I rooted my phone with z4root and it worked fine. I tried on my dads phone (droid x as well) it sat for a few minutes nothing happened so we popped the battery and tried again. This time it sat for approximately 20 minutes. Still stuck in the first screen. If I took the sd card out which has only God knows how many apps on it. Would it work to root the phone that way? Or should we try a different method all together?

Thanks,

i saw something on p3droid's twitter a while back about z4root not working. he recommended the manual droid 2 root method.

Try this. Uninstall z4root then reboot your phone. When it boots up reinstall z4root but before you run it reboot again. When it boots up try to root.

Well airplane mode didn't work. So I guess we'll try the rebooting method. If not then we may try that droid2 manual method. Thanks guys if anything happpens I'll let y'all know.
