Bionic build 5.9.901....Initial impressions......and what we know so far

[badhabit]

So how do I "forever root" since Im allready rooted? Do I just find the link for forever root and run the program then and it will install OVER my current "root"

If anyone is wondering if this update is legitimate. See the following...

My only question would be if they are going to add anything to the final OTA update.

You have multiple options in the program. One option is to just Forever Root as opposed to Root and Forever Root. Forever Root just makes it permanent for lack of a better word.

They can't know... They are now required to keep us in the update path. If they make a change we will have to be updated to that change.

O.K. found it...Since I am already rooted running this program will not cause a problem right? I made a backup just a little while ago with bootstrap.

Alright I downloaded the file on to my desktop computer....But the extracted file has no file named " R3L3AS3DRoot.bat "
The instructions said "Double click the file R3L3AS3DRoot.bat for windows, MotoRooter.sh for Linux, or Mac-MotoRooter for Mac OS X in the folder where you extracted the zip."

There should be 15 items in the folder... What do you have?
