Is there a way to root a Droid Eris without any service on the phone [making it unable to get to the screen to mount the phone as a usb device]?
My wife upgraded her phone to the HTC Thunderbolt months ago, and we were going to put her Eris on Craigslist.. but I feel bad that the stock Android 2.x from the OTA update made this phone a buggy POS... so I figured the least I could do was root it before selling it.
Any help would be appreciated! I want to avoid temporarily having to activate it just to do this, and then reactive my phone afterwards.

Seriously.. after posting this my brain started to semi-function and I thought '...just put the card in the computer, put the files on the card, and then move it back to the phone...'. Needless to say I can't delete this thread, so, my apologies for littering the forum!
