After downloading, go to the download folder of your sd card with a file manager. Find the z4root apk and click it then select install. Open your app drawer and z4root should be there. If you're already rooted, you'll need to unroot first.

Yes sir!

And im guessing they had the 2.3.340 update..

Do it the hard way through the command prompt not through one click rooting apps. It's way more fulfulling. I know nothing about rooting ot command prompt but you just have to know how to follow directions and be halfway smart.

I was thinking it was probably a bad download. Make sure you delete the superuser if you haven't already.

I got it install now, seems like I just had to re-download the file..

From the old root? Or after I root?..
I was thinking of doing now, but my battery is at 30%. Should I wait till I have a more significant charge

Edit: as u can see homie, I can't wait to get this done...haha

From the old root. I would recommend at least a 60-70% charge before running anything.
