Hi All,

Is there a safe way i can root my verizon droid running 2.3.4 and system vrsion 4.5.621. I thought i read that rooting this version was blocked and i also read that flashing back to an older version that is rootable will brick my phone. I was wondering if there was a way to root this phone.??


Thanks!
 
I am having the same trouble as this guy.

When I tried to root via easy toolkit rooting (v4.0)

Code:
---------------------------------------------------------------
              Easy rooting toolkit (v4.0)
                   created by DooMLoRD
        using exploit zergRush (Revolutionary Team)
   Credits go to all those involved in making this possible!
---------------------------------------------------------------
 [*] This script will:
     (1) root ur device using latest zergRush exploit (21 Nov)
     (2) install Busybox (1.18.4)
     (3) install SU files (binary: 3.0.3 and apk: 3.0.6)
     (4) some checks for free space, tmp directory
         (will remove Google Maps if required)
 [*] Before u begin:
     (1) make sure u have installed adb drivers for ur device
     (2) enable "USB DEBUGGING"
           from (Menu\Settings\Applications\Development)
     (3) enable "UNKNOWN SOURCES"
           from (Menu\Settings\Applications)
     (4) [OPTIONAL] increase screen timeout to 10 minutes
     (5) connect USB cable to PHONE and then connect to PC
     (6) skip "PC Companion Software" prompt on device
---------------------------------------------------------------
 CONFIRM ALL THE ABOVE THEN
