One Click root w/2.2.1 frg83?

I can never get RSDLITE to detect phone

For some reason RSDlite never detects the phone. Drivers are installed and PC acknowledges that it is connected. I can access the phone from the PC, but it is never detected by RSDlite. Perhaps related to why oneclick is having problems. After I experienced this before I used soup to root and it worked fine. I am hoping they get a version soon for 2.2.1.

If anyone has experience with RSDlite not detecting devices and how to resolve I am very interested.

Thanks.

 

When you have your phone in the bootloader screen and plugged into the PC what does rsdlite say?

 

If RSDLITE shows anything on the bottom half of the screen then it has found your phone. click the button on the top right of RSD that has a lot of little dots on it....find the sbf file that you have unzipped select it then follow direction from there

 

No luck with RSDlite, but got superoneclick to work!

I tried RSDlite in bootloader, no luck. I tried using a different USB port on my laptop, no luck.

I tried the different port with superoneclick and it instantly found the device and seems to have rooted it fine with no problems.

In short, try a different USB port, it might work for those with problems. Perhaps I have a touchy cable or something. Interesting that superoneclick worked but still no luck with RSDlite, but who cares!

 

Glad you got it rooted , the reason I was asking what it says is...the first time I used it I thought it wouldn't find my phone either because it really didn't say anything on the bottom besides...connecting....? i think, so I jsut went ahead and loaded up the .sbf file and it took it...anyway glad you got it running!!!

 

I will have to try a different port and see if I can get superoneclick to work.

 

You need RSD Lite 4.6 and up to work with the Droid 1.

 

That is what I am running

RSD Lite v4.6 Mult-Flash / Multi-Flex

MDS-SDI

 

Do you want a custom recovery image fixed on your phone now that it's rooted? I have instructions for that.

 

Need Update.zip for stock recovery

For my new phone I am using Rom Manager and now have it all tweeked out the way I want it.

For my old phone, I have a problem. It will only go into the bootloader screen during NORMAL power on or the recovery mode if I hold the 'X' key. This is why I have a warranty replacement. It had been working for many many months fine then something happened. (I checked the D pad key is not stuck on).

the problem is the recovery mode it goes into is clockworkmod, making it rather obvious I have tinkered with things. I would like to restore it to stock recovery but my only option I have is to update.zip from SD card. Can I do this to restore to stock recovery?

Thanks.

 

can someone point me in the direction to root 2.2 using rsdlite.....ive done it a bunch of times but its been a while and just need a guide just in case. I gotta fix my buddies phone he just got a replacement

 

Can you install the stock 83D or 22D update.zip? If not, just flash a stock SBF and be done with it.
