I just SBF'ed back to stock froyo and i installed Z4root and its stuck on...
"Running exploit in order to obtain root access..."

I have uninstalled the app and reinstalled it to no avail..

Any fixes? Never had this problem before....

I've had it back in the past where I've had to reboot and then run Z4 a 2nd time on Froyo.

How long are you letting it run? Sometimes would take a few minutes if I recall.

5 min...

EDIT:
Finally decided to go onto my SD and delect my previous apk file.
Maybe it was a bad file but i used it 2 weeks ago?
IDK, i deleted it and re-downloaded from XDA...

I have superuser so Im good to go :)
Thanks for everyones advice. I guess it was the .apk file???
 
What I do when I freshly install sbf 2.3.340 is install z4Root, reboot immediately, run z4Root. If I do this, it always works the very first time and it only takes about 30 seconds or so for z4Root do do its thing.
