Has Anyone Rooted OTA Gingerbread on Droid 2 w/Pete Souza's D3 Utility? ( Pete's DROID 3 Page )

It says it's known to work on Droid 2 Global, but I don't want to assume that necessarily means Droid 2 (A955).

I used the Linux version to root my Droid 2 Gingerbread. It works great!

Yes indeed and I had to use pc mode to get it to run..there is a vid a kid did (lol) and someone posted it...I watched it and my phone wouldn't work until I put in pcmode...darned kid..lol but he was on d3 don't know why it would be any different....

My D2 is miles ahead of me running Cm7GB(OTAkernel)

And yes it says on the link I read that it does work on global, in fact it didn't say d2..lol
Meaning non global d2..it said d2global for sure and of course it worked for me but in pcmode...!

I can't get it to work I have a droid 2 (not global). Pete's one click just says 'searching for the phone' even when I have it connected with USB.
I have tried to do it with USB debugging on and off.

Maybe its looking for a droid 2 glbal rather than a plain Droid 2?

I also have failed with z4root - which worked fine for android 2.2 but not with the new 2.3. It just hangs or 'force close' when I try to root with z4


HELP !!!
thanks

I used the adb method, worked flawlessly. Mark, make sure you have the moto usb drivers installed, or else your computer won't recognize the phone.

Got this to work on my Droid 2 Global. But I can't find a wireless tether app that works. Anyone have or know of one that works?
