I just got the Droid Pro and hate paying verizon extra money to tether. Has anyone figured out a way to tether the Pro without Verizon's extra charges? I know some phone can be rooted.
Thanks!

Z4root is compatible with the droid pro, no sbf though so root at your own risk :)

Didn't see it on xda but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Been rooted for a couple of weeks. Bootstrapped with Koush's Droid 2 Bootstrap to boot into Clockwork Recovery. Love it but wish there was another way to unlock the darn bootloader. I kinda miss being able to reflash my own phone. Might get another line and use that phone (DROID) on it.

Bootstrapper doesn't "unlock" the bootloader, it works alongside it.

Thanks!

Download a free app called EasyTether Lite

This will allow you to tether the phone to the computer (without rooting and Verizon Charges) via USB.

You wont be able to access some secure websites without paying for the full version.

If you root your phone, you can download an app called Wireless Tether, and turn your phone into a wireless Ad-hoc network that most computers, and some phones and devices can connect to.

So you could CONFIRM that the DX/D2 Bootstrapper works 100%???? If so...im able to bootstrap then reboot into recovery, make a backup, and reboot and try and root it with z4?

Anyone that has used the Z4root, can you set up a temp root and install like Root Explorer to rename the files you don't want and reboot and lose root and still have the files renamed? Then do a temp root and rename back and do a restart and lose root say if a new update comes out?
