Root on the newest 2.2.1 update

i was going through the steps of flashing and after about 5 mins it failed with a Phone[0000]:error getting subscriber unit.device API error0xE0030009 command RQHW(0xE0831009)
but since its so late if you dont mind picking this up tomorrow at somepoint in the evening i would appreciate it at your conveinience
 
I'll pick it up later. My apologies on the delay in responding; I had something I had to take care of and it took a lot longer than I'd expected.
 
Oh, and apparently there's a fix for that error. You have to uninstall RSD Lite and the drivers. To do that, you'll need this app installed;

http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles/Support/Experiences/Global_Drivers/USB_Drivers_bit_4.7.1.zip

Use that to clean the drivers out (it's an option on the bottom left). Now, having uninstalled the drivers and RSD Lite, reboot the computer. Reinstall the drivers using the app you just installed to clean them out, then RSD Lite, now try it all over again. If we still get errors at this point we'll try something else.
 
i did everything that you said above and it didnt work. it gives me failed flashing process Phone[0000]: Unable to retrieve RAM downloader

i dont know if its me or the phone but im about to send my phone to you
 
Hello furbear,

i just got interested in rooting my droid so i can use the wifi thether app..

i have firmware 2.2.1

Build: FRG83D

can you also walk me through it?
 
SuperOneClick will root FRG83D, yes. So will link 2 in my signature, which I recommend as getting familiar with RSD Lite is a good thing, and having SPRecovery instead of the stock recovery is also a good thing just in case you ever want to try a ROM or anything.

Use the tethering app from my signature and not the one from the market as the one in my signature is the latest version and the one on the market is months old. :)
 
hey again,

im having issues with (Multiple phones - Root them, unroot them) step 2 option A. I downloaded the app but the when i type in the blue commands they won't work for me.. :(

step 2 option C: i get stuck when u open Droid.Co_Downloader...

i would like to do step 2 option A but i would need some help from you to understand how to input the commands on ndroid Terminal Emulator.
