Droid x root problem

[shaggykid]

Okay so I am having major problems trying to figure out how to root my phone..

I have a Droid X

System version 4.5.605
Android version 2.3.3

I DO NOT have a computer to use and no way to get to a library to use one. So if that's your answer just don't bother posting.

I tried the z4root method to no success.

And when I used my friends computer I tried Motorola one click root technique to no success...

Also all the times I've tried to download the driver files or really any files that a certain way requires the download is unsuccessful.

Am I just a moron or what?

No... you'll need a computer to root because the exploit...

OK well I finally got it to work.. I think.. nothing seems different. How can I check if it was successfully rooted?

Do you have super user in your app drawer?
You can also get root checker from the market

To remove bloat you need a system app remover from the market...
And to change file names you need a file browser with root access

Post script: to use terminal emulator with root access... Type in su then hit enter..

I've never used astro... So not sure there... I use ghost commander....

And a good tool to get is root tools by jrummy... You can remove bloat and so much more
