davpx.com/node/16
then just put the droid-root update.zip file (rename to update.zip on the card)

Did you make a backup? You should be on the 2.1 kernal if you got 2.2 from rom manager.

If you havent updated to the 2.2 OTA you shouldnt have any problem using the 2.1 SBF as far as i know.

Anyway to root a fasicnate with android 2.1 without a PC
What OS are you using?
For Mac there's a nice simple write up over at Android Central
http://forum.androidcentral.com/fascinate-roms-hacks/34188-rooting-using-mac-video-tutorial.html
You'll have to use Heimsdall to flash CWM though or get VMWare or something to use Odin...
If it's linux..some searches around XDA should give you a good start
Use an app called z4root. I can't find it on the market but it is on applanet
Haven't used it myself but my father did on his fascinate and apparently it worked famously

it works, it's how I rooted.
you should install titanium backup afterward if you want to get a good copy of busybox though.

used z4root on my wifes fascinate without a hitch.

I would just quickly like to point out that although z4root will get you root without a pc, you are kinda stuck without having a pc. You won't be able to flash cwm or radios. so no new roms since you won't have cwm

What do you mean wont download. Are you talking about the phone wont download the program or z4 isn't working?
Sounds like he wants to root via the phone only and not use any computer.
I don't think that is possible, sorry.
Yea wont download to the phone like my buddies Droid x but he has froyo and he rooted his without a PC my fascinate still has 2.1 so am I stuck without a PC or 2.2 update to get it rooted

well u finally decided to upgrade to gb using p3s rooted gb i think. i had to sbf back to froyo cause it caused my charging port ti go awol any suggestions? yes i wiped like 4 times including cache and dalvik. but ither than that it looked really nice. and root explorer wouldnt work either...

and also my stock recovery blitzd when on gb... did the rec fix. still blitzd. n e suggestions would be grewtly apreciated. would love to go back to gb
Sent from my DROIDX using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
wow cool no replies ok thx ne way folks. I tried gb again still same issue with root explorer and charging both are still blitzing. at least the stock rec worked this time but whatever... guess no one cares to help me out. well cool n e way. gonna sbf again and just stay on froyo till gb root comes out...
Sent from my DROIDX using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
Yeah, you have to sbf back to froyo before installing rooted gb.
There is an actual guide somewhere I know, google it - I just saw it like a week ago. In a nutshell:
Make sure you have the right files.
You need leaked rooted gb, all the sbf stuff, droid x bootstrap and droid 2 bootstrap, and I think that is about it.
Root current device build.
Install droid x bootstrap.
Make a back up.
Sbf.
Install droid 2 bootstrap.
Install rooted gb leak .596, I prefer deodexed myself but idk...
Use droid 2 bootstrap to restore.
Remove droid x bootstrap from phone, or at least uninstall. Not compatible with gb.
I don't remember if I had to wipe data or cache or dalvik anywhere, last weekend I tried that new apex but didn't care for it and had to sbf and reinstall to get back to .596 myself, so I feel your pain on that. Had to do it so many times I thought I was going to brick for sure, I just kept trying. Eventually I got it right, on like tuesday.
Good luck.
Ps, idk about the not charging thing, sorry.

yea i got everything set up. multiple times. the only priblems i had were root explorer and charging. other than that everything worked great. i will just wait for the gbbreak. thx though

Might re install busybox, or try a newer root explorer, if you haven't tried those things. Also might wanna try reseting battery stats, but there is a recommended way to do it, saw a post on gizmodo a while back.
Good luck
DX 2.3.3
Hi everyone, I been reading on this forum for a quiet some time now but never felt the need to create an account to post any questions. because i always find informative threads that help me solved my problems but not this time.
i been helping my friend to tried to install a custom rom on his D2, i wouldnt say im very experienced, but i have done it to couple other phones including a droid x so im kind of familiar with what to do.
so i rooted it, bootstrapped, using rom manager to install cwm, then bootstrapped to cwm recovery, from there wipe data / cache, then install zip from sd.
i tried with cyanogen mod first, but it didnt work, it would get stuck on the m logo after rom is installed, so i sbfed it and repeat the whole process and installed the liberty this time but same thing happened again, so i repeated the whole process again and i tried liquid smooth just now, and it still didnt work.
is there something im missing?
You need to make sure the phone is on gb. Also wipe data/cache/dalvik once before you flash and twice after.

so it has to be 2.3 and above? the system say its 2.2 right now, but the sbf file i used its "vbz a955 2.3.20_1ff" so i assumed it was on gb. is there specific version of gb i need to upgrade to?
thanks for the suggestion
To flash cm7 or any gingerbread rom you have to first be on the ota 2.3.3
Sent from my DROID2 using xda premium
ooohh thanks! whats the best way to update to 2.3.3? do you have a link? all the links i see is for 2.3.0
thanks alot hope if works
The best was to update is to sbf to stock 2.2 then accept the ota update. Then once you update you can root, bootstrap then install cm7.

just follow the guides and you will be fine..
some apps need rooted phones to work properly so you need at least to root your phone then you are fine...

Downgrade from 2.3.5 back to 2.2.2
1) Download U8800 V100R001C00B138SP04 (Overseas General) Android 2.2.2 from HERE.
2) Extract the "dload" folder and copy it (along with its contents) to the ROOT of the SD Card.
3) Turn on your U8800 while holding [VOL-] and [VOL+] and the Android 2.2.2 install should start.
4) Once finished you should be back to 2.2.2.
5) If you phone does not boot correctly power on phone while holding [VOL+] to boot into recovery and Reset to factory defaults.
6) Delete the "dload" folder from the SD Card.

Btw when i upgraded to 2.3 i used this one here and it went pretty smoothly.
Well now i installed Aurora 4.1 how do i install the update 1a now? Also i have Saunalahti how do i do that with the connectbot? Didnt really understand it :S Calling is working atm i think.. but mobile internet doesnt
Download connectbot and open, Click ssh left side bottom and select local and use a nickname when the terminal opens type
su
setprop persist.eons.enabled 0
And reboot.
To install update 1a just flash it with cwm.
I tried the connectbot but do i have to save it somehow after i wrote that or just home and reboot? Also i've checked my APN settings they are as they should for Saunalahti :/ Got an R over my signal idk if im roaming :/ im at home internet wont work *_* Im on Aurora 4.1 atm u think it would help if i flashed 4.1 update 1a?
You can try but since you had this prob from the official update you better try reinstalling the official again
Also try this see if your net connects when you turn on data roaming if it does that means you are on roaming some how
Sent from my U8800 using xda app-developers app
umm what official should i try then? Im from finland so.. Is it just to do the exact same thing as when i upgraded from 2.2.1? Or do i need to go back to 2.2.1 first or sumfin like that?
first try a master reset if not helpful then just try doing it without downgrading if that doesn't work try it with a different official update and if that too doesn't work then try downgrading and upgrading again.
How do i do a master reset? Also i saw the downgrade guide on that root ,CWM etc.. but the link is dead
settings>backup&reset>Factory data reset
