Root rooting .595

I currently have .595 stock on my dx. I've tried to root it but no luck. I noticed that there were three versions of .595, the dedoxed, odoxed, and stock. I picked the stock so I could recieve the ota once it came out. Well now I've decided that I want to root. What do I need to do to root? Thanks!

I thought gingerbreak worked on 595..... Am I mistaken?
 
I can't get gingerbread to work.

For the rooted. 595, which of the two should a noob like me choose?

If you want to be able to theme then choose the deodexed. Otherwise the Odexed although I've read some have had issues with the rooted Odex for some reason.
 
Doh, nevermind I think you will have to restart over from .340 because you're not rooted thus can't use the bootstrapper to flash atm. My bad...
 
go with the deodexed version that way you can use some of Bouchigo's awesome mods like CRT animation and circle 10% battery mod
 
I was running into the same thing. Ended up going ahead with an SBF back to .340 then all the installed needed to get to .595 deodexed rooted. Only route I could find. Never could get Gingerbreak to work. I'm thinking thats why P3 came out and told folks not to accept the OTA.
 
crap, ok guys, thanks. Where can I find the froyo link? I can just boot into recovery and install it from there right after a factory reset of course?
