    Can't root!

    So when I try to flash the downgrade zip file, it tells me "main version is newer". That's it haha...

    Any ideas?

    That so figures, it works as soon as I post for help....

    Got it guys, if you have this problem, download the updated root.zip from [Updated: 3/26]Easyroot + S-Off [Version 1.6.3.11] - xda-developers

    here, assuming this is how you're rooting (it's the "automatic" method) and restart your computer, disable fastboot in your Thunderbolt's application settings... Also have the most up to date files updated via SDK manager in your Android SDK folder... Idk which one of those fixed the problem for me, but one of em did it haha.
