Hello, tried rooting my phone using the Motofail from DroidBionicroot and when i run the program i keep getting failed busybox and failed to push Superuser apk. Also, when phone rebooted i have Bionic bootstrap on app drawer and no root according to Titanium Backup. Any help?

Make sure you have USB Debugging Enabled, and make sure you have moto drivers.
 
Also make sure you're in Charge Only mode, and if you were previously rooted, you may already have superuser on the bionic, so it may say "failed to push superuser", but still be successful at rooting.
 
I already installed the drivers and checked USB debug, unkown sources checked, phone was set to charge. Also, first time ever attempting to root.

Cool, installed Safe strap correctly. Just wondering if installing a custom rom mainly Eclipse 2.2 would be worth it? I heard that the radios on 902 won't work. Can anybody disprove this?

You heard wrong. Eclipse v2.2 was made for 902 radio. Everything works perfect.
Besides eclipse, you can always play with the ICS ROMs over at droidhive.
Another thing I would use is Titanium Backup...that way all your app data will be saved when switching ROMs.

Yes, i already installed TB. However, i froze the bloatware before i backed up the apos. Would that be an issue?
