DMUpdater updated to root Droid 1, Droid X, and EVO 4G within app

question

where do you download the .APK file to, the computer desktop or the Droid? And how do you install it? My desktop doesn't have a program associated with this file to open it.
 
So this is all you need if your stock 2.1? I can just download this, click root, and I'm good?

If so, how do you apply a rom after? (If this is general knowledge, I'll look it up, sorry, just not sure if it's any different)
 
If I do this, what happens if VZ rolls out 2.2 next week? Will I get notified and if I do update it takes me back to stock 2.2, right?

Damn, I don't see how you guys keep up with this stuff. Now that the rooting has been made painless, I wouldn't have a clue as to how to flash a ROM.

I'm just gonna stand pat I guess.
 
Quick question, the post and instructions say that this is an .apk file. But the download is a .zip. Do we have to rename the extension to .apk and intstall via Astro or Linda? Thanks.

Droid X
Stock

1. sprecovery will block it if you hit accept, so no
2. there are many tutorials here on flashing roms :)
 
So will this be updated to work with froyo at some point? Probably the only people that will need to root pretty soon will be people that already took the ota right?

1. yes, in fact it will
2. umm, if you need to root this will work (soon) no matter what.
