I've been trying to root my Droid X for a while now. I started Step 2 option A. I downloaded Astro and Terminal Emulator. I got to step 4 ./rage*.bin but all it says is that it can't be found. I have no access to a computer and really would like to root my phone. I'm so computer illiterate its not even funny. Any idea of what went wrong?

What system version is your phone running now? It can be found under Settings > About phone.

Unfortunately you will not be able to root on that system version. It is fairly new and an exploit has not been found yet.

hi. just got a Droid X for free, did a factory wipe. then i got all the latest updates.

Android: 2.3.4
SYstem Version: 4.5.621.MB810

i went through the steps listed on the OP - not going to copy/paste the whole thing.

Step 2 option A:[/B]
Root your phone without your computer - This would be the path someone on a Mac could take or someone without access to a computer.
This works for the DX and D2 phone, won't work for the D1


anywho. it did not work - i will post exactly where it failed later this evening.
