Root [ROOT] Photon Rooted - No Dock Needed!

[cyclone5501]

My root problem was solved with the Shabbypenguin one-click method.

Did the last Sprint upgrade and lost my root. Could not re root doing the DOS command route. Was ready to go back to the original factory settings until I found the Shabbypenguin one-click which worked with out issue and I am back again with a rooted phone.

THANKS TO SHABBYPENGUIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i have no idea where to put that photon-torpedo file at all... none.

and I cannot figure out where the heck I'm supposed to punch in the cd c:/root thing either.

i'm not computer ******ed, but I do not know what I'm missing. step one, underwear.... step 2 (blank stare by gnomes) step 3- profit!

I have a qusetion i currently have a motorola photon 4g that i would like to root i also have the HD dock for it as well. My question is when you root the photon will it effect the HD docking station/can you still use the HD docking station? ? #2 is there a rom out there that will change the HD docking station (icons, shortcuts, customization). the reason i ask is i like my docking station and use it fequently but hate the UI on it and want to change it. i want to root the phone for overclocking and deleting bloat apps. if anyone can answer it would help
