HOW TO ROOT Droid 2 - IN DEPTH TUTORIAL

Ok for some reason I absolutely cannot root my phone using the z4 method. And I tried to do the doroot and I just can't seem to figure it out. I am a newbie so please bare with me. Getting super frustrated and about to say F it. I have rooted my phone before using the "easy 1-2-3" method. But that is a lot of work. Wanted something easier. Any suggestions?

Hi everyone,
I have a Droid 2 that was rooted with Z4Root 1.3 months ago. I also have SetCPU, SuperUser and Titanium Backup. No custom ROMs installed. Big Red just pushed down GB, and of course, I've lost root access. I'd like to regain root again without losing any contacts, Handcent messages, etc. I've read on several forums that the D2 can be rooted just like the D3 with a simple "one-click" operation. Please see [ROOT] Droid 3 root instructions (One Click added for Windows/ Linux/ OSX))

Any opinions or experience with this? I greatly appreciate any and all assistance!

I am new to rooting but hopeful it may help with my situation. I have a Droid 2 and the ribbon cable recently broke connecting the screen. The phone is working, but I cannot do anything with it. I would like to recover some data from my mileage tracker app (milestrak) that the developer of the app told me is located in the android protected area. Is it possible to root my phone and get access to this or am I better off trying to replace the ribbon cable? I have already replaced the phone so not that concerned about saving it, just need the data.
