think that was due to my senior moment.
Enjoy
