i have a droid 3 with 2.3.4 ive downloaded and unzipped and made a new folder on my computer for petes motorola root tools but on step 3 it always says error abd not allowed by local bypass or something like that. i have the drivers installed and i put bebuging on and charge only but it never roots. so what am i doing wrong?

The method used in Pete's tools to gain root no longer works. Use the method known as "Motofail" instead. This one will still root the Droid3.

You can find Dan Rosenberg's Motofail method here: http://vulnfactory.org/blog/2012/02/11/rooting-the-droid-4-a-failed-bounty-experiment/

The site mentions that the exploit is for the Droid 4, but it roots the Droid 3 as well. I have used both the windows and the Mac versions successfully.
