RoOoLeR's Guide to ROOT / BACKUP / ROMS for 2.2 OTA

[roooler]

I tried z4root too and it just didnt do anything!

Are you sure that your phone isnt already rooted?/?

I would try to uninstall z4root...reinstall it and then try to root the phone Via z4root..

If that doesnt work.. your best bet is to Root it the Manual way like addressed in this thread.. or else try to get those drivers installed..

all in all.. ill help however i can

I heard they were taking z4root off the market.

I heard they were taking z4root off the market.

There was talk about it, because it was said to be infected with "Malware" however thats just what i heard..

Then again i was told yesterday that the app is in the market and working perfectly.

Do i want to permanently root z4 or do I want to temp?

Ehh honestly man i didn't use z4root to do my device.. can someone chime in on this??

Lol went to the market and it is now gone today.... You have the instructions to manually plug in all the numbers and goods?

So its off the Market but those that have it can still use it? I rooted mine 1-click rootmyx2 method. But still grabbed z4root for the heck of it.

[roooler]

This is a great thread! I'm a 2 day old noob and I just finished rooting and backing up my phone thanks to this thread. Ok now more reading so i can overclock and try putting a a custom ROM on the phone

you can go to xda's website to get z4 root. just google "z4root xda". Keep the app on your sdcard for future use

Can somebody confirm supported/recommended Clockworkmod Recovery for DX as well as ROM Manager? Getting mixed posts on versions working/not working for Nandroid Backup/Restore. Thanks!

Hopefully i answer your question(s) -

- Koush's DroidX BootStrap is the ONLY WAY to flash Clockwork onto the DroidX.

- ROM Manager does work on the DroidX however it CANNOT flash ClockWork onto the DroidX.. It can still flash ROMS.

- When making a Nandroid Backup Via - Bootstrap -> Clockwork it is recommended that you rename your backups. When Renaming your backup DO NOT put spaces in the file name.. this has been known to cause a Error, when trying to restore them.

Like i said i hope i answered your questions. I have had a long day, and am sort of confused when trying to interpret your question(s)
